Chapter 27

"Great timing!"

Ling Dao let out a loud shout, his blood surging like a mighty river, and the strength in his hands instantly surged. Even Ao Long, caught off guard, had to take three steps back. Ling Dao's legs instantly broke through the earth.

Originally, he needed several more days to reach the Blood Condensation Realm. However, under the pressure of Ao Long's palms, he had no choice but to resist. Because of this, the time it took for him to reach the Blood Condensation Realm was greatly shortened. With Ao Long's help, he actually broke through to the Blood Condensation Realm on the spot.

When he was in the Bone Tempering Realm, he had over ten thousand pounds of strength in one hand. Now, he had twenty thousand pounds of strength in one hand, doubling it. This kind of improvement was truly terrifying. Ordinary True Qi Realm martial artists only had a few thousand to ten thousand pounds of strength.

Unfortunately, the more advanced one gets, the harder it is to increase strength. Now that Ling Dao had twenty thousand pounds of strength in one hand, it would not be as easy to improve further. Moreover, the Blood Condensation Realm is the third layer of the Body Tempering Realm. After he consolidates, he can think about advancing to the True Qi Realm.

"You're really a freak. To have such formidable strength in the Blood Condensation Realm, if you break through to my level, I'm afraid I would be far inferior to you in terms of strength! No more fighting. I've already helped you break through to the Blood Condensation Realm, so I have done you a favor. Don't tell anyone about what happened tonight!"

Seeing Ling Dao's fighting spirit, Ao Long waved his hand, not intending to continue the fight. Strength was not Ao Long's forte, and continuing the fight would be meaningless. He just wanted to do Ling Dao a favor, and he had already done it.

"Don't worry, it won't do me any good to tell anyone. I'm not that bored!"

Ling Dao shrugged. He had also seen the four young women naked, so he naturally didn't want to say anything. Moreover, having just broken through to the Blood Condensation Realm, he was in a good mood because the date for the outer sect disciples' competition was approaching.

If he had only participated in the outer sect disciples' competition at the Bone Tempering Realm, it would have been extremely difficult to win first place. Now, with the Blood Condensation Realm, he had a much better chance. With his current substantial foundation and the Qi Condensation Pill, he had a greater chance of breaking through to the True Qi Realm.

"Kid, remember my name is Ao Long. If anyone from the Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect bullies you, just mention my name, and I guarantee they'll be scared shitless!"

Ao Long patted Ling Dao's shoulder and then turned to leave. By revealing his name and saying such things, it showed that he recognized Ling Dao as a friend. Currently, Ling Dao didn't have the qualifications to be his friend, but he could see that Ling Dao had boundless potential.

It must be said that under normal circumstances, Ao Long was quite dignified and indeed looked like a gentleman. However, after seeing the previous Ao Long, Ling Dao wouldn't really think Ao Long was a gentleman, not even a hypocrite, just a thief.

"Ao Long, huh? I'll remember that!"

Ling Dao didn't plan to rely on Ao Long for protection. For one, he had only met Ao Long once, and for another, he didn't plan to rely on others. He would solve all his troubles himself.

Now that he was a Blood Condensation Realm martial artist, he truly feared no one among the outer sect disciples. Anyone who came to cause trouble would only be seeking their own death. What he needed to do now was to consolidate the Blood Condensation Realm.

"Unfortunately, I haven't mastered the Thunderless Sword yet. Otherwise, my combat power would definitely improve to another level!"

Ling Dao had no shortage of combat experience in the Body Tempering Realm. Even if he hadn't fought much, it didn't matter. Others might lack combat experience, but he was an exception. After all, in his previous life, he was a combat maniac, which was why he impulsively attacked the Purple薇圣地 (Purple Wei Holy Land).

...

In the following days, Ling Dao stayed in his room, practicing the Sky-Cleaving Sword Technique. When the outer sect disciples' competition came, many elders would definitely come to watch, and he didn't want to expose any weaknesses. If he could learn the Sky-Cleaving Sword Technique, it would be even better.

"Indeed, it's impossible. The Primal Chaos Extermination Technique is too domineering and doesn't allow me to practice other techniques! If that's the case, I can't really be considered a true sword cultivator!"

As a sword cultivator, he hadn't practiced any sword techniques but instead practiced a body tempering technique. No matter how you looked at it, it was somewhat bizarre, and he wouldn't be able to perform some intricate moves.

Fortunately, there was a way out. Just as Ling Dao was about to give up, he finally found a solution. He discovered that the Primal Chaos Extermination Technique could simulate the Sky-Cleaving Sword Technique, and it was exactly the same as the real thing.

"Could it be that the Primal Chaos Extermination Technique can encompass everything and simulate any technique?"

Ling Dao immediately used the Primal Chaos Extermination Technique to simulate the Ling Family Sword Canon. To his delight, it was successful in just a moment. If that was the case, wouldn't it mean he could practice any sword technique at will?

One must know that if a sword cultivator wanted to change techniques, they would have to abandon their previous technique and switch to the new one. Of course, this wouldn't lower their realm, but the few days of weakness during the change could be life-threatening if someone took advantage of it.

However, now Ling Dao had no such concerns. Since he had the Primal Chaos Extermination Technique, he could practice both the Sky-Cleaving Sword Technique and the Ling Family Sword Canon without any problems. No wonder the Purple Wei Holy Land valued the Primal Chaos Extermination Technique so much; it was truly a heaven-defying technique.

Finding the right path, Ling Dao's practice became much easier. The Sky-Cleaving Sword Technique was only a low-grade technique, so it wasn't hard to practice. In just one day, Ling Dao completed the Body Tempering section of the Sky-Cleaving Sword Technique. If others knew, they would definitely be shocked. Others worked hard for years to succeed, but he did it in one day.

The next day, as soon as Ling Dao stepped out of his room, he noticed that many outer sect disciples were looking at him. Unlike before, there was no disdain in their eyes, but rather a hint of reverence. After all, Ling Dao had defeated Gao Bu Fan with one sword, and they knew they couldn't do that.

"Now I'll return the Sky-Cleaving Sword Technique and the Thunderless Sword to the scripture hall. I've already mastered the Sky-Cleaving Sword Technique, but unfortunately, I haven't fully grasped the Thunderless Sword. However, I have memorized the Thunderless Sword, so the scripture is no longer necessary!"

"Rumble"

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, thunder roared, and a heavy rain began to pour. Instead of seeking shelter, Ling Dao looked up at the lightning in the sky with a burning gaze, his eyes brighter than ever!
