C25 Four Spirits Ice Soul Art
Xiao Jian searched the skinny and short guy's body repeatedly until he found 80 silver coins. This guy really had nothing.
Looking at the pitiful eighty silver coins in his hands, Xiao Jian felt his balls hurt. Now that he had officially started his training, the first thing he did was to train his body. There were many ways to do that, but he would need to use some special medicinal liquid to soak his body.
Xiao Jian made a simple calculation. If he wanted to increase his physical strength to his satisfaction, he would need to use at least three hundred thousand silver coins. The annual income of his Xiao Family would be no more than a few hundred thousand.
Relying on the clan would definitely be impossible. Even if the clan could take it out, those old fellows of the clan would definitely not agree.
Looking at the silver coin in his hand, Xiao Jian sighed and put it away. He didn't expect that the former number one assassin in the world would worry so much about money.
How to get enough of the three hundred thousand silver coins was a problem. He could only hope that his luck would be better and that he would be able to gain something from Fire Mountain.
Xiao Jian only left after he made sure the skinny little guy didn't have any belongings on him. Returning to the place he had rested, he carried the huge boulder on his back once more and continued to walk toward the depths of the Fire Mountain.
After about two hours of walking, Xiao Jian arrived at a valley. The valley wasn't deep, there was a lake at the bottom, and the lake was crystal clear, with mountain springs seeping into the lake's walls. This lake was probably formed like this, with a lot of strange rocks and lush trees around.
Overall, the environment here was pretty good.
Right at this moment, Xiao Jian didn't put down the boulder on his body. Instead, he walked to the lake surface, leaped up, and with the help of the boulder, he quickly sank to the bottom of the lake.
After a long and tiring day, Xiao Jian's body was covered in sticky sweat. His whole body was hot, and that kind of hot and stuffy feeling went from his heart to his body.
The moment Xiao Jian touched the cold lake water, he felt a sense of comfort.
Xiao Jian's skin seemed to be cheering as a comfortable feeling spread throughout his body. After sinking into the lake, he untied the giant boulder on his body and took out the jade bottle. From within the jade bottle, a drop of fiery red liquid flowed out.
What was strange was that the drop of liquid did not blend with the lake water. Xiao Jian's Profound Qi led it into Xiao Jian's mouth.
After consuming the fiery red liquid, Xiao Jian felt his whole body heating up. When the fiery red liquid reached Xiao Jian's throat, a fiery red energy could be seen spreading to his limbs and bones.
Feeling the change in his body, Xiao Jian slowly closed his eyes and relaxed his body, letting the violent fiery red energy wreak havoc in his body. His body was like a red-hot iron ball placed in water.
While Xiao Jian was enjoying the process, the temperature of the lake started to rise with Xiao Jian as the center. In just half an hour, the water in the lake started to boil as if it was boiling.
Xiao Jian could clearly feel some of the impurities being excreted from his body. At the same time, his thin and dry body began to fill up under the impact of those violent abilities.
Xiao Jian seemed to have fallen asleep as he quietly brought the lake water along with him. After more than four hours, the boiling lake water had already evaporated by more than half, but the boiling water momentum had been greatly reduced.
It was already late at night with the bright moon in the sky.
Xiao Jian finally opened his eyes from the bottom of the lake. He stretched his body slightly and swam back towards the shore, washing himself along the way. The Spirit Liquid s that were refined by the Sky Law Ancient Sword had the ability of cleansing meridians and strengthening the body.
Moreover, this kind of Spirit Liquid was not something that an ordinary body refining medicinal ingredient could compare with.
After cleaning his body, Xiao Jian changed into a set of clean white clothes.
Right now, Xiao Jian no longer looked weak and frail. It could be seen that his body had become stronger, and on his chest, there was even a hint of weakness. His entire spirit was not something that could be compared with before.
With a clench of his fist, a ball of Profound Qi appeared in Xiao Jian's hand.
"First level of Qi Refining!" "My body has finally returned to normal. I can finally train like a normal person!"
Xiao Jian muttered to himself. He was the No. 1 Assassin in the world, an existence that had once dominated the world. Cultivating was a common occurrence, but now that he experienced it again, he couldn't help but feel happy.
Following which, a scroll appeared in Xiao Jian's other hand. This was the Dragon Tiger Frozen Soul Arts that he borrowed from his father.
In the eyes of others, such a high level cultivation technique would require at least Core Condensation Stage to cultivate, but for Xiao Jian, it was different.
To him, the first stage of Qi Refinement had a tenth phase Profound Qi, and a tenth phase Profound Qi, which was enough for him to cultivate the Dragon and Tiger Frozen Soul Arts.
Ordinary people could only practice single-attribute cultivation techniques or martial skills in their lifetime, but Xiao Jian was different. His physique was quite special and he could practice cultivation techniques with all kinds of attributes.
Even though he had been in a 'trash' state the entire time, he still had a good understanding of his own body's condition.
"Dragon Tiger Frozen Soul Arts was originally not called Dragon Tiger Frozen Soul Arts, and it was also not a middle grade profound tier cultivation technique. I can't believe this martial art that once dominated the entire world is letting me meet it again. Maybe this is fate! "
Xiao Jian looked at the scroll floating in front of him and said as if he had thought of something.
"A thousand years ago, I broke into that place and found another incomplete book. Unfortunately, because I was in my soul state back then, I was unable to bring it out. "Since my strength is still too weak now, I won't be able to take it out. I might as well start training with this incomplete book first!"
A light flashed across Xiao Jian's eyes as he muttered to himself. The complete Dragon Tiger Frozen Soul Arts was actually not called Dragon Tiger Frozen Soul Arts, but was called Four Spirit Frozen Soul Arts.
Tens of thousands of years ago, there was a supreme elder that used this technique to rule the entire continent, killing everything in his path.
With a wave of his hand, he could freeze a thousand kilometers. Once the four spirits appeared, no one could stop them!
Although the Dragon Tiger Frozen Soul Arts in his hand was only an incomplete manual, a part of the Four Spirit Frozen Soul Arts, it was still worth for Xiao Jian to cultivate it.
Thinking about that, Xiao Jian closed his eyes and focused as he started to comprehend the main points of the scroll. Several hours passed and a light blue circle finally appeared around Xiao Jian's body. The cold air spread everywhere with Xiao Jian as the center.
Not long after that, the entire lake was frozen by the cold air coming from Xiao Jian's body. The surrounding trees were also covered by a layer of frost and snow.
Another two hours passed. Xiao Jian seemed to have a tiger surging on his body. His eyes were tightly shut, but he let out a deep tiger roar. It was low and powerful.
"Roar …"
An even louder tiger roar sounded out, shaking the entire forest. The Night Crows in the forest were frightened, frantically charging into the pitch-black night sky.
A moment later, Xiao Jian's eyes suddenly opened. His originally black pupils had now turned blue, and his entire body burst out with cold air as a light blue Profound Qi soared up from Xiao Jian's body, forming a snow-white pillar of light. In the next moment, the image of a huge tiger appeared above Xiao Jian's head, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws.
A deafening tiger roar that travelled far into the distance shook the entire Fire Mountain.
"What's going on?"
Shi Minghao heard the loud roar of a tiger from far away and rushed out of the tent. He saw that in the distance, near the edge of Fire Mountain, appeared the image of a huge white tiger.
"There's an expert cultivating over there!"
Shi Zhiyuan looked at the white tiger simulacrum in the distance and said with a serious expression.
"This is a White Tiger Phenomenon, I heard that the highest level of Xiao Family cultivation technique can produce a White Tiger Phenomenon, could these people be from Xiao Family?"
Shi Minghao's gaze slightly darkened as he said. Who didn't know that the Patriarch of the Xiao Family cultivated Dragon Tiger Frozen Soul Arts, and it was said that when the Dragon Tiger Frozen Soul Arts was cultivated to its limit, one could cultivate a Dragon and Tiger Strange Scene? Right now, such a scene appeared in mid-air, making him suspect that Xiao Jian's people had entered the Fire Mountain.
"Impossible, unless Xiao Qian personally comes, no one in Xiao Family can cultivate their clan's cultivation technique to this extent!"
Shi Zhiyuan had also heard about the Dragon Tiger Frozen Soul Arts of Xiao Family, but the scene before his eyes was one where he really wanted to reach the legendary Dragon Tiger Frozen Soul Arts, but other than Xiao Qian, there seemed to be no one else at this level of Xiao Family.
Furthermore, Xiao Qian had always been cautious. How could he display his cultivation level in a place like this? This definitely wasn't Xiao Qian.
At the other end of the Fire Mountain, another group of people were also boiling with excitement.
"Look, what's going on?"
"Isn't that the Dragon and Tiger Strange Scene that Patriarch showed that day? It's exactly the same! "
"Could it be that Patriarch also came to the Fire Mountain?"
"Impossible, before we set off, didn't the Patriarch say that he would go into seclusion to cultivate? How could it appear here? "
When the disciples of the Xiao Family saw the image of the White Tiger in the night sky, they broke out into a flurry of discussion and were thoroughly shocked. This was the highest cultivation technique of the Xiao Family, how could they not know the results.
"What's going on? If you don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing out here? "
At this time, Fifth Elder Xiao Qinghee walked out, frowned, and reprimanded him. However, when he saw the image of the white tiger appear in mid-air, he suddenly froze for a moment.
"Elder, do you think that this looks like the Dragon and Tiger Strange Scene condensed by the Patriarch?"
A good family disciple asked. Who would have thought that he would see such a scene so late in the night? And this scene was exactly the same as the one they saw in the hall of the family head. Moreover, this White Tiger's body was bigger than Xiao Qian's, and it looked more real.
"This …"
Xiao Qinghee looked in that direction and for a moment, he was speechless and completely stunned.
