Serpent Ancestor

Yuan Ming, harboring his doubts, keenly observed Lin Junsheng’s cultivation process. He quickly noticed that the way Lin Junsheng circulated his technique, and the sensations of mana flowing through his meridians, were significantly clearer than what he had experienced when practicing the Explosive Flame Technique in the body of the young emperor.

Lin Junsheng’s cultivation method closely resembled the Nine Elements Decision, a technique Yuan Ming had largely mastered through self-study, without any mentor’s guidance. Directly experiencing it in contrast with his own practice of the Nine Elements Decision, Yuan Ming found this observation surprisingly beneficial.

Nevertheless, Yuan Ming’s purpose in attaching himself to Lin Junsheng wasn’t for these insights. He intended to investigate whether Lin Junsheng had any connection to a recent assassination attempt on himself. But with Lin Junsheng engrossed in his immobile practice, Yuan Ming found himself unable to delve into this matter.
