Chapter 297: Chapter 184 The Taboo Buried Together by the Nine Marshals!_2

If I were to land a punch on myself before undergoing the Celestial Light Empowerment.

“I could probably dissipate about seventy percent of the impact! The Skin Gate Limit, the most intricate form of energy dissolution!”

Qin Shi endured the burning sting of the celestial light entering his body, raising his hand to press down on his arm.

He discovered the applied force felt like it was being absorbed by a vast sponge, with his flesh and blood quickly operating to weaken it layer by layer, distributing it across every part.

This is the subtlety of the Skin Gate, making all external forces disappear like mud cows entering the sea!

“The Fourth Major Limit is opening, heralding a new transformation! Let the celestial light come even more fiercely!”

During each new stage, the mortal body needs a large amount of nutrients and high-energy factors absorbed into the flesh and blood to fill the gaps created by potential exploitation.

The Celestial Light Empowerment precisely uses energy explosions to strengthen the physique!

It couldn’t be a more perfect match!

“What’s happening, one wave after another without a break?”

Xu Sheng stood outside the crumbling temple, staring straight at the enormous rift torn open by the Void Altar.

The dazzling celestial light, guided, gushed forth like a blinding waterfall with a loud crash.

“Isn’t this intensity a bit overboard?”

Xu Sheng frowned. No matter how monstrous Qin Shi was, he was still at the amateur level, yet to break into the specialized domain.

“Should we halt it? In case the youngster is too stubborn, not knowing when to advance or retreat, and ends up harming himself, I would be in big trouble.”

As the chief examiner, if the top scorer of the Hundred Best Competition was to die prematurely, Xu Sheng would undoubtedly bear the blame.

As he pondered, Old Zhang pushed the wheelchair over and said:

“That altar was forged by Marshal Qin himself and stabilized with a separate space acting as an ‘anchor,’ preventing it from shattering.

Each time celestial light is guided, it maneuvers the ‘anchor,’ opening the space. The person receiving the empowerment must integrate their body and mind, releasing their aura.

Theoretically, the stronger the aura, the fiercer the celestial light.”

Xu Sheng looked at the massive celestial light like a thunderstorm, hesitating:

“Senior, as the saying goes, too much of anything is bad. I know the inheritor from Nanhuang Daoist School has extraordinary talent, beyond imagination. But to damage the mortal body to such an extent, even if there’s no fatal risk, leaving some defects wouldn’t be good either.”

Old Zhang remained calm, evidently confident in the chosen inheritor.

“Little Qin knows his limits. The Celestial Light Empowerment might take years to come by, such a great opportunity must be seized.”

Xu Sheng said no more; since the master wasn’t worried, he needn’t be anxious either.

Old Zhang’s palm unconsciously tightened on the armrest, outwardly calm but still carrying a hint of nervousness inside.

It wasn’t that he thought Qin Shi couldn’t withstand the Celestial Light Empowerment, but rather he might touch upon He Lanchan’s inherited secret!

The second true inheritor of Nanhuang Daoist School, Shen Changyuan, died because of it.

If Qin Shi truly understood the taboo, which the nine families agreed to conceal together.

Perhaps the “mountain” facing Nanhuang Daoist School would not be limited to just the Ying family.

“Changyuan, what did you mean by ‘Leaving the Green Tomb Alone at Dusk’ before you died.”

Old Zhang furrowed his brows, leaning his frail, shrunken body into the wheelchair.

As the Fourth Major Limit opened, the operation of the three gates of muscles, bones, and skin absorbed and digested the violent celestial light, Qin Shi gradually ceased to feel pain.

Instead, he adapted to the surging energy stirring within him, constantly stimulating his flesh. The boiling hot water turned into a warm, thick flow, filling his bones, making his entire body feel warm.

“Once you endure it, you get to enjoy it.”

Qin Shi relaxed his body and mind, releasing his aura like a straight stream of smoke the size of a palm, guiding the celestial light to descend, refining the mortal body.

A few minutes later, he inexplicably felt sleepy, as if he had grown tired after a long soak.

His head slowly drooped, like falling asleep.

In the Inner Realm, under the shade of a tree, Super Little He opened his eyes and saw Qin Shi’s conscious spiritual light appear.

He walked like a sleepwalker to the ancient altar formed by the Void Meditation Technique.

Activating Spiritual Resonance!

In this half-awake, half-dream state, Qin Shi once again saw that white-haired figure.

Compared to the last time, this time He Lanchan seemed much younger.

“Leaving the Green Tomb Alone at Dusk. Teacher, how could you betray Dongxia.”

He Lanchan sat on the lotus stone seat, seemingly incredulous, murmuring:

“It’s said that the Fourth Battle Group is full of proud soldiers and fierce generals, but no matter how proud the soldiers or how fierce the generals are, they still see you, the Vice Marshal, as their father.

During the Great Expedition, the Fourth Battle Group had the least casualties because you always refined and revised your strategies repeatedly, minimizing our losses. Even Marshal Qin praised you, saying you were born to be a great marshal.”

Qin Shi silently listened. History textbooks and other writings had few records about He Lanchan’s teacher, the mysterious Vice Marshal of the Battle Group.

He just knew that he and Marshal Qin were blood brothers but with a significant age gap. When Marshal Qin rose to fame, the Vice Marshal had just been born. When the Dongxia Republic was founded and the Great Expedition began, the Vice Marshal was just fifteen years old and entered the Imperial Capital Martial Arts Hall to study, and later attended Yu Nan Military Academy as a fourth-term student, assigned to the infantry section.

Marshal Qin commanded the Fourth Battle Group, stationed in the Eastern Celestial Star Domain. During the mid-phase of the Great Expedition, the Vice Marshal became a member of the military committee, gradually taking over the Fourth Battle Group, assisting his elder brother, Marshal Qin, in handling military affairs.

It was also during that time the Fourth Battle Group began to shine, capturing three administrative planets, banishing, or sealing several Star Gods.

“Teacher, what did you take from the Imperial Capital that made the Nine Marshals want to erase you?”

He Lanchan’s eyes were full of doubt, his whole being sinking into deep suspicion.
