Chapter 284: Chapter 284: Advancement of the Golden Body_1

Ling Xiao, before the fusion with his Mountain and River Martial Soul, had aptitude comparable to Ming Tian and Leng Hao.

However, after the transformation by the Mountain and River Martial Soul, he could clearly feel that it was not only his aptitude in martial arts that had soared significantly.

His memory and comprehension, among other things, also improved across the board.

The Mountain and River Martial Soul didn’t just feel like a simple auxiliary tool; it had gradually become one with Ling Xiao’s soul.

As this fusion deepened, various aspects of his body would continue to transform and improve.

The awakening of the Mountain and River Martial Soul was actually quite abrupt, triggered by the incomplete scroll given to him by his grandfather, Hong Qi.

He now began to doubt, was Hong Qi really just a beggar?

And who were his parents?

Ling Xiao’s mounting suspicions were not unfounded, as his vision broadened, he became increasingly aware of how terrifying the Mountain and River Martial Soul was.

If Hong Qi was just an ordinary person, how could he possess such an invaluable item?

Forget it, for now, speed up the improvement of your strength, one day, the answers to these questions will be unveiled.

He believed that Hong Qi would not harm him, perhaps there were just some things that couldn’t be revealed to him yet.

So, he could only improve his own strength to make Hong Qi believe that he was capable of protecting himself.

Beyond that, there probably wasn’t any other way.

About one shichen had passed.

Ling Xiao’s body had actually excreted a layer of black, stinky, sticky liquid.

This substance, the body’s impurities, was not new to him; Ling Xiao was well aware that it meant his body had once again become closer to a Transcendent Body.

He had undergone a sublimation from body to soul, a true rebirth, nothing less than that.

Using what he had learned from his previous battle with Yang Cheng and Li Anle, the accumulated power erupted once more.

His cultivation level also broke through to the intermediate stage of the Martial Pulse Ninth Level.

Of course, he still presented himself as having reached the Eighth Layer Martial Vein Peak to the outside world.

He may be very powerful in combat, but his cultivation level absolutely could not increase so rapidly, or else it would cause trouble once the Demonflame Celestial took notice.

Hei Suo, he was no longer afraid of now; without the full support of the Demonflame Celestial, even if Hei Suo had ten times the courage, he would not dare to openly confront Ling Xiao, after all, he now also had a powerful backer.

As for the schemes behind his back, let them come as they may; Ling Xiao might not excel in anything else, but he was best at letting others reap what they sow!

With such enormous progress, in fact, less than one-third of the efficacy of the Transcendent Body Sculpting Pill had been digested.

This level of enhancement, if it were anyone else, would have required the consumption of all the Transcendent Body Sculpting Pills to achieve, yet he only used a third.

In the end, this was still thanks to the Mountain and River Martial Soul.

With the presence of the Mountain and River Martial Soul, he hardly wasted any of the medicinal efficacy and was able to absorb it almost completely.

Not only that, but the special energy released by the Mountain and River Martial Soul could enhance the potency, which was something others couldn’t do.

As the strongest Martial Soul, the Mountain and River Martial Soul’s role in aiding was absolutely deserving of its title.

As for combat, Ling Xiao had not yet tried.

Although he was eager to, in order to avoid becoming a target, he still suppressed this desire as much as possible.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would definitely not use the Mountain and River Martial Soul to fight; after all, his other Martial Souls were already enough.

Furthermore, with the aid of the Transcendent Body Sculpting Pill, the efficacy of the Qianyuan Bone Changing Pill had been fully absorbed.

This had allowed the previously stagnant "Heavenly Dragon Golden Body" to break its shackles and advance to the fourth layer realm in one fell swoop.

Heavenly Dragon Golden Body, the fourth layer, could cultivate the Heavenly Dragon Martial Vein.

In other words, once the Martial Veins inside the body were completely transformed into the Heavenly Dragon Martial Vein, not only would the True Essence stored be increased, but it could also be completely transformed into Divine Dragon True Essence.

Having now broken through the fourth layer, what came next was to completely transform the Snow Lotus True Essence in his body—apart from the Thunderbolt True Element and Fierce Beast True Essence—into Divine Dragon True Essence.

The level of Divine Dragon True Essence was much higher than that of the Snow Lotus True Essence.

Moreover, it wouldn’t erase the characteristics of the Snow Lotus True Essence, which could be said to be truly wondrous.

After the quality of his True Essence improved, all his martial skills would also significantly enhance their attack power, making his strength much greater than during his previous fight with Yang Cheng.

Clearly, if it had just been the Qianyuan Bone Changing Pill, breaking through the fourth layer of Heavenly Dragon Golden Body would have been virtually impossible.

At the very least, it wouldn’t have happened so quickly.

The most critical factor was the Transcendent Body Sculpting Pill that Elder Master Yang had given as a gift.

This was Moon Hua Sect, one of the Twelve Sects, where opportunities were so much more abundant than in the secular world.

Simply because of a victory in a challenge, he received a casually gifted pill from a hall master, resulting in such a breakthrough, which was genuinely surprising.

Since the speed of improvement for defensive martial skills was inherently slower than other martial arts, many were not willing to waste time on it.

Among the entire Outer Sect, there were not more than ten out of a thousand who primarily focused on defensive martial arts.

Within the top thirty of the Outer Sect, there was only one person who mainly trained in defensive martial arts.

That was Jin Ming.

Even Ling Xiao, did not primarily focus on defensive martial arts; instead, he was capable of comprehensive improvement.

After advancing to the fourth layer of Heavenly Dragon Golden Body, the toughness of his body had already surpassed that of Jin Ming.

Confidence was something he always had in abundance, but until recently, he really did not have the assurance that he could defeat Jin Ming.

But now, the situation had undergone a dramatic change. With his current strength, defeating Jin Ming wouldn’t be easy, but it had become possible.

What he was now more concerned about was not defeating anyone, but the next two layers of Heavenly Dragon Golden Body.

Heavenly Dragon Golden Body had only six layers in total.

The fifth layer was terrifying. At this level, one could completely shed their mortal form, transforming their entire body, possessing the full Dragon Blood, able to resurrect from a single drop of blood, and then break through to the Extraordinary Sacred Realm!

Then, the final layer, the sixth layer—

Impervious to fire and water, Vajra Indestructible, soul reborn, physical body undying!

This was a realm that truly astonished Ling Xiao.

Such a formidable defensive martial art was merely considered a top-tier gold-grade martial art; then how terrifying must the Dragon Emperor Body Protecting Formula be, and to what realm could it reach?

He was truly looking forward to it.

Even though Ling Xiao had only attained the fourth layer of Heavenly Dragon Golden Body, the strength of his body was already stronger than that of a half-step grandmaster.

It could be said that with pure physical strength alone, without utilizing any True Essence, he could now kill an ordinary half-step grandmaster, who would be completely unable to harm him.

It was that formidable!

To say he was unbeatable below the Transcendent Realm might still be premature since the top three of the Outer Sect were not to be trifled with.

But even if not unbeatable, he could now stand on invincible ground.

After continuing to train for a while, the sky had already darkened.

Ling Xiao felt that his cultivation level had become solid and secure, and, for the time being, couldn’t be further improved. He took a deep breath and stopped his practice.
