On this cold morning, Eadric Rong quickly cleaned the courtyard of Sanqing Temple. The air felt piercing against his skin, making his breath appear as thin vapor in the air.

Although it was already mid-winter, snow had not yet fallen, and the leaves of the maple trees planted on the shrine grounds had already fallen. They looked dry without leaves, giving an impression of desolation and frost.

Eadric Rong continued to sweep and organize the temple grounds to ensure they looked neat and clean for the pilgrims who came to pray.

The sound of the broom scraping the ground echoed softly, mingling with the gentle breeze. The smell of wet soil and dry leaves filled the air, adding to the silence of the morning.

Eadric Rong even lit a sandalwood-scented incense stick in the prayer hall. The thin smoke from the incense swirled around, spreading a soothing aroma that blended with the fragrance of the temple's old wood. After making sure everything was in order, he left.

His face was smiling, as

  • The Gathering at Qingyung Mountain.

    Early morning on Qingyun Mountain shrouded in a thin mist that gently blew through ancient pine trees, the air was filled with extraordinary bustle and anticipation. The disciples of the Pure Sky Sect moved like a row of graceful white cranes gliding across still water, prepared themselves in their ceremonial robes that marked this special occasion.The pristine white robes reflect the morning sunlight filtering through clouds, creating a mesmerizing scene that drew gasps from onlookers. They march in perfect formation with synchronized steps along the narrow path leading to the main arena at the summit of the mountain, where the grand ceremony is about to begin and change the fate of many.A guest from the Four Star Sect named Liu Wei whose reputation for keen observation was well known, whispered to his companion from the Three Star Sect, Zhang Hui. "Look at the disciples of the Pure Sky Sect with attention! Their movements are so graceful and refined, full of discipline that speaks

  • The Sword Meeting at Qingyun Mountain – Part II.

    Instantly without delay, the room erupted into a chorus of whispers and gasps of awe that merged into deafening cacophony. Every cultivator present, merchant seeking fortune, and even the tea house attendants who normally remained detached seemed hypnotized by the shocking news that would change their lives forever.Rong Tian fell into deep thought that removed him from the chaos around him, his mind wandering far away to dark possibilities. "Qingyun Mountain where the Pure Sky Sect resides..." he murmured to himself with voice barely audible, a faint smile forming on his lips that held no warmth."What is really going on behind all this spectacle? What are they planning that requires such elaborate setup?"News about the Flaming Heart Sword known as Huo Xin Jian spread like wildfire throughout the city of Biramaki, spreading quickly and unstoppably through every district and alleyway. Blood red flyers with striking gold lettering that caught the eye were posted in every corner of the

  • The Sword Meeting at Qingyun Mountain – Part I.

    Rong Tian sitting several tables behind them in a shadowy corner, listened intently with every fiber of his being, his attention fully focused on the conversation unfolding before him. His hands clenched the teacup with increasing pressure, creating fine cracks on its porcelain surface that spread like spider webs, a sign that his mind was working hard to process the implications of what he heard."Does this have anything to do with the State Teacher's plan to ignite war?" Rong Tian thought to himself with growing suspicion, his dark eyes flashing with barely concealed wariness, a bad feeling beginning to envelop him like a suffocating blanket.Other tea house patrons also moved closer with chairs scraping against wooden floors, curiosity overcoming their natural shyness and caution. A plump merchant dragged his chair closer with obvious eagerness written on his flushed face, while a woman in green silk pretended to adjust her hairpin while eavesdropping with practiced subtlety, tryin

  • The Huo Xin Jian Sword – Part II

    The sun began to tilt toward the west painting the sky in shades of orange and red, casting long shadows between the towering buildings of the city. Rong Tian remained seated in the teahouse for hours watching the flow of people, his mind drifting back to the secret conversation he had overheard at the funeral between the Prince and State Master, the words etched deeply into his memory like carvings in stone."Patience is required," he thought with effort to control his impatience. "A cunning plan like this requires careful preparation and proper timing, the right moment to reveal the truth and ignite the flames of war."He finished his tea with final sip that drained the cup, preparing to continue his investigation through the city. He felt a faint spiritual vibration flowing throughout his body like electricity, as if the universe itself was sensing his unease and responding to his heightened awareness.At the end of his cultivation period at the imperial cemetery after many nights

  • The Huo Xin Jian Sword – Part I

    The city of Biramaki after the Dragon Boat Festival was quiet and deserted like a ghost town. The beach which had been crowded with people celebrating just days ago, now only had traces of fading crowds scattered everywhere: colorful pieces of paper, loose ribbons fluttering in the wind, and scattered fine sand that glistened under the pale sunlight.After Qi Yu's unexpected departure that left questions unanswered, Rong Tian's life returned to its original course without her presence. He accompanied his father whose health was gradually improving with each passing day, or chose to be alone in contemplation, wandering down quiet streets with hands clasped behind his back.However, every night when darkness fell over the city, one certain goal haunted him like an obsession he couldn't shake. The Imperial Cemetery called to him with promises of power and advancement beyond mortal limits."My cultivation progress is too rapid for my foundation to stabilize properly," he murmured to himse

  • Secret Conversation – Part II.

    They spoke in such a low voice that even Rong Tian's enhanced hearing couldn't catch a single word. Only the movement of their lips and their serious expressions were visible in the pale moonlight filtering through the willow trees.In an effort to hear more clearly by leaning forward, Rong Tian accidentally stepped on a dry willow branch hidden beneath fallen leaves.CRACK!The sound of the broken branch shatters the silence of the night like a thunderclap, like lightning splitting the sky and announcing danger to all who could hear.Teacher Lin immediately turned his head with speed that betrayed his high cultivation, his eagle like eyes locking onto Rong Tian's position within the magical illusion that concealed him. "Who's eavesdropping on matters of state!" he shouted with voice that carried across the cemetery.In an instant faster than mortal eye could follow, he drew his sword from its sheath with metallic ring. The sword's energy shimmered with deadly intent, creating waves p
