Chapter 418: Chapter 401 Secret Technique Repairer
Immersed in this terrifying torture, feeling all imaginable pain, Wang Xu gritted his teeth hard to endure, until his teeth shattered and his mouth was full of blood.
Enduring such pain, every passing second felt like a century.
Rolling and roasting in the pain, Wang Xu was tormented like this for an entire night!
...
By the next day, at the break of dawn, Wang Xu in the water tank could no longer endure and fell unconscious.
No matter how firm he was in mind, having endured pain more torturous than Hell, he could not remain conscious.
As soon as he fell unconscious, all the pain receded like a tide.
Another day and night passed.
"Awake?"
You Ji looked at Wang Xu with a smile.
"Mmhm..."
Wang Xu’s eyes widened, and upon recalling the pain of his soul burning, his anger flared up, but just a slight tug on his muscles made him groan, his body stiffened, not daring to move.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, because you were unconscious, burning the soul had little effect, so I switched to burning your flesh... Don’t look at me like that, I’m doing this for your own good. The soul tempered through me will definitely be much stronger than before!"
First, the soul was burned, and then the flesh was burned.
Wang Xu’s whole body was roasted through.
It’s a lie to say he’s not angry, but Wang Xu didn’t immediately take issue with You Ji; instead, he was sensing the changes in his body.
"The toughness of the spiritual consciousness is more powerful than before and has increased significantly."
Spiritual consciousness stems from the soul, and when the soul is strong, the spiritual consciousness naturally benefits most.
Now, with just the spiritual consciousness emanating from him, Wang Xu can kill an invincible Black Hole Level opponent.
Such a level of spiritual consciousness, even a White Hole Level person might not achieve it.
"The mind has become clearer, and the speed of comprehension has also become faster."
Wang Xu tried to comprehend the "Red Sun Body Refining Technique" and found many parts that he did not understand before were now very clear, with a depth of understanding even surpassing that of what You Ji had taught him.
With a stronger soul, the comprehension of secret techniques naturally becomes more swift and effortless.
This is the excellence of a genius disciple.
Practicing a secret technique, mastering it faster represents the strength of one’s soul.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Wang Xu’s eyes focused.
Outside, a few leaves were drifting down.
But unlike before, the speed of these leaves falling was as if in slow motion, several times slower than usual!
Wang Xu stepped forward with a swish, arriving in front of the falling leaves, and slowly reached out his hand to catch one.
"This change... has a marvelous similarity to the enhancement of the Life Index!"
Wang Xu discovered the mystery within.
Enhancing the Life Index can make all aspects of a martial artist undergo a leap in transformation, whether spiritual consciousness or realm, can rapidly improve in a short time.
The current situation is quite similar to this.
The elevation of the soul has amplified the spiritual consciousness to a greater extent, stronger than before, making perception of the Heaven and Earth Will, secret martial techniques, and everything else more sensitive.
Wang Xu believes that after the burning of his soul, his spiritual consciousness will have an explosive enhancement in a short amount of time.
"Have you felt the changes?"
You Ji chuckled, looking quite proud.
"The enhanced perception response and spiritual consciousness from burning my soul can be clearly felt, but there seems to be no change in the physical body."
Wang Xu said.
"It’s too early to say that now, try cultivating the ’Red Sun Body Refining Technique’."
Hearing this, Wang Xu immediately dispersed the primordial qi throughout his flesh, then tightened his muscles and began to move slowly.
Each action generated a tearing in his muscles, causing intense pain.
However, this time, as Wang Xu performed the initial actions, he suddenly found there was no pain at all!
"See the benefits now, right?"
You Ji said proudly, "Burning your flesh made it more solid, which means your physical body can become several times tougher than before!"
Saying this, You Ji pursed his lips.
"It’s a pity these spirit medicines are too low-level and insufficient in quantity, otherwise they could make your physical body enhance more swiftly."
Wang Xu quickly moved, his fist striking in the void produced bursts of explosive sounds, causing even the void to show slight distortion.
This was the power generated purely by his physical body.
Without activating primordial power, Wang Xu already possesses strength comparable to a High Class White Hole Level!
If he uses primordial power, combined with various secret techniques and the support of the Heaven and Earth Will, Wang Xu can completely slay the strongest White Hole Level figures on the spot!
This is the price exchanged for burning pain beyond endurance.
"Alright, stop for now, your soul and body have just been burned and are recovering, it’s not advisable to cultivate too intensely; for the next three days, don’t cultivate."
You Ji said.
Wang Xu nodded and stopped his movements.
He initially wanted to keep cultivating like this until his time as a miscellaneous disciple was over and he became a true Divine Gate Disciple before considering other matters, but now that he happens to have free time, he decided to visit the "Shen Yi Sect" again to see if he could become a Secret Technique Repairer.
...
The next day, at dawn, Wang Xu started early towards the Divine Sect.
The Imperial Extreme Divine Sect is enormous, being one of the three giants of the Red Sun Divine Continent, it naturally occupies an incredibly vast territory.
Thus, whether it is the Pill Cauldron Pavilion for alchemy, the layered towers for arrays, or the Shen Yi Sect for secret technique repairers, they all occupy territories akin to a Great Dragon Dynasty.
Shen Yi Sect.
In no time, Wang Xu arrived here.
The Shen Yi Sect is the repository of all secret techniques of the Imperial Extreme Divine Sect. Whether it is low-tier martial techniques or high-tier secret techniques, even the incredibly powerful "Chaos Secret Technique," can be found here.
The disciples of the Divine Sect, ranging from Celestial Level to Mixed Universe Realm, frequent the area.
Among them, Wang Xu is not conspicuous.
"It’s open."
The last time Wang Xu came to the Shen Yi Sect, he happened to encounter a closure, but this time he was not so "lucky."
Entering the Shen Yi Sect, his vision suddenly broadened.
Rows upon rows of books are neatly arranged on the shelves, in perfect order. Occasionally, one or two books float up and land in the hands of a nearby Divine Sect disciple, who carefully peruses them.
Wang Xu glanced around; on each bookshelf, clear labels such as "Physical Body Secret Technique," "Body Technique Secret Technique," "Sword Secret Technique"... etc., were plainly visible at a glance.
If observed more closely, one would notice that the size of the characters varies. The larger the characters, the higher the level of the secret technique, making it easy to find the one desired.
Wang Xu wove through the bookshelves; probing with spiritual consciousness is not allowed here, or he would be expelled from the Shen Yi Sect, so he had to activate the Mechanical Ancient Eye to scan and analyze all the books.
"This secret technique..."
Wang Xu raised his head, his body slowly rising into the air.
The bookshelves of the Shen Yi Sect reach several tens of meters, all filled with books.
A book floated over and was grasped by Wang Xu.
"Pure Yang Infinite Saber."
This secret technique was precisely the sword secret technique Wang Xu obtained at the Kunlong Martial Sect.
Wang Xu flipped through a few pages and then discovered that the secret technique in his hands was actually more complete than the one at Kunlong Martial Sect!
"Pure Yang Infinite Saber" is divided into two styles, one being Pure Yang Saber, and the other Infinite Saber.
However, there is an additional style in this secret technique.
Pure Yang Wuji.
Wang Xu then carefully began to read.
It was only after a long while that Wang Xu put the "Pure Yang Infinite Saber" back on the shelf.
This trip was not in vain.
Wang Xu had already memorized the third style and could begin cultivation once he returned.
"Time to get down to business."
After wandering around, Wang Xu followed the most crowded path and walked deeper into the Shen Yi Sect.
"... took three incense sticks, not qualified, next!"
A crisp voice rang out, and a long queue had formed in front of Wang Xu.
Wang Xu glanced over and saw a green-clad girl with twin ponytails recording information of each Divine Sect disciple at a wooden table.
Once Divine Sect disciples finished registration, they could receive a secret technique from a Mixed Universe Realm elder, then sit cross-legged nearby to comprehend it.
Thus, when Wang Xu looked over, there were already over a hundred Divine Sect disciples sitting cross-legged on the ground, or frowning as they flipped through their secret techniques.
"... Why is it that the difficulty of being a secret technique repairer is greater than that of an alchemist or an array master? If it weren’t for hearing that one could study the ’Chaos Secret Technique,’ I wouldn’t bother being a secret technique repairer!"
The Divine Sect disciple who had just been deemed unqualified left with a face full of resentment.
Can one study the Chaos Secret Technique?
This indeed sparked Wang Xu’s greater interest in becoming a secret technique repairer.
Wang Xu wanted to become a secret technique repairer just to get more exposure to incomplete secret techniques and to let You Ji blend and create. Now, it seems there are more unexpected benefits.
The line moved quickly; as soon as they registered and received a secret technique, they would go aside to comprehend it, so Wang Xu didn’t wait long to reach the front.
"Name."
The green-clad girl asked without raising her head.
"Wang Xu."
"Realm."
"Invincible Black Hole Level."
"Go inside to receive your secret technique."
The green-clad girl did not raise her head at all throughout.
But from her profile, Wang Xu could see that this green-clad girl was a rare beauty.
Seeing Wang Xu, the Mixed Universe Realm elder handed out a secret technique, saying, "Three incense sticks duration, comprehension to the third layer counts as passing."
After speaking, the Mixed Universe Realm elder waved a hand, and an illusory incense stick was lit in front of Wang Xu.
"Horror Wave Saber Technique."
Wang Xu casually flipped through a few pages, discovering this secret technique was a middle-tier one, divided into five layers, with each layer’s difficulty progressively increasing.
Approaching the crowd sitting cross-legged, Wang Xu did not sit down directly, but carefully reviewed this middle-tier secret technique.
"Too difficult, no clue at all."
"They expect me to comprehend to the second layer within three incense sticks, it’s simply too hard."
"You’re still complaining, yours is a middle-tier secret technique. Mine is a high-tier, and they expect me to comprehend the first realm within three incense sticks, how is that possible!"
Whispers of complaint arose below.
These genius disciples, though each is a rare talent among ten thousand, find it incredibly difficult to successfully cultivate a secret technique, let alone within just three incense sticks. Many genius disciples were overwhelmed and frustrated. (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian () to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.
