Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Level 6 Innate Talent
Translator: 549690339
Boom!!
Intense booming sounds continuously resounded in the air.
At the same time, a terrifying aura fluctuation was generated from Lu Yun’s body, forming a nearly substantial field around him.
Such a powerful aura that even Lu Yun was greatly shocked in his heart.
As the Pure Yang Aura rapidly increased and dispersed, a scorching heat emanated from his body and gradually spread in all directions.
Centered around him, a silhouette gradually appeared, giving off the sensation of a large sun hanging over the cliff top, shining brightly.
The Pure Yang Aura was excessively yang, and under its rapid rise, Lu Yun was unable to completely control it, causing an overflow, as if being scorched by a large sun.
He could clearly feel the rapid rise in temperature around him. If it weren’t for the cold wind constantly blowing atop the cliff, he would be tormented by the horrendous heat, with his last disciple’s clothing being destroyed.
Several hours later.
Lu Yun sat cross-legged atop the cliff’s peak without moving, his mind immersed in the memories of digesting Pure Yang Aura and elevating it from Reach Profound to Perceive Truth levels.
After completely digesting the memories, he once again immersed his mind into his Dantian.
At this moment, his Dantian was incredibly full, with Pure Yang Aura continuously overflowing.
Within his fourteen meridians, the massive aura was like huge rivers, roaring violently as if it could break through the constraints of his meridians at any moment, wreaking havoc in all directions.
Feeling the vast and arrogant aura, Lu Yun gave a faint smile.
Everything inside his body was under his control; if his body was a territory, he would be the supreme ruler of that territory.
Even the powerful and cheeky Pure Yang Aura could not escape his grasp.
With a slight movement of his mind, it seemed as if an unparalleled great force appeared, and the previously turbulent Pure Yang Aura immediately became docile, obediently flowing through his meridians, pouring into his Dantian, and then returning to his meridians in a continuous cycle.
Lu Yun slowly opened his eyes; by that time, the round moon in the sky had already quietly disappeared, with a sliver of white gradually emerging atop the distant mountains.
Immediately after, he once again focused his mind, directing his attention to the panel.
First, the Martial Arts column showed that the Pure Yang Aura had been upgraded to the Perceive Truth level and could not be further upgraded.
Second, his Innate Talent had been directly upgraded from Level 5 to Level 6 without passing through the Level 5 peak stage.
Lu Yun speculated that for the panel, there was no difference between ordinary Level 5 talents and peak Level 5 talents, and there was no need to make a distinction.
Of course, this was just Lu Yun’s speculation.
Next, his attention focused on the Martial Arts column.
As expected, his realm was still at the peak of the Meridian Passage Realm, but there was an additional meridian added, called the Du Yang Meridian.
“Ren Yin, Du Yang… I wonder what they have to do with the Ren and Du meridians?”
Lu Yun also didn’t pay much attention, muttering to himself before shifting his focus to the energy levels.
“Only 930 energy points left? The Pure Yang Aura is too terrifying, consuming nearly 500 Contribution Points just to be upgraded from Reach Profound to Perceive Truth.”
While the frightening energy consumption made Lu Yun’s heart ache, the sensation of his foundation becoming stronger and more terrifying erased all that heartache.
“The Pure Yang Aura has already been upgraded to its limit; refining the aura once more will allow me to ascend to the True Qi Realm…”
“There’s no need to rush into advancing to the True Qi Realm. My main task now is to focus on the Seven Kill Saber Technique and the Black Tiger Saber Technique. Only by advancing both aura and saber techniques simultaneously can I maximize my strength.”
Lu Yun silently pondered, weighing the pros and cons.
He was now at the peak of the Meridian Passage Realm, with a foundation far superior to any other Meridian Passage Realm Martial Artist.
Logically speaking, even if he were to advance to the True Qi Realm now, the establishment of a solid foundation would easily help him complete the refinement of his aura nine times.
However, his validations that others wished for were not what Lu Yun valued. It was a task he planned to accomplish effortlessly.
From his perspective, mastering a state of mind during the Meridian Passage Realm was the most important step.
“Continue to upgrade the Seven Kill Saber Technique!”
After the Pure Yang Aura advanced to the Perceive Truth Realm, Lu Yun’s physical body was nourished and greatly enhanced.
[Consume 30 energy points, Seven Kill Saber Technique upgraded to Perfection (17%)]
[Consume 30 energy points, Seven Kill Saber Technique upgraded to Perfection (32%)]
[Consume … Seven Kill Saber Technique upgraded to Reach Profound, cannot be upgraded further!]
At the moment when the Seven Kill Saber Technique reached its limit, a deep red Killing Intent emanated from the peak of the mountain, turning the surrounding area of Lu Yun within a hundred feet into a cold, icy region.
Meanwhile, Lu Yun’s consciousness was immersed in a suddenly appearing memory.
This memory was very lifelike.
It was more like an immersive experience than a memory.
In the memory.
The battered ground made a muffled groan under the charge of countless iron hooves.
Lu Yun’s consciousness descended upon a young general, leading his remaining three thousand soldiers to fight against nearly ten thousand enemies.
The wind grew stronger, the snow fell harder, and the weather colder.
The fierce north wind whipped snow at the soldiers, their faces and hands already numb as if their bones had frozen.
Even the horses, which dared not neigh due to the cold, could only gallop through the accumulating snow to withstand the harsh wind.
Long ago, the banner became tattered and torn but still fluttered with the ‘Black Flag’ amidst the gusty wind, never falling.
Lu Yun was initially a little confused when he suddenly appeared on a battlefield so full of the scents and sights of war.
The cold and heavy armor on the general’s body, the undulating motion of the horses, and the sharp, shrill wind all contributed to the realism and gravity of the atmosphere.
However, with the help of the system panel and memory, he quickly immersed himself in the role.
However, he did not completely replace the consciousness of this general nor control the body his consciousness descended upon.
He was both the general and a bystander.
Nonetheless, the general’s perception, emotions, etc. were all transmitted to Lu Yun.
“The invincible Black Flag Army! All the generals and soldiers, follow me and kill the enemies!”
The general that Lu Yun was possessing raised a bloodstained, cold and murderous saber, and spoke in a heavy voice.
With these words,
The faces of the three thousand remaining soldiers showed fearlessness and unwavering determination.
To survive on the battlefield, one must embrace the determination to die.
This was their willingness to die in order to live, and the secret to the Black Flag Army’s record of attacking without fail and winning every battle.
Behind them were the pursuing enemies, while ahead awaited the well-rested adversaries.
“Kill!”
The moment the saber was drawn, all the Black Flag Army soldiers exuded boldness and were utterly fearless of the enemies waiting ahead like a coiled dragon.
“For those who survive this battle, you will be promoted by three ranks, it’s a promise I will personally make!”
With that said,
‘Lu Yun’ leaped into the air from the galloping warhorse, exuding an overwhelming presence that momentarily shook all the warhorses and Black Flag Army soldiers behind him.
Immediately after, the morale of all the Black Flag Army soldiers soared, and a fearless expression filled their faces.
“As long as we have the general, the Black Flag Army will fight a hundred battles without dying!”
“Kill!”
