Shi Lang looked at the blob of blood and sat down on the spot to cultivate. The elders were stunned and did not expect him to be so careless. Elder Long Shan waved his hand, and hundreds of swords condensed from the spirit energy.
All these swords were levitating in the void around Shi Lang. Sect Master Ling could not help but wonder why the Dragon Sword Sect’s grand elder would put up a hundred guardian sword formations around Shi Lang. Thinking about this, he took out a disc from his space ring and mumbled, “Well, let’s see if you can use this opportunity to the maximum.”
Long Shan saw Sect Master Ling tossing the disc toward Shi Lang. The disc reached above Shi Lang’s head and emitted golden light. This light formed a curtain around Shi Lang. Long Shan narrowed his eyes and said, “Xiao Ling, you sure are generous.”
Sect Master Ling smiled faintly and said, “Not as much as you are, Elder.”
Grand Elder Long Shan said, “My hundred guardians still lack before your Time Acceleration Disc. Although it consumes many spirit stones,e is what we all need the most. This time disc will alter the flow of time around him, but how much?”
Sect Master Ling did not comment and just smiled, saying, ” Seven to one. My master used to say time is the biggest gift and curse.”
Long Shan was surprised, but then he nodded and said, “How about we retreat to the sect after the death of this Dragon Snake, the beast tide has almost ended, and the two elders are dealing with the remnants.”
Sect Master Ling’s smile vanished, and he said, “Senior Long Shan, please forgive me for saying this, but your people owe us an explanation. Why was Xiao Lang facing such a threat in the first place? If we had been late by a moment, he could have died, and then Senior Tian Long would have laid waste to all of us in his rage.”
Long Shan took a deep breath. He could not reprimand Sect Master Ling because he was not wrong. Tian Long had the power to make the Dragon Sword Sect suffer greatly. He had to give them an explanation to calm them down. That was not even the most concerning detail about this event. Shi Lang was the benefactor of their sect.
This man had shown them how to allow the countless youngsters to come forward and become the pillars of the Dragon Sword Sect. Long Shan thought about it and said, “I will explain satisfactorily. Do not worry.
…
Shi Lang sat in the lotus position and quickly absorbed the blob of blood floating before him. His speed was slow because the energy in this blood was too much for his body to absorb.
Raksha had told him that this blood would enhance the power of his blood, and the energy inside it would temper his body to another level. Shi Lang knew that it was important for him to rush ahead, but he was injured. He needed to heal his wounds before he could absorb wantonly.
The effect of the energy in the blood was very beneficial to him. It was healing him and improving the quality of his body tempering. The muscles were denser, and the bones were getting clearer. The golden sheen on his bones was getting more evident.
Shi Lang focused completely on the digestion of the energy flowing in his body. He was not messing around with it at all. He took a day to heal and enhance his body before he began fusing it with his bloodline.
The two types of blood were completely different. Fusing them would need a perfect balance of the spirit energy to act as a bridge. Shi Lang would need all his focus to maintain this calm state of mind. Another thing that Raksha had warned him about was the remnant spirit living inside the beast’s bloodBeastce he starts the fusion process, chances are that the consciousness of the beastBeast tries to erode his consciousness. This was not good; if he made a mistake or fell dormant, he would not have the chance to leave the soul sea.
He calmed down and began the fusion process. It was not easy, but gradually he got the gist of it, and the efficiency increased. After an hour, he sensed something different about his body while fusing the blood. The bloodline was rejecting him. He kept his calm and kept on absorbing the blood.
…
In his soul sea, Raksha was levitating when suddenly the skies turned dark. The phantom stood up and mumbled, “Finally here.”
She turned her head to look at Shi Lang’s soul avatar and shook her head as she said, “Fine, kid. I will help you deal with this. You owe me the spine of this dragon snake. I want it to be my sheath.”
Shi Lang did not reply to her. He was not in the condition to do so. However, he heard her words. After a few moments, the phantom of the Dragon Snake began to condense before Raksha. She waited patiently and calmly. The Dragon Snake began to move around and hissed at the lady.
Suddenly, the Dragon Snake rushed toward Shi Lang’s primordial avatar, and Raksha said, “Are you treating me like air?”
The beastBeastied, “You are just an artifact spirit. Do you think you can stop me from getting what I want?”
Raksha sighed and said, “I do not understand how a reptile that got killed in the hands of an Immortal Soldier can mock me.”
The next moment she released her pressure, and the Dragon Snake froze. The vertical slit pupil of the beastBeastnk from fear. It did not expect the sword spirit to have such strong pressure. Raksha said, “If you surrender peacefully, you will have a chance of redemption, or I will disperse your remnant consciousness, and you will die. Either way, you will surrender.”
The Beast yelled, “I am not reconciled. What capital does this human have to subdue me? What capital do you have to look down on me bitch.”
Raksha said, “Ignorant upper world dweller. I will not move my jaw for the sake of a glorified worm.”
The beast blasted and wanted to attack, but a strong sword energy was already upon her. Raksha did not waste any time, she killed, and she killed directly. The lady had no chills.
The beast’s consciousness roared and vanished, along with the hatred it had.
Shi Lang was unaffected by all this, absorbing the blood with great focus. Now that the threat of the remnant consciousness was gone. He could increase the pace, and that was what he did. The terran turned into a black hole. Even Raksha was surprised, let alone the people outside.
…
Long Shan and Sect Master Ling had not returned to the sect. They were watching Shi Lang cultivate, and after the matters of deacons tricked Shi Lang into entering the depth of the mountains was handed over to the punishment hall of the Dragon Sword Sect. They did not think it was wise to leave this place where such a strong spirit beast resided at night.
Long Shan sensed Shi Lang’s aura climb suddenly. He did not understand what was happening before he spotted the blood streams moving toward Shi Lang from all directions. The blob of blood transformed into a ring of blood around him. There were too many things happening to Shi Lang at the same time.
The grand elder gulped and said, “This kid, what sort of monster is he.”
Sect Master Ling replied, “This is what we have been wondering about ever since he came into our sect. He defeated a core disciple with a wooden sword. Took down a demonic cultivator on his own. All this in just a few months, his foundation was something that had me worried for a bit, but now that I see him rushing forward, I do not have any worries.” 𝑜𝓋𝓵xt.𝚌𝑶𝓂
Long Shan nodded, and suddenly the clear night skies were brimming with dark clouds. The two elders frowned but suddenly saw a lightning sword above Shi Lang’s head. They were surprised. To reach the level of the Spirit General Shi Lang needed to condense his spirit weapon and make it tangible.
This weapon will not be used in battles but will consolidate his knowledge and notions about the dao he pursues. This was a procedure that many people could not overcome their entire lives. Shi Lang was attempting it right now. This showed that he was composed and confident.
He was not rushing to breakthrough but the body could not digest so much energy at such a low cultivation realm. Shi Lang was tempering his body and he was also increasing his cultivation realm by condensing the spiritual weapon to the limits. The time alteration artifact aided him.
The Terran was under great pressure, his body was aching and his skin was flaking all over but he did not give up. He was focused on his cause.
Suddenly, a voice echoed in the surroundings, “The general is about to rise.”
Long Shan and Sect Master Ling became alert all of a sudden and reacted with there weapons shooting in the direction the voice originated from.
