Path of Alchemy Mastery Chapter 352 - 352 353 One Against Two

352: Chapter 353: One Against Two 352: Chapter 353: One Against Two The opponent’s pillar, thick as a roof beam, was hard not to notice.

With his hulking fra, the muscles under his clothes bulged remarkably; thus, when he carried such a huge pillar, there was an indescribable sense of harmony.

“To think he’s a Totem Envoy, we must be careful.” Mu Can did not recognize the pillar, but that didn’t an Xu Liang was unfamiliar with it.

The Mortal World was vast, and there always existed so isolated races.

The Totem Clan was a special tribe within the Mortal World.

The Totem Clan had a sparse population and seldom wandered out.

However, every mber of the Totem Clan who walked in the Mortal World was an outstanding descendant of their generation.

Xu Liang had also co to know of the Totem Clan’s existence by chance.

Although Mu Can surely knew much more about the Mortal World than Xu Liang, he had never heard of this Totem Clan.

“What’s a Totem Envoy?” Not understanding, one must ask.

Although Mu Can was confident about overcoming any enemy he faced, encountering an entirely unfamiliar opponent warranted so understanding.

“A Totem Envoy is a ssenger of the Totem Clan.

Anyone who can leave the Totem Clan can be called a Totem Envoy.” Seeing Mu Can asking him, Xu Liang hurriedly explained, secretly relieved that although he was not as strong as Mu Can, he still knew so of the Mortal World’s more secretive secrets.

Thanks to Xu Liang’s explanation, Mu Can now understood what was going on with the robust man carrying the enormous totem pole.

It turned out that the Totem Clan’s Cultivation thod, compared to the Cultivation practices of the Mortal World, was a system unto its own.

All of their Cultivation was contained within the huge Totem Pole they carried on their backs.

Every Totem Clan mber, upon reaching the age of eight, would travel to their ancestral land to find their respective Totem Pole.

Their Cultivation process was the process of nurturing the Totem Poles.

During this process, all the Spiritual Energy they cultivated would enter the Totem Pole without reservation, and then the Totem Pole would nourish them back in a miraculous way.

This ant that the Spiritual Power they cultivated had to be processed by the Totem Pole.

However, an important point to note is that the Spiritual Power nourished back from the Totem Pole could only strengthen the physical body, which is why the Totem Clan mber Mu Can saw was as robust as a Little Giant.

Xu Liang also only knew this much.

As for the fighting style of the Totem Clan, it remained a mystery to both of them.

In the dueling ground of Tongshen Mountain, there was no doubt that mbers of the Totem Clan seed to possess an innate ho-field advantage.

Their formidable bodies were their greatest weapon, and the space restrictions on strength did nothing to reduce their physical quality.

In essence, facing a Totem Clan mber in the Duel Arena ant confronting a mber of the clan at full strength, not to ntion the enormous Totem they carried on their backs.

Mu Can did not believe that the colossal Totem was rely for show.

Mu Can and Xu Liang sized up the two opponents opposite them, just as the pair opposite were doing the sa to them.

After all, it was quite rare in the dueling ground to gain an advantage by attacking first, and it was easy to have the situation backfire — like counting your chickens before they hatch.

Take Mu Can’s last battle: if he had faced a Cultivator known for speed, his opponent could easily have closed the distance while the Fire Phoenix was still being charged by the fierce winds.

In that case, the two opposing Cultivators would have suffered significant losses.

“How should we fight?” the Totem Clan mber asked the young man standing idly by with a long knife on his back.

It seed that the battle they had just endured had allowed the two to develop a certain tacit understanding.

“Let’s stick to the previous plan; it’s safer.

Don’t forget, if we run into life-threatening danger, the protective asures will activate, then it’s ti for a fight to the death.

It’s been a long ti since I’ve had such a carefree battle.”

As the knife-wielding young man spoke, he took the long knife, emitting a faint red glow, off his back.

With the long knife in hand, the youth’s aura suddenly changed.

If before, standing idly by, he was like a star in a sky covered with dark clouds, then now, wielding the long knife, he was like a bright moon hanging above, shining brilliantly.

In the Mortal World, the knife was quite a rare weapon.

In a Mortal World where sword practice was prevalent, various Sword Cultivators and Sword Gods erged one after another, pushing the Mortal World’s Sword Dao to an extrely sophisticated level.

Conversely, there were far fewer people who used knives, as appearance was also an important factor when people chose their Cultivation Technique.

Those self-proclaid stylish Cultivators wielding a large knife rampantly killing — how could it compare to the elegance of Sword Control?

But Mu Can could tell that this young man holding the long knife was possibly among those at the Peak of the Cultivation in the Mortal World.

This was evident from the aura that he exuded once he took the long knife into his hands.

Mu Can knew many people who had this trait; without a sword in hand, they were just ordinary folks who might seem like old farrs in the field.

But once they held a sword, they could be compared to unparalleled Sword Immortals capable of reaching for the moon in the nine heavens.

“Ada likes this kind of battle,” the Totem Clan mber grinned broadly, cheerfully speaking.

A head-on clash was indeed the Totem Clan’s favorite way of fighting.

“Hehe, with your secret weapon, I can even experience what it’s like to be a Martial Saint.” The knife-wielding young man also laughed.

He couldn’t forget the last battle, that exhilarating feeling that left him utterly addicted.

“Be careful, and keep yourself safe, alright?” Mu Can looked at Xu Liang and instructed, seemingly intent on taking on the two opponents by himself.

“Be careful yourself.” Xu Liang glanced at Mu Can, knowing that once Mu Can decided on sothing, it was irrevocable.

So, he gently waved to Mu Can, and a refreshing aura attached itself to Mu Can — it was the Rejuvenation Technique Xu Liang had selected in the Scripture Pavilion.

Mu Can imdiately felt a cool breeze over his body, returning him to his pri condition.

Admiringly looking at Xu Liang, Mu Can was increasingly satisfied with him.

Without a doubt, Xu Liang had deliberately chosen such an auxiliary Cultivation Technique and specifically for him.

Xu Liang gently raised his thumb then stepped aside.

“Ada, look, the other guy stepped back.

Is this one planning to take on the two of us by himself?” the knife-wielding young man said to Ada.

“How dare he underestimate Ada!

Ada will defeat him.” The Totem Clan mbers were muscular and strong, and also isolated from the world — in simple terms, they were brawny but simple-minded.
