Self-Created Triple Penetrating Power! Xiantian True Qi Compressed Again, True Qi Liquefaction?

Ye Wudao toyed with the wooden spear in his hands when, suddenly, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind.

He hurriedly asked Qin Tianlong in a low voice, "Grandmaster, do you think if I were to trigger the Penetrating Power within my body, conduct it into the weapon, and finally channel it into my True Qi, the power would be even greater?"

"The reason I couldn't trigger the Penetrating Power with my body before was that I was only at the entry level of the Houtian Realm, and my body couldn't withstand it."

"But now that I am in the Xiantian Realm, my body can fully handle the force of the Penetrating Power."

At these words, Qin Tianlong froze. He had been researching the Double Penetrating Power, but he had never explored the method Ye Wudao was describing.

If he could first have his body withstand the Penetrating Power and then conduct it into the weapon, could he perhaps use the Double Penetrating Power himself?

The difficulty lay in conducting the Penetrating Power from the weapon into the Xiantian True Qi, but conducting it from the body into the weapon should not be difficult.

He knew how to use the Penetrating Power of the weapon and the Penetrating Power of the body separately; he only needed to combine them!

He said softly to Ye Wudao, "You can try! But no one has ever used this method before, so be careful not to hurt yourself."

Ye Wudao nodded gently. Following his plan, he gripped the spear, triggered the Penetrating Power, and channeled it into the shaft.

"Hum..."

The next second, the spear emitted a violent hum. The force of the Double Penetrating Power was more than the wooden spear could bear.

Because of this vibration, the Penetrating Power failed to transfer from the spear to the Xiantian True Qi at the tip.

He pursed his lips, looked at the shattered shaft, and said softly, "The spear isn't good enough."

Hearing this, Qin Tianlong said in a deep voice, "Wait here. I'll go get you a Meteorite Spear!"

Ye Wudao was stunned. It was late at night; where would his Grandmaster get a Meteorite Spear?

The Rift World?

A Meteorite Spear required ten thousand points to redeem within the Demon Slayer Guard system; it was arguably one of the top-tier weapons on Blue Star.

The crucial point was that weapons from the Rift World were forbidden from being brought out—that was an ironclad rule.

However, after speaking, Qin Tianlong walked straight out of the cell.

Before long, Qin Tianlong returned, truly carrying a black Meteorite Spear.

Ye Wudao looked at the spear in his hands and asked softly, "Grandmaster, where did you get this? Can weapons from the Rift World be brought out?"

"That's not right! Only three minutes have passed. Even if you could fly, you couldn't have returned this quickly!"

Qin Tianlong laughed. "What's the matter? Do you think only the Demon Slayer Guard has Meteorite Spears?"

"This is my ancestral Meteorite Spear, and it's even stronger than the ones the Demon Slayer Guard uses."

"The Demon Slayer Guard's Meteorite Spears are only half meteorite. Mine is forged entirely from meteorite."

"You'll know once you feel it!"

With that, he handed the spear to Ye Wudao.

As Ye Wudao took the Meteorite Spear, he felt the difference the moment it touched his hands.

A cold sensation traveled from the shaft to his palms, and the spear felt significantly heavier.

Intricate patterns were carved into the shaft to increase grip.

The tip of the spear emitted a faint, cold glint, the result of years of disuse.

If it were put back into service, that hazy film would vanish in an instant.

"Try it!"

Qin Tianlong said softly, watching Ye Wudao, who looked delighted.

Ye Wudao nodded and, following his previous method, continued to layer the Penetrating Power.

This time, the spear didn't make a sound, and the shaft didn't even tremble.

Yet, he still failed.

When the Penetrating Power reached the tip, the Xiantian True Qi dissipated on its own.

This time, it wasn't that the spear couldn't withstand the double force, but that the Xiantian True Qi couldn't withstand the Triple Penetrating Power!

Ye Wudao shook his head. "It won't work! The Xiantian True Qi can't handle this force; it scatters the moment it makes contact!"

Qin Tianlong nodded slightly. He pondered for a moment and said, "Then try condensing more Xiantian True Qi and see what happens."

Ye Wudao nodded and triggered his Xiantian True Qi again, concentrating it at the spearhead.

This time, the amount of Xiantian True Qi was three times greater than before.

Because it was a Triple Penetrating Power, he had used three times the amount of True Qi.

However, the result was the same; the Xiantian True Qi still collapsed.

He looked at Qin Tianlong and said, "It's not a matter of quantity, but of the intensity of the Xiantian True Qi."

"The intensity of the Xiantian True Qi isn't high enough. As soon as the Triple Penetrating Power touches it, the True Qi dissipates."

"Grandmaster, is there any way to increase the intensity of Xiantian True Qi?"

Qin Tianlong shook his head and replied, "The intensity of Xiantian True Qi cannot be changed. Whether one is at the entry, minor completion, or major completion stage of the Xiantian Realm, the intensity of the True Qi remains the same."

"The only change is that the higher the realm, the greater the quantity of True Qi."

"Xiantian True Qi is originally transformed from Houtian True Qi; it is produced through the condensation of Houtian True Qi within the Dantian."

"If the Xiantian True Qi were too strong, the Dantian and meridians would be unable to withstand the impact of such energy."

Ye Wudao nodded; Qin Tianlong's reasoning made sense.

It was impossible to strengthen Xiantian True Qi within the body!

So, what if he made the Xiantian True Qi stronger outside the body?

He recalled the process of Houtian True Qi transforming into Xiantian True Qi—that massive vortex within the Dantian!

It was precisely because of the vortex's rotation, which compressed the Houtian True Qi, that Xiantian True Qi was formed.

What if he made the Xiantian True Qi rotate and compress at the tip of his spear?

Thinking of this, he immediately began to put it into practice.

True Qi slowly gathered at the spear tip, with the outer layer of energy driving the inner circle to rotate.

As the True Qi slowly spun, the energy at the center of the rotation began to bear pressure.

Qin Tianlong watched Ye Wudao's actions, stunned for several seconds. When he saw the True Qi at the spear tip shift from white to transparent, he suddenly understood something.

"Wudao, be careful!"

"If the True Qi loses control in this manner, I fear you might injure yourself!"

He could not help but offer a soft warning.

He had a feeling that under this manipulation, the Xiantian True Qi had already transcended the standard definition of True Qi.

A term suddenly surfaced in his mind—the concept of "True Qi Liquefaction" that Ye Wudao had mentioned to him days ago.

He felt that the Xiantian True Qi at the spear tip was on the verge of sublimating into a liquid state.

Ye Wudao nodded, sensing the intensity of the Xiantian True Qi at the spear tip.

He also had a feeling that this Xiantian True Qi was undergoing a metamorphosis, becoming stronger and stronger.

"Hum..."

Suddenly, the spear shaft, forged from meteorite iron, began to vibrate.

Ye Wudao knew he could wait no longer; the intensity of the True Qi had already exceeded the limits of what the meteorite iron could withstand.

The next second, the Triple Penetrating Power traveled from his body to the spear shaft, then surged into the Xiantian True Qi at the spearhead.

"Whoosh..."

A sound of air being torn apart echoed through Cell No. 1 as the True Qi at the spearhead transformed into a white streak of light, plunging straight into the ground.

"Boom..."

A violent roar erupted within Cell No. 1. On the concrete floor ten meters in front of Ye Wudao, a hole the size of a washbasin and roughly ten meters deep appeared.

"It worked! Triple Penetrating Power!"

Ye Wudao looked at the deep hole, feeling somewhat exhilarated.

"Damn! This kid actually pulled it off?"

Beside him, Qin Tianlong was so shocked he shook his head repeatedly, muttering under his breath.

He himself had not even mastered Double Penetrating Power, yet Ye Wudao had already achieved Triple Penetrating Power.

As far as he knew, there were very few people in the entire martial arts world who could perform Double Penetrating Power, let alone the triple version.

He looked at Ye Wudao and said softly, "Wudao, do you feel that the way you strengthened the Xiantian True Qi is somewhat akin to 'True Qi Liquefaction'?"

Ye Wudao nodded: "I felt it!"

"Just now, I had the sensation that it was only a hair's breadth away from converting into liquid."

"However, I was afraid the True Qi would lose control, and since your family's ancestral spear was also vibrating, I feared breaking the weapon, so I didn't continue the compression."

"Master, what do you think of the power of this strike?"

Qin Tianlong nodded, looked at the basin-sized hole, and said in a deep voice, "The power of this strike is something even an average Grandmaster Realm expert might not be able to achieve."

"Grandmaster Realm experts actually still use Xiantian True Qi; they simply possess spiritual power, which allows them to control it."

"If one were to say their combat strength is superior, it is only because of the quantity of their True Qi; the intensity is actually no different from that of the Xiantian Realm."

"But the Xiantian True Qi you just condensed has clearly exceeded the standard scope of Xiantian True Qi."

He paused, then added solemnly, "However, I am curious: if this is indeed 'True Qi Liquefaction,' how could True Qi of this intensity circulate within the body?"

Ye Wudao shook his head and said softly, "Once I ascend to the peak of the Grandmaster Realm, all will be answered!"

"However, the time required to compress the True Qi for this move is a bit too long. It can only be used as a finishing move and cannot be used frequently."

"I wonder if it will be easier to use Triple Penetrating Power once I ascend beyond the Grandmaster Realm!"

Hearing this, Qin Tianlong rolled his eyes and said, "You brat, just be content! I haven't even mastered Double Penetrating Power, and you're already using the triple version—what more do you want?"

"Step aside. From the way you just used your penetrating power, I've found a shortcut to Double Penetrating Power. Let me give it a try!"

After saying this, he took the long spear from Ye Wudao's hands and began attempting to use the spear shaft as a carrier for the two-stage penetrating power.

Surprisingly, following this line of thought, he actually succeeded, though it shifted from a long-range attack to a melee one.

The penetrating power could only be transmitted once the spearhead made contact with the enemy.

Although he had sacrificed the advantage of range, it still counted as an extra trump card up his sleeve!
