  After talking with his father, Jiang Xu returned to his room.

  He first went to take a bath, then sat on the sofa and began to merge with the familiar imperial soul memories that were like a flood in his mind.

  These ancient imperial soul memories were all precious wealth for Jiang Xu, and by fusing them, he was equivalent to grasping everything these emperors knew.

  Whether it's medical skills, strategic planning, or military tactics, or even music, chess, calligraphy, and poetry, Jiang Xu's current level is probably already worthy of being described as "transcending the ordinary and entering the realm of the saints". However, what is truly most precious are these emperors' great wisdom and great luck, which will enable Jiang Xu's soul and essence to gradually undergo a transformation that is like a rebirth.

  However, these imperial souls' memories will probably have some influence on Jiang Xu's personality in the future.

  These effects have both positive and negative aspects.

  For example, the overbearing manner of Qin Shi Huang, the lofty vision of Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, and the elegant demeanor of Emperor Xuanren Yan Yizhen, as well as ambition, which is almost a common trait among all emperors.

  It wasn't until he had spent almost the entire night that Jiang Xiu finally fully merged and grasped these imperial souls' memories, and made complete arrangements for his future life.

  Jiang Xu set three goals for himself. First, he wanted to help his father rise to power and reach the pinnacle of authority.

  Secondly, revenge. Whether it's Ah Gu or Li Si Chen, Jiang Xu will return the hatred from before his rebirth with a price tenfold or hundredfold. And as for the forces backing Li Si Chen, Jiang Xu won't let them off either.

  The third is strength, strong personal strength.

  Whether it was the First Emperor of Qin or Xuan Ren Emperor Duan Yu, who was known as the Martial Saint, none of them were able to fully master the martial arts by simply merging their soul memories. Even the most exquisite martial art manuals required internal energy to complement them, and this internal energy had to be cultivated by Jiang Xu himself.

  "Tathagata Divine Palm, Yi Jin Jing, North Ming Divine Power, Six Pulse Divine Sword..."

  A stir in his heart, a set of legendary martial arts classics suddenly appeared in Jiang Xu's mind.

  Just as Jiang Xu decided to choose a set of martial arts to cultivate, suddenly, a ray of spiritual light flashed by, and four mysterious and ancient large characters appeared in Jiang Xu's mind.

  "Emperor's Soul Scripture."

  Jiang Xu had not yet reacted when he felt countless mysterious messages merging with his soul, which turned out to be a set of mysterious and eerie martial arts classics, and the name of this martial arts classic was - Emperor Soul Heart Sutra.

  "Absorb soul power, control the soul..."

  Jiang Xu Meng suddenly opened his eyes, and his face was filled with an incredulous expression.

  This is actually a set of eerie martial arts that can absorb the essence of soul energy and control souls. When cultivated to the extreme, it can even control any soul for use, turning them into the practitioner's soul puppet.

  Moreover, the Emperor's Soul Scripture has another wonderful aspect: the soul power essence it absorbs will form soul energy within the body. This soul energy can replace internal energy and be combined with any martial arts classics to achieve an effect that surpasses internal energy.

  Such a wonderful martial art is tempting to Jiang Xu, and it's not necessary to hesitate at all. Jiang Xu has already made up his mind.

  Once again closing his eyes, Jiang Xu began to circulate the Emperor's Soul Scripture.

  The Emperor's Soul Scripture has six levels of realms, and Jiang Xu is currently cultivating the first level - Nirvana Realm, which implies the nirvana and sublimation of the soul and body.

  The Heart Method began to operate, and Jiang Xiu could clearly feel that there were white air currents gathering around him with him as the center.

  These white air currents are the essence of the soul's soul power, and the soul power is not the soul itself, but a kind of life essence emitted by the soul. Even if it is absorbed, it will not have any impact on the soul. The more living beings around, the more concentrated the soul power will be.

  Jiang Xu's body had all its meridians open like a ferocious beast with its mouth wide open, frantically devouring those strands of soul force essence.

  The essence of soul power quickly merged into Jiang Xiu's body, every acupuncture point, every tendon and every block of flesh and blood.

  Jiang Xuh had a very, very strange feeling in his heart. His body seemed to be slowly transforming, as if it were a butterfly waiting to break out of its cocoon and welcome an unimaginable new life.

  Time is slowly passing by, and the sky is also gradually brightening.

  Jiang Xu didn't know how long he had been cultivating, he was completely immersed in that wonderful feeling, until the knocking sound came from outside, and only then did he reluctantly come back to his senses from cultivation.

  "Xiao Xue, are you going to school today? You're almost late." Jiang Qiming's voice sounded from outside the door, and it was already past 7 o'clock in the morning.

  "Got it, Dad, I'll go after washing my face."

  Jiang Xu first responded with a "yes", and subconsciously stood up, wanting to head towards the bathroom, but it was just a simple movement of standing up. However, his entire body seemed to shoot up like a rocket, his head almost hitting the ceiling.

  "Ah."

  Jiang Xu himself was startled, and it wasn't until he landed that he realized his body had become much lighter, as if it were a weightless feather.

  Moreover, his physical strength seemed to have a stream of energy flowing endlessly, circulating in circles, even if he didn't sleep all night, but his vitality was still extremely abundant.

  "This Emperor's Soul Scripture is really amazing, it seems that my decision was indeed correct..."

  The first time he practiced the Emperor's Soul Scripture, he had such a miraculous and obvious effect, which made Jiang Xu's face filled with excitement.

  With a sudden movement in his heart, Jiang Xu's gaze shifted to the pen holder on the side desk. He suddenly pointed and waved, and a formless airflow shot out from between his index fingers, swiftly shooting towards the pen holder like a swift thunderbolt.

  Bang

  With a loud crash, the pen holder was blown high into the air.

  Jiang Xu's body moved swiftly, and he actually caught the pen holder before it hit the ground. His movements were as agile as a dragon, with incredible speed that was unmatched.

  "As expected, soul force energy can replace internal force and can be combined with any martial arts mental method."

  Jiang Xu's face was even more excited, because he had just used the One Yang Finger and Ling Bo Micro Step, two great absolute skills, everything was so effortless, without any stagnation.

  However, he had just begun to cultivate the Emperor's Soul Scripture, and the soul energy in his body was still very weak. With just a slight movement of his hand, the energy stream had already become much weaker, and for the time being, he was unable to use it as he pleased.

  It was almost time to go to school, so Jiang Xiu didn't study anymore. He hastily washed up and changed his clothes before heading out the door.

  ▂▂▂▂▂▂

  He had just walked out of the room when Jiang Xu saw his father waiting for him in the hall.

  Jiang Qiming sat on the sofa in the outer hall, smoking and reading the newspaper, with several cigarette butts already thrown into the ashtray.

  Jiang Xu knew his father's smoking habit was serious, but he still walked over and snatched the cigarette from his father's hand, saying: "Dad, smoking in the morning is very harmful to your body, so try to smoke less in the mornings from now on."

  Jiang Qiming was taken aback for a moment, in his impression, Jiang Xu seemed to never care about others, not even himself as a father.

  "Alright, Dad promises you, from now on I'll try not to smoke in the mornings." For some reason, Jiang Qiming's eyes became slightly moist, and his tone was filled with a few more notes of excitement.

  "Dad, I'm going to school now. Tonight, I want to eat the braised pork you cook, it's been a long time since I've had it and I really miss it."

  "Okay, okay, I'll stir-fry a big plate for you tonight."

  Jiang Qiming almost didn't hesitate and agreed, his face couldn't help but reveal a relieved smile.

  When he was young, Jiang Xu's favorite dish was the braised pork his father cooked, but after growing up, Jiang Xu stopped eating it and rarely came home for meals. Jiang Qiming had even forgotten when they last had a meal together.

  Jiang Xu then raised an eyebrow and said, "Dad, it's just one dish, even if it were a pot, I could finish it."

  "Don't worry, there's as much as you want to eat."

  Jiang Qiming worried that Jiang Xu would be late, and continued to say: "Alright, hurry up and go to school, or you'll be late. By the way, there's soy milk and bread in the kitchen, take them with you to eat at school."

  "Got it, Dad, I'll go first."

  Jiang Xu responded with a sound, then he went downstairs.
