Chapter 523: Chapter 497: Breaking the Shackles

BUZZ! BUZZ!

Within his Consciousness Space, a Cultivation Technique had manifested in the form of a book.

If Lin Qi wished, he could browse its contents at will.

Right now, however, Lin Qi was using his Spiritual Power as a brush to begin the visualization of the Twelfth-Level Calamity Beast (Demon Beast)—the Golden Emperor Tiger.

His Spiritual Power swiftly sketched out the Golden Emperor Tiger’s form, but its body was simply too immense.

Its entire body was a full ten kilometers long, hundreds of times larger than the Ninth-Level Calamity Beast, the Platinum Evil Tiger.

The difficulty of the visualization was also enormous!

Late into the night, Lin Qi’s eyes snapped open, his mind feeling exceptionally weary.

’I’m halfway done!’

A look of delight crossed Lin Qi’s face. Although the visualization was incredibly difficult, his speed was much faster than before.

He was certain he could successfully complete the visualization in just two or three days.

The twenty-five consecutive days he had spent observing the Golden Emperor Tiger provided a boost, greatly accelerating his progress.

’I’ll push through in one go and successfully visualize the Golden Emperor Tiger!’

He glanced around. The clock on the wall showed it was already 11 p.m., and most people had already left.

He took a bottle of Soul Water from the pocket of his robe and drank it in one gulp.

He closed his eyes again and resumed his Cultivation.

The time soon reached midnight. A man stood up and looked at the cross-legged Lin Qi. It was Ivan Petrov from the Bear Country.

’Lin Qi from Xia Country, he still hasn’t left this late?’

Ivan was puzzled and also felt the pressure emanating from him.

A genius with more Talent than him was also working harder than him. It was truly enough to make one despair.

Fortunately, he felt he was on the verge of comprehending a High-Level Source Energy Technique.

His Spirit was exhausted now, but he was confident he could succeed in his Cultivation tomorrow.

Thinking this, he turned and left.

...

「The next day, at 5 a.m.」

Having had a night’s sleep, Ivan arrived early at the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar, his fatigue completely gone.

He clenched his fists, planning to complete his Cultivation today.

It had only taken him a little over three months to successfully comprehend a High-Level Source Energy Technique.

He jumped down the steps, only to see a familiar figure sitting cross-legged with his hands in the Five Hearts Facing Heaven Technique pose.

’Lin Qi from Xia Country, why is he here so early?’

Ivan stared at Lin Qi’s back. Everything looked exactly the same as when he had left last night.

A thought suddenly surfaced in his mind.

’Could it be that he didn’t go back all night?’

Ivan sucked in a sharp breath, sensing Lin Qi’s desperate attitude toward Cultivation.

He immediately found his own spot, sat down cross-legged, and began observing the carvings.

In a moment, he was completely immersed.

As time passed, more and more geniuses entered the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar.

For most of them, today was just an Ordinary day.

Lin Qi sat cross-legged, oblivious to the passage of Time.

In his Consciousness Space, nourished by the Soul Water, his Spiritual Power was rapidly recovering.

This allowed him to continue his visualization of the Golden Emperor Tiger.

Thanks to his Spiritual Power, which was as high as 5,000, he had already sketched out the massive frame of the Golden Emperor Tiger.

Back then, when he was pulled into that strange Space, he had observed every detail of the Golden Emperor Tiger’s body in its entirety.

Especially with his [Golden Eyes], he had encountered very few errors along the way.

He sketched out the Golden Emperor Tiger’s form with silky smoothness.

If sketching the Ninth-Level Calamity Beast, the Platinum Evil Tiger, required 350,000 strokes, then sketching the Golden Emperor Tiger now required 350 million strokes.

The scale of the project was abnormally large, and Lin Qi had no idea how long he had been visualizing.

But he was getting closer and closer to success.

...

「In a corner of the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar.」

The tall and sturdy Ivan, with his high-bridged nose, was sitting cross-legged. Suddenly, his eyes snapped shut.

He began to emit intense Spiritual Power, and the Energy fluctuations from his aura grew stronger and stronger.

A moment later, Ivan opened his eyes, a look of ecstasy in them.

’Success!’

’I’ve successfully comprehended it!’

He suppressed his excitement. For others, just comprehending a Cultivation Technique was already a success.

But for him, this was only the beginning. He needed to visualize an Eleventh-Level Calamity Beast—no, it should be called a Demon Beast.

He had learned the name of the Calamity/Demon Beast he was to visualize from the Cultivation Method, as well as the existence of the Demon Race.

However, the shock of this information was nothing compared to the thrill of his current success.

The Cultivation Method was the most important thing. He glanced at Shen Heng in the distance, then closed his eyes and began his visualization.

’It took me three months to comprehend it. With my Talent, one week should be enough to complete the visualization.’

...

In Lin Qi’s Consciousness Space, his visualization had reached the final step.

His entire body began to boil in anticipation of his imminent success.

Within the Void, a majestic and enormous golden tiger gradually took shape. Its basic frame was complete, and the fine details of its fur were being perfected through his Cultivation.

A Golden Emperor Tiger was materializing.

When the 350 millionth stroke was laid down, the entire Golden Emperor Tiger instantly came to life.

ROAR!!

A tiger’s roar echoed through his Consciousness Space, making the Space tremble as the majestic body began to move.

BOOM!

Joy bloomed in Lin Qi’s heart. ’The visualization is complete!’

His previous visualization of the Platinum Evil Tiger hadn’t gone this smoothly.

Successfully visualizing it was only the first step. Next was breaking the body’s second shackle.

It was written in the Golden Emperor’s Secret Manual that the Demon Race was Innate-ly able to absorb Source Energy.

They didn’t need to cultivate; their bodies could naturally absorb the Source Energy from the air.

Whether eating, sleeping, or fighting, their bodies were absorbing Source Energy at every moment.

By opening the second shackle of the body, Martial Artists could also achieve this.

They would be able to absorb Source Energy just by breathing, their bodies transforming every moment, and the speed at which they grew stronger would increase even further.

THUMP! THUMP!

WHOOSH!!

Lin Qi could feel his entire body beginning to boil. The moment the Golden Emperor Tiger was visualized in his Consciousness Space...

...his aura changed. His bloodline boiled, and the genes deep within his body began to transform.

BOOM!!

WHOOSH!!

Inside the black building, the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar suddenly emitted intense Energy fluctuations.

ROAR!!

Everyone observing was jolted awake, their faces filled with confusion. The roar of a tiger had echoed in all their ears.

”What’s going on?”

Countless people looked around in confusion. At the top of the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar, a domineering tiger head erupted with Golden Light.

And on the steps, a person was also erupting with intense Energy fluctuations. Golden Light flared, seemingly echoing the tiger’s roars.

Countless people wore expressions of bewilderment.

But then, someone spoke up:

”Someone has successfully cultivated a Top-level Technique from a Twelfth-Level Calamity Beast, causing the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar to show a phenomenon.”

”At the top of the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar are the six strongest Twelfth-Level Calamity Beasts.”

”It’s said that whenever someone comprehends one of their Cultivation Techniques, the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar will produce a powerful phenomenon.”

”The current first-ranked Sunx Saint, second-ranked Li Tianxing, Augustine from the White Eagle Federation, and Andre from the Bear Country have all caused such phenomena.”

Hearing this person’s explanation, the crowd looked on in astonishment.

”Someone comprehended a Top-level Technique? Who is it?”

”It’s Lin Qi from Xia Country!” someone called out.

In the distance, Shen Heng, Ivan, and a newly arrived Jenos and Niting all turned to look at the cross-legged Lin Qi.
