131 PREPARATION FOR BREAK-THROUGH
The general office soon heard about Su nqi’s break-through to the Qi general level. The requirent of capable subordinates is an integral part of the war. Su nqi’s break-through was a boon for the military forces.
“I congratulate you on the break-through. I expect you to adhere to the responsibilities that co with your new position.” Su nqi didn’t want to get promoted.
“I would like to return to my previous position as the team leader of Vice-general Long’s squad.” The general was shocked by this display of loyalty. Every surviving mber of the original Black-buck squad was just like this. They decided to work under Long Tao.
“I comnd your loyalty to Long Tao, but this is a serious matter. You can’t act like a child in this case. You are powerful enough to lead a battalion of your own. It’s your ti to be in charge of your force.”
Su nqi could understand the reason behind the general’s words. “I appreciate your reasoning, sir, but I am indebted to Long Tao. We in the Balck-buck squad have a significant debt to pay. We try our best to live up to his expectations. I can’t leave my post as his subordinate. Not until I manage to defeat him.”
” Long Tao insisted for you to take this job. He wants you to lead the battalion belonging to Jiao Bo until he returns from the capital. He knew you would say that. He, as your previous chief herby orders you to take the job.” The general forwarded a docunt to Su nqi.
She couldn’t believe her ears. Long Tao wanted her to take the job.

” You managed to get a working sample of Qi replenishing and enriching pills. Your weapon refinent skills have upgraded due to the recent research into the explosive devices. I think its ti you start your break-through.”
Long Tao didn’t reply to this comnt. He wanted to break-through, but his gut felt like it was not yet full.
” I have a feeling that Break-through is near. I won’t be hastening my break-through into Qi general. I will continue absorbing more Qi into my system. It’s not yet full.”
” I think Qi is not a problem here. In my opinion, it’s your soul. Although you managed to break-through the last cycle, a soul Qi deficit was experienced. Your soul needs to be calm and replenished first.”
” I guess we need to request for so soul calming pills from my master. He might suspect these actions of mine. I don’t want to shock him by letting him know that I am about to break-through. I don’t want him involved in the matters of my secrets.”
” I have a suggestion for you.” The Keeper’s words brought a soothing feel to Long Tao’s ears. ” Will it help out of this situation.” Long Tao was hopeful about getting a better option.
” I am sure there are so local herbs present which could help calm people’s mind.”. ” there are a lot of herbs, but the problem is my cultivation level. The herbs present in the vicinity are effective on Qi child and Qi masters. I am too strong for them to work.”
“We can try to concentrate their essence just like we did in the case of the thunder balls.”
” The thunder balls were effective because the thunder was a cultivation resource of suitable quality. These herbs are not ant for Qi generals.” Long Tao’s spirit was taking a huge hit from this realization.

“What if we use a sedative.” It was Long tao who pitched the idea.
” My idea is a no go boy. I was hopeful, but your logic is precise. It won’t work.”
“According to my assumptions, the reason those herbs are no longer effective is due to the resistance offered by the body to them.” The Keeper was interested in the theory.
“As one continues to get stronger, their body starts to get resistant towards the less effective herbs. What if we can cheat the body.”
” how do you propose we do that.” The theoretical evaluation of the situation seed perfect. They needed a practical solution to the problem.
” By using multiple poisons. We can use sedatives to poison my body. My immune system will start an instant response to fight it back. We can use the opportunity to sneak in the herbs into my body. The herbs would be effective in that case.”
Although the theory was comndable, a practical application might yield unexpected results. ” We will never know until we try. Bring all the soul calming herbs in the garden. We will be extracting their essences. I hope the experint yields so results.”
” I just hope there aren’t any adverse consequences of the experint. The soul is the most fragile part of a cultivator’s existence.”

The Blackbuck dwelling-
” I have a new task for you people today. You are to collect an extra set of herbs in addition to those on your list. These herbs will be utilized to create ditation candles for you to calm your mind while in cultivation.”
The soldiers had to experience extre distress due to training and other tasks. It resulted in a deviation from their general ditative cultivation ti. They couldn’t focus on ditating. These herbs would be useful for them too.
The soldiers were happy to comply. The target of achieving a brek-through in their current cultivation put a lot of stress on them. It might help them calm down.
” Another task has been designed for you too. The second piece of equipnt which I intended to be used during the war is ready for trials. We then switch to mass production for the army. The projects need to remain secret too.”
” I will be instructing you about the schematics when we arrive at the workshop.”
” We will also be increasing your weights today. The resistance offered by the one being used currently is not good enough.” The moral of the soldiers went down. An increase in weight was a nightmare for them.

” I would like to have a private chat with you, Long Tao.” Su nqi arrived on the training grounds. Both of them proceeded towards the training room.
