Then Wang Han put on a new, elegant black suit, reflecting on the details of his techniques before opening his front door to leave: 'The principle behind the Sacred Beast Absorption Technique is that the stronger one's body, the faster it can absorb Qi, which means a higher cultivation rate as well. But I never expected that my body wouldn't even withstand the effects of the minimum basic cultivation rate using this technique.' 'But that's why the Beast Blood Refinement Technique exists. It's the accompanying Body Refinement Technique that solves this problem. It's a technique that uses the blood of beasts to refine the body by bathing in it. The user gains physical strength similar to the beast whose blood they absorbed, but they just can absorb the blood of a beast whose level is one major domain higher than the cultivator's.' Wang Han headed to the Clan Leader's Hall. As soon as he entered, his father looked up, a smile spreading across his face. 'Son, you've already broken through to the Seven Star Trainee Realm. That's a truly pleasant surprise.' Wang Shu stood up and grasped his son's shoulders with a look of appreciation and pride, adding with a happy laugh, "I was already planning to call you in for your engagement with Lu Xian, and now your breakthrough will make the joy even greater, haha! The engagement will be tomorrow, Wang Han, so let's surprise everyone with your breakthrough then!" "Well, this will shut people up and make them realize that I'm the most suitable to marry Lu Xian. Everyone has always considered Wang Kai a genius and the one worthy of the young lady of the Lu family, and now I'll show them otherwise. Just wait for the Three Cities Competition, Father, I'll surprise you and everyone else with the results." Wang Han said confidently, his eyes brimming with happiness, 'Finally, my relationship with Lu Xian will be official.' "Good, I trust you, my son. But before you think about the Three Cities Competition, focus first on the Clan Competition, which will be held in a month. There, you can prove yourself as the future Clan Master and the best of the younger generation." "Alright, alright, don't worry." Wang Han said dismissively, having heard this so often, before approaching his father and whispering softly: "Create a soundproof barrier." Wang Shu's expression shifted for a second before he returned to his normal self, as if nothing had happened, creating a transparent shield of Qi around himself and his son, effectively isolating them. "What is it, Wang Han?" Wang Shu asked, his tone now cautious and completely different from before, though his facial expression remained the same. "Don't worry, it's good news, actually quite wonderful. I've inherited the legacy of a very powerful ancient cultivator, and now I possess many different Mystery Grade... and even Earth Grade techniques!" "What?! Mystery-grade techniques, even Earth-grade techniques?! Is what you're saying true, my boy?!" Wang Shu couldn't contain his shock. He raised his voice, grabbed Wang Han's shoulders, and began shaking him, waiting for confirmation. "Yes, it's true. Stop shaking me like that," Wang Han replied, annoyed by his father's constant shaking, but a small smile still played on his lips. "Hahaha, God has blessed my family! Finally, we can soar high in this world and surpass and crush those who underestimated us. We will become a noble family, even one of the strongest families in the empire!" Wang Shu burst with joy at Wang Han's simple confirmation and drifted off into his dreams, completely forgetting his appearance. 'What simple dreams! Is this empire all you can imagine, Father? Really?' Wang Han thought, but he didn't voice his thoughts for fear of being beaten. 'Ahem, Father, calm down. We don't want the news to spread.' Wang Han coughed a few seconds later, seeing that Wang Shu was still talking to himself and daydreaming, bringing him back to reality. 'Ah, ahem, yes, that's right.' Wang Shu finally regained his comp
