"Dong Ran, Xuan Yue! You deserve to die!"
Qin Hao released a loud roar, throwing his palm forward, shaking the wooden bed until it began to rumble. He then sat up with a loud noise.
When he discovered that it was a dream, Qin Hao released a long breath and slowly wiped away the sweat on his forehead. Suddenly, his originally calm eyes were full of killing intent!
This was not a dream!
How could everything that happened between him, Dong Ran, and Xuan Yue be a dream?
As a peerless genius who had reached the Completion of the Martial Honorables at the age of 18, when he was about to break through to the Half-Saint realm, the two of them killed him in the name of guarding and witnessing his breakthrough. One of them broke through his physical body while the other destroyed his Spiritual Soul. They were so cruel that they did not give him a chance to survive.
After dying in the hands of these two, when Qin Hao opened his eyes again, he shockingly discovered that a thousand years had passed in the Great Void Continent.
A thousand years had passed, two emperors were established!
Dong Ran called him the East Emperor.
Xuan Yue was called the Mystic Emperor.
His former good brother, his beloved woman, had used a great amount of effort to quell the chaos during the Age of Emperor Collapse. They had unified the myriad regions and established the Eastern Mystic Emperor Dynasty. They had become the new ruler of the Great Void Continent!
With the arrival of the two emperors, all the domains united and bowed together.
The two of them had become the legends of the Great Void Continent. The statues of the two of them had appeared in pairs. They were a pair of heaven-made golden children and jade women. It was a legend in the entire cultivation world.
"Is this the result you want? Two emperors have arrived at the court. What a pair of eternal stories! What a pair of adulterouss! How can you do that?"
He had known Dong Ran and Xuan Yue for 12 years, and they were as close as brothers. They had fought with each other for a long time, and they even had feelings for each other. They agreed that when he broke through to the Half-Saint realm, they would have a partner, and their fate would be destined to last for three lifetimes.
The past appeared before Qin Hao's eyes. Whenever he thought of it, the killing intent in his heart would increase by a bit. He clenched his fists tightly, wishing that he could stand in front of the two of them right now and ask them for an answer.
Why!?
"Creak!"
The door was pushed open. A beautiful woman in a purple robe hurried over to Qin Hao. She was a bit worried. "Hao'er, did you have a nightmare again?"
The beautiful woman in front of him was Qin Hao's mother, as well as the Qin Family's Ninth Elder, Zi Feiyan.
His previous self had been weak and sick since he was a child. Five days ago, he had a dispute with a martial artist at the early stage of the Yellow Martial Arts Realm named Qin An. After being beaten hard, he was so angry that he died.
Qin Hao never thought that he could be reborn. When he woke up, he discovered that he had entered this youth's body. What was even more coincidental was that this youth's name was also called Qin Hao.
Qin Hao didn't dislike Zi Feiyan at all. In the past few days, he could feel that Zi Feiyan's kindness towards him was genuine, and that she was taking care of him in every way possible.
In his previous life, he had never seen his own mother. Every time he saw someone else accompanied by his mother, he couldn't help but feel disappointed. The appearance of Zi Feiyan made Qin Hao, who had lost his mother's love since he was a child, extremely satisfied and happy, letting him know what was mother's love.
He didn't even dare to tell Zi Feiyan about his previous self's death, for fear that she wouldn't be able to take the blow.
Qin Hao looked at Zi Feiyan. His eyes gradually became gentle, revealing a sincere smile. "Mother, I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me."
Zi Feiyan sat by the bed and carefully wiped away the fine sweat on Qin Hao's forehead. The worry on her face became even more intense. "This is already the third time. Each time, you will always remember Dong Ran and Xuan Yue's names, and then wake up. Who exactly are they?"
Zi Feiyan looked calm, but her heart was already in turmoil.
Dong Ran, Xuan Yue.
There was no one in the world who didn't know these two names, but she still didn't dare to match the names that Qin Hao spoke of.
Qin Hao slowly said, "Mother, you heard me wrong."
Zi Feiyan shook her head and didn't continue to ask. "Remember, these two are the most distinguished Supreme Masters in the world. They can't be offended. Even if you call them by their names, you will be sentenced to death. If someone hears them, not only you, but also the Qin family may be in trouble."
When he mentioned them, Qin Hao's heart felt as if it was being sliced by a blade. His fingers couldn't help but bend inward. He lightly clenched his teeth and said, "Mother, don't worry. There won't be a next time."
In the future, I will be their nightmare.
I, Qin Hao!
He would definitely kill them both!
When Zi Feiyan saw Qin Hao's expression, she no longer forced anything. After a light sigh, her eyes became sharp as she said coldly, "Hao'er, did Qin An hurt you that day?"
Qin Hao nodded. Zi Feiyan stood up and was about to leave.
"Mother."
Qin Hao stopped Zi Feiyan. He turned over the blanket and struggled to get out of bed. Zi Feiyan immediately stepped forward to support him.
"Mother, you don't have to do anything. I want to get this debt back myself."
"But..."
"Mom, believe me!"
Feeling the power in her hands and seeing the resolute expression in Qin Hao's eyes, Zi Feiyan's heart trembled.
In the Great Void Continent, if one wanted to become a martial artist, one had to inspire one's Martial Soul.
A cultivator's talent was decided by his Martial Soul. A cultivator could sense the Qi of Heaven and Earth and gain a Martial Soul that belonged to him.
The more talented a person was, the earlier he would be able to awaken his Martial Soul.
In his previous life, Qin Hao had inspired his Martial Soul to reach the Half-Saint realm at the age of eighteen.
In this life, he was already fifteen years old, yet he was still unable to awaken his Martial Soul.
There was a huge difference between having a Martial Soul and having a Martial Soul.
Even though Qin An had inspired a low-grade Martial Soul, he was still much stronger than non- martial artists at the early stage of the Yellow Martial Arts Realm.
Even if Qin Hao was extremely lucky to awaken his Martial Soul, he was destined not to achieve much in the future.
In a head-on confrontation, it was impossible for him to be Qin An's opponent.
Zi Feiyan smiled and said, "I believe you."
Zi Feiyan secretly made up her mind. At that time, no matter what the ending was, she would not allow Qin Hao to be harmed again. This was her mother's responsibility.
A moment later, Zi Feiyan went over to instruct the servants to make medicine and let Qin Hao take a good rest.
Only when he was finally alone did Qin Hao begin to carefully inspect this body.
After a few breaths of time, Qin Hao couldn't bear to continue looking. If his body was compared to porcelain, his body would already be riddled with holes. It would immediately break apart upon contact.
The burden caused by his weak body was not only that he could not connect with the Martial Meridian, but also threatened his life. Even if his previous self was not angered to death, he could not live for more than three years like his fragile lifeline.
If it was a newborn baby, the big family would raise him with spiritual herbs. In less than a month, the innate deficiency of the newborn baby would be gone.
In the Qin Family, not to mention the lack of this kind of precious medicine, but also the lack of quite a discerning eye, the First Elder of the Qin Family, Qin Jingshan, who was also a tier nine alchemist, only discovered the strangeness of his body when Qin Hao was ten years old.
But it was too late.
The only thing that parents could do was try their best to extend Qin Hao's life. For this reason, Qin Hao's father had stepped into dangerous places more than once in search of heavenly treasures. He never returned after he left three years ago.
All the burdens fell on Zi Feiyan. Without her father's influence in the Qin family, their mother and son's status was getting worse day by day. If Zi Feiyan hadn't broken through to the Xuan Martial Arts Realm a year ago and become the Ninth Elder of the Qin family, their lives would have been even worse.
Qin Hao's sleepiness was completely gone. He held a moon-shaped jade pendant in his hand, unable to calm down.
This jade pendant was something he had obtained from a forbidden area in his previous life. Unfortunately, he could not unravel the secret of the jade pendant. He did not expect it to appear beside him a thousand years later.
Qin Hao's mind was immersed in the jade pendant. His eyes suddenly flashed with a golden light as the mysterious jade pendant entered the space between his brows.
A memory that did not belong to him was inserted into his mind.
Great Void Sutra!
Qin Hao was ecstatic as he said, "This jade pendant is actually the inheritance of the number one expert in all of history, the 'Great Void God Emperor'!"
There was no doubt that the title of the Great Void God Emperor was the most powerful. Even now, this continent was still known as the Great Void Continent!
"However, the exercises recorded in it can only be practiced to the Half-Saint Realm."
Most of Qin Hao's joy was extinguished. Mortals who cultivated martial arts were divided into nine realms, while the ninth realm was the Half-Saint realm. He only needed to take half a step forward before he could turn the mortal into a saint.
If he didn't become a saint in one day, he would be a mortal after all!
Qin Hao took out the wooden case hidden beneath the bedding. When he opened it, it was a piece of Primordial Stone.
There were many shortcuts for martial arts cultivation, and Primordial Stones were one of them.
There was a large amount of Primordial Qi in the Primordial Stone. After a warrior absorbed it, he could increase the accumulation of Primordial Qi in his Qi Pool to make a breakthrough.
Therefore, the price of Primordial Stones was also one of the essential cultivation resources for martial artists on the road of cultivation.
This piece of Origin Stone was something Qin Hao's biological father bought from Great Elder several years ago in order to prevent Qin Hao's body from worsening.
Right now, Qin Hao was going to use this Primordial Stone to temporarily protect his meridians and open up his 'Qi Pool'.
The first step to become a warrior was not to stimulate the Martial Soul, but to condense the "Qi Pool" in his Dantian.
The so-called "Qi Pool" was a place where Primordial Qi could be stored.
The bigger the Qi Pool was, the more Vital Qi it could gather. With the improvement of cultivation, the Qi Pool would gradually expand and become a Qi Lake or even a Qi Sea.
Qin Hao sat down cross-legged and forcefully grasped the Natal Opening Stone. Surging vital qi flowed into his body along his hand, quickly flowing through his entire body.
For others, it was very difficult to open up the "Qi Pool". In the early stage of the "Qi Pool", with the guidance of the elders, they could avoid many detours. The success rate would be much higher.
However, for an experienced Qin Hao, he didn't need it at all. In just two hours, he had absorbed all of the pneuma around him and successfully opened his 'Qi Pool'.
The experiences of his past life saved Qin Hao a lot of time. Even with the guidance of his elders, it would still take him at least a few days to search and open them.
Qin Hao only used two hours.
"This body has indeed suffered a great loss. It has only opened up an egg-sized Qi Pool. It can't hold much Primordial Qi."
Qin Hao frowned slightly and quickly relaxed. No matter what, opening up the 'Qi Pool' could be considered the first true step towards martial dao.
Next, if he wanted the Vital Qi in the "Qi Pool" to run through his whole body, he had to have a Martial Soul.
Otherwise, in less than an hour, the vital qi of the 'Qi Pool' would be completely exhausted.
Similarly, only by opening up the "Qi Pool" and releasing the Martial Soul could one become a real warrior!
"All of them are indispensable!"
Qin Hao calmed down at the critical moment of enlightening his Martial Soul. In his previous life, his cultivation wasn't complete. On the contrary, his heaven-defying talent was due to his blind pursuit of cultivation. Even though he was the youngest Ban Sheng from a thousand years ago, his foundation was extremely weak. In terms of strength, he couldn't be compared to a step by step Ban Sheng.
"If I had become a Half-Saint step by step, it would not have been so easy for Dong Ran and Xuan Yue to kill me!"
Qin Hao's Martial Soul was inspired by the birth of the fetus, but the help it gave him was not as great as he had imagined. He thought about it carefully and found that he had been pursuing cultivation and neglected the growth of the Martial Soul and the refinement of his own foundation.
"In this life, I will take the strongest path!"
He resolutely chose to cultivate the Great Void Sutra!
Even if it wasn't complete!
It was because the Void God Emperor was still the number one person in all of history!
