Chapter 738: Jackpot!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As Yun Yang thought about it, he began to practice the forms from the very beginning, combining all five forms and ten styles in an extended sequence to see how it would go.

The first four forms of the Destiny Blade saber truth could be considered as the extreme of the techniques in the known world. They were flawless, probably perfect in every sense of the word. They remained so in this practice session, but as Yun Yang went through Mountain of Ivory Bones and was about to finish the style, he dived straight into the Door of Life and Death Opens suddenly, unable to control his own actions.

With a cry, the airstream spiraled and formed a whirlpool. A sense of eerieness spread out overwhelmingly as Yun Yang was sprinkled with dots of stars, sparkling in saber light.

The power of the fifth form had been triggered unintentionally. It was a wonder whether it was a surprise or this was how it was meant to work.

With this realization in his heart, Yun Yang did not stop, following up with the next style, Eighteen Levels of h.e.l.l.

The s.p.a.ce converged then, six collapsing joints appearing in unison. It was like the gate to h.e.l.l had been opened, as ghostly cries and howls could be heard aloud. It sounded like countless ghosts had come out from the void, charging over with their aggressive claws and fangs.

Yun Yang retracted his saber, already comprehending the form thoroughly.

"So this is it!"

He fully understood it now. The intention of the fifth form was not to exist alone but as a fatal strike to connect the previous and next form. Only with the trigger of the four previous forms could the unusual states like the door of life and death as well as the eighteen levels of h.e.l.l be created, thus instigating unprecedented damage. It was like an external technique of a technique…

When it came to the sixth form, there should be an even stranger change.

Furthermore, Yun Yang had just begun learning the form, limited in his familiarity with the technique. This allowed only six collapsing joints to appear, for now, meaning that only six levels of h.e.l.l were created. The form might need more practice to achieve a major accomplishment for all eighteen levels of h.e.l.l to appear, genuinely living to its name.

Thinking of this and recalling the ghoulish cries earlier, Yun Yang could not suppress his feeling of mounting excitement. If he could open eighteen levels of h.e.l.l with one style, how overwhelming would the phenomenon be?

"I have to toil harder after this. I mustn't be even slightly lazy. I shall continue to apply myself further."

Yun Yang thought, 'There are too many powerful ones in this world, always someone better than me… My cultivation base right now is worthy of a top-notch character in Tianxuan Continent, but upon careful a.n.a.lysis, it's far than being enough. Whether it's Ji Lingxi's maniac of a father or the mythical Seventeenth Master of the Abyss, the contrast between us is like heaven and earth.'

It had to be mentioned that Young Master Yun's horizon was greatly widened now; so was his target. Initially, it was just to annihilate the Four Seasons Tower, but now, it had hopped right to the Seventeenth Master of the Abyss and Ji Lingxi's father…

Yun Yang collected his thoughts and stood up upon closing his practice. The moment he opened his eyes, he was dumbfounded by what greeted his sight!

Everywhere he s.h.i.+fted his gaze was a vision of purple radiance which almost blinded Yun Yang.

"What is this? What's going on? Why does everything look so spectacular?"

Yun Yang observed his surroundings, seeing purple cubic crystals everywhere, glowing with a violet luminescence. Other than an empty spot beside him, every other area was filled with a similar substance. The cubes were not big at all, only the size of a palm.

The shocked youth picked a piece up to study it cautiously in his hand. He felt instantly that the violet cubic crystal contained extraordinarily refined spiritual Qi.

"This – this is tangible, solidified, spiritual Qi!" Yun Yang was stunned once again by his discovery.

Spiritual Qi was intangible, without shape or shadow. Only when it was so prolific to a certain extent that it would appear milky in color and when it came to a mystical stage, it would appear to be purple.

When such a state grew a hundred times more profuse, the spiritual Qi would liquify. Following such a basis, it had to intensify another few hundred times more before the spiritual Qi could solidify. However, the question was, what could it possibly take for the energy to condense into such cubes?

Yun Yang was at a loss.

Lifting his head to look around and taking in the mountainous purple cubes, his head was a blank. How many spiritual Qi crystals were there in this room?

At the very least, with his most reserved estimation, there must be no fewer than a few thousand cubes!

Yun Yang was certain that with these purple spiritual Qi crystals, he could still make two – three, no, five big leaps in improvement – or even more, even if he were to go somewhere without a single drop of spiritual Qi.

"Who put them here? Did someone enter this room when I was cultivating?" Yun Yang was beyond dumbstruck, cold sweat soaking his forehead. "These violet crystals weren't here at all when I came in! Otherwise, I won't have missed it no matter how blind I am!"

While Yun Yang was shocked and delighted, the element of surprise was much greater than his joy. What he reaped from this episode was unimaginably great and the copious spiritual Qi crystals must be incredibly beneficial – yet when he thought about the fact that someone had approached him soundlessly, that he had not even noticed the person or the fact that someone could slip in when no outsider had ever stepped foot into the Residence of Nine Supremes since it was birthed gave him no small amount of worry.

If this were true, did this not mean that the other party's magnificent skill had gone to a terrifying level? it would have to be so wondrous that Yun Yang could only await his fate if that party intended to do anything to him. He would be like meat on a chopping board… The thought sent chills through Yun Yang, the terror palpable.

Yun Yang was suspicious, exiting the room doubtfully, and wanting very much to ask, "Who has come here?"

After all, the execution had to be done, whether one stretched or curled back his neck. Making certain of things earlier would at least lessen the pressure.

In spite of this, before the question could slip past his lips, Yun Yang was rendered speechless by the sight that lay before him.

The hall and yard of the Residence of Nine Supremes were stacked with these purple spiritual crystals. Ample and in numerous piles, they were piled on high. Yun Yang could already count a frightening number from a single glance; there had to be at least millions of cubes in the residence!

"Uh…"

Yun Yang's jaw went slack, not able to speak a single word for a long time. He could even feel his eyes about to leave their sockets and fall to the floor.

What an amount of wealth! This must be what infinite fortune would look like.

This had gone beyond the knowledge of anyone in this world!

Yun Yang was utterly confident that even if the whole of Tianxuan Continent's cultivation resources were gathered together and the millenniums of spiritual Qi within this heaven and earth were absorbed, they probably could not produce as many refined spiritual Qi crystals!

Yet, these crystals were everywhere throughout the Residence of Nine Supremes! Even the inner walls of the yard were lined with the substance!

The Residence of Nine Supremes had transformed into a luminous palace that was made up of violet spiritual Qi crystals. Furthermore, these were not all – the mountainous heaps in the yard spoke of even more cubes!
