Time passed by, it's been almost a month and the young master still couldn't understand his school lessons and used the learning time to cultivate his internal forces. From the age of three, he had been practicing "Reverse Spirits". The young master was naturally familiar with this path. Together with the pure yin body and reverse veins, the cultivation speed progressed in leaps and bounds. In just a month, he has broken through the first level.

The first level of Reverse Spirit could spread out the internal force to the external body making it so that knife and gun did not enter and made it seem as though a fly was hitting a wall. When the cultivation reached the second level, killing was as easy as picking flowers; at the third level, there was no need to eat anymore and the energy was endless; at fourth level, it becomes overwhelming; the fifth level was difficult to reach. As for the sixth, seventh and eight level, he doesn't know the extent of power at those level because no one had ever reached those heights. However, it's been said in legends that those who reached the eighth level of Reverse Spirits could no longer be called human, living with the heavens and earth and playing with the sun and the moon. Such people should be called gods.

Xiao Shaozu didn't expect to be able to cultivate to the eight level of martial arts because only those who had truly cultivated Reverse Spirits knew that the higher you went in cultivation level, the more difficult were the breakthroughs. He relied on his two lifetime of experience and his reverse vein physique to quickly lay the foundations. When it came to the second, third and fourth levels, not only would they take time to breakthrough but one also needed to face life and death situations. If there were no enemies, there were no "death" experience.

In his past life, he practiced day and night and swallowed countless panacea medicines. He was only able to practice to the third level, after that, the martial arts could not progress further. If it wasn't for his stagnant skills that he couldn't grow even a little bit in several years, Xiao Lin wouldn't've decided to absorb him so quickly.

In this life, he devoted himself to a peaceful and prosperous life and was cared for by his family and friends. The young master's desire to become stronger was far less intense in this life than in his previous one. Thus, his cultivation only focused on the nature of convenience and not on speed.

The young master's days were very comfortable and those who used to bully him often now trembled in fear. Without him, the usual parties disappeared overnight and the Fang family quietly retreated from the provincial military.

After Fang Hao received the threat from Xiao Shaozu, he felt uneasy in his heart. Finally, he couldn't handle the fear and told his family the story. After his family members heard the news, they were shocked. They were uncertain if Gong Lixin would retaliate like he said he would. However, with the report of Song Haoran's character, Fang Hao and Fang family didn't even have to think about it.

The Fang family's influence was not good enough. They barely got a foothold into the sea of power and couldn't afford to gamble. They didn't dare gamble. After a family discussion, they sent Fang Hao away to the countryside. Fang family also took the opportunity to exit the provincial military since it was controlled by Song Haoran.

There was no impenetrable wall in the world. Children who were connected to the military circle soon heard of Fang family's circumstance and they all looked at Gong Lixin with mixed feelings. Sure enough, dogs can bite and a weak cat that looks gentle may also be a tiger.

In front of Gong Lixin, they did a 180 in regards to their attitude. After the dust settled, the incident was never mentioned again. The young master was also used to being served by people in the underground palace. It was normal for these people to behave like that, just as it was natural for him to order them. Everyone saw his extraordinary temperament and treated him more cautiously.
