Chapter 355: Chapter 355: Rebuilding the Foundation

Watching her self-confident brother, Lu Yanwu had words on the tip of her tongue but then held them back.

She knew better than anyone how proud her brother was.

Lu Yanfei was only twenty-nine and had already reached the Dark Energy Peak Realm, and it was very likely that he would enter the Energizing Skill stage before thirty.

Keep in mind that Shen Zhou’s current strongest, the Sovereign Master, also entered the Energizing Skill stage before turning thirty.

Not only did the Lu Family have high hopes for Lu Yanfei’s future, but the Battle Domain did as well.

It can be said that among the younger generation in the Shen Zhou Battle Domain, Lu Yanfei is definitely one of those with the strongest martial talents.

"I heard Grandfather say that the Chief Instructor of the Azure Dragon Combat Team is a martial prodigy with exceptional talent, and seems even younger than you, Brother," she said.

Lu Yanwu did not inform Lu Yanfei about Qin Chuan but instead spoke with deep implications, "Brother, you best be mentally prepared. Don’t underestimate your opponent just because they are young when the time comes."

"No matter what, if he can be the Chief Instructor of the Azure Dragon Combat Team, even if he’s younger, there must be a good reason for it."

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to tell Lu Yanfei the truth, but Lu Yaozong had specifically instructed that the matter of Qin Chuan serving as the Chief Instructor of the Azure Dragon Combat Team must never be known by Lu Yanfei.

Lu Yanwu still vividly remembers that day by the Lu Family’s clear spring, when Lu Yaozong seriously said, "Your brother has been the center of attention and praise since childhood due to his outstanding martial talent, and he has never really faced any setbacks as he grew up."

"If this continues, once he encounters a significant crisis, he will have a hard time accepting it and might even be unable to recover."

"I had been considering creating some setbacks for him but hadn’t thought of a better way. Now that Qin Chuan has agreed to be the Chief Instructor of the Azure Dragon Combat Team, it’s a great opportunity."

"I understand your brother. Once he finds out that the country bumpkin in his eyes is actually the Chief Instructor of the Azure Dragon Combat Team, he will definitely refuse to join the Azure Dragon Combat Team."

"Therefore, you must not let your brother know that Qin Chuan is the Chief Instructor of the Azure Dragon Combat Team. Once your brother joins the Azure Dragon Combat Team and realizes that Qin Chuan is truly skilled, it will surely ignite his fighting spirit and make him even stronger!"

As Lu Yanwu was imagining the scene when Lu Yanfei and Qin Chuan would meet in the Azure Dragon Combat Team, Lu Yanfei rubbed her head again, smiling and saying, "Do you think your brother is still a child? Wouldn’t I understand that principle?"

"Brother will be going to the Azure Dragon Combat Team for formal special training in a few days, but I need to go to the Battle Domain Headquarters for pre-training studies tomorrow."

"Now that Yanwu has grown up, you’ll need to take care of our family on behalf of Brother when I’m not around."

Saying this, Lu Yanfei’s eyes slightly reddened.

Compared to Lu Yanfei’s sadness about leaving home, Lu Yanwu was somewhat excited and anticipatory, patting her own chest and solemnly saying, "A true man aspires to travel far and make his mark! Brother, you go ahead and rest assured to join the Azure Dragon Combat Team; I will strive to shoulder the responsibilities of our family."

"Good sister!"

...

If Lu Yanfei knew what his sister was feeling now, he would probably be devastated.

While Lu Yanfei was feeling sentimental, far away in the Song Family mansion in East Sea Province, Jiangcheng City, there was a scene of excitement.

Song Qingshan was flushed with excitement, his eyes reddened as he looked at Qin Chuan and asked, "If I haven’t misunderstood, are you saying that you can restore my cultivation to its former state?"

Sun Xiude and Dongfang Yu, who Qin Chuan had specifically asked for, and Luo Changsheng, the three Divine Doctors, were also looking at Qin Chuan with faces full of surprise and expectancy.

Qin Chuan nodded and said, "The reason your Martial Path has been completely wasted is that you consumed an Explosive Yuan Pill at the Energizing Skill Middle Stage Realm, when the minimum requirement for taking it is the Energizing Skill Peak. That you have only lost your Martial Path is already a stroke of luck amidst misfortune."

"The reason you can erupt with combat power far beyond your own cultivation level shortly after taking the Explosive Yuan Pill is because it burns all the spiritual energy inside your body, causing severe overexertion and destroying the martial foundation. In minor cases, one’s Martial Path is completely wasted, but in severe cases, it leads to death."

"Since the martial foundation has been destroyed, then rebuild the foundation!"

"However, after successfully rebuilding the foundation, one can only start over with martial cultivation..."

At these words, Song Qingshan was so overjoyed he was close to tears. If Qin Chuan hadn’t stopped him, he would have already knelt down to express his thanks.

He had thought his life had reached its end and that there was no hope for further cultivation, yet unexpectedly, there was still a chance.

He said excitedly, "As long as I can continue to cultivate, I am willing to pay any price!"

Qin Chuan understood Song Qingshan’s excited feelings and continued, "Elder Song, don’t get too happy too soon. Rebuilding the foundation requires reconstructing the Dantian and the Extraordinary Channels and Eight Meridians. The process will involve unbearable pain. Only if your heart is as firm as a rock and you withstand the utmost pain of rebuilding the foundation will you succeed."

"Once the process of rebuilding the foundation starts, it cannot be stopped. If you endure it, you succeed in rebuilding the foundation! If you can’t endure, there is only one outcome, and that is death!"

"Based on your current state, I can assure you will live to a hundred years old."

"You should think it over carefully and decide whether or not you want to take this risk."

Qin Chuan’s words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly sobering up Song Qingshan who had just been overwhelmed with excitement.

Luo Changsheng and the others all had faces full of worry.

But no one offered any advice, they all looked at Song Qingshan with complicated expressions.

Such decisions can only be made by Song Qingshan himself.

If he did not rebuild his foundation, Song Qingshan would no longer be able to practice, and he would have to live out his remaining thirty years as a leisurely old man.

But if he could successfully rebuild his martial foundation, he would be able to continue cultivating. The higher his cultivation level, the longer he would live, far surpassing a hundred years as a certainty.

As time passed by, after a full minute of silence, a relieved smile suddenly appeared on Song Qingshan’s face, "Ordinary people living to seventy without diseases already surpass most."

"I have already achieved this, and I’ve lived a more splendid life than those free from illnesses. Even if you asked me to die right now, what would there be to regret?"

"And now, there’s an opportunity, an opportunity for me to live longer and more splendidly. Why would I have any reason to refuse it?"

"Qin Chuan, I’ve thought it through, and I’m willing to rebuild my Martial Path foundation! If I succeed, that would be the best outcome. But even if I fail, I will have no regrets or complaints!"

Luo Changsheng immediately became anxious and said to Song Qingshan, "Elder Song, why don’t you discuss it with your children before you make a decision?"

As long-time close friends, he was naturally worried for his friend.

Song Qingshan just smiled faintly, shook his head, and said, "Having attachments will increase my chances of enduring through it. Don’t worry, Old Luo, I believe I can succeed."

After saying this, he turned to Qin Chuan, his face resolute and serious, "Qin Chuan, let’s begin!"
