Chapter 250: Xi Xi Meets the Big Black Dog Again, Who Captures and Takes Away You Liqing's Three Souls and Seven Spirits (Part 1)
Buzz!
Powerful air currents raged like frenzied dancing silk, lashing the air and emitting a series of dull, booming sounds.
Li Che's body swelled with each passing moment, his muscles stacking upon each other like boulders, his skin becoming translucent, and the blood within his flesh and muscles roaring like molten mercury. The temperature in the entire courtyard soared.
His jet-black hair danced wildly, and his eyes opened and closed, revealing a golden glow in the depths of his pupils, constantly radiating outward.
This was the state of Li Che after fully stimulating the Dragon Elephant Vajra Fruit.
His body grew taller and more robust, reaching a height of two and a half meters, resembling a small giant. His entire being was enveloped in blood-colored smoke, his flesh like translucent jade, his bones like golden threads, and his gaze emitting a golden glow akin to the lingering fragrance of incense.
Within his left arm, a resounding clanging sound echoed incessantly, as if an unparalleled treasure sword was vibrating within, yearning to burst out of its sheath and unleash a blazing sword light.
A blindingly sharp aura brewed within Li Che's left hand.
Li Che's eyes blazed with intensity as he used the power of the Dao Fruit to stimulate this mythical weapon, the Three-Pronged Two-Bladed Sword... It was indeed an unexpected idea, but now it seemed to be working quite well.
This sword, which resembled a salted fish, showed no reaction when stimulated by other mythical weapons.
Even the Heaven-Crossing Face, a mythical weapon from Qitian City, had failed to elicit any response from the Three-Pronged Two-Bladed Sword. Li Che surmised that it was because the Heaven-Crossing Face was not complete, only a third of its original size.
If three Heaven-Crossing Faces were combined, the Three-Pronged Two-Bladed Sword would undoubtedly react.
Therefore, Li Che decided to use the power of the Dao Fruit to stimulate it.
The Dragon Elephant Vajra Fruit, having undergone the ultimate dual cultivation, had pushed his strength to the extreme. He used this power to stimulate the mythical weapon!
Buzz!
The clanging sound was like the explosion of heavenly thunder.
An extremely pure divine nature surged into his limbs and bones, stimulating them like electric currents. This was the power of the divine weapon tempering the body.
However, Li Che's physical body had already undergone tremendous changes, far surpassing its previous state.
Not only had the Dragon Elephant Vajra Fruit's two transformations brought about significant improvements, but the divine nurturing he received during the cultivation of the Law Heaven Mimic Earth Spiritual Bright Monkey's divine form had also played a significant role.
That time, his physical body had endured an intense tempering and enhancement!
Now, if one wanted to further enhance Li Che's physical body, it would require an extraordinary amount of energy.
As Li Che felt the divine nature of the mythical weapon spreading through his limbs and bones, he spread his five fingers wide, causing his blood to surge and boil. Waves of heat rose, scorching the drifting snow above the courtyard.
It was as if countless sword lights hidden within the crevices of his muscles were erupting within his flesh.
The flesh, tempered to its utmost limit, suddenly experienced a slight sensation of pain!
Li Che's eyes blazed with intensity, and his body was covered in dense, scorching sweat.
In an instant, it was as if an unparalleled swordsman had unleashed his full power, and every sword light was like a ray of the scorching sun, filled with heat and lashing force.
His flesh and blood emitted crackling sounds, and his skin rippled like the surface of a drum, constantly undulating. The sword light from the two-bladed sword struck his skin, causing it to quiver and twitch like a coiled dragon.
Large tendons bore the brunt of the sword slashes, resulting in unimaginable transformations!
At the center of his eyebrows, the Niwan Palace, his flesh tore open!
The Star-Picking Eye suddenly shone with a dazzling brilliance, like a scorching sun.
Li Che felt as if his body had become a battlefield, where every inch of flesh and blood was engaged in a fierce battle between vital energy and sword energy.
His tendons, blood, and organs underwent astonishing transformations!
Li Che naturally wouldn't waste this golden opportunity.
Each transformation of the flesh was a once-in-a-millennium chance!
At this moment, he was like a martial artist, ready to seize this opportunity.
Clenching his five fingers, a thunderous roar akin to a dragon's cry reverberated through the air. The Eight Treasure Golden Thunder Dragon Staff fell into Li Che's hands, and the vital energy within it surged, enveloping the divine weapon and elevating it to a higher level.
The sky trembled, and the accumulated snow evaporated!
Li Che's Five Gates Martial Saint's ultimate skills, his self-created martial art, Ten Thousand Transformations Dragon Elephant, had already reached the realm of perfection. Even after obtaining the Seed Martial Art, it showed signs of transforming into the Seed Martial Art.
Another martial art that had reached the realm of perfection was the Ten Thousand Dragons Subduing Gods.
The remaining three martial arts, the Primordial Heaven-reaching Staff, the Thousand Mountains Solo Saber, and the Floating Void Eight Auspicious Steps, Li Che had only cultivated to the Mastery Realm.
There was still some distance to reach the realm of perfection.
Once a martial art was cultivated to the realm of perfection, it could be integrated into every movement, and even form a unique true intent domain. Within this domain, the power of the martial art would be greatly enhanced, making it even more terrifying in combat.
Li Che gripped the Thunder Dragon Treasure Staff, and electric currents surged and intertwined. As he wielded the staff, countless dazzling electric webs exploded in the air!
Whoosh!
The long staff lashed out, and countless staff shadows crisscrossed and exploded in the air. Li Che stood in the courtyard, holding the treasure staff and using the divine nature of the mythical weapon within his body to temper his physique and practice his martial arts.
As he tempered his body and practiced his martial arts, the divine nature of the mythical weapon was rapidly consumed.
With a swing of the staff!
Qitian's ultimate killing move!
Li Che repeatedly practiced the killing moves of the Primordial Heaven-reaching Staff.
Every muscle twitched, and the tendons and flesh seemed to undergo a drastic transformation at this moment!
It was a crucial moment!
The flesh rippled, and the blood within roared like molten mercury. The tendons tightened, as if the mythical divine bow was being forcibly drawn, and the sound of the explosion created ripples in the air.
The divine essence aura danced wildly, and the primordial true essence aura surged forth, striking the void!
In an instant, Li Che held the Eight Treasure Golden Thunder Dragon Staff with one hand, standing motionless. It was as if he had undergone a transformation, and every subtle change within a radius of several dozen zhang was within his perception.
As if with a thought, the staff in his hand could pinpoint any target, unstoppable and peerlessly domineering!
This meant that Li Che had cultivated the Primordial Heaven-reaching Staff, an extremely challenging Martial Saint's ultimate skill, to the point of perfection, giving birth to a true intent domain. Within this domain, there was a sense of unparalleled superiority.
Martial Saint's ultimate skills are applicable to the Grand Master realm. Even for Grand Masters who have achieved unity with heaven and earth, reaching the pinnacle of the Primordial Grand Master realm, or the Supreme Grand Master realm with the Three Flowers at the apex, it is merely a transformation of power. However, in terms of technique, the gap is not significant.
Take You Liqing, for example. Although he is a Supreme Grand Master at the pinnacle of the Three Flowers realm, his primary means of combat is still the Ten Thousand Dragons Subduing Gods, another Martial Saint's ultimate skill.
The Seed Martial Art is indeed powerful, but once activated, it not only consumes Essence Aura but also depletes the spirit and energy of the practitioner. It is a trump card-level power.
Only after reaching the Martial Saint realm can one form a perfect cycle of spirit, energy, and essence, allowing the physical body to become transparent and seamlessly connected with heaven and earth, harnessing the power of nature for one's own use.
Only then can one freely and fearlessly display the power of the Seed Martial Art.
Take You Liqing, for instance. As a top-tier Supreme Grand Master at the pinnacle of the Three Flowers realm, the reason for his death was overstimulating the Seed, causing an overload and an explosive burst of the Seed.
"The third Martial Saint's ultimate skill has reached the perfection of transformation!"
Li Che's eyes shone brightly. Once a Martial Art reaches the perfection of transformation, it becomes effortless to use in combat, meaning Li Che's Martial Arts variations during battles will increase, and his overall strength will naturally become even more formidable.
"In addition to that, there's also the Thousand Mountains Solo Traveling Saber..."
Li Che closed his eyes, and in an instant, he felt as if the entire world had fallen into silence. It was as if his entire being was walking through the vast universe, strolling amidst the swirling wind and snow.
In that instant, his eyes flashed.
In his left arm, the muscles and bones resonated, and a dazzling saber light burst forth! It was like thunder exploding in the sky, with the air rumbling and saber energy raging!
This was the Righteous Thunder Exorcising Three-Pronged Two-Bladed Saber within his arm. The blood-colored Seed, which was swirling and condensing within the extraordinary acupoint of his spine, seemed to be stimulated by the saber technique at this moment!
In an instant, the sky above the entire courtyard seemed to darken.
Li Che took a powerful step forward, and with just this one step, it was as if he had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, with the heavens and earth shrinking beneath his feet!
Then, he clenched his five fingers together like a saber.
He took a step forward.
Swung his arm.
Twisted his waist.
Drew the saber.
The faint sound of the saber slicing through the wind and snow rang out, exploding with a crisp, vibrating hum!
Countless air currents, snowflakes, Essence Auras, and Divine Natures...
All seemed to be sliced apart by that single saber strike!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
A dazzling saber cry rang out, as if a silver moon had exploded within Li Che's left hand!
The terrifying saber light raged and coiled, as if breaking free from its cage, with the dense saber energy slicing through the air in the courtyard, rolling like a dragon flipping its body!
On Li Che's left arm, there seemed to be a faint shadow of the Three-Pronged Two-Bladed Saber.
It flickered in and out of sight.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
"The Thousand Mountains Solo Traveling Saber has also reached the perfection of transformation! It can even merge with the Two-Bladed Saber Seed!"
Li Che's black hair whipped wildly, and the fragrant golden smoke emanating from his eyes lingered without dispersing.
The last trace of Divine Nature, squeezed from the Mythical Armament, had been exhausted by him, tempering his physique.
Assisting in the perfection of two Martial Saint's ultimate skills!
His fingers trembled, and the air currents were torn apart, with invisible saber intent swirling around, forming a unique and domineering sharp aura field!
Buzz!
The green Primordial True Essence Aura, which encircled the dantian and the physical body, seemed to emerge from his flesh like a giant python.
After the Divine Essence Aura comes the True Essence Aura, which is of a higher rank and power intensity than the Divine Essence Aura.
Above the True Essence Aura is the Three Flowers Essence Aura, a powerful fusion of martial arts spirit, energy, and essence, cultivated by Supreme Grand Masters.
"Ten strands... The Primordial True Essence Aura has reached ten strands."
Li Che exhaled a turbid breath, and his energy shot out like a wild arrow.
His eyes flashed.
[Dao Fruit: Dragon Elephant Vajra (lv5, 10%)]
"An unexpected joy."
Li Che raised his eyebrows. After the Dao Fruit reached level 5, it became extremely challenging to accumulate maturity and further enhance it.
Even in the battle with You Liqing, the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit only increased slightly.
But now, by stimulating the Divine Nature of the Three-Pronged Two-Bladed Saber and tempering his physique, it had increased by a full 4% in maturity.
Of course, Li Che was also aware that a significant portion of this was due to him cultivating two Martial Saint's ultimate skills to the perfection of transformation, which had a considerable influence.
As expected, after a brief sensing, Li Che found that the feedback from this profound enlightenment was not strong.
The increase in Dao Fruit maturity gained from personal comprehension and breakthrough of Martial Art barriers, without the nurturing of the unique enlightenment, would not be as profound.
He felt a slight sense of regret.
However, Li Che was content in his heart.
As he felt the Three-Pronged Two-Bladed Saber calming down, as if entering a sage's time, he suppressed the urge to stimulate the Two-Bladed Saber with the other five Dao Fruits.
This was mainly because he hadn't fully comprehended today's tempering and wasn't in a rush to continue stimulating it.
However, extracting the Divine Nature from the Divine Armament to temper his physique had opened a new world for Li Che.
It gave him a clear direction for his future martial arts advancement.
He lifted his hand and looked at his left arm, which seemed to emanate a lustrous glaze.
"When will I be able to summon this Divine Armament and formally grasp it in my hand?"
Li Che couldn't help but yearn for it.
It was a top-grade Four Virtues Divine Armament, with an extremely powerful and extraordinary might.
Li Che restrained the power of the Dao Fruit, and his energy calmed down, returning to his tall and slender physique.
He sat quietly under the eaves as the wind and snow howled and fell, piling up on the black-tiled roof, slowly accumulating.
The teapot simmered, heating the water as verdant tea leaves swirled within. Li Che sat with lowered eyelids, deep in contemplation and reflection.
"In terms of martial arts, I've made significant progress. I've accumulated six Seed Martial Arts, including the Blood Crocodile Rending Heaven Palm, which I obtained from You Liqing's collection. I've completed the set."
"However, the Human Body's Eight Extraordinary Meridians require the planting of eight Seed Essences... I still lack two."
"The Mythical Armament, the Three-Pronged Two-Bladed Sword, provided one Seed Essence. By integrating the Thousand Mountains Solo Traveling Saber, a Martial Saint's ultimate skill, into a Seed Martial Art, I've created a new technique. However, it's still in the process of condensation and hasn't fully formed yet..."
"There's no rush. First, I'll condense the acquired six Seed Martial Arts into Seed Essences and plant them into the Extraordinary Meridians."
With the Seed Essences, the speed of condensing the Primordial Essence Aura would increase significantly.
If he could simultaneously condense eight Seed Essences to cultivate the Primordial Essence Aura, it wouldn't be long before Li Che accumulated a full 108 strands of the Primordial Essence Aura.
"My martial arts path is clear, but in terms of Divine Nature, my cultivation is still at the Divine Form Realm..."
"Although I have the Emulate Heaven and Earth Spirit Clarity True Monkey Divine Form, a Three Purities rank Divine Form, which allows me to ignore most Divine Nature pressures..."
"But ultimately, my Divine Nature cultivation is still somewhat lacking."
"The Seven Emotions and Six Desires... When the Seven Emotions condense into a Divine Form, the Six Desires also forge a Divine Foundation, but I lack the Divine Form..."
Li Che's eyes narrowed, knowing that cultivating the Six Desires Divine Form was no easy task.
"If only there was a Divine Form that could directly gather the Six Desires."
As this thought crossed his mind, Li Che's eyes brightened.
