Ji Tianxing practiced hard in the secret room on the seventh level of the Sword Heart, and in just one day, he successfully opened twelve acupoints.
His strength increased again, reaching the seventh level of Yuan Dan realm!
As time passed, Zangtian continued to deliver his skills, and he went all out to practice his skills, and his strength also increased rapidly.
Three days later, he opened twenty-four acupoints, and his strength reached the eighth level of the Yuan Dan realm!
He has eighteen sword veins and ninety-six acupoints, and his combat power is several times higher than that of warriors of the same realm!
From this moment on, no one in the Tianyuan realm can be his opponent!
Even if he encounters a half-step Tianyuan realm expert like Guitong again, he can still defeat him!
However, Ji Tianxing ended his three-day retreat and no longer continued to practice.
In just three days, his skill skyrocketed to the third level. This was absolutely unbelievable and a miracle that shocked the martial arts world.
The rapid improvement of skill will inevitably lead to an unstable foundation of martial arts.
Just like a castle in the air, no matter how high it is, it will eventually collapse.
Therefore, after Ji Tianxing reached the eighth level of Yuan Dan Realm, he temporarily stopped practicing and prepared to consolidate his martial arts foundation.
At this moment, Zangtian's voice sounded in his mind.
"Ji Tianxing, I have helped you refine the power in the Feathered Dzi Bead. In the future, when your foundation is solid and you continue to practice, your strength will increase by leaps and bounds."
"Besides, I have recovered 30% of my energy, and I want to give you a surprise!"
Hearing Zangtian's voice, Ji Tianxing could sense that his consciousness had a subtle mental connection with Zangtian.
In this way, his consciousness can contact Zangtian at any time without entering the Sword God's Tomb.
He read the sound transmission with his heart and asked Zangtian in his mind: "What's the surprise?"
Zangtian's majestic voice, full of vicissitudes of life, sounded in his mind: "Look carefully at your right palm."
Hearing these words, Ji Tianxing lowered his head subconsciously and stared at the palm of his right hand.
I saw that a black hole the size of an egg appeared out of thin air in the center of his right palm, which was crystal clear and shiny like jade!
In the dark and deep black hole, there is a bottomless vortex, like an abyss.
If you stare at the black hole for a few more times, it feels like your mind will be swallowed by the black hole, and your consciousness will become blurred and dizzy.
Ji Tianxing could clearly sense that the black hole in his palm was connected to the Sky-Bearing Sword Monument in the Tomb of the Sword God.
If he is fighting a strong enemy and punches it out with one palm, the black hole will swallow the opponent's spiritual energy or skill and transport it to the Sky-Bearing Sword Monument to replenish the power of Zang Tian.
Or, the Babel Sword Monument releases a devastating attack, passing through the black hole in his palm, killing all powerful enemies!
Understanding this, Ji Tianxing showed a satisfied smile on his face.
"Very good! This way, I can control the black hole as I wish, and I will have another special skill!"
Zangtian also said with a pleased tone: "Ji Tianxing, we had an agreement back then. I would help you improve your strength, and you would help me regain my strength."
"Your destiny and mine are one. We will both prosper and suffer."
"Now that I have swallowed the Feathered Dzi Bead, my skill and vitality have been restored to 30%, which can greatly increase your combat effectiveness. Even if you face the strong Tianyuan, I can ensure that you are invincible."
Ji Tianxing couldn't help but frown and asked in confusion: "Zangtian, the Feathered Dzi Bead contains the four hundred years of Qingtian's skill. How can I help you restore your three successful powers?"
Zangtian snorted in an arrogant tone and said: "I am the soul of the divine sword. In its heyday, its power can shake the heaven and the earth and shatter the sun, moon and stars."
"It's just a lifetime of skills from a Tianyuan warrior. It's already a miracle that my skills can be restored to 30%!"
"That's it." Ji Tianxing nodded slightly, his heart full of expectation and yearning for the power of 'shaking the heaven and earth, shattering the sun, moon and stars'.
After a moment of silence, he asked again: "Zangtian, why is the Tianyuan realm called the limit of heaven and man, the biggest shackle of martial arts?"
"What is the realm above the Tianyuan realm?"
Zangtian said in a solemn tone: "For Tianyuan realm warriors, their physical bodies and martial arts techniques have reached their limits. This is the end of martial arts."
"Even so, Tianyuan realm warriors only have a lifespan of three to five hundred years, and they will die when their lifespan is up. If their physical body is destroyed, they will die immediately."
"Then have you ever imagined what a warrior should practice next when his physical body reaches its limit?"
"Why can those strong men who have surpassed the Tianyuan realm have a lifespan of thousands of years? Even if their bodies are destroyed, they can still retain a trace of their souls and continue to live on?"
After listening to Zangtian's explanation, Ji Tianxing felt enlightened and enlightened.
The doubts and conjectures that had been lingering in his mind immediately disappeared and became suddenly enlightened.
"So, the realm above the Tianyuan realm is to cultivate the soul?!"
"That's right." Zang Tian said in a solemn tone: "However, you are only at the eighth level of the Yuan Dan Realm, and have not even reached the Tian Yuan Realm. It is too far to think about this."
After saying that, Zangtian stopped making any sound and continued to sleep and practice.
Ji Tianxing retracted his right palm, hiding the black hole in his palm, and began to practice exercises to consolidate the foundation of martial arts.
…
To the east of Yanling City, the Wuyue Mountains are six hundred miles away.
A pitch-black demonic mist and a gray-white ghost mist flew at high speed among the mountains.
After a moment, two thick masses of fog fell outside the temporary magic cave, revealing two figures.
These two people were the Blood Demon King, who was more than ten feet tall, and the Ghost Granny, who was as skinny as a monkey.
The two of them stood outside the magic cave, frowning as they looked at the cave entrance, which had mostly collapsed and was filled with rubble. Their expressions immediately darkened.
The Blood Demon King stared at the entrance of the cave with cold eyes and said in a solemn tone: "The entrance of the cave collapsed, and the defensive formation set up by this king was also destroyed!"
"How could this happen? Was there a fight in the cave?"
Granny Ghost stretched out her dove-headed walking stick, pointed at the mountain body of a thousand-foot high mountain, and said in a cold voice: "The entire mountain peak has been broken into many ravines, and countless earthworks and boulders have collapsed."
"Only the strong ones in the Tianyuan realm can cause such terrifying destructive power!"
The Blood Demon King knitted his brows together and said in a deep voice, "Did Chu Tiansheng or Xiang Wuji find this place?"
"Let's go in and take a look!"
After saying that, the Blood Demon King and Granny Ghost turned into magic mist, passed through the narrow entrance, and entered the magic cave.
After the two people carefully inspected the magic cave, they found that most of the magic cave collapsed and there were piles of rubble and earth everywhere.
Traces of blood flames, soul fire and some kind of real fire were left everywhere in the cave, but there were only no traces of the high priest and Ji Tianxing.
In the end, it was Granny Ghost who used her secret technique to find a pinch of black ash among the ruins of earth and rocks.
After careful identification, the Blood Demon King determined that it was the ashes of the high priest.
This result made the Blood Demon King's face turn dark with anger and his body trembled.
He clenched his fists loudly, and roared with scarlet eyes: "Damn bastard! The high priest is dead, and Ji Tianxing has escaped!"
"Beasts of Qingtian Sect! I will never let you go!"
Ghost Granny's eyes flashed with ghostly fire, and she said in a low tone: "Blood Demon King, now all the demon generals and masters under your command are dead."
"With only the two of us left, it might be a bit unrealistic to want to kill the Qingtian Sect and rescue the sealed Demon Emperor!"
The Blood Demon King took a few deep breaths, suppressed his rage, and said in a cold voice: "That's right! So, I decided to go back to the Blood Demon Tribe and summon the elite warriors of my Blood Demon Tribe!"
"Grandma Ghost, it's time for you to go to Ten Thousand Souls Cliff to summon the army of sleeping ghosts there."
"Soon, we will destroy the Qingtian Sect in one fell swoop!"
"Okay!" Granny Ghost thought about it for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Afterwards, the two people left the collapsed magic cave, turned into magic mist and ghost mist, and quickly disappeared into the sky.
