Chapter 63: Penance, Strength
Feeling that powerful aura, Ling Aotian's face changed dramatically in an instant, and at this moment, he had already felt the strength of that skeleton. Without any hesitation, Ling Aotian's figure quickly retreated.
Ling Aotian's reaction was not unpleasant, in just an instant, he had already withdrawn a few meters, and distanced himself from the skeleton he attacked, however, at the moment when Ling Aotian attacked the skeleton, the skeleton not far from Ling Aotian also moved, quickly approaching Ling Aotian, a pair of sharp claws, through the chill of Sensen, towards Ling Aotian's back.
After attacking the skeleton before being shaken back, Ling Aotian was quickly retreating, avoiding the skeleton, but he felt a chill coming from behind, and he couldn't help but be startled, and before he had time to think about it, he moved his feet and slid out several meters to the side.
A sharp claw, with a chill from Sensen, struck at Ling Aotian's side.
Ling Aotian was afraid for a while, if it was any longer, he would be pierced by the skeleton behind him.
Just when Ling Aotian was glad that he had dodged the attack of the skeleton behind him, the cold claws of the first skeleton came to him again.
Accelerating and retreating, he could naturally avoid the attack of that skeleton, but at this moment, Ling Aotian, after the previous side stroke, had already exhausted his strength, and it was obviously impossible to retreat again.
In the face of the skeleton's fierce attack, Ling Aotian was forced to have no choice but to swing his remnant sword and meet the skeleton's cold claws.
While!
With a clear roar, Ling Aotian quickly retreated with the help of the shock force of that impact.
Facing Ling Aotian retreating, the two skeletons were willing to give up, let out a gurgling sound, and chased after Ling Aotian.
"Boy, get back to the safe zone!" the Blood Venerable reminded loudly.
Ling Aotian, who narrowly avoided the attack of the two skeletons, had already broken out in a cold sweat on his body, and when he saw the two skeletons chasing after him, he dared to stay and quickly retreated to the safe area.
At the moment when Ling Aotian retreated to the safe area, several other skeletons that found Ling Aotian also approached Ling Aotian, and the moment he entered the safe area, they launched a fierce attack.
Fortunately, he retreated quickly! Looking at the fierce attacks of the skeletons behind him at the last moment, Ling Aotian was afraid for a while.
"Boy, you're looking for death!" Blood Venerable roared at Ling Aotian with anger, "You yourself have a few catties and taels, haven't you even counted them, even if you want to die, don't bother others!"
Blood Venerable's words were very harsh, and they were also very direct, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable, but when he thought about it, he was relieved, Blood Venerable was right, his current every move was not only related to him alone, beside him, there were also Green Hazy and the Little Three-Headed Demon Lion, if something really happened to him here, what would happen to the Green Hazy and the Little Three-Headed Demon Lion?
Thinking of this, Ling Aotian didn't bother with Blood Venerable's stern tone anymore and asked, "Blood Venerable, have you found anything?"
"It's not that easy, it's that I'm thinking too simply, I thought that as long as the formation is activated, I can quickly discover the core of the formation, but I'm afraid I'm wrong, if you want to discover the core of the formation, I'm afraid it will take a while, boy, with your current strength, I'm afraid you won't be able to support this skeleton for so long." Blood Venerable's tone was full of disappointment.
"What should I do then?" Ling Aotian was in a hurry, Blood Venerable was the key to whether he could leave this peerless formation, if he couldn't find the location of the core of the formation, then there would really be no hope.
"Boy, what are you in a hurry, although I can't find the core of the formation for the time being, but, at least one thing I am sure of, this core of the formation does exist, it's just that it will take us a while. Compared to Ling Aotian's anxiety, Blood Venerable was extremely calm at the moment.
Can I not be in a hurry?" Ling Aotian couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Okay, boy, now, what you need to do is to improve your strength as soon as possible, as long as you can support this group of skeletons for half an hour, I am sure to find out the core of this formation. "Blood Venerable.
"Support for half an hour under the siege of this group of skeletons?" Ling Aotian raised his voice, "Blood Venerable, what are you kidding, the strength of these skeletons has reached the level of a sixth-level fighter, if I can support them under their attack for half an hour, I'm afraid I must have at least the initial strength of a sixth-level fighter, I am only at the peak of a fourth-level fighter now, if I want to reach that level, without a year or two, I am afraid that I will not be able to do it at all." β
"Hehe, kid, then you can continue to cultivate!At least, you only need to be trapped in the formation for a year or two now, which is much easier than I was back then!" said Blood Venerable with bad intentions.
"Isn't there a better way?" Ling Aotian asked without giving up.
Blood Venerable was silent.
Damn! Seeing that Blood Venerable no longer paid attention to himself, Ling Aotian secretly scolded, but he had no choice but to start cultivating according to what Blood Venerable said.
Time flew by in Ling Aotian's penance, and in the blink of an eye, half a year had passed, and his strength had improved rapidly, from the peak of a fourth-level fighter to the level of the early stage of a fifth-level fighter.
Speaking of which, Ling Aotian's progress was fast enough, but he was not satisfied with such a cultivation speed, because, with his cultivation speed, if he wanted to reach the strength of a sixth-level fighter in the early stage, a year and a half would probably not be enough.
"Blood Venerable, don't you really have any other way?" Ling Aotian asked Blood Venerable again without giving up.
However, as Ling Aotian expected, Blood Venerable still did not respond to him.
"Santou, you're awesome!" Just as Ling Aotian was worried about his cultivation speed, a green voice came into his ears.
Ling Aotian turned his gaze to the little three-headed demon lion, this look, he was taken aback, it turned out that during the time he was trapped in the formation, in order to kill the boredom, Lu Hao was already guiding the little three-headed demon lion to cultivate, in just half a year, the little three-headed demon lion had reached the level of a third-level demonic beast.
Thinking that it had taken him two years at the beginning, and he was only at the level of reaching the peak of a second-level fighter, Ling Aotian couldn't help but start to sigh for the progress of the little three-headed demon lion.
"Santou, if you little guy continue to practice, I'm afraid you will soon surpass me!" Ling Aotian sighed.
"Brother Tian!" Lu Hao looked at Ling Aotian, "Actually, you don't have to be surprised, all the initial cultivation of demonic beasts is very fast, only when they reach their growth limit, their cultivation speed will slow down, and it is even possible that they will not be able to take a step forward for the rest of their lives, and the growth limit of the three-headed demonic beast is the eighth level demonic beast, so before this, his cultivation speed will be very fast." β
Ling Aotian was stunned, but soon, he understood that this should be the so-called cultivation bottleneck, in fact, human beings are not the same, many people, when their strength grows to a certain extent, it is difficult to improve their cultivation, and they can only stand still for the rest of their lives.
I don't know what the bottleneck of my cultivation will be? Ling Aotian couldn't help but start to guess.
The cultivation speed of the little three-headed demon lion was just a small episode, and after listening to Lu Hao's explanation, Ling Aotian didn't think much about it and continued to cultivate.
In the blink of an eye, another half a year has passed, calculating the time, Ling Aotian They have been trapped in the formation for more than a year, more than a year, it is not long, it is not short, but it is extremely important for Ling Aotian and the little three-headed demon lion trapped in the formation, Ling Aotian has reached the level of the middle stage of the fifth-level fighter through penance, and he can be regarded as a strong man when he walks on the mainland, and the cultivation speed of the little three-headed demon lion is terrifying late, in a year, it has been advancing all the way, and it has reached the level of the fifth-level demonic beast, the only thing lacking is actual combatγ
Ling Aotian was naturally happy to break through to the level of the middle stage of a fifth-level fighter when he cultivated to the middle stage, but there was still a distance from the early stage of a sixth-level fighter, so after feeling his strength, he couldn't help but shake his head and prepared to devote himself to cultivation again.
"Heh, boy, that's good, in one year, you've reached the middle stage of a fifth-level fighter!" came out of Blood Venerable's voice.
"It's a pity, it's still some way from the goal you set!" Ling Aotian said helplessly.
"Hey, hey, that's enough!" said Bloodlord, laughing.
"That's enough, don't lie to me!" Ling Aotian didn't believe that his current strength could sustain him for half an hour under the attack of those hundreds of skeletons.
"It's okay for you kid to be self-aware!" Blood Venerable said with a smile, "Your current strength, if you want to support half an hour under the attack of those sixth-level strength skeletons, it is naturally not enough, but with your previous strength, coupled with my original blood meridian, it is enough to raise your strength to the level of the middle stage of a sixth-level fighter, in that case, under the attack of those skeletons, it should not be difficult to support for half an hour." β
"What, you still have such a good thing, why didn't you say it earlier!" Under the great joy, Ling Aotian began to complain about the Blood Venerable again.
"Stinky boy, if you don't put pressure on you, can you achieve such an achievement in a year, no pressure, where is the motivation, stop talking nonsense, I will pass on the blood meridian to you now, you hurry up and cultivate, and when you practice, it will be the day we break the formation." β
Then, Blood Venerable transmitted a piece of mental method into Ling Aotian's mind.
Blood meridian, not a martial art, just a way to activate the meridians, using this way, can stimulate the meridians in the human body, so that the strength of the person who casts it increases by a certain amount, however, this method of mind has another disadvantage, each time the cast can only last for an hour, after an hour, the person who casts it will enter a period of weakness, that is to say, the person who casts the blood meridian, if he can't solve the opponent within an hour, it is very likely to put himself in danger.
