In Jing Hao’s shocked gaze, the silver flames suddenly exploded into a sky of fireworks!
That stubborn lad’s silhouette, akin to a log of wood, fell rigidly, straight down, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Jing Hao was alarmed. With a point of his feet, he rushed towards Tang Tian.
Swoosh, a shadow flashed past, biting cold with a deadly intent, rushing head-on. Jing Hao’s hair stood on ends, and he hurriedly stopped in his tracks.
A strange Spirit General was blocking his way.
This Spirit General had a weird appearance, especially its face, which was smooth like paper. Its facial features looked as though they were painted on. This was the first time Jing Hao saw such a strange Spirit General, but he dared not look down on it, for the deadly intent that was emitted from the Spirit General was like needles pricking right at his heart.
So formidable!
Jing Hao was secretly awe-inspired. The power of this Spirit General, actually made him feel that it was somewhat unfathomable.
“I mean no harm.” Jing Hao automatically retreated a step, his gaze fixed on the Spirit General in front.
The Spirit General did not speak, but the deadly intent did not dissipate.
Jing Hao relaxed. Tang Tian’s Spirit General automatically protected its owner, which meant that Tang Tian would not be in much danger. He was secretly surprised that Tang Tian actually had such a formidable Spirit General, yet he never showed any signs. It seemed like Young Tang’s background was not so simple. However, Jing Hao soon began to rejoice, for Tang Tian had been brought into their Sect, and the more formidable and extraordinary Tang Tian’s background was, the better!
Jing Hao’s status in the Honorable Martial Group was largely due to his master. Although his power was not bad, due to his age, he still needed to accumulate experience over time. However, if he managed to rope in strong reinforcements, it would be a great help in stabilising his status within the Honorable Martial Group and his sect.
Besides… …
His gaze, was fixated to the Spirit Cultivation Device on the floor.
The amazing momentum of the entire energy crack’s energy stirring just now, at the thought of it now, he could not help but shudder involuntarily.
Cultivating the Martial Spirit!
Tang Tian actually grasped the technique of cultivating the Martial Spirit!
The silver flames from earlier on dissipated, a wisp of martial spirit dissolved into Tang Tian’s body. Jing Hao clearly saw that although that wisp of martial spirit was shapeless, it was silver in colour.
A Silver Martial Spirit!
This was what Jing Hao was truly envious of. His master had imparted to him the techniques of cultivating the Martial Spirit long ago, and had repeatedly reminded him that he had to cultivate it properly. Jing Hao never slacked, but till now, he only had a Bronze Martial Spirit. Jing Hao was clear on how difficult it was to train the Martial Spirit, and with regards to a Silver Martial Spirit, to him, it was still very far.
Master once said that once the Silver Martial Spirit was surmounted, the power of the Martial Spirit will start to increase prominently.
Master never specified the effects of a Silver Martial Spirit, but he could tell that a Silver Martial Spirit definitely had its unique properties.
It was that thing… …
Jing Hao’s gaze was blazing hot, staring rigidly at the Spirit Cultivation Device. Tang Tian could cultivate a Silver Martial Spirit, and it must be owed to this thing! Legends stated that, during the Era of the Three Big Armies, the Southern Cross Army already had similar things. The Honorable Martial Group had put much effort into researching this, and many people tried to find ways to restore this amazing device. But till now, no one had been able to do so.
Unexpectedly, it was seen by him!
Although Jing Hao was not the crafty sort, he was no fool either. He had no intent of snatching it, for the Spirit General guarding before Tang Tian was truly formidable. Furthermore, their sect was rather peace-loving. When met with such circumstances, they would usually choose to do transactions. To his knowledge, the Spirit Cultivation Device could only be used once. To Tang Tian, the device was already useless. Besides, he had ample confidence in gaining it via transaction, for he had the undertakings of his master, thus, his foundations were far more superior than the others.
And Jing Hao also decided, once he obtained the device, he would present it to his master. Jing Hao knew that his status in the Honorable Martial Group was still too low. If he handed it to the them, the rewards given, on the contrary, would definitely be much less. As for his master’s status, it would be much different, and the rewards reaped would be quite amazing. As long as Master could stabilise his status in the Honorable Martial Group, he would definitely get his rightful share of treats as well.
He must have a good talk with Tang Tian later on.

After an unknown period of time, Tang Tian slowly woke up.
Upon waking up, Tang Tian saw Bing guarding before him, and Jing Hao, who was distanced far away, and he immediately felt safe. As expected, Uncle Bing is the most trusted… …
He climbed up in a flash, “Hey, Uncle Bing!” And he hailed Jing Hao at the far end, “Brother Jing Hao!”
Upon seeing that Tang Tian had awoken, Jing Hao was revitalised, “Congrats, congrats! As a fourth level martial artist, to be able to cultivate a Silver Martial Spirit, Brother Tang is the first! You have a bright future!”
Upon seeing Tang Tian awaken, Bing did not bat an eyelid, and floated to Tang Tian’s back.
Bing retreated automatically, so Jing Hao suddenly felt as if a heavy load had been lifted off his shoulders, and while he heaved a sigh of relief, he felt a sense of horror, as, other than his Master, no one had ever given him such tremendous stress before! But, usually, by right, a Spirit General’s level cannot be higher than its master’s… …
Jing Hao began to feel that Tang Tian and his Spirit General were unfathomable. He quietly shook his head, and pushed the matter to the back of his mind. Looking at Tang Tian with shining eyes, Jing Hao asked formally, “Brother Tang, may I know if this device is indeed the Spirit Cultivation Device?”
Behind Tang Tian, Bing mutely commented, “No harm telling him.”
Tang Tian immediately had an idea of what is going on, and nodded his head, “That’s right, this is the Spirit Cultivation Device of the Southern Cross Army.”
Jing Hao’s joy immediately showed on his face. Although he tried hard to suppress it, his happiness could still be seen clearly on his face, “I had no idea Brother Tang actually had such an amazing device! I have heard, this device can only be used once for each person?”
“That’s right.” Tang Tian nodded.
Jing Hao’s expression was even more jovial, “I wonder if Brother Tang can give it to me?” He hurriedly added on, “Brother Tang, feel free to name your price, if I can’t make the decision, I’ll report it to my master.”
“You can agree.” Bing quietly said, behind Tang Tian.
