Chapter 619: A Chat All Night With Wine Ending Part 1
"Father!"
While Pei San was laughing happily and excitedly, Pei Xuelian appeared. She leaped up the attic and approached with a bright smile on her face. "Father, what is making you so happy? Tell me!"
When the King of Beasts Wu Hou heard the question, he answered, "Junior Martial Sister, there is a mysterious man residing on the Wild Wolf Mountain in the region of Chu County, Yangzhou. This mysterious man was constantly encircled by swirls of mist. The locals called him god. He was called a god because he sat under a cassia tree and the cassia tree grew continuously, instantly sprouting new branches, leaves, and flowers; but then, the tree would wither quickly."
When Pei Xuelian heard this, she was astonished.
Wu Hou laughed and said, "The members of the Xing Yi Sect had sealed off that area. We guessed that the mysterious man is Teng Qingshan."
"Yes, it must be Teng Qingshan!" Pei San, who was at the side, laughed and said, "Only Teng Qingshan and I are capable of executing 'the interchange of life and death' within the blink of an eye! I can't believe that Teng Qingshan made a breakthrough even before the 18th of December. He did not disappoint me! He never did!" Of course, saying that it happened within the blink of an eye was just an exaggeration.
"Father, congratulations." Pei Xuelian said with a grin.
Pei San smiled back at her
"By the way, Father, is Teng Qingshan more powerful or is Qin Shiqi more powerful?" Pei Xuelian asked.
"Of course Teng Qingshan is more powerful!"
With a faint smile, Pei San explained, "Qin Shiqi was able to achieve a breakthrough while he was engaging a fight of life or death. However, during that time, his fusion of the Powers of Yin and Yang was not that impressive. As Qin Shiqi had achieved a breakthrough during the fight, he did not have enough time to comprehend and strengthen the newest knowledge he had just acquired. However, Teng Qingshan is different. He had achieved a breakthrough while he was cultivating arduously. Now, he is studying and trying to understand the Daos of Life and Death. He is also still trying to increase the fusion rate of the Dao of Life and the Dao of Death. Soon, he will be very familiar with this power. Soon, the fusion rate of his Dao of Death and Dao of Life will be even greater than that of Qin Shiqi! I knew it! Finally, he has shown himself to be a worthy opponent!"
Pei Xuelian was shocked. "Father, if Teng Qingshan becomes so powerful, are you sure you can manage a fight with him?"
During the previous duel, Qin Shiqi had managed to injure Pei San heavily. As a result, Pei San had to recuperate for several months. However, even so, Pei San had been confident during the duel with Qin Shiqi.
However—
Teng Qingshan would be even more powerful than Qin Shiqi. If it was a fight with Teng Qingshan, would Pei San still be confident?"
"I am not confident. I might be stronger than him now, but there are three months until the 18th of December. These three months might be enough for him to reach the level closest to the Omnipotent Realm and become as powerful as me!"
Pei San shook his head and walked to the balcony. He stood by the railing and looked at the endless horizon. His eyes twinkled brightly as he exclaimed, "An opponent! A worthy opponent! It is even better if I am not confident about this fight. If I am not confident, I won't know if I will be able to survive. If I don't know what will happen, there's a higher chance that my physical and mental state will improve to the maximum level! There is a higher chance that I will reach the Omnipotent Realm!"
As Pei Xuelian stared at the tall figure, who was leaning on the railing and looking at the sky and the earth, she unconsciously bit her lip.
In her heart...
For as long as she could remember, her father Pei San had always been the majestic mountain that protected her from all danger. There was nothing her father could not do. She has always revered and admired her father. Even when her father decided to eliminate the Mani Temple, the number one sect in the Land of the Nine Prefectures, she was confident that her father could do it! And just as she had expected, her father did destroy the Mani Temple.
Then, her father challenged the other three most powerful cultivators in the Land of the Nine Prefectures. In Pei Xuelian's opinion, her father would definitely win the other three powerful cultivators. In addition, her father had always been extremely confident. In the end, like what she had predicted, her father won. Huang Tianqin and Qin Shiqi both lost and died.
But… But…
Her father just said that he had no confidence! In the past, his father had always been extremely confident. His had faced every danger in a casual manner. And now, her father, who had always been very confident, actually said that he had no confidence that he could win Teng Qingshan.
Pei Xuelian recalled Teng Qingshan's appearance. He was the guy who took her beloved disciple away. The legendary figure... Although Pei Xuelian never liked Teng Qingshan, she had to admit that Teng Qingshan was the most magnificent person in his generation of people.
However!!!
Pei Xuelian regarded her father as the most powerful guy in the Land of the Nine Prefectures!
"Father will be fine. He will definitely win! Definitely!" Pei Xuelian said repeatedly in her mind.
"Father!" Pei Xuelian suddenly shouted.
Pei San, who was leaning on the railing, turned and smiled at his daughter.
Pei Xuelian took a deep breath. She stared at her father and said in a serious manner, "Father, you have to win the fight on the 18th of December. You have to win!!!"
When Pei San saw the glistening teardrops in his daughter's eyes, he felt his heart thump in his chest.
"Xuelian, come here." Pei San said gently.

Pei San stretched his hands out and held his daughter in his arms. Pei Xuelian held her father closely and hid her face in his chest. She couldn't stop her tears from flowing. Pei San held his daughter and comforted softly, "Xuelian, I promise you I will win the duel on the 18th of December!"
"Mhm." Pei Xuelian nodded gently as she hugged her father tightly.
The father and daughter remained in that position for a long time, becoming like a statue…

In the Gui Yuan Sect in Yongan County, Yangzhou:
Zhuge Yuanhong looked up at the soft, silky clouds floating in the sky.
"He sat under the cassia tree and controlled the growth and decline with the snap of his fingers… Qingshan achieved a breakthrough." Zhuge Yuanhong muttered to himself, "It seems like he does not want to give up the fight on the 18th of December… Since he achieved a breakthrough, there is a high chance that he will fight against Pei San on the 18th of December! No one knows if he can survive a fight with Pei San…"
When the Gui Yuan Sect had been trying to destroy the Shooting Sun God Mountain, Zhuge Yuanhong took advantage of Teng Qingshan even when there was no evidence against Teng Qingshan.
Zhuge Yuanhong did it for the sake of the Gui Yuan Sect. However, he still felt sorry towards Teng Qingshan. After all, he had watched Teng Qingshan grow… Back then, when Teng Qingshan was still part of the sect, Zhuge Yuanhong invested even more in Teng Qingshan. He wanted to prepare Teng Qingshan for the position of Sovereign. He even wanted to marry off his daughter Zhuge Qing to Teng Qingshan.
A son-in-law is almost like a son.
Zhuge Yuanhong had always considered Teng Qingshan as his son, but life had been unpredictable.
"No one knows if he will survive…" Zhuge Yuanhong felt very worried.
In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, Pei San had always been the powerful and mysterious existence and Zhuge Yuanhong had always been afraid of Pei San. When Pei San killed Huang Tianqin and Qin Shiqi, Zhuge Yuanhong was amazed at how powerful Pei San was… And now, Teng Qingshan would soon fight against Pei San.
"I should visit Qingshan when his cultivation under the cassia tree ends." Zhuge Yuanhong thought to himself.

On the Wild Wolf Mountain in the region of Chu County, Yangzhou:
The muscular disciples of the Xing Yi Sect arranged themselves in organized rows and stood there like statues. They glared at the people who had traveled a long way here to satisfy their curiosity. Those who had heard about the miracle and found out about the arrival of the Undying Phoenix and the members of the Xing Yi Sect started discussing among themselves. They did not dare to offend or provoke the members of the Xing Yi Sect.
The many disciples of the Xing Yi Sect formed a circle, sealing off the area where Teng Qingshan was currently cultivating.
The strong fragrance of the cassia flowers filled the air. Li Jun, Honglin, Hongwu, Lei Xiaoru, Teng Yongfan, Yuan Lan, and the Undying Phoenix waited patiently on the sidelines.
"Father, when will grandpa wake up?" Asked a little girl, who stood beside Hongwu and wore a red jacket.
"Xiuxiu, do you want to go home?" Hongwu said with a smile.
"No." The little girl hastily shook her head.
At this moment, the ground was covered with snow. Li Jun and the others have been waiting for a month. However, Teng Qingshan was still cultivating. Thus, Li Jun and the others could only wait silently. The cassia tree continued its many cycles of growth and decline. Every time the tree sprouted new branches, new leaves, and new flowers, they could smell the strong fragrance of the cassia flowers.
And now, the fragrance of the cassia flowers had spread one or two Li away. It is indeed a miracle to smell the fragrance of flowers during this cold winter.
"Live…"
"Die…"
The Power of Qingshan's World had turned mostly gray, with only a small portion of the black and white left. Suddenly, the swirling mist moved rapidly towards Teng Qingshan. Within a second, all the grey, black, and white mist entered Teng Qingshan's body. At this moment, the cassia tree behind Teng Qingshan stopped growing.
"Qingshan!"
"Father!"
"Teacher!"
Li Jun and the others immediately stood up. After waiting for over a month, they could finally see Teng Qingshan clearly. Currently, Teng Qingshan's clothes looked worn out and dirty. He also grew out his facial hair. At a glance, Teng Qingshan looked just like a beggar.
The only unique feature was Teng Qingshan's skin. His translucent and sparkling skin looked as beautiful as jade.
"Life and Death complement each other."
"Without life, how can there be death?"
"Without death, how can there be life?"
Teng Qingshan opened his eyes. A strange, swirling light that seemed to be enchanted shone from his eyes. Li Jun, Hongwu, and the others, who had been very excited to see Teng Qingshan, were all affected by Teng Qingshan's eyes and became slightly absent-minded. Realizing what was happening, Teng Qingshan regained his senses and his eyes became normal.
"Little Jun." Teng Qingshan stood up.
"Qingshan." Li Jun was very excited. She ran over and hugged Teng Qingshan tightly. Even before Li Jun hugged Teng Qingshan, Teng Qingshan had already shaken off all the dust from his clothes. The dust became this ball of dirt and tumbled to the ground.
"Grandpa!" A silvery voice sounded.
Teng Qingshan turned over and saw a little girl, dressed in a red jacket, staring at him with big, black eyes. The little girl looked at Teng Qingshan and commented, "Your eyes are so beautiful!"
Teng Qingshan was stunned.
His eldest disciple, Teng Shou, and the others immediately burst out in laughter.
"My eyes are beautiful?" Teng Qingshan has never heard such a compliment.
"You must be Xiuxiu. It's been two years. I can't believe you grew so much." Teng Qingshan said with a smile. He walked over and held the little girl in his arms. Xiuxiu leaned against Teng Qingshan's arm and stretched her hands out, pulling Teng Qingshan's beard. She then said happily, "Grandpa, your beard is so long… Even father has never grown such a long beard."
The people around them laughed again.
"Father, Mother…" Teng Qingshan looked over at his parents and asked, "What's the date?"
"Today is the 16th of October. We have two months left." Teng Yongfan said.
"Two months…"
Teng Qingshan would be fighting Pei San of the Heavenly God Palace in two months.
However, because of what Teng Qingshan had learned through this cultivation, he was no longer afraid of Pei San.
Teng Qingshan nodded. He looked around and said with a smile, "Let's go home!"
...
When Teng Qingshan and his family left the Wild Wolf Mountain, the members of the Xing Yi Sect who had been guarding the area naturally left as well. When they left, the people, who had been very curious, immediately rushed to the cassia tree. However, they were disappointed. The god had disappeared and the cassia tree had stopped growing and withering within seconds.
...
Teng Qingshan and the others left the Chu County and returned to the Xing Yi Sect on the Great Yan Mountain.
In the East Flower Garden:
During the evening, Teng Qingshan and Li Jun strolled quietly in the garden.
"Qingshan, do you really have to fight Pei San on the 18th of December?" Li Jun couldn't help but ask.
"Yes." Teng Qingshan nodded.
"How confident are you?" Li Jun hastily asked.
Teng Qingshan held his wife's hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, LIttle Jun. Only the Omnipotent Experts can kill me now!"
When Teng Qingshan started cultivating under the cassia tree, he was as powerful as Qin Shiqi. After over a month of learning and consolidation, Teng Qingshan became almost as powerful as the Omnipotent Experts!
"I think I can even feel the power of the Omnipotent Expert…"
"The greatness of this power and the freedom from the restraints of this world." As Teng Qingshan spoke, a gleam of hope dazzled in his eyes.
Li Jun couldn't understand what Teng Qingshan was trying to say…
"However…" Teng Qingshan shook his head and said, "I can see it, but i can't touch it. I can feel the power of the Omnipotent Realm, but I can't reach the Omnipotent Realm. This is the final barrier! Pei San must be experiencing the same thing… The Northeastern King Hong Tian and many of the powerful Insightful Emptiness Realm Experts mentioned in history must have gotten stuck at this stage and they never stepped into the Omnipotent Realm."
Li Jun said anxiously, "Qingshan, there are only two months left. Are you sure you can achieve a breakthrough within these two months?"
"Haha…"
"If I still can't understand the Dao of the Omnipotent Realm, I will never be able to achieve a breakthrough. It will not happen even if I cultivated for two hundred years, not to mention two months. It really depends on my luck." Teng Qingshan laughed and explained, "Tomorrow, I am going to create many sets of fist techniques that will contain the Dao I have just learned. These fist techniques will benefit our sect!"
*******
The origin of the Xing Yi Martial Art was the Three Postures.
Teng Qingshan had reached this cultivation level and had become extremely close to the Omnipotent Realm. He had also understood how life and death complemented each other and restricted each other. When he had comprehended the processes of Life and Death and reached this cultivation level, he finally understood the Three Postures! With the understanding of the Three Postures, the cultivation of the Xing Yi Martial Art became crystal clear to Teng Qingshan.
And so, he could easily create new techniques.
...
Time went by very quickly. Teng Qingshan ate with his family every day and had a lot of fun with them. He would laugh and chat with them. He would also spend time with his parents. When he was in his study room, he would practice his fist art or draw the fist techniques he had developed. As the proverb says, 'one who reviewed the past would know the future.' When Teng Qingshan was developing the techniques that contained the Dao that he had learned, he was basically reviewing what he had learned.
On the 1st of November…
In the study room in the East Flower Garden:
Teng Qingshan drew the move of the fist technique on the paper, adding annotations as well. Suddenly, he looked up and a glint of joy sparkled in his eyes. "Teacher is here?"
