Chapter 333: Chapter 220: The Legacy of Heavenly Puppet Sect! Divine Power Twin Fruit Skill! Battling the Ruan Family Brothers Again!
True Martial Ancient Hall.
Above the massive plaque of the bronze ancient hall, four characters loomed majestically, their formation robust and forceful. The vigorous spiritual power and Primordial Power oscillated the heavens and the earth as they were brushed into being.
The palace doors slowly opened, revealing an unfathomably deep passageway, its end not visible at first sight.
"We’re finally catching up. Although a hundred keys fly out each time the True Martial Ancient Hall opens, in truth, some geniuses always fall along the way. Including us, there are about eighty geniuses here now; the competition is already immense."
"The Ruan Lei and Ruan Yan twins are indeed already here, and they arrived some time ago."
"However, from what I understand, every genius who enters the True Martial Ancient Hall is teleported to a random location by their key. Ordinarily, the two brothers could spend a great deal of time finding each other, but in here, significant opportunities can arise at any moment."
"Wasting significant time to reunite would be a foolish loss."
Looking at the number of geniuses in front of him, Xue Xuan transmitted his thoughts via spiritual communication, his tone filled with murderous intent.
In the Spirit Cleansing Pool, not only had his spiritual power fully recovered, but he even faintly sensed he was touching the Late Stage. Confronting either Ruan Lei or Ruan Yan again, he was quite certain he could kill them. As for Jiang Shu, his improvement was even more terrifying.
If I absorbed two-tenths of the energy in the Spirit Cleansing Pool, then Jiang Shu absorbed eight-tenths!
To this day, he couldn’t understand how Jiang Shu had managed it.
His Cultivation Technique and Martial Arts were clearly inferior to my own, yet whether in combat capability or in seizing opportunities, Jiang Shu surpassed me by more than just a small margin.
"Hmm."
As they spoke, a genius from a top-tier Dynasty could no longer hold back. Their bronze key emitted a strange glow, enveloping them in a ball of light before they transformed into a streak and rushed into the True Martial Ancient Hall.
"Be careful."
Exchanging a glance with Xue Xuan, Jiang Shu activated his bronze key. Immediately, he, like the multitude of other geniuses, transformed into a streak of light and entered.
From the outside, the True Martial Ancient Hall did not seem large, but it truly contained a world within. Among the countless opportunities, there were also various dangerous restrictive formations. A single misstep could lead to one’s death and the destruction of their Dao path.
The surging Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was almost like a tidal wave.
As the Holy Embryo breathed wildly, the Primordial Power within Jiang Shu’s acupoints was instantly replenished. He stepped onto the ground. Fourth Rank Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicines, which could be used to refine various Elixirs in the Dynasties, were innumerable here, growing as freely as wildflowers and weeds. What made his eyes narrow further was that on a nearby cliff edge, several stalks of Sixth Rank Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicines were growing.
If one were to engage in Cultivation here, any Martial Artist in the Acupoint Passage Realm could successfully open all 365 acupoints within a few short years. For those with a Spiritual Body, progress would be astonishingly rapid.
And this was merely a random spot within the True Martial Ancient Hall.
It’s a pity I can’t spend more time cultivating here. However, the fact that the True Martial Ancient Hall in the Hundred Dynasties Battlefield is like this proves that there are definitely better Cultivation environments within the True Martial Sect. Dharma, wealth, companionship, and land—only by joining a Sect can all these needs be fully met!
Jiang Shu stomped his foot, collected the several stalks of Sixth Rank Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicines into a jade box, then immediately chose a direction and sped away.
For him, who already possessed the inheritance of Master Ming Lei, he wasn’t lacking in Elixirs.
The Pure Essence Pills were sufficient for his Cultivation all the way to the Primordial Pill Realm.
What he needed to do now, in this True Martial Ancient Hall, was to obtain a Spirit Rank Cultivation Technique that would allow him to cultivate to the Furnace Fire Realm!
And acquire Divine Skills that could only be cultivated upon reaching the Furnace Fire Realm!
...
「Outside the Hundred Dynasties Battlefield.」
Everything happening within the True Martial Ancient Hall was displayed, detail by detail, on a giant scroll.
An Outer Disciple of the True Martial Sect, while marking promising geniuses, remarked, "This Yan Jun from the Great Qian Dynasty is quite good. He obtained the inheritance of the Martial Arts manual, ’Crane Longevity Fist,’ so quickly! You know, that Martial Arts manual originates from the Divine Skill, Crane Longevity Body. If he manages to comprehend it, his lifespan could extend by several decades compared to Martial Artists of the same Realm. We’re still unsure how many Contribution Points it would even take to exchange for that Divine Skill."
"His luck is good, but this Martial Arts manual doesn’t mean much to him. A top-tier Dynasty’s inheritance already includes several excellent Martial Arts manuals. Besides, deriving Divine Skills from it is far from easy. There are numerous servant disciples in our Sect who have cultivated this Martial Arts manual to Perfection, but who among them can truly take that final step?"
"You can’t look at it that way. He broke through the restrictive formation in just a quarter of an hour. That formation is equivalent to the full-powered defense of some Martial Artists at the Peak of the Detachment Realm. This means he already possesses the strength to kill those at the Peak of the Detachment Realm. If he cultivates in our Sect for a while, he will surely break through to the Furnace Fire Realm."
"True. Hmm, this young fellow is also quite good; he directly obtained a Puppet Technique inheritance. Inside, there’s a refining method for a Spirit Rank Puppet. Once successfully refined, it possesses the power of the Furnace Fire Realm, certainly providing strong protection. It’s just that the Puppet Technique is hard to learn, and refining it also requires a lot of materials and energy. I don’t know if he’s willing to invest."
"Our True Martial Sect prioritizes one’s Cultivation Realm, but that doesn’t mean we reject other unorthodox arts. If a Disciple could emerge who cultivates the Puppet Technique, that would be excellent. After all, in some special environments, the role of a Puppet can be extremely significant."
"Let’s see his choice. If I remember correctly, this inheritance comes from the Heavenly Puppet Sect, doesn’t it? Their Sect’s Puppet refining is indeed formidable; I suffered a minor loss to them once. What’s this little guy’s name? I didn’t pay much attention to him before. He’s not from a top-tier or high-ranking Dynasty, is he?"
