Chapter 568: Chapter 554 King Martial Third Level

Meanwhile, outside the Chaoyang Valley.

Swoosh!

Five extremely disheveled figures flew out from the woods and then landed on the ground. Some knelt on the ground, while others collapsed, all gasping for air.

If Xiao Ye were here, he would definitely recognize them as the Earth Hall disciples who went on the mission with him, and among them was Wu Pojun.

At this moment, Wu Pojun was in tatters, his robe torn and bloodied, his face deathly pale, having suffered serious injuries.

It wasn’t until a disciple took out a King Crystal from a Space Ring and administered it that he finally caught his breath and stood up from the ground.

"How terrifying the Chaoyang Valley is. I never thought that rumor was true. I definitely won’t step into Chaoyang Valley ever again!" Wu Pojun looked toward the direction of the valley, still with lingering fears and a pale face.

Including Xiao Ye, there were a total of sixteen disciples from the Earth Hall, but now only five remained; the rest had all fallen within the Chaoyang Valley.

If it weren’t for the depletion of that ancient killing formation, losing most of its power, he and the few disciples would have never escaped.

"Senior Brother Wu, so many of our fellow disciples have died, what should we do now?"

"Yes, if we return to the Holy Palace, we won’t be able to explain ourselves."

...

The remaining four disciples, after taking the King Crystals and recovering from their injuries, spoke in low spirits, truly frightened by their experience.

"What should we do?" A disdainful smirk appeared on Wu Pojun’s face.

His nature was indifferent and ruthless, and he did not care in the slightest about the deceased disciples. What he cared about was Xiao Ye!

However, it seemed that Xiao Ye, along with those disciples, had perished in the Chaoyang Valley. His mission assigned by Lin Feng had been accomplished. Once he returned to the Holy Palace, Lin Feng would naturally protect him, and he might even be rewarded.

Therefore, he was not worried at all.

"It’s just a pity about that Emperor Vein Ferocious Beast and Elder Yang’s legacy." Wu Pojun felt regret in his heart. If he could have obtained Little White and the Heavenly Treasure Record as well, that would have been perfect.

"Next, we will continue to complete the task assigned by Senior Brother Lin Feng. As for our return to the Holy Palace, I will naturally report the situation here truthfully to the Elders. I hope you will keep your mouths shut, otherwise, I believe Senior Brother Lin Feng won’t let you off," Wu Pojun said coolly, his gaze threatening the four disciples.

Hearing this, all four disciples fell silent and then nodded lightly.

They had realized while in Chaoyang Valley that all of this was Wu Pojun’s plot and scheme to harm Xiao Ye.

Now that the goal had been achieved and Xiao Ye was dead, they knew it, yet dared not speak out.

Even if they had no close ties with Xiao Ye, let alone having a clear relationship with him, they would not oppose Lin Feng - the Holy Palace’s devilish disciple - for a deceased person.

Seeing the reaction of the four disciples, Wu Pojun burst into a satisfied laugh. This was the outcome he wanted.

"Let’s go, we should quickly find the treasure assigned by Senior Brother Lin Feng and then return to the Holy Palace. I hear that in half a year, the Holy Palace Master’s birthday will be celebrated, and many forces from Central State will come to offer their congratulations."

"We can’t miss such a great opportunity to widen our horizons, haha!" After saying this, Wu Pojun laughed heartily and sped away toward the distance.

The four disciples exchanged glances, then sighed in sympathy for Xiao Ye’s fate and followed Wu Pojun.

...

Time flies like an arrow, fleeting in an instant.

Xiao Ye was toiling away amid the ocean of the Underworld, oblivious to the situation of Wu Pojun and the others.

Nearly every day, his cultivation was rapidly increasing, endlessly liquid Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi washing over his body time and again.

Even Xiao Ye himself hadn’t realized that this liquid Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, while being absorbed and transformed into King Martial Power, was also shaping his King Body.

Beneath the skin of his body, a faint purple glow arose, flowing like water throughout his body, and his King Body was undergoing a terrifying transformation.

Looking across the entire True Spirit Continent, probably only Xiao Ye would be luxurious enough to bathe in liquid Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and then recklessly absorb it, lending his King Body full of possibilities.

This was akin to a Nirvana Rebirth transformation.

Once Xiao Ye’s transformation succeeded, it would be like a fish jumping Dragon Gate, truly stepping into the ranks of the strong among the young generation of Central State, with the qualifications to be king in Central State.

Finally, after a month and a half, Xiao Ye’s body trembled, his King Martial momentum surged again, stirring up shocking waves, rolling up boundless spray as if to break through the earth’s surface to the outside world.

"King Martial Level 2 already, what a rapid pace!" Xiao Ye couldn’t help but open his eyes, even he was shocked by this speed of cultivation, likely setting a record across the True Spirit Continent.

Of course, reaching this step was the result of the combined effects of Time Tower, liquefied Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, and the Heavenly Treasure Record.

For example, in this half a month, he had already consumed a total of eight King Crystals, the vast King Martial Power contained within them was the reason for his rapid advancement in cultivation.

Xiao Ye took some time to feel the new Realm before continuing his secluded cultivation.

His goal was to raise his cultivation to King Martial Third Level within six months, and there were still four full months left.

But Xiao Ye soon discovered that after reaching King Martial Level 2, it became even more difficult to advance, like an old ox pulling a cart.

"I refuse to believe this can’t be done!" Xiao Ye thought fiercely, taking out three more King Crystals from his Space Ring and devouring them, then madly operating the Heavenly Treasure Record for refining.

Whoosh!

At the same time, his body seemed to become a black hole, frantically absorbing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, continuously channeling it into the four King Realms.

Finally, after three and a half months, Xiao Ye finally felt the membrane of breaking through to King Martial Third Level.

"Break for me!" Xiao Ye roared, taking out five more King Crystals and devouring them straight away, beginning the final assault.

This mad action made Xiao Ye’s body shine with four different intense lights, casting brilliant radiance throughout the Underworld, dazzling and colorful.

On the last day of the assault, after ten days, Xiao Ye’s body suddenly trembled, feeling as if he had pushed open a great door, entering a new Realm, the King Martial Power in his King Realms began to surge.

"Finally succeeded!" Xiao Ye exclaimed excitedly, howling into the sky.

Now that he had broken through to King Martial Third Level, his strength had skyrocketed, next he should go to Elder Canglong to cultivate King Martial Combat Skills.
