10 Minutes later.


In the living room.


“What do we do?” Nan Cheng looked at her husband anxiously.


Lan Xiao chuckled bitterly. “I have no clue as well. We can only take one step at a time and pay close attention to him. If we are truly unable to handle it, then the only option is to report to our superiors. What I’m worried about the most is that the changes on him might harm him instead.”


“No, no, we cannot inform our superiors,” Nan Cheng replied in horror. “If we do, they will definitely take Xuanyu away. That cannot happen, Xuanyu is my life!”


Lan Xiao sighed. “We will have to go with the flow. I hope that no other changes will occur.”


Nan Cheng sighed. “Will you still be guiding him on spirit power training?”


Lan Xiao: “It still has to be done. We cannot forbid him just because of this. Instead, we ought to guide him patiently and more cautiously. Since his situation is so unique, it is even more important for us to guide him. If we hide away from the problem and on the chance that it erupts, there would be even more problems.


“I initially thought to enroll him into an ordinary Spirit Master institute which would not be conspicuous. But now, I feel that it would be better for him to attend a better Spirit Master institute. There will be more talented geniuses there; even if he performed differently from the others, he would not stand out too much.”


Nan Cheng: “We will go with that. You must have thought far ahead on this compared to me.”


After breakfast, Lan Xiao started the first lesson on guiding Lan Xuanyu.


“Son, Father will teach you a technique called the Mysterious Heaven skill. This skill originates from the Tang Sect and was originally a secret technique passed down within the Tang Sect.


“About seven thousand years ago, the Tang Sect decided to publicize the fundamentals of the Mysterious Heaven skill which was only taught to its members previously, thus allowing more Spirit Masters to use this method to train and raise the quality of the entire population in order to prepare for the interstellar migration.


“The Tang Sect’s great contribution for the sake of the Federation was thus written into the annals once more. If there is an opportunity in the future, you can consider joining the Tang Sect.


“Although it will be a very challenging and difficult task, out of all the organizations, the Tang Sect has the least records of entering the Heavenly Stairs.”


Not fully understanding his father’s words, Lan Xuanyu listened on as Lan Xiao began explaining the Mysterious Heaven skill in detail.


The Mysterious Heaven skill came from the Tang Sect and had a history of over ten thousand years.


In these ten thousand years, the Tang Sect had produced countless outstanding heroes and almighty beings that appeared in every generation. At present, Tang Sect had become the most ancient sect in existence.


They possessed an influential and critical position in the Federation.


One could only imagine the importance of using the Mysterious Heaven skill as their foundation.


Although the speed at which to cultivate the Mysterious Heaven skill wasn’t fast, it built up an extremely stable foundation and was the method that the majority of Spirit Masters chose to learn.


“That is the path of cultivating the foundation. Following that, I will use my own spirit power to guide your training. Throughout this guidance, you only need to consciously follow my spirit power. Do not resist and focus.”


“Oh.” Lan Xuanyu was after all a six-year-old and naturally listened to his father.


Lan Xiao had his son seated back facing in front of him. He placed both palms on the little child’s back and carefully instigated his spirit power into his son’s body and started to navigate through Lan Xuanyu’s meridians.


Little Xuanyu sensed a warm flow within his body that moved slowly and consciously followed along with the warm flow that was his father’s spirit power.


Lan Xiao moved his spirit power extremely slowly for Lan Xuanyu to memorize the meridians, and this warm sensation also caused Lan Xuanyu to feel an indescribable comfort.


A complete orbit took an exact hour.


“How was it?” Lan Xiao opened his eyes and asked his son.


“Extremely comfortable,” Lan Xuanyu replied.


Lan Xiao laughed. “Who asked you if it was comfortable, Father is asking if you’ve memorized everything.”


Little Xuanyu tilted his head to the side and thought for a moment before answering, “I think so. Father, will this make my spirit stronger? What happens when my spirit becomes stronger?”


Lan Xiao chuckled. “Father is unsure as well!


“But you have to grasp this on your own. Father will bring a spirit soul for you afterward and you can try merging with it. As a Spirit Master, your spirit has to absorb a spirit ring at every 10 ranks to promote to the next realm.


“In ancient times, spirit rings came from spirit beasts, and only by killing a spirit beast are we able to earn the spirit ring to strengthen ourselves. But that is a cruel method which resulted in the hatred between us humans and beasts.


“After many generations of research, our researchers finally invented the spirit soul about twenty thousand years ago.


“In its beginning, spirit souls were obtained from spirit beasts as well, but after the continuous development, the Spirit Pagoda Organization produced manmade spirit soul that finally resolved the conflict between man and beast.


“Now, as long as we have spirit souls, Spirit Masters are also able to advance to the next realm when we require them.


“But Father hasn’t decided on what spirit soul to prepare for you.”


Lan Xuanyu had the Innate Full Spirit Body which meant that his spirit power was already at the tenth rank. To advance to a higher tier, he would require a spirit ring.


But Lan Xiao was unable to verify what spirit his son had, and each spirit ring would propel the spirit into different paths and advancements.


Every spirit ring provided Spirit Masters with spirit skills that were the fundamental abilities for the Spirit Masters. The strength of said spirit skills would be directly related to the compatibility between the spirit ring and spirit.


For example, if Lan Xuanyu’s spirit was truly a Blue Silver Grass, then providing plant-related spirit souls or spirits similar in terms of structure would be most beneficial. For example, snakes, and etc.


At first, Lan Xiao decided that it would be best for Lan Xuanyu to obtain spirit skills in consideration of toughness, toxicity, and strength.


But Lan Xuanyu’s Blue Silver Grass was unique, let alone his background.


This caused Lan Xiao to hesitate.


Fortunately, with the Mysterious Heaven skill, the spirit power could be accumulated.


Even without additional spirit rings to train for the short future, the results of cumulative training before obtaining a spirit ring would accumulate and provide benefits after obtaining a spirit ring. The training would not go to waste.


“Father, what can a Blue Silver Grass do?” Lan Xuanyu was extremely curious about his own spirit.


He knew that his parents were Spirit Masters, and thus, he subconsciously felt that Spirit Masters were nothing special.


But this spirit was something new to him.


“That is what you need to grasp and find out on your own.” Lan Xiao smiled.


“How do I do that?” Little Xuanyu queried.


At such an age, he naturally had many doubts and questions. Fortunately, his parents were the best teachers available.


Lan Xiao: “You have to release it, feel it, observe it, and maybe, it might tell you something.”


“Oh oh.” Little Xuanyu excitedly focused on himself as he extended both his hands out, and with a “sou”, two twirls of Blue Silver Grass extended out once again.


Lan Xiao laughed. “Don’t be too anxious! Relax, and cultivate the Mysterious Heaven skill first…”


Right as he said that, he choked.


In his vision, the most inconceivable thing had occurred.


“Hm, Father, what are these two circles?” Lan Xuanyu looked at the obvious changes occurring to the two twirls of Blue Silver Grass and asked with curiosity.


At that moment, the Blue Silver Grass in his palms had turned into something completely different as compared to the day before.


Leaning against the two twirls of Blue Silver Grass were white halos that hovered up and down in rhythm.


That released warm and white light.


And under the illumination of the white light, distinct changes occurred respectively to the two twirls of Blue Silver Grass.


The surface of the Blue Silver Grass on his left palm grew with fine silver veins that resembled creepers. The faint silver color of the veins was not striking at all.


On the other hand, the Blue Silver Grass surface had gold veins that were slightly larger, but its glow was subtle.


If not for Lan Xiao’s careful inspection, he might have missed the two colors.


But to Lan Xiao, it was the most shocking change!
