Night without Borders

Chapter 98 Climbing the Peak

Qin Ming received three rays of light from the otherworldly world. Although his whole body was dark, he was not injured. On the contrary, his energy and spirit were stronger than before.

As he circulated the Lihuo Meridian, he felt the vitality surging throughout his body, and waves of heat seemed to be baptizing and purifying his body and nourishing his spirit.

Qin Ming was surprised. This was indeed a miraculous skill. It seemed to be able to remove hair and cleanse the marrow. After learning it, his physical condition actually improved.

"The Fire Separation Sutra is extraordinary. Once you comprehend it, you can use this technique to slowly mutate your body. If you do this for a long time, you can achieve its full potential."

He felt that he was now stronger than during the battle in the desert. This change, which he could actually feel, made him more devoted and wanted to continue his hard training.

He went to wash up, removing all traces of lightning and fire. His black hair was covered with water droplets, his skin lines were smooth, crystal clear and shiny, and his vitality was significantly improved.

Not long after, Qin Ming came to the City Lord's Mansion and said, "Uncle Meng, are you looking for me?"

Meng Xinghai said: "We are about to go to the outer world. Don't mess around in the Thunder Fire Alchemy Palace anymore. Keep your body in the best condition."

"I just want to become stronger and make a difference in the outside world." Qin Ming said.

Meng Xinghai smiled and said, "Well, I knew you were eager to make progress recently. Don't rush around. I've prepared everything for you."

He pointed to two boxes on the coffee table and said, "A volume of miraculous skills and a rare spiritual substance that can greatly increase your strength."

Qin Ming couldn't stop smiling. After practicing the Lihuo Jin, he heard such good news. It was a double happiness and his strength could be increased again.

He couldn't wait to open the box containing the secret book, and with a puzzled look on his face, he asked, "Golden Silkworm Technique, is this a technique related to aliens?"

Qin Ming had heard that although some special classics imitated higher creatures, the power they could ultimately display far exceeded that of the original alien creatures.

"This book has little to do with the advanced alien golden silkworm. It just uses this name." Meng Xinghai's expression became serious and told him some details.

If he could fully master this miraculous skill, he might be able to see an even more extraordinary secret book.

Qin Ming showed a surprised expression and said, "The words 'Golden Silkworm' are just a cover-up. Is there an even more powerful scripture behind it?"

Meng Xinghai nodded and said, "When I prepare the new life method for you, I naturally have to consider the long-term. Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to help you get the more rare secret book. If you can master this one and get recognition in the end, maybe you can see the other one."

Qin Ming immediately became excited and started studying it directly, wanting to see its wonders.

He finally understood why it was called the Golden Silkworm Skill. The skill recorded in this classic book could produce a natural light force that was like silk and could form a cocoon of light outside the body, which had amazing defensive capabilities.

Moreover, when it is practiced to a high level, it can absorb the rare golden essence, making the silk-like sky light energy and cocoon more resilient and indestructible.

"In the early stage, it is mainly for protecting the body?" Qin Ming showed a strange look. Recently, he has obtained several defensive secret techniques, such as Golden Armor Skill and Golden Light Shield, which are very extraordinary.

Unfortunately, he had only initially cultivated the Vajra Force and Golden Light Force. Without taking the Three-Colored Flower or entering the Thunder and Fire Alchemy Palace to receive the light from the otherworldly sky, it would be difficult to push them up.

Meng Xinghai said: "Many hard skills are indeed powerful, but they are easily broken if they are too hard. This Golden Silkworm Skill is both flexible and strong, and has infinite advantages. Moreover, if you look back, its attack power is even more terrifying."

Qin Ming continued reading with a serious expression. It was indeed a miraculous feat. Not to mention the later chapters, just the use of Tianguang Jin was terrifying.

Those flexible golden silk threads, after being practiced to a high level, can shoot outward and quickly pierce the opponent.

Even when it reaches a higher level, the golden silk transformed from the skylight force dances in a disorderly manner and can tear apart other people's skylight, weapons, etc., as if distorting space.

Qin Ming was excited and said, "I wish I could master it right away and find some disciples from other worlds to practice with!"

Meng Xinghai reminded him, "In the new realm, it only greatly increases your defense. As for other aspects, consider it after you step into the outer saint realm."

"Uncle Meng, you are afraid that something might happen to me in that spiritual cave, so you found this kind of defensive technique for me. However, although I can get the basics in a short period of time, how can I increase the total amount of Tianguang Jin?" Qin Ming asked. Such a miraculous skill must be extremely exhausting.

Meng Xinghai first added calming incense to the copper incense burner before saying, "You just need to initially practice the golden silkworm power, and I will take care of the rest."

Qin Ming's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at him with great anticipation.

Meng Xinghai did not elaborate, only telling him that the gift could increase his total amount of skylight.

"By the way, after the arrival of early spring, the esoteric sects, blessed lands, and some special institutions of higher learning will begin to select disciples. Well, the annual exam is about to begin, and you don't have to participate in the early stages. As the lord of a city, it's okay to select you as the number one in the city. Of course, if you want to be more ambitious, some confrontations are inevitable later. For example, competing to be the first in a big place has many benefits."

"Let me improve my strength first!" Qin Ming said. He would be heading to a foreign land soon and could not really rely on Li Qingyue's protection.

He even wanted to fight with some of the non-Buddhist disciples if the opportunity was right.

Meng Xinghai nodded and said, "Well, you are right. Don't be distracted recently. In the next period of time, the dispute between Fangwai disciples will probably become the focus and will attract the attention of all parties. You are now preparing for the battle."

"I am a newborn, not a disciple from outside the sect. By the way, Uncle Meng, since the spiritual cave is filled with the otherworldly light that is so dense that it cannot be dissolved, the spiritual substances it once contained have not dissipated, right? If I receive baptism there, can't I be reborn again?" Qin Ming asked.

"Don't mess around. The light there is extremely violent. You are not unwilling to give up and want to quickly improve your realm and fight with the disciples from outside the sect, right?" Meng Xinghai looked at him and joked, "Fortunately, your realm is not high enough, so it is difficult for you to steal the limelight from others."

"How could that be? I can tell who are the main participants in that battlefield. I just go there to broaden my horizons." Qin Ming also smiled, then said goodbye and prepared to go to the fifth rebirth.

That night, he opened the jade jar, and inside was a purple liquid with a hazy mist flowing through it, and its rich spirituality was indissoluble.

Qin Ming raised his head and drank it all. Then he felt his whole body burning, as if it was on fire, and vigorous vitality was surging throughout his body. This was not his first experience. He already had experience and did not care much about it. He first practiced the new life method in the silk book, and then went to comprehend the "Golden Silkworm Skill".

Qin Ming could clearly feel that his physical fitness was constantly improving. This was an all-round increase, with changes occurring in everything from strength to perception.

The fifth rebirth is mainly reflected in the toughness of the body. In simple terms, it is more resistant to beatings. The sixth rebirth is likely to give birth to a special ability.

That night, after he fell asleep, the golden jade robe reappeared, but unfortunately he did not dream of his grandfather, nor did he see his childhood self.

Because, when he was young, before he entered the Cui family, all the experiences he had in learning silk books were thoroughly reviewed during his last rebirth, and he remembered them all.

In the early morning, Qin Ming sighed, wondering if his grandfather was still alive. At that time, the old man said that he could live another ten years, but now thirteen years have passed.

"I'm not strong enough, otherwise, I would just ask those important members of the Cui family."

Qin Ming put away those thoughts, let his body regenerate, and began to concentrate on studying the Golden Silkworm Skill.

In the evening, he completely completed his fifth rebirth. His perception, speed, and physical toughness were greatly improved, and his strength exceeded six thousand kilograms.

There is no doubt that his strength has increased rapidly.

Qin Ming did not go out. He knew that this was not enough. He seriously comprehended the Golden Silkworm Skill and continued to practice it in the yard.

On the fifth day, he developed the Golden Silkworm Power. Strands of golden light emerged from his body like malt breaking through the soil, bringing with it vigorous vitality. However, he could not yet weave a net. This was just the beginning.

But this is enough. Meng Xinghai has prepared a big gift for him so that he can continue to improve.

In recent days, news about the dispute among Fangwai disciples has indeed been reported in various places, attracting attention from all parties.

Later on, even the topic of the final exam was suppressed.

This is mainly because the path of outsiders is extremely powerful, and any movement will attract the attention of the world, not to mention the competition that is about to begin among a group of core disciples.

Now in every city, in teahouses and restaurants, a large number of people are discussing it heatedly.

After Qin Ming entered the City Lord's Mansion, he discovered that Meng Xinghai had a guest, a young man who looked somewhat familiar.

"Brother Chonghe, no, Brother Qinming, long time no see." The young man smiled and stood up to greet him. He had red lips and white teeth, and his eyes were shining. He seemed to be quite powerful.

Qin Ming thought carefully and knew who he was. He had seen him in Qinghe City before. His name was Li Qingxiao and he should be fourteen years old now. He was Li Qingxu's cousin.

"It's been a long time since we last met." Qin Ming nodded.

"I originally wanted to go to Uncle Meng to get a gilded image and have him appoint me as the best in this city. I didn't expect Brother Qin Ming to get there first. Then I won't compete with you and will go to another city." Li Qingxiao said with a smile.

Qin Ming smiled faintly. He didn't believe that this scheming young man didn't know he was here before.

It was estimated that he killed the black-clothed woman and an outer saint in the desert. His old friends didn't know who did it and had discussed it.

Qin Ming guessed that Li Qingxiao really wanted to find a city to gild himself, and when he passed by this place, he wanted to find out some information.

Li Qingxiao sighed, "I didn't expect Brother Qin to be so amazing. He has quietly become number one here. No wonder my cousin thinks so highly of you."

Qin Ming was too lazy to pay attention to him. Everyone knew about the grudge between him and Li Qingxu. Naturally, the young man had no good intentions when he mentioned these things.

"Go to another city." Meng Xinghai began to drive people away.

Li Qingxiao refused to leave and said, "Uncle Meng, you are really biased. I was chased away even when I was sitting here, but you took care of Brother Qin Ming like this."

He smiled and said, "Brother Qin, my cousin said that you will definitely meet again in the future. He thinks highly of you and those things in the past were just some misunderstandings."

"Yeah." Qin Ming only uttered one word.

Seeing that he didn't respond much, Li Qingxiao said to himself: "My cousin said that in the future, if Brother Qin can reach the peak of his career, he will eventually be able to enter the outside world."

Is this a high evaluation? If it were put outside, ordinary freshmen might be very excited, as this is a high recognition from outsiders.

However, Li Qingxu's evaluation of Qin Ming was not a good thing.

The meaning is very clear. Qin Ming must work hard to rise and strive to the highest peak before he can enter the otherworldly land to meet Li Qingxu.

Of course, there is another hidden meaning. What do the masters on the road to becoming a new student do in the secluded place? Become a jade armor guard, or a god armor guard.

Meng Xinghai looked unhappy and said, "Don't stir up trouble. Also, let your cousin focus more on the competition among the disciples outside the sect. He may not be able to get the thing in the spirit cave."

"I also don't think he can get it." Qin Ming said.

Li Qingxiao smiled widely and said, "Just wait and see. The battle among the disciples from outside the sect will begin soon."

There will be an update after midnight, but it is about to be put on the shelves. Thank you to all the book friends for their support.
