Lithic Spear Technique Second Form, Spiral-Vortex: Vanquisher of Difficulties! Level Thirty-Six!

Boom! Boom!

Even though the typhoon had not yet officially made landfall, the storm it carried was already raging.

Winds exceeding level nine whipped the sea into a frenzy, with waves several meters high crashing against the coastline built of massive boulders.

The shore, which should have been deserted, was not empty.

At this moment.

A figure stood there with a calm expression, gazing at the near-shore scene that looked like the end of the world.

It was none other than Xu Yue.

The wind and rain, like a curtain of water, were swept up by the gale, soaking the earth.

In such conditions, an ordinary umbrella would be completely useless.

The rain, mixed with the briny sea breeze, caused him to frown slightly, but Xu Yue did not pay it much mind.

With a flash of soul light, A silver box, twenty centimeters in length and width, appeared abruptly in Xu Yue's hand. Raindrops hitting the lid made a sizzling sound.

Even without touching it, the sound of the rain alone was enough to reveal the intense heat radiating from the object inside.

Xu Yue quickly opened the lid, revealing what lay within.

A gelatinous substance shimmering with golden light, its surface glistening with a trace of oil.

It was a top-tier Whale Rubber with an age of over twenty thousand years.

This was originally intended for Guang Biao to temper his physique, sublimate his ten-thousand-year Soul Ring, and lay a solid foundation for his future breakthrough to Soul Saint.

But to settle the aftermath of the Guang Long incident, this Whale Rubber had to be brought out as a peace offering to appease Xu Yue.

Even though Xu Yue's body far surpassed that of ordinary Soul Masters of the same level due to his gravity tempering, such a top-tier ten-thousand-year Whale Rubber could still provide him with a significant boost.

Right now, under the assault of the storm, the human body was losing heat rapidly, let alone the scorching hot Whale Rubber.

Xu Yue did not hesitate and immediately tore off a piece.

The piping-hot Whale Rubber entered his mouth, its texture extremely viscous.

As he chewed, a pungent, fishy odor instantly permeated his senses, rushing straight to his sea of consciousness.

"Ugh..."

Xu Yue's throat heaved, but he forced down the nausea and did not spit it out.

After chewing it rapidly and forcefully, the fishy smell suddenly transformed into a strange, refreshing fragrance that seeped into his heart and spleen.

"Gulp! Haa—!"

Forcing it down into his stomach, Xu Yue's face twisted.

"I hate eating seafood..."

However, since Eastsea City was located by the sea, many nourishing sacred items came from the ocean.

No matter how much Xu Yue disliked it, over time, he had developed the habit of forcing himself to consume them.

By the time the entire piece of Whale Rubber was consumed, an extremely vigorous heat surged from his stomach throughout his entire body, causing his skin to turn slightly red.

At the same time, the negative side effects of the Whale Rubber began to emerge, causing the images of Mu Xi and Xu Xiaoyan to involuntarily appear in his mind.

"Hoo!"

Xu Yue took a deep breath, suppressing the fantasies in his mind.

Immediately after, he casually stripped off his soaked clothes, revealing his lean, muscular upper body.

Without pausing, he rushed toward the exposed reefs by the sea.

Waves several meters high, carrying terrifying power, crashed heavily against Xu Yue's body.

A golden light flashed, and the Stone-Solid Tyrant Body took effect.

Facing the waves crashing down one after another, Xu Yue thrust the Vortex Vanquisher continuously, black and red Gravity Beams tearing through the surf.

At the same time, the scenes of his battle with Guang Biao from a few days ago were constantly replayed and analyzed in his mind.

The first form of Thousand Rocks, Mind-Ape Menogias, was indeed strong enough. Combined with his Spear Intent of Rock, he could even suppress a Power Attack System Soul Emperor in a head-on fight.

But during the later stages of the battle, he had also discovered the drawbacks of this move.

Dragon Repents, for when something is too full, it cannot last.

Being fierce and unyielding was not a mistake, but being overly rigid exposed his own flaws to the enemy.

Therefore, Xu Yue needed to further refine his spear techniques.

And his choice was...

Water.

Unlike rock, which has a fixed form.

Water has no constant shape; it takes the form of whatever it touches.

No matter the environment, water always finds a way.

In his past life, water was also how the sages described the Dao.

The highest excellence is like water; water benefits all things and does not contend, dwelling in places that all men despise, and so it is close to the Dao.

Thinking of this, Xu Yue made a decision in his heart.

Looking at the typhoon cloud mass drawing closer from the far distance, he abandoned the idea of using spear techniques to confront the might of heaven.

He decided to merge himself into the storm before him, using his spear technique to guide the gravity, imitating the surging waves that were crashing against the coast layer after layer.

As time passed, the originally fierce and peerless Second Form of Lithic Spear Technique unexpectedly took on the softness of water at this moment.

The Black-Red Gravity Beam that had been tearing through the waves vanished into thin air, transforming into invisible ripples that spread outward in all directions.

Eastsea Academy, faculty dormitory.

Wu Zhangkong sat in his chair, looking thoughtfully at Tang Wulin, who had fallen into a deep sleep with golden patterns appearing all over his body after consuming the Spirit Fruit.

In truth, the words Tang Wulin had told him earlier were not without loopholes, but for some reason, when he spoke of the Tang Sect, it inexplicably made him feel convinced.

"The Ultimate Strength of the Golden Dragon? If it is true, then after nurturing him, I will send him to Shrek."

"Perhaps my mistakes can be redeemed a little..."

Time ticked by bit by bit.

The typhoon mentioned in the weather forecast officially made landfall in Eastsea City.

Yet, just as this super typhoon of nearly level thirteen or fourteen swept through the entire city.

A strange scene appeared by the seaside.

Within a hundred-meter radius centered on Xu Yue, the sea surface was abnormally calm, without wind or waves.

It was as if this place were not the edge of a raging typhoon, but the calm eye of the storm.

Behind Xu Yue, a water-blue tree rose from the ground, and water waves surged upon the tip of the Vortex Vanquisher.

It was his third Soul Skill, Ley Line Extraction.

At this moment, what Azhdaha was gathering was the power of water elements that were ubiquitous in the ocean.

On the reef, the spear technique Xu Yue was performing was no longer fierce, but instead possessed a leisurely and unhurried charm.

As a spear technique created by utilizing the characteristics of his Martial Soul, the gravity of the Star of Eden was naturally integrated into it.

It transformed into an invisible force field around Xu Yue, like an undercurrent surging beneath the water, shrouding the surroundings.

If anyone thought this move was as plain and unremarkable as it appeared on the surface, they would be gravely mistaken.

Once someone carelessly intruded into the range of this spear, they would be swallowed by that invisible gravity like a whirlpool.

No matter how much strength they exerted, they would find it difficult to extricate themselves.

Time slowly passed, from midnight to dawn.

Whenever a wave tried to break into this sanctuary, an invisible force field with the same strength but the opposite direction would neutralize it.

In this tempering process, that piece of top-grade Whale Rubber, over twenty thousand years old, was also slowly digested by Xu Yue, and with the refinement of the Gravitational Wave, it merged into his entire body, maximizing its efficacy.

The typhoon raged for an entire night.

The shore fell into a brief silence.

At this moment, the shackles within Xu Yue's body shattered completely.

The soul power contained within the Whale Rubber had long since been fully digested.

It now turned into a torrent, pushing Xu Yue into a new realm.

Level thirty-six!

At the same time.

The Second Form of Lithic Spear Technique was also completely perfected.

The Spear Intent within his Sea of Spirit rose once again.

The fierceness of rock now carried a touch of the softness of water.

Within a hundred-meter radius of Xu Yue.

The originally calm sea surface erupted violently, like a volcano that had been suppressed to its limit.

The seawater transformed into an azure Water Tornado that soared into the sky.

Boom!

Second Form of Lithic Spear Technique.

Spiral-Vortex: Vanquisher of Difficulties!!

Complete!
