Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 67: Chapter 67 Cold-Pond Golden Fluid_1

As Ling Xiao channeled Gang Qi into his Mountain and River Martial Soul, he immediately entered the ”Soul Entry” state.

At that moment, his vision became even more terrifying.

With just one glance, he had grasped the terrain within a ten-mile radius.

What was that?

A hint of excitement flashed in Ling Xiao’s eyes.

In his sight, an ancient building had appeared.

According to the Mountain and River Martial Soul’s analysis, if he escaped there, he would have a survival rate of over ninety percent.

Ling Xiao didn’t know how the Mountain and River Martial Soul had calculated this survival rate.

But he could guess.

The building, from the outside, looked like a coiled-up Divine Dragon.

It probably had some peculiarities.

Inside the building was a basement; the entrance was very small. His stature would allow him to get in with no problem, but for the massive Great Strength Divine Ape, it would be incredibly difficult.

Without overthinking it, Ling Xiao sped up and proceeded at full speed. Taking advantage of the fact that the Great Strength Divine Ape had not yet realized his intention, he had to be quick.

Of course, in the process of confusing the Great Strength Divine Ape, he chose a more complex route, a bit like a headless fly crashing around.

However, in reality, there was only one target.

The Great Strength Divine Ape, seeing Ling Xiao’s unlucky demeanor, let out a proud chuckle.

”Laugh it up, laugh it up, you won’t be laughing soon!”

Ling Xiao was truly desperate, heedless of the consequences, he swallowed another Gang Qi Pill. After all, as long as he could survive, he could obtain more Gang Qi Pills.

If he died, all the Gang Qi Pills in the world would be of no use.

The Great Strength Divine Ape was chasing behind him, but it seemed very relaxed, not speeding up at all, and sometimes even chasing after butterflies it saw flying by.

Clearly, the well-fed Great Strength Divine Ape was now just playing around.

Ten miles!

Eight miles!

Six miles!

...

Ling Xiao was getting closer and closer to that building.

Finally, when he was only about a few hundred meters away from the ancient building, the Great Strength Divine Ape panicked.

It seemed to sense the terror of that building, that it would hinder its pursuit, so it suddenly quickened its pace.

Previously, Ling Xiao was a full six miles away from the Great Strength Divine Ape.

But in just that moment, as Ling Xiao rushed forward a hundred meters, the other sprinted five miles!

This speed was truly terrifying.

The Great Strength Divine Ape couldn’t fly, but a single leap covered several miles; no wonder it was never worried Ling Xiao could escape, it only became frantic at the sight of that building.

Ling Xiao had long known the terrifying speed of the Great Strength Divine Ape, but he was still taken aback.

Nevertheless, he couldn’t worry about it anymore, he just went all out.

He popped the last Gang Qi Pill into his mouth.

He charged out like a madman.

”Boom!”

Just as he was charging out, the Great Strength Divine Ape landed where he had just been standing.

The ground cracked open with countless fissures, spreading outwards.

Yet strangely, when these cracks approached the dragon-shaped building, they could no longer move forward.

”Huff—”

Lying on the ground, completely out of strength, Ling Xiao realized he had entered the dragon-shaped building.

Although the Great Strength Divine Ape was furious, repeatedly attempting to charge in, it was ultimately blocked by an invisible force every time.

”Awoo—!”

After staring fixedly at Ling Xiao for a while, the Great Strength Divine Ape simply lay down to sleep right at the entrance of the dragon-shaped building.

It seemed to mean, ”If you dare, stay in there forever, kid; otherwise, I’ll gobble you up in one bite!”

At that moment, Ling Xiao no longer had the energy to bicker with that creature.

He looked at the pitch-black tunnel inside the building.

After pondering for a moment, he stood up and slowly walked in.

Although his body was extremely exhausted due to the massive energy consumption, he feared that lying at the entrance of the building to rest might be dangerous.

So, he wanted to find a safer place.

Besides, he still had the strength to fight if necessary; it wasn’t like he was completely defenseless. As long as another one of those terrifying Level 8 Monster Beasts didn’t show up, otherwise, he might as well choose to end his own life.

The pitch-black tunnel could not impede Ling Xiao.

With his Mountain and River Martial Soul, he could still see in the darkness.

”This building is a bit strange.”

After walking for a while, Ling Xiao was surprised to find that the walls of the building were not made of bricks or stone, nor were they metal.

The material looked more like the bones and skin of animals!

It’s just that they had hardened already.

Even more bizarre than the building itself were the many white bones he encountered along the way.

There were bones of wild beasts, Monster Beasts, and humans—it was hard to imagine how many living creatures had died here.

It appeared that they had decomposed into bones quite some time ago, as turning completely into white bones would otherwise not be possible without a lengthy period of decay.

”Ssss—! It’s so cold!”

Ling Xiao suddenly shivered.

To his astonishment, he discovered that at some point, the tunnel had turned into layers of ice.

The temperature had dropped sharply, and he had to use Gang Qi to keep warm.

It was also fortunate that the third Gang Qi Pill he had taken earlier had not been completely depleted, otherwise he might have frozen to death.

About a shichen had passed.

Ling Xiao simply knelt down!

Why did he kneel?

Because he saw a pond!

This pond was emitting wisps of cold air, filled with a vast number of Xue Lian, with ages ranging from a hundred years to two hundred years, even five hundred and over a thousand years!

Of course, if it were just that, he wouldn’t have knelt down.

After all, although Xue Lian was an excellent ingredient for alchemy, he would have been merely pleased at best.

The key point was that the water in the Cold Pond wasn’t water at all!

It was Gold Fluid!

He couldn’t be mistaken—the pool that was steaming with cold air was clearly made of liquid gold, and there must be at least a million taels of liquid gold in there.

While he wasn’t the type to be overly greedy,

let’s not forget that practicing the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique required the consumption of gold.

Having stumbled upon such a peculiar Cold Pond, was it any wonder he was elated?

How does the saying go?

Fortune comes after surviving great disasters!

It seems there is no bluff in those words.

Ling Xiao escaped from the jaws of the Great Strength Divine Ape, blundered into this building, and then discovered this peculiar Cold-Pond Golden Fluid.

This is what you call luck!

Not to mention the necessity of Cold-Pond Golden Fluid for advancing the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique,

just the fact that the Cold-Pond Golden Fluid was capable of nurturing golden-colored Snow Lotus, and that there were as many as ten thousand-year Golden Snow Lotuses,

not to mention the many five hundred and eight hundred-year-old Golden Snow Lotuses, was enough to prove the benefits of the Cold-Pond Golden Fluid.

As Ling Xiao looked at the Cold-Pond Golden Fluid, his Mountain and River Martial Soul had already begun to analyze the composition and benefits of the Cold-Pond Golden Fluid.

The conclusion was that this substance not only had no harm to the body but was also an excellent material for tempering the body.

According to the Mountain and River Martial Soul, this Cold-Pond Golden Fluid was actually a body-tempering divine fluid produced within members of the Golden Divine Dragon Clan.

It was precisely this fluid that endowed the Golden Divine Dragon Clan with the most formidable strength and resilience among the Dragon Clan.

Was there any need for doubt?

Ling Xiao excitedly exclaimed and then directly jumped into the Cold-Pond Golden Fluid.

The moment he entered the Cold-Pond Golden Fluid, his originally exhausted body seemed to come back to life, no longer showing any sign of fatigue.
