Chapter 237 - Sword Spirit Embryo
Upon this, Liu Ming gestured with one hand, lighting up the formation on the ground beneath him imdiately. One by one, silver inscriptions started appearing before him.
At the sa ti, the blood fog that had revolved around the golden pearl was sucked within the pearl.
While a faint golden light was shining, over ten new blood stains started showing up on the pearl. Together with the older blood stains, it ford a complex formation all over the pearl.
When the blood formation finished, the golden pearl let out a bright ray of light and gave a buzzing sound as it circled around Liu Ming.
What looked like a lifeless pearl before, looked as though it had reawakened.
“It’s done”
Seeing this, Liu Ming’s spirits were raised.
The next mont, without Liu Ming casting any spells, the pearl whizzed towards Liu Ming, hitting his body.
“Pu!”
The mont the pearl ca into contact with Liu Ming’s body, it turned into a liquid form and with a roll, it beca a sowhat hideous looking golden armor clothing on him.
As thin as it was, it managed to wrap a little less than half of his body.
Looking at the golden clothing, Liu Ming moved his arms and legs about, with his eyebrows furrowed.
All of a sudden, he tapped his body with one arm and once again, the golden clothing turned into a liquid form. Imdiately, it into two and flowed to both of his hands.
Following a radiant light, two golden fists erged.
Clenching his fists, Liu Ming felt an instant inexplicable energy that wrapped each of his fingers, giving them a warm sensation.
He took a deep breath and with a jerk of his arms, a golden fist pounded the ground in a blur.
“Boom!” it sounded loudly.
The entire room shook, sending a wave of golden air in all directions. A hole that was half a foot deep in the ground appeared.
Liu Ming then pulled back his arm to look at the golden fist and then again at the hole in the ground. He couldn’t help but give a surprised look.
Because of the First Yuan Heavy Water that he took out earlier, he had already reinforced the room.
To be able to bring out such an appalling and destructive energy in this situation, it would an that his power had increased much more than what he had before.
With such a layer of Glazed Magma tal on his fists, the strength increased by impressive amounts.
Still unable to fully believe the power of this force, Liu Ming breathed in heavily and the other golden fist pounded the ground in a flash.
A loud bang sounded once again and another hole that was as deep as the other appeared before him.
This ti, Liu Ming was overjoyed.
However, he thought about it for a little while and gave a little twitch to one of his fists and the golden color followed his wrist and flowed in an upwards motion along his arms.
In a blink of an eye, his entire arm was wrapped in a thin layer of gold.
With a green flash from his other arm, he drew the Cyan Moon Sword out from his sleeves.
The sword swept across from his arm in a flash of coldness.
After what sounded like a tal friction, his gold arm was unscathed.
Upon seeing this, his eyebrows furrowed and with a jerk of his arms once again, the Cyan Moon Sword headed towards his arms.
“Dang!”
As the intertwining of green on golden light flashed, his sword bounced off and left a faint mark of the sword on his arm.
This ti around, all Liu Ming did was to give a nod.
He had only used half of his strength for that and did not use his Fa Li.
It can be seen that after the Glazed Magma tal was thinned out, its defense against swords and blades wasn’t the greatest
However, when he shot a ball of fire and a blue icicle at his arm, his face beca filled with excitent again.
The Glazed Magma tal perford well on defending again both fire and ice.
The golden arm didn’t feel any cold or warm feelings from the fireball and icicle from before
However, it was not an end for Liu Ming’s test. As he took out the short green sword before him, a layer of golden liquid swept towards the sword and wrapped it in an instant.
The cyan sword was now golden in color.
Jerking his wrist, the sword ca down cutting on his golden arm again and a mark that was slightly deeper than the previous one appeared.
“Only one tenth more powerful than before. It is no wonder the ancient record stated that the Glazed Magma tal would have a larger amplification effect for Body Cultivators compared to blades or swords.” Seeing this, Liu Ming muttered and his face did not show much surprise.
With a flick of his sword once again, the golden liquid flowed straight back to his hands.
This ti, Liu Ming kept his sword and closed his eyes while the golden liquid slid down his arms. Clinging on his skin, it then spread towards his entire body.
After a while, when Liu Ming opened his eyes again, starting from his neck all the way to his thighs were a shiny gold color.
After Liu Ming lowered his head and saw his appearance, he couldn’t help but give a bitter smile.
It seems that the amount Glazed Magma tal was now not enough for him.
Previously in the cave, the hidden corpse of the ghost could be wrapped in the Glazed Magma tal due to the fact that he did not have flesh on his body but just his skeleton left.
Nonetheless, with this on hand, he would have an added defense. Perhaps it would be able to save his life at a critical ti.
As Liu Ming thought along this line, he drove out any thought of pity he had and with a move, the golden light on his body flashed. The layer of gold then faded imdiately, forming a golden ball that floated before him.
This ti, he only thought for a little while before catching the ball and pressing on his wrist.
As the ball burst, it turned into a thick shiny golden bracelet. Whether it was the size or the look of it, it looked exactly alike to the Tiger’s Bite bracelet on his other arm.
Moving his wrist, Liu Ming felt the weight of the golden bracelet and when nothing else seed to be amiss, he sat cross legged on the ground. After taking out a pill to consu, he then closed his eyes and cald his mind.
Three days later, when Liu Ming had almost made up for the blood essence that he lost from sacrificing the Glazed Magma tal, he finally began to start to take out gold essence in the Great Tungsten Steel ring and used it to refine his Sword Spirit Embryo.
At this ti, he still sat in the room cross legged. However, in front of him, between his two fingers, was a black ring
As Liu Ming muttered incantations, black smoke surrounded him and what looked like over ten blurry tentacles danced around, vaguely casting several hand signs.
Every once in a while, a bit of crystal light flew out from the black ring amidst Liu Ming’s chanting. The light then floated towards Liu Ming’s body.
In Liu Ming’s Dantian, a white ball of light as big as an egg twirled. It seed like faintly, there was a couple dozen of crystal lights that varied in the strength of their pulses.
………
Five days later, he had still retained his posture, mouthing incantations without stopping. However, the ring between his fingers had turned into a blackened gray color and crystal light would strenuously fly out from it every quarter of an hour.
The white ball of light in Liu MIng’s body was gone and it was then replaced by a faint and hazy shadow of an inch long of a white sword.
The crystal lights that flew out rged into the sword when upon entering the dantian.
Seven days later, the blackened gray ring had completely turned into a grayish white color. While the white sword from Liu Ming’s abdon appeared clearer than before, it was still rather faint, as though it would scatter and disappear at any mont.
All of a sudden, a “peng” sound rang out!
The tal ring finally shattered, forming a pile of white fragnts that flew in all directions.
At this point, Liu Ming stopped his incantation and hurriedly summoned his ntal strength to check his body. After it swept across, he then wet his chapped lips as a smile lit up his face.
During the entire process of extracting the Great Tungsten Steel from the iron ring had to be at once and was unable to stop once started.
Fortunately, with his cultivation, he was able to get through without any consumption of food nor water. However, he was naturally inevitable to have a parched mouth and a dry tongue as well as feeling a little weak.
Fortunately, the Sword Spirit Embryo had already been established and all he needed to do was slowly cultivate it.
According to the Great Symbol Sword Technique, in a short period of ti, this Sword Embryo would be unable to be released out and hurt the enemy. But it would still be a great advantage. For example, the Sword Spirit Embryo could help people find sword intent or strengthen sword qis.
Liu Ming was in good spirits and after eating a few Pills of Fastening and drinking so water, he went back to his room and fell asleep right away.
Although his ntal strength was now no lesser than a Spirit Master, he had not had proper rest for a long ti and unable to overco the fatigue.
The following month, aside from practicing alchemy twice at Fan Bai Zi, Liu Ming’s other tis were spent in his cave working hard on cultivating his Sword Spirit Embryo.
It had just ford in his body and was not stable, he had to hurry and get it solidified before being able to feel at ease.
Right at this mont, news about the Sea Race invading the mainland and their army occupying the neighboring countries had finally spread to Xuanjing.
Imdiately, the entire Xuanjing was in an uproar.
Within a few days, the surviving loose practitioners had mostly left and only less than half remained. Many more of them were still trying to escape Xuanjing.
As for the underground markets in Xuanjing, be it pills, Glyphs, practitioner weapons or totems, the prices for them increased at an alarming rate. However, many loose practitioners were still snatching for them.
After a month, when Liu Ming appeared once again, there were very few underground markets that were still in business
However, Liu Ming didn't mind any of this.
He only spent his ti investigating Xuanjing in secret and when he did not find any trace of the Sea Race, he headed back to the cave and cultivate.
