Overcoming Tong Yuan

Ding Ling's comprehension of the Spirit Phoenix Breathing Method was profound.

He had reached the Perfect Fulfillment Realm.

Because the Spirit Phoenix Breathing Method had penetrated deep into his bones and instincts, a noble aura naturally emanated from him.

This had improved his charm!

However, his strength and agility still required medicinal ingredients to support them.

"The breathing method is like this. What about internal energy?"

Ding Ling pondered this.

"External techniques directly extract strength, but they also require timely supplements of meat. Since the breathing method has limitless potential, one can take medicinal ingredients while continuously improving oneself.

What about internal energy?"

Ding Ling had no idea.

Because he was still struggling in the Historical World.

He also did not know when he would be able to open the passage to the Martial Arts World.

However, even the Spirit Phoenix Breathing Method made him feel that it was extraordinary, allowing him to sense its limitless potential!

It was definitely a top-tier cultivation method that surpassed the Thirty-Six Heavens Gang Axe Technique and the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear Technique.

This did not mean that it surpassed them in difficulty, but rather in potential.

The Thirty-Six Heavens Gang Axe Technique could only increase strength, agility, and physique to a limited extent.

The Spirit Phoenix Breathing Method was different. The strength, agility, and other attributes it could improve were absolutely far beyond those of the Thirty-Six Heavens Gang Axe Technique.

However, the Thirty-Six Heavens Gang Axe Technique was originally a technique-based offensive method.

Naturally, it was different from a cultivation method like the Spirit Phoenix Breathing Method.

"You successfully comprehended it?!"

Tong Yuan's eyes widened until they looked like bronze bells.

"...!!"

Zhao Yun was speechless.

He felt as if he had suffered ten thousand points of critical damage!

How difficult was the Spirit Phoenix Breathing Method?

It was even more profound and unfathomable, more difficult to understand, than the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear Technique.

It was like an ordinary person learning the language of immortals. To see through it was as difficult as ascending to heaven!

Zhao Yun had suffered greatly to learn the Spirit Phoenix Breathing Method back then. He had no idea how many medicinal baths he had soaked in every day.

If his Master's stockpile had not been sufficient, he probably would not have lasted until he learned the Spirit Phoenix Breathing Method!

But even so,

after more than a decade,

his Spirit Phoenix Breathing Method still had not reached mastery! He had never been able to enter the Spirit Phoenix Avatar Realm!

But what about Ding Ling?

Looking at Ding Ling, whose body now possessed an inexplicably lofty and noble aura,

Zhao Yun felt a breath catch in his throat, nearly suffocating himself!

"Not bad."

Ding Ling was very honest and had never considered hiding it. He still hoped to learn more martial arts and techniques from Tong Yuan.

The more techniques, the better.

Because techniques could directly increase his strength, agility, and physique!

"Gasp!"

Although they had already determined that Ding Ling had successfully cultivated it, after actually receiving confirmation,

Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun still could not help inhaling sharply.

They looked at Ding Ling as if they were looking at a monster!

"He even managed to cultivate the Spirit Phoenix Breathing Method from the Ancient Era so quickly! He's truly too powerful."

Tong Yuan felt as though he were listening to an absurd tale.

"If I hadn't witnessed it with my own eyes, even if a thousand or ten thousand people had told me about this with absolute certainty, I still would never have believed it."

Because it shattered all common sense!

Tong Yuan's worldview and outlook on life truly collapsed into dust at this moment!

He felt that his worldview and outlook on life needed to be rebuilt!

And the culprit behind all this was the Ding Ling standing before him!

"That's right."

Zhao Xiaoyu was also clicking her tongue in amazement.

"How long has it been? He has actually surpassed Second Brother's decades of arduous study!"

"As expected of the general."

Zhao Bingxuan had become utterly enamored with Ding Ling.

Especially after seeing Tong Yuan and the others' opinions of Ding Ling, she felt an even more genuine sense of satisfaction in her heart!

This was her general, after all!

"Demonstrate it."

Tong Yuan could hardly wait.

Ding Ling nodded.

Then his entire body seemed to transform into an Ancient Era Spirit Phoenix. He walked across the earth with both palms spread like flapping wings. With every advance and retreat, he seemed just like a Spirit Phoenix soaring through the nine heavens and looking down upon all living beings and the earth. That overbearing, noble aura swept in all directions like a tidal wave.

Tong Yuan and the others were shaken until their pupils widened.

"He really did it!"

"Ah. Compared to Ding Ling, I feel like I'm just a mediocrity!"

Zhao Yun sighed, feeling ashamed of his inferiority.

"I truly am not qualified to teach you, Ding Ling."

Tong Yuan smiled bitterly.

"From now on, let us simply exchange pointers as fellow martial artists. I look forward to the day you become a Martial God!"

He did not bestow upon Ding Ling titles such as Spear God.

Instead, he directly determined that Ding Ling would become a Martial God of his generation in the future!

This showed how completely Tong Yuan acknowledged Ding Ling at this moment.

Achievement Medal obtained: You have completely convinced Tong Yuan.

Description: Your talent has left even Tong Yuan, an unparalleled Spear God, feeling inferior and utterly shocked! He has even begun considering letting you learn the martial arts of every school under heaven and become a true Martial God!

Seeing this notification,

Ding Ling's eyes lit up.

Moreover, through the Achievement Medal he had obtained from Tong Yuan, he had already confirmed it.

Those who possessed an E-Rank Achievement Medal generally also had an ordinary medal.

Pan Feng was like this.

Tong Yuan was like this.

If Tong Yuan is truly willing to let me learn the martial arts of every school under heaven, won't I become powerful enough to defy the heavens?

Ding Ling was filled with anticipation.

But because he had continuously improved time and again,

he now felt exceptionally hungry.

After conversing with Tong Yuan and the others for a while,

he accompanied Zhao Yun into the deep mountains and old forests, where they killed a tiger and a wild boar.

They dragged them back and roasted them directly.

After eating his fill and drinking enough,

Ding Ling felt full of vitality and energy! He was indescribably refreshed and comfortable!

"Sure enough, after rapidly improving, I need to replenish myself with meat."

I've also discovered something else. After improving in the game and then improving again in reality, it seems that the energy required is reduced considerably.

Ding Ling had eaten genuine meat.

Moreover, whether it was the beef from earlier or the tiger and boar meat now, the quality was all extremely high.

It far surpassed the quality of bread, instant noodles, and beef jerky.

Besides, the vast majority of the food he ate consisted of bread, instant noodles, and similar foods.

"Looks like I need to eat more."

Ding Ling pondered this.

He could bring his strength back from the game.

Presumably, he could also bring some energy back.

It was just impossible to bring all of it back. If he replenished more energy, then the amount of energy he needed to replenish in reality might be greatly reduced.

Ding Ling decided to try it later.

If that was really the case, then he could gorge himself in the game in the future.

After all, his martial arts progress was extremely fast in the game, and his digestion was exceptionally strong.

Just like now, Zhao Yun watched as the vast majority of the tiger and boar meat went into Ding Ling's stomach and could not help clicking his tongue.

"You can really eat!"

"Being able to eat is a blessing."

Tong Yuan watched Ding Ling with a strange light in his eyes.

"When I was young, I could eat half a cow! That was the period when my strength improved the fastest. You can eat so much now, which shows that your potential is limitless. Your strength will certainly advance by leaps and bounds for some time to come."

He was very envious.

"Eat more. I look forward to the day when I hear the name of Martial God Ding Ling resounding throughout the world."
