Chapter 0019 Sword Intent in the Rain

　　In the next few days, the news of the Xuan Ling Sect's imminent arrival was completely spread throughout the entire Linshui City. 　　This news undoubtedly caused the disciples of the Qin and Fang families to completely boil over, and one by one, they all began to get up early in the morning and work hard to cultivate, striving to further their cultivation in the days when the Xuan Ling Sect would be arriving. 　　Not only that, the senior members of the Qin Family and the Fang Family were also nervously preparing for something. 　　It was just that none of this had the slightest relation to Qin Nan. 　　After Qin Nan had awakened his Yellow Grade Eighth Grade Martial Soul, he did not slack off in the slightest and entered into a tedious and lengthy cultivation. 　　This cultivation lasted for three whole days and three nights, and Qin Nan did not move the slightest bit, just like a madman. 　　Only to see the spiritual qi transformed into a big snake that had condensed into substance, constantly drilling down and roaming around in Qin Nan's body, emitting a dull explosion sound, as if there was a mass of strength that quietly exploded in the body. 　　After these three days and three nights of cultivation, coupled with the Yellow Grade Eighth Grade Martial Soul, Qin Nan's aura at this moment had become incomparably sharp, with his vigor shooting out in all directions, vaguely reaching a point of condensation. 　　Suddenly, Qin Nan's eyes opened, and in his eyes, a mysterious light flashed. 　　"The fourth level of Body Tempering is to temper one's internal organs, allowing the suppleness of one's internal organs to increase by one degree." 　　"Then the Fifth Level of Body Tempering is to raise the skin, flesh, sinews, bones, and internal organs, all at one level, becoming even more powerful." 　　"If one reaches the Fifth Level of Body Tempering, one would be able to completely achieve, invulnerability to swords and spears, and invulnerability to water and fire!" 　　At this moment, the many doubts in Qin Nan's mind were quietly solved and clarified. 　　Of course, the reason for such a smooth understanding was entirely due to the Yellow Grade 8 War God's Soul, as well as Qin Nan's three days and three nights of practicing like a madman, which had built up to the point where the water was ready to flow. 　　"Now, break through the Fifth Level of Body Tempering in one breath!" 　　Qin Nan let out a low gulp, his body's aura rising steeply, and the War God's Soul suspended behind his back erupted with an even more powerful and profound suction force. 　　In this instant, it was as if Qin Nan himself had transformed into a gigantic vortex, swallowing that spiritual qi in all directions into his body in one gulp. 　　Under the rush of this majestic spiritual qi, Qin Nan's entire physical body immediately trembled uncontrollably. 　　Boom Boom Boom! 　　Explosions continuously came from within Qin Nan's body, Qin Nan gritted his teeth, enduring the pain brought about by the enormous spiritual qi washing over his body, his eyes scarlet red, like an enraged beast, refusing to bow his head, refusing to let go of his mouth, and not even uttering a single word of ''pain''. 　　One hour ...... two hours ...... four hours ...... 　　Until a full five hours had passed, Qin Nan's body suddenly trembled, and the pain in his body, like a tidal wave, disappeared into thin air, and was replaced by an extremely majestic force that surged up from all sides of his body. 　　"This is the ...... Body Tempering Fifth Level!" 　　Qin Nan stood up, his face slightly delighted, he couldn't help but squeeze his fists, feeling the surging and raging power within his body. 　　If the fourth level of Body Tempering was a small metamorphosis of the Body Tempering Realm, then the fifth level of Body Tempering was once again crossing into another level on top of the fourth level of Body Tempering. 　　At this level, not only was the physique enhanced, but also the strength, six senses, and so on, all climbed over to another level. 　　It was no exaggeration to say that if Qin Nan ran into Qin Changkong now, he only needed to exert half of his strength to completely crush the other party. 　　"Nan'er." At this time, Qin Tian walked in, and at a glance, he saw Qin Nan, who was filled with joy, and couldn't help but smile, "Why, what good things have happened?" 　　Tie San, who was following behind Qin Tian, was also slightly suspicious, instinctively sizing up Qin Nan, feeling that the Qin Nan at this time was different from the usual, but this difference was not known to have occurred. 　　Suddenly, Tie San snapped out of his senses and said in a shocked voice, "You've broken through the fifth level of Body Tempering?" 　　Qin Tian, who was beside him, heard these words and immediately surveyed Qin Nan, and with this serious survey, even though he was the number one expert of the Qin Clan, he couldn't help but show a shocked look on his face. 　　Qin Nan ...... really broke through to the fifth level of Body Tempering! 　　This is the distance from the awakening of the martial soul, but only with a short half a month's time ah, a while ago broke through to the body hardening fourth weight, has been enough to appalling, and now actually broke through to the body hardening fifth weight? 　　This was simply too shocking. 　　Qin Nan looked at the expressions of the two of them and immediately hastened to explain, ''Father, Third Uncle, my strange encounter in the Dragon Tiger Mountain Range was obtaining a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Pill. A while ago, I broke through to the fourth level of Body Tempering and had not yet completely refined it, and only in the past few days have I broken through to the fifth level of Body Tempering by relying on the residual medicinal power." 　　This explanation, which Qin Nan had thought of long ago, made sense. 　　When Qin Tian and Tie San heard this, their faces eased and they did not suspect anything. 　　If it were not for this Heaven and Earth Elixir, with this terrifying promotion speed of Qin Nan, the two of them could not believe that Qin Nan's Martial Soul, which was only at the first grade of the Yellow Grade, was only at the first grade of the Yellow Grade. 　　Thinking of this, Qin Tian and Tie San were also a little envious of Qin Nan's good fortune; to be able to make a breakthrough to the Fifth Level of Body Tempering in half a month, this Heaven and Earth Elixir must be exceptionally precious and extremely hard to come by. 　　"By the way, Father, Third Uncle, you guys are looking for me today?" Qin Nan digressed and asked. 　　Only then did Qin Tian slap his head, remembering what he had come for, he couldn't help but laugh and scold, "Of course I'm looking for you for something, tomorrow is the Xuan Spirit Sect's Disciple Recruitment Ceremony, and the entire Qin Family and the Fang Family are going crazy with their busy schedules, and it's just you, alone, who is sneakily hiding in the courtyard as if you're doing nothing to carry out your cultivation." 　　Tie San also interjected with a smile from the side, "So, Young Master Qin Nan, the main reason why the Family Head and I came today is to ask you, do you intend to participate in the Xuan Ling Sect's Disciple Recruitment Ceremony?" 　　"Participate, of course I will." Qin Nan did not hesitate and said, "Father, Third Uncle, you can rest assured now, with this cultivation, even if I am unable to become a disciple of the Xuan Spirit Sect, no one in the youth generation will be able to injure me." 　　When Qin Tian and Tie San heard this, they both nodded their heads, a cultivation of the fifth level of Body Tempering, when placed in the Qin Family or the Fang Family, it was a top-notch existence that no one could compare to. 　　In terms of cultivation alone, Qin Nan was afraid that he had no opponent. 　　Qin Tian let go of the worry in his heart, then said: "This Xuan Ling Sect disciple recruitment, is the Qin family and the Fang family jointly held, respectively divided into two games, the first game is the Fang family, the Qin family, each of them discharged thirty disciples, for the drawing of lots, and then the competition, the winning top five, can only participate in the second level. The second level, as you must have guessed, is to release the martial soul and check the level of the martial soul. As for how many people will be selected in the end, this person from the Xuan Ling Sect, has yet to reveal it." 　　"I see... ...... "Qin Nan nodded and suddenly thought of something and asked, "Then where is the location where it will be held?" 　　"The location where it will be held, on the other hand, is at the Fang Family." Qin Tian said, unimpressed. 　　Qin Nan could not help but subconsciously frown. 　　The Disciple Recruitment Ceremony, held within the Fang Clan, although there was nothing special about it, but in connection with the Fang Clan's hiding of Fang Rulong, it made Qin Nan more and more certain that the Fang Clan was definitely plotting something. 　　Nine times out of ten, it was trying to take advantage of this Disciple Recruitment Ceremony to make a move against the Qin Family. 　　Qin Nan figured out the reason for this, and his heart was incomparably calm, not having the slightest worry at all, nor did he speak out to remind Qin Tian and the others. 　　Even if the Fang Clan really had a plot, it was not enough to fear. 　　"By the way, Qin Nan, from what the family head said, the last time you defeated Qin Changkong, the technique you used was the Shocking Thunder Blade?" At this time, Tie San, who was on the side, suddenly opened his mouth and asked. 　　"Yes, Third Uncle." Qin Nan replied. 　　"That would be great, it just so happens that Tie San also cultivates the Surprising Thunder Blade Technique, in which there are quite a few epiphanies as well, so I'll give it to the young master to go and watch it right now, and I hope that it will be able to help the young master." Tie San smiled and took out an ancient book from his bosom. 　　Qin Nan was shocked at his words, he obviously did not expect that Tie San actually practiced the Thundering Thunder Blade Technique as well. 　　"You brat, hurry up and take it, your Third Uncle has been immersed in the Shocking Thunder Blade Technique for decades, and has reached the realm of the unity of the human blade. Now that your third uncle has taken out his epiphanies, it's really a bargain for you brat." Qin Tian said from the side. 　　"Human Blade Unity?" The look of astonishment on Qin Nan's face intensified, but next, without any pretense, he took the ancient book and then bowed to Tie San, solemnly saying, "Thank you for your third uncle's generosity, Qin Nan is grateful!" 　　In the midst of the world of martial arts, the experiences summarized by a strong person's perceptions of martial arts were extremely precious. 　　It was because with these experiences, your martial skills, would be more profoundly realized, and even cross into a higher realm. 　　Therefore, this gift from Tie San was really valuable. 　　Tie San didn't make any pretense, instead, he said, ''Young master, your natural talent in martial arts, since you were a child, no one in the city can compare, it is just right for this cultivation notebook of mine. Right now from the Xuan Ling Sect disciple recruitment ceremony, there is still one day left, next I will stay here, if you have any doubts, you can ask me." 　　"This ...... is good!" After only a slight hesitation, Qin Nan immediately agreed and hurriedly thanked him. 　　For Tie San to personally appear and come to instruct, this was Tie San's intention, hoping to make Qin Nan, at the Disciple Recruitment Ceremony, even stronger. 　　This intention, Qin Nan must follow. 　　"Father, Third Uncle, I'll leave you guys for now." Qin Nan gave a greeting and immediately came to the boulder in the courtyard and began to concentrate on flipping through the ancient book with a mesmerized expression on his face. 　　With regards to martial arts, Qin Nan had always been highly interested, even more so than cultivation. 　　Seeing this scene, Qin Tian and Tie San looked at each other with a bit of helplessness in their eyes, but more than anything else, they were pleased. 　　Even though Qin Nan was a first-grade yellow grade martial soul, so what? Qin Nan had the heart to become stronger and the perseverance to become stronger, and this, alone, was precious and comforting. 　　In the next few moments, Qin Nan completely sank into this ancient book. 　　As Qin Tian had said, Tie San had at least reached the realm of the unity of human swords, and all the insights in it gave Qin Nan the feeling of his eyes lighting up and a village in the darkness. 　　Tie San stood in the courtyard, looking at Qin Nan from time to time, his heart becoming more and more satisfied, but at this time, a thought suddenly popped into Tie San's mind: in a day's time, to what extent could Qin Nan have realized? 　　Immediately, Tie San was dumbfounded, despite Qin Nan's powerful martial arts talent, it was simply impossible for him to make progress in a day's time. 　　Time passed unconsciously, and Qin Nan remained silent in that ancient book. 　　By the time three hours had passed, the color of the sky suddenly changed, countless dark clouds, converging, making this heaven and earth dark and solemn, and in that sky, muffled thunder sounds were faintly heard. 　　Immediately afterward, the sky was like a gate opening, countless amounts of rainwater, instantly pouring down in a majestic manner. 　　"Damn, this weather, how can it change ...... just like that," Tie San couldn't help but curse, but there was nothing he could do about it, so he could only shout towards Qin Nan in a hurry, "Qin Nan, Qin Nan... ..." 　　It wasn't that Tie San insisted on disturbing Qin Nan, but in this thunderstorm weather, thunder, rain, and so on, would interfere with one's cultivation, and would be extremely unfavorable to those caught in the middle of their senses, and would even bring harm. 　　Tie San shouted while his gaze subconsciously looked towards Qin Nan. 　　At this glance, Tie San's entire body was struck by lightning, and his brain rumbled, leaving the sky's violent rain and violent thunderstorms behind in an instant. 　　The only thing that could be seen was that the sky was pouring down with heavy rain, hitting the ground with a snapping sound and splashing water. 　　Qin Nan was holding the ancient book and flipping through the pages, as if he had entered a kind of bewitchment, oblivious to everything around him. 　　On Qin Nan's body, a layer of invisible barriers held up, the rain that fell from the sky, hitting the top ten inches of Qin Nan's head, came to an abrupt end, by the invisible barrier, blocking away. 　　The ten inches around Qin Nan's body seemed to have become a pure land, where fire and water did not invade. 　　However, for Tie San, who had been immersed in the Shocking Thunder Blade Technique for decades, he understood very well that it was not an invisible barrier at all, but ...... blade intent!
