Towards Eternity
Ch 361 Village Fog (II)
Inside his room, Weng Lou and Weng Ying Luan were busy digesting the efficacy of the pill that a moment ago they swallowed.
These pills were able to make their practice level rise, but not in such an incredible speed as they ate when they were in Yulong City.
Although it seems slow, but the increase caused by this pill actually helps to stabilize the strength of those who have just increased.
Both are not in a hurry because they still have three weeks more until the Free Martial Tournament is held. They would have had time to ascend to the realm of Soul Unification if they could continue to regularly practice as they are today.
But is indeed ascending to the realm of Soul Unification as easy as the two of them thought? The answer is no.
A Soul that was purified at the Soul Cleansing realm would perform unification on its own within a certain span of time when one had been at the peak stage 9 Soul Cleansing realm.
Usually people will take at most a year, and the shortest may be just a few days. This was due to their souls not being overly cleansed at the time of being in the Soul Cleansing realm.
That's why when in the realm of Soul Cleansing, a Martial Practitioner must be serious in cleansing his soul, rarely anyone uses the means by using pills like Weng Lou and the others, such as, because the results of soul cleansing obtained are not always maximum.
After almost an hour of training, Weng Lou opened his eyes and stood up, before how long Weng Ying Luan also opened her eyes and stood up from her place.
"Yaaa, just rise to the peak 5th stage." Weng Lou said as he stretched his body.
Weng Ying Luan only silently heard that and intended to get out of the room, but was immediately restrained by Weng Lou.
"Don't try to leave, tell me the level of your practice" said Weng Lou who had stood straight back and looked at Weng Ying Luan meaningfully.
Weng Ying Luan who clicked her tongue heard Weng Lou's words and sighed.
"Early stage 7, a little more rising to intermediate stage 7," he replied as he flipped his body back and immediately exited the room.
As soon as Weng Ying Luan left, Weng Lou could only scratch the back of his head which did not itch. Though it was already very good according to him Weng Ying Luan was able to ascend to the early stage 7 Soul Cleansing realm so quickly.
Not wanting to take a headache, Weng Lou also swung his hand once and pulled out a pair of hammers that looked familiar. It was a hammer that Kun Ling had used to forge weapons, which weighed about several tens of times heavier than the hammer that was given to her while still practicing forging with her.
Weng Lou felt his physical strength needed to be enhanced even further as this was one of his hallmarks when fighting against those who were much stronger than him.
Slowly, he raised the two hammers each in his right and left hands slowly.
Taking a deep breath, Weng Lou began to swing the hammer in his right hand slowly, and continued with his left hand. Little by little he raised the tempo of his swing and did not feel the swing he was doing was like a forging real. Without her noticing, a small smile adorned her face and continued to swing by swing in turn.
Weng Lou continued to swing his two hammers until his entire body was moistened by his sweat. Half an hour later, Weng Lou stopped swinging his hand, and re-entered his two spikes into his storage room.
The air around it feels cold and seems a little cold. Weng Lou closed his eyes and then took a deep breath. He felt the air circulation that was happening to his body and recalled the process inside his head then. After holding his breath for ten seconds, he threw his breath back into deep breathing.
He continued to do that until he felt that his entire body had cooled down and took a deep breath.
"My body feels so much better. At least my physical strength is approaching those at peak stage 8. With the help of my reliable use of Qi, it should be that the person who is at the 9th stage of the Soul Cleansing realm will not put myself in such danger as when fighting two assassins last night," he said in a soft voice.
The only reason why Weng Lou could so easily defeat Du Bishou and Siwang Hua last night was because both of them were assassins, not fighters who fought head-on.
They were both trained to kill instantly and sneak everywhere easily. The fight directly only made their shortcomings look very obvious.
As assassins, they were trained to be able to move quickly, not to fight head-on. The physical strength of the assassin was always below those of a fighter at the same level of practice.
That's why Weng Lou is quite concerned with his physical improvement, because this includes one of his hidden cards in fighting his opponent.
After a few seconds of silence in the room, Weng Lou walked out and saw Weng Ying Luan sitting in the dining room while staring at the thin fog outside.
"Hey, wanna go around for a second? I want to look around this village further" said Weng Lou who then walked out of the inn building.
Weng Ying Luan stared at Weng Lou for a while. He was wondering if he should go with her or not.
After thinking that he looked like a fool who just sat and stared out the window, Weng Ying Luan got up from her place and went to follow Weng Lou.
The two of them stopped walking when they were right outside the door of the inn, and stared at the houses of the residents one by one .
Placing both hands behind his head, Weng Lou started to step up his legs, and walked away from it, followed by Weng Ying Luan behind him.
"This place is really quiet, the fog here only makes the quiet atmosphere in this village more so," weng Ying Luan's comment that noticed no movement at all from the houses in the village.
Weng Lou just silently heard it and chose to keep going. He chose to move along the road that leads out of the village, then turn, and go around the village.
On the outskirts of the village, the only thing that could be seen as a sight was the mist everywhere. The distance of view from this village came out only a few tens of meters, different from the visibility from outside to the village, even a distance of five hundred meters could still be seen.
While walking, suddenly Weng Ying Luan's footsteps stopped, and made Weng Lou also stop her footsteps.
He turned his head towards Weng Ying Luan looking and instantly both of his eyes widened, and his facial expression looked surprised.
What the two of them saw were two lifeless human bodies in a truly miserable state. That is in a state of being torn apart throughout the body that seems to be caused by the actions of a wild animal.
