Profound Star Kingdom, Wuling City, and the Ruan family.

Ruan Yuli was sitting in a pool. Her forehead was covered with sweat, and the expression on her face was extremely painful. However, she still gritted her teeth and persisted.

"Yuli, if you want to practice the Eternal Golden Body Skill, you must go through terrible pain. You must hold on before you can succeed."

"Hold on to your heart and empty your mind. You can imagine that you are standing on a vast and boundless prairie, enjoying the blue sky and white clouds, and the breeze is blowing on your face."

Qin Ming's voice was soft, like a spring breeze, blowing into Ruan Yuli's eardrums, making her body tremble slightly.

When the ups and downs of Ruan Yuli's body gradually subsided, Qin Ming took out nine silver needles and stabbed them into the nine major acupoints in Ruan Yuli's body.

"Ah!" Seeing this scene, Meng'er, the maid next to her, almost cried out in surprise and covered her mouth with her small hands.

"The seal is the top of a hundred rings. The drum pleases the thirty-six parts of the body and draw the energy of the body. The left and right are the jade pillows."

"Lead the power of the Spirit Pool into the body, flow through the meridians, and forge the golden body." Qin Ming continued to give pointers.

The essence of the spiritual liquid in the pool was constantly absorbed into Ruan Yuqing's body. It circulated in a mysterious way.

Slowly, a faint golden glow began to emanate from Ruan Yuli's body.

The Eternal Golden Body Skill had reached a critical moment and was about to be mastered successfully.

"Next, you'll have to depend on yourself," Qin Ming thought to himself. There was a little seriousness on his handsome face.

Just then, a golden light burst out from Ruan Yuli's body, and a terrible force spread out.

There was a crackling sound coming from her body, like the sound of firecrackers.

She absorbed all of the essence in the Spiritual Pool in an instant, transforming her physical body.

"I've finally mastered the ancient Golden Body Manifestation!" Ruan Yuli opened her beautiful eyes, which were as bright as stars.

At this moment, Ruan Yuli's body was still emitting a faint golden glow. He looked like a god from the Ninth Heaven.

A brilliant smile appeared on Qin Ming's face as he expressed his heartfelt joy.

"Thank you for your guidance, Brother Qin," Ruan Yuli said flatly.

Her face suddenly became a little dignified, with a kind of indifference that kept people thousands of miles away.

"Why are you being so polite with me?" Qin Ming casually waved his hand and did not notice her change.

"Now that I've mastered the Eternal Golden Body Manifestation, I'll be even more confident in taking the Flowing Wind Sect disciples' test tomorrow," Ruan Yuli said with a smile.

"With your talent, you would have been able to enter the Flowing Wind Sect to begin with. The point is to take the exam with a better result. Only then would you be able to receive more training!" Qin Ming said.

Flowing Wind Sect, one of the seven great sects of the Profound Star Kingdom!

The requirements were terrifyingly high!

Tomorrow was the day that the Flowing Wind Sect would open its main gate and recruit disciples in Wuling City.

"Yuli, Qin Ming." A middle-aged man in a brocade robe came in from outside the courtyard, looking very kind.

"Father!" Ruan Yuli said.

"Uncle." Qin Ming immediately called out.

This middle-aged man was none other than Ruan Yuli's father. He was also the Master of the Ruan family.

"Qin Ming, you've been teaching Yuli during this period of time. Thank you for your hard work." Patriarch Ruan said with a smile.

"Don't worry. This is what I should do!" Qin Ming shook his head and said, "It's getting late. I'll go back first."

"Alright." Patriarch Ruan and Ruan Yuli watched as Qin Ming left.

When Qin Ming had disappeared from their line of sight, Patriarch Ruan's originally gentle gaze swiftly disappeared.

"Yuli, how is it going?" The Master of the Ruan Clan hurriedly asked, his voice full of excitement and urgency.

"I've already begun to master the ancient Golden Body Skill!" Ruan Yuli said.

"That's great." Patriarch Ruan clenched his hands tightly, a look of ecstasy on his face.

"During this month, you spent every day with this guy in order to let him teach you the Eternal Golden Body Skill. Now, you've finally gotten your reward!"

The ancient Golden Body Skill and the Top-grade Earth Stage Cultivation Method were enough to destroy the whole world!

This was something that Qin Ming's father, Qin Ruhai, had created. Back then, he had relied on his abilities to dominate the world.

"I'll copy down the cultivation process later and give it to my father and big brother," Ruan Yuli said with a smile.

"Since I've obtained the Eternal Golden Body Manifestation from Qin Ming, then there's no need to be so polite to this kid." A hint of coldness flashed across Patriarch Ruan's eyes.

"Father, what are you going to do?"

"Lock this brat up!"

"You're not going to kill me?" She frowned.

"Maybe it's useful to keep it. Do you want to kill him?"

"That's right!" Ruan Yuli nodded indifferently, with a ruthless look in her eyes. "It's a disaster to keep this person alive. It's better to kill him."

"Yuli is right. Those who achieve great things don't care about trifles. Let's find an opportunity to kill this kid." The Patriarch of the Ruan Clan nodded, a vicious expression flashing across his face.

Qin Ming returned to his own residence with his maid, Meng'er.

Meng'er made a cup of tea for Qin Ming and smiled happily. "Miss Yuli has mastered the Eternal Golden Body Manifestation. She will soon be able to marry Young Master."

"That's right. Once I get married, I'm going to get married and start my career." Qin Ming sighed. "I hope that my children won't be like me, a cripple who can't cultivate."

He slowly tasted the tea. As the candlelight flickered, his thoughts drifted away, and he recalled the past.

His father, Qin Ruhai, was the number one expert in the Tianyuan Region. He was renowned throughout the entire Profound Star Kingdom.

With such a powerful father, Qin Ming's life had been smooth-sailing in the early days. He was like a god's favored son, which made people envious.

However, something unexpected happened. When Qin Ming was eight years old, he accidentally fell down, and his head rubbed against a broken stone tablet, blood flowing out.

In the end, that monument turned into a streak of gray light, merging into Qin Ming's heart, disappearing without a trace.

From then on, Qin Ming could no longer cultivate. Any energy that entered his body would disappear without a trace.

His father, Qin Ruhai, had been searching for all sorts of miraculous pills and medicines. Even a famous doctor couldn't cure Qin Ming's strange illness.

Qin Ming had been stuck at the third level of the External Refinement Realm, unable to advance an inch further.

Of course, with a powerful father like Qin Ruhai around, even if he couldn't cultivate, it was enough to ensure that Qin Ming would never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

But no one had expected that their good days would suddenly drop to the bottom.

Half a year ago, when his father, Qin Ruhai, heard of the birth of divine fruits in the Hengshe Mountain Range, he happily went to look for divine fruits to treat his son's illness.

Unexpectedly, it was just a trap that was surrounded and attacked by several great experts. Qin Ruhai died in the depths of the mountain range.

The reason why the Qin family was able to flourish endlessly was all because of Qin Ruhai's reputation. Now that the pillar was broken, the Qin family instantly lost its support and collapsed.

Several forces joined forces to besiege the Qin family and destroy it overnight.

With the help of the guards, Qin Ming struggled out of the tight encirclement and fled to the Ruan family in Wuling City to seek shelter.

The Master of the Ruan family in Wuling City was Qin Ming's mother's cousin. The two families were more or less relatives.

In the past, the Qin family would often lend a helping hand to help the Ruan family. They would give them cultivation resources and solve various problems.

He wanted the Ruan family to rise from a small family to one of the major families in Wuling City.

The Ruan family warmly welcomed Qin Ming's arrival.

Patriarch of the Ruan Clan was extremely enthusiastic. He not only regarded Qin Ming as his son, but also intended to marry his own daughter to him.

Ruan Yuli, the eldest daughter of the Ruan family, was one of the four beauties of Wuling City.

When Qin Ming saw the peerlessly beautiful genius girl, he was shocked.

Ruan Yuli also had a good impression of Qin Ming.

After a month of getting along with each other, they quickly fell into love.

Patriarch of the Ruan Clan intended to marry his daughter to Qin Ming. However, he made a condition. He wanted the Qin Clan's Eternal Golden Body Manifestation Skill as a betrothal gift.

Qin Ming thought it over and over again and agreed to this request.

However, due to the Qin family's ancestral teachings, only Ruan Yuli was allowed to cultivate on his own.

After all, after getting married, Ruan Yuli could be considered one of her family members. It was not against the Qin family's Ancestral Behest.

Today, Ruan Yuli had finally mastered the Eternal Golden Body Manifestation. The next step was to get married.

"Since I'm unable to cultivate in this life, then I'll nurture my descendants and let my children cultivate the Eternal Golden Body Manifestation technique. I must avenge my father and family!" Qin Ming clenched his fists, and a trace of hatred appeared in his eyes.
