Sword Devil Also Dual Cultivates?

Chapter 14: Plan to Trap Qin



'Well, being low key is not a bad idea. As she said, I basically don't have any background or someone to support me. Those days I refused to show my talents for cultivation because I feared they might use me.'

'So, why do I want to be high-profile now? Is it because of arrogance and pride? I shouldn't drown myself in pride. Alright, for now, I should simply focus on learning Soaring Dragon Art. As for the rest, I would think about it when the time comes.'

Qin thought to himself and started reading Soaring Dragon Art.

It was a simple movement step that needs him to understand the flow of the wind and use it to propel himself. He needs to strengthen his legs using qi so that he can strike the air. And, he needs to coat his leg with qi as well.

This means it requires a lot of qi and if he doesn't have enough, he will suffer for sure. Qin was seriously considering whether to practice this now or later. After all, he doesn't want to take some serious risk here.

But, suddenly his eyes shrunk.

'Those men will probably guard this place for a long time. The only way to escape is by using movement art. If I learn this movement, I can use the lightning bolts to distract them as soon as I go out. Then, using this art, I can escape far.'

'But, after that, I must do everything to hide from them until I recover my qi. With one piece of Essence Stone, it won't be hard. I have two Essence Stones. Hmm! I think I should train my Qi Sense. Although I don't have the art in my hands, I have some general ideas.'

'As long as I can escape from those guards, I will be able to hunt other guards who are at the lower stage.'

As soon as those thoughts rang on his mind, he shook his head and muttered "I can't do that. If I do something like this then they will definitely send stronger people to fight me. It could get ugly. I must not do anything reckless."

"But, what should I do about the resources? I need Essence Stone to cultivate faster."

If others were to hear him, they would definitely slap him to death. In just a few days, he has gone from none cultivator to the second stage of Qi Gathering Realm. It is a huge improvement in itself.

"I never said that you would need to act low like that. It seems you don't understand the meaning of acting low. There are three essential components for acting. One is your performance, second is your audience and third is your stage."

"If you try to act low in front of the audience that is not willing to watch that performance then your efforts will be wasted. So instead of using fist, try to use your brain. Look at your surroundings and find a perfect way to acquire essence stones."

"Don't forget you can bring people inside this space whether dead or alive!" Suddenly, Claire's voice rang from the room which startled him.

But, this also got him into thinking about his own situation. He must act low but there are ways to get benefits from acting low-key. Suddenly, an idea struck his brain. Without wasting more time, he started learning Soaring Dragon Art.

This martial art was divided into three levels.

Dragon Steps- In this level, a person can condense the qi below his foot. Then he needs to step on air using that qi. He needs to train his qi to make it light as air and also make it buoyancy enough to float on air. To move, the person must keep on walking.

Soaring Bird- In this level, a person can step on-air and also manipulate wind to push him faster. This step requires a certain level of comprehension of the wind elements. Once a person comprehends this level, he can float on air and move with the help of wind. This means he doesn't need to move his foot.

Soaring Dragon- This level is the final level and in this level, one needs to comprehend Wind Intent. Once a person comprehends wind intent, he can condense wind on his foot and shoot wind to move. This step is faster than previous steps because one can travel fifty to a hundred meters in a single step.

But, before even comprehending first, second or third level, he must train his leg with qi. He must kick thousand times after condensing a large amount of qi in his leg.

Qin stood up and closed his eyes. His Qi sense entered his dantian. First, he separated the qi inside his dantian based on the amount. He separated all of his qi into five square shapes and equally. He did that so that he can train without using a large amount of qi or with utilizing a small amount of qi.

Qin draws the first square of qi into his foot and slowly merges it with his veins and cells. Qi nurtures the body. It makes cells stronger but there are two kinds of effects. One is permanent and another is temporary.

The permanent effect generally takes place which he reaches higher realm or if he trains with qi for a long time. It's like turning temporary effect into permanent effect. But for this, a person must train continuously.

For Qin, time was an essence. He can't waste it but if it is getting wasted on something that can improve his strength, it won't matter to him.

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

Without wasting a second, Qin raised his leg and started kicking the tree near him. His goal was to break the tree with two squares of qi.

Outside the space,

"Where did he go? Why can't we find him anywhere?" A tall man in black dress stood in the middle and shouted.

"Second Master, we can't find a trace of him. But, our people did see him appearing at this place. But as soon as we spotted him, he disappeared once again. We don't know how he did that but we have to guard this place ever since." A middle-aged man kneeled on one knee and answered.

"Sir, I suggest we layout a trap for him. He won't come until we disappear so we should disappear after laying out a trap. Once he appears, we can trap him and take him back." Another man kneeled on one knee as well and spoke.

"Oh! That's a good idea." Family Head's Brother nodded his head but suddenly, the previous guard spoke "Sir, I don't think that's a good idea."

His words started Family Head's brother. He looked at the guard and asked "Why do you think this is not feasible?"

"If we lay out the trap, it means we have to leave far away. Once we leave, he might appear but what if he doesn't fall for the trap? He has been laying low for six years. He made us believe that he didn't have the talent for cultivation just to avoid our cultivation technique."

"He also planned a perfect way to steal the heritage. All of this is impossible for a dumb person. If we lay out the trap, what if he finds that? And, if he finds those traps, cross them with ease, he can easily move out of our radar."

"Don't forget, we won't be here that means he has more chances to escape. Our best option would be to strike on his weakness. And, his weakness is his cultivation. Of course, if we keep higher stage cultivators then he may never come out nor we can keep those people here for a long time."

"So, I suggest to let Third Stage cultivators guard this place. As soon as he appears, instead of blocking him, they should send others the signal while keeping him in check."

Hearing his words, the Family Head's Brother frowned. He felt this man was helping Qin instead of trying to capture him. But, he wasn't wrong either. Suddenly, a shadowy figure appeared in front of them.

"He is right. That brat is already aware of our existence. He won't come out if he sees us but if lower stage guards succeed in luring him out, it will be my responsibility to capture him. And, this time I won't make a single mistake."

Family Head's Brother looked at him and his eyes fell on his hand. At this moment, his hand was chopped off. It was done by Qin so he understands the hatred brewing inside this man.

After all, the person in front of him was a Qi Condensation Realm cultivator, only one stage lower than his brother who is Essence Transformation Realm, cultivator.

He thought for a while and nodded his head "Alright, we shall go with this plan. But, I will also stay here. That little thief doesn't have any weakness that we could exploit. So, we must capture him while he is weak at any cost."

The reason why he wanted to stay behind was simple. He feels Qin isn't simple. His cultivation and his possession of Tan Bloodline means he is very talented. That's why he doesn't want this guard to kill Qin because of hatred.
