The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 252: Chapter 252: Terrifying Speed Chapter 252: Chapter 252: Terrifying Speed Looking at the jade bottle in her hand, Jing Ziqi felt an uncontrollable excitement in her heart.

In Donglin City, she was the daughter of the Jing Family Patriarch, holding a respected status.

However, in Lanqu County City, at Red Lotus Academy, her background was nothing to brag about.

As for resources, at her current realm, the family could provide her very little.

It wasn’t that the quantity was low, but rather that, having stepped into the Innate Realm, even if the Jing Family could provide her with tens of thousands of spirit stones for cultivation each year, it was still just a drop in the bucket.

Ten thousand spirit stones, what could that buy?

Merely a third-grade Guiyuan Pill.

The longer Jing Ziqi stayed at Red Lotus Academy, the clearer she understood the preciousness of resources.

Her talent was indeed not bad, but within the three major academies of Lanqu County City, there were plenty who surpassed her in talent.

Red Lotus Academy was unlikely to give her any special treatment.

To obtain more resources, she could only rely on her own efforts and slowly accumulate them.

It was precisely because she knew how precious resources were that Jing Ziqi found it hard to stay calm at this moment.

“Ziqi, don’t refuse these elixirs; they are nothing to me, just take them!” Jing Yan said to Jing Ziqi with a smile.

“Mhm.” Jing Ziqi eventually took the jade bottle and nodded heavily.

In the room, the three of them chatted for a while.

Jing Ziqi took her leave, and Jing Luoyu returned to her own room to continue cultivating.

Only Jing Yan was left alone.

On Jing Yan’s face, a trace of excitement emerged.

Then, he took out the damaged Martial Arts Stele from inside the Sumeru Ring.

It had been more than two days since he had obtained this fragmented Martial Arts Stele, and he had wanted to see if the Sky Wings Martial Art hidden inside was the same as the other parts of Sky Wings that he had imagined.

However, he had not had a good opportunity in these two days.

Now, he finally could take a look.

Jing Yan slightly stimulated his Primordial Energy, which surged out and entered the damaged Martial Arts Stele through his palm that was touching it.

“Boom!”

A profound and weighty Dao Power poured into Jing Yan’s mind like a tide.

Following that, the “Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill” automatically activated.

With the operation of the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill, the part of the Sky Wings Martial Art that Jing Yan had mastered also began to operate.

The Dao Power from the damaged Martial Arts Stele merged seamlessly with the information of the Sky Wings Martial Art that Jing Yan had already mastered.

At this moment, Jing Yan was truly nervous.

He placed great importance on the Sky Wings Martial Art, otherwise, he would not have focused on absorbing the Dao Power from the damaged Martial Arts Stele instead of the one provided by Mu Liantian.

As the information from the Dao Power merged, Jing Yan’s eyes grew brighter.

“Luck!

Truly, it’s luck!”

“Who would have thought, in the market stall area of Lanqu Square Market, I could actually encounter a Sky Wings Martial Art Stele.” Jing Yan, amidst his excitement, thought to himself in amazement.

The Sky Wings Martial Art Stele obtained from the market stall area in Lanqu Square Market was, as Jing Yan had guessed.

The Dao Power contained within it, once absorbed, perfectly matched the Sky Wings he had previously mastered.

It seems that the Sky Wings Martial Art was indeed split into several parts, each hidden within different Martial Arts Steles.

What Jing Yan got from within his family was only one part of Sky Wings.

What he obtained in the market stall area of Lanqu Square Market was another part.

Jing Yan could vaguely sense that the Sky Wings contained within these two Martial Arts Steles were not the entirety of Sky Wings.

According to Tianshui, Sky Wings Martial Art was obviously extremely formidable.

On the continent a ten thousand years ago, a very powerful family was annihilated because of this martial art.

If this martial art were not precious to a certain degree, that great family would not have been destroyed.

“It seems, even though I have found two parts of the Sky Wings Martial Art Steles, the Sky Wings I have obtained are probably just a small part.

If I could obtain the complete Sky Wings Martial Art, then…” Jing Yan’s eyes flickered, and he took a deep breath.

Immediately, he cleared all distractions from his mind.

Now, thinking too much was useless.

Because, even though he could determine that the Sky Wings he now had were only a part, he had no other clues to find the other parts.

To obtain more, he could only depend on fate.

Just like this time, Jing Yan obtaining a Sky Wings Martial Art Stele in the market area of Lanqu Square Market was his own chance.

Of course, another point was that Jing Yan’s current strength was still too weak.

Even if he had clues to find other parts of the Sky Wings Martial Art Steles, with his current strength, he might not be able to obtain them.

Thinking too much was not as practical as enhancing his strength.

Clearing his mind of distractions, Jing Yan took out a top-grade Spirit Stone and began to absorb Primordial Energy.

He was now absorbing Primordial Energy not to raise his realm.

His realm had already reached the limit of the Innate Middle Stage, and unless he broke through the realm shackles, there was no further advancement.

He was absorbing Primordial Energy because the operation of the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill, repairing the Sky Wings Martial Art, required a massive amount of Primordial Energy.

If Jing Yan didn’t use top-grade spiritual stones to restore the exhausted Primordial Energy, he might have depleted all the Primordial Energy in his body without even being able to fully repair the newly absorbed Sky Wings Martial Art.

While absorbing Primordial Energy, he was simultaneously repairing the Sky Wings Martial Art.

Time passed like flowing water.

As time elapsed, the Sky Wings Martial Art continued to be repaired completely.

Of course, the term completely here meant Jing Yan had finished repairing the parts he had obtained.

For parts he had yet to find, even with the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill, it was impossible to conjure them out of thin air.

Several days later!

“Whoosh!”

Jing Yan opened his eyes, a glimmer of a smile appearing in his pupils.

“Swish!” With a mere thought, Jing Yan’s body had already disappeared into the distance.

When his figure reappeared, he was already standing in front of his room’s door.

“What terrifying speed!” Although Jing Yan had been prepared and anticipated it, he was still startled by the speed when he truly activated the upgraded Sky Wings.

Because uttering this without exaggeration, Jing Yan’s speed now was comparable to that of a low-level Dao Spirit realm powerhouse.

This was undoubtedly very frightening and unbelievable.

Even Jing Yan felt that even low-level Dao Spirit realm powerhouses using aerial movement might not surpass his own speed when he pushed the Sky Wings to the full.

This meant, even if facing a relatively weak Dao Spirit realm powerhouse wanting to kill him, although he might not be able to contend with them in terms of combat power, he would still have a chance to escape.

The Sky Wings Martial Art was undoubtedly an invaluable technique for escaping.

“Swish!”

“Swish swish!”

Jing Yan no longer dwelled on it, but kept pushing the Sky Wings, flickering repeatedly within the room.

The sudden surge in speed required some time for Jing Yan to adapt to.

The more familiar he became with the Sky Wings Martial Art, the better he could utilize it.

Two hours later, Jing Yan’s figure finally came to a complete stop.

“Good, really good.”

“My speed now is more than double what it was before.”

“Only…

the consumption of Primordial Energy when driving the Sky Wings with full force is truly terrifying!

If it weren’t for my robust Primordial Energy, having reached the limit of the Innate Middle Stage, I reckon I wouldn’t be able to activate it so freely,” Jing Yan commented, lightly shaking his head.

As he said, if he was still in the Postnatal Realm, even at the limit of his Postnatal Cultivation, activating the current Sky Wings with his Primordial Energy at that time would have been very difficult.

Even now, if without any replenishment, activating the Sky Wings with full force, Jing Yan might only be able to sustain for more than two hours, at most four hours, before the Primordial Energy in his body would be depleted.

However, Jing Yan wasn’t too worried, as with the improvement of his realm, the thickness of his Primordial Energy would also greatly increase, naturally enabling him to handle the Sky Wings movement technique more adeptly.

Jing Yan walked back to his bed and sat down cross-legged again.

With a thought, he checked the top-grade spiritual stones inside the Sumeru Ring and frowned slightly.

“The consumption really is terrifying,” Jing Yan exclaimed.

To repair the Sky Wings Martial Art, the consumption of top-grade spiritual stones amounted to as many as thirty.

That means, in these few days alone, solely repairing the martial art, he consumed more than 100,000 ordinary spiritual stones.

This was indeed a bit horrifying.

“Thank goodness!

Luckily, I am a Pill Master, and I can endlessly refine elixirs to earn resources,” Jing Yan took a breath and nodded.

While repairing the first part of Sky Wings, Jing Yan did not consume too many resources.

But repairing this second part of Sky Wings, the consumption exceeded 100,000 ordinary spiritual stones.

If he were to obtain the third or even fourth part of Sky Wings and wanted to repair them, who knew how many spiritual stones it would consume.

Undoubtedly, it would be an astronomical figure.

Nevertheless, this also reflected from another angle how powerful the Sky Wings were.

Jing Yan felt that even refining ordinary Human-level Martial Arts with the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill wouldn’t likely consume so many Primordial Energy and spiritual stones.

“Alright, let’s check the Martial Arts Stele sent by Chief Mu,” Jing Yan shifted his gaze and took out another Martial Arts Stele from the Sumeru Ring.

Most of Jing Yan’s resources were stored in the Qiankun Ring space.

However, he also kept a considerable amount, which he frequently needed, such as spiritual stones and Guiyuan Pills, in the Sumeru Ring he wore on his hand.

The two newly acquired Martial Arts Steles were also stored in the Sumeru Ring.

Although Sky Wings were good, they were not an attack martial art.

In dealing with enemies of lower realms and weaker strength, Sky Wings could greatly assist Jing Yan’s attacks, accelerating his speed to defeat the enemies.

However, when facing stronger opponents, the auxiliary attack effects of Sky Wings were relatively weak.

Killing enemies, truly relied on one’s own Primordial Energy, Attack Martial Arts, and Attack Secret Methods.
