Chapter 189 3-Year-Old Xi Xi Achieves Bone Tempering Great Achievement, Temple God Resonance_2

Your adventure continues at empire

Zhang Ya, who was practicing martial arts, also hurriedly stopped her movements and walked over, greeting him warmly.

Zhang Ya was extremely happy, for she had encountered an acquaintance from Fei Lei City in the Mansion City, feeling as if she had met an old friend in a foreign land.

Li Qingshan, with Big Head Lu Chi, who wore Nezha braids, entered the courtyard.

”Eh? This girl...”

Li Qingshan glanced at Xi Xi, his trip was originally to find Li Che, for he knew Li Cheʼs identity as Bull Demon, so he had important matters to discuss with Li Che.

However, he hadnʼt expected that this casual glance at Xi Xi would bring an unexpected discovery.

”Bone Tempering? Wait a minute... it seems like sheʼs almost at Bone Tempering Great Achievement?! A three-year-old reaching Bone Tempering Great Achievement?”

Even Li Qingshan was taken aback.

How could it be so fast?

He knew that Xi Xi, the Supreme Spiritual Child, was talented, but was it to such an extent?

He had estimated that Xi Xi could undergo Bone Tempering by the age of seven, which was already considered exceptionally talented.

Bone Tempering at seven, coupled with the Divine Sect elixirs, hopeful of undergoing Blood Exchange at nine, stepping into Channel Opening at twelve, and solidifying her Divine Foundation!

If such an achievement were realized, there would be hope of entering the Authentic Divine Sect!

But now, Xi Xi was almost at Bone Tempering Great Achievement at the age of three...

This somewhat overturned Li Qingshanʼs strategic planning for her growth.

According to Li Cheʼs words, it seemed as if a kindergarten student had finished high school curricula...

Was this girl bound for the heavens?

Li Qingshan took a deep breath, his eyes revealing a seriousness, his brows even unconsciously furrowing.

He pondered whether Xi Xi might posses the potential to be possessed by a Temple God or even be reborn as one?

This possibility actually existed, although it was extremely difficult for a Temple God to reincarnate: A bit of the true spirit had to be immortal, and a woman within a hundred miles of the true spiritʼs location had to be giving birth to create the conditions for a Temple Godʼs reincarnation.

Could Xi Xi be such a case?

”It shouldnʼt be possible... The Mysterious Temple outside Fei Lei City is just in the Ten Cities, and its Temple God doesnʼt possess such ability.”

Upon thinking of this, Li Qingshanʼs brows relaxed, but his gaze toward Xi Xi became even more astonished.

That is to say, this girl Xi Xi...

Has no cheat codes, simply relying on innate talent?

Li Che certainly noticed Li Qingshanʼs shock; in fact, Li Che was also quite astonished.

Based on Li Qingshanʼs assessment of Xi Xiʼs talent, Bone Tempering was only possible at the age of seven, but now Xi Xiʼs growth... clearly exceeded the standard.

Why?

Li Che felt that... it was very likely because of the daily grooming of the Immaculate Heart Divinity he provided for Xi Xi and her mother Zhang Ya.

Since obtaining the Dao Fruit of Pure Heart, Li Che hadnʼt missed a single day grooming their bodies.

Immaculate Heart Divinity, pure and flawless, was harmless to the body.

Li Che had thought that through the grooming with the Immaculate Heart Divinity, he could help them extend their lifespans.

But unexpectedly, it seemed to have altered their talents.

Like Zhang Ya, she hadnʼt been practicing the Sinew Transforming posture for long, and although he intentionally gave guidance, her progress was swift; she was close to major accomplishment in Sinew Transforming, and Bone Tempering was not far off.

The talent of Xi Xi was inherently high, and so was Zhang Yaʼs; it could be related to the grooming with the essence of Immaculate Heart Divinity.

Now, Zhang Ya, who was not born as a Spirit Child, even started to sense Divinity...

”This girl has good talent!”

Li Qingshan pinched his beard, looking toward Li Che.

”The spring equinox is upon us, and the Divine Sect Branchʼs admissions test is about to begin. This time, the test involves thirteen cities under the jurisdiction of Golden Light Prefecture, including three Supreme Spiritual Children, more than twenty Upper Class Spiritual Children, and hundreds of Mid-grade and lower Spiritual Children.”

”All these Spiritual Children who have stood out from tens of thousands of children have already rushed to Golden Light Prefecture City, preparing for the Divine Sectʼs recruitment test on the spring equinox.”

Li Qingshan smiled, ”The three Supreme Spiritual Children were all selected by me. Of course, even among the Supreme Spiritual Children, there are levels of higher and lower, which I have determined based on the thickness of the Purple Qi Divine Pillar...”

”Ah, except for you, old Spirit Child!”

Li Qingshan, as if thinking of something, gave Li Che an odd look, dropping a hint.

Li Cheʼs face darkened, as if he gave a hoot?

Did he, Li Che, care to compare himself with three children?!

Li Qingshan, you neednʼt be so accurate in reading people!

Li Che pursed his lips.

Li Qingshan continued, ”I had originally placed Xi Xi as the second ranked, with the first being a youth from Xianghuancheng of the Noble Families, named Huang Si Xiang, who has Innate Divine Strength unrivaled and a very high Divine Talent.”

Li Cheʼs eyes narrowed: ”What level is he, having a higher talent than my Xi Xi?”

Li Qingshan just felt Li Che was really brash.

”That Huang Si Xiang is not even the one with the best talent, remember, these are just the Supreme Spiritual Children of the thirteen cities under the jurisdiction of Golden Light Prefecture...”

Li Che raised an eyebrow: ”And Mansion City is not included?”

”Of course not, Mansion City has the Five Great Clans, and itʼs much easier for Clan Juniors to be born as Spirit Children, nurtured with treasures from a young age—Supreme Spiritual Children are not uncommon, having won at birth.”

Li Che fell silent, indeed, that made sense...

The Five Great Clans had numerous strong individuals, with the bloodline inheritance of the Divine Minister Ancestor, and the nourishment with heavenly and earthly treasures even before birth, indeed having a head start.

...

...

Li Qingshan and Li Che went to the study room together, where they brewed hot tea, drinking and chatting.

”The Five Great Clans... willing to send their talented juniors to the Divine Sect?”

Li Che, suddenly thinking of something, curiously asked.

”The Five Great Clans are different from the youth of other cities. Take a small clan like those in Fei Lei City, having a Divine Foundation is already the ceiling, and once the Divine Foundation passes away, it signifies the beginning of the clanʼs decline.”

”Therefore, these city-based clans keep their talented youth to cultivate them as Divine Foundations to protect the family and maintain their status in the city.”

”If they send them to the Divine Sect, there wonʼt be any news for twenty or thirty years, and the sense of belonging to the family is not strong, so even if they become Divine Foundations, they might not be willing to return to their clans...”
