Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 169: Chapter 169 Shadow Cultivation Secret Method_1

Breaking through to the Martial Master Realm in seven days?

General Jiu Yue thought he must have heard wrong.

How could one break through to the Martial Master Realm so easily? Many talents in the Hidden Dragon Camp reached the Martial Vein Sixth Peak and stayed there for one to two, even three to four years.

None of them dared to claim they could break through whenever they wished.

Even Murong Shao, whom he favored the most, had been at the Martial Meridian Sixth Layer Peak for over a year. Ling Xiao had only just broken through to the Martial Vein Sixth Peak a few days ago. How could he be so confident?

”Ling Xiao, in the pursuit of Martial Arts, it’s better to be steady.”

Because of Lin Ze’s relationship with him, General Jiu Yue was quite concerned about Ling Xiao; he didn’t want Ling Xiao to become someone who overestimated himself.

Ling Xiao just smiled and didn’t explain anything.

He had the Mountain and River Martial Soul, so he was very clear about his own situation.

After three days of battle, his power had accumulated to a certain degree, the breakthrough was just a matter of course, with no surprises.

”General Jiu Yue, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be heading back first, okay?”

He stood up, ready to leave.

Time was of the essence and he couldn’t delay.

”Oh, right, you now have 120 Military Achievement Points, you can go to the Merit Hall to exchange them for rewards first.”

General Jiu Yue reminded him.

”Thank you for the reminder, General. Ling Xiao understands.”

By the time Ling Xiao headed to the Merit Hall, many talents from the Hidden Dragon Camp had already gone to exchange their rewards.

Either Martial Arts.

Or Divine Weapons.

Or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Or some other rewards.

In short, the more Military Achievement Points one had, the more options and the more rewards one could exchange for.

Ling Yixue exchanged for Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that could accelerate her cultivation.

Her current situation was desperate, with limited time she had to advance to the Transcendent Realm as soon as possible to prolong her life.

Her pursuit of Martial Arts was not as intense. Moreover, she had just received top-tier Martial Arts like the Soul-snatching Palm from Ling Xiao, and with the Martial Arts in her memory, she already had enough.

Yin Ran exchanged for medicinal materials that assisted in cultivation as well.

Murong Shao did the same because he was currently focused on breaking through to the Martial Vein Seventh Layer. Worried that his True Essence Pills wouldn’t be enough, he also took some auxiliary medicinal materials.

”Ling Xiao, just you wait. After I come out of seclusion this time, I’ll definitely have a good exchange with you.”

After receiving his rewards, Murong Shao saw Ling Xiao heading towards the Merit Hall and couldn’t help sneering before quickly walking towards his own room.

Ling Xiao didn’t pay him any attention.

Although he really wanted to kill Murong Shao right now, this was the Hidden Dragon Camp, and it was not a good place to start a fight.

On his way to the Merit Hall, he encountered Shi Lei and Hua Nongying.

Both of them had exchanged for top-tier Martial Arts.

Since their strength wouldn’t likely improve significantly in a short period of time, choosing top-tier Martial Arts was more suitable.

Hua Nongying just gave Ling Xiao a smile and a nod before leaving first.

Shi Lei, on the other hand, clasped his fists and said, ”Brother Ling, if you encounter any troubles within the Hidden Dragon Camp, just let me know. I assure you, you’ll be fine.”

”Thanks, Brother Shi.”

Ling Xiao had a very good impression of Shi Lei.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two went on their separate ways.

While Shi Lei went back to study Martial Arts, Ling Xiao went to the Merit Hall to receive a semi-Transcendent Martial Arts book and some Spiritual Medicine.

After all, a semi-Transcendent Martial Arts book cost 100 Military Achievement Points, so he didn’t have many points left for anything else.

The semi-Transcendent Martial Arts book he chose to complement his Heavy Shadow Sword Technique was called the Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique.

It was a kind of Martial Skills method that had no offensive or defensive capabilities, nor could it enhance Gang Qi or True Essence.

But it allowed the Martial Soul Avatar to assist in cultivation!

In the event of using ”Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique,” both the Martial Soul Avatar and shadow avatars could cultivate just like the original body.

When these avatars returned to the original body, their cultivation experiences would be absorbed by it.

Naturally, this required substantial Soul Power to sustain; if Soul Power was exhausted, the technique could no longer be used.

Luckily, Ling Xiao had already cultivated the ”Soul Condensation Art” back when he was at the Ling Family, so his Soul Power was much higher than that of an average warrior. Additionally, due to his Mountain and River Martial Soul, his innate soul was exceptionally strong.

Therefore, in the entire Hidden Dragon Camp, aside from him, truly no one else could use this ”Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique.”

...

After returning to his room from Merit Hall, Ling Xiao gave all the medicinal ingredients he had been awarded to Leng Mei.

With Gang Qi Pills and Low-grade Spirit Stones, and adding the Golden Snow Lotus, those things he really didn’t care for.

Furthermore, he also gave Leng Mei a book of top-notch martial arts, the ”Shadow Killing Technique.”

This was an advanced combat skill acquired from the proprietor of the Green-eyed Clan, which would work extremely well in conjunction with Leng Mei’s Snow Plum Fragmented Soul.

The reason for giving these items to Leng Mei was, of course, partly to win her over.

On the other hand, Leng Mei was also one of his teammates this time, yet she received no Military Achievement Points as a reward, which was actually quite unfair to this girl.

”Thank you, Captain!”

Leng Mei’s hands trembled as she accepted the book of top-notch martial arts.

As a servant, let alone top-notch martial arts, she had very little opportunity to even come into contact with advanced martial arts.

”Enough, go cultivate now, just stay in this room, and from now on, you don’t need to call me Captain. Just calling me Brother Ling will do,” Ling Xiao said, waving his hand indifferently.

”How can that be? Since Captain doesn’t like this title, I will call you Young Master from now on,” Leng Mei hastily said.

”Whatever, suit yourself.”

Ling Xiao closed his eyes and began to cultivate.

Taking a deep breath and controlling her excited heart, Leng Mei also sat down cross-legged, swallowed the spiritual medicine, and started to comprehend the ”Shadow Killing Technique.”

Meanwhile, other talented disciples of Hidden Dragon Camp were also cultivating.

They all received more or less military achievements, and with these points, they exchanged for many rewards; this was the perfect time to practice.

These talented individuals, already blessed with good innate abilities, coupled with the effects of the spiritual medicine, quickly saw members among them advancing in cultivation.

Some went from the fifth to the sixth level of Martial Vein.

Some advanced from the early sixth level to a higher realm.

There were also those whose cultivation didn’t breakthrough, but their martial arts did.

Time passed slowly.

More and more Hidden Dragon Camp disciples achieved breakthroughs, and during these few days, excited cheers from the disciples were heard nearly every day.

Three days later, Leng Mei opened her eyes, excitedly looking at her hands.

She had broken through!

In just three days, she had gone from the early sixth level of Martial Vein straight to the pinnacle of the sixth peak.

Not only that, she had also mostly comprehended the ”Shadow Killing Technique.”

This shocked her.

Although she had talent, it was definitely not at such a rapid pace.

She felt the special aura in the air and realized.

It wasn’t her doing, but because of Ling Xiao.

The aura emanating from Ling Xiao contained a peculiar martial law, it was this martial law that not only made her cultivation increase faster, but also allowed for her quicker understanding of the martial arts.

She turned her head towards Ling Xiao and noticed that the originallly single Ling Xiao had somehow become five.

And each one was sitting, cultivating within their respective elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

”The Young Master truly is extraordinary, following him is without a doubt the right choice!”

Leng Mei only looked for a moment before she left the room.

The ”Shadow Killing Technique” belonged to martial skills, and just sitting there to practice was no longer sufficient for improvement, so she decided to go out and protect Ling Xiao while he cultivated.
