Chapter 537: Chapter 67: Ten Thousand Skill Tower Ship Arrives, Master Liu Tianning! (8K)_3

Ji Ziyun cast a spell, raising walls of ice in the icy pond to sort the fish into categories.

Since Zhao Xing had previously let Xia Jing taste quite a few.

It was now easy to distinguish which fish had what effects.

"There are five hundred and forty-six Magic Fish. Eating them can enhance one’s understanding of Spells and martial arts techniques, though most increase proficiency in Water Element Magic and Water-based martial arts, with the other types being less common," Ji Ziyun explained.

Zhao Xing and the others didn’t know the names of these fish, as there were too many varieties in the ocean to name them all. They could only classify them based on effects.

"I’ll eat these five Fire Fish," Zhao Xing pointed at one of the indentations, "My Heavenly Fire Skill has yet to reach a high level."

Zhao Xing still had his mind on the Yin Yang Double Evil Formation Mountain at the Dream Palace. Once he left the Ten Suns Cave Heaven, he planned to enter it one more time to reap its benefits.

The fourth challenge in the Heavenly Craft Palace, the Yin Yang Double Evil Formation Mountain, consisted of earth, wind, fire, thunder calamities, and Zhao Xing lacked the Fire Element Magic to overcome that stage.

"My Lightning Magic still has great potential for improvement." Ji Ziyun pointed to an indentation containing five or six fish shimmering with lightning, similar to electric eels, "If no one wants these, I’ll have them."

"Aotian, do you want any?" Long Xiao lowered his head to look at the Mountain Cat.

The Aotian Cat shook its head; its innate lightning skills had already reached a bottleneck.

"Meow~" It pointed with its paw at several large bluefish in a nearby indentation.

It wanted to eat that.

"I’ll eat a few spearfish, swordfish," said Long Xiao, "They are of the Geng Metal type, which will enhance my Geng Metal Sword Technique."

With plenty of fish, there was no need to worry about how to divide them; everyone simply took what they needed.

Zhao Xing made four different choices.

First, he chose five large Fire Fish to increase his comprehension of [Heavenly Fire].

Second, he selected ten fish containing Fortune Spiritual Treasure, mainly to increase the Five Elements Water Transport, each weighing about ninety to a hundred pounds.

Third, he chose fish containing Lifespan Spirit, which were crystal clear as if made of glass.

Fourth, he selected fish rich in vital energy. Although his Gathering Essence had reached the forty-ninth stage, consuming such Spiritual Beauty still had the effect of strengthening the body.

"I eat!"

Zhao Xing expertly deboned and gutted the fish, then started to gorge himself.

Meanwhile, notifications appeared on the panel.

[You have consumed Lifespan Spirit, extra lifespan increased by 1 year.]

[You have consumed Lifespan Spirit, extra lifespan increased by 1 year.]

[You have consumed Fire Element Spirit, Fire Element insight enhanced, your Fire Element Magic ’Heavenly Fire’ breaks through from mid-stage to High Order First Transition.]

[You have consumed Fire Element Spirit, Fire Element insight enhanced, your Fire Element Magic ’Heavenly Fire’ advances to High-level Second Transition.]

[The bone in your right hand’s middle finger, transforms from ’Iron Bone Fully Developed’ to ’Silver Bone Beginning Stage.’]

[The bone in your right foot’s pubic region, transforms from ’Iron Bone Fully Developed’ to ’Silver Bone Beginning Stage.’]

...

Although Zhao Xing hadn’t practiced the Gluttonous Eating Skill, "Yin Yang Self Scripture" also contained techniques to accelerate absorption and digestion, known as the Heaven and Earth Transformation Technique.

Not as efficient as the Gluttonous Eating Skill, but still quite effective.

"Drink up~"

Just as Zhao Xing was focused on devouring his fish, Long Xiao suddenly turned red-faced, his body shimmering golden, also becoming transparent.

Zhao Xing turned to look at him and saw Long Xiao’s skeleton beginning to glow, seemingly absorbing the golden light from all over his body.

"What is he doing?" Ji Ziyun was startled.

"He’s attempting a breakthrough," Zhao Xing put down his fish, wiped his mouth, "to condense the Pure Essence Sword Body."

"Can he succeed?" Ji Ziyun was somewhat surprised.

"Probably not," Zhao Xing shook his head, "It can’t be done so swiftly, the foundation is still not stable, not enough accumulation."

"Drink up!!!" Long Xiao shouted forcefully, as if exerting all his might.

But, as Zhao Xing said, the accumulation needed to ascend from the Heavenly Gang Realm to the Pure Essence Realm was enormously vast, requiring more than ten times the vital energy of all stages from one to forty-nine combined.

"Wow~" Long Xiao suddenly began to vomit uncontrollably, his face flushed red, propping himself up on the ground. The golden light retracting from his bones radiated outward, his flesh and veins becoming clearer again.

"Hahahahaha~" Xia Jing immediately burst into laughter, slapping his thigh and pointing at Long Xiao.

"Hahahahaha." Chen Shijie, Zhao Xing, Ji Ziyun, seeing this, couldn’t help but laugh as well.

As it turned out, after his failed attempt, Long Xiao had one apparent consequence.

His body had swelled up, turning him into a big fatty!

At first glance, even a bit cute.

"If the vital energy can’t be absorbed into the golden bones, it will rapidly spread to the flesh, nourishing the flesh, growing wildly," Xia Jing couldn’t stop his laughter.

"Long Xiao, a heavenly-talented sword cultivator, you’ve flown too high, hahaha, you should now be called Long Pang, hahaha!"

Xia Jing mocked mercilessly, Long Xiao initially wasn’t affected.

But when he saw Chen Shijie, Zhao Xing, Ji Ziyun all laughing at him, even Aotian Cat rolling on the ground clutching its stomach, he immediately lost his composure.

"Then you try it, haven’t you eaten over three thousand pounds? You try it!"

"I’ll take the challenge!" Xia Jing sat down cross-legged. "Just watch me!"

"We’re all martial artists, why make it so hard?" Ji Ziyun covered her mouth.

"Hold on..." Zhao Xing stifled a laugh and took off the Dragon Soul Jade from around his neck. "Brother Xia, wear this, it’ll reduce the risk of deviation."

"Zhao Xing, why are you laughing? I’m getting angry!" Long Xiao’s facial fat all squeezed together.

"No, a fishbone scratched my cheek."

"That’s too much, you’re just laughing, haven’t stopped at all!"

"I was reminded of something funny."

"What funny thing?"
