Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill Perfected!

Three minutes later.

The seven-colored spiritual light in the sky was absorbed entirely by the golden bone on Qin Shuang's chest.

Qin Shuang stood at the mouth of the stone crevice, his heart shaken beyond words. He tore open his chest robes, but the golden '§' rune inside the golden bone on his chest had already vanished—he couldn't sense it at all.

Everything was as before, as if what had just happened was a dream, something that had never occurred!

"Young friend, congratulations! Forging a golden bone and triggering the 'Seven-Colored Cloud Haze Descends with Purple Thunder' Heaven and Earth Anomaly—your future achievements will be boundless!"

Just then, Tiger Wanderer approached slowly, stopping a zhang away from Qin Shuang, a look of approval in his eyes.

"All thanks to Senior's help!"

"For this aid, I will surely repay you handsomely in the future!"

Qin Shuang was also overjoyed at the moment. He felt that after most of his bones had become golden bones, his physical strength had surged explosively, incomparable to before!

"I'm helping you, but I'm also helping myself. When your strength is sufficient, helping me retrieve an item from that Dao Platform Secret Realm will be repayment enough!" Tiger Wanderer laughed warmly, his tone gentle.

Before Qin Shuang, Tiger Wanderer wore no mask.

At this moment.

Tiger Wanderer was also filled with anticipation. Seeing Qin Shuang's potential, he had changed his address from 'little friend' to 'young friend.' He studied Qin Shuang for a moment and said, "Young friend, after absorbing the spiritual milk and forging most of your golden bones, your combat power is already comparable to a martial artist just entering the Divine Wheel Realm. If you can forge your entire body into golden bones and raise your cultivation to the peak of the Divine Wheel Realm, helping me retrieve that item will be a sure thing!"

"Right now, too many experts outside want to capture you. To make things easier, take this mask for use!"

As he spoke, Tiger Wanderer produced a mask as thin as a cicada's wing, handed it to Qin Shuang, and instructed him on how to use it.

"Thank you so much for this, Brother..."

Qin Shuang took the mask and immediately clasped his hands in gratitude.

With a mask, changing his identity would indeed be much more convenient.

"Don't mention it. I also want to get that treasure from the secret realm as soon as possible!"

Tiger Wanderer waved his hand, studied Qin Shuang, then pointed at a nearby rock crevice and said, "The seven-colored cloud haze and purple thunder anomaly you just triggered will definitely draw sect experts! This place is no longer safe! We need to leave quickly!"

"Alright!"

Qin Shuang glanced at the corpse of the Fierce Tiger Beast King at the foot of the cliff, a look of regret in his eyes. He didn't know when he'd encounter another Fierce Tiger Beast King. Seeing this, Tiger Wanderer said, "I've already dug out the inner pill. Only the carcass remains, and there's no time to take it. I know a place with many fierce tigers—I'll take you to kill a few later!"

Qin Shuang nodded at this.

Tiger Wanderer swept Qin Shuang up with his cultivation, and the two vanished in an instant.

The next day.

The morning sun had just risen.

"Young friend, I have to leave now. If you want to go out, head east from here, and you'll reach Qingzhou City. But I suggest you lie low here for a while."

"In a year, I'll come find you again. Don't forget our deal. You can also come to Sword Worship Manor of the Tianwu Dynasty to look for me."

Six hundred li from the Spiritual Milk Cave's great mountain, beneath a towering cliff, Tiger Wanderer looked toward the direction of the Spiritual Milk Mountain and spoke to Qin Shuang.

"Thank you for all your help, Brother. I'll keep this kindness in my heart!"

"If you haven't come in a year, I'll go to Sword Worship Manor to find you!"

Qin Shuang clasped his hands to Tiger Wanderer. Golden sunlight streamed through the gaps in the branches and leaves, tingeing his body with a hint of gold.

Senior Tiger Wanderer had truly been good to him—not only helping him repel enemies and killing two Fierce Tiger Beast Kings for him, but also preparing an alchemy furnace for him. Helping him retrieve the treasure from that Dao Platform Secret Realm was only right.

"Mm!"

Tiger Wanderer nodded to Qin Shuang, then his figure flickered as he turned and vanished into the forest.

"Refine these two Fierce Tiger Beast Kings into Qi and Blood Essence!"

"I'll perfect the Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill first!"

Qin Shuang watched Tiger Wanderer leave, silently planning in his heart.

His most urgent task right now was to use the Simplification System to perfect the Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill and boost his martial strength. Because when the Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill reached Great Accomplishment, the boost to Qi and Blood was extremely vast. Advancing it to perfection would surely make that boost even stronger!

Two days later.

Qin Shuang sat cross-legged in the cave, swallowing the Qi and Blood Essence of a Fierce Tiger Beast King from the stone hollow in his hand.

[Ding! You have met the requirements: kill one Fierce Tiger Beast King, eat one Fierce Tiger Beast King, and refine one Tiger Pill. The Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill has advanced to Perfection!]

[Simplification: Kill three Fierce Tiger Beast Kings, eat three Fierce Tiger Beast Kings, and refine three Tiger Pills to advance to the next tier!]

At that moment, two system notification sounds rang out in Qin Shuang's mind.

A torrent of information surged into his Sea of Consciousness, merging with his awareness.

It was the complete insights and cultivation techniques of the Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill at perfection.

In an instant, Qin Shuang felt as if he had been practicing the Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill for thirty or forty years!

At the same time.

A surge of qi and blood, far more vast than before, appeared within his limbs and bones!

"Boom!"

The terrifying qi and blood coursed through Qin Shuang's limbs and bones, surging with immense power, like a tidal wave crashing!

Qin Shuang immediately activated the perfected Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill, channeling the amplified qi and blood within his body to begin nourishing the bones of his hands!

As the qi and blood poured in.

Qin Shuang sensed that the bones of his palms were shimmering with a radiant glow!

A fearsome aura roiled through the cave, lifting Qin Shuang's black hair and robes, sending them billowing. The temperature inside the cave soared sharply, turning it into a massive furnace!

With the perfected Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill in motion, the speed of circulating qi and blood was ten times faster than at the Great Accomplishment stage!

A red vortex formed around Qin Shuang's body.

It swept up stones from the ground, sending them flying in all directions!

In about ten minutes, Qin Shuang used the perfected Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill to convert the first wave of amplified qi and blood within him, nourishing a pigeon-egg-sized bone in his thumb until it turned a spot of gold!

Once the first wave of amplified qi and blood was fully channeled, a second wave emerged.

Qin Shuang activated the Tiger Roar Divine Intent Skill once more.
