Ju Seo-Cheon said with all his might.

 

‘I know it all’ Even though he knew his master was giving it his all to help Ju Seo-Cheon he couldn’t help but feel bored.

 

Ju Seo-Cheon had already mastered the Plum Blossom Qi Art in his earlier life, and it could also be said that his achievements and understanding in it were even greater than that of his master.

 

He also knew the secret to the Plum Blossom Qi Art, which had yet to be revealed at this point in time. 

 

‘I want to get stronger!’ Having memories of his previous life, of course it was not hard for him to become strong very quickly.

 

But then, of course, the people who show this great growth always stand out. A rumour might start about him being a genius.

 

He needed to control himself, he needed to go at a slow pace. But he also really longed to be a hero.

 

He didn’t intend to start getting attention from the people around him.

 

Being in the limelight not only creates restrictions on the behaviour, but also leads to the person’s future becoming a target of instability.

 

 ‘I have to be careful’

 

 In his previous life, he was somehow able to find peace, but it was never easy to get it.

The forces that would be taking part in the upcoming war were not ordinary at all, they were just too powerful.

 

 These forces also might endanger these talented sprouts, so it was better to stay down as long as he could to build up his strength.  

 

 Therefore, he had to live in the same ordinary way as his previous life, a life in which he couldn’t be distinguished in any way.

 

 ‘Of course, I don’t really mean to do that.’

 

Anyways, it was too early to be talking about his performance and military achievements that he could get in the future. And if he really did live his life just like he lived his previous one, it would be a waste of a second chance.

 Ju Seo-Cheon knew his place well.

 

 He was more special than others, but he knew that it was not because of his talents but because of the knowledge and memories of his previous life.

 

 He had to start getting stronger fast, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to face the factions that would rise in the coming war.

 

 It took him a lifetime to get to the Unrestrained Realm Elder of the Volcano sect, and he had only touched upon the Realm as well.

 

 He didn’t even know what Realm came after the Unrestrained Realm, he had no idea whatsoever.

 

That’s why he had to be faster than anyone else, and do everything he could to get ahead. Only then would he be able to fight while having breathing space. 

 

‘So, by practicing the Plum Blossoms Qi Art, I could pretend to be like the other cultivators, but I could still study other qi techniques.’

                 

The stability acquired by practising plum blossoms qi art was said to be best in martial arts. It could also be said to be better than the martial arts in the Shaolin Temple.

 

No matter how stable it may be, he needed to study another qi art while practicing Plum Blossoms Qi Art.

 

Of course, studying Plum Blossoms Qi Art meant that you were a beginner, so you couldn’t learn other arts.

 

Only in Ju Seo-Cheon’s case was it different because he could reach the peak of Plum Blossoms Qi Art easily.

 

The Volcanic sect also had a technique of its own, called the Violet Mist Sword Art.

The Violet Mist Sword Art had the characteristic of creating a purple stream of air around the user when he/she was about to attack, though only after reaching a certain level of proficiency in it.

 

It was not only for show, but it also packed quite a punch and was very powerful.

But the problem was that this technique was passed down only to the Sect Masters of the Volcano Sect. Even the Elders were prohibited from learning it.

 

Nevertheless, Ju Seo-Cheon knew about the technique because the situation of that time in his previous life was an anomaly. 

In times of war, people die as easily as ants being crushed under feet, and this was also the case with the Old Sect Master of the Volcano Sect.

 

‘I didn’t expect that the old Master would pass away like that.’

 

In Ju Seon-Cheon’s previous life, the old Sect Master of the Volcano sect was killed in war. After he died, his position was given to his disciple, but even then, anxiety remained throughout the sect.

 

Having become a Sect Master at a very young age, the new Sect Master had no disciple of his own. He was worried that he might die suddenly like his master, so he informed the Elders of the Violet Mist Sword Art technique.

 

Even though it was very unlikely for him to die, nothing was certain in a world filled with chaos and war.

 

And thanks to these circumstances, Ju Seo-Cheon was able to learn this technique.

 

‘The Violet Mist Sword Art doesn’t show any special characteristic until one reaches a certain point in cultivation.’

 

Only when the violet air currents appear, does it become noticeable. But, on the contrary, until one reached that point, Violet Mist Sword Art was weak.

 

He knew mastering these techniques would be difficult but as he had the experience and memories of his previous life, he could be relaxed at doing these. This also gave Ju Seo-Cheon a more advanced path than the others.

 

‘I just need to hide my powers until the Age of Wars starts, after that I can just come up with a good reason.’

 

He still had not mastered the Plum Blossom Qi Art and thus his Dantian had still not been formed, and due to that he couldn’t yet learn the Violet Mist Sword Art technique. However as he was the only one who could practice the Violet Mist Sword Art except the Sect Master, he was already looking forward to the results.
