Golden Crow Sun-Plunder
Lin Xin Tong's innate incurable Fatal Meridian is like a knot in her life. It is rooted in Lin Xin Tong's body, penetrating every inch of her flesh and blood. It usually lies dormant, but once it is nourished, it will sprout and devour Lin Xin Tong's life.
Now, as the cold air continued to invade Lin Xin Tong's body, she felt colder and colder, while her Innate Yin Meridian, like wild grass nourished by rain and dew, began to grow wildly.
Lin Xin Tong's pace suddenly slowed down.
Cold, bone-chilling cold, cold to the marrow.
She shrank her slender body, looked up, and saw only a vast, icy plain stretching out before her, with no end in sight.
She recalled the endless, recurring dreams she experienced during the trials of her inner demons.
Apart from the second dream, in which she and the boy traveled the world hand in hand, found a way to mend their severed Fatal Meridian, and ultimately achieved great cultivation, living as long as the sun and moon, the rest of her dreams were filled with endless death and repression.
She "woke up" again and again, but after "waking up," she found that she was still unable to escape the dream. The dream was boundless, making it impossible to tell when it was a dream and when it was waking.
That kind of despair is probably similar to what I feel now...
Behind Lin Xin Tong, high in the sky, there was a faint shadow looking down at the solitary figure on the icy plain.
Lin Xin Tong sensed the shadow and turned around slightly, but at that moment, the shadow vanished in the wind.
Then, a faint female voice rang in Lin Xin Tong's ear. "This icy plain is like Fatal Meridian in your body. If you only use your internal energy, you won't last until the end. If you burn your life force, you can go further, but you may die from exhaustion. Have you thought it through?"
Lin Xin Tong's eyelashes fluttered slightly. "You are..."
The shadow that suddenly appeared in the wind was somewhat similar to the Ancient Empress she had seen in the painting on the third floor of the God Descending Tower, but... it also seemed different.
This shadow is not in a dream, nor in a painting; she truly exists in this world.
She was the only person Lin Xin Tong saw in the God Descending Tower, besides the other trial participants.
"I am the Artifact Spirit the God Descending Tower."
The woman's clear, cold voice came from the wind.
"Artifact Spirit ..." Lin Xin Tong realized in her heart, yes, such a divine object should have Artifact Spirit. "If I cross this icy plain, will I be able to see the opportunity to reconnect my Fatal Meridian?"
"No!" the woman's voice was cold. "But I can bring you closer to that step."
Just closer?
Lin Xin Tong sighed softly. Dressed in white, she seemed to blend into the surrounding icy plain. Her long, black hair fell from her jade-like face. Her eyes were closed, and her eyelashes trembled slightly, making her look like a fairy in the snow.
Closer? Then let me get even closer!
Lin Xin Tong tightened her thin clothes and braved the wind and snow, resolutely continuing on her way.
The path of martial arts originally had no path; it was through the great perseverance of martial artists that they carved out this path from the void, overcoming all obstacles and forging ahead.
Once you embark on the journey, there will be no regrets...
The second level of the God Descending Tower on a vast, desolate wasteland!
Howl--!
A sharp cry, like the cry of Feng Ming, pierced the sky. A dazzling light shot out from the cliff, and within the light, the figure of a Youth in Green could be faintly seen, stepping through the void like a bolt of lightning.
The Youth in Green was none other than Yi Yun. The movement Movement Technique he was using was the <Golden Crow Sun-Plunder> he had obtained in the third level of the God Descending Tower.
For an average person, it would take at least half a year to even begin to grasp the basics of the Golden Crow Sun-Plunder technique; this is the cultivation speed of a prodigy.
However, Yi Yun possessed a near-perfect Pure Yang Body, had mastered the pure Yang cultivation technique, and had the assistance of the Purple Crystal. His cultivation of the <Golden Crow Sun-Plunder> technique progressed by leaps and bounds.
His body streaked through the air like a golden rainbow, landing on a cliff. He used the mountaintop for leverage and soared back into the sky!
His figure was like the rising sun, unstoppable!
After cultivating the Golden Crow Sun-Plunder technique, Yi Yun's speed was now incomparable to what it used to be.
During the rapid flight, Yi Yun's eyes flashed like lightning, and he spotted an Iron Winged Eagle flying in the sky.
In this wild wilderness, many wild beasts have their own territories. This Iron Winged Eagle is the overlord of this small patch of sky. It patrols here, but now, a tiny human has suddenly invaded its territory, defying its authority.
The Iron Winged Eagle was enraged. It let out a long cry and charged towards Yi Yun.
The Iron Winged Eagle is known for its speed. When it flies through the air, it is like a black lightning bolt. Its wings are like knives that can cut through mountains!
Seeing the Iron Winged Eagle charging towards him, Yi Yun's eyes lit up. He flipped his hand, and the Great Cang Bow appeared in his hand. He unleashed his Movement Technique in the air, his speed increasing faster and faster, as if his body had merged into the blazing sunlight!
"Whistle--"
The Iron Winged Eagle spread its sharp claws and grabbed at Yi Yun. Yi Yun drew his bow and nocked an arrow in mid-air. The arrow in his hand was the Chasing Wind Arrows. It was just an arrow made by the archery family of the Tai'a Divine Kingdom. In the Tianyuan Realm, it would seem ordinary. However, at this moment, when Yi Yun poured Pure Yang Power into the arrow, it condensed the divine light of the sun and seemed to be sublimated.
Collapse!
The bowstring trembled, shattering the clouds!
The Chasing Wind Arrows shot out swiftly, this arrow infused with Yi Yun's pure Yang law, like a meteor falling from the sky, piercing through the void.
A terrifying shriek pierced the sky as the arrow swept past the Iron Winged Eagle's body at incredible speed!
The Iron Winged Eagle remained poised to pounce on Yi Yun, but the moment the arrow pierced its body, its body, comparable to divine iron, exploded in mid-air!
Call out!
The Chasing Wind Arrows pierced through the Iron Winged Eagle, instantly flying dozens of miles, skimming across a deep canyon, and striking a mountain peak directly.
Boom!
A violent explosion rang out. Yi Yun's arrow pierced through the Iron Winged Eagle and then blasted a large hole in the mountain peak!
The essence of archery can be summed up in one word: speed!
When Yi Yun uses the <Golden Crow Sun-Plunder> Movement Technique and reaches his maximum speed, he then draws his bow and nocks an arrow, adding this speed to the Chasing Wind Arrows. The power of the arrow he shoots becomes unimaginable!
Even Yi Yun himself was quite surprised to see such a terrifying arrow. His body spun in the air, grabbed the Iron Winged Eagle's corpse, and flew down from the sky.
Boom!
The Iron Winged Eagle's corpse crashed heavily to the ground. Yi Yun's figure floated down, his spiritual power connecting with the beast's corpse. He closed his eyes and began to circulate another Secret Manual he had obtained from the third floor of the God Descending Tower —the <Myriad Beast Catalog>!
The complete version of the <Myriad Beast Catalog> contains far more information than what Yi Yun had previously cultivated, which explains many of the doubts in Yi Yun's mind.
Using Purple Crystal to condense the beast seal of a wild beast is certainly twice as effective, but the flaws inherent in the secret technique itself cannot be compensated for by Purple Crystal.
Now, with the complete Jade Slip of the <Myriad Beast Catalog>, these are no longer problems. (To be continued~^~)
