Chapter 908: Breaking Through to the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm
Mo Wen’s heart trembled as he thought of how he had utilized the Cold Pool to break through to the ninth level of the Nine Yin Divine Technique before this. His heart started pounding.
Perhaps with the help of the Spiritless Clean Fire, he could use the same method to break through to the ninth level of the Nine Yang Divine Technique!
Suppressing his excitement, Mo Wen gathered his thoughts and focused on the Spiritless Clean Fire in his body. At the moment, the Spiritless Clean Fire had been drawn out completely. The fire was like ocean waves, enveloping Mo Wen’s body layer upon layer. The aura of the Spiritless Clean Fire filled every inch of his body.
It was no different from when he was immersing himself in the Cold Pool. The only difference was one was flame and one was icy water.
Mo Wen tried to circulate the Nine Yang Divine Technique. Making use of his Nine Yang Genuine Qi, he could actively absorb the aura of the Spiritless Clean Fire. He then merged the Spiritless Clean Fire bit by bit into his Nine Yang Genuine Qi. This was his first time attempting this. Originally, he would never have dared to try it. It was because the Spiritless Clean Fire was a destructive power, and it was too terrifying. No matter how reckless Mo Wen was, he wouldn’t have thought of upgrading his Nine Yang Genuine Qi through absorbing the Spiritless Clean Fire.
However, since the Spiritless Clean Fire had been completely drawn out now, and Mo Wen had experienced the Cold Pool, he was inspired to try this out.
With the circulation method of the Nine Yang Divine Technique, he absorbed the Spiritless Clean Fire’s aura little by little. Although he could only absorb it bit by bit, for Mo Wen, the pressure was especially great. He felt as though he was treading on thin ice. Not only was he worried, but he also did not have enough strength.
He felt as though he was walking with a mountain on his back. Although absorbing the Spiritless Clean Fire’s aura appeared simple, in reality, it was rather difficult to pull it off. After a long while, he had only managed to absorb a small portion of the Spiritless Clean Fire’s aura into his Nine Yang Genuine Qi.
However, what surprised Mo Wen was that this method was usable. Also, the Spiritless Clean Fire’s aura was even more astonishing. It was far more effective than the Cold Pool’s Cold Vital Qi. His Nine Yang Genuine Qi seemed to grow stronger at an explosive rate. A mere sliver of Spiritless Clean Fire actually caused the Nine Yang Genuine Qi to balloon by fifty percent. It was too frightening.
After tasting such benefits, Mo Wen was overjoyed. He worked even harder and continued to circulate the Nine Yang Divine Technique, constantly absorbing the Spiritless Clean Fire. With his previous condition, he believed that it would not take long for him to break through to the ninth level Nine Yang Divine Technique.
In the challenge ring, Xin Wuji floated in midair. He mobilized more and more Power of Heaven and Earth. However, the expression of the Day Scorpion Familiar, who was hidden in Xin Wuji’s body, turned uglier. Mo Wen was like a bottomless hole. No matter how much energy the Day Scorpion Familiar put in, it would quickly be absorbed by Mo Wen.
How was it possible?
The Day Scorpion Familiar had never encountered such a situation before. The sacred level strong practitioners could mobilize the Power of Heaven and Earth; however, they couldn’t use it endlessly. They had to use their own power as the activation energy to mobilize the Power of Heaven and Earth. As they used the Power of Heaven and Earth, they also depleted the energy in their bodies.
In order to resist Mo Wen’s devouring, the Day Scorpion Familiar had almost pushed his energy limit to the maximum level. He was continuously depleting his own energy. This level of energy depletion had far exceeded what a common ancient martial art practitioner was capable of. It could be said that only a sacred level strong practitioner could sustain such a depletion of energy.
However, such a depletion actually still did not cause Mo Wen to explode. Right now, the Day Scorpion Familiar felt stuck between a rock and a hard place. Mo Wen was like a hot potato; the Day Scorpion Familiar wanted to get rid of him, but he could not. Right now, even if he wanted to stop, it was already not quite possible. It was because he and Mo Wen had formed a cycle. This cycle was connected by the Power of Heaven and Earth. If he suddenly tried to sever it, he would certainly face the recoil from the Power of Heaven and Earth.
Right now, so much Power of Heaven and Earth had been gathered. Once he was hit by the recoil, Xin Wuji would be instantly turned to dust, and Day Scorpion Familiar’s real body would also be severely injured.
Stuck between a rock and a hard place. Day Scorpion Familiar was experiencing this saying very deeply.
“While Mo Wen’s fire was devouring the flames, it actually formed a cycle with that person. He most likely is in for a world of pain.”
The corners of Mo Qingtian’s mouth curled into a playful smile. Initially, he was prepared to intervene and stop this battle, but right now he had changed his mind. From the look of the current situation, he did not need to act at all.
“If he severs this cycle, he will certainly be severely injured and will then expose his identity. If he does not sever the cycle, then it will continue until one of them falls. The Heavenly Fire cannot be satisfied. Hence, the final result can only be that the one who falls has their power devoured completely.”
Mo Qingge broke into a smile as well. She had not expected that this would happen either.
Others had no clue what was happening, and they didn’t know the real situation. However, everyone focused their attention on the clash between a flame and a mortal body in the sky.
There was actually a human who could resist such a terrifying flame with their body. This was a downright miracle!
“How did Mo Wen do it? This is so scary! Even with a protective shield around me, I can sense the destructive power emanated by the flame. If I was the one up there, I would most likely be turned to ashes in an instant.”
Wine and Meat Monk drew in a cold breath. Even though he couldn’t figure out what was really happening in the ring, he had rather good knowledge. Xin Wuji’s flame was formed with the fledging stage of profound meaning for fire as a basis, and it was activated with the Power of Heaven and Earth. Its might was on par with that of ordinary spiritual fire. If Wine and Meat Monk had encountered it, he would be burned into ashes in an instant. But Mo Wen had actually managed to resist the flame with his mortal body.
“He is practically a freak.” Water Deity was shocked beyond words too. She cultivated the power of water; hence, she was especially sensitive towards fire. Most likely no one else around could defend against the destructive flame.
“I did not imagine him to be so strong.” Dark Hand sighed. Originally, he had thought of fighting Mo Wen. But judging from the current situation, there was no need for that. First, there was Xin Wuji. Now, this Mo Wen had popped out from nowhere. Dark Hand had underestimated the talents hidden in the world.
“That’s good. At least you didn’t embarrass me.” The corner of Gu Jingman’s mouth curled to reveal a smile. Seeing that Mo Wen was not in danger, she felt relieved.
Among all the contestants, Lord Merciless was the only one with a sullen expression. His current mood was bad.
“Damn it! Damn it! How could he be so strong? How is this possible?”
Lord Merciless grumbled. With Mo Wen’s current ability, he was comparable to ultimate warriors. Ultimate warriors! Even the Blood Evil Temple did not have many of them. Besides, some mighty ultimate warriors could escape unhurt even when they encountered practitioners who had become immortal. Ultimate warriors were definitely difficult to deal with.
Mo Wen was actually an ultimate warrior! Moreover, he was still so young! Lord Merciless was terrorized with fear once he thought of that.
“This person must be killed. Otherwise, he will surely be a huge threat!”
Lord Merciless swore silently. He had to try his best to kill Mo Wen. Otherwise, Lord Merciless would be the one who was killed in the future.
…
Mo Wen remained merged with the fire. It was as though he was enveloped in the flame. At this moment, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Mo Wen did something that no one else had expected.
He sat cross-legged in midair, amidst the attack of a ferocious fire. He sat cross-legged in the air like an old monk who was meditating.
Everyone’s gazes were fixed on Mo Wen. What was he doing?
Questions popped up in everyone’s minds. Could it be that this was a method to defend against the fire attack?
The Day Scorpion Familiar felt strange too. Why would Mo Wen make such a peculiar move? His position seemed to suggest that he was cultivating. But how could this be possible? Against the Day Scorpion Familiar’s fire attack, Mo Wen was actually cultivating? This was practically unheard of.
Most likely this was also a way Mo Wen used to defend against the fire. Since he had forced Mo Wen to use such a method, Mo Wen would probably not be able to last much longer.
As the Day Scorpion Familiar thought of this, he was pleased. The Day Scorpion Familiar assumed that Mo Wen was on the verge of not being able to resist his attack, so he frenziedly accelerated the activation of the power in his body to draw more Power of Heaven and Earth. He believed that with just a little more, he would be able to make Mo Wen explode.
As time passed, the situation that Day Scorpion Familiar expected had yet to occur. Mo Wen showed no signs of exploding. Instead, his aura converged, becoming more and more mysterious. He was like a mineral in fire that was being refined to its finest.
Day Scorpion Familiar’s energy was depleting. As time went by, the usage of the energy in his body was too much. He had the cultivation at the pinnacle of the sacred level. The power in his body was unpredictable, far exceeding that of a common sacred level strong practitioner. However, right now, he actually felt that he had been sucked dry.
He merely mobilized the Power of Heaven and Earth. Yet he had actually almost exhausted his own energy. The Day Scorpion Familiar could not even fathom how much Power of Heaven and Earth Mo Wen had actually devoured.
The Power of Heaven and Earth was mobilized by the activation of Day Scorpion Familiar’s own energy. Its might was definitely at least ten times stronger than that of Day Scorpion Familiar’s power.
At least ten times stronger! It was equivalent to all the power possessed by a Realm of Emptiness strong practitioner.
“B*stard, are you a black hole?”
The Day Scorpion Familiar was finally completely enraged, and he shouted at Mo Wen. This goddamn Mo Wen was, without a doubt, his nemesis. Once the Day Scorpion Familiar exhausted his energy, there would not be a need for this battle to continue. Not only would the Day Scorpion Familiar lose, but his energy would also drop to its lowest point as well. By then, it would be a problem whether he could even secure second place.
However, if he didn’t continue and severed this cycle abruptly, he would be severely injured. Xin Wuji would be killed instantly by the power of the recoil. Then, it would not be about ranking anymore. Instead, his true identity would be exposed instantaneously.
Right now, it was difficult for him to either advance or retreat.
Mo Wen seemed to have heard the shouting from the Day Scorpion Familiar. He opened his eyes slowly. Two beams of golden lights shot out from Mo Wen’s eyes, as though his pupils were two brilliant suns.
Mo Wen’s mouth curled into a playful grin. He said leisurely, “I’m not a black hole. However, I am truly grateful to you this time. I did not expect that you would help me to break through.”
Mo Wen stood up. The next moment, his aura changed drastically, and a terrifying golden light burst out from his body. Then, an unparalleled flame erupted from his body. The golden flame was like an ocean wave, flooding the challenge ring in an instant.
The flame was rather terrifying, with pure strength and Yang Qi. It was not at all weaker than the flame produced from the fledgling stage of profound meaning for fire. Instead, it was better.
The ninth level of the Nine Yang Divine Technique. Mo Wen had finally cultivated his Nine Yang Divine Technique to the pinnacle of the ninth level. Right now, his power of fire was on par with the spiritual fire mastered by the Primordial Soul Realm immortal cultivators.
Besides, since he had broken through to the ninth level of the Nine Yang Divine Technique, it caused his Nine Yang Genuine Qi and Nine Yin Genuine Qi to be balanced once again. The Yin and Yang completed each other and circulated in harmony, generating an endless flow of Qi in Mo Wen’s body.
The balance between the Yin and Yang once again appeared in Mo Wen’s body. On top of that, they had undergone enrichment in their qualities. Considering all the factors, Mo Wen’s cultivation had finally reached a great breakthrough.
The aura on his body exploded like a volcano. It grew layer by layer, instantly reaching an astonishing level.
The Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm. Mo Wen had finally broken through to the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm!
