Book of Disaster

"Your Highness."

The expert who was guarding in the dark spoke in a low voice, as if he had some reservations.

"I'm sorry, but there are many royal family members, and we don't need him. He acted rashly in the southwest and interfered with our plan. He summoned the black dragon without authorization while we were contacting it, and almost caused a big mistake. It's not good for your highness's subsequent plans. Moreover... he hasn't become a saint, he's just a martial ancestor, and I'm afraid he won't be of much help to our subsequent plans."

This master hiding in the dark spoke frankly, which showed that he obviously held a very important position beside the blood-colored robe.

And the top martial arts master seemed to be just an insignificant nobody in his mouth.

"Huh, do you think he's useless?"

The voice of the king in the blood-red robe was filled with unquestionable majesty.

"Or are you questioning this king?"

"My subordinates dare not!"

When the master heard this, he was shocked and felt a chill down his spine.

However, the king in the blood-red robe did not pursue the matter.

He turned around slowly, his eyes penetrating the mist of time, as if he could see the outline of the future.

"I saved him for a reason. The potential in this child is beyond your imagination. He carries the secrets of ancient times - a key to the old world. The battle with the Southwest Black Dragon is just a test of his character, preparing him to become a key piece on my chessboard in the future."

"The key from ancient times?!"

The master lurking in the dark couldn't help but gasp, and a huge wave rose in his heart.

The voice of the king in the blood-red robe was like the cold wind in winter, piercing and calm.

"Yes, our future will be rewritten because of him. This child is not only our trump card, but also our insurance. His true value is far beyond your imagination."

The king in the blood-red robe stood with his hands behind his back, as if he had seen the dawn of victory.

"Also, pass my order to Duke Ji. Since the previous layout failed, it is his turn to take the stage. We cannot leave any hidden dangers. The youngest son of the Bai family must not be allowed to return safely."

There was unquestionable determination in his voice.

"in addition."

The king in the blood-red robe sneered, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, as if there was something meaningful in it.

"Notify 'the One' that it's time for him to take action and join the game."

"As you command, my lord!"

The master in the dark immediately took the order and disappeared into the darkness like a wisp of green smoke.

……

Time passed slowly, and several days passed in the blink of an eye.

After Bai Qi's martial soul evolved, he stayed in the barbarians for a few more days. After thoroughly consolidating his martial arts, he quickly bid farewell to Man Xiong and other barbarians, returned to the southwest training base, and resumed his previous basic training.

With the protection of General Long Wei, Bai Qi and others felt at home in the military camp. After dealing with Sun Zhantian, there were no more Dayu scout cavalry around the southwest base. Everything was calm, as if nothing had happened.

However, despite this, neither Bai Qi, Xu Xuansu, Zhang Chi, nor Zhou Yixian gave up their martial arts practice.

Be prepared for danger in times of peace. The Black Dragon incident is a profound lesson for everyone.

A few days later, in the tent, everyone gathered together for tea and a small gathering after training as usual.

"Oh, Xuansu, there is something. I recently discovered that no matter how I practice, my mental strength and internal strength have not increased at all, and the external vitality will no longer enter my body. You are experienced, do you know what is going on?"

Bai Qi took a sip of tea and placed it on the small rosewood table in front of him and said.

The small table was a gift from General Long Wei. Bai Qi came from another world. Although he was not very proficient in the tea ceremony, he was much better than these rough guys.

So every time at this time, several people would automatically come forward to have some tea, and they all praised the tea brewed by Bai Qi.

"It's not surprising. When you transformed your spiritual power martial soul, you absorbed a large amount of thunder power and reached the peak. You can't go any further. You said that if you practice now, the heaven and earth energy will not enter your body. This is the bottleneck."

"Every realm has its bottleneck, and you are no exception now."

Xu Xuansu smiled slightly, seeming to know Bai Qi's situation completely.

"what!"

The words woke Bai Qi up from his dream. Although he knew that he would encounter a bottleneck sooner or later, he did not expect it to come so soon.

"If you want to break through the bottleneck and further increase your strength, there is only one way."

Xu Xuansu took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

Her posture was elegant. Everyone was drinking tea, but Xu Xuansu's expression and posture were completely different from everyone else's, and it was impossible to learn them.

"what?"

Bai Qi couldn't help but blurt out.

"Advance to Martial Saint!"

Xu Xuansu said.

hum!

As soon as the word "Martial Saint" came out, the atmosphere in the entire tent changed abruptly, as if these two words possessed infinite magic power. Zhang Chi and Zhou Yixian even almost spilled the tea in their hands.

"Martial Saint..."

Zhou Yixian suddenly said, his eyes showing endless melancholy, and Zhang Chi's eyes also revealed a trace of ripples.

Only Bai Qi looked calm. He knew very little about this world and only knew the name of the Martial Saint.

"Why are you guys looking so weird? What exactly is a Martial Saint? What's so special about it? Isn't it just the next level after Martial Sect? Maybe it's a little more powerful and a little faster."

Bai Qi asked.

"hehe."

Xu Xuansu just smiled when he heard this, gently put the Yuqian Longjing tea in his hand back on the tea tray, shook his head, and seemed not surprised at all by Bai Qi's answer.

"Bai Qi, you are wrong. Going from a Martial Master to a Martial Saint is not just as simple as increasing strength and speed."

"Think about it, who can become a martial arts saint? Not only in our Yuan Dynasty, but also in the entire human world, martial arts saints play a vital role. Even though we are all top martial arts masters, or even quasi-saints, in fact, looking at the entire martial arts world, we can only be regarded as ordinary warriors."

"Just like you said just now, the fighter is just a little stronger and a little faster."

"Every empire has a large number of warriors, martial masters, martial masters, and even quasi-saints, but the weight of a martial saint... is completely different. It is a qualitative difference."

As he spoke, Xu Xuansu's expression became much more serious.

"Bai Qi, haven't you noticed? In our Yuan Dynasty, except for special reasons, most people can only enter the court and participate in government affairs and become real dignitaries if they reach the level of Martial Saint. And people like General Long Wei, even if he has served in the army for more than 20 years, are only in the title of general... He can never enter the capital in his life, nor can he enter the real center of power."
