“Sweetie, come out for dinner.” A woman’s gentle call echoed from behind the door. It was his mother’s voice.
Usually the servants would call for him. Today, it was his mother who came in person, it was evident that his talent succession
from Martial Saint Mountain has actually deeply concerned her.
Tang Luo shook his head, stood up, and eased the gloom in his heart, pulling out a smile. There was no reason to worry his
family over a few words from an outsider.
Tang Luo’s family belongs to the third branch of the Tang Clan. Apart from his father, Tang Sen, his aunt, Tang Man, had married
into the Zhongzhou region and moved away. So now the third branch consisted only of Tang Luo’s family – his father Tang Sen,
his mother Xu Shuhui, his younger brother Tang Xing, his younger sister Tang Nuannuan, and himself.
Although they were not a large family, the atmosphere was still warm. His gentle mother took a light-hearted view of many
issues, placing the utmost importance on her family. Influenced by her, the three siblings got along harmoniously despite their
varying ages.
Their father, Tang Sen, is the Sect Head of the Martial Hall. Today, the Tang Clan was receiving guests from Martial Saint
Mountain, and a large crowd of clansmen have gathered. To maintain order and prevent chaos, the responsibility of overseeing
the clan and city defenses fell on him. Hence, he wasn’t present at the banquet; otherwise, with his protective nature, he would
probably end up arguing with Bu Xiao.
His younger brother, Tang Xing, at only nine years old, greatly admired Tang Luo and held his brother as his idol. Tang Xing
aspired to achieve great things in the martial arts world, wanting to become a genius like his brother.
His younger sister, Tang Nuannuan, was only five years old. She was a chubby, cute little girl, who was the most pampered
member of their family. However, under their mother’s guidance, she hadn’t turned into a spoiled princess but was a girl with a
kind and gentle heart. Most of all, she loved hugging her family and her pets.
Yet today, the dinner table was rather quiet, Tang Luo thought.
During regular meals, even though their father was always busy with his own thoughts, his younger brother would always have
many questions for him. His mother would always join in their conversation, and even though his little sister didn’t understand,
she would still gravitate towards him. Why was tonight’s dinner so quiet?

While his father continued to eat meticulously as usual, his lively brother remained unusually silent, focused on gobbling up his
own food. His adorable sister seemed to have been instructed by someone and was quietly eating in her high chair, occasionally
giving him a pitiful look before returning back to her meal. His mother, however, was excessively enthusiastic, constantly adding
food to his bowl. The food in his bowl was heaped so high it was about to overflow.
“Mother, don’t add anymore. This mountain’s about to collapse.” Tang Luo looked at his bowl, piled with four large pork ribs, and
was rendered speechless.
Xu Shuhui was startled and finally noticed the amount of food piled on Tang Luo’s bowl.
“Oh dear, it’s mommy’s fault. Actually, your father wanted to talk to you.” Xu Shuhui had been too engrossed in giving Tang Sen
signals that she hadn’t noticed the amount of food she had heaped onto their son’s plate. Meanwhile, in response to her signals,
Tang Sen pretended not to notice and continued eating, which infuriated her.
Now that her son had complained, she naturally directed her anger at her husband. Her face held a gentle, apologetic smile, but
under the table, she gently kicked Tang Sen’s foot, creating a muffled thump.
A “thump” sounded, attracting Tang Xing and Tang Nuannuan’s attention, who both lifted their heads in confusion, looking
towards Tang Sen.
The situation instantly turned awkward.
Despite this, Tang Sen, a seasoned Sect Head, remained composed. He put down his bowl and spoke with a calm and deep
voice,
“Luo, your father has something to tell you.”

Oh? Even his usually reticent father wanted to talk to him. This made Tang Luo somewhat curious.
“Your father found an ancient text, it said that the Innate Hollow Body could not absorb Spiritual Energy, so it is impossible to
cultivate to the Mortal Realm.” So, it’s impossible for you to have an Innate Hollow Body. Well, Tang Sen was quite self-satisfied
with his explanation and picked up his chopsticks again.
Yet, this short commentary infuriated Xu Shuhui sitting next to him. Is this idiot only capable of thinking about martial arts? He
was asked to comfort their son, look at what he has said instead!
Xu Shuhui, with a smile on her face, agreed with Tang Sen’s words. While she continued to say “yes, yes, yes,” her foot under
the table launched a barrage of attacks on Tang Sen’s leg.
The person involved was taken aback.
It’s about this? Tang Luo chuckled inwardly. He could feel his family’s concern. They were all worried about him being devastated
by the words of the disciple from Martial Saint Mountain.
True, after all, he was now a thirteen-year-old teenager, and having his future abruptly denied by someone with such a high
status from Martial Saint Mountain – how could a normal person not feel disappointed and depressed?
However, as someone who had actually already lived for almost forty years, he considered Bu Xiao’s words nothing more than
hot air. Yet the sight of his family being so careful and considerate of his feelings and his busy father going through ancient texts
because of this issue genuinely moved him.
Just as he was about to respond, someone else jumped in, more excited than he was.
Tang Xing, who had looked somewhat downcast, suddenly brightened up as if stars had sparkled in his eyes, and eagerly asked,
“Really, Father! That’s fantastic, I knew my brother is a genuine genius.” He reacted as if it was not Tang Luo who had been
denounced by Bu Xiao, but himself.
Tang Luo stretched out his hand to rub his younger brother’s head, speaking lightly, “Yes, yes, yes, eat your food.”
“Mmm-hmm!” In Tang Xing’s eyes, having his head rubbed seemed a great honor, and he dove back into his bowl, eating with
renewed gusto.
Tang Luo was not considered weak by any means; he was still a genius.

The entire meal took on a much livelier atmosphere. Tang Nuannuan, who had been feeling upset, also stretched out her chubby
little hand, asking to be held while eating.
Looking at the harmonious scene before him, Tang Luo’s eyes suddenly welled up. He quickly shook his head, cutting himself
off. He was almost forty years old, and yet he was being moved by these simple gestures! If he cried, he would feel utterly
embarrassed.
“Thank you, Father.” Sincerely thanking Tang Sen, as a mentally mature and solitary person, calling someone in their thirties
‘Father’ felt a bit reluctant. However, the love from Tang Sen and Xu Shuhui throughout his growing-up years had melted the
cold, matured heart he had. Although he was not comfortable using affectionate terms like ‘Daddy’ or ‘Mommy’, the respect in his
voice when he called them ‘Father’ and ‘Mother’ was real.
Tang Sen nodded in satisfaction. If his son didn’t respond, his wife might have kicked his leg under the table. He quickly moved
his leg away from Xu Shuhui’s attack and wrapped his around hers.
In an incidental glance exchanged between the couple, Tang Sen sent a message – the First Head of the Martial Hall was
proposing a truce and begging Xu Shuhui to stop. Look, our son agrees that my comfort is useful, don’t kick anymore.
Xu Shuhui snorted lightly to signal acceptance. How could a defeated general be brave? She pulled her leg back, and feeling
elated, she picked up chubby Nuan Nuan and gave her a kiss.
“Finally, we can eat normally. What we must do first is to conquer this mountain of dishes,” said Tang Luo, looking at his bowl of
food with a serious expression.
After dinner, the five-year-old girl was full of energy. Even after her day time physical training, she would recover all of her energy
by night.

Xu Shuhui, once a well-known heroine when she was young, got lazy with her martial arts practice after getting married. Her
greatest happiness every day now was to tease her children. So after dinner, she took Tang Nuannuan to the Xiling Night
Market.
The remaining three men left, and the large Tang Clan mansion was quiet again.
Upon returning to his room, Tang Luo was raring to go. They say that a family is the best support for a career, and he agreed.
His despondent mindset vanished. With such a supportive family behind him, were these small difficulties really a big deal?
Full of ambition, his spirit was high.
Tang Luo sat cross-legged on the bed and looked inward. His Dantian was void, with thousands of strands of Spiritual Energy
slowly rotating around the Star Core, like a spiral galaxy within his body. It was as beautiful as a Virgin Nebula – a sight to
behold.
Tang Luo gazed at it with a serious expression.
After a long time...a really long time.
...He gained nothing.
You wouldn’t believe it, but he stared blankly at a vortex for half an hour.
“I can’t see anything out of this,” he said.
Tang Luo seemed a little disheartened. His Spiritual Energy looked quite normal. It only decreased after he had a fight.
But then it occurred to him – if his energy decreases every time he fights, how can he stand in the martial arts world?
When that time comes, while others have nicknames like The Mountain Tiger or The Dragon Slayer, what would he be called?
Tang Onetime?
No, no, no, Tang Luo shuddered at the thought. Even if it’s just to avoid being called Tang Onetime, he had to fix this issue.
With his mind settled and tranquil, Tang Luo began to carefully examine his martial arts journey.
First of all, there was definitely no problem with the technique.

All the direct male descendants of Tang family practice the Heavenly Pathway Technique, which is a highly regarded Mysterious
State Technique that can be systematically cultivated to reach the Fierce Realm.
The distinction of whether a technique is good is first determined by its limit. Techniques that only allow practitioners to reach
Mortal Realm are Mortal-Level techniques. Those that can be cultivated to reach the Transcendental State are Yellow Rank. This
is the level of technique that most people practice. Then, there are Mysterious State Techniques that can be cultivated to reach
the Fierce Realm. In ascending order, there are also Earth-Level Techniques and Heaven-Level Techniques, which have traces
that can be found and followed.
Saint-Level Techniques are folklore. They are said to allow practice up to the Saint Realm, but no one has seen them. They’re
similar to a virtuous, wealthy, attractive, merciful and seductive virgin.
Techniques that come without accompanying killing techniques are not deemed good. A Mortal Realm martial artist practicing a
Yellow Rank technique, regardless of whether they practice Fierce Bull Fist or Ruyi Knife, if they encounter an Mortal Realm
martial artist who practices a Mortal Level Technique like the Black Tiger Technique along with its killing technique, Black Tiger
Claw, unless the former is a battle genius, they will be beaten to a pulp.
In summary, a good technique must come with a killing technique, otherwise, it will always lack some essence.
As for the best techniques from martial arts holy lands, not only do they come with killing techniques, but also healing techniques
and movement techniques. Some even come with secret techniques in the unique school’s teaching. These are known as top-
level techniques.
The Heavenly Pathway Technique of the Tang Family is a Mysterious State technique that comes with a killing technique. It’s a
straightforward and robust palm technique called Tongtian Domination Scroll which can smash gems and break jade. This
technique serves as Tang Clan’s foundation. Tang Luo has managed to fight evenly with the young disciples of Martial Saint
Mountain by practicing this palm technique.
The technique is definitely not an issue. Before practicing the Heavenly Pathway Technique, Tang Luo also tried to practice other
Yellow-Level and Mortal-Level Techniques. The fact has proven that there is no essential difference in body tempering at the
Mortal Realm stage no matter which technique you use. The development of martial arts over thousands of years has shown no
secret in the Mortal Realm. Even if you buy a technique from a martial arts school for self-practice, reaching the peak of Mortal
Realm is assured.

The killing technique is even less of a problem. The Tongtian Domination Scroll is not only practiced by him. There are hundreds
of direct clansmen in the Tang Clan who practice this palm technique. They all have no problem, so it wouldn’t be practical for
him to be the only one with issues.
It could only be that there’s a problem with my Dantian. Now only this innate matter remained.
The expression on Tang Luo’s face was that of confusion.
I knew there is no such thing as a pie dropping from the sky. This Star Core, which divides one flow of Spiritual Energy into three,
must be a trap.
Tang Luo collapsed on the bed in despair. He was desperate...
