Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 4: The Supreme Art of Quintessential Space
Su ShangWen's words not only shook Su LingYun, it also caused everyone in the house to be stunned. They never expected that Su ShangWen could be this stupid, not apologize when his son was wrong, not have the right attitude when begging to people, he said, and even use a higher status to threaten others.
However, recalling Su ShangWen's influence in Star City, everyone couldn't help but wail in silence for Su LingYun and Tang Xiu.
Even if Su ShangWen's character is disgusting, it's, it was an undeniable truth that he had assets of over a few million and the connections he had built up over the years in Star City could make people lose hope.
Just when everyone thought that the faint-hearted Su LingYun would submit to his threat, a smile suddenly emerged from Su LingYun's expressionless face as she tiptoed lightly, saying, raising his hand and ruthlessly giving Su ShangWen a slap on his face.
The slap was so loud and clear that everyone in the living room thought there was a problem with their hearing.
In everyone's eyes, Su LingYun was the type of person who was delicate and calm, grumpy and pleasant, to say that she had a weak character was also unpleasant, as well, there were only instances of him being bullied and never had he been the only oppressor of others. Yet for the first time in his life, he actually dared to slap someone, and the one that was slapped was the strong and powerful Su ShangWen. This caused everyone's jaws to fall.
Seeing Su ShangWen being slapped by his mother, Tang Xiu felt very satisfied and could not help but laugh out loud, but the joy was short-lived. Tang Xiu's body on Earth was very weak to begin with. Suddenly his soul returned, the overwhelming sadness and happiness in such a short period of time and coupled with the use of the breathing technique of the Origin Ignition Art that burned the user's life force had knocked him unconscious after just three big laughs.
When Su ShangWen realized that he was slapped by his younger sister who was shorter than him by an enormous margin, a vicious glint flashed past his eyes as he bellowed furiously and wanted to hit Su LingYun. But Su ShangWen would never have thought that before he had the chance to take action, a pair of ice-cold handcuffs had landed in his hands. Cheng XueMei who was standing at the side observing the scene had prevented him from flying into a rage and endangering people.
“Me and Hu WenXu will send Tang Xiu to the hospital, Lady Su LingYun will follow us. All of you will bring relevant people involved to the police station! ”Cheng XueMei looked at Su ShangWen with disdain, and with a wave of her hand, she concluded the operation for today. (TLN: I assume that Hu WenXu is another police officer, the random name that appears is really confusing)
Su ShangWen was like a deflating rubber ball withering away as he looked at the silhouette of Cheng XueMei about to depart.
Similarly, Zhang XueMei would have never expected that such a joyous celebration party would end in such a tragic manner due to the faults of their own families. Even if they could be released easily after arrest, but their reputation among their friends and neighbors was tarnished.
On the other hand Su YaNing and Su FeiXiang were stunned since a while ago. They clearly could not understand how a simple joke could land them in such a desperate state.
“Tang Xiu manipulated the whole event, he blew up the problem on purpose!” Tang Xiu's devious smile and his words of wanting to continue playing together with Su XiangFei suddenly appeared in his mind as Su XiangFei shouted hysterically. But unfortunately at this moment, no one would care about the restless Su XiangFei anymore.
Meanwhile in Star City hospital where the night deepened.
The night sky sparkled with stars as moonlight shone through the glass window onto Tang Xiu's pale yet delicate face.
“With the gods in the sky, and the demons on the land, the universe has determined the gods and demons to be separated. If a god is a holy being, is a demon a lowly being? If the devil is superior, what is a lesser god? The universe is always in motion, strengths and weaknesses are difficult to separate, Yin and Yang will eventually meet. When the two forces converge, fusion occurs and forms of good and evil will coexist as one. This is the Dao of yin and yang .... ”(TLN: Yin \= Dark, Yang \= Bright)
A line of hard to understand words suddenly came out from Tang Xiu's mouth that woke Su LingYun who was resting by his bedside.
Initially, Su LingYun thought her son was having nightmares due to a traumatic event that occurred in the afternoon and wanted to wake his son up. But when she saw her son's skin through the dim light, she put away the thought.
Although Tang Xiu said many incomprehensible words, his facial expression showed an unusual calmness and his two beautiful-looking brows curved into a crescent shape as if he was smiling lightly.
“Does my son read the classics?” Given that his son was going to sit in the third grade of high school, Su LingYun felt relieved.
At the next moment, Su LingYun's eyes suddenly opened wide.
He was astonished by the sudden burst of light coming from the stars outside the window which then turned into a hint of starlight, passing through the window and projecting onto his son's pale face. The pieces of starlight then quietly assimilated into his body.
After a while, a faint layer of white mist was slowly produced and lingered around his son's body which looked like an illusion like a fantasy in the dark night.
Seeing that his son's pale complexion was slowly turning reddish and a layer of holy light covered his forehead, Su LingYun hurriedly grabbed the white mist with his hands, wanting to make sure that he was not hallucinating.
Yet once he touched the white mist, everything disappeared into thin air.
“It seems that today's incident must have given Me a big surprise for Me to hallucinate.” Su LingYun smiled bitterly as she helped Tang Xiu put down his blanket properly before lying down to rest again.
What Su LingYun did not notice was that with the disappearance of the white mist, Tang Xiu's eyelashes trembled lightly for a moment.
“Quintessential Space Supreme Art, I actually managed to successfully develop the Quintessential Space Supreme Art?” Tang Xiu had a face full of disbelief as she lay on the bed feeling devoid of feeling astonished after checking the condition of her own body.
It is said that during the ancient era when heavenly energy had not yet formed, the world was filled with formless energy. Humanity was like ants, while the world was dominated by a race of gods and demons where their martial skills could move mountains and dry the sea.
The ancestors of the god race had extremely powerful insights, so their cultivation techniques were mostly on cultivating the mind. On the other hand the ancestors of the demon race had extremely strong bodies, so their cultivation techniques were mostly on cultivating bodies. Although the cultivation techniques of both gods and demons were extremely powerful, but they clashed with each other, making it impossible to cultivate both techniques at the same time.
It was also because of the overpowering cultivation techniques of gods and demons that led to the extinction of both races, leaving only traces of the battlefield and fragments of secret techniques.
The Supreme Art of Classical Space that Tang Xiu discovered was claimed to be the supreme cultivation technique that allowed geniuses from the god and demon races to cultivate it.
After obtaining the cultivation technique, Tang Xiu became frenzied as he began to learn the technique. However, after 100 years he had no choice but to admit that he could not cultivate it.
The reason was that this cultivation technique required the cultivator to have his physical and mental state return to the starting point when the cultivator was given life, which meant, returning to a state when they were only a fetus. Not only does it require the body in its purest form, the mind must also be in its purest form. This is impossible to achieve.
Tang Xiu went into seclusion to study the art thoroughly for 100 years, but he was still unable to find a solution to it. Disappointed, Tang Xiu threw the Supreme Art of Classical Space into his storage ring as if it was trash. He did not share it with his lovers and close friends because he felt it would be of no use to them. Not only would it waste their time and effort, it could even result in cultivation irregularities.
But it was precisely this decision that caused her lover and her close friends to breed hatred in their hearts and in the end join hands with Tang Xiu, causing her soul to break apart and die of grudge.
“How did I manage to cultivate the Ultimate Art of Classical Space in just one night on Earth even when I failed to cultivate it after spending 100 years in the Eternal World? Is it because the body I have on Earth has better cultivation abilities than the body I have in the Eternal World? “Tang Xiu falls into contemplation.
Soon, Tang Xiu rejected the idea.
As the grandson of the head of the Sacred Sect in the Eternal World, he was nourished with all kinds of heavenly treasures even when he was still in his mother's womb, and even after he was born, he was nurtured with all kinds of heavenly treasures, he is strengthened externally and internally. His cultivation intelligence and talent were also extremely terrifying. Not only did his cultivation progress so quickly, the number of spiritual pills, martial skills, cultivation tools and talismans he possessed also caused others to become envious from envy.
On the other hand, the body that Tang Xiu had on Earth was malnourished since young. Furthermore, he was so focused on his studies that he neglected to train his body. After a car accident, he becomes very clumsy and often injures himself. It was thus illogical that his body on Earth would have better cultivation talent than his body in the Eternal World.
“Because the problem is not in growing talent, then what is the problem?” Tang Xiu fell into contemplation once more as he felt a wisp of energy from the stars as well as a weak but different life force flowing through his body.
The Supreme Art of the Classical Space demanded the cultivator to restore his physical and mental state back to the starting point when the cultivator was given life, which was to say, back to a state when they were only fetuses …
It is said that in ancient times when heavenly energy had not yet been formed, there was only formless energy.
Coincidentally, the current Earth practically had no heavenly energy in its surroundings.
As for physical and mental conditions ……
After spewing blood and being unconscious, My body is in a paralyzed state where I cannot control My own body and this can barely meet the requirements from the start. My soul has also just returned which caused my mental state to not be stained, so to say that it started from scratch is also undeniable.
After deciding to give it a try, Tang Xiu made a leap of faith as he recklessly charged forward, making a leap of faith, recalling the contents he had memorized with great difficulty over a hundred thousand times and started his first cultivation phase.
The first stage of the Supreme Art of Classical Space, Star Transcendence!
“With the gods in the sky, and the demons on the land, the universe has determined the gods and demons to be separated. If a god is a holy being, is a demon a lowly being? If the devil is superior, what is a lesser god? The universe is always in motion, strengths and weaknesses are difficult to separate, Yin and Yang will eventually meet. When the two forces converge, fusion occurs and forms of good and evil will coexist as one. This is the Dao of yin and yang ... ”.
As the bini was read out line by line, Tang Xiu found that his consciousness began to expand rapidly until he saw the star-filled sky.
For the first time in her life, Tang Xiu felt that the stars were rather cute and familiar, causing her to have the desire to caress and take care of her gently.
With a flicker of thought, Tang Xiu's consciousness began to reach out to one of the stars that suddenly shone gracefully as if calling out to Tang Xiu. It then shattered into countless starlight before splashing out toward Tang Xiu's consciousness and entering his body.
When all the starlight was absorbed by Tang Xiu's body, his consciousness began to reach out to other stars again.
Just like this, he started playing hide and seek with the stars as he slowly forgot that he was cultivating.
“Ahhh .....” Suddenly, Tang Xiu screamed and withdrew from his cultivation after an unknown time.
