Chapter 155: Chapter 146: Successful Second Nirvana
RUSTLE!
As Nie Yun opened his eyes, the dust covering his body immediately scattered and fell away.
After a month of not eating, drinking, or moving, he was completely covered in dust.
"The second Nirvana was a success!"
The moment he opened his eyes, the youth knew his body had changed. A glint of excitement shone in his jet-black pupils.
After a month of arduous effort, he had finally succeeded in his Nirvana through the Nine-Turn Nirvana Skill, achieving a qualitative leap!
’Just as I predicted. I’ve really reached the Early-Stage Ultimate Venerable!’
Clenching his fist, Nie Yun immediately felt a surging power within him, ready to burst forth at any moment. His strength was a full ten times greater than before!
Before, one punch could unleash 5 Elephant Power, but now, he could definitely unleash 50!
The weakest Early-Stage Ultimate Venerable only possessed 10 Elephant Power. A Mid-Stage had 20, a Late-Stage had 30, and even one at the Peak only had 40!
For Nie Yun to possess 50 Elephant Power in the early stage... if word got out, it would be enough to scare someone to death!
Powerful!
Outrageous!
’The Nine-Turn Nirvana Skill truly lives up to its reputation as a Cultivation Technique surpassing the Royal Family’s Top Grade. If I had to rely on simple accumulation, I don’t know how long it would have taken to even reach the Qi Sect, let alone the Ultimate Venerable realm! To make a qualitative leap in just one month, ignoring the barriers between levels... it’s simply unbelievable!’
Nie Yun couldn’t help but marvel at the miraculous nature of the Nine-Turn Nirvana Skill.
For Cultivators who often spent years, or even decades, in training, a single month was nothing. To advance from the Late-Stage Armor Realm to the Early-Stage Ultimate Venerable in such a short time was an achievement that would make even the most talented geniuses die of shame!
One must understand that there was a natural barrier between the Armor Realm and the Qi Sect, and an even greater one between the Qi Sect and the Ultimate Venerable realm. Since they were called barriers, they couldn’t be overcome by experience from two lifetimes alone!
A barrier was like your most perfect work; just because you could create it once doesn’t mean you can replicate it later, even with more experience.
After all, to break through a barrier, experience was only one factor. Opportunity and one’s condition at the moment were also extremely important!
’The Primordial Essence Spirit Liquid contained a vast amount of Spiritual Qi, but my foundation is just too deep, plus the consumption from the Nirvana... I thought I’d have some to spare, but it turned out to be barely enough...’
Nie Yun shook his head, recalling how the Primordial Essence Spirit Liquid had nearly made him explode.
He had originally thought that with so much Spiritual Qi, the Primordial Essence Spirit Liquid would be enough for him to reach the Mid-Stage or even Late-Stage Ultimate Venerable. He never expected his foundation to be so profound that he almost ran out of energy during the Nirvana process!
If he had truly run out of energy, his Nirvana would have taken much longer than a month. It could have been three months, half a year, or even a year or two!
When undergoing Nirvana with the Nine-Turn Nirvana Skill, if the transformation stalls, as long as one doesn’t succumb to Entering the Demon Realm, the body will automatically absorb Spiritual Qi from the air. However, this absorption rate is incredibly slow, making the time required uncertain.
However, that didn’t happen... Thankfully, he’d had enough energy!
SWOOSH!
Nie Yun stood up.
Having reached the Ultimate Venerable Level, he now stood at the pinnacle of Qi Sea Cultivators. Even if he encountered the two great Demon Beasts, he would no longer have to hide and flee as before!
’With my current strength, combined with the Profound Jade Sword’s Momentum of Mountains and Rivers, my power has likely surpassed a hundred thousand pounds, reaching a million or even ten million!’
With a flip of his hand, he retrieved the Profound Jade Sword from his Storage Dantian.
The immense weight of the Profound Jade Sword, which was once almost too much for him to bear, now seemed like nothing at all.
Of course, this was only when he used his True Qi. Without it, relying on his physical strength alone, lifting the Profound Jade Sword would still be very difficult. After all, the Nirvana transformation of the Nine-Turn Nirvana Skill only increased his Qi Sea’s power, not his muscular strength.
His Spirit Rhinoceros Body Refining Technique was still at the Second-Layer Great Success, much weaker compared to his Qi Sea Cultivation.
’Hm? Those two Demon Beasts are still here? Heh, perfect. My Demon Pet quota isn’t full yet. I might as well take these two for myself!’
Glancing outside, he saw Hei Yan and Zi Tong were still standing guard and couldn’t help but smile.
A single Beast Taming Dantian could tame a total of five Demon Beasts. He currently only had two Demon Pets (Xiaohu and the Wind Wolf King, as he hadn’t subjugated the Copper-Armed Giant Ape), leaving plenty of room. Since these two Demon Beasts were unwilling to leave, he would be happy to oblige them!
If he could subjugate these two Ultimate Venerable Level Demon Beasts, he would have three Ultimate Venerable Demon Beasts in total. Adding Xiaohu, who was at the Peak of Qi Sect, and himself, this force would be something that even the combined Four Great Families of the Divine Wind Empire would never dare to provoke!
It would be no exaggeration to call them the number one power in the Empire!
After all, none of the Empire’s Four Great Venerables were Beast Tamers. And while the Empire had many Beast Tamers, none of them were capable of taking an Ultimate Venerable Demon Beast as a Demon Pet!
"Heh heh!"
With a flicker, Nie Yun flew up from where he stood.
Upon reaching the Ultimate Venerable Level, one gained the ability to fly. Nie Yun was already more than familiar with flying from his previous life, so there was no need to practice. With a single thought, he naturally took to the air.
’Time to go out!’
WHOOSH! Nie Yun appeared outside the cave.
... ... ...
"We waited a hundred agonizing years for that Primordial Essence Spirit Liquid! No matter which of us consumed it, our strength would have soared to the true Ultimate Venerable Peak! Are you really just going to give up?" Hei Yan asked anxiously.
"It’s been a month without a sound. That kid is definitely dead. As for how he died, I can’t guess," Zi Tong said. "Once he’s dead, the Primordial Essence Spirit Liquid is surely still in the cave. But we Demon Beasts can’t get in, so we can’t retrieve it. What else can we do but give up?"
"Dead? Yeah, after so long with no activity, he must be dead. But... to die just like that, it’s letting the bastard off easy! If I had gotten my claws on him, I would have sliced his flesh off piece by piece and eaten it mouthful by mouthful!" Hei Yan said fiercely, clenching his teeth.
"Don’t even start. I feel the same! Do you have any idea how furious I was? We waited a hundred years! A full one hundred years! After all that time, the single drop of Primordial Essence Spirit Liquid that finally matured was stolen away. I wanted to rip out his bones and peel off his skin!" Zi Tong roared as well.
The lifespan of a Demon Beast was much longer than a human’s, especially for those at the Qi Sect level or above. Living for several hundred or even a thousand years wasn’t a problem.
But even with their long lives, having the Spiritual Liquid they had waited a century for snatched away by a human the moment it was ready left them seething with an unquenchable rage!
"Damn it! Damn it all! It would have been better if he hadn’t died, so I could vent my anger! Otherwise, I feel like I’m going to explode from holding it in!"
Thinking of this, Hei Yan roared at the sky in fury, pounding his chest with his fists.
"From the sound of it, you two seem to miss me quite a bit. Heh heh. Luckily for you, I’m not dead yet..."
Hei Yan had only just slammed his chest a few times when he heard a calm voice from behind. A figure then flickered and emerged from the cave.
