At the top of the Demon Suppressing Tower, candlelight flickered beneath a crescent moon.
In the empty hall, Lin Guanhuo sat alone before a wooden table.
His eyes were tightly shut, and he didn't move. A Martial Artist's inner energy flowed outward, transforming into wisps of faintly visible qi that circled around Lin Guanhuo.
These wisps of qi already carried the faintest trace of Spiritual Qi.
Spiritual Qi was the source of a Martial Artist's true transcendent power. In this world, all things under heaven possessed Spiritual Qi.
Martial Dao broke through the limits of the human body, allowing one to absorb Spiritual Qi from the world and use it for oneself. Powerful Martial Artists could lay siege to cities and raze fortresses, while the mighty experts at the pinnacle of Martial Dao each possessed the terrifying destructive power of a nuclear bomb from Taichuan's previous life.
However, only experts of the Gangqi Realm—the realm after Blood Quenching—could fully comprehend and wield Spiritual Qi.
Lin Guanhuo was now releasing his inner energy. As he continued to comprehend the Fourth-Rank martial art Demon Suppressing Saber, he had only just managed to brush against the embryonic form of Spiritual Qi.
Those who master Martial Dao can condense a saber from Spiritual Qi! With that kind of power, a single slash can wipe out a city and slaughter ten thousand enemies!
For now... I can only use my true qi and inner energy to condense a saber... But that's enough!
Lin Guanhuo pondered.
At that moment, anyone present would have watched in astonishment as the wisps of energy circling around Lin Guanhuo began to gather, floating before him.
Though they were hazy and intangible, one could still make out the shape of the energy: it looked like a long saber!
