Chapter 346 (1/2)
Azure Water Sect, Azure Water Grand Hall.
Ouyang Wentian spoke in an immense voice, ”Elder Liang and Left Protector are dead, causing our Azure Water Sect to decline greatly in strength. Fortunately, we have benefited considerably from this trip to the Black Sky Sect's ruin. I propose to give this earth cla.s.s low-tier armor to Elder Ouyang Tie.”
”Supreme Elder Ouyang is our Azure Water Sect's no.1 expert. It should be the case.” Elder Guo responded.
Ouyang Tie had a smile on his face as he spoke, ”Then this old one will accept everyone's kindness.”
An earth cla.s.s low-tier armor's value was several times more than an earth cla.s.s low-tier weapon.
With this earth cla.s.s low-tier armor, he believed that he would be able to battle against a 4th level Reincarnation Realm martial artist. Even a 5th level Reincarnation Realm expert wouldn't be able to defeat in a short period of time. It could also be said that this earth cla.s.s low-tier armor was enough to compensate for the strength deficient caused the loss of Elder Liang and Left Protector, perhaps even overcompensating.
”As for this 5-star secret technique, Shadow of Scarlet… We will cultivate it first and decide if it should be imparted. Of course, there is one individual who we can impart first and he is Li Fuchen.” Ouyang Wentian regarded Li Fuchen very highly as he was a prodigy since the history of the sect and had an exceptionally high perception that was probably at the top of the entire East Unicorn Continent. As long as he had sufficient time to grow, he might have the chance to stand on the pinnacle of the East Unicorn Continent.
Hearing Ouyang Wentian's statement, Ouyang Tie, and others nodded. With Li Fuchen's perception, his comprehension speed of the 5-star secret technique wouldn't be slower than them. Furthermore, with the Shadow of Scarlet, Li Fuchen would have even more strength to protect himself.
On the next day, Li Fuchen received the Shadow of Scarlet.
The Shadow of Scarlet was a secret technique that had both defense and offense. Once cultivated, the body would be able to condense a cloud of scarlet human shadow. It was similar to the Heaven Fiend Sect's Heaven Fiend Asura.
It allowed for a huge increase in defensive and offensive abilities.
But to say the truth, Li Fuchen felt that it was a pity. If the Shadow of Scarlet was like the Pure Yang Dipper Qi which was a secret technique to boost the power of qi, it might be able to stack with the Nine Revolution Purple Qi Divine Technique and the Bronze Sword Essence. If it was possible, he would be able to burst out with shocking strength.
Of course, it was unknown if it could be stacked or not.
Furthermore, the situation wasn't so, hence, Li Fuchen didn't think about it.
Li Fuchen didn't immediately cultivate the Shadow of Scarlet, as he spent all his efforts on the cultivation of the Bronze Sword Essence secret technique.
Half a year had pa.s.sed by and the black iron sword patterns on his bones were nearly gone. On the other hand, the bronze sword patterns had covered nearly 90% of his bones, leaving only 10%.
No matter which secret technique… when it was cultivated to the perfection rank, there would be a considerable increase in power.
A 99% completed Bronze Sword Essence and the perfection rank Bronze Sword Essence still had a little gap.
”I wonder how would the power of the perfection rank Bronze Sword Essence be like?” Li Fuchen was looking forward to it.
A perfection rank Bronze Sword Essence was considered a top-cla.s.s 6-star secret technique and it was much more powerful when compared to a 5-star secret technique.
And this cultivation process had taken up three whole months.
During these three months, Li Fuchen had slightly cultivated the Shadow of Scarlet.
But with his perception, he still cultivated the Shadow of Scarlet to the sub-completion rank.
After activating the Shadow of Scarlet, his body formed a 30 feet tall scarlet shadow.
The Shadow of Scarlet increased Li Fuchen's defense and offense by around 30%. It wasn't hard to imagine that when at completion rank, the defense and offense might be close to doubling.
If the defense and offense were doubled, it meant that the pract.i.tioner's strength was doubled too.
With the increase in cultivation, the difficulty to increase in strength would be progressively more difficult. If Li Fuchen was at the Reincarnation Realm and it would be praiseworthy if a 5-star secret technique could increase his strength by 20% or 30%.
This was also the reason why 4-star secret techniques weren't effective for Reincarnation Realm martial artists.
Otherwise, there would be countless Reincarnation Realm martial artists coveting for Li Fuchen's sword essence secret technique.
Of course, they had a.s.sumed Li Fuchen's sword essence secret technique was a 4-star secret technique. Hence, even if it could be stacked with other secret techniques, it would only increase their strength slightly. Making the secret technique something good if they managed to obtain it, but there wouldn't be any impact even if they couldn't obtain it.
”The Bronze Sword Essence is finally at perfection rank.”
During the past few days, the bones inside Li Fuchen's body had been completely branded with the bronze sword pattern.
The condensed bronze sword pattern had made Li Fuchen's bones like an exquisite artwork, while it displayed a mystical and mysterious feeling.
”Emerge!”
After the true inferno qi was trans.m.u.ted into the bronze sword qi, it then appeared outside the body.
Swis.h.!.+
The clear sound of the sword echoed as bronze swords qi appeared. They looked like real bronze swords and were extremely sharp as it felt like they could even slice the void.
”Go!”
With a burst of qi presence, the bronze swords qi shot out.
On the other side, there was a giant mystic cla.s.s metallic ore which was filled with numerous holes. A wind blow over forcefully and it had crumbled instantly.
”Such power, the power is at least 30% higher than before.” Li Fuchen's eyes lit up.
The 99% completed and the perfection rank Bronze Sword Essence might only be 1% apart, but the power was 30% in disparity.
”I wonder if I am to use all my trump cards, will I be able to clash with the 1st or 2nd level of Reincarnation Realm martial artists for a few times?”
If it was before, Li Fuchen wouldn't even dare to think in this way.
But right now, he suddenly had much confidence.
White Mountain Region, Black Sky Sect's ruin…
The Black Sky Sect was a flouris.h.i.+ng sect over 2000 years ago. The sect had dozens of Battle Spirit Realm experts and even had existences that were beyond the Battle Spirit Realm. This sect ruin wasn't comparable to regular sect ruins. Even the pinnacle experts of the East Unicorn Continent wouldn't be able to explore the entire Black Sky Sect's ruin
Hence, there would be experts coming to explore every three to five days. Some were from the Hundred Sects and some were from the Demonic Ten Regions, there were even Reincarnation Realm martial artists from the evil dao factions.
On this day, two ma.s.sive figures had arrived at the entrance of the Black Sky Sect's ruin. They were the Mountain Shaking Elephant and the Petrified Queen.
