Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 532: Chapter 532: Opening the Treasure Chest_1

Ling Xiao had also checked, and the use of ”Soul Dice” had no side effects whatsoever.

If he really had to mention one, it would be that his head would definitely continue to hurt for a day or two, which was quite torturous.

”Senior Brother Ling!”

”Ling Xiao!”

”I’m fine, you two hurry up and skin that giant python’s corpse. This fellow’s whole body is a treasure, it was about to Transform into Jiao. Including its skin and bones, those are excellent materials that can be traded for quite a few nice things when we get out.”

Ling Xiao reminded them.

Upon hearing this, Leng Hao and Dai Yuling went over to dissect the corpse.

After they finished dissecting the corpse, Dai Yuling only kept some materials that could be used to make powder for pills.

Leng Hao kept a bone spur, planning to have someone help him refine it into a weapon.

The rest of the materials were all given back to Ling Xiao.

They were very clear; Ling Xiao was the one who killed the entire giant python, so naturally, he had the right to these items.

Ling Xiao did not refuse.

Feeling almost recovered, the three of them continued forward and directly opened the treasure box.

Inside the treasure box was still a metal card, only this time, the drawing on it was no longer the ”Dream Illusion Girl” but had become the ”Ten Thousand Poisonous Python.”

Apart from the Sealed Card, there were also two books. One was the ”Poison Scripture,” which Ling Xiao gave to Dai Yuling.

One was a Gold-superior Level Martial Arts, which Ling Xiao gave to Leng Hao, but Leng Hao also gave him ten thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones as compensation.

Ling Xiao himself took the Sealed Card.

Honestly, Ling Xiao did not fancy the ”Poison Scripture” and Gold-superior Level Martial Arts at all, but they were good for winning people’s hearts.

Not to mention, he also got ten thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones, which was a nice gain.

...

”Goodness, this is too terrifying, who could have wiped out all these poisonous snakes!”

The one who appeared near the main passage was Shangguan Lei.

He looked somewhat embarrassed at this moment, his body covered in numerous injuries and poisoned.

The passage that Bai Feifei chose was even more troublesome than the one Ling Xiao took because at the end of that passage was a Sinful Beast, equivalent to a warrior of the Heavenly Man Realm.

No one was a match for that Sinful Beast.

So the team scattered and fled.

Fortunately, the Sinful Beast only guarded its treasure box and did not give chase; otherwise, that team would have been utterly annihilated.

Even so, under the Sinful Beast, there were two subordinates who were Level 9 Fierce Beasts.

They completely scattered their team.

Bai Feifei did not want to protect anyone; she directly fled.

Tantai Lingzi took Liu Lie and Situ Jun away.

Wu Yang and Qin Wu had impressive strength and also had the chance to escape.

It was Shangguan Lei and Wang Nan who had it tough.

Thankfully there were only two Level 9 Fierce Beasts, and they chased in the direction where there were more people, while the two of them, who were on their own, fled for their lives.

Wang Nan’s situation was unclear, but Shangguan Lei managed to escape to the vicinity of the side passage where Ling Xiao was located, witnessing the poisonous snakes killed by Ling Xiao’s Air Sword, as well as some that were focused solely on escaping, completely ignoring to attack him.

”Could it be him?”

After thinking it over, Shangguan Lei felt that among the participants of the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony, the only one capable of causing such a shocking outcome was probably none other than Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao’s cultivation level was not high, but his methods were endless. No one could know what he might do next.

”Shangguan Lei!”

Ling Xiao’s voice resonated from the side.

Shangguan Lei instantly felt revitalized.

”Save me!”

He only managed to get out those two words before he passed out.

”Yuling, detoxify him.”

Ling Xiao said to Dai Yuling.

”Really? This Shangguan Lei is a follower of Demonflame Celestial. Do you really want to save him?”

”Saving a life is more virtuous than creating a seven-tiered pagoda; why wouldn’t I save him?”

Ling Xiao said with a smile.

He didn’t explain too much, and Dai Yuling didn’t ask too much.

With the intelligence of Dai Yuling and Leng Hao, they naturally understood the reasons, but they just did not specify them, and they would naturally keep Ling Xiao’s secret as well.

”Thank you, Junior Brother Ling, thank you, Sister Yuling!”

About seven or eight minutes later, Shangguan Lei recovered from unconsciousness. Ling Xiao casually threw him a few pills and then handed him a snake gallbladder.

”Eat it, then recover here!”

Shangguan Lei nodded without asking too much, took the items, and began to focus on cultivating and recovering.

He was already a martial artist at the late stage of Transcendent Realm Fourth Layer. After a series of battles, his True Essence was almost exhausted, so the effect of absorbing the snake gallbladder was very good; in a short time, the gallbladder was completely absorbed.

”I will assist you with a helping hand!”

Ling Xiao pointed at the center of Shangguan Lei’s Martial Veins, injecting his own True Essence to guide him through a breakthrough.

Transcendent Realm Four-level Pinnacle!

Transcendent Realm Fifth Layer Early Stage!

Transcendent Realm Fifth Layer Intermediate Stage!

Transcendent Realm Fifth Layer Late Stage!

Shangguan Lei had a substantial amount of energy stored inside his body, so once he made a breakthrough, it was unstoppable. He was promoted directly from the late stage of Transcendent Realm Fourth Layer to the late stage of Transcendent Realm Fifth Layer, nearing the pinnacle.

Regarding this action from Ling Xiao, Shangguan Lei did not say much. He felt it was normal because he could entrust his life to Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao was his master!

Uttering redundant words of thanks was meaningless; it was better to prove his loyalty with concrete actions.

”Shangguan Lei, would you refuse if I made you withdraw from the competition now?”

Ling Xiao asked.

”Of course not!”

Shangguan Lei shook his head.

”Good, get ready. I might eliminate you at any moment because if you follow me for too long, some people will become suspicious, and that would be troublesome. However, you can rest assured that before I kill you, you will receive enough benefits.”

Ling Xiao treated Shangguan Lei differently from Dai Yuling and Leng Hao, of course.

However, as long as Shangguan Lei remained loyal to him, Ling Xiao would not be stingy.

”Understood!”

Shangguan Lei nodded, evidently having no objections to Ling Xiao’s arrangement.

In fact, even without any benefits following this, he would not mind at all because the boost in his cultivation level to the late stage of Transcendent Realm Fifth Layer this time was enough to surprise him greatly.

This was a tangible gain.

”You three help me guard, I also want to attempt a breakthrough!”

Ling Xiao had obtained the Inner Elixir of the Ten Thousand Poisonous Python, which was much more useful than the snake gallbladder from the little golden snakes.

”No problem!”

Leng Hao, Shangguan Lei, and Dai Yuling had Ling Xiao to protect them during their breakthroughs. Now that Ling Xiao was about to break through, they naturally had no objections.

Ling Xiao felt that Demonflame Celestial’s puppet avatar was still healing, so he definitely had the opportunity to break through.

Inside the Moon Blossom Pagoda, breaking through seemed much easier than outside, so it was definitely advantageous to use good items here.

After swallowing an Inner Elixir, he hurriedly circulated the Twelve Golden Lotus Art.

This top-tier Internal Cultivation Mind Technique had a very good auxiliary effect on absorbing the Inner Elixir of the Ten Thousand Poisonous Python.

Furthermore, following the fight with the Ten Thousand Poisonous Python, he had fully consolidated his cultivation level at the intermediate stage of Transcendent Realm Sixth Layer, so now was the perfect time for a breakthrough.
