Two weeks have passed since he began training in the demon core evolution technique level one, and after two weeks of cultivating with the scripture, he has made significant improvements, particularly in his perception and strength.
He had a routine in which he meditated at night and sparred with Li Yun in the afternoon, which allowed him to balance his body and adapt to close combat as well as magic.
Qi essence is the cultivation world's mana; it evolves the body and grants the user the ability to use mysterious techniques.
Mo Shen has been able to take the hit of Li Yun's level one strength punch and only take two steps back, but his attack is still a work in progress.
Mo Shen and the Li family were enjoying a finely prepared soup outside the house, surrounded by the faint glow of the moon and the songs of birds flying across the sky.
"You'll be experiencing your first breakthrough in a day or two; I'd advise you to cherish your exercise routine in order to withstand the pain of breakthrough." Mr Li exclaimed, and Mo Shen nodded.
"Thank you very much, Mr Li. I'm not sure how good my father was to you before he was taken away, but I promise that your family will always be in my heart. I'll get stronger and assist you in whatever you want in the future." His words were genuine.
It was unusual for a family to take in a stranger and treat him as if he were their own without asking for anything in return, not even chores, which he assisted with whenever he was available, such as taking care of firewood and maintaining the garden.
"Don't worry, your father is a wonderful man who has helped my husband and me in the past, even taking our problems on as his own, so taking care of his son is nothing new to him." Mrs. Li laughed.
"So, do you have any plans for my daughter, such as dating? She is already ready for a serious relationship." Mr. Li's joke was not taken lightly by Li Yan, who nearly turned the table around in rage.
Li Yun blushed until her face was covered with a tinge of red.
Mo Shen scratched his head and said, "Li Yun is really beautiful, the most beautiful lady I have ever seen, but I'm too weak to think of a woman her level, there are some brazen guys out there who would kill just to be with Li Yun." Li Yun blushed and began playing with the vegetables, while Mo Shen scratched his head and said, "Li Yun is really beautiful, the most beautiful lady I have ever seen, but I'm too weak to
"Ha ha ha, you have the same mindset as your father; he always wanted to live a peaceful life, but the arrival of your mother, a peerless beauty, and the demonic inheritance changed everything." Mr Li sighed, remembering Mo Tang Yuan as a young swordmaster who always carried his sword on his back wherever he went.
After dinner, Mo Shen returned to his room but this time he did not jump into cultivation as before instead he opened his system panel to take a look at his stats that has been updated after he got the demon manual, there was now an addition of stats, Perception (PER).

'I guess the required essence to reach level one is 1.0, Mr Li said I'm on the verge of breaking through in my cultivation, I guess he's right, but I can't wait to finally be able to stand my ground against Li Yun's attack.'
The mountain eagle fist is a great martial arts technique, but he has decided to train it once he reaches level 3, because the mountain eagle fist is a technique that is better trained by those with wind and earth attributes.
.....
Meanwhile, while Mo Shen was attempting to reach a certain level of cultivation, his archenemies, the crushing tiger sect and the Liu family, were working hard to make do with the demon core they had extracted from him.
Because of his contribution, Liu Ren's status in the sect has risen from outer court disciple to inner court.
It was finally time to perform the ritual on the demon core, as his father and some elders gathered at the peak of a mountain.
"With the blood pool established, the elders in formation, and the Demonic essence spitting array in place, it's time to summon the demon core." Elder Gui, the seventh elder in the crushing tiger sect, is the strongest among the people on the mountain top, and he also runs the outer sect disciples.
Elder Lui produced the demon core; as soon as the demon core was released into the air, the demonic essence in the atmosphere began to react violently.
Elder Gui held the demon core and examined it with his divine sense as a Qi master realm cultivator.
His eyes widened in shock after inspecting.
"It's done!"
"Sealed?!"
"What, sealed? That's bad. If we don't unseal it, one person will have to give up their life to prevent the ritual from becoming something else."
It's a forbidden ritual, and it was undoubtedly designed to provide various benefits.
This ritual has previously destroyed an entire sect that was even larger than the crushing tiger sect.
All the elders became terrified as elder Gui held the sealed demon core in his hands, which resembled a delicate crystal.
Elder Lui was the most concerned here; the demon core had been sealed, but if he had allowed selfishness to rule his mind, he would have implanted the demon core in his body.
He also had some motivation back then to make his son have the demon core; he wants the sect to succeed as well as his family.
If his family is one of the strongest in the city and the younger generation learns of it, they will be motivated to join the sect, raising the sect's rank and making them more powerful.
He was devastated when they discovered the core had been sealed.
The ritual can be triggered, but if there is a mistake, it will kill everyone in its path, even destroying mountains and burning people to death.
The elders inside the formation were so terrified that they used the voice transmission orb to contact the sect leader, who is the strongest, and ask him to come help them."Don't be foolish, if it was possible to communicate with others outside, do you think I would be standing here doing nothing?" said Elder Gui, catching a glimpse of the transmission orb."Does.. does that mean!""Yes, no one inside can communicate with anyone outside, and those outside cannot communicate with anyone inside. However, if they have reached the Qi Lord realm, they will have a chance to stop; unfortunately, no one in the entire nation has reached that realm."The elders' faces darkened; no one wanted to lay down their lives for something so stupid."He was praised so much that he returned home with a sealed demon core; now one of us must lay down our lives so that this does not turn chaotic; how useless? It would have been preferable if he hadn't made any moves at all." One of the older people snorted.
Two weeks was set out to mourn the death of an elder, the disciples did not feel bad for not having time to cultivate, that zeal of cultivation would be long gone if elder sun hasn't gave up his life for them. Even the sect leader refused to cultivate, he stood on the mountain peak and stared into the sky, many believed that he was able to see the dead and wordlessly converse with them. His grandson was brought to the sect, the vice sect leader, a beautiful lady with the body of twenty plus volunteered to take care of him. After the two weeks was over, every disciple went back to cultivating even more seriously than they did in the past because they wanted to fulfill the last wish of the hero. Meanwhile, the elders and higher rank masters gathered in a hall to discuss. "The demon core is sealed, that bastard Mo Tang Yuan, he really did this and caused one of our finest elder to die, if he is ever caught he should be killed in the most inhumane way available." "I agree with you,
Mo Shen has been living in the Li family for a month now, and he has certainly made a few improvement in his cultivation life and also he has been able to converse with a beautiful girl like Li Yun everyday. In the past he did not get to friend a girl because he felt really inferior especially if the girl was beautiful and talented, however after chatting with Li Yun he learnt all girls are the same in some way and different in some way. But he could not rely on this family forever, he has decided he would depart two days from now but first he need two important things clothes and money. "I would have given you money but you said it's too much and you like to work for your own money, your heart is really good, a man like you will not find it hard in the future to get a wife, get stronger in the future and come for the hand of my daughter, if she says yes, I as a father will not argue." "Thank you for your encouraging words, can you recommend me a place I can make a little cash tod
Mr. Black was strong; after entering the canoe, he did not pressure the two of them to do anything; he paddled the canoe himself. However, Li Yan agreed to do that for Mr. Black; his attribute is flame and wind, so he was able to control the water and make the canoe move faster. "Brilliant, brilliant, you have really mastered your attribute very well. Only those that have mastered water and wind will be able to control the wind like you do. I wonder what sect you belong to." "None. I'm going to participate in the recruiting ceremony coming up soon, and if I'm lucky enough, I'll be recruited into one of the best sects in the world." "That's a huge dream; work harder, and you will even have the opportunity to pick from the sects instead of the sects picking you." "Thank you for your words of encouragement," Mr. Black said. "Your words are really encouraging." Li Yan almost cried; only Mo Shen was the stranger in their conversation. Mr. Black turned his attention to him and asked w
The bandit discovered the two of them immediately and asked them to follow after the other guys to lie on the ground so that they could rob them. How foolish are they? It's just like telling someone to give you his phone so that you can steal it. "Hey, are you guys acting on something? As you can see, I'm planning to go home. If you guys dare step on my path, I promise I'm going to crush you guys." Li Yan threatened with a fierce look in his eyes. The bandits are three in number; from their voices and the way they behaved, one will be able to tell their age, which is no more than 17; the strongest of them all is a level 4 qi disciple, and the weakest is a level 2."You guys better cooperate, and you will be able to go home safely; if you don't want to cooperate, then don't blame me for beating you guys." The strongest threatened as he licked the blade of his life. He was trying to act like a maniac, but they were just brainless. The one that licked the blade ended up letting out a
Mr Li was concerned after hearing Li Yan's explanation of how Mo Shen killed the bandit."According to Mo Tang Yuan, that technique leads to two paths: neutrality and pure darkness. Mo Shen's current attribute is similar to the second one; I hope it doesn't affect him negatively." He spoke so softly that his wife, who was sleeping in the same bed with him, couldn't hear him....Mo Shen was outside at the time, carrying a bamboo bag, ready to leave the Li family now that he had some money, and he had even purchased some clothes to change into during his journey.He was outside of the Li family, and they were all smiling as they said their goodbyes.Li Yan had a smug smile on his face; he was content as long as Mo Shen did not leave with his sister and did not intend to date his sister.Mo Shen looked at them with gratitude in his eyes; during his brief stay here, he had learned many things, including the value of family.Being in the presence of people who love you is unquestionably l
The ferocious sea monster let out a loud roar, and the ship began to move backward against the sailor's will.Everyone on deck was terrified; a young lady used her hands to cover her baby's eyes; such a sight at such a young age is not good; it could lead to a lot of nightmares and trauma in the future if they survive."You unfortunate beast, today you will realize how unlucky you are to have harmed the ship I'm on; this great mountain swordsman will make you bleed today." The masked man roared, his hands clenched around his sword, and his legs balanced on the floor.His battle-ready stance irritated the sea monster, who immediately sent one of its heads towards him while the other started shooting flame at the ship.Some water element cultivator controlled the water on the ship to slow and quench the flame's momentum.Meanwhile, the masked man leaped into the hair and began sprinting on the sea monster's snaky head, his feet extremely fast.When it reached a point on the sea monster'
Everyone assumed that the mysterious man was an assassin sent after Mo Shen, while others assumed that it was a negative reunion, but they were all surprised when the mysterious man asked Mo Shen to be his disciple throughout the journey.Of course, seeing his prowess right now, many guys wanted to capture his attention so that he could become their teacher, even if only for a short time.Mo Shen looked at the masked man; from his voice, he could tell he was middle-aged, probably between the ages of 30 and fifty.Mo Shen stared at his deep-powerful eyes for a moment before nodding his head, agreeing that the martial arts moves he was performing right now were simply too impressive for him to resist the temptation to learn them."What, he appears to be someone who hasn't even begun cultivating; why did this expert pick him over us?""Look at his clothes; it's clear that he comes from a common background; if this expert charges for his lessons, this brat will be broke for the rest of hi
