“Ah, if your heart is not in it, how can any task be… accomplished?” Wang Ao stared wide-eyed at the book he had opened.

“But once fused, the Heroic Spirit cannot be separated again, and it will also lose its own reasoning, just like a commoner-level Heroic Spirit.”

“No, I must pull myself together. The Wang Family may be gone, but I’m still here, and the ancestral Heroic Spirits are still with us.”

“Wait, they can’t be thinking of taking refuge in the Sky Tower, can they?”

“More importantly, after fusion, it turns out that one can nurture a Heroic Spirit with one’s own Spiritual Power, allowing the Heroic Spirit’s potential to evolve.”

“The time to rise is today.” A sparkle flashed in Wang Ao’s eyes; he understood that if he seized this opportunity, within a month, he could make his way to the site of the Sky Tower and perhaps even take refuge inside it.

“The Secret Technique, it’s actually a Secret Technique; our ancestor actually left the Secret Technique in his journal, which is simply unbelievable.”

“To be able to merge with a Heroic Spirit and gain all of its power.”

“Go look in the study for records.”

“‘Thirty years on the east side of the river and thirty years on the west side, never underestimate the young and poor!'” Wang Ao spoke softly.

“Yes, the demons won’t give me thirty years.” He felt some helplessness, being the Young Master of the Wang Family, he should have been unparalleled.

“Sss~ this… is too powerful.”

“Sky Tower, Heavenly Order, once every ten years?”

“I recall the former Family Head entered a place called the Sky Tower and obtained powerful Cultivation Techniques and Secret Techniques, which enabled him to break through to Eighth Grade and establish the Wang Family.”

“In my life, Wang Ao, I am second to none. If not for the shackle of my Heroic Spirit Potential, why would I have wasted years still stuck at First Grade.”

“Does that mean there’s also a chance for me?” Wang Ao looked at the perfectly preserved Heavenly Order. This item showed no fluctuations of Spiritual Energy, so most people would assume it’s a special Item, unless one knew about the Sky Tower; otherwise, it would definitely not be recognized.

“Primordial Spirit Unification Method?”

“This must be the Secret Technique that our ancestor brought out from the Sky Tower back then.”

“It’s just that my own strength is too weak, from Northern Victory State to Central Origin State, it’s simply impossible.” Wang Ao knew that if he were a Third Grade Spirit Summoner, he would fearlessly leave, but at merely First Grade, there was absolutely no chance of making it to Central Origin State alive.

The entire army of three million people from Baijing State was wiped out; not one escaped, even the Ninth Grade Spirit Summoners weren’t spared, let alone his family.

He had expected to hear victorious jubilations, but never imagined such an immense catastrophe instead.

Don’t think that major families only exploit the ordinary people; their appetites are much larger than one might imagine, they want not only the “mosquito legs” but also the “fatty meat.”

But it is predicated on having the Heavenly Order; without it, one can only remain on the periphery, and with it, one could enter the inner hall of the Sky Tower, thus living a better life.

The woman on the other side couldn’t help but sneer, “Thirty years? The demons won’t wait thirty years for you.”

For Wang Ao, this was an opportunity.

Then he couldn’t help but collapse onto the chair, his expression very forlorn.

Following that, a surge of ecstasy immediately overwhelmed the initial dismay.

Fortunately, every major family in the city was in the same situation, with basically one or two people left.

Since he had received the benefits, he must take on the responsibilities that come with them; endowed with the Main Character Aura, it was time to do what protagonist ought to do.

After replacing the ancestral book on the bookshelf, he accidentally dropped it to the floor.

With the sunlight, Wang Ao quickly copied the content of the Secret Technique, then studied it thoroughly.

But everything changed after the appearance of the Demon Tribulation; first, all the Wang Family’s Spirit Summoners were conscripted to Baijing State to counter the Tribulation.

A feeling named discouragement surged, this won’t work, that won’t work, it’s just too upsetting.

Even among those major families, there genuinely aren’t many items that elevate Heroic Spirit Potential, and they are extremely tightly controlled, absolutely not to be released lightly.

There are very few people who can break through the bottleneck after their Heroic Spirit Potential is exhausted unless they have some sort of unique adventure or genius; otherwise, ordinary folks are bound their whole lives to that level.

The reason it’s called a bottleneck is because it’s hard to break through. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be too easy for everyone to break their class boundaries?

That is, unless Qin Muye had fed them hormones again, causing them to carry over a thousand Luck, otherwise, even if they grew, they’d still be termed as thirty-day hormone main characters.

If the Wang Family ancestor genuinely had Emperor Level potential, how could he have lived in poverty? The Court surely would have absorbed such potential Heroic Spirits, and if not the Court, the great families would have supported them. By then, once the Wang Family ancestor had married into a family, there’d essentially be no problem acquiring whatever Resources they wanted.

Had it not been necessary for the various great families to maintain stability and to avoid provoking public outrage, they would have long since fattened these small and medium families like pigs for slaughter rather than slowly draining them.

In fact, if he hadn’t been the only son, he really wouldn’t have taken up this position of Young Master.

The pages suddenly flew open.

Having said that, the woman left with her people.

So, inheritance was quite limited, like the items that enhanced Heroic Spirit Potential were naturally no longer available; whether they were Cultivation Techniques or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, all of them were exceedingly precious.

He hastily picked it up and then inspected it through the sunlight.

He didn’t go because he was the sole son of the Wang Family; this had saved him from a calamity. If it were other great families, they could only keep the eldest legitimate son at home to continue the family lineage, or, even more disastrously, a legitimate grandson, who would be even younger.

Although he had become a Spirit Summoner, he was just at First Grade, because his Heroic Spirit Potential was Soldier Level, and he wasn’t even from the main ancestral line.

He knew this from the books and records left by the Wang Family ancestor; otherwise, he wouldn’t have known that such an ordinary-looking Golden Iron Token was the legendary Heavenly Order.

Suddenly, Wang Ao thought of his fiancée. Speaking of which, the best refuge would definitely be the Sky Tower.

Wang Ao stumbled into the study and quickly found the record.

Wang Ao looked grimly at the young woman who had come to break off their engagement; he had never thought he would end up in such a plight.

Wang Ao carefully uttered five words.

Wang Ao knew, the Heroic Spirit of the Wang Family ancestor definitely wasn’t an Emperor Level, more likely it had been upgraded gradually through the Primordial Spirit Unification Method.

The Wang Family wasn’t a great family, and even after so many generations, they had not existed for long, and becoming a great family also involved a lot of luck.

What the ancestor managed to achieve, he, Wang Ao, could achieve as well.

Like this kind of Secret Technique, which you can tell is extraordinary just by the name, there wasn’t a single one available.

The sunlight shone right through the window onto that page, revealing a strange Shadow that looked as though something was hidden in the crevice of the page.

The Wang Family did have Secret Techniques, but they weren’t particularly significant, generally involving attack, Defense, and movement.

Thus, in the past, to reach Eighth Grade wasn’t reliant on innate potential, but on one’s own efforts.

Moreover, even if he reached there, there would certainly be many powerful Spirit Summoners preparing to take refuge in the Sky Tower, by then, a First Grade Spirit Summoner like him would probably end up as a servant to others.

Before, Wang Ao was indeed an ordinary person, but afterward, he wasn’t an ordinary person anymore, for his Main Character Aura had arrived.

When the disastrous news came back, the Wang Family collapsed; after all, he was the only one left. What sort of great family was that?

After the Wang Family fell into disgrace, his fiancée, whom he had been betrothed to since childhood, also came to break off the engagement, reportedly planning to take refuge with the offspring of a great family, to avoid losing their lives when the Demons break out next time.

This was beneficial for their class, as well as ruling and exploiting those small and medium families.

There was a whole state between them, and with just over a month left until the Sky Tower opened, he didn’t have the capability.

If such an item existed, the other great families would probably struggle fiercely to seize it.

Just as the saying goes: Thirty years on this side of the river, thirty years on that.

Even if he was mediocre and incompetent before, under the support of the Main Character Aura, everything would continuously move toward the predetermined goal. If he didn’t walk, someone would push him to.

As long as he avoided the Demon Tribulation, he would be able to rise step by step, and even reshape the cosmos.

In terms of Heroic Spirits, honestly, it was just a Soldier Level Spirit. Its power wasn’t that great; it was no big loss if it was gone.
