Leylin was back in the Gravity Room training his body while the chip constantly computed various datas together. His gruelling regime and ruthless training inside the room even made Eren cringe but he was very content with Leylin dedication and made sure he had no trouble and distraction.
âCreaakkkâ
The door of the Gravity Room opened, as Harris Wrogan walked in and yelled, âYoung Master, the family head has asked for you to come to the living room.â
âI seeâŠHarris have the guest from Ashdown family arrived?â Leylin glanced at him and asked indifferently.
âY-yes, Ashdown family head Ian Ashdown came with that Neelam Ashdown.â Harris looked at Leylin in suprise as he explained while standing respectfully at the door. These few days he has been very impressed with Leylin and has started to follow him and also gained a portion of resources through him. Harris with many others, especially those who followed him in the journey have been persuaded into Leylinâs own faction and are fairly loyal to him.
To Harris, Leylin have a certain enigmatic charisma and confidence with noble ambience that seem to be able to know everything and have ears, eyes everywhere. His scholary aptitude which was ignored previously is highly respected by them, and his strength only further prompt them to follow him along with his bright future.
Leylin to them is a young, talented, learned and smart person and has all the makings of a future leader, a personality which impresses and infatuate others.
At this point, even Harris is stunned knowing the information channel that Leylin has at his disposal in just few days and his means to get sensitive information.
âIan Ashdown just brought Neelam back from her teacher, Ben parks, in the Cloud Mountain. So they came to visit us on the way and discuss the Martial Competition with the family head.â
The Ashdown Family was one of the five big families in the Merchant Union, and was quite close to the Lenoir Family.
The Ashdown Family possessed the Shadow Martial Spirit. During fights, there would be clones beside them. Many skilled family warriors could even create seven or eight clones during a fight. These clones could move and make different actions in order to confuse the enemy.
As the family members possessed the Shadow Martial Spirit, they would be in a beneficial position from the very beginning.
The opponents would mistakenly attack the clones, so the warriors could kill them easily.
The Shadow Martial Spirit was not only beneficial for fights, but also made a big difference when one needed to escape.
Once the warriors were threatened, they would create several clones of themselves and run in different directions. If they had only one enemy, that person could only choose one direction to chase them in.
After he caught up, he would find out that it was just a clone, and their real body had already ran off somewhere else.
If the real body was chased, they could create more clones and make the enemy guess again.
One would break down if he came across a Ashdown Family warrior and had to find the real body to chase.
âA very interesting martial spirit they possess and more importantly this little lass named Neelam could potentially be my first recruit. She has all the makings to be a good puppet, she is talented loyal and possess deep infatuation for the outside world. She can be easily manipulated tooâŠ.Lets see if she has the it factor or not.â
Leylin thought as the bright flash crossed his mind.
Berkan and she were born on the same day and both their grandfather nearly got those two engaged. But on the third day after her birth, she turned out to possess the Shadow Martial Spirit, while he didnât, then two sides both chose to be silent about it.
Neelam is incredibly talented and intelligent, but it is also said that she is rather lazy, and not into Martial Arts. Her accomplishment was the result of her family pushing her. Even so, she trains much faster than average warriors. Seventeen and the Second Sky of the Human Level!
Even Kyle Crystal has also reached the Second Sky of Human Level at seventeen, but he kept training so hard. While Neelam kept sleeping and fooling aroundâŠ
Neelam was very lazy. She didnât like hard training, but was into art, nature, tea ceremony, astrology and so onâŠ
Her hobbies varied. Though she didnât train hard, she could easily break the levels, and managed to reach the Second Sky of Human Level with the help of her incredible talent.
âOkay.â Leylin nodded and went inside to take a quick shower and casually picked up a loose creame colored warrior uniform and put it on. He strode out of the Gravity Room, âLetâs go.â
âYoung master, are you not going to get properly dressed? Neelam is well known for her talent in the Merchant Union. Oliver and Ethan and some other young masters are all around her these days, trying to impress her?â
Leylin smiled and said, âThat girl is a genius right Harris?â
âAbsolutely!â
Harris nodded and affirmed, âOtherwise, Ben parks in the Cloud Mountain wouldnât have insisted on teaching her and taken her to the Cloud Mountain after seeing her for the first time three years ago. Ben is an expert of the Sky Level, which is very rare in the Merchant Union, Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire. It is said that even Crystal family head has been beaten by him.â
Leylin looked indifferent, âIt doesnât matter even if I try to appear presentable, to a genius itâs too average of a scenery. It would be more effective to just show her that she has a wider world to seeâŠ.she is still too unpolished, letâs see if she had the credentials to be successful.â
âWhat!?â
âYou donât need to understand, you need to just pay attention to the things I asked about.â
âOkay, Young Master.â
âThe Young Master title sounds so cringey.â Leylin thought to himself as he walked away.
..
In front of the living room, there was a mid-sized garden which contained all sorts of rare plants. There were flowers that bloomed during every season, sending out intoxicating fragrances.
Leylin walked to the front of the garden and saw Neelam at once, who was crowded by several boys.
Among the fresh flowers, she was standing in a beautiful position. Her long, straight legs looked sexy.
In the sunlight, her porcelain-like skin was shining elegantly. On her small, delicate face, her two big eyes were as clear as crystals.
These youths crowded around her like stars that circled the moon. Neelam was holding a watering can and was leisurely watering the flowers, though there was a sign some helplessness in her eyes.
It seemed that she didnât like to be treated like she was special.
Leylin didnât take a single glance more as he entered the garden and directly headed towards the living room behind the garden.
âBerkan!â
A young manâs loud shout came, and many youths around Neelam turned their eyes to Leylin.
Leylin didnât pause as he kept waking.
âBerk- huh What happened to him, he have been missing these days? I heard he came back months ago, but I didnât I see you at all now he seems so different.â Oliver said.
âI donât know but it seems heâs in a hurry, he also seems a bit different. We can ask later, he can also help you with that turtle and itâs unrecognizable characters, miss Neelam.â
âHe can help?â Neelam who was among these youths, was interested after hearing that. Her lake-like eyes crossed over the ten meters and settled upon Leylin who soon disappear walking towards the living room without any hesitation.
Ethan felt weird and was stunned. He smiled and explained embarrassingly, âBerkan is bad tempered, wordless and not into Martial Arts at all. All these years he has been running around all over the place. Even I donât know what he was doing. Donât worry, I will get him to read it for you.â
There was suspicion in Neelamâs eyes. She gazed at Leylinâs disappearing back and asked, âHe is not interested in Martial Arts? Then how come I canât see through his cultivation.â
âWha⊠what?â
Oliver was shocked as he hurried to ask, âMiss Neelam, are you serious? I have never seen him train Martial Arts for one second in the last seventeen years! Cultivation?â
Neelamâs pretty face showed some surprise too. She asked earnestly after some thought, âThat old man taught me his [Magical Eyes], through which I can tell anyoneâs cultivation. But I canât see through his, it canât be heâs definitely a warrior so either he has a way to stop my probing or just have a higher realm than mine.â
âŠ
âGrandfather, You have called me?â
Leylin walked into the living room, bowed to Eren, Paul, and Ian the three Nirvana realm warriors one by one, and asked Eren.
Heb nodded, stepped up, grabbed his arm and dragged him to the front of Ian, âBrother Ian, look at him carefully, and check how on earth he has his Martial Spirit. Your Family has collected so many classic books on Martial Spirits, you must know more about it than me. I canât figure it out. I believe you can.â
Ian was around sixty years old with white hair along the two sides of his forehead. He didnât look arrogant or proud at all, but was extremely learned and refined.
He didnât look like a family head from a big family, but rather a teacher at the school.
Eren and Ian had been close friends for many years, and the Lenoir Family and the Ashdown Family were solid allies. Therefore, Leylinâs latest news might be still a secret to most Lenoir Family members, but it wouldnât be a secret to Ian.
Ian frowned slightly as he stretched out one of his skinny dry hands and put it on Leylinâs wrist, âPetrify your body first.â
Leylin nodded and did as Ian asked.
Suddenly, thousands of wisps of energy seemed to come out from his wrist like silk.
The wisps felt alive as it nimbly floated to every corner of Leylinâs body, but didnât cause him any pain, despite some itchiness.
âBeep! Foreign Profound Qi detected, immediate camouflage protocol activated. Mysterious energy, devour energy and Profound Qi utilized to create dantian defensive field!â
The wisps passed through his veins, probed his bones, entered his entrails, and moved over every corner of his body, and finally it went back and disappeared at his wrist.
Ian released his hand and frowned deeply. After a long silence, he said, âNothing strange.â
Eren was so joyful that he said in haste, âYou mean, this boy has a normal Martial Spirit? And it will also improve in the future?â
âShould be.â Ian was in deep thought while his face showed a weird expression, âBrother, is there another Martial Spirit in his body?â
Leylin looked at the two old people his eyes flashing in an azure hue, he already knew that Eren would definitely perform some form of check on him and similar to the canon he used Ian to check his body. And since Leylin has already thought of showcasing his strength at First Sky of Human Realm and hide the various secret inside him, he started to look for ways to protect his vital information. Him being at the verge of breaking through to Disaster Realm is too big of an accomplishment to not be under suspicion.
Hence, Leylin used the different powers inside him namely the three, mysterious force or devour Qi extracted from the bodies of his victim and more correctly, the negative force they conjure with them. Second is the refined form of sentient force extracted from the mysterious energy through the devour system which is the innate talent of this body. And third is obviously the Profound Qi.
Leylin is also working to incorporate the bloodline powers and elemental powers but itâs still under observation to be utilized in practice. Through these three he optimized the Gravitational Field martial skill and converting the physical attack into a spiritual defence force.
Obviously the force field created cannot resist a full frontal attack of a Nirvana Realm Warrior who have already formed his spiritual altar and gained a degree of mastery over sea of consciousness. but Ian wonât attack him with such ill intentions, he isnât an expert in matters of soul either. He would just to probing him and with that in mind, Leylin arrangements are more than enough to fool him.
To be honest a very few are capable of such precise work to not injure someone soul crippling them all the while breaking through their defence barrier at the caliber created by Leylin and even if someone would harbor some shadow of a doubt, they wonât dare act before cause, Eren wonât let Leylin be harmed right before him.
Leylinâs knowledge over the soul and spirit isnât something the likes of mere mortals can fathom and although he canât utilize the means to showcase his real ability in such areas, the resources available to him currently also makes him very formidable.
âHow do you know?â
Eren was too happy to contain himself, and he couldnât help but laugh, âBrother Ian! You are really something! Yes, there is another Martial Spirit in his body which can provide self-recovery! Haha! I intended to tell you later, but you detected it so soon!â
A light flashed Ianâs eyes as his mouth trembled. After a long while, he nodded heavily and greeted happily, âCongratulations Brother!â
Eren was delighted as he laughed, âYour little girl is so talented that she has already reached the Second Sky of the Human level. Even that old Ben insisted on teaching her. I bet her accomplishments will be much greater than that boy in the Crystal Family.â
Ian shook his head with a bitter smile, and sighed with fondness, âThat girl is really talented, but she is too lazy! She wonât train until I force her to. Her cultivation would be much higher if she was as diligent as Kyle.â
Ian looked a little proud as he mentioned Neelamâs talent.
âYour girl advances really fast. But Berkan advanced to the First Sky of the Human Level in a very short time too! He never trained in the past seventeen years. To mention this speed, I have never seen anyone who advances faster than him.â Eren replied with a smile, raising his head.
Another light crossed Ianâs eyes. He looked at Eren Lenoir, and nodded with a smile, âTwin Martial Spirits are really amazing. The Lenoir Family will definitely win the Martial Competition this time.â
âSure!â
Eren wasnât modest at all, as he said loudly, âTo be honest, Berkan is too naughty and waste his time in useless stuffs but due to his results I could only agree reluctantly to bear otherwise I kept this guy in the Gravity Room for so long so that he could teach a lesson to the Dunn Family.â
Then the two old men started to talk about other trivial things, seeming to forget that Leylin was still beside them.
âI shall be taking my leave now!â After a moment, Leylin suggested and already started to move his feet.
âWell, go! Hurry up!â Eren urged.
âOh, by the way, you are an expert on ancient characters right?â Ian remembered something and added, âLittle Neelam got a piece of turtle shell which has some ancient characters on it. She wants to know what it says, please help her read it when you pass by her.â
âI would see what I can do, elder Ian.â
