Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 647: Chapter 647: Thousand Kinds of Martial Arts

”Ha.” Xiao Yi sat cross-legged, exclaiming softly.

The power of Heaven and Earth Martial Arts, specifically that of the Ice Sword Dao, continued to flow incessantly.

He remembered that since reaching the peak of the Heavenly Origin Realm, he hadn’t practiced the Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique.

The main reason was that he lacked sufficient Cold Ice Attribute Cultivation Items.

Now, with 120 drops of Black Sea Essence, it was enough.

The cultivation of the Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique was based on Martial Arts Power, with a vast Ice Attribute Power as the source.

The first thing to do was to use the Martial Arts Power to expand the foundation of the Ice Pattern.

The foundation of the Ice Pattern was related to one’s own Martial Arts Power; the capacity of the Ice Pattern, on the other hand, was related to one’s own Qi Spring.

”The peak of Heavenly Origin Realm and the peak of Earth Extreme Second Layer differ by twenty percent in Martial Arts Power.”

”How much can this increase the foundation of the Ice Pattern?” Xiao Yi mused aloud, somewhat excited.

In the world around him, the Martial Arts Power of the Ice Sword Dao continued to flow incessantly.

It didn’t enter his body but rather went directly into the ’Ice Pattern’ on his arm.

Martial Arts Power was like batches of ingredients.

The Ice Pattern was like a ’container’ with unlimited possibilities.

This container, with the addition of Martial Arts Power, continuously expanded and strengthened.

It also became more solid on its own.

Several hours later, Xiao Yi stopped absorbing the Martial Arts Power of Heaven and Earth.

Looking at the saintly Ice Pattern on his arm emitting a Cold Ice Aura, Xiao Yi smiled.

This Ice Pattern, now founded on twenty-nine percent of Martial Arts Power.

Compared to the previous Ice Pattern, the current foundation had expanded about five times.

It was now ’empty,’ desperately needing a vast amount of power to be filled.

Drops of Black Sea Essence were quickly used up.

With just twelve drops used, the Ice Pattern was filled.

The Ice Power contained in the Black Sea Essence was indeed immense.

At this point, the cultivation of the Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique could be considered complete.

Although he still had a lot of Black Sea Essence, the capacity of the Ice Pattern was limited.

In the future, as his realm elevated and his Martial Arts Power increased, the Ice Pattern could continue to be strengthened.

Moreover, this first Ice Pattern only represented the ’Ice Sword Dao.’

In the future, as he studied other top Cold Ice Attribute Martial Arts, he could condense a second, a third, and even more Ice Patterns.

At this moment, Xiao Yi ceased his cultivation.

He realized that he had nothing left to cultivate.

He was out of Cultivation Items for Martial Arts.

For cultivating the Asura Battle Body, he only had a tiny bit of Demon Beast Essence Blood left.

The Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique had also temporarily reached its limit.

”Hm?” Xiao Yi murmured softly.

He thought of Bai Mohan’s Martial Soul.

The Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes, which possessed the ability to absorb Martial Soul Power.

Any power and effect produced by a Martial Soul could be absorbed and eradicated by it.

Like the potent poison previously from Yang Fu’s Poison Dagger Martial Soul.

Such poisons, produced by the effects of the Poison Dagger Martial Soul, were essentially Martial Soul Power, hence could be absorbed or even eradicated.

Of course, if it was an actual potent poison, the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes couldn’t do anything.

Like the Black Sea Poison previously deployed by the Poison Emperor.

That was an actual existing poison, unrelated to any Martial Soul.

Or, like Shangguan Xiyue’s Purple Brilliance Holy Pupil, which produced insight power.

This effect, when faced with the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes, failed directly.

Shangguan Xiyue even suffered backlash.

Another ability of the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes was to absorb others’ Martial Souls to enhance the grade of the Fire Control Beast.

All along; the Martial Souls absorbed by the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes were directly transformed into power, devoured by the Fire Control Beast.

Including the Martial Soul of the Flame Martial King earlier.

But just now, when I absorbed Bai Mohan’s Martial Soul.

Besides the power ”devoured” by the Fire Control Beast, there unexpectedly existed some unknown force.

This force was the very embodiment of the Martial Arts inheritance absorbed by the Martial Arts Ice Crystal.

For ordinary Martial Artists, comprehension of Martial Arts knowledge would become a type of personal insight.

But Bai Mohan was different.

Possessing a Martial Arts Ice Crystal Martial Soul, he didn’t need any comprehension at all.

Any Martial Arts inheritance or knowledge could be absorbed directly through the Martial Arts Ice Crystal.

This made the acquisition of other people’s Martial Arts knowledge a type of insight, whereas his knowledge was a collection of powers within the Martial Arts Ice Crystal.

Having absorbed his Martial Soul, naturally, I also absorbed these various types of power.

”Good heavens,” Xiao Yi counted the numerous Martial Arts inheritances and knowledge—it undoubtedly amounted to thousands, which left him astonished.

The Martial Arts inheritance of the past Sect Masters of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect.

The Martial Arts knowledge of more than half of the elders in the history of the Sect.

The Martial Arts inheritance of the Royal Family of the Flame Martial Kingdom, including the Formation knowledge of the Heavenly Flame Formation Master.

Additionally, there was various Martial Arts knowledge absorbed from Martial Artists slain by Bai Mohan over the years.

The Martial Arts Ice Crystal, needing a substantial amount of Martial Artist Essence and fresh blood to activate, further commanded the slaughter of Martial Artists to acquire the Martial Arts knowledge from them—it was an evil artifact.

Bai Mohan had schemed for years.

Yet, he never expected, all of this would end up in the hands of Xiao Yi.

However, looking at these thousands of types of Martial Arts knowledge, Xiao Yi felt nothing but helplessness.

Among them, there were only a few top-tier Martial Arts.

Most were first-class, second-class, and even third-class Martial Arts, none of which Xiao Yi found appealing.

The only one that caught his eye was the Formation inheritance of the Heavenly Flame Formation Master.

These thousands of types of Martial Arts knowledge, once mastered, could similarly absorb the power of Heaven and Earth Martial Arts.

However, Martial Arts power could not be accumulated.

Xiao Yi couldn’t be bothered to waste time on such futile efforts.

He already possessed three major Sword Daos and four powerful Flame Martial Ways.

Among these thousands of Martial Arts knowledge, some second and third-class Martial Arts knowledge seemed rather interesting, no, perhaps it’s better to say, they had some practical utility.

For instance, one of the Martial Arts called ’Stove Fire Martial Way.’

It was considered to be quite commendable among the second-class Martial Arts.

Originally belonging to a renowned Fire Attribute Martial Artist from the Meteor County of the Flame Martial Kingdom.

This Martial Artist was also a quite impressive Alchemist.

He was famous for creating many lethal Fire Attribute Subspirit Artifacts and puppets, among others.

Later, because he refused to submit to Bai Mohan, he was brutally killed.

Another called ’Water Avoidance Martial Art.’

This Martial Art was similar in level to the ’Stove Fire Martial Way.’

However, its offensive capability was weak, focusing instead on the concept of ’avoidance.’

In the face of towering waves and turbulent seas, one would remain unmoved like a mountain.

Even the weakest currents would be automatically ’avoided’ by the body, unaffected by any.

Blizzards filled the sky, wildly unpredictable, yet not a single flake would touch the person.

Even the densest of blizzards would be automatically ’avoided’ by the body, unable to touch even slightly.

Water Avoidance Martial Art not only avoided water but could avoid various types of energy attributes as well.

In fact, whether it’s crafting Subspirit Artifacts or employing techniques such as Water Avoidance, generally, highly-skilled Martial Artists could obtain these techniques through their Small World.

However, possessing the techniques and specifically ’refining’ them were two different matters.

Stove Fire Martial Way, Water Avoidance Martial Art, these were two types of ’refinement.’

Xiao Yi smiled faintly, trying to cultivate these two Martial Arts.
