Asura Emperor Venerable Chapter 251 - 251 251 Nine Steps

Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Nine Steps! Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Nine Steps! Shi Hao stumbled out of the portal which vanished imdiately behind him.

This was… in the Sanhe Forest.

Shi Hao took out the Purple Cloud Ginseng, glanced at it, and put it away. Without this piece of Spiritual dicine, he would have thought his previous experience was just a dream.

Talking pigs and Ganoderma Spirits, wasn’t this just like a dream?

However, there were indeed gains.

Shi Hao did not think the pig and the divided Ganoderma Spirit were deceiving him, but what exactly did they want?

A palace erged from the water, towering hundreds of feet high, clearly extraordinary, attracting countless people. Then, it selected a person with the highest martial arts talent for a significant task.

What exactly was this task?

Nothing was revealed, yet he was asked to reach the Saintly Position before searching. It all seed so secretive.

Well, let’s put that aside for now and go find Su Manman.

“Dunce!” He had yet to begin moving when he saw that Su Manman had already co out.

“Eh, how did you know I was here?” Shi Hao was curious.

How long had it been since he left the palace?

It was miraculous that Su Manman had located him so quickly and even rushed over.

“Dahuang?” He then looked at the big yellow dog beside Su Manman, which was shivering as if it had been greatly frightened.

“I just happened to walk over here and saw you, this lingering scoundrel,” Su Manman casually said, “So, what did you gain?”

Shi Hao took out the Purple Ganoderma and waved it: “Here, this.”

“Woof!” The mont the big yellow dog saw it, it sprang to life, its eyes gleaming, and lunged forward to bite.

“You have a share, but only a tiny bit,” Shi Hao said. To fully awaken the big yellow dog’s spirit, just a sliver of Ganoderma was enough; giving it all would be a great waste.

“Let’s go, we should leave first.”

Shi Hao knew that the Self-Observation powerhouses were definitely looking for him everywhere. Thus, this place was a land of trouble, and they needed to leave quickly.

Su Manman was indifferent and left with Shi Hao.

Ten or so days later, they returned to the Zhenwu Sect.

Then, Shi Hao started pondering how to use the piece of Purple Cloud Ginseng.

If used in Alchemy, it could maximize the dicinal power. A combination of several ingredients could summon the Power of Heaven and Earth, and the effect would far exceed direct consumption.

But, such an Elixir would at least be five stars upward, and Shi Hao’s Soul Force was far from powerful enough, making it impossible for him to refine it.

So, leave it for later?

Shi Hao shook his head; he was now deeply craving an increase in strength.

Then just consu it directly.

After all, couldn’t more Spiritual dicine be obtained in the future?

Strength is king!

“Silly Dahuang, co here.” Shi Hao called the big yellow dog over and tossed it a sliver of Ganoderma Slice.

Huh?

The big yellow dog beca annoyed. Are you trying to appease a beggar with just this little bit?

“Woof!” It barked at Shi Hao, its eyes fixated on the large piece of Ganoderma in Shi Hao’s hand, drooling with desire.

“Take it or leave it,” Shi Hao pretended to pick up the Ganoderma Slice from the ground.

The big yellow dog quickly snatched up the Ganoderma Slice and ran off. Having sothing was definitely better than nothing; wasn’t it smart enough to tell the difference?

Shi Hao smiled and sat down cross-legged.

He had deliberately not practiced today to conserve his Soul Force, which he intended to use to drive the Nine Revolutions Sky-Plundering Scripture and absorb the dicinal strength of the Ganoderma.

—Direct consumption could result in the dicinal strength being too potent, potentially bursting him, but absorbing it with the Nine Revolutions Sky-Plundering Scripture was different. He could monitor and stop at any ti.

Upon the first revolution, a trendous amount of energy was plundered into his body, robust and pure.

Hissss, how many years had that Ganoderma Spirit lived? The energy was too dense.

“Ao! Ao! Ao!” Cries from the big yellow dog outside followed, resembling those of a lead wolf, a mix of thrill and agony.

It was understandable.

Even a small fragnt, the energy in the Ganoderma slice was staggeringly imnse, almost enough to burst the big yellow dog, and this was Ganoderma Spirit, extrely nourishing for the big yellow dog.

So, it felt both exhilarating and painful.

Shi Hao withdrew his focus and continued to refine the Ganoderma piece.

Boom, within his body, energy boiled like a vast ocean.

His power increased rapidly, and his soul also grew swiftly. After Nine Revolutions, Shi Hao was not far from the seven-step peak.

A day later, Shi Hao proceeded.

This ti, after only three revolutions, he reached the seven-step peak.

After so many days, he had also solidified his foundation. Thus, he succeeded at once, breaking through the eight-step barrier.

The Soul Seed Puppet turned pure white, untainted by any impurities, with eight Golden Threads entwined around its body, particularly striking.

Shi Hao continued, and after six revolutions, his Soul Force was exhausted.

Mid-eight step.

The speed was terrifying, unbelievable if told.

What kind of Spiritual dicine existed like this in the world?

Most Spiritual dicines could only affect the physical body, that is, enhance strength, but were far from sufficient for nourishing the soul. However, a fully spirited Spiritual dicine was different, offering significant nourishnt for the soul.

Shi Hao looked at the Ganoderma Piece in his hand; it was noticeably less attractive as part of its essence had been absorbed.

Probably could still be used about three to four tis.

If only he had known, he should have shalessly asked for more in the beginning.

Shi Hao said regretfully, shaking his head.

Another day passed, and after further cultivation, Shi Hao reached the eight-step peak.

However, he did not rush to break through this ti. Firstly, he was almost touching the end of Soul Nurturing, and the breakthrough was not going to be easy. Secondly, he had just stepped into eight steps the day before yesterday. To step into nine steps now?

The foundation was not stable.

Therefore, he needed to consolidate first.

What to do?

Battle.

Shi Hao ventured alone into the mountain area, where there were plenty of ferocious beasts, to fully engage in battle.

More than ten days later, he returned.

He began to strike for the nine-step.

This ti, he encountered so obstacles and did not easily break through.

The Golden Threads binding the Soul Seed Puppet were as many as eight, suppressing it tightly, preventing it from breaking free and advancing further.

“Break for !” Shi Hao shouted loudly, and the Soul Seed Puppet also erupted with a strong montum, forcibly drawing in the Power of Heaven and Earth, the powers of the five elents, thunder, light, darkness, poison, and so on, all being absorbed.

Boom, the eight Golden Threads were imdiately subjected to a strong impact, trembling violently.

But the Golden Threads were highly tenacious, still tightly binding the Soul Seed Puppet.

With a thought from Shi Hao, the Soul Seed Puppet turned its hand into a blade and slashed down at itself.

Crack, one Golden Thread was instantly severed, but the Soul Seed Puppet also took a heavy blow, its vitality falling sharply.

However, the broken Golden Thread imdiately began to heal, with a surprisingly fast speed.

“Break, break, break!”

Shi Hao shouted, and the Soul Seed Puppet continuously “struck with its blade,” crack, crack, crack, and the Golden Threads were severed repeatedly; then the Soul Seed Puppet erupted again, spreading its arms wide. Suddenly, the remaining six Golden Threads all burst.

Comfortable!

Shi Hao felt relieved all over, as a certain shackle inside him was unlocked.

Nine steps!
