Chapter 847 - 691: Butcher and Blacksmith Level 25
"I need to first improve my skills as a butcher and blacksmith, and once the proficiency of these two professions reaches the next level, I’ll work on enhancing the others one by one."
Qin An felt a subtle movement in his heart, waving away the smoke before him, and made plans for the next steps.
Currently, nothing else could trouble him; at least before the arrival of the Heavenly Demon, only the traitors of the Forbidden Area might bring a bit of crisis.
But now, these traitors of the Forbidden Area should not be capable of causing any disturbances for the time being.
Since there’s no disturbance, it’s best to improve oneself early and cultivate the skills to a higher level of proficiency.
The higher the proficiency in the professions, the stronger one’s own power will be.
When he’s strong enough to elevate his own power to the Celestial Human Realm, he can then look for ways to acquire the corresponding supreme foundation to successfully step into that realm.
This way, he can possess the power to confront the Heavenly Demon and its pack of minions.
Apart from this, there is no other way.
Therefore, upon returning to the Imperial Palace, Qin An did not meet Emperor Xuanwu.
He wanted to improve himself quickly and not waste any time.
The Imperial Palace had a dedicated place for weapons forging, which was convenient enough.
As for the butcher’s profession, the imperial kitchen had a corresponding slaughterhouse, which wasn’t a problem for him either.
"Then let’s begin now."
The journey back from the Sea of Hope was long, but since there were no incidents along the way, he didn’t feel fatigued.
Without wasting any time, he then made up his mind and got up to head towards the imperial kitchen.
Since he intended to comprehensively enhance the two professions, he planned to start with the butcher profession.
Very soon, Qin An’s silhouette disappeared at the end of the street of the Imperial Palace.
...
Time passed swiftly, and many days went by.
During this period, the Daqian Kingdom had become increasingly peaceful, as if there was no crisis appearing anymore.
Whether it’s those Demon Pseudo-Gods or the traitors of the Forbidden Area, they seemed to be waiting for something, falling into an unimaginable calm.
And this period of calm brought great benefits.
The many cultivators of the Daqian Kingdom could use this time to cultivate fervently, and in their cultivation, everyone made gains.
Life went on peacefully, but whether it’s the common folk of the Daqian Kingdom or those cultivators, they found this tranquility to be a dream-like desire.
During this peaceful life, anyone who understood a bit about cultivation would instinctively glance towards the direction of the Imperial Palace while practicing.
That man who rose throughout his life filled with legends, after returning to the capital city, had made no moves.
No one knew why, but news spread from the Imperial Palace, and many speculated about what he was doing.
Besides frequenting the slaughterhouse and the weapons forging area, Qin An seemed to have faded from the world, no longer appearing in the public eye.
Those familiar with Qin An actually all knew that each time he vanished from sight, it signified a period of profound dormancy.
And when Qin An emerged from seclusion, he would inevitably cause a dramatic stir.
They didn’t know what kind of stir Qin An would cause, but they did know one thing: they just needed to wait and watch.
Meanwhile, within the Imperial Palace, Qin An finished a day’s cultivation and had just returned to his room, unable to suppress a faint smile with a touch of joy.
Only he knew how carefree and at ease he had lived in recent times.
Due to Emperor Xuanwu’s orders, no one disturbed him, and he smoothly cultivated these professions within the Imperial Palace.
Although the daily life was dull, it was comfortable enough, and Qin An particularly enjoyed this peaceful and uneventful life.
Of course, this dull period wasn’t without its rewards.
As of now, the gains have been quite substantial.
Returning to his seat, Qin An poured a cup of tea and drank it slowly before exhaling deeply.
Looking at the void ahead, where smoke gradually gathered, he couldn’t help but smile again.
"Finally trained both the butcher and blacksmith professions to level twenty-five."
Level twenty-five was a significant advancement, and for Qin An, it took considerable time, but the benefits would be even greater.
As Qin An pondered, misty letters suddenly appeared before him.
