Chapter 536: Chapter 508 Cultivation Technique_2
The spiritual energy naturally dispersed in the world had become too thin for him... just like an elephant cannot fill its stomach with a few grapes, he would evolve to another level.
For an ordinary cultivator, it might be equivalent to forming a complete dependence on spirit stones.
But Xu Lingjun didn’t really mind...
Well, dependency is just dependency.
Which cultivator doesn’t rely on spirit stones?
Besides, I’m different from ordinary cultivators. If I run out of spirit stones, I can roam the world looking for fights. The ’Infinite Divine Demon Body Refining Technique’ also has a characteristic that allows the absorption of any material.
I find someone to fight, getting hit is also a form of progress...
If all else fails, I’ll just blast myself with the Rainbow Cannon.
I just can’t believe that even high-tech weapons can’t provide enough energy...
I’m not picky, spiritual energy isn’t the only thing for me, huh.
Thinking of this, Xu Lingjun earnestly studied the cultivation technique in his hands.
And as he read...
The originally pure spiritual power around him began to fluctuate violently.
If it was said that previously, due to his special encounters, he forcefully elevated his true essence to the level of spiritual power, now he was genuinely purifying the spiritual power again.
The cave began to tremble violently.
It seemed unable to withstand this overwhelming, irresistible force.
At this moment...
Heaven and Earth fell silent.
Boundless and infinite, a terrifying aura surged in all directions.
Ten miles.
Twenty miles.
Thirty miles.
It was as if the most terrifying beast had finally shed its baby teeth, revealing a mouth full of ferocious fangs, ready to devour all the enemies nearby.
In an instant, those Baoyan Army Legion warriors who were training stopped in their tracks.
Cold sweat trickled down their foreheads.
"This feeling, this feeling..."
Han Yun City’s legs almost trembled.
He knew the gap between him and Xu Lingjun had widened, but he was confident that with the Emperor Blood Heaven Slayer, he could fight him for hundreds of rounds.
But ever since he came to the Secret Realm...
Ever since he obtained the spirit stones.
The gap between them had completely widened, but he truly didn’t expect that the gap would become as vast as this.
Are the effects of spirit stones really this miraculous?
Han Yun City struggled to withstand the oppressive momentum, accompanied by a defiant roar...
The true qi within him surged continuously, accompanied by a silent roar.
His brain roared.
The Ninth Layer of Profound Realm!
He was just a step away from the Grandmaster Realm.
If it were any other day, he might have been thrilled for a moment... but now, the imminent breakthrough to the Grandmaster Realm brought him no joy at all.
What he looked forward to was Xu Lingjun.
He was very curious about what miraculous effects he would achieve if he too broke through using spirit stones.
And as the ancient tree and all the beasts sensed this aura at the same time...
They fell silent instantly.
This time, even the most arrogant and powerful King Xue said nothing more.
Although this aura was just that—an aura—it instinctively made him feel a sense of submission...
Too strong.
Xiaoyun sighed, "I really don’t know whether this time we’re keeping the wolf from the front door or inviting the tiger in through the back."
Hei Feng complained, "Stop using me as a metaphor..."
The ancient tree sighed, "How have they been getting along with the demon beasts during this time?"
A white ape holding a banana in its hand sneered, "Very well, they seem to be intentionally getting closer to our demon beasts. I don’t know what they’re planning. A few days ago, a human even came with a bunch of bananas trying to get close to me, saying he wanted to pet me... hmph... laughable, does he think a few bananas would win my favor?!"
He angrily ate the bananas and said, "I’m not that easy to buy."
Xiaoyun rolled her eyes and said, "They’re probably looking for demon beasts akin to companion demon beasts... newborn demon beasts have an instinct to recognize parents, and since we have intelligence similar to humans, while we can’t establish a bond, it’s evident they want to establish some relationship with us so we might fight alongside them in the future."
"In such matters, it depends entirely on the will of the beast. Don’t forcibly stop it, but don’t encourage it either."
The ancient tree sighed and said, "Xu Lingjun once said something very right, the Polar Star Battlefield doesn’t belong to the Great Xia Empire alone. Since our demon beasts can’t survive due to territory issues, instead of wasting their potential in the dangerous zones of the Secret Realm, we might as well place them on the Polar Star Battlefield, contributing to the survival of our kind... and if we can form some intimate connections with humans, we might be able to reduce casualties."
Of course, more than that, there was a fear of that human.
And a desire.
She had lived for many years and had seen so many things...
But she would never forget the powerful demon beasts she saw when she was young.
The terror of Level 11 and Level 12 demon beasts.
Fierce bodies traversing the cosmos.
Although Xu Lingjun had not yet showcased such power, the potential he exhibited and that terrifying pressure reminded it inexplicably of then.
Humans are indeed blessed by nature.
The ancient tree couldn’t help but let out a wistful sigh.
Perhaps it was time for them to try to approach humans.
Day by day passed.
Xu Lingjun had not come out since he entered the cave.
Even when those subsequent engineers in charge of excavating spirit stones arrived, Han Yun City blocked them outside, asking them to wait for a while...
