Chapter 1456 - 748: Pinnacle
...
Qing Yi sobbed quietly, tears streaming down her face. Qing Shui knew she couldn’t help remembering that man... the man who was her father’s, the man who abandoned them! Qing Shui looked at her dazed and helpless expression, gritted his teeth, and silently vowed, "I must seek remedy sooner or later, and quickly gain strength to fulfill my mother’s wishes."
Qing Shui had been wandering since he was young, knowing his father might have come from a very powerful clan. In any case, he knew that even if he could enhance his strength, unless he breaks through the Innate Realm, it would still be insurmountable for him to clash with an ancient clan that had existed for more than a thousand years. The next morning, Qing Shui opened his eyes with a pleasant smile on his lips.
Finally, Qing Shui successfully activated his ancient enhancement technique, achieving 48 Qi Circulations, which seemed to make all of his pores tremble.
Since 5 years ago, Qing Shui had been stuck at the bottleneck at the zenith of the third level of the ancient enhancement technique. In the past five years, he hasn’t been complacent at all, continually training and cultivating. Now, he can finally show some results for all his efforts. Since five years ago, when he was at the zenith of the third level Heaven, every activation of ancient enhancement technique allowed him to circulate his Qi at most 36 times. Currently, despite still being at the zenith of the third level, each activation can actually make his Qi circulate over 48 times!
Through repeated experimentation, Qing Shui discovered that as the Qi Circulation increased, his power would also increase. This might be the only consolation for him, as he is still unable to break through the fourth level of the ancient enhancement techniques. Who knows, merely by increasing physical strength, maybe one day he could break through the bottleneck... like a dying man holding onto a straw to save his life, Qing Shui would not ignore the occurrence of this possibility anyway. The possibility is small.
In the past five years, although Qing Shui only managed to increase the circulation count from 36 to 48 cycles, he was required to exert 100 times the effort of others. Just by adding 12 more cycles, his strength increased from being able to lift 10,000 jin directly to 13,000 jin, an approximately 30% increase in strength! If he could train to the extent where each activation could circulate 108 cycles or more, Qing Shui didn’t even dare to imagine how fierce his power would be... This method of Qi Circulation originates from ancient enhancement techniques, it seems to Qing Shui, there is no peak, or more accurately, there might be no upper limit to the maximum cycles one can cultivate.
Alas, he couldn’t break through the fourth level of the ancient enhancement techniques. If he could do so, he wouldn’t need to laboriously increase the cycle count slowly. He would directly receive a huge power boost! After all, the fourth level could be considered as the intermediate layer of the ancient enhancement techniques. Compared to before, it’s a completely different realm.
Qing Shui jumped off the bed and continued to open the door, walking towards the backyard just as the sun rose. Since he could cultivate ancient enhancement techniques, he has been the most diligent and focused cultivator in the entire Qing Clan.
Perhaps it’s because the Yin Yang Symbol in his Consciousness Sea continually nourishes his spirit and soul, but compared to others, Qing Shui possesses excellent perseverance and spiritual power. His current self only requires 2 hours of sleep each day. During Qing Shui’s remaining wakeful hours, almost all the time is spent on cultivation!
Nevertheless, he still couldn’t shake off the label of being useless. Why couldn’t he break through? Even if his current real strength could be regarded as the pinnacle of the "Samurai" realm, such insignificant strength wasn’t even worth a fart. Only by having enough strength could he do as he wished and protect what he wanted to protect.

But why couldn’t he break through! What did he do to deserve this? Qing Shui painfully smiled as he arrived in the spacious yard. Then, his mind began to drift to the various encounters since he began cultivating ancient enhancement techniques.
Lonely Fist!
Qing Shui knows that the "Lonely Fist" technique may be one of the deeper striking techniques. He has executed the "Lonely Fist" technique to an incredible high level, almost to perfection. It’s all thanks to his earlier enlightenment, even if it wasn’t for that one time, even if he had spent ten years training this fist technique, he would still be far from the realm where he is now! Qing Shui is very confident in Lonely Fist, his confidence is well-founded. If not, Qing Yi would definitely not be able to feast her eyes with just one move. Not to mention, he avoided using his internal Qi.
The essence behind the rapid Lonely Fist is unfathomable. The basic concept and essence of the lone rapid fist deeply penetrates into the domain of hidden weapon techniques. Both techniques have the same foundation. Accurately measuring the depth of the level is impossible because hidden weapon techniques usually enable weaker practitioners to achieve victory over stronger opponents.
After his thoughts, Qing Shui knew it was time to leave. He returned to his room, packed the "Continental Medical Record," "10,000 Herbal Medicine Encyclopedias," "herbal combination formulas," and lastly "basic swordsmanship." Then, he decided to write a letter and placed it on the table. The content of the letter reassures Qing Yi that he will return before the end of the year, urging her to bid farewell to the other elders on his behalf.
