Chapter 599: Chapter 239: Annihilation Tribulation Light 2

The Innate Qi, which was unique to this region spanning thousands of miles, was noticed and subsequently absorbed when Xu Ran opened the Celestial Acupoint.

It was known that Innate Qi originally resided in newborns, and only those with special means, like Xu Ran, could preserve it. Otherwise, humans had almost no way to obtain Innate Qi.

”I can see the Innate Qi, probably because I’ve opened the Celestial Acupoint, allowing me a glimpse of the world’s origins.”

”Meanwhile, according to the Celestial Acupoint Technique, opening the Celestial Acupoint can condense Divine Techniques, but where do these Divine Techniques come from?” Xu Ran wondered.

He was still unaware of what the Divine Techniques in this world looked like, so he was very curious.

At this moment, an unusual sensation came from Xu Ran’s forehead, as if the entire spiritual world had been plunged into an icy cave, frozen, as if under a cold watch, making him shiver.

But soon, this feeling disappeared.

”What is going on? After the Celestial Acupoint was opened, why is there such a cold feeling, as if something was eyeing me, treating me as prey.”

Just after he spoke, a voice echoed in his mind.

[Under your guidance, you successfully killed the group of Poisonous Snakes, but you have also been targeted by the Snake King in the Great Mountain. Fortunately, the Snake King is currently asleep; its awakening will spell disaster for you.]

Upon hearing this news, Xu Ran was a bit stunned, ”Is there really such a thing?!”

Now he understood where the chilling sensation from deep within his soul came from.

”I must admit, after opening the Celestial Acupoint and learning the Celestial Acupoint Technique, it’s truly remarkable, even able to foresee danger!!”

Having just ended the Poisonous Snakes invasion event, another threat from the Snake King arises; one must say, my fate truly is fraught with misfortune.

Xu Ran shook his head, dismissing the extraneous thoughts in his mind, ”The Snake King inside the Great Mountain? What might its cultivation level be?”

It must be much stronger than the Qi Refining Stage, and significantly so.

The lead of the Poisonous Snakes invasion, a dark red Exotic Snake Demon, was at the Qi Refining Stage in cultivation; as their leader, the Snake King must be even stronger, though its exact strength is unknown.

Regarding strength, it’s not a major concern; the crucial point is, since it’s called a Snake King, it must have several subordinates on par with the Exotic Snake Demon, right?

If the Snake King were to lead such a force to ravage the village again, with several Qi Refining Stage Snake Demons plus an unknown cultivation level Snake King, could the Great Wilderness Border Village withstand it?

”Fortunately, the Snake King’s attention is solely on me, and a year from now, it should only be a disaster for me, likely unrelated to the village people.”

Understanding this, Xu Ran breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes gleaming with a sharp, icy light.

”If the threat is aimed solely at me, then the Snake King has miscalculated; a year from now, don’t even consider it—under the nourishment of Innate Qi, even Xiao Bai might surpass it.”

Xu Ran had great confidence in his Innate Divine Body and the Innate Qi within; Xiao Bai, his Spirit Pet nurtured with Innate Qi from the egg, was exceedingly mystical, not at all inferior to the Snake King.

”Moreover, I just opened the Celestial Acupoint and learned the Celestial Acupoint Technique; after mastering Divine Techniques, facing the Snake King’s threat in a year will be a breeze!!”

Just after speaking, a voice echoed in his mind again.

[Congratulations on opening the Celestial Acupoint; now restoring the Divine Technique---Annihilation Tribulation Light!!]

Xu Ran’s eyes widened immediately, as a warm current flowed across the newly opened celestial dome, his spirit

was surprised! What does it mean to be surprised!!

His [Annihilation Tribulation Light] had returned.

Back when on Blue Star, he relied on [Annihilation Tribulation Light] to continually defeat the Exotic Stars, forcing them to even consider abandoning three Exotic Star planets, which shows how effective it was.

Now that he had regained this Divine Skill, he’s even less worried about facing the Snake King in a year.

Just that, previously on Blue Star, the power of the [Annihilation Tribulation Light] was enhanced through Talismans; in this world, who knows if there are Talismans.

Even if there were, it’s unknown if they could be integrated.

Closing his eyes again, he focused his consciousness into the Sea of Spirit, seeing that the hole chiseled by Innate Qi had turned into a mysterious vortex, surrounded by hundreds of strands of Innate Qi nourishing it.

Xu Ran observed the mysterious runes carefully, finding them somewhat familiar, recalling with delight, ”These runes, aren’t they the ones used for condensing [Annihilation Tribulation Light] on Blue Star?”

”It seems that future [Annihilation Tribulation Light] will be emitted from the Celestial Acupoint, and if that’s the case, stacking Talismans won’t work to enhance its power.”

In that case, what methods can enhance its power?

Xu Ran pondered.

”Since [Annihilation Tribulation Light] is emitted from the Celestial Acupoint, and the Celestial Acupoint was opened through Innate Qi, then...”

Xu Ran’s eyes lit up, suddenly having an idea.

”Since everything is related to Innate Qi, injecting Innate Qi into [Annihilation Tribulation Light], would that enhance its power?”

Having the idea, his first impulse was to experiment with it.

Xu Ran stood up, turned his head, and called towards the room, ”Mom, I’m heading out.”

Lian Ji replied, ”Alright, be safe.”

After refining the Seven-leafed One-flowered Plant, Xu Ran often went out alone, and because of this, the entire Great Wilderness Border Village people didn’t question seeing him alone in the village.

They were already at ease; during the Poisonous Snakes invasion, the formidable strength of Xu Binghu and Xu Ran had won over the villagers, even if they wanted to do something to Xu Ran, they’d have to weigh their own strength first.

Lian Ji’s comment to be safe was merely a reflex.

Xu Ran walked the village paths alone, very quietly, apart from the wind and some poultry noises, there were almost no human sounds, just the occasional cry of a baby.

Now every person in the Great Wilderness Border Village had undergone their first body refining, taking their children to train in the Great Mountain.

Anyway, it’s only in the outer areas for training, with no danger present.

Thus, there were hardly any villagers visible, even the retired hunter, Old Qi, had taken his youthful gear to hunt in the mountains in recent days.

Xu Ran walked all the way, arriving at the clearing where previously Xu Binghu lifted a 500-jin boulder in front of the villagers.

Originally, this clearing had only two impressions left by the boulders, but now, several more have appeared.

The first body refining allowed hunters with near 400-jin of strength to break through the shackle, reaching 500 jin, all coming to lift the boulders, showcasing their power.

Xu Ran came here not to lift rocks.

He looked at the boulder, remarked calmly, ”Now everyone in the village has almost undergone body refining, and the second body refining poses no problem; reaching strength to break a thousand jin is only a matter of time.”

”Since that’s the case, this 500-jin boulder is useless, perfect for me to test the power of [Annihilation Tribulation Light].”

Then, Xu Ran closed his eyes, focusing all his attention on the Celestial Acupoint of his brow, though the Innate Qi within did not start to flow.

After getting ready, Xu Ran opened his eyes, a faint gold radiating, granting him a divine aura, and all the Spiritual Qi began gathering towards the Celestial Acupoint, where mysterious runes appeared on his forehead, and his aura rose steadily.

The next moment,

”Whizz---”, a sound of breaking through the air echoed.

A pale golden laser emitted from Xu Ran’s forehead, with a fierce Spiritual Qi aura clearly perceivable on it.

This, was the [Annihilation Tribulation Light] in the Origin Realm.

As the Tribulation Light hit the stone,

With a ”boom”, the 500-jin boulder was blasted tens of meters away, finally halting against a tens-of-meters high giant tree.

Xu Ran hurried forward to inspect the boulder closely.

He saw a black spot at the boulder’s center, indicating where the high temperature had burned.

While on the giant tree struck by the boulder, a long crack ran from the base through the trunk, with all the once-lush branches and leaves now shaken off.

Imagine the tremendous power of the [Annihilation Tribulation Light]!

”This [Annihilation Tribulation Light] remains as formidable as ever! Truly deserving to be a Divine Technique requiring the opening of the Celestial Acupoint to learn!!”
