Capítulo 966: Chapter 60: The Flying Dragon Soars, the True Dragon Falls (6000 )_4
A group of relatives cautiously followed behind him.
He was one hundred and fifty-four years old this year. The wife he married and the concubines he took back in the day had all died of old age, and he did not remarry.
His two sons and daughter had also passed away.
The relatives who were still alive were at least a generation removed from him and did not dare to approach him closely.
Only a young man, who seed full of heroic spirit, had the courage to approach Qin Mingli and look up at him:
“Grandfather, the set of boxing techniques you taught last year, I have mastered. I’ll show it to you later.”
The young man’s na was Qin Chengxi, a generation below the Crown Prince and the Eldest Prince. In a few days, he would turn twenty-two, and he was at the Qi Transformation Peak as a martial master.
Stepping into the Tao Foundation Stage before the age of thirty was considered exemplary.
Doing so before the age of twenty-three was considered suprely distinguished.
With the cultivation progress and talent Qin Chengxi had shown so far, he undoubtedly possessed the posture of an exemplary talent!
In Qin Mingli’s son and grandson’s generations, there hadn’t been a single Martial Arts Master.
It was only in Qin Chengxi’s generation that he saw hope, which is why he treasured this great-grandson.
Upon hearing Qin Chengxi’s words, a smile finally appeared on Qin Mingli’s stern face.
He reached out and patted Qin Chengxi’s shoulder:
“Alright, show later.”
The group of relatives behind them saw this scene and imdiately relaxed a lot, exchanging smiles.
Within such a powerless Prince Mansion, there was really no need for intrigues.
So the people inside the mansion were more harmonious than those in other grand estates.
It was rare for soone promising to appear among their descendants, and they were genuinely happy about it.
If in the future Qin Chengxi could also beco a Martial Saint, he could ensure peace and prosperity for their descendants for hundreds of years!
Soon, the group reached a very spacious martial field.
Although the Emperor was wary of the Prince Li Mansion, the resources and treatnt given were top-notch.
The entire Prince Li Mansion was so vast that it was practically a city within a city!
In front of Qin Mingli, Qin Chengxi demonstrated a set of boxing.
He really had talent, already showing the initial Fist Intent.
After watching, Qin Mingli nodded:
“Not bad, but at this stage, your focus shouldn’t be on perfecting martial arts but on completing ‘Unity’ as soon as possible.”
After speaking, he led Qin Chengxi into a secret chamber to guide him in cultivation.
The others, seeing this, no longer followed and went about their own activities.
“Grandfather, how long do you think I have left to complete ‘Unity’? Do I have the potential to beco suprely distinguished?”
In the secret chamber, after Qin Mingli had finished guiding Qin Chengxi, Qin Chengxi asked expectantly.
Qin Mingli smiled: “If you can accomplish everything I said just now, within a year, you have the potential to break through.”
“Yes, I certainly won’t let down your expectations!”
Qin Chengxi nodded vigorously.
If he breaks through within a year, he will indeed have the stature of the suprely distinguished!
“Grandfather, in your opinion, what is the difference between and that Marquis Jing’an?”
Qin Chengxi suddenly asked curiously.
Qin Mingli looked at him: “Why, do you want to beco like Li Fei?”
Qin Chengxi shook his head, serious: “I just want to beco soone like you!”
Looking at his great-grandson’s resolute gaze, Qin Mingli suddenly felt a bit dazed.
Then his expression beca stern again:
“Becoming soone like isn’t necessarily a good thing.”
“Ah?”
Qin Chengxi was stunned, not understanding what his grandfather ant.
To beco a Human Martial Saint, is that not good enough?
“Nothing, you can leave now. Grandfather needs to cultivate.”
Qin Mingli said.
“Yes.”
Qin Chengxi stood up and exited the chamber.
In the chamber, Qin Mingli’s gaze grew increasingly cold.
Looking back through history, any ambitious peak strong person would not be content to stop here.
Qing Xu, to take that step, did not hesitate to use the entire Taoist’s fate as a wager, aiming to establish an Earthly Taoist Country.
Yun Shu, to take that step, bound his Dao with the Great Lan Dynasty, just to rise with the dragon.
Wenren Zheng, to take that step, had been preparing his forces for years, never giving up his ambitions for the West Continent!
Even Qi Ming, who had already been executed, had planned his path above the peak before his breakthrough.
If he could single-handedly defeat the Great Lan Dynasty, making the five-hundred-year empire fall, Qi Ming would have the chance to take that step!
Qin Mingli’s ti after the breakthrough wasn’t long, and he hadn’t found the way forward.
Until Qing Xu True Monarch’s rebellion, he was suddenly called into the palace to aid the Emperor, collaborating with Ye Ze’an and Wenren Zheng to operate national fortune and support the distant Yun Shu.
That day, he learned from the Emperor the possibility above the peak.
From that day on, he understood Yun Shu and Wenren Zheng’s true pursuit.
But whether it’s rising with the dragon or leading the troops to sweep across the West Continent to establish an unprecedented ‘martial arts’,
It’s all irrelevant to Qin Mingli.
He’s not a magician and can’t follow Yun Shu’s path.
Even if the Great Lan Dynasty truly expeditions to the West Continent in the future, the commander leading the troops would never be him.
So even if he switched to military Dao cultivation, it would be aningless.
As for other paths to ascend above the peak.
Not to ntion whether Qin Mingli could find it, even if he did, whoever was Emperor at that ti would never allow him to have a chance for another step!
That’s why Qin Mingli would tell Qin Chengxi earlier that becoming soone like him isn’t necessarily a good thing.
Even though he was the Imperial Uncle, with a suprely noble status.
Even though he had outstanding talent, a Human Martial Saint.
Yet he couldn’t have what he most yearned for.
If Li Fei was a newly ascending dragon.
Then Qin Mingli was indeed a true dragon of this world!
But, even a true dragon has its mourning.
