10 Sage Realm
Immediately after breakfast everyone quickly headed straight to their respective rooms.
Shu Ling, who everyone knew that she has purposely stopped cultivating--not because she met a bottleneck but because she didn't want too much fighting and decided to be idle with her progress--became very very excited.
She intended to focus on the path of healing so she thought of asking her husband to purchase another rare healing skill scroll.
****************
Shu Liang felt that all of a sudden her little brother has breached the three-year gap between them. So she went straight to her room and began cultivating passionately--not wanting to be left behind.
She plans to utilize the strength of her needles so she asked her father to purchase an offensive skill that will compliment and enhance the flying needles' attacks.
****************
Shu Wei thought of giving back something to his son so he intended to gift him a good bow once he goes to Jiang City.
He regularly goes to the city to sell the cores they hunted since merchants rarely pass by the plateau.
There are merchant stores in the villages nearby but their items for trade are very limited.
And this time they need to buy a variety of skills scrolls. And most of the scrolls they need are rare ones. So this time, Shu Wei must see Jiang City.
****************
Shu Wu's choice was obvious. He asked his father to purchase 'Earthquake Kick.'
No doubt, in the next hunt, the father and son duo would look like fighting twins.
But for his wife Qinlun, he told his father to buy a rare skill scroll, a 'Intermediate Alchemy' skill.
It was also an obvious choice because she needs to concoct higher pills for the family as the family gets bigger and stronger.
Although Qinlun is only at the initial sky stage expert realm--and using the supreme pill may not be enough to jump a stage--buying the skill this early is also a smart decision. Rare skills are hard to come by so she might as well prepare the skill beforehand.
****************
Qai has already made a choice.
He has thought of another reason for beast taming. Of course, definitely forging a soul contract with the black tiger cub is the primary purpose.
But he theorized that if he tamed several mortal beasts and 'nurtured' them well, they may have a chance to evolve into demonic beasts one day.
'It may be a long shot, but there is never harm in trying,' he thought.
His thoughts were not really impossible, it's just that no one had really ever tried it.
'In that case, I might possess several "domesticated" demonic beasts,' he pondered with a wide grin on his face.
'Then Shu family will be housing not only cultivators but also few demonic beasts,' Qai mused as he continued on daydreaming.
***************
The entire plateau witnessed breakthrough after breakthrouh.. but the most important breakthrough is happening in the main manor.
And if everything goes well, the family will have a Sage in the house.
Such milestone will be a big one for the Shu family.
It didn't take long for Shu Wei to finally broke through Sage realm. After drinking the Spirit Milk, he instantly felt all the impurities burst forth from his skin.
After entering Sage realm, he spent another two days to stabilize his cultivation.
Now the head of the family is finally at the inital earth stage of Sage realm.
With his lifespan extended to 1000 years, he can now be officially called sage.
