One day passed.
Ling Han suddenly opened his eyes, a happy smile appearing at the corner of his lips. He unsheathed his sword and lowered his sword at the slash in his long left hand.
If anyone saw such a thing, they would definitely think he did a self-mutilation, but after a while more, they would definitely think he did, they would definitely be surprised to the point that their eyeballs were in danger of coming out of their heads, as this Slash found his hand, it left no scratches on his skin. The only proof of what he had done was a white line in his hand.
'Indeed, my defense has increased by a considerable amount, Ling Han nodded. Although he had yet to pour Origin Power into the attack right now, he had not used Origin Power to strengthen his defenses either. He fully relies on his physical innate defense – without any external help.
He increased the attack power, and simultaneously started circulating the Unbreakable Heaven Scroll.
The sword once again slashed in a slash, and this time it produced a wound in his hand. But something even stranger appeared. Not a single drop of blood flowed from this wound.
'Haha, so this is the first layer of the Unbreakable Heaven Scroll, the Tier of the Dead Tree! The physical body would become like a dead tree, and even after being struck by a sword, the body would not bleed, or the essential life force would not be damaged! ' The smile on Ling Han's face became wider. The gap he himself created healed at an extremely fast speed and quickly disappeared. There was not even a sign left behind. This is an incredible achievement. "And this is just a Dead Tree Body!"
Ling Han could not help feeling a little sad. Once he reached the Rock Cliff Tier and formed the Body of Rock Cliff, then his skin would be as strong as a rock. Even a heavy strike would not injure him in the slightest as his defense would once again be upgraded to a new level. The Tier of the Iron Sheet would become even more extraordinary, and its strength would become even more tyrannical.
But when he finally reached Diamond Tier, it would be a fundamental change. Even a lost limb could grow back, and his life force would be so powerful that it practically surpassed a reasonable limit.
'According to the scroll, I was able to condense a drop of indestructible True Fluid once I reached the Dead Tree Tier. In the future, no matter how heavy of an injury I suffer, as long as I repair this indestructible True Fluid, it will heal instantly.
Scroll Heaven Can't Destroy. . . It does indeed live up to its name! '
Ling Han did not immediately begin to condense the Unbreakable True Fluid. This is a very time-consuming process, and not something that can be completed successfully in a short period of time.
'Haha, once I have formed the Body of the Dead Tree, my last and only weakness will be eliminated!' Ling Han was overjoyed.
In this world, there were certain races that were strong from birth. One example was the Four Winds Race, which had a jaw-dropping speed of – even their members who were only at the Element Gathering Tier could be considered equivalent to a Tier Gushing Spring. Another example was the Sword-Wielding Race, whose arms could turn into sharp blades. The higher their cultivation level was, the sharper and sturdier their sword arms were.
An even stronger example was the Wild Thunder Race. Their members were born with lightning around their bodies, and thus their attacks were extremely powerful.
It is labeled as a special body constitution.
Whether in his last life or in his current life, Ling Han did not possess such a special constitution, but the cultivation of the indestructible Heaven Scroll allowed him to obtain it. This was practically unimaginable, having broken the iron-clad rule of nature!
'The Body of Dead Tree can only be compared to a lower-grade special constitution; but if I really manage to form a Diamond Body, it is, then what kind of race could actually be compared to this kind of special physical constitution?
In this life, I was destined to become invincible, to walk a path no one had ever walked before, to destroy nothingness and become a god! '
Ling Han gathered his lost thoughts and glanced at Liu Dong and the others. The essence of the Dragon Snake bone marrow was drained very quickly. If it still could not be digested in one full day and night, then there would only be less than a tenth of the nutrients in it. Thus, they would practically not get much benefit at all.
Indeed, not long after, Liu Yu Tong and the others completed their refinement process, and stood up one by one.
They did not cultivate the Unbreakable Heaven Scroll, so naturally, it would be impossible to completely refine all the essences of the bone marrow; still, they all seemed to be extremely happy, after all, because they have some benefits.
"Sister Ling, there are about ten days left before the new year, so we should go back."
"After the new year, let's meet again in Da Yuan City."
"Good bye!"
The five of them bid farewell to Ling Han and Liu Yu Tong. Although Chen Peng Ju seemed to have something that he was hesitant to say. In the end, he still did not say a word and, with Li Hao and his group, walked further and further into the distance.
Ling Han looked at Liu Yu Tong and said, "How are you, how are your benefits?"
Demonic ferocious beasts that had the slightest bit of king lineage were too rare, but the benefits they promised were also immense. This was also why Ling Han directly ran here after he reached the peak period of the first layer of the Element Gathering Tier. If he managed to obtain these benefits, then his true strength would naturally increase enormously, and the chances of victory in the Da Yuan Tournament at the start of the year would also increase dramatically.
Even for the Liu Clan who was considered to be one of the most powerful Great Clans of the Rain Country, they still might not be able to obtain the demonic beasts that possessed the king's bloodline. This kind of thing completely depends on fate and wealth.
Ling Han took the second Origin Transcending Pill and continued cultivating. He also gave Li Hao two pills to help this young sword holder. However, the extent to which Li Hao's future achievements would reach. .which still depended on his own potential and willingness to work hard.
After he had refined this Origin Transcending Pill, he had also reached the peak period of the third tier Tier Element Gathering. However, the effects of the Origin Transcending Pill also ended here. It could not help him to advance any further than this.
Normally, the higher one's cultivation level was, the fewer pills one could actually help one increase their cultivation level. For example, for a Tier Element Gathering, a martial artist between the fourth and sixth layers was required to take out a "Pill Revolving Origin". However, this required a core within the demon beast kings that were at the Semi Gushing Level. [1]
Using the inner core of a king in the Gushing Spring Tier to concoct pills for a martial artist in the Element Gathering Tier was simply too much.
He still had six Origin Transcending Pills in his possession. He decided to hand them over to Ling Dong Xing in their home, and allow him to reward them to an extremely talented clan within the clan.
"Let's go home too!" Ling Han said to Liu Yu Tong.
"Ein!" Liu Yu Tong respected him with a dazzling smile. Even he himself did not realize that his cold demeanor was slowly melting in front of Ling Han.
The two left the Seven Wind Mountains and returned to the inn where they were keeping horses. After paying the fee, they urged their horses on their way back towards Gray Cloud Town.
They ride during the day and rest at night. Ling Han took advantage of this time to begin condensing the Unbreakable True Fluid and, after two days, formed a drop about the size of a grain of rice. Theoretically, the drop should reach the size of the bean in order to be considered successfully condensed and have the greatest effect, but it can still be used now – although the effect is clearly much, much weaker.
'It looks like I need about ten days to condense one drop. However, the Da Yuan Tournament is also at the beginning of next year, so there will be enough time. This will be one of my trump cards. '
Layer seven days, they had returned to Gray Cloud Town, and Ling Han had also broken through to the fourth layer of the Element Gathering Tier. For him, it's really not that difficult. At this time, there are only about three days before the end of the year, and almost all houses are decorated with lanterns and colored banners in preparation for celebrating the new year.
The Ling Clan Residence Clan was also filled with an air of celebration. Since Ling Zhong Kuan had died, the Ling Clan was now completely under Ling Dong Xing's control. Everyone is united, giving a new appearance.
"Young Master Han!"
"Young Master Han!"
When Ling Han passed by, all the servants he met greeted him respectfully. This young man who was about to turn seventeen would become the backbone of the Ling Clan's future, and no one dared to underestimate him anymore.
"Haner, you're back!" Ling Dong Xing revealed an expression of relief, which quickly turned into shock, and said, "Your cultivation level seems to have increased enormously again!"
"The Fourth Layer of Element Collection Level!" Ling Han said with a smile.
Ling Dong Xing's expression became extremely colorful, although he wasn't surprised this time. Finally, he finally smiled widely which was filled with satisfaction.
His son is very talented – this is something he already knows. In the future, he only needed to feel grateful with Ling Han's continuous progress and that was enough.
As a parent, isn't this the greatest source of pride?
After this, the only major event left is the celebration of the new year.
However Ling Han did not relax, and continued to work hard to cultivate every day. He concocted some "Spirit Gatherer Pill" for himself. This pill allowed him to increase his cultivation rate, and while the help he provided was not much, every bit counted.
Liu Yu Tong also displayed a strong talent in sword arts, and in a short period of over ten days, actually managed to form another flash of Sword Qi.
