<h2>AST: Chapter 28 – The Line between Life and Death.</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<hr/>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Huh?” Qing Shui inclined his head in surprise, and swiftly after, his expression changed drastically for the worst. A gargantuan shadow blotted out the sun and skies as it savagely zoomed towards him. The might of the wind force generated by the flapping of those huge wings was tremendously powerful, to the point where the huge rocks weighing a few hundred jin on the nearby ground were also chaotically rolling about, as if they were bereft of gravity.</p>
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui immediately channeled his inner Qi down towards the soles of his feet, rooting him to the ground. The stone hidden in his right hand was also charged to the brim with the circulated Qi from the Ancient Strengthening Technique.</p>
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui flicked the stone towards the gargantuan body of the huge flying beast and in the same instant, also executed the Ghostly Steps, speedily retreating to some distance away.</p>
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui decided to target the heart of the flying beast. He knew that with only such a small stone as a weapon, there was no way for him to deal huge amounts of damage to the beast; he would at most only be able to slightly injure it. The only solution left was to target the critical weak spots.</p>
|
||||
<p>“Xiu!” The stone created a terrifying sound as it soared through the air, with a speed so fast that it was almost to the point of breaking the sound barrier.</p>
|
||||
<p>“eEeeEKK!” a ear-piercing sound screeched out. Hints of undisguised humiliation and rage filled the cry as the gigantic creature retreated back to the air.</p>
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui knew that he had missed the heart of the beast, but looking at the blood showering down, akin to the squirting of a fountain, he knew that at the very least, he had managed to injure it.</p>
|
||||
<p>The current Qing Shui had already retreated to a safe distance away as he took the time to identify the flying beast soaring through the skies. Upon closer observation, Qing Shui was incessantly astonished! The wingspan of this bird was approximately 30-40m wide. The head was similar to a eagle and condor. Its whole body was covered with inky black feathers with only a patch of white on its head.</p>
|
||||
<p>“3rd Grade Desolate Beast, White-headed Inky Jade Condor!” Qing Shui breathed. He had finally identified the gargantuan flying bird.</p>
|
||||
<p>Since that time Qing Hai explained the various professions in the Continent of the 9 Provinces to him, Qing Shui did some light research on the beast tamer profession, and also on the descriptions of the various beasts that inhabited this world.</p>
|
||||
<p>There were a total of 4 levels of beasts. Wild < Ferocious < Desolate < Demonic. And each level could be split into 9 grades. In total, the ranking system for beasts could be ranked from 1st Grade to the 36th Grade. The White-headed Inky Jade Condor in front of him was of the 21st grade, no wonder the aura it emitted was so terrifying.</p>
|
||||
<p>Only desolate beasts who had formed a demonic core would be considered to have stepped into the realm of demonic beasts. Even the weakest amongst the demonic beasts had strength comparable to a cultivator of the Xiantian realm. The longer the demonic beast had lived, the stronger it would be, the disparity in strength between each grade at the demonic level could be comparable to the difference between Heavens and Earth!</p>
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui looked at the White-headed Inky Jade Condor hovering in midair, that gargantuan body was incomparably huge, just the size of the it’s leg could be comparable to the girth of a fully grown human male.</p>
|
||||
<p>He remembered reading in the books he researched previously that the White-headed Inky Jade Condor was prone to nursing grudges. The injury that Qing Shui caused it to suffer earlier was just a small matter. What matters here was the injury Qing Shui had caused to it’s pride! From the cold and evil glint in the White-headed Inky Jade Condor’s eyes, Qing Shui knew that the bird would never give up on him, not unless one of them died. It was just waiting for an opportunity now to catch Qing Shui off his guard.</p>
|
||||
<p>Transferring the stone in his left hand to his right, Qing Shui determinedly stared at the White-headed Inky Jade Condor. Maybe, it was the stone in Qing Shui’s hand that gave it pause and forced the giant condor to act out of caution. Earlier in that exchange, the condor could feel an unnatural strength infused in the stone that injured it. Once bitten, twice shy. Now that it knew of Qing Shui’s strength, it did not want to rush in blindly and possibly suffer injuries or death due to a moment of impulse!</p>
|
||||
<p>Licking his parched lips, Qing Shui felt a great thirst bubbling up from inside of him. He had not drank any water for the past three days. In these three days, there weren’t even any traces of other flying beasts! Now Qing Shui knew why… it was probably because of this huge condor in front of him. The condor must have been the predator that scared everything away.</p>
|
||||
<p>This can’t carry on, he needs water to sustain his life. If there were other beasts around, he could still drink their blood for sustenance. Coldness flashed in his eyes, “ Very well, it seems like today no matter what, I have to think of a way to ensure that this giant condor would not escape.”</p>
|
||||
<p>Despite its huge size, it seemed to be like a fish in water when it was in the air. There was no deterrence to its speed! The aura emitting from it was tyrannical beyond measure, possessing herculean strength, it’s condor claws could split mountains and crush rocks. There was also the pair of jet black wings, being struck by it would be akin to disintegrating into piles of dust. Also not to neglect the beak of the White-headed Inky Jade Condor, a single peck would be sufficient to split a human-being into two.</p>
|
||||
<p>What a majestic presence, what overwhelming strength. Rivulets of sweats were flowing down Qing Shui head, as he was contemplating how best to gain victory against the condor.</p>
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui was somewhat nervous, but he was not afraid. Not being able to gain victory today would only mean that it was his destiny to die here. “If I can’t even prevail against a single desolate grade flying chicken, why am I still alive? The promises I made to mother was all just words filled with empty air?”</p>
|
||||
<p>“F*** your mother, this damnable bird is freaking annoying. If you want to fight, get down here and I will be happy to accompany you to the gates of hell. If you don’t want to, just F*** OFF! Why the F*** are you hovering in the air?!” Qing Shui cursed.</p>
|
||||
<p>However, it seemed that Qing Shui’s cursing was ineffective.</p>
|
||||
<p>After a while, Qing Shui knew that this was not the solution, he could not stand there like an idiot enabling this feathery bastard to anger him to death!</p>
|
||||
<p>After thinking for a short while, Qing Shui decided to lie flat on the ground. The remnants of the crumbled 100 jin rocks had been swept clean by the gale force generated by this White-headed Inky Jade Condor when it first swept in to attack Qing Shui earlier. However, in the same instant as he lay down, he also stealthily crumbled a part of the stone cliff, hiding a small stone in his left hand.</p>
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui closed his eyes, and took a risk. He did not believe that the refinement of his current body with the power of only the 3rd level of Ancient Strengthening Technique would be able to defend against the White-headed Inky Jade Condor’s sharp claws and pointed beak. Those were no ordinary claws or beak, very likely, even if it was Qing Shui, he could not withstand a single blow.</p>
|
||||
<p>Patience, Qing Shui did not lack. The fact that he assiduously spent all his free time in cultivating already proved that his will power was beyond the norm. He could be patient if he wanted to.</p>
|
||||
<p>Time passed as the minutes drifted by, Qing Shui squinted his eyes as he peeped out of the corner of his eyes. His body was tensed up, Qing Shui was prepared to to grasp any opportunity that presented itself to perform a one hit kill!</p>
|
||||
<p>“F*** it, is it even still interested in fighting? F*** its mother, staying in the same position, neither coming down nor flying away.” Qing Shui cursed.</p>
|
||||
<p>Maybe, some God heard Qing Shui’s prayers as his curses were gradually beginning to affect the bird. That white-headed inky jade condor slowly begin to circle nearer and nearer.</p>
|
||||
<p>“This cunning feathered bastard, just wait till I catch hold of it!” Qing Shui muttered hatefully.</p>
|
||||
<p>The White-Headed Inky Jade Condor was no fool, it appears that it was trying to test the waters. Circling closer and soaring out of reach. This continued on for quite some time before it apparently decided to go all in. With a burst of speed akin to lightning, it finally flew towards Qing Shui.</p>
|
||||
<p>This was the moment he had been waiting for! Qing Shui eyes snapped open, as he flicked both stones in his hands, aiming for the eyes of the White-Headed Inky Jade Condor!</p>
|
||||
<p>The distance of 10m was covered in an instant! As he flicked out the stone, Qing Shui curled up his arms and legs, adopting the posture of a rabbit as the Qi from the Ancient Strengthening Technique circulated and infused his body.</p>
|
||||
<p>“EeEKekK”</p>
|
||||
<p>A shrill voice cried out in shock, but the huge body of the white-headed condor didn’t even slow in the slightest. In fact, the speed even increased by a gear!</p>
|
||||
<p>At the critical moment of impact, Qing Shui’s body was akin to a carp leaping out of the water. Gathering Qi in his arms and legs, and borrowing the force of impact, Qing Shui violently made use of his limbs to bounce away. The rebound was incredible, both his arms felt like they were going to break at any moment.</p>
|
||||
<p>Because of that miss, the White-headed Inky Jade Condor was screeching in displeasure.</p>
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui looked down at the red patch blossoming in front of his chest, there was a wound the length of a foot long! Blood was unceasingly flowing out from it. Even though he managed to avoid the full brunt of the impact, as Qing Shui had frantically dodged, the tip of the condor’s claw still managed to pierce his chest. The injury was bone deep! Although he had managed to escape from certain death, he was still inflicted with heavy injuries!</p>
|
||||
<p>Looking at the blood flowing unceasingly from the wound, Qing Shui was shivering from the extreme pain of having his chest sliced open. Feeling bitterness in his heart, could it be that he was really going to lose his life today? In that instant, many things flashed past his eyes, especially thoughts of Qing Yi. Before he left, Qing Shui still repeatedly reassured her that he would take care of himself. He was extremely unwilling to die here just like this!</p>
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui has yet to help Qing Yi fulfil her wishes, he cannot die here. If he is dead, what would happen to Qing Yi? She would be bereft of support, her only flesh and blood taken away from her. Just imagining that scenario happening actually hurts more than getting sliced open. What will happen if others trampled roughshod on her? No, he gritted his teeth, he cannot die here.</p>
|
||||
<p>Despite his will, Qing Shui’s consciousness was starting to get fuzzy, the blood flowing out from his chest dyed his whole body red, and at the same time some of his blood also splashed upon the worn and tattered Yin-Yang Pendant that he always wore around his neck…</p>

<p>They had already gone through with three rounds, getting two losses and one win. Right now, the people taking the stage were also getting increasingly stronger. Even Qing Shui wasn’t very confident now…</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Right now, they were already in a situation where they had two losses and one win. If they were to have another loss, they could be said to have lost all hope. Moreover, the lady on the arena was very strange, so strange that she was very unfathomable.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“I’ll go!” Yan Yueyin suddenly said.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Sister Yueyin, If I’m not mistaken, that lady specializes in spirit energy, especially with that pair of eyes she has… Do you feel confident?” Qing Shui gave it some thought and felt that there was a need for him to remind her.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“I’ll do my best. I guarantee that even if I die, I won’t lose.” Yan Yueyin thought about it before replying.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“I’ll give this to you. Remember, don’t look into her eyes for more than the time taken for two blinks,” Qing Shui said and took out a Violet Jade Phoenix Pendant.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“This?” Yan Yueyin could only sense that this item was very profound and was exuding faint spiritual Qi. Even though this spiritual Qi wasn’t very strong, it was especially rustic with a hidden impressiveness.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Put it on. It’ll increase your spirit energy and protection against spirit energy. It should be of some use. Remember, try to end the battle fast, don’t drag it out,” Qing Shui reminded her seriously.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Right now, no one would underestimate Qing Shui. It was because within one month, they had discovered that Qing Shui’s abilities were terrifying. They didn’t know how strong he was exactly and this made them especially curious about him. They could sense that Qing Shui’s abilities should be related to his forging abilities. He should have came from an ancient blacksmith aristocratic clan and one with a strong aristocrat inheritance.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Thank you!” Yan Yueyin smiled and said seriously.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Are you going to stand on ceremony with me as well? In the future, I’ll still need Sister Yueyin to back me up,” Qing Shui smiled and said, indicating that she could go on.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yan Yueyin nodded and with a flash, flew up to the arena. Neither lady spoke a word. The lady from Yu Clan was clad in black clothes and had a beautiful figure. It was just that she had a terrifying pair of eyes.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yan Yueyin, on the other hand, was mature and charming, giving off such a magnanimous feeling that it felt a little dangerous. It was the danger hidden within smiles. Yan Yueyin took out a dark red colored whip as thick as a baby’s arm, providing a good grip. It was three meters long.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The lady from Yu Clan dressed in black clothes took out a pitch-black staff. However, there was a skull on the top of the staff, making the lady appear to be even more eerie.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui frowned. He felt that this lady was very dangerous and by rights, shouldn’t join in so early. Could it be that there were reasons for this?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Thunderous Bloodthirst!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>With a slight move, Yan Yueyin floated like a wisp of smoke, her dark red colored whip tapped out toward the eerie lady in a straight line.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The lady from Yu Clan swung her bone staff and a dense wall made from white bones appeared before her.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>When Qing Shui saw the lady’s attack, he let out a sigh of relief. This lady’s martial technique was definitely very vicious but her strength seemed to not make the mark. This was also why she was sent out this time around. That phoenix pendant should be having some use.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Pfft!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The bone wall was shattered. However, at this moment, a huge white bone flower bloomed. A strange but faint smell spread out. Even though Yan Yueyin had stopped her breath, she could still sense it and was suddenly struck by dizziness.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>She was very surprised and felt that she wasn’t able to summon her strength. Just as she was feeling helpless, the Violet Jade Phoenix Pendant she was wearing exuded a stream of clear Spiritual Qi, washing away her sleepiness.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>She managed to just barely dodge that white bone flower.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The lady from Yu Clan seemed to be very astonished that Yan Yueyin had managed to dodge her attack. She waved her hand once again and put on battle armor that was like water and yet like white bones. It formed an eerily distinctive difference against her pitch-black clothes. Her pair of dark eyes seemed to be emitting glowing black light.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Many legacy martial techniques came from the ancient times and no matter what kind of martial technique a person practiced, it wouldn’t bring any surprises. It was just like how this lady’s martial technique seemed to be just a devilish martial technique to Qing Shui. Actually, they were the same as people who refined poison. The only difference was only whether a person was strong or weak.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>There were only evil people; there were no evil martial techniques.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This was the lady’s Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui hadn’t expected that her Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation had also reached the second form. Although it seemed as if she had just barely managed to reach this phase, it was still a success and it had increased the lady’s prowess tremendously.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Flower of Darkness!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>With a wave of her hand, a pitch-black flower, that was about one foot in size, shot out toward Yan Yueyin. It wasn’t fast but it seemed as if it could lock onto a target.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yan Yueyin retreated rapidly and concurrently, silver light flashed on her body. She had also activated her Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui was stunned once again. Her Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation was also at the second form. He seemed to have sensed something. When people with strong spirit energy reached the Grade Two State Master level, they seemed to be able to attain the second form of the Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation. However, he couldn’t be sure that this was true.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Right now, Qing Shui understood that Yan Yueyin had the confidence to defeat that lady. She was very powerful.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The black flower continued to follow after Yan Yueyin with terrifying powers.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Bloodthirsty Whip Dance!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The dark red Thunderous Bloodthirst Whip instantly swelled up. It was like a blood red python that was seething furiously, getting increasingly bigger. However, when it came into contact with that black flower, it kept on being corroded.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Although it was corroded, it regenerated very quickly and brought along a surge of blood vapor that was so thick that it seemed as if they were going to turn into liquid. The red colored vapor then formed masses and started spinning into a tornado and dashing out toward the lady dressed in black.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Boundless Darkness!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The lady let out a horrible scream and a stream of black light shot out from her eyes toward Yan Yueyin. Concurrently, a stream of similarly dense black colored vapor that was like flowing water, clashed against the red colored vapor.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Boom!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>With huge explosive sounds, red and black spots splattered out. On Yan Yueyin’s side, she had also destroyed the black flower. Earlier on, she had subconsciously met the gaze of the lady’s black eyes and was stunned. She recalled Qing Shui’s words and quickly turned away. At this moment, she was already dashing out toward the lady, leaving a trail of fiery red whip shadows. It was as if she was walking on an archway formed from fire pythons.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Along the trail of whip shadows, with each step Yan Yueyin took, the aura she exuded would increase. She recalled of Qing Shui’s word to not drag out the battle and to end it as quickly as possible.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Her aura was swelling up at rapid speed and the Thunderous Bloodthirst Whip in her hand had flashed with a hint of red colored thunderbolt. Accompanied by hissing sounds, her whole body was bathed in a red color.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Thunderous Bloodthirst Slash!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Ancient Bones of Ten Thousand！</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The lady didn’t gave up and crazily waved her hand around as eerie looking skeletons surrounded her, forming a distinctive contrast with Yan Yueyin’s blood red color. One of side was a bright red, the other was a pale white!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Break!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yan Yueyin’s Thunderous Bloodthirst Whip suddenly became like a huge fire dragon, sending out a terrifying sound as it brought along a great pressure with it, smashing toward the lady in black as well as the skeletons around her.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Boom boom…</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The world seemed to fall into a state of chaos as the explosions went on consecutively for the time it took to burn half an incense stick. The people outside could only sense the non-stop energy explosions and deafening sounds. They weren’t able to see the actual situation that was going on inside.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>When the darkness in the sky slowly scattered, everyone opened their eyes without blinking, wanting to see who was the last person standing, if both of them were there or if neither of them were there.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yan Yueyin!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yan Yueyin stood there and everyone could see her shaky figure. There were people who were astonished and there were people who were elated… It was only after the old man declared that Yan Yueyin was the winner that she then headed back. The moment she landed, she spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui quickly took out three gold needles, pierced them into her back and said softly, “Sister Yan, please support her and let her stand for a while. She’ll be fine after that. She has been poisoned.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The others seemed to not find Qing Shui’s actions to be unexpected.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Thank you, Qing Shui. If it wasn’t for your jade pendant, I would probably not be able to win and would have died.” Yan Yueyin now seemed to be especially happy.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“You’re still standing on ceremony.” Qing Shui smiled and looked at Yan Yueyin. He didn’t know if it was because she was injured or excited but there was a hint of a flush on her mature and charming face, making her appear to be very feminine.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Four rounds were over and it was at a draw. There were five more rounds but everyone knew that it wouldn’t be easy. However, Qing Shui on the contrary, felt more confident now.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>It was close to noon, so the battles today were considered over and the rest would be continued the next day. This was what both parties had agreed on, to allow them to regroup.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The people from both Yan Clan and Yu Clan left but there were many people still around. They were in discussion and might even stay in the tents nearby and wait for tomorrow’s arrival.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Do you guys think that Yan Clan will win or Yu Clan will win?”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Did you guys see? Yan Clan is having internal conflicts. I heard that Yan Dinglang’s faction wants to be independent from Yan Clan and yet wanted to let the current Yan Clan go into seclusion. They colluded with Yu Clan and the 3rd Prince and thus it’s very bad for Yan Clan this time around. It’s said that they’ll have four rounds that they’ll definitely lose.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“What will Yan Dinglang get out from doing this? This will cause Yan Clan to lose a lot.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Losing a lot would be better than not having a spot for himself. Although Yan Clan’s status in Yan City would plunge, it would at least be better than his current situation. It might be an opportunity for him.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“I think it might not be an opportunity. He might be in trouble when they go back today.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“That won’t happen. I heard that there will be interference from the royal family.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>…</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui as well as Yan Yangchi and the others returned to the Firecloud Blacksmith Store. In all, they were still feeling quite happy as they sat around the stone table in the courtyard, drinking tea.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yan Yueyin was there as well. Although she was still feeling a little weak, it was nothing much.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“It seems like we’ll still have to lose two rounds,” Yan Yangchi sighed. He now knew why Qing Shui had let Yan Yangchen go all out to kill. This had allowed them to know that there was something fishy going on.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Sister Yan, if it’s possible, I’ll fight your battle for you.” Qing Shui smiled and said to Yan Jinyu.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui could sense that although Yan Jinyu should not be weaker than Yan Yueyin, the battle that would be taking place would just be increasingly harder.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yan Jinyu hesitated as she nodded. She trusted in Qing Shui a lot now. She had never felt this way before. She didn’t know if this was a good feeling but she wasn’t used to it.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>That night, Qing Shui took the last Heavenly Secrets Pill in the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal, increasing his physical strength by another one nimbus. The increase in his strength calmed his heart. It should all end tomorrow. However, the ending to one thing might lead to the start of something else.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui felt that he had already gotten himself involved. Right now, he could be considered to be on the same side as Yan Clan and even the Fourth Prince. Before he had absolute power, he needed to be very careful.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>His Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation was already in the mature phase but there were no changes to the strength increment it brought. He didn’t know how much strength other people’s Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation brought them and didn’t know when his Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation would enter the second form.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Seeing that there was still a Mysterious Fruit left, Qing Shui decided to eat it, hoping to gain a breakthrough. Feeling hopeful, Qing Shui ate the last Mysterious Fruit.</p>

<h2>AST 1184 – Narrow Victory, Taking the Last Tianji Pill</h2>

<p>Right now, they were already in a situation where they had two losses and one win. If they were to have another loss, they could be said to have lost all hope. Moreover, the lady on the arena was very strange, so strange that she was very unfathomable.</p>

There were people who were astonished and there were people who were elated… It was only after the old man declared that Yan Yueyin was the winner that she then headed back. The moment she landed, she spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui quickly took out three gold needles, pierced them into her back and said softly, “Sister Yan, please support her and let her stand for a while. She’ll be fine after that. She has been poisoned.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The others seemed to not find Qing Shui’s actions to be unexpected.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Thank you, Qing Shui. If it wasn’t for your jade pendant, I would probably not be able to win and would have died.” Yan Yueyin now seemed to be especially happy.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“You’re still standing on ceremony.” Qing Shui smiled and looked at Yan Yueyin. He didn’t know if it was because she was injured or excited but there was a hint of a flush on her mature and charming face, making her appear to be very feminine.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Four rounds were over and it was at a draw. There were five more rounds but everyone knew that it wouldn’t be easy. However, Qing Shui on the contrary, felt more confident now.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>It was close to noon, so the battles today were considered over and the rest would be continued the next day. This was what both parties had agreed on, to allow them to regroup.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The people from both Yan Clan and Yu Clan left but there were many people still around. They were in discussion and might even stay in the tents nearby and wait for tomorrow’s arrival.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Do you guys think that Yan Clan will win or Yu Clan will win?”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Did you guys see? Yan Clan is having internal conflicts. I heard that Yan Dinglang’s faction wants to be independent from Yan Clan and yet wanted to let the current Yan Clan go into seclusion. They colluded with Yu Clan and the 3rd Prince and thus it’s very bad for Yan Clan this time around. It’s said that they’ll have four rounds that they’ll definitely lose.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“What will Yan Dinglang get out from doing this? This will cause Yan Clan to lose a lot.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Losing a lot would be better than not having a spot for himself. Although Yan Clan’s status in Yan City would plunge, it would at least be better than his current situation. It might be an opportunity for him.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“I think it might not be an opportunity. He might be in trouble when they go back today.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“That won’t happen. I heard that there will be interference from the royal family.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>…</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui as well as Yan Yangchi and the others returned to the Firecloud Blacksmith Store. In all, they were still feeling quite happy as they sat around the stone table in the courtyard, drinking tea.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yan Yueyin was there as well. Although she was still feeling a little weak, it was nothing much.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“It seems like we’ll still have to lose two rounds,” Yan Yangchi sighed. He now knew why Qing Shui had let Yan Yangchen go all out to kill. This had allowed them to know that there was something fishy going on.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Sister Yan, if it’s possible, I’ll fight your battle for you.” Qing Shui smiled and said to Yan Jinyu.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui could sense that although Yan Jinyu should not be weaker than Yan Yueyin, the battle that would be taking place would just be increasingly harder.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yan Jinyu hesitated as she nodded. She trusted in Qing Shui a lot now. She had never felt this way before. She didn’t know if this was a good feeling but she wasn’t used to it.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>That night, Qing Shui took the last Heavenly Secrets Pill in the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal, increasing his physical strength by another one nimbus. The increase in his strength calmed his heart. It should all end tomorrow. However, the ending to one thing might lead to the start of something else.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui felt that he had already gotten himself involved. Right now, he could be considered to be on the same side as Yan Clan and even the Fourth Prince. Before he had absolute power, he needed to be very careful.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>His Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation was already in the mature phase but there were no changes to the strength increment it brought. He didn’t know how much strength other people’s Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation brought them and didn’t know when his Demonic Beast Armor Manifestation would enter the second form.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Seeing that there was still a Mysterious Fruit left, Qing Shui decided to eat it, hoping to gain a breakthrough. Feeling hopeful, Qing Shui ate the last Mysterious Fruit.</p>

<p>The body of the Azuregold Snake was very tough. This was also why it was able to withstand the “torture” brought forth from consuming formidable medicinal pills. If it had been other demonic beasts, it was very likely that they would have died as a result of their body exploding.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>It took a huge pile of medicinal pills. By now, the Azuregold Snake was roughly about four meters long. However, its body was quite thin. It was about the thickness of a child’s arm only, which, across the continent, could only be regarded as a fairly small demonic beast. However, Qing Shui was able to tell how formidable the current Azuregold Snake was.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The Azuregold Snake had no wings and yet, it was able to fly. Whether it was in the ocean, on the land, or in the sky, its movement would not be hindered. Because it had recognized its owner, the Azuregold Snake was quite fond of Tantai Lingyan. For the time being, it seemed that the current Azuregold Snake would still bind itself around its owner’s arm during battles. Nevertheless, it wouldn’t affect its owner’s movements as it mainly followed along their movements. In fact, with the Azuregold Snake’s ability to resist attacks, it could work as armor.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Tantai Lingyan really liked her Azuregold Snake. The moment she extended her arm, the Azuregold Snake would cling onto her arm. However, there were still three meters of its body which were coiled up so that it could still initiate its attacks anytime it wanted.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui remembered that he still had one more Azuregold Snake. Qing Hanye no longer needed it since she had the Poison Dragon King. The Poison Dragon King would turn out to be a powerful existence. Other than that, though back then, the Poison Dragon King had said that there was a time limit to their deal. However, Qing Shui knew that even if he were to kick it away, it would refuse to leave.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Luo Qingcheng also didn’t need it. Her Sun Golden Crow had already grown up. It could be used for both offense and as a mount. It had a great potential. Luo Qingcheng had spent these past few years taking thorough care of Sun Golden Crow. Demonic beasts were the closest partner a human could ever find. Qing Shui took the strength of the demonic beasts around him very seriously.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Muyun Qingge also didn’t need it. Her White Jade Dragon was a pure dragon.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>As for Qin Qing, she didn’t even cross Qing Shui’s mind. Not only did she have the enormous Green Dragon but she also had the Parry Heavenly Fate Treasure Pagoda. In the morning, Qing Shui had helped her raise her strength. She was also at the middle stage of her seventh level of divinity. All of them just made it into the middle-stage. She should no longer have any problems dealing with the people around her area. There should only be very few who could actually injure her.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Eventually, Qing Shui made up his mind to give the other Azuregold Snake to Yin Tong.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The Fox Battle God and the Azuregold Snake could be considered a perfect match for each other. This way, Yin Tong’s strength would be boosted significantly.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>……</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Unknowingly, half a month had passed. Qing Shui had already finished the things which he needed to do. The Imperial Cuisine Hall had people looking after it. As for the Sunset Seaking and Dragon Wolf Palace, it was not easy for even the Great Confucian Empire to look after them. However, the Great Confucian Empire would still be quite influential around the area given that the Sunset Sea King Palace and Dragon Wolf Palace stopped progressing any deeper into the territory.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Actually, the current Sunset Seaking and Dragon Wolf Palace no longer needed to be taken care of. After all, with the girls’ own strength along with their formidable demonic beasts, if there were no major accidents, they should be able to stand firmly on their own ground.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui wanted to leave this place. The girls, on the other hand, went back to Sunset Seaking Palace and Dragon Wolf Palace respectively. However, Qing Shui left Yiye Jiange and Qing Hanye together. This way, they would have each other to look after. Considering that Qing Hanye was pregnant, he must be all the more cautious.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yin Tong, Lan Lingfeng, Ziche Cha, and Ling Fei all remained in Imperial Cuisine Hall. Currently, there was one more person keeping eyes on them. The Main Emperor of Great Confucian Empire, also known as the Thirteenth Prince. Though he was Qing Shui’s disciple, he still called Lan Lingfeng and Yin Tong as his own siblings.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Before Qing Shui left this place, he felt that he must also return home once. After all, it had been so long since he last went back. Once he departed this time, even he wasn’t sure how long it would be until the next time he came back.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Five Elements Divine Flag!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Husband and Wife Teleportation!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui immediately appeared next to Yehuang Guwu.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>When Yehuang Guwu felt a fluctuation in the aura around her surrounding, she revealed a surprised look on her face. As she found Qing Shui who appeared out of nowhere, she happily leaped into Qing Shui’s arm.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>They were in Yehuang Guwu’s room.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yehuang Guwu could use the Husband and Wife Teleportation to look for Qing Shui. By then, she could also return back to where she came from. It was not true to say that she didn’t miss Qing Shui. In fact, she missed him more than anyone did. However, she didn’t want to break the rules because she knew that once she did it, she would want to do it twice. The Qing Clan needed her. If she left this place and anything were to go wrong, even if she died, she would find it hard to forgive herself.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui hugged the attractive and mature woman tightly.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“I’ve missed you!” Yehuang Guwu said softly.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Those three words made Qing Shui felt a bit guilty. He immediately kissed her, “I miss you too!”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>It had been a few years since he returned. Yehuang Guwu was still the same. The only thing different about her was her strength. She now possessed fearsome strength. Without Qing Shui’s assistance, she had managed to achieve Sixth Divine Grade.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yehuang Guwu’s primary battle technique at the moment was her mutated Tiger Form. White Tiger Divine Grade. Each of them could last for up to four hours and each of their strength was four times her original strength. From here, it could be seen just how dangerous this battle technique was.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui was stunned. Now that he had helped her broke through to Seventh Divine Grade, if she were to condense the eight White Tigers and each of them possessed strength worth around 400 million Dao Force…...</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Damn it…...</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Even Qing Shui found it hard to believe. He immediately brought Yehuang Guwu along and left her room. He hadn’t met his family members yet but he had inquired about things going on with the clan and knew that everything was going well. This was also expected since Yehuang Guwu was here. Though she was at Sixth Divine Grade, her ability to condense eight White Tigers was already daunting enough. It could be said that with her in Qing Clan, Qing Shui had nothing to worry about.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Few years had passed since they last met. She was still elegant like before and was wearing a plain court dress. Though it looked plain, she also looked very tidy as well. She had a very mature face with not even a single wrinkle. Both of her eyes looked moist, but at the same time, were also filled with wise and farsighted wisdom. They were just like the bright moon in the sky.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Just like before, it was still hard to tell her age. She didn’t seem all that old and yet, she was able to give people the impression that she was very mature, making them felt like they were children whenever in front of her.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>There was also a part of her aura. Compared to Canghai Mingyue, her aura was like different tunes that were played with equal skills.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>She had an exquisite figure and was unusually tall. The thing that was the most eye-catching about her was her unusually huge rear and her slender waist. She had two long and straight legs. Her breasts were bulging. Wearing her loose-fitting clothes, it made her all the more alluring. Everytime Qing Shui saw her, he would feel his blood boiling with desires.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>There was a faint sexual desire on Yehuang Guwu’s face. However, both her eyes looked as bright as the moon. It was clear and tranquil. One would very easily lose their mind just by looking at eyes like this. She grabbed Qing Shui’s hands tightly and seemed to not want to let go at all.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Let me bring you to a place and give you a surprise.” Qing Shui smiled and said.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Seeing you here today is my biggest surprise. Nothing can be more surprising than that.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yehuang Guwu’s voice sounded hoarse, or rather, very attractive. It sounded a bit neutral, giving people the urge that they want to hear her voice more. This was how the voice of a mature woman was supposed to be. It was another kind of charisma.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui operated the Nine Continents Step Effect and very quickly, he managed to find a quiet place. Qing Shui helped raise her strength and naturally, that would mean she would have to take her clothes off. Considering they had been away from each other for so long, Qing Shui missed her a lot. Before he raised her strength, they were already stuck together.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Though it was said that absence made the heart grow fonder, they had been separated from each other for too long. Yehuang Guwu was very active. She constantly demanded Qing Shui for more positions and cooperated well with him.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>By the time everything quieted down, two hours had passed.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The Yehuang Guwu was already satisfied and was lazily lying within Qing Shui’s grasp. On her charming face was a breathtaking flirtatious expression.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Following on, Qing Shui prepared himself for the Acupuncture procedures and so on. As he expected, Yehuang Guwu had achieved the middle level of Seventh Level of Divinity. Along the way, what came along with it was her Divine Tribulation.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Compared to the other girls, Yehuang Guwu’s Divine Tribulation was even more demanding. However, she was able to form the White Tigers to help her resist against it.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The Divine Tribulation had made Yehuang Guwu’s foundation even more stable.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>As he observed the current Yehuang Guwu, Qing Shui realized that he was back to how he was before. The reason was that Qing Shui noticed that his current strength, when measured thoroughly, was inferior to Yehuang Guwu’s. However, if he were to get in a serious battle with her, Qing Shui would undoubtedly win. The Parry Heavenly Fate Treasure Pagoda, along with his own personal defensive capabilities, would definitely be able to block the attacks of the White Tigers that were worth around 400 million Dao Force.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui’s speed, body movement, his Sure Kill Heavenly Technique, along with his Nine Continents Mountain… If he were to use all of them with no hesitation, he would definitely be able to fend off against Yehuang Guwu easily.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>At the moment, Yehuang Guwu had managed to condense eight White Tigers with the strength worth of 400 million Dao Force. This caused Qing Shui to start thinking that this was how a Divine Grade Battle Technique was supposed to be. What was even more fearsome was that there was not just one, but eight of them.</p>

<p>“I’ve missed you!” Yehuang Guwu said softly.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Those three words made Qing Shui felt a bit guilty. He immediately kissed her, “I miss you too!”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>It had been a few years since he returned. Yehuang Guwu was still the same. The only thing different about her was her strength. She now possessed fearsome strength. Without Qing Shui’s assistance, she had managed to achieve Sixth Divine Grade.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yehuang Guwu’s primary battle technique at the moment was her mutated Tiger Form. White Tiger Divine Grade. Each of them could last for up to four hours and each of their strength was four times her original strength. From here, it could be seen just how dangerous this battle technique was.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui was stunned. Now that he had helped her broke through to Seventh Divine Grade, if she were to condense the eight White Tigers and each of them possessed strength worth around 400 million Dao Force…...</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Damn it…...</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Even Qing Shui found it hard to believe. He immediately brought Yehuang Guwu along and left her room. He hadn’t met his family members yet but he had inquired about things going on with the clan and knew that everything was going well. This was also expected since Yehuang Guwu was here. Though she was at Sixth Divine Grade, her ability to condense eight White Tigers was already daunting enough. It could be said that with her in Qing Clan, Qing Shui had nothing to worry about.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Few years had passed since they last met. She was still elegant like before and was wearing a plain court dress. Though it looked plain, she also looked very tidy as well. She had a very mature face with not even a single wrinkle. Both of her eyes looked moist, but at the same time, were also filled with wise and farsighted wisdom. They were just like the bright moon in the sky.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Just like before, it was still hard to tell her age. She didn’t seem all that old and yet, she was able to give people the impression that she was very mature, making them felt like they were children whenever in front of her.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>There was also a part of her aura. Compared to Canghai Mingyue, her aura was like different tunes that were played with equal skills.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>She had an exquisite figure and was unusually tall. The thing that was the most eye-catching about her was her unusually huge rear and her slender waist. She had two long and straight legs. Her breasts were bulging. Wearing her loose-fitting clothes, it made her all the more alluring. Everytime Qing Shui saw her, he would feel his blood boiling with desires.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>There was a faint sexual desire on Yehuang Guwu’s face. However, both her eyes looked as bright as the moon. It was clear and tranquil. One would very easily lose their mind just by looking at eyes like this. She grabbed Qing Shui’s hands tightly and seemed to not want to let go at all.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Let me bring you to a place and give you a surprise.” Qing Shui smiled and said.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>“Seeing you here today is my biggest surprise. Nothing can be more surprising than that.”</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Yehuang Guwu’s voice sounded hoarse, or rather, very attractive. It sounded a bit neutral, giving people the urge that they want to hear her voice more. This was how the voice of a mature woman was supposed to be. It was another kind of charisma.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui operated the Nine Continents Step Effect and very quickly, he managed to find a quiet place. Qing Shui helped raise her strength and naturally, that would mean she would have to take her clothes off. Considering they had been away from each other for so long, Qing Shui missed her a lot. Before he raised her strength, they were already stuck together.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Though it was said that absence made the heart grow fonder, they had been separated from each other for too long. Yehuang Guwu was very active. She constantly demanded Qing Shui for more positions and cooperated well with him.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>By the time everything quieted down, two hours had passed.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The Yehuang Guwu was already satisfied and was lazily lying within Qing Shui’s grasp. On her charming face was a breathtaking flirtatious expression.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Following on, Qing Shui prepared himself for the Acupuncture procedures and so on. As he expected, Yehuang Guwu had achieved the middle level of Seventh Level of Divinity. Along the way, what came along with it was her Divine Tribulation.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Compared to the other girls, Yehuang Guwu’s Divine Tribulation was even more demanding. However, she was able to form the White Tigers to help her resist against it.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The Divine Tribulation had made Yehuang Guwu’s foundation even more stable.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>As he observed the current Yehuang Guwu, Qing Shui realized that he was back to how he was before. The reason was that Qing Shui noticed that his current strength, when measured thoroughly, was inferior to Yehuang Guwu’s. However, if he were to get in a serious battle with her, Qing Shui would undoubtedly win. The Parry Heavenly Fate Treasure Pagoda, along with his own personal defensive capabilities, would definitely be able to block the attacks of the White Tigers that were worth around 400 million Dao Force.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Qing Shui’s speed, body movement, his Sure Kill Heavenly Technique, along with his Nine Continents Mountain… If he were to use all of them with no hesitation, he would definitely be able to fend off against Yehuang Guwu easily.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>At the moment, Yehuang Guwu had managed to condense eight White Tigers with the strength worth of 400 million Dao Force. This caused Qing Shui to start thinking that this was how a Divine Grade Battle Technique was supposed to be. What was even more fearsome was that there was not just one, but eight of them.</p>

<h2>Author’s Note:</h2>
|
||||
<hr/>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Upon typing these words, I suddenly feel a sense of emptiness. Four years, <Ancient Strengthening Technique> has taken me four years to complete. I’m very tired yet I feel happy because of the support you readers have given me. Bit by bit, your support has given me the protection to grow to this point. Without all of you, Superfluous (author), wouldn’t have been able to persist up till now.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I don’t know if the ending is good or not. Some may like it, some may not. An author couldn’t possibly satisfy the wishes of everyone. There may be a thousand readers who have a thousand different endings in their mind.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Superfluous has done his best!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Initially, I promised to finish writing this book months ago. But after that, everyone also knows of the unfortunate circumstances that happened, leading to a crackdown. It’s truly a hassle to encounter such a thing.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In any case, I’m still considered satisfied with regards to the results of this novel on the market. Be it the support from you readers or from the website’s workers, I want to thank you all. I’m truly grateful.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Four years...I’ve been writing every single day and night. Sometimes, I can’t even take a break to celebrate festive occasions. Now, my health isn’t as good as before, I suffer from short-sightedness now and there’s a problem with my cervical vertebra.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The speed of my typing can be considered slow, I need about an hour to write roughly 700 words. I’ve been camping in front of my computer for endless days, sitting there the moment once I awake. My child is already four years old since she was born and I’ve not even brought her out once to play yet. You guys might feel that my words are an exaggeration but it is the truth.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The book has ended, the ending might feel hurried but in truth, I’ve finished writing what I wanted to write, it’s meaningless even if I wrote a few more chapters. Maybe, there might be some things that are unaccounted for but this is just like life. There are some things in life where one needn’t account for them too clearly, like passerbys just walking past you in your life.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I apologise because there has been some problems during the middle of this novel such as refreshing the daily updates. I couldn’t take any leave to settle my problems and has to settle for by writing only 2,000 words. It might have affected the will of some readers to continue reading.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><Ancient Strengthening Technique is over. Everything has ended, too much of Superfluous’s efforts were placed in it. Although this is Superfluous’s second book, I still feel that some of the plot is a little soft and immature and I’ve not brought out the potential of the plots to the maximum. But, Superfluous has already tried my best.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I shall end things here. In any case, I truly would like to thank everyone. I’m still thinking about the concept for my new book and will inform everyone once I’ve decided. I hope everyone would still be able to support me!</p>

<h2>Translators note:</h2>
|
||||
<hr/>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>It has taken us roughly 3.5 years of time to finish translating this novel. I agreed with what the author has said, some plots in this novel felt a little too soft and immature, without the explosive endings which could have maximized the potential. But hey, even so, he did his best and I believed that he did grow as an author.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I started this novel alone and I was lucky enough to have much help coming my way.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Translators: Rila, xMyuux, Piangster, Choobcat, Justin, Chloe, Dragoninwhite, Aaron, Demi, Amy, Perseus, Seven7, Shane, Turtleruler, Yota, Zombiegirl. These are people who have helped me at some point in time during the 3.5 years we took to finish translating this novel.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Also, things wouldn’t have been possible without our editors and proofreaders. Although some of the editors are new, they did their best and there was a point in time where we had to re-edit a large portion of our old chapters for a smoother reading experience for the readers and this wouldn’t have been possible without the help of these people. The editors are: Rubble, Sherardia, Tomeking, Cryotic, Edwin, Nora, Maddhattress, Noripixel, Thready. And our resident proofreader: Calofel.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Firstly, I would like to thank all the readers, just the simple act of reading our translation of this novel generated views which kept us going. When we started, many of us were still in school, there were some who was at work and wanted to make some extra money to help with their family expenses as well. Also, special thanks to the readers who supported the project even further by becoming either a VIP now or supported through patreon or paypal in the past! Those were the additional motivation that kept us persisting.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>There were quite a few times where we held contests and I like to thank everyone who participated in them. Some won cash prizes, some won access to advanced chapters and for those who didn't win anything, don't worry we will be planning more of such contests for the new novel.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Lastly, the thing everyone has been waiting for. As promised, the pictures of the characters would be shared at the end of the novel.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Do note that these pictures are not official art endorsed by the author, there were found from obscure chinese novel forums. Not all characters are shown.</p>

|
||||
|
||||
<p>I’m currently looking for my next novel, and I think I’m going to pick a Xuanhuan (Eastern Fantasy) once again. Hope to see the familiar faces in the comment boxes again in the future! The AST Team truly thanks everyone for their support!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>THE END.</p>
