The Founder of Qi Cultivation, Reincarnates?

Ghuanyu was looking on with a sour expression that he was trying hard to conceal.

‘Dammit!! This little brat could possibly ruin my plans, he can’t be left alive!!’

As Ghuanyu said that, his eyes flashed with a dangerous light.

On top of the plain pavilion, the crown prince was beaming with joy. From the big smile spreading across his face, one could tell that he was extremely happy to see that his little brother had a Supreme-grade attribute.

However, that was all emotions displayed by him on the surface. What he truly felt within the depths of his heart, was absolute fury.

‘Don’t test my patience little brother.’

As Fu Wei thought that, he stared at Xi Shen with fake happiness on his face. His acting was so superb that it could fool anyone to think that he was extremely happy for his brother.

Turning to his father by his side, Fu Wei said, “Father look, little Shen actually possesses a Supreme-grade attribute. Even if his other attributes fall short, he still has the potential to become a powerful Soul Cultivator. In all of our Li Clan, only first mother-in-law is a Soul Cultivator, and even with her cultivation being at the peak of the Soul Transformation realm, with her music zither she’s able to fight across realms and battle Heavenly Palace realm experts. If little Shen studies hard, I’m sure he would be capable of accomplishing much greater feats.”

As Fu Wei spoke, you could hear the unconcealed joy in his voice.

His words might seem like he was praising Xi Shen but, if a cultivator were to choose between becoming a normal cultivator or a Soul Cultivator, they would absolutely refuse to become a Soul Cultivator.

Soul Cultivators were looked down upon in the cultivation world for being weak. Their only method of fighting was attacking a person’s soul via spiritual attacks, but those can be easily blocked by soul protection magic treasures.

Because of these reasons, Soul Cultivators were seen as weak, or even harsher, useless cultivators.

As Fu Wei said those words, the Emperor did not respond.

Still beaming with, joy Fu Wei turned back to look at the podium.

Xi Shen was currently scowling at the results.

The fact that cultivating like the days of old for merely thirteen years could result in him possessing a Supreme-grade soul pissed him off to no end. 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖

That meant the system created from his research was practically trash compared to the days of old.

The curiosity Xi Shen felt towards knowing his current innate talent completely vanished. He wanted nothing more than to leave this place and go back to drinking his wine.

Without wasting any more time, Xi Shen grumpily stomped over to the other stone pillar that tested comprehension and placed his hand on it.

Everyone who saw his expression couldn’t help but question why he look so upset. He didn’t have the expression someone would have if they found out that one of their attributes was at the legendary Supreme-grade.

With the same impatient look on his face, Xi Shen waited for the stone pillar to test his comprehension grade.

This was done by giving a…

“Hey author, why the hell don’t you just hurry up and get me off this podium?!”

Author: “Ex.. excuse me??”

“Yeah you heard me, just skip all this info dump, and write me walking off the podium.”

Author: “That’s not how this thing works, I have to explain these things to my readers, you…”

“Blah blah blah, whatever, just hurry up and get this over with, or else I’m going to lose my patience.”

Author: “…..”

Author: “Ehem”

This stone pillar tests a person’s comprehension by giving them a Low-level martial art technique to comprehend, and after a specific amount of time, it determines their grade by how profound their comprehension of it is.

The technique that appeared in Xi Shen’s mind was a...

“Too much info dumb!!”

Author: “…..”

As the technique appeared within Xi Shen's mind, he only took a glance at it before the pillar started shaking.

Seeing this everyone became stunned.

The process of testing one’s comprehension should have the longest to complete, but from the looks of Xi Shen’s own, it was over in mere seconds.

“What’s happening, is the comprehension stone pillar malfunctioning too?!”

The fact that Xi Shen took so long on the soul grade test when it should have been the quickest, and took little time on the comprehension test when it should have been the longest, made everyone dumbfounded.

As the pillar shook uncontrollably, a dazzling orange color radiated from it. Then, within the blink of an eye that color changed to green, then blue, then violet.

Xi Shen now possessed two Supreme-grade attributes that stunned everybody.

“Oh my god!! the second prince ac..ac..actually has two Supreme-grade attributes!!! No one in the history of the Maple Continent has ever possessed two Supreme-grade attributes, the second prince is a once in lifetime heavenly genius!!”

The uproar from everyone was even louder than before.

Ghuanyu was half out of his seat with his eyes bulging out of his head, he couldn’t believe what he was seeing, a matter of fact he refused to believe it.

Not only him Fu Wei’s eyes had gone wide with shock and alarm.

Suddenly feeling a sense of dread, he turn to look at his father and saw that he had a smile on his once expressionless face.

Fu Wei turn back to look at Xi Shen with a look of hatred, but before this emotion could overtake his expression, he force out a smile and said, “Little brother actually possess two Supreme-grade attributes, I should have suspected that his comprehension grade was similar to mine, after all, he had easily comprehended all the Basic-level martial arts techniques that caught his eye.”

As Fu Wei said that, he placed his hand behind his back and clenched his fist so hard his knuckles turned white.

Back on the podium, Xi Shen ignored the commotion he caused and headed for the last stone pillar that test his foundation.

Like before, Xi Shen hurriedly placed his hand on the stone pillar, trying to get this testing over with.

He did not care in the least bit about what the outcome was, all of this was only testing his innate talent for cultivating Spiritual Qi, what he was cultivating at the moment was the cultivation used in the days of old.

Though he was fumbling around in the dark when it comes to this path of cultivation, he was seeing massive gains with every little improvement he made.

But with that said, it necessarily didn't mean he wouldn't try Spiritual Qi cultivation, after all, who would be more fit to cultivate using that system other than him?

He didn't want to rely on the days of old cultivation too much either. He could still remember how all the cultivators back in his time acted, it was as if they had all been brainwashed into zealous followers of heaven without a mind of their own.

After reaching the pinnacle of their cultivation and becoming the laws of heaven, they were practically trapped under its control. Xi Shen will rather die than become like that, he would cultivate using the heavens way, but he would use it as a supplement for his Spiritual Qi cultivation.

Defying the heavens was his main goal in this life. Why it had allowed him to see and comprehend the laws, he did not care, he will succeed in toppling the heavens one way or the other.

When Xi Shen placed his palm on the protruding square, everyone looked on with curiosity.

They all thought to themselves that no matter the level of his foundation grade, Xi Shen’s name would spread throughout the Maple Continent and even beyond its borders. His future accomplishments in the cultivation world will become legends that would be told by generations to come.

Yes, no matter what his foundation grade was, even if it was only at the Earth-grade or the Sky-grade, Xi Shen's cultivation talent would be beyond anyone else in his generation, practically unmatched.

The only problem was that when Xi Shen placed his hand on the stone pillar, and after waiting for a while, nothing happened.

The runes on the stone pillar just flashed for a second before becoming unresponsive. f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

“……”

“……”

The once noisy crowd turned to a pin drop silence with stupefied expressions covering their faces.

Xi Shen took his hand off the stone pillar and began walking away.

‘Finally, this stupid test is over.’

'Though, not having a foundation would be a problem in the future since it prevents me from cultivating Spiritual Qi.'

As Xi Shen thought that, he suddenly scoffed in his heart.

Lack of foundation? That didn't matter to him, he was the one who had discovered this method of cultivation in the first place, he could easily find a way to resolve it.
