Chapter 140: Nine Dragons Protecting the Body

  Nine Dragons Protect the Body

  Watching the Seventh Thunder Sword transform successfully, Zhou Yuan's heart was overjoyed. Although he had not obtained an attacking Heaven-grade artifact before, which meant that there was no suitable artifact in his hand, now all regrets were gone.

  With the existence of the Seven Thunder Sword, Zhou Yuan can continuously strengthen it, enhancing his abilities and realm. It is believed that soon after, Zhou Yuan will be able to forge a Heaven-grade artifact that completely belongs to him.

  A cultivator of the Mortal Realm who can possess a Heaven-grade artifact, just imagine if this news were to be leaked out, what kind of shock it would bring.

  At that time, Zhou Yuan will definitely become a legendary figure in the entire True Martial Academy. With his current strength, among the disciples, except for those in the Xianyao realm who have achieved spiritual fusion and are stronger than him, he is already invincible against those below that realm. As long as he breaks through to the Lingkong Xutu realm, his yuan force will become even more majestic, and his physical functions, including his internal organs, will be greatly enhanced. Furthermore, with the possession of a heavenly artifact, he will be able to challenge for the position of first among the disciples.

  Zhou Yuanping calmed his excited mood and continued to absorb the yuan energy. The War God's Magic Classic did not disappoint as the highest law of the Zhou family, even the mysterious people from the underworld wanted to obtain this heaven-defying classic.

  The War God's Scripture, once activated, absorbs the primordial energy at an alarming rate, almost to the point of being terrifying. Zhou Yuan could feel his internal yuan power increasing at an incredible speed, and within a short period of time, no more than an hour, he would be able to reach saturation, allowing him to smoothly break through to the Ling Kong Virtual Crossing realm.

  Humm...

  At this moment, Feng Ao Xue beside him had undergone a transformation. Her body emitted countless rays of light, and a perfectly round golden elixir was rotating on her forehead, emitting an aura that was much more intense than that of an ordinary Golden Elixir Realm cultivator.

  It was not for anything else, but because Zhou Yuan had already prepared the method of Town Lock Golden Elixir before coming. It was a method of Town Lock Golden Elixir with more than 70 strokes of talismans. After carefully weighing Feng Ao Xue's qualifications, Zhou Yuan felt that she could only use the method of Town Lock Golden Elixir with more than 70 strokes of talismans at most. This was already her limit. If she rashly upgraded, it would only harm her. After all, if she didn't have enough spiritual power to condense stroke after stroke of talismans, and ultimately failed, it would lead to a massive explosion of the Golden Elixir, which would put her life in danger.

  Actually, having seventy or so talismans is already quite good. Among the Golden Elixir realm's mages, it's considered to be among the top. Only one in ten of the Golden Elixir realm's mages can possess seventy or so talismans that can suppress the Golden Elixir.

  After all, a heaven-defying character like Zhou Yuan only appears once every thousand years or so. The Golden Elixir of the Great Void Sage had only about fifty or so talismans sealing it.

  Very soon, Feng Ao Xue condensed seventy Dao characters, all of which were added to the Golden Elixir, locking it in place. Then, with one move, she took it into the Heavenly Gate, and this time she completely broke through to the Golden Elixir realm. In the True Martial Academy, she was considered to have some real power.

  Zhou Yuan took a look at Feng Xue and found that her strength had increased by more than five times. If she were to use the Gale Needle, it would be even harder for Ling Kong's Void Crossing realm master to catch her than climbing to the sky. Now Zhou Yuan was even more at ease.

  No wonder some people say that the more worries you have, the more your heart cannot be calm. Zhou Yuan likes Feng Ao Xue, so he has worries and his heart is also worried. This is not good for his cultivation and breaking through the boundary. So now everything is going in a favorable direction. Feng Ao Xue not only obtained the heavenly artifact Difei Jian, but also broke through to the Golden Dan realm, which means he now has enough capital.

  Zhou Yuan's worries also gradually subsided to a certain extent.

  Zhou Yuan looked at Feng Xue with encouragement, and the two once again entered a state of cultivation.

  Feng Ao Xue had just broken through to the Golden Elixir realm and needed a large amount of yuanqi to consolidate his cultivation. This cave was filled with yuan stones, and there were many high-quality ones among them. The flowing yuanqi was extremely dense, making it an ideal place for cultivation and consolidating his strength.

  Zhou Yuan was also unwilling to fall behind. As soon as his Battle God Scripture was activated, the primordial energy surged into his body like a burst dam of floodwater.

  His body's yuanqi was also growing rapidly.

  Before long, two hours passed and Zhou Yuan's yuan energy finally reached a saturated state. At this point, his strength was once again elevated to the pinnacle of the Killing Origin Stage. With the Yuan Energy Shocking the Air method, he could break through to the Void Crossing stage at any time.

  Zhou Yuan looked at Feng Ao Xue and found that she had also stopped, obviously having reached a state of fullness in her cultivation, reaching the peak of the Golden Core realm. Of course, at this time, she still couldn't directly attack and break through the Killing Life Calamity realm. Her accumulation was not yet sufficient, and if she rashly attempted to break through, it would only trigger the Killing Life Calamity, ultimately completely destroying her.

  Accumulating magnificence is not just about your body's primordial energy reaching a state of saturation, but rather it encompasses all aspects. For example, Zhou Yuan's primordial energy is magnificent, but that's only one aspect. Other aspects, such as mastery of natural laws, the power of the Heavenly Cycle of Life and Death, and the refinement of the Golden Elixir of the King's Way, must be combined to truly accumulate magnificence, ultimately helping Zhou Yuan break through to the realm of killing with a single blow.

  Moreover, because Zhou Yuan's accumulation was truly too magnificent, after he broke through to the Killing Life Boundary realm, the strength he possessed would be so terrifying that he could easily defeat a Void Cultivator like Ling Kong.

  Feng Ao Xue has now only met the first requirement for breaking through the killing calamity boundary, her yuanqi is full and abundant, but in other aspects, she still lacks a lot. Moreover, due to the reason that her boundary was promoted too quickly, her foundation is not stable. Not to mention her, even someone as strong as Zhou Yuan, who defies the heavens, would not be able to continuously break through two boundaries, which would have no benefits for oneself.

  After all, after reaching a certain level of realm, it is also necessary to spend some time on this level of realm, and the emotions are good. This has a crucial role in impacting higher levels in the future. Because the more you understand at each level of realm, the closer you will be to the secrets of the heavenly law, and your future achievements will also be higher.

  Zhou Yuan and Feng Ao Xue stopped at the same time, on the other side, the masked man and the female law enforcement officer also stopped, the four of them looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.

  The Seventh Thunder Sword, however, was still happily absorbing the massive amount of yuan energy to continuously repair its injuries. Zhou Yuan took a look and found that this place was simply a paradise for the Seventh Thunder Sword. After several hours of absorption and repair, the Seventh Thunder Sword's strength had recovered significantly and had reached the level of the Purple Thunder Knife, entering the realm of a top-grade artifact.

  Moreover, it was advancing towards the speed of a Heaven-grade artifact at an extremely fast pace. Zhou Yuan roughly estimated that after absorbing for several more hours, the Seven Thunder Sword would be able to enter the realm of a Heaven-grade artifact.

  "Seven Thunder Sword, I'll help you a bit, let you quickly break through to the realm of Heaven-level artifacts. Now I have too many opponents, my reputation is spreading, and there are unfavorable factors everywhere. I urgently need a Heaven-level artifact to guard myself." Zhou Yuan thought secretly, at the same time, he gathered the Purple Thunder Knife from the Heavenly Gate and threw it towards the Seven Thunder Sword.

  "Ancestors, don't blame me. The Purple Thunder Knife is formidable, but after all, it's just a terrestrial-grade artifact and can't be considered the sacred instrument of my Zhou family. Later, when I, Zhou Yuan, make our family prosper and grow stronger, I will definitely use a holy-grade artifact, or even a divine-grade one, as the true sacred instrument of my Zhou family. For now, I'll just use the Purple Thunder Knife first."

  Zhou Yuan wanted to merge the Violet Lightning Knife into the Seven Thunder Sword, allowing the Seven Thunder Sword to absorb all of the Violet Lightning Knife's power. This would help the Seven Thunder Sword break through to the Heaven rank artifact boundary. Even if it wasn't successful, it could still help the Seven Thunder Sword increase its strength by a large margin, and bring it closer to the Heaven rank artifact boundary.

  Bang!!!

  Feeling Zhou Yuan's intention, the Seven Thunder Sword suddenly rose up and killed the Purple Thunder Knife with a single sword strike. Although both were earth-grade artifacts, the Seven Thunder Sword was originally stronger and was once a famous artifact in the world. Although Zhou Yuan didn't know what realm it specifically belonged to, he thought that at the very least, it wouldn't be lower than the Sacred Artifact realm.

  Therefore, the Seven Thunder Sword killed with one sword on the Purple Thunder Knife, and the latter immediately couldn't withstand it, being shattered into powder. The entire body of the Purple Thunder Knife flowed into the Seven Thunder Sword, and its vitality was completely absorbed by the Seven Thunder Sword.

  A palm-sized thin paper slipped out of the Purple Thunder Knife, Zhou Yuan reached out to catch it, and saw a line of small words - Chasing Star Broken Moon, merge with Holy Body Protection to cultivate into Nine Dragon Protection Technique!!!

  Zhou Yuan was shocked in his heart, he knew that Chasing Star and Breaking Moon were the magic of Purple Thunder Knife itself, while Sacred Body Protection was a built-in magic of Sacred Sound Clothes. He had never thought that these two magics could be completely merged to create an even more powerful Nine Dragon Protection Technique.
