He Quan Ming returned to see his son. However, he only stayed in the manor for one night and immediately returned to the county the next day.
However, with his father's encouragement, He Yiming's body was full of motivation. He also began to immerse himself in cultivation with his other brothers who had advanced to the sixth level.
In the He Family Manor, there were many servants and odd-job workers. However, He Yiming didn't have a personal servant. This was because he wanted to train the third generation disciples' temperament. Therefore, he couldn't allow them to be fed and clothed. However, at the very least, they didn't have to worry about basic necessities. They also didn't have to worry about their daily meals and clothes.
It was only under such circumstances that these masters could wholeheartedly focus on training their inner strength or combat skills.
In the blink of an eye, almost half a year had passed peacefully.
On this day, He Yiming walked out of his small courtyard. Looking at the servants who were diligently cleaning the courtyard, he suddenly felt a little dispirited.
In this half a year, he didn't waste even a single day.
He put all his energy into the training of his inner strength. To his surprise and joy, his inner strength was steadily improving step by step, regardless of whether he was cultivating the Metal Elemental Mixed Yuan Force or the Water Elemental Ripple Technique. What was even more ridiculous was that his Water Element Inner Energy and Metal Element Inner Energy could be interchanged. It was as if these two types of Inner Energy were not of different attributes, but of the same Inner Energy. If one of them improved a little, the other Inner Energy would also improve accordingly.
Although He Yiming was still young and didn't have much experience in cultivation, even an idiot would know that this situation wasn't normal. Of course, he didn't have any intention of showing off. He just silently buried all of this in his heart.
As for the two combat skills …
To be honest, He Yiming didn't touch them other than practicing occasionally.
It wasn't that he remembered his father and third uncle's words, but that he had already reached the peak of the sixth level of these two battle skills during his first cultivation. Even if he continued to cultivate in the future, he wouldn't be able to improve anymore.
Of course, as his inner force cultivation continued to increase, the power of the two combat skills also increased correspondingly. However, this wasn't due to his combat skills, but the improvement of his inner strength. Therefore, He Yiming only practiced a few times to make sure that he didn't become unfamiliar with these two battle skills. He didn't care about them at all.
Just like that, after nearly half a year had passed, he once again encountered a barrier to advancement.
But this time, he didn't tell anyone because he knew that it was rare for someone to be able to reach the peak of Stage Six in just half a year and reach the bottleneck of the next level.
One had to know that the cultivation of internal energy was getting harder and harder. Once the cultivation reached a high level, it was basically an extravagant hope to continue to improve.
His eldest brother, He Yitian, reached Stage Six at the age of fourteen, but it took him a total of five years to reach the peak of Stage Six. In the last year, he was extremely lucky and inexplicably broke through the Stage Six barrier and successfully reached Stage Seven at the age of nineteen.
This was already the fastest speed among the three generations of the He family. Even his eldest uncle, He Quanxin, only succeeded in advancing at the age of twenty.
As for his second and third brothers, although they reached Stage Six earlier than He Yiming, they were still cultivating hard at this level. They were still far from reaching the peak, let alone touching the Stage Six barrier.
He Yiming was different. In these two days of cultivation, he clearly felt that his inner strength cultivation couldn't improve at all. He also had the same feeling as when he encountered the Stage Five barrier.
This feeling was very clear and formed a strong contrast with the hazy feeling he had before. He Yiming could easily distinguish his current level.
After cultivating hard in the courtyard for two days without any progress, He Yiming walked out of the room in distress.
He Yiming left the manor and subconsciously walked towards the large lake in the distance.
After a short while, he arrived at the lakeside and looked at the rippling lake water. His heart was like the surface of the lake, unable to be controlled by himself. A gust of wind blew, and the lake that had just calmed down started to ripple again.
He sighed softly and a self-deprecating smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The last time he was able to smoothly break through the Stage Five barrier, it was because he encountered something strange in the lake that he couldn't understand. Although he almost met the King of Hell that time, it allowed him to achieve an important breakthrough. However, this kind of opportunity only happened once in a lifetime. Although he was looking forward to it, he knew that he wouldn't be lucky a second time.
However, as he sat by the lakeside, he couldn't help but think of the past events of that day.
Although almost half a year had passed, everything seemed to be vivid in his mind and he couldn't forget it at all.
He remembered that after he encountered this incident, he returned home and began cultivating the Ripple Technique that night. It was also that night that he achieved the breakthrough he had been dreaming of and advanced to the Stage Six.
Suddenly, He Yiming's heart moved slightly. A thought seemed to flash through his mind like lightning. He vaguely felt that this thought was very important, as if it could affect the most important thing in his life. Unfortunately, this thought was just a hazy feeling and he couldn't grasp it clearly.
Slowly, he sat by the lakeside and silently looked at the ripples on the surface of the lake. Thousands of thoughts ran through his mind, but he still didn't get anything.
A flat rock flew past him, bounced a few times on the surface of the lake, then sank to the bottom of the lake.
He Yiming raised his head in surprise and saw the happy smile on his little brother's face.
He shook his head slightly and looked at the sky. Only then did he know that their morning training had been completed.
"Yitao, you're still playing here? Hurry up and go back to study. If you skip class, be careful that Third Uncle doesn't skin you alive." He Yiming scolded jokingly. Everyone in the village, except for Third Uncle, doted on this little brother a lot.
He Yitao ran to his side like a lively monkey and said, "Sixth Brother, Father said that I'm off today. But you're finally out. In these few months, you've almost become a cultivation maniac who's even more amazing than Big Brother. "
He Yiming laughed bitterly. He really didn't know how to explain it to his little brother. However, if they were in each other's shoes, he believed that his little brother would be even crazier than him.
"Sixth Brother, how's your cultivation going?" He Yitao asked casually. "Are you confident that you can reach the peak in four years and touch the Stage Six barrier?"
He Yiming pondered for a moment. He knew that if he told him the truth and let him know that he had already touched the Stage Six barrier, this little guy would definitely make a big fuss and let everyone know.
He shook his head slightly and sighed. "Yitao, it's not that easy to cultivate Stage Six inner strength. You'll know when you reach Stage Six."
He Yitao's face was full of expectation. Even his eyes seemed to be twinkling with little stars. However, this kind of gaze only lasted for a very short period of time before it completely disappeared. He said listlessly, "Sixth Brother, I also want to, but Father said that I don't have the talent that you and Big Brother have. I'm also not as hardworking as you, so in terms of cultivation, I'm far behind you. However, he said that my thoughts are sharp and my vision is unique. I have the demeanor of Second Uncle when he was young, so he told me to study more so that I can take over the family business in the future. "
He Yiming opened his mouth. He could hear the unwillingness in his little brother's heart. However, there was nothing he could do about this matter.
The requirements for cultivation were extremely high. If it wasn't suitable, then it wasn't suitable. There was no reason to explain it, and there was no way to change it.
He Yitao was still a child after all. After being silent for a moment, he became lively again. He looked around and moved closer to Yiming's ear. He said softly, "Sixth Brother, let me tell you. Father said that even though Second Uncle looks so mature now, when he was young, he was just like me. He was the most mischievous of the three brothers. He was beaten the most by Grandfather. "
He Yiming's face immediately revealed an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He Yitao definitely wouldn't lie to him. However, he didn't expect Father to have such an image when he was young. It was really unexpected.
However, Yiming didn't plan to seek confirmation from Father because his butt didn't itch.
He Yitao picked up a flat stone from the ground again. He bent down and threw it out, causing a few ripples on the surface of the lake.
"Sixth Brother, are you still cultivating your Ripple Technique?"
He Yiming was suddenly startled. He asked, "What did you say?"
"What kind of inner strength cultivation method are you cultivating now? It should still be the Mixed Yuan Force …" He Yitao looked at Yiming, who looked like a wooden sculpture. He asked in surprise, "Sixth Brother, don't tell me you're cultivating Ripple Technique?"
He Yiming's eyes gradually revealed a trace of excitement. His eyes, which were originally like stagnant water, became even more lively.
He turned around and gave He Yitao a big hug. He said, "Yitao, thank you."
After saying that, he put down his little brother. He didn't care about the surprise and confusion in his eyes. He turned around and strode into the manor.
At the lakeside, only He Yitao was left holding a stone that he hadn't thrown out yet. He stared dumbfoundedly at Sixth Brother who had disappeared into the distance. His heart was filled with questions. Why did Sixth Brother thank me?
Could it be that something went wrong with his cultivation and his brain was damaged …?
