Chapter 294: Advancement of Quake Energy
Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Jay
Although Hu Li hadn’t seen a Void Advancement Pill before, but he’d heard of it.
The Void Advancement Pill, a precious grade medicinal pill that’s able to allow a Half-step Void Stage martial artist to directly step into the Void Prying Stage!
And possessed extraordinary value.
Now, the drop of Monkey King Wine in his hand actually had the medicinal effect of a Void Advancement Pill, and it’s the effect of a Void Advancement Pill without side effects?
Wouldn’t that mean that this drop of Monkey King Wine is even more valuable than a Void Advancement Pill?!
Hu Li’s breathing became hurried, and in the end he gritted his teeth before passing the pill bottle that contained the drop of Monkey King Wine back to Duan Ling Tian.
"Duan Ling Tian, this Monkey King Wine is too valuable, I can’t keep it. I’m perfectly satisfied and content that I’m being able to drink this Monkey Wine in this lifetime." As he finished speaking, Hu Li laugher slyly, and had a simple and honest expression as he looked at his other hand that held the jug of wine.
"You really don’t want it?" Duan Ling Tian received the pill bottle, and a wisp of a smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.
"No!" Hu Li shook his head, and with a raise of his hand, he put the spout of the jug of wine against his mouth, then drank the Monkey Wine.
Hu Li only drank a mouthful when his eyes couldn’t help but spring open wide, then he put down the wine jug and closed his eyes…
Duan Ling Tian was able to discern that Hu Li was cultivating, and dissolving the medicinal strength of the Monkey Wine.
When Hu Li opened his eyes once again, a strand of bright light flashed within.
"You… Broke through just like that?" Duan Ling Tian was stunned as he looked at Hu Li, as relying on his sharp Spiritual Force, he perceived that minute changes that had occurred on Hu Li’s body.
"I was originally only one last step away from breaking through to the fourth level of the Origin Core Stage… Now that I’ve drank the Monkey Wine, I directly broke through in one go!" Hu Li laugher, and looked fixedly at the jug of Monkey Wine in his hand as if he’d obtained a treasure, as if deeply afraid the Monkey Wine would vanish from his hands.
"You really don’t want this drop of Monkey King Wine? With it, and relying on your natural talent, so long as you step into the Half-step Void Stage in the future, you’ll be able to break through to the Void Prying Stage in one go." Duan Ling Tian shook the pill bottle in his hand that contained the Monkey King Wine, and the smile on the corners of his mouth grew even wider.
Hu Li glances at the pill bottle with reluctance when he heard Duan Ling Tian, but in the end he shook his head. "Keep it for yourself… I presume you don’t have much of this Monkey King Wine. In the future, you’ll be able to use it eventually."
Duan Ling Tian never expected that when faced with such great temptation, Hu Li would actually think for his sake, and his heart was slightly warm.
Hu Li was worthy of being taken as a life and death friend by him.
"Alright, I won’t tease you anymore, keep it. Even though the Monkey King Wine in my possession isn’t many, but it’s still enough." Duan Ling Tian didn’t care about Hu Li’s refusal as he shoved the pill bottle in Hu Li’s hand, then turned around and left in an unrestrained manner. "I’m leaving, I have some things to do. I won’t send you off when you’re leaving… Right, tell He Chun your house address later, and ask him to tell it to me. I’ll go see you when I’m free in the future."
At the same time that Duan Ling Tian left, he raised his hand and waved it, bidding his farewell to Hu Li.
Even though he had a slight sense of loss in his heart, but he understood that all good things in this world must come to an end.
"Duan Ling Tian, thank you." Hu Li took a deep breath as he gazed at Duan Ling Tian’s restrained figure vanishing into the distance and was slightly excited.
He glanced at the Monkey King Wine and Monkey Wine his hand, and his mood was slightly heavy.
Duan Ling Tian’s gift was too valuable!
When he saw Duan Ling Tian’s figure completely disappeared before him, Hu Li’s eyes squinted and lit up with traces of bright light, then muttered. "Duan Ling Tian, don’t worry. Even if one of my legs is crippled, I won’t die down just like this… I’ll surely make you look at me in a different light the next time we meet."
At this moment, Hu Li’s will in the Martial Dao was firm like a sharp sword, as if it could destroy everything!
And it was precisely because of this determination that caused Duan Ling Tian to have a face full of shock and disbelief when he met Hu Li again many years from then…
"Hu." Duan Ling Tian let out a long breath of air after he left the gorge Hu Li was in.
Even after experiencing two lifetimes, when faced with farewells, Duan Ling Tian’s heart still had an inexplicable feeling of sadness.
"Time to once again go look for those two little fellows that make me worry…" After Duan Ling Tian left Phecda Peak, he didn’t return to Megrez Peak, and directly walked down Dubhe Peak, then walked out of the sect to head towards the primeval forest that fierce beasts and demon beasts roamed unrestrainedly in.
After Duan Ling Tian entered the primeval forest, he sped up…
All the fierce beasts that he encountered on the way were practically killed with a single fist from him!
Even to the extent he didn’t use martial skills or Quake Energy.
Finally, along with him continuously entering deeper into the primeval forest, the fierce beasts he encountered became stronger, and there were even many sixth level Origin Core Stage fierce beasts.
Practically all these fierce beasts had their throats slit with a single sword strike.
With the strength that Duan Ling Tian controlled now, one he executed the Sword Drawing Arts, the speed of his sword was something that even sixth level Origin Core Stage fierce beasts wouldn’t be able to react to.
"I should test some Quake Energy." Duan Ling Tian’s gaze looked around then his figure flashed out.
Spirit Serpent Movement Technique!
Continue going deeper in.
"Roar!" A loud roar that deafened the ears entered into Duan Ling Tian’s ears, causing Duan Ling Tian’s eardrums to hurt, as if a thunderclap piercing his ears.
Bang!
An enormous fierce beast came over from afar, as if transforming into a gust of wind that descended before Duan Ling Tian in the blink of an eye.
When the fierce beast dashed, the ground shook as if the earth quaked and the hills swayed.
In the air, 100 ancient mammoth silhouettes appeared….
"Seven level Origin Core Stage fierce beast!" Duan Ling Tian was shocked in his heart, and he seriously sized up the fierce beast before him.
This was an enormous tiger that was covered in jet-black and shiny fur, and spots of sunlight passed through the shroud of the forest to descend onto its body, causing its fur to flicker with a dazzling sheen.
Relying on the erudite memories of Rebirth Martial Emperor, Duan Ling Tian recognized this tiger type fierce beast with a single glance.
Black Tiger!
Seventh level Origin Core Stage fierce beast.
This Black Tiger was most adept at speed and strength, and its defense was slightly weak.
Of course, saying its defense was weak was only comparatively weaker to other seventh level Origin Core Stage fierce beasts.
"Roar!" The dark grey colored eyes of the Black Tiger stared at Duan Ling Tian, and it opened its bloody mouth to emit a threatening low roar, as if warning Duan Ling Tian to leave it’s domain.
"Interesting." A smile appeared on the corners of Duan Ling Tian’s mouth, and his eyes sized up the Black Tiger before him with interest.
The Black Tiger saw Duan Ling Tian smiling and thought Duan Ling Tian was provoking it, then roared in rage before pouncing towards Duan Ling Tian. It opened its bloody mouth, and fiercely bit at him.
The fangs of the Black Tiger flickered with a sharp and icy cold sheen.
If Duan Ling Tian were to be bitten, it would be impossible for him to survive!
"So fast!" The Black Tiger’s speed relied on the strength of 100 ancient mammoths to power, and was far from something Duan Ling Tian’s current speed could compare to.
At the instant that the Black Tiger pounced over, Duan Ling Tian didn’t dodge and instead leaped on the spot, perfectly dodging the Black Tiger’s bloody mouth and those sharp fangs.
Bang!
The Black Tiger’s pounce hit nothing, and a sense of rage arose within its dark grey eyes.
"Roar!" The Black Tiger roared lowly, then it turned its head to once again bite at Duan Ling Tian.
And just at this moment, Duan Ling Tian made his move.
The strength of 81 ancient mammoths fully exploded out! Without holding back!
Dragons Finishing Touch!
Duan Ling Tian pointed out his finger with the profundity of a dragon’s finishing touch, and brought about a burst of piercing sounds as it pointed onto the forehead of the Black Tiger.
Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian’s gaze went cold.
Quake Energy!
Instantly, the Origin Energy on the tip of Duan Ling Tian’s finger violently jumped about, and the frequency grew higher and higher…
Pu!
Under the assistance of the Quake Energy, Duan Ling Tian’s finger seemed to transform into a sharp sword that easily penetrated the Black Tiger between the brows, and fresh blood scattered into the air as his finger continued to point onto the Black Tiger’s skull.
"Roar!" The Black Tiger emitted a miserable low roar, then its enormous figure abruptly trembled, wanting to resist.
But unfortunately, his resistance was too late.
Along with Duan Ling Tian’s finger descending down and pointing onto the Black Tiger’s skull, the terrifying Quake Energy instantly shattered the Black Tiger’s skull, and continued to spread onto the bones in the Black Tiger’s entire body…
"Crackle crackle…" Ear piercing sounds of bones fracturing slowly suppressed the low roars of the Black Tiger that slowly became dispirited.
Bang!
It wasn’t long before the enormous body of the Black Tiger crashed onto the ground, and was completely devoid of any signs of life.
Duan Ling Tian’s gaze abruptly shone as he looked at the Black Tiger’s corpse that collapsed, and was slightly excited. "I never imagined that the Quake Energy advanced so much!"
The finger strike Duan Ling Tian pointed out earlier relied upon all the strength in him, the strength of 81 ancient mammoths!
Whereas the Black Tiger instead possessed a strength of 100 ancient mammoths!
Compared to it, Duan Ling Tian’s strength was an entire 19 ancient mammoths lesser.
If it was the Quake Energy from before, it would be impossible to affect the Black Tiger…
Now, it instead killed the Black Tiger like cutting through dry leaves!
In other words, the scope of effect of the Quake Energy had increased significantly.
In the past, the effect of the Quake Energy was only able to materialize on opponents who weren’t more than 10 ancient mammoths stronger than Duan Ling Tian… In other words, the past Quake Energy’s scope of effect was within the strength of 10 ancient mammoths.
Now, based on the present circumstances, even if Duan Ling Tian and the Black Tiger had a difference of strength of 19 ancient mammoths between them, but the effects of the Quake Energy still manifested.
In other words, the scope of effect of the Quake Energy had already extended to the strength of 19 ancient mammoths!
Specific details would still require Duan Ling Tian to test it by himself.
Duan Ling Tian put away the Black Tiger’s beast core, then continued to head deeper into the primeval forest…
Subsequently, he successively encountered three seventh level Origin Core Stage fierce beasts, and completely tested and found out the scope of effect of the Quake Energy he now controlled.
The scope of effect of the Quake Energy was within the strength of 20 ancient mammoths currently!
In other words, when Duan Ling Tian killed the Black Tiger with Quake Energy before, it just happened to be within the limit of the scope of effect of the Quake Energy.
"With my current strength, and relying on Quake Energy… I’m practically invincible at the seventh level of the Origin Core Stage and below! If a seventh level Origin Core Stage martial artist didn’t use a spirit weapon, or perhaps their spirit weapon is inferior to mine, then they’re all not a match for me." Duan Ling Tian slightly pondered and speculated in his heart.
Of course, he knew that the latter circumstances might be possible in any other place, but if within the Seven Star Sword Sect, it was practically impossible.
Practically all Seven Star Sword Sect disciples at the seventh level of the Origin Core Stage or above possessed a grade seven spirit sword.
In terms of spirit weapons, he didn’t have any advantages.
Now, when he faced seventh level Origin Core Stage disciples of the Seven Star Sword Sect, it was similar to when he faced the Phecda Peak’s Shao Ying when his cultivation was at the fourth level of the Origin Core Stage.
Unless he can make his opponent abandon the sword.
Otherwise, if he didn’t use an inscription, it would be extremely difficult to defeat his opponent.
