Heavenly Tyrant Martial Soul

Chapter 11: Advancing with Amazing Speed

After cultivating just two hours, Ling Xiaos <Pure Yang Technique> actually broke through the first layer.

The true qi within his body noticeably thickened. Following his bodily transformation, his body discharged internal impurities as liquid waste.

Black and somewhat smelly, he inspected it between his fingers before wiping himself down with a towel. Although he still smelled a bit, he had no time to waste.

Although his strength hadnt increased, his true qi and the resiliency of his meridians had improved by at least two to three times.

Breaking through the first layer of <Pure Yang Technique> in just two hours was truly astonishing!

Unable to control his excitement, he imagined his future. This internal technique had only three layers. After cultivating the third layer to perfection, all his attacks would contain flame qi.

He even had the possibility to form flame gang qi.

One should know that only martial artists above Rank Four Martial Vein could grasp gang qi. In fact, the biggest advantage of this martial art was this since it could allow cultivators to overcome rank differences.

However, since it was incredibly difficult to cultivate this merit law to perfection, not many cultivators cultivated it. After all, compared to wasting time cultivating this merit law as a pipedream, it was better to work hard and feasibly improve ones strength. Anyway, once a martial artist reached Rank Four Martial Vein, their true qi would automatically convert into gang qi.

Ling Xiao thought differently. If he could condense gang qi in the awakening stage, his combat power would exponentially increase.

He cultivated <Pure Yang Technique> for another two hours to stabilize the first layer before moving onto another martial art.

In accordance with the guidance of the Landscape Martial Soul, only by simultaneously cultivating these five martial arts in succession could he achieve the most effective results.

In other words, he shouldnt persistently progress in only one; he had to first cultivate all five martial arts to the first layer before working on the second. Their effects would be the best like that.

Next, he chose <Meteorite Fist>.

This martial skill was an attack skill that would complement his offense. 

Like the Landscape Martial Soul had described, after learning <Pure Yang Technique>, cultivating <Meteorite Fist> became much easier.

This fist technique had nine styles in total; the movements were also very simple. Altogether, each style had nine variations. It pursued power, not speed or mysterious variations.

Ling Xiao appreciated this because it was simple to practice.

In an extremely short period of only four hours, Ling Xiao fully mastered <Meteorite Fist> from the first to the sixth styles although he still had some difficulty with the latter three styles.

However, he didnt persist and instead switched to cultivate <Violent Qi Formula>.

This was a secret technique with only a single layer. Although complex in practice, its actual function was very simple: to condense a large pool of true qi in a martial skill and erupt in a burst of power.

Naturally, the eruptions strength could be controlled, but whether it were 60%, 70% or even 100%, all were desperate means that would exceed a cultivators usual output limits.

Although Ling Xiao wanted to test the might of <Meteorite Fist> under the effects of <Violent Qi Formula> now, he endured. In order to maintain his endurance in battle, he had to master <Return Qi Formula> too.

Just like <Violent Qi Formula>, <Return Qi Formula> was also a secret technique. As long as one grasped its key concept, it was easy to cultivate and similarly had just one layer.

Relying on the analysis of his Landscape Martial Soul, he needed only two hours to master it.

<Return Qi Formula> had two effects. One was to continuously restore true qi at all times throughout the whole body. Naturally, the speed of this accumulation was relatively slow.

Its second function was rapid accumulation of true qi if he meditated without moving. Like that, his true qi would be completely recovered within 15 minutes although he would be unable to battle during that time period.

Naturally, this amazing recovery was limited to those in the awakening stage, i.e. martial artists below Rank Three Martial Vein.

The higher the cultivation level, the longer it would take to completely recover. After all, true qi reserves expanded with each new vein. 

The cultivation of <Rush Steps>s first layer was also relatively simple. It focused on ones momentum. With his previous foundations, he simply cultivated this movement technique under the effects of Violent Qi, so he took only 15 minutes to breakthrough the first layer.

After recovering his true qi using Return Qi, he returned to cultivating <Pure Yang Technique> under the effects of Violent Qi and easily broke through the second layer.

Now, Ling Xiao truly wished to seek an opponent against whom practice his skills. With the Soul of Fist merit laws, he believed that he wouldnt be any inferior to even a Rank Three Martial Vein martial artist.

Although he didnt dare to say that he would easily win, he also wouldnt lose unless the other party also had several special merit laws.

Overcoming his pleasant surprise, he intensified his cultivation. Other than eating his evening meal, he effectively locked himself in his room.

Two days later, Ling Xiaos <Pure Yang Technique> was close to perfection for the third layer. He had comprehended the seventh style of <Meteorite Fist>, and he had basically mastered all the styles and variations of <Rush Steps>.

The problem lay in his room being too small since it lacked the space for him to nimbly dart about. If he wanted to test <Rush Steps>, he would have to find somewhere more spacious.

<Meteorite Fist> faced similar problems. He required actual combat. With only solitary training, it was difficult to comprehend the true essence of this martial skill.

At this moment, his martial realm was approaching Peak Rank Two Martial Vein. His breakthrough was close at hand.

Perhaps, he truly needed a battle.

However, before that, he had to visit the auction house to figure out whether those ten basic martial arts had been sold.

If they had, he would make his grandfather see a doctor. In addition, he would then anonymously sell his remaining basic martial arts.

Soon, Ling Xiao arrived at the auction house.

The manager told him that all ten basic martial arts had been sold for a total of 100 silver taels. However, after deducting the service charge, the auction house had already transferred the remaining 90 taels of silver to his banking house account.

Ling Xiao was very satisfied.

At the banking house next door, Ling Xiao checked his account to confirm the presence of the 90 taels of silver.

Finally, he left another ten basic martial arts with the auction house.

Fortunately, the people at the auction house didnt pay any special attention to his plethora of techniques. After all, they were just basic martial arts of which they had seen many. 

After taking out some silver, Ling Xiao went to hire a doctor specialized in treating skeletal injuries.

But who would have imagined that just when he arrived at the Ling Clans side entrance, he would discover a group practicing their movement techniques.

Although they could practice in the training grounds, there were comparatively more trees outside. Furthermore, there were many beam structures, making the terrain rather complex. This place was actually more suitable for practicing movement techniques.

Whoosh!

A figure directly nimbly scuttled through the trees like a spirit ape, before gently landing on the ground.

Fierce movement technique! Senior apprentice brother Ling Feis movement technique is the first in Elite Hall! No one can reach it.

Yes, even if he has some deficiencies in other aspects, just relying on this movement technique, he can trouble many of his peers.

Exactly! In the world of martial arts, speed defines the winner! With this movement technique and his speed, perhaps senior apprentice brother Ling Fei will become the first within Elite Hall this annual competition.

A group of people below shouted non-stop.

I wonder how my <Rush Steps> compares to Ling Fei?

This scene truly made Ling Xiaos heart itch. Ling Feis movement technique was indeed amazing, but he was not convinced at the elite disciples superiority.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Perhaps encouraged by those people, Ling Fei deliberately successively switched directions in midair. His movements contained an elegant finesse that exceeded his previous darting.

Yet because of his insufficient strength, he unexpectedly nearly fell at the end. Desperately trying to catch himself, he caught sight of Ling Xiao and tried to step on his shoulder to avoid losing face.

Ling Xiao had no enmity towards Ling Fei, but he was unwilling to let Ling Fei step on him, so he simply lifted his leg upward, providing him a perch to land on.

Ling Fei lightly landed on the ground, but his face contained a trace of anger.

Senior apprentice brother Ling is so amazing! He can move through the air so gracefully! Hes so swift that its like hes a flying swallow.

They hadnt realized that Ling Fei had been too complacent just now and almost made a fool of himself, so they dared to boast, which only made Ling Fei feel more ashamed.
