Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

With a thousand contribution points left, Ling Xiao plans to save them for now.

In case Lin Haoyu has another martial soul equivalent to the Steel-armored Bull Demon Martial Soul, he would have enough contribution points for an exchange.

After all, one must plan for the long term to avoid immediate worries.

Back at his residence, Ling Xiao shut himself alone in the hut.

Due to a breakthrough in his cultivation, he plans to try fusing more Thunder Elemental Jade and Magma Elemental Jade to enhance the combat power of his Lightning Battle Form and Lava Battle Body.

Previously, he had a total of sixty-four pieces of Thunder Elemental Jade, using thirty, which left him with thirty-four pieces.

This time, he purchased thirty pieces of Magma Elemental Jade.

There was no choice; he wanted to buy more, but this was the limit.

At the Eight Immortals Mountain, disciples of the Lower Baxian Mountain face significant restrictions when exchanging resources with contribution points.

To ensure a more stable fusion of the Elemental Jade, Ling Xiao first refined dozens of ”Fusion Pills.”

These pills were created by Ling Xiao, inspired by his own process of fusing Elemental Jade and descriptions from the Eternal Divine Alchemy Scripture.

The pill’s grade is not high, but it is very practical.

It allows Elemental Jade to fuse more easily with the body and lessens the pain.

Cultivation isn’t about suffering; he doesn’t enjoy enduring pain each time.

After handling these matters, Ling Xiao began fusing Thunder Elemental Jade.

Swallowing the thirty-first piece of Thunder Elemental Jade, along with the Fusion Pill, the fusion felt surprisingly easy, with no obstacles.

In just two to three minutes, the fusion was completed.

Ling Xiao could clearly feel a boost in his thunder energy, though small, it was indeed noticeable.

Then came the fusion of Magma Elemental Jade.

His Lava Battle Body was formed from a unique magma, so it hadn’t been through Magma Elemental Jade before.

Initially, he worried there might be a conflict.

But it seemed he was overly concerned.

The process was even easier than he expected.

The first piece of Magma Elemental Jade was easily fused, feeling much like the process of the thirty-first piece of Thunder Elemental Jade.

With such a smooth beginning, Ling Xiao was quite pleased, so he continued fusing.

The thirty-second piece of Thunder Elemental Jade!

The second piece of Magma Elemental Jade!

Time seemed to fly by during cultivation.

In the hut, Ling Xiao paid no attention to external matters, focusing solely on fusing Elemental Jade.

When he fused forty pieces of Thunder Elemental Jade and ten pieces of Magma Elemental Jade, the difficulty of fusion had noticeably increased.

However, with the Fusion Pills, it remained manageable.

To simplify the fusion, Ling Xiao entered a Child-God State, making his body more comfortable.

He intended to see what his current limit is.

Whether he could directly break through to an advanced battle body.

He knew that even the effects of an intermediate battle body were quite powerful; an advanced battle body must be even more terrifying, so he was extremely excited about it.

Once he reached the fusion limit, he planned to begin cultivating the Netherworld Ghost Claw.

The Netherworld Ghost Claw has only two movements, so it should be easier to cultivate compared to the Falling Star Sword Art.

As a must-have method for enhancing combat power, Ling Xiao naturally wouldn’t miss it.

Moreover, the process of cultivating martial skills significantly aids in improving cultivation levels.

After completing these two tasks, Ling Xiao planned to make a trip to the Tianlong Trade Company to see if there were any Soul Gems and inquire about the movements of the Demon Shadow Sect.

As the so-called Bloodsucking Sacrifice of the Demon Shadow Sect was drawing near, Ling Xiao felt a strong sense of unease.

If he couldn’t completely eliminate the influence of the Demon Shadow Sect in the Eight Immortals County, he felt he might not be able to cultivate with a clear conscience.

He methodically recorded his arrangements, clearly knowing what needed to be done.

However, plans never seem to keep up with change.

When Ling Xiao was about to fuse the forty-first piece of Thunder Elemental Jade, suddenly, the Shen Dian informed him that Feng Ru had arrived, seeming quite anxious.

Ling Xiao knew well that Feng Ru wouldn’t easily disturb him without something important, as she was aware of his cultivation.

Thoughtfully, he stopped cultivating and opened the hut.

”Senior Sister, what happened?”

Ling Xiao asked with a frown.

Feng Ru hurriedly said, ”I’m not entirely sure of the details. The shopkeeper Lin Fengyuan from the Tianlong Trade Company sent a message saying that during a delivery, they discovered a seriously injured martial artist.

Upon inquiry, it turned out to be someone from the Ling Family in Yuhua Town.”

What!

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao immediately thought of Mo Fei Yu.

”Could it be that Mo Fei Yu went to Yuhua Town?”

Ling Xiao asked.

”Probably not; Mo Fei Yu is reportedly still in seclusion for reflection. After experiencing the family’s destruction, he’s become calmer and made great advancements in cultivation, so it’s unlikely to be him.”

Feng Ru shook her head and replied.

”Regardless, I will first go to Eight Immortals County City.”

After speaking, Ling Xiao flew down the mountain.

Worried that Ling Xiao might face danger and recognizing her own lack of strength, Feng Ru went to find Lin Ruoxian.

Lin Ruoxian was much stronger than her and had a favorable interest in Ling Xiao, so she could surely assist him.

At this time, Ling Xiao had already arrived outside the city gate of Eight Immortals County City through a teleportation array he had set up privately.

However, the more anxious a person is, the more trouble they tend to encounter.

Outside this familiar East City Gate, there wasn’t a single person.

If it were normal times, Ling Xiao would easily detect the strangeness.

But today, he overlooked it.

The mishap involving his family stirred anxiety in him; after all, they were his first group on the Xuanwu Continent, his home.

There was also Ling Jiaojiao, whom he cared about deeply.

By the time he noticed something amiss, he was already surrounded by over a dozen people.

To Ling Xiao’s astonishment, the cultivation level of each of these individuals had reached the First Layer Hell Pinnacle of the Yin-Yang Realm!

Among them, two were actually First Transformation Martial Artists.

Who on earth had such power to mobilize so many assassins against him?

The opponents didn’t waste any words and attacked after encircling him.

Ling Xiao, even less willing to waste time, aimed to head toward the Tianlong Trade Company urgently and didn’t hide his strength.

A terrifying aura burst forth abruptly as his Intermediate Thunder and Lightning War Body unleashed its terrifying power.

”Get lost! You really shouldn’t block my way at this time!”

Thunder Falling Star Sword Technique, Second Movement—Thunderbolt Heavenly Fire!

The longsword swung down, and dozens of arcs of sword qi emitted thunderous roars, falling like heavenly fire.

Out of a dozen assassins, only the two martial artists with a First Transformation First Layer Hell Pinnacle cultivation survived; the rest were all slain.

Ling Xiao pulled off their masks—two unfamiliar faces.

He guessed these individuals couldn’t afford to show any weaknesses, so how could they let him recognize them?

He didn’t even bother asking questions and directly used the Three-Leaf Demon Eye·Soul Capture!

Scouring the soul sea of the two assassins, he retrieved information about the mastermind.

He then ended their lives with one final sword strike.
