In the Killing Techniques Palace, countless streams of thunderbolts struck Fang Xingjian’s body again and again, constantly strengthening the heavenly thunders and terrestrial magnetism forces between all the particles in his body, and thus constantly strengthening Fang Xingjian’s body.

The number of streams of thunderbolts continued to increase, turning into numerous thunder dragons circling around Fang Xingjian and attacking him. However, he was absorbing all of them, using them to strengthen his own body.

In no time, the two level 21 Conferred Knights could no longer continue performing the Thunderbolt Sword Technique. They retreated and pierced their swords into the ground, panting heavily.

The only one left was was Duolun, who was guarding the stage. He continued to perform the Thunderbolt Sword Technique, swinging his sword about vividly and with great loftiness, creating streams after streams of lightning and sending them toward Fang Xingjian’s body.

More than an hour later, Duolun had also reached his limits and retreated, looking at Fang Xingjian who was floating in the middle of the hall as if he was a sphere of lightning. The piercing light first shone like a sun risen in the air, and then it extinguished as Fang Xingjian let out a long whistle.

The last stream of thunderbolt had been absorbed into Fang Xingjian’s body. He exhale slightly, electric sparks coming out from his mouth and nose occasionally.

Clenching his fists, Fang Xingjian smiled and asked Duolun,”Would you like to try out my current body’s strength?”

“The heavenly thunders and terrestrial magnetism forces that you’re cultivating are so powerful. I’ve long been curious about them.”

Duolun laughed out loud and pierced outward with his longsword. Accompanied by electric sparks, he continued to accelerate, leaving a long trail of charred marks on the ground in his path, as his longsword pierced straight toward Fang Xingjian’s chest with a power of several tens of tons.

Fang Xingjian only stood there quietly, letting Duolun pierce his upper body time and time again.

As a level 22 Conferred Knight, each of Duolun’s sword attacks was enough to destroy a tank. Furthermore, his sword aura ceaselessly attacked like lightning, creating a series of electric sparks on Fang Xingjian’s body. Ten breaths later, Duolun stopped and retreated, revealing a look of astonishment when he saw Fang Xingjian unscathed from the attacks.

“Isn’t your defence too powerful? I’ve encountered many seniors who had been cultivating at level 23 for many years. However, them reaching this level is something impossible.”

“Mmm, my rate of cultivation is faster.”

Fang Xingjian clenched his fists in satisfaction. He had the Sword Bones specialty, and each of his bones would grow stronger as his level increased. Right now, he was at level 23 and his sword bones were the equivalent of a level 23 Superior Divine Weapon.

With this, in addition to his cultivation of the heavenly thunders and terrestrial magnetism forces, and the enhancement from the second level of the mystical prints, his cultivation increase rate was tremendous. This made his body’s defence comparable to a Superior Divine Weapon, far surpassing that of an ordinary level 23 Conferred Knight.

“But I’m at my limit soon. Thank you for your help all this time. I won’t be coming to train my heavenly thunders and terrestrial magnetism forces anymore.”

“There’s no need to stand on ceremony. With a good target like you to hit, our Thunderbolt Sword Technique has also improved a lot.”

Duolun’s words were filled with politeness, clearly showing that he wanted to form a good relationship with Fang Xingjian. He even asked Fang Xingjian to stay and have a meal in the Killing Techniques Palace, but the latter politely refused.

When Fang Xingjian walked out of the Killing Techniques Palace, Robert was already following at his side.

Robert reported,”We’ve received an additional income of 280,000 gold all this while. We’ll soon be able to reach the 300,000 gold that you need for the next tier.”

Fang Xingjian nodded. With each additional level of the mystical prints, an additional 100,000 gold was needed. Right now, he wanted to cultivate the third level of the mystical prints and thus he needed 300,000 gold.

Judging by this pattern, for higher levels he would need 500,000 gold, 800,000 gold, or even one million gold. Even a Regional Academy would be stumped by this kind of expenditure.

Ordinary aristocrats would not be able to afford to cultivate this even at the expense of all their family’s wealth.

Even with the royalties Fang Xingjian was getting from the Rebirth Sword Technique, he would still need about five years before he would be wealthy enough to cultivate level 10 of the mystical prints.

Especially when the materials required for the last few levels were no longer things which could be purchased with money alone.

Hearing Robert’s report, Fang Xingjian nodded,”Then start to gather the materials. Remember to do it in secret. If you encounter any problems, look for Anderson first. He’ll help to solve them.”
