Talisman Emperor
Chapter 103 – Starsoul Meteorite
The wind howled loudly and the sandstorm raged.
The Ocean Desert, which stretched as far as the eye could see, was like a god with an irritable temper, venting anger and resentment in a mischievous manner. It was filled with the power of boundless destruction.
This place contained mysterious ruins that had been left behind since ancient times, terrible restrictions that caused Rebirth Realm cultivators to enter but never return, and even spatial tears that engulfed everything.
This place is called the land of death!
However, today a young man quickly ran in it like a gust of wind.
Astonishingly, a strong wind that was enough to tear anything apart seemed forever unable to touch his body; wherever he passed by, no matter how hard and violent the wind was, it seemed forever unable to touch his body; wherever he passed by, no matter how hard and violent the wind was, it was as if the wind recognized one of its own kind. As his partner had seen, it would gently avoid him and open up enough space for him to pass through.
That scene was very strange.
When faced with a strong wind that roared like a dragon, even a Rebirth Realm cultivator had to approach him carefully, though, yet this young man looked as if he was walking into his own backyard and walking leisurely. If this scene was seen by an outsider, they would definitely stare agapely.
Unfortunately, only he was in this land of death right now.
This person was naturally Chen Xi. He who had mastered the complete Wind Dao Insight looked as if he saw a strand of breeze when faced with a strong wind, and he really didn't worry that something would happen to himself.
This was the power of Dao Insight.
But there is sand in the wind. The sand and dust were carried away by the strong wind and was like an explosive rain of swords erupting, and they had a sharp and terrifying penetrating power. Chen Xi naturally did not dare to fight them and did not even dare to fly in the air, so she could only rely on the strength of the wind to run wildly.
"Right now, my True Essence has dried up, but fortunately, my body is strong. As of now, I have run for almost 1,500 km. If those six people were chasing me, they might have been chasing me for a long time. '' Chen Xi quickly mused as she ran wildly. Although he was not afraid of the strong winds around him, the Ocean Desert contained many restrictions, ruins, and frightening and dangerous spatial tears. He did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
Just now, he saw a spatial tear that was 3 km long, shaped like a long and narrow curved blade. The inside of the jet-black spatial tear was also jet-black, black to the point of causing one's heart to palpitate; as long as anything came within 5 km of it, it would be swallowed completely by the spatial tear. There was no sound and no struggle; it was silent, yet frightening.
"It won't work, if I continue like this, there will definitely be a time when my physical strength is completely exhausted. I must find a safe place to replenish my True Essence and recover my strength .. Hmm? Whatisit? "Chen Xi's gaze unintentionally swept over and she suddenly realized that a huge black shadow had appeared very far in the distance of the undulating sand. The shadow was 300m tall and stood upright motionlessly, seemingly not a living being.
When he approached to look at it, it was actually a pitch-black inscription that looked like a sword piercing through the sky. Even under the corrosion of the hard sand, the surface of the inscription was still smooth and complete, and it was engulfed by a cold light.
"Murveyard Sword!" Chen Xi noticed the two blood red words on the inscription. The writing was not restricted with a powerful, yet gentle punch, and a terrifying and sharp qi assaulted his face.
Hissing!
Chen Xi felt his entire body tremble. It was as if his bones were pierced by needles and his entire body turned cold. The myriad of sharp swords that were waving crazily even appeared within the sea of his consciousness, causing the blood in his heart to surge when he saw the dancing star before his eyes, and he nearly spat out blood. He hurriedly turned his eyes away and did not dare to glance anymore.
"This writing contains the terrifying true essence of the Dao Sword. Even though it was just a mere strand, it was filled with a peerless spirit to dominate and annihilate the entire world. I wonder which expert left this inscription, because it is even a hundred times more terrifying than the sword force on the records in the immortal sword residence! "Chen Xi was greatly astonished in her heart. He really could not imagine the cultivation level of the person who had this level of sword skill had reached.
Thumping!
Chen Xi sat in front of the inscription, when she realized that as long as the strong winds and sand approached within 30m of the inscription, they would be crushed to disperse by a formless force. Hiding here just happened to allow him to dodge the sandstorm attack.
"I wonder why this Sword Grave appeared here …? Never mind, I will recover my True Essence first if I encounter any other unexpected event, I will have the strength to endure it. '' Chen Xi breathed heavily for a moment before sitting cross-legged, then she pulled out the octagonal holding bottle and took a deep breath, causing a strand of spirit liquid to come out of the bottle.
Swish!
Chen Xi circulated the Ice Crane Technique, and the huge lake in his purple palace that had long since dried up began to absorb the spirit liquid flowing into his body.
The octagonal confinement bottle had already been refilled by 1.5 million kg of spirit liquid. This spirit liquid was the one he obtained by selling spirit materials in the Misty City Heaven Treasure Pavilion. In the Ocean Desert whose spirit energy had dried up, he did not have to worry about the matter of insufficient spirit energy.
Day passed.
Chen Xi woke up from her meditation, then opened her mouth and sighed. The strong and viscous airflow strands shot out like arrows, not spreading for a long time. Clearly, throughout this night of bitter cultivation, his strength had increased.
"In order to obtain the so-called treasure sword dwelling place, Su Dingyi's group would definitely not easily let me go. Since they did not enter the Ocean Desert, then I guess they were waiting for me outside. "Chen Xi stood up and stretched her limbs, then frowned. “If it's like this, I can only hide here unless I have the power to exterminate the six of them. ”
"Hmm? Whatisthis? '' Chen Xi finally noticed the many pitch-black stones scattered on the ground. They were about the size of a fingernail and were entirely smooth, filled with sparkling spots. They were very similar to jade and black agate.
He bowed, intending to take one, when shocking him, as soon as his finger touched the black-coloured stone, a thread of sharp aura instantly entered his skin. It was as if he was struck by lightning, causing his entire body to tremble.
"This is .." Chen Xi's eyes opened wide as a wisp of pleasant surprise gradually revealed on his face, and he couldn't help but his voice began to tremble. "This is actually a Starsoul Meteorite!"
The Universe Starslayer Cultivated Star Bodybuilding Art Chen Xi absorbed the extremely bad qi from the stars to temper and refine the body, and it was already up to the perfection stage of the Innate Realm, which was already at its peak, it only lacked one step to advance to the Violet Palace Realm.
However, this move was like a separation between humans and the gods. According to Ji Yu, this move was like a natural abyss. Without the bitter cultivation and accumulation of the previous stage, and without a strand of illusory breakthrough opportunities, he would absolutely be unable to touch the edge of the Violet Palace Realm.
At this moment, as far as Chen Xi was concerned, the appearance of the Starsoul Meteorite was undoubtedly a breakthrough opportunity for his body refinement to advance into the Violet Palace Realm!
Swish! Swish!
Chen Xi's hands were like spades that started digging, and the Starsoul Meteorites that were completely round and covered in shiny light gathered together one after another.
Chen Xi stopped digging after the time for the entire incense stick to burn had passed, whereas beside him, the Starsoul Meteorite which was the size of a fingernail was stacked into 1. It is 2m high and 1m wide, and a rough estimate would probably put them at least 5,000!
“Inti stars! All of this was the essence of the stars, and one Starsoul Meteorite was enough to match the terrifying qi of the stars I absorbed from one month of bitter cultivation! ”
"After the refinement of my body penetrates into the Violet Palace Realm, I will be able to condense the shaman sign and convert the Shaman Energy. Most importantly, I will be able to open the restrictions on where to stay and go inside to meet Senior Ji Yu! ”The jade pendant inside the flesh in his palm was covered in a layer of restriction. If he wanted to enter the residence, then he would have to reach the Violet Realm Palace in both body repair and qi repair.
Similarly, it was the lowest requirement to perform the first level of Heavenpeak of Trails.
"Nobody bothers me here, and the sandstorm cannot strike. This is an amazing place to cultivate. I will cultivate the repair of my body to the Violet Palace Realm here, then enter the residence to meet Senior Ji Yu. If I can pass the first level of Heavenpeak of Trails, I guess I will be able to obtain various unimaginable advantages and my strength will definitely increase! "Chen Xi was very excited. With a swing of his sleeves, the Starsoul Meteorite on the ground was all stored in his storage ring, then he sat cross-legged with the Starsoul Meteorite held between his palms as he closed his eyes and circulated the Universe Starslayer Bodyforging Arts.
It's thundering!
The cold and sharp star qi from the stars was like a liquid river that rumbled as it flowed into his blood and flesh. It was like a myriad of ferocious horns had smashed into him, and an enormous tearing force was hitting his flesh, blood, and skin fiercely. His muscles, which were already condensed and strong, suddenly shook and shrank as he crazily digested this terrifying energy.
At the same time, a hint of energy from the stars fused into his blood, flesh, skin, and tendons, causing them to be suffused with a lustrous and cold luster. They looked like porcelain that had been forged in a furnace for a long time, and gradually became smooth and tough.
While on Chen Xi's back, a faint strand of mark lines appeared. They were vague and extremely blurry, appearing and disappearing on his back, and they looked extremely mysterious.
Forward in body refinement to the Violet Palace Realm had to go through many hardships and dangers, and it was one in a million. However, as long as one passed this gate, then many shaman marks would condense on the skin of the entire body. This quack marking condensed into various different shaman marking patterns depending on the cultivation technique.
For example, some body distillers that use fire at the core of the earth to dampen the body will have signs of shamans forming a pattern of flames, he said, and he was able to absorb fire qi which was extremely dangerous to be converted into shaman energy within the body.
Chen Xi flung his body with a terrifying qi from the stars in the universe. As long as he advanced to the Violet Palace Realm, the shaman diagram's star sign would condense on his skin, turning the extremely bad qi of the stars into shamanic energy; it was extremely profound.
The Violet Palace Realm of body refinement was also divided into nine levels. Condensing one star diagram the shaman sign would represent the 1st star of the Violet Palace Realm, and condensing the nine star diagram would represent the 9th star of the Realm Palace Realm. Once he reached this realm, he would be able to open the shaman sign gap and fill into the Golden Hall Realm.
However, for Chen Xi right now, all he needed was to step first into the Violet Palace Realm of the Innate Realm. For the qi distiller, the development of the violet palace was the establishment of the foundation of the Grand Dao, while for the body distiller, progress to the Violet Palace Realm meant building the foundation for the body to become heavenly. Both of them each had their own merits, yet they both pointed directly at the Grand Dao and achieved the same goal with different methods.
Chen Xi sat quietly like this, clear of what was happening both internally and externally because both internally and externally were cooperating with each other and she was completely unaware of the passage of time.
A month goes by like this.
Cultivating continuously for an entire month caused Chen Xi's blood, flesh, and skin strength to become increasingly dense, and increasingly agile. The tendon is like jade. His flesh and blood condensed, becoming extremely clear as a misty and cold glint flowed within. But he was unable to take the final step and made the shaman marks on his back, which became clearer and clearer, condensing together and forming a star diagram pattern.
It seemed like he could not open the indistinct window.
However, he was not worried. Every time he cultivated to the point where his mood became restless, he would stop circulating his cultivation method and stand up. Then, he would walk around the Sword Tomb inscription and examine the towering monument nearly 300 meters tall.
This inscription material was neither gold nor iron, neither jade nor wood; its surface was smooth and pitch-black, and it emitted a strange energy that blocked the attacks of the sandstorms and the surrounding strong winds, makes it seem very mysterious.
Chen Xi made use of her spare time to examine the two big words with a strong, yet gentle sweep on the inscription. Each time, he would only look at it for a while, yet he could still gradually understand a few things.
These two large words contained the supreme and terrifying true essence of the Sword Dao. Although it was just a mere strand of Dao Sword aura, it caused Chen Xi to feel as if it was a vast ocean containing boundless depths hidden within it. It allowed him to expand his field of vision, and a feeling of respect appeared involuntarily.
Another month passed.
That day, Chen Xi tried to understand the true essence strand of the Dao Sword when a shivering wave suddenly struck his heart. He vaguely seemed to have grasped a strand of opportunity to break through, and this feeling grew increasingly stronger.
Hu!
Chen Xi took a deep breath and did not hesitate anymore to sit cross-legged before holding the Starsoul Meteorite in each hand and circulating her cultivation technique.
