Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 68: Chapter 68 Gaining a Blessing in Disguise_1

Glug, glug!

The moment Ling Xiao entered the Cold-Pond Golden Fluid, he actually felt that the liquid was entering his body directly through his pores, then flowed through every single capillary blood vessel.

The icy aura nearly froze his blood vessels solid.

He was startled, and images of cultivating the Snow Lotus Qi Technique immediately surfaced in his mind.

The Gang Qi cultivated from the Snow Lotus Qi Technique was of the ice attribute, which suggested that this cold energy could likely be absorbed.

With this thought, he did not dare to delay and quickly circulated his Gang Qi in accordance with the methods of the Snow Lotus Qi Technique.

The next moment, something surprising happened, the cold energy was all absorbed by the Snow Lotus Qi Technique, then condensed into Gang Qi.

The Gang Qi that he had previously lost was rapidly replenished.

Not only that, but when the first layer of the Snow Lotus Qi Technique was finished, his cultivation level had actually completely stabilized at the Martial Vessel Quadruple Layer Peak.

Although he was close before, there was still a distance to go, yet now, in just a brief moment, he had already reached the peak of the Martial Vein Quadruple Layer.

It even seemed that breaking through to the Martial Pulse Fifth Level would not be a problem.

However, the absorption of the cold energy was one thing, but the gold liquid mixing in his blood made him very uncomfortable.

In his urgency, Ling Xiao simultaneously began to cultivate the Nine Rotations Golden Body Technique.

Under normal circumstances, no one would cultivate two types of martial arts at the same time because it would not only be distracting but might also prevent both from being effectively enhanced.

But the current situation was special, and Ling Xiao could not afford to worry about that.

Sure enough, after the start of the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique’s circulation, the golden liquid in his body began to be absorbed.

Wonderful!

It was simply indescribably fantastic!

The cold energy was used to cultivate the Snow Lotus Qi Technique, greatly enhancing the Gang Qi.

The golden fluid was used to cultivate the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique, significantly strengthening the body’s resilience.

And his soul did not feel the slightest burden.

It seemed that this was mostly related to the Cold-Pond Golden Fluid; just before he had entered a ”Soul Entry” state, so his soul was actually quite exhausted.

But after entering the Cold Pond Golden Fluid, even the soul seemed to be nourished.

It goes to show that in addition to Gang Qi and the body, the Cold-Pond Golden Fluid could also reinforce the soul to a certain extent.

It was just a pity that there were no secret methods for cultivating the soul; otherwise, it would have been even better.

However, one should not be too greedy. Under the current circumstances, it should be said that things were already very good; it was a tremendous stroke of luck for him.

He stopped thinking about it, closed his eyes, and concentrated on cultivating the Snow Lotus Qi Technique and the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique.

Both were top-tier martial arts, which felt different from advanced martial arts.

As time went by, the Cold Pond Golden Fluid was rapidly depleting, and if someone were standing by, they would notice.

In just about half an hour, it had gone down by at least an inch.

But in return, both of Ling Xiao’s top-tier martial arts were quickly improving.

The cold energy and the golden fluid were almost evenly split, so both top-tier martial arts received roughly equal opportunities to improve.

Another half an hour passed, and Ling Xiao’s face showed a look of surprise.

He felt that his realm was showing faint signs of breakthrough.

At this point, the Snow Lotus Qi Technique had been cultivated to the third layer, reaching the Elementary Realm.

He could clearly discern that his Gang Qi had reached an extremely terrifying level; in terms of quantity alone, it was feared that even an ordinary Martial Meridians Sixth Level Martial Artist could not compare with him.

The enhancement of Gang Qi by cold energy was truly horrifying.

Meanwhile, the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique had broken through barriers, advancing from the fourth rotation directly to the fifth rotation.

The Fifth Rotation of the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique was the Small Success Realm of this top-tier defensive martial art, where the body was incredibly sturdy from the inside out, impervious to blades and spears.

And the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique at the Small Success Realm had also enhanced his defensive power to the Peak of Fifth Level Martial Pulse standard, and even slightly stronger.

His strength had increased by about three hundred jin, now approaching one thousand five hundred jin.

Previously, his attack strength was the strongest, having reached the attack level of the Peak of Fifth Level Martial Pulse, while his defensive ability was relatively weaker.

However, now his defensive power seems to be even stronger than his attack strength.

As long as he stabilizes the Nine Rotations Golden Body Technique at the Fifth Rotation, achieving imperviousness to sword and spear should be quite easy.

Of course, speculation is just speculation; the result can only be known after actual combat.

But he does not have that time right now. It was not easy to come to this place, nor was it easy to acquire this Cold-Pond Golden Fluid.

He does not want to leave so quickly.

At the very least, he wants to raise his cultivation level to the Martial Pulse Fifth Level and stabilize the Nine Rotations Golden Body Technique at the Fifth Rotation before it’s too late to leave.

With this thought in mind, he hesitated no longer and continued to cultivate the Snow Lotus Qi Technique and the Nine Rotations Golden Body Technique.

He cultivated from day to night, and then from night back to daylight.

The Snow Lotus Qi Technique smoothly advanced to the Fifth Layer, and the Gang Qi within his body kept increasing; however, it never reached the brink of a breakthrough.

This was enough to show that the capacity to store Gang Qi in his body was much larger than others.

His current Gang Qi capacity had even reached the level of a Martial Vein Sixth Peak martial artist.

Of course, it was only a matter of quantity.

But having a larger quantity has its advantages as well.

In many battles, victory and defeat are not so easily and quickly decided. The key to determining the outcome may be who has more Gang Qi.

Even the best pills are not as effective as the Gang Qi naturally present in the body.

Another half an hour passed, and Ling Xiao felt that the Gang Qi inside his body had reached its saturation point; it seemed that he could ascend.

In this state, he could easily advance to Martial Pulse Fifth Level without the assistance of any pills.

However, for safety’s sake, he picked a Snow Lotus that was around five hundred years old and ate it directly.

Once the Snow Lotus entered his body, the cold energy spread rapidly to all his internal organs.

Then it quickly transformed into strands of life essence.

With these strands of life essence protecting his heart channels, even if the breakthrough failed or he deviated in his cultivation, he wouldn’t end up dead or insane.

For any martial artist, a breakthrough is an extremely dangerous affair. Without Heart-protecting Pills and Vessel-protecting Pills, one must rely on other items to protect the heart channels.

And the Snow Lotus is one of those items.

It thrives in the extremely cold places, yet its life blooms so brilliantly; this shows how tenaciously strong its vitality is.

The protective effect of this thing is much stronger than that of Heart-protecting Pills and Vessel-protecting Pills.

Without giving it further thought, after eating the Snow Lotus, Ling Xiao immediately began running the Snow Lotus Qi Technique in preparation for the breakthrough.

Another day passed.

Night.

Many wild beasts in the Fulong Mountain Range began to stir.

A huge Great Strength Divine Ape sat outside an ancient dragon-shaped building, with a Sixth Level Demonic Beast that it had just killed beside it.

That was its dinner.

It stared intently at the building, infuriated that the damned little human had not yet come out.

It could clearly sense that person’s aura, yet it was unable to enter.

Boom!

Suddenly, a terrifying boom came from within the building.

The Great Strength Divine Ape stood up abruptly, howling with annoyance.

Its intelligence was not inferior to humans, so it understood that the human inside had actually made a breakthrough!

Although still no match for it, the ape understood that there must be some good stuff inside that dragon-shaped building.

Its eyes turned blood-red, and it suddenly threw a punch at it.

However, just like many times before, it was futile.
