Chapter 37: A Worried Old Father

Qin Changqing frowned slightly and scolded, “Foolish! It’s their business if others have magical treasures. Everyone has their own opportunities. How can you have such thoughts? This is just a competition between fellow disciples. If you were outside facing a life-and-death battle, would you also complain that other people's magical treasures are too good?”

These words struck Qin Qiming like a bolt of lightning, leaving him stunned.

That's right, if he encountered a strong enemy outside, would they not use their good magical treasures and fight you fairly?

That was obviously impossible.

Magical treasures were also part of their strength.

His mentality was indeed flawed. Thinking of this, Qin Qiming's face flushed red with shame, and he lowered his head, saying, “Master is right! I was being stubborn!”

Seeing his son's awakening, Qin Changqing nodded with satisfaction and said, “Disciple, magical treasures are ultimately external objects. What is most important for cultivators? It is cultivation and magical combat skills. Clearly, your sword cultivation is not strong enough. Otherwise, with your talent, even if the other party's magical treasure is better, you shouldn't have lost within the same realm!”

“The Way of the Sword is profound and vast, not just using spiritual power to clash head-on. What difference is there between that and ordinary people? You must remember, let him be strong, the breeze caresses the mountain; let him be fierce, the bright moon shines on the great river. You must learn to find the enemy's flaws, respond to all changes with constancy, and overcome force with skill. This is the essence of the Sword Dao…”

Qin Qiming listened attentively, nodding with excitement.

Master was truly amazing. Just a few words were filled with the truth of the Great Dao!

In this short while, Qin Qiming already felt that his understanding of the Sword Dao had advanced a small step.

Qin Changqing felt sorry for his son's injured shoulder and took out a bottle of healing elixir, handing it over, saying, “This kind of sect competition is not very meaningful. Everyone is a fellow disciple, and no one will strike a fatal blow. Also, showing off too much is not beneficial. On the contrary, you may be targeted and schemed against. The cultivation world is a place where the weak are prey to the strong, and there are dangers everywhere. It is better to cultivate well and improve yourself. When your cultivation increases, there will be fewer things that you fear!”

Qin Qiming knew that his master was concerned about him and was filled with gratitude: “Master is right, Disciple will remember!”

Qin Changqing looked at the slightly damaged magical sword in his son's hand, pondered for a moment, and took out a crescent-shaped purple flying sword from his storage bag. This was given to him by a Golden Core stage fairy.

“Take this flying sword. Remember, do not compete fiercely with others.”

Qin Qiming took the flying sword, somewhat surprised.

This flying sword was too beautiful, like a crescent moon, with purple starlight shining on it.

“Master, this flying sword seems to be for female cultivators. Is it appropriate for Disciple to use it…”

Qin Qiming was a little embarrassed. If he used such a beautiful flying sword, he would be ridiculed.

Qin Changqing felt a little helpless in his heart.

It's not that your father won't give you a normal magical weapon, but the magical weapons and treasures in his hands were all given by fairies. He hadn't taken out even more beautiful ones. This flying sword was already considered good.

Of course, he would naturally not say this, but instead said sternly, “What did I just tell you? Magical treasures are just external objects. Don't care about their appearance. The strength of a magical treasure ultimately depends on the person using it! I see that your swordsmanship is fierce, but lacks flexibility. That is why I am giving you this flying sword, so that you can learn the way of softness from it. The combination of strength and softness is the right path!”

“Moreover, this flying sword is only for you to practice swordsmanship. When you truly cultivate the Sword Dao to great success, everything around you can become a sword!”

Every move of Master had profound meaning!

Everything around him can become a sword?

Qin Qiming couldn't help but feel excited at the thought of this scene.

“It is this disciple who is foolish!” Qin Qiming said with some shame, “Master, please rest assured, Disciple will definitely study and cultivate diligently, and will not let you down!”

“Very good!”

Qin Changqing smiled and patted Qin Qiming's shoulder, saying gently, “Cultivate well, I'm leaving!”

After speaking, white light enveloped his body, and the next moment, he disappeared.

Qin Changqing's departure made Qin Qiming feel somewhat lost. He liked this master very much, but he always came and went in a hurry, and only said a few words each time before leaving.

“I must cultivate well and not let Master down!” Qin Qiming said secretly.

He immediately began to refine the flying sword bestowed by his master. After a moment, a look of shock appeared on his face: “This… it's actually a top-grade magical weapon!”

It was indeed a bit extravagant for him to use a top-grade magical weapon with his current realm. This was just something Master casually gave him, and it was only for him to practice swordsmanship.

Master indeed had profound meaning!

“Master is simply too amazing…” Qin Qiming's admiration for Qin Changqing had reached an extreme level.

With a flash of light, Qin Changqing appeared in his room, sighing slightly.

Son, cherish it well, these magical weapons and treasures were all earned by your father's body!

After thinking about it, he once again called up the dynamic records to check.

[Your daughter Qin Mengxue is exploring an abandoned immortal cultivation cave.]

Qin Changqing thought for a moment and activated the teleportation again.

Among the towering mountains, Qin Mengxue held a jade slip in one hand, checking it, while she was quickly flying while controlling a magical weapon.

This jade slip was something she obtained unintentionally. It recorded an immortal cultivation cave, and this time she took advantage of a sect mission to come and explore its authenticity.

“It's here!”

Qin Mengxue floated in front of a huge waterfall, the silver-white waterfall rushing down, with a huge roar that never stopped.

“It seems that it should be behind this waterfall…”

Qin Mengxue pondered, reaching out and casting a water-repelling talisman to shroud herself, and controlled her magical weapon to rush straight in.

Not far away, Qin Changqing, who had already activated his stealth ability, stomped his feet anxiously: “This girl, why is she so reckless, not even testing it first? What if there is danger inside!”

He quickly flew and followed closely.

Only to see that behind the waterfall was a smooth stone wall, where was any cave.

Qin Mengxue was a little unwilling, and probed with her divine sense, finally discovering a clue.

It turned out that the entrance to this cave was shrouded in an array as a disguise. If she couldn't open the array, she couldn't get in at all.

Watching his daughter trying her best to break the array, Qin Changqing directly flew into the stone wall.

The system's stealth function could completely ignore the array's obstruction.

However, after coming in, Qin Changqing was greatly disappointed.

This was indeed a cave of an immortal cultivation senior, but that senior had long disappeared, and the cave had not left anything behind.

“Wouldn't Mengxue be very disappointed if she saw it?” Qin Changqing thought for a while, and left some elixirs, talismans, and even magical weapons in the cave. These were originally intended for the children, and this was a good opportunity.
