The bracelet Xue Qinghe gave to Pei Qing was a storage soul tool.
The golden bracelet was inlaid with three golden gems, each providing ten cubic meters of space.
As a wisp of soul power entered, a hazy space appeared directly in Pei Qing's consciousness.
In this era, the thirty-cubic-meter storage soul tool in Pei Qing's hand could be considered a top-tier item.
Although thirty cubic meters wasn't particularly large, it was more than enough for him.
After all, he didn't carry many things with him; he didn't need hidden weapons or poisons.
The Golden Crow martial spirit, subtly and imperceptibly, made its possessor look down on everything else, seeing themselves as supreme, and disdaining underhanded tactics.
"No need to be polite, as long as you like it."
"You just obtained a soul ring, so you can familiarize yourself with it a few more times."
"I'll have someone call you when it's time for dinner."
Watching Xue Qinghe give his instructions and depart, a hint of gratitude appeared on Pei Qing's face.
It had to be said that this Crown Prince was truly good to him, not only helping him hunt for a soul ring but also giving him a precious storage soul tool.
One must remember that he and Xue Qinghe, played by Qian Renxue, had only known each other for two days.
Even if the other party's actions were mostly due to his Golden Crow martial spirit, a gentleman judges by actions, not intentions. Regardless, he had received a favor.
Since he had received a favor, he should repay it.
Pei Qing believed he couldn't be the kind of person who would eat with a full bowl and then curse the provider.
Following Xue Qinghe's arrangement, Pei Qing once again activated his martial spirit. Black-gold wings appeared behind him, gently flapping, directly carrying Pei Qing into the sky.
The brilliant soul rings behind him flickered slightly, his aura rising in layers, his black hair fluttering. His originally delicate face now appeared more majestic and handsome, with True Solar Flames constantly flowing over his body.
His golden eyes flickered slightly, and an overbearing aura swept over him. A large amount of True Solar Flames continuously condensed before him, forming a giant palm that directly descended towards a nearby small river.
Hissing mist continuously rose into the air. Even though Pei Qing was only six years old at this time, he still appeared majestic and extraordinary under the illumination of the True Solar Flames.
"Good!"
Xue Qinghe stood by the river, hands clasped behind his back, his eyes lighting up as he watched the constantly evaporating river water.
He knew very well how terrifying the temperature of Pei Qing's True Solar Flames was, but seeing it now, he still instinctively praised it.
To test himself, Pei Qing continuously condensed the True Solar Flames into a palm and struck seven or eight times before feeling his soul power was insufficient, dispelling his martial spirit, and landing back on the ground.
"True Solar Flames are indeed too soul power intensive. At level thirteen, I can only use them seven or eight times. It seems I still need to work harder!"
Xue Qinghe, standing nearby, twitched his mouth when he heard this, suddenly wanting to lecture this ignorant kid.
"Upon our return, I will arrange for your martial spirit studies. Little Qing, are you planning to go to the Heaven Dou Academy now, or wait until later to study?"
Xue Qinghe still didn't scold Pei Qing; he kept reassuring himself that he possessed a divine martial spirit and innate soul power of level twenty (Copium), and it took him many attempts to control himself from lecturing this subtly boastful kid, Pei Qing.
"What does Brother Xue think?"
Pei Qing didn't particularly care. If he entered Heaven Dou Academy early, he could get to know some of the characters from the original story sooner, and perhaps even win some over.
For example, Ye Lingling with her Nine Hearts Begonia, and other geniuses.
If he stayed in the Crown Prince's mansion, he could also learn what he needed to learn, and even have more time to cultivate.
"Then stay in the Crown Prince's mansion. Go to Heaven Dou to study after you break through to level thirty."
"Upon our return, I will specifically find someone to teach you about soul beasts. You must study hard; the future of the empire will rely on you to protect it."
Xue Qinghe considered it for a moment. Although Heaven Dou Academy was generally considered the best academy in the Heaven Dou Empire,
the people inside were a mixed bag; if you randomly picked up a brick from the roadside and threw it, it would hit a noble.
The children of those nobles were often unruly, and if Pei Qing were led astray by them, it wouldn't be good.
Xue Qinghe pondered for a while and finally made up his mind.
"I will work hard and definitely not disappoint you, Brother Xue."
Pei Qing nodded slightly, patted his chest, and spoke earnestly and seriously to Xue Qinghe.
"I believe in you!"
Xue Qinghe looked at Pei Qing, with his black hair and golden eyes, appearing serious and earnest, and felt very satisfied.
She had already decided to cultivate Pei Qing well.
That woman had cultivated someone named Hu Liena, and even called them the Golden Generation.
Heh let's see.
Whose genius is the true genius.
"Your Highness, Young Master Pei, dinner is ready!"
The captain of the guards personally walked over and respectfully bowed to Xue Qinghe.
"Alright, Little Qing, let's go eat!"
Pei Qing's gaze fell on the dinner not far away: braised thousand-year bear paw, hundred-year sea fish, hundred-year earth dragon tendons.
The food was incredibly lavish; eating these things daily would definitely increase soul power several times faster than people of similar talent eating ordinary food.
For a soul master's body to grow, the nutrition required is far greater than that of ordinary people.
This made Pei Qing think of Shrek Academy; with that kind of food, Tang San and the others were only protagonists, otherwise, their nutrition probably wouldn't keep up.
After dinner, Pei Qing immediately went into his tent.
He cultivated the Taiyi Breathing Technique, and a continuous stream of soul power was absorbed into his body.
The soul power entering his meridians circulated through one grand cycle after another, ultimately transforming into increased soul power.
Pei Qing's consciousness once again entered his Sea of Consciousness, and he transformed into the sun again.
Within the gently rotating sun, a Golden Crow was being nurtured.
Compared to Pei Qing's ordinary Golden Crow, the Golden Crow nurtured by the sun in Pei Qing's Sea of Consciousness was a true Three-legged Golden Crow.
As it continuously nurtured, Pei Qing could feel his soul power and soul force increasing.
He had a premonition that once his Taiyi Breathing Technique reached completion, he would truly be able to nurture a Three-legged Golden Crow.
Pei Qing didn't know how powerful a true Three-legged Golden Crow would be, but it would certainly far surpass a Six-winged Angel.
After cultivating for an entire night, Pei Qing felt the increase in his soul power and estimated that he should be able to break through to level fourteen in at most a month.
He should be able to break through five to six levels in a year, and breaking through to level twenty should be no problem in just over a year at most.
As someone with true innate full soul power, Pei Qing was more talented than Tang San, who achieved innate full soul power through cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill later on.
