Chapter 77

Lin Tian was slightly startled; Zhou Hao had actually advanced to the Divine Pulse Realm!?

This was indeed not good news.

Seeing Lin Tian fall silent, Su Shu said, "Don't worry too much. I'll talk to Master about this. Besides, although Zhou Hao isn't a good person, he wouldn't really try to kill you."

Lin Tian smiled and gently tapped Su Shu's forehead: "Naive girl."

At Qingfeng Ridge, Zhou Hao had once plotted to kill him. In the upcoming duel, since they had already signed a life-or-death contract, how could Zhou Hao possibly show mercy? In front of everyone from the Martial Mansion, Zhou Hao might not openly use harsh methods, but he would definitely use some underhanded tricks. Even if he didn't kill Lin Tian, he would at least cripple him.

Su Shu, covering her forehead, glared at Lin Tian: "What are you doing!"

"Nothing," Lin Tian smiled. "I just mean, don't worry. After all, he's just entered the Divine Pulse Realm."

"Just entered the Divine Pulse Realm, that's all?"

Su Shu's eyes widened. She was extremely worried after hearing the news, but this guy seemed completely unconcerned!

Even if he had just entered the Divine Pulse Realm, it was still the Divine Pulse Realm!

"Don't worry, really."

Lin Tian said.

"You're not worried! Why should I be worried!"

Su Shu puffed out her cheeks.

Lin Tian smiled. He was grateful that Su Shu was worried about him.

"By the way, where are you going?"

Su Shu asked.

"To the Raging Wave Heavy Array, to train my physical strength."

Lin Tian replied.

"Raging Wave Heavy Array..." Su Shu thought for a moment and said, "Fine, I'll go too. Let's go together."

Soon, the two arrived at the Raging Wave Heavy Array.

"Little demon, you're here."

Seeing Lin Tian arrive, Luo Xiao greeted him.

Lin Tian: "..."

Ever since he had used the Azure Lightning Sword Technique in the triple gravity zone and Luo Xiao saw it, Luo Xiao's way of addressing him had changed. "Little demon" made him feel embarrassed.

"Little demon?"

Su Shu stared at Lin Tian, curious.

Lin Tian was helpless and didn't bother to say anything.

After greeting Luo Xiao, Lin Tian walked into the Raging Wave Heavy Array, with Su Shu following behind.

"Truly a troublesome array."

As soon as they entered, Su Shu muttered. Although she was at the eighth level of Body Tempering, she was still a girl and her body was more delicate. The immense pressure from the heavy gravity in the Raging Wave Heavy Array made her very uncomfortable.

"Traversing the path of martial arts, enduring hardships is very normal. If not, why would martial artists be stronger than ordinary people?" Lin Tian smiled. "To gain something, you must pay a price."

Su Shu looked at Lin Tian in surprise. "I didn't expect you to say something so philosophical."

Lin Tian was speechless. What kind of person did this girl think he was?

Walking through the double gravity zone, both of them were very relaxed. As for Su Shu, she was already at the eighth level of Body Tempering, so double gravity wasn't much of a challenge, and this wasn't her first time entering the array. Soon, they walked a distance and reached the boundary between the triple gravity zone and the double gravity zone.

Lin Tian walked forward on his own, heading for the triple gravity zone.

"Hey, what are you doing!"

Su Shu pulled him back.

"What?" Lin Tian was slightly stunned, pointing to the triple gravity zone. "I'm going over there."

"Over there?" Su Shu's eyes widened. "That's the triple gravity zone. Without being at the ninth level of Body Tempering, going in is just asking for trouble! Are you looking for punishment?"

Since the founding of the Martial Mansion, the Raging Wave Heavy Array had always existed. Over the years, as disciples came and went, some people had summarized the adaptability of the Raging Wave Heavy Array. For the triple gravity zone, one needed to be at least at the ninth level of Body Tempering to enter, otherwise, it would be very difficult to withstand the immense pressure. If one entered the triple gravity zone without reaching the ninth level of Body Tempering, it would cause great damage to the body.

"Don't worry, I know my limits," Lin Tian said. After speaking, he casually stepped over and walked a few steps, then turned to look at Su Shu. "See?"

In recent days, he had spent several hours each day training in the Raging Wave Heavy Array and had long adapted to the triple gravity zone.

"You..."

Su Shu's eyes widened, looking at Lin Tian in disbelief. If Lin Tian's movements in the triple gravity zone were slightly difficult, she could have accepted it, but now, he looked completely at ease!

Lin Tian shrugged. "Do you want to try it out?"

"No!"

Su Shu refused outright. She had just reached the eighth level of Body Tempering, and entering the triple gravity zone would definitely be torture.

Lin Tian smiled, not minding, and started training in the triple gravity zone. Because Su Shu was there, he didn't take out the Return Origin Sword from the stone ring. The stone ring was too precious; it would cost at least 1.5 million spirit coins at the normal price. If Su Shu asked about it, he wouldn't know how to answer.

Four hours passed in a flash.

Lin Tian and Su Shu walked out of the Raging Wave Heavy Array. On the way back to their residence, Su Shu looked at Lin Tian as if he were a monster. At the eighth level of Body Tempering, he could already move freely in the triple gravity zone of the Raging Wave Heavy Array, which was too demonic.

"But you're still far from the Divine Pulse Realm. If you had trained for two years, Zhou Hao wouldn't stand a chance."

Su Shu pouted. She had been repeatedly surprised by Lin Tian's demonic abilities, but even so, the gap between the Body Tempering Realm and the Divine Pulse Realm was enormous. Lin Tian was currently at the eighth level of Body Tempering, and it was impossible for an eighth-level Body Tempering cultivator to defeat a Divine Pulse Realm expert.

Su Shu's voice was low, but Lin Tian still heard it clearly.

"If I had trained for two years, I could crush him with one finger."

Lin Tian said.

Su Shu rolled her eyes. "You're getting cocky!"

"Not at all, just being honest."

Lin Tian smiled.

It was already past noon. At a fork in the road, Lin Tian and Su Shu parted ways. Since the Inner Mansion Selection Tournament was in ten days, Su Shu also needed to prepare.

Back at his residence, Lin Tian washed up and entered his room to rest as usual.

In the evening, he got up on time, went to the top floor, and started practicing the Spirit Gathering Pattern.

"Divine Pulse Realm, in ten days, once I reach the ninth level of Body Tempering, I might have a chance to win."

Lin Tian thought to himself.

A cold light flashed in his eyes. Lin Tian took a deep breath and began to practice seriously.

After learning that Zhou Hao had advanced to the Divine Pulse Realm, Lin Tian felt a bit of pressure. In the following days, he no longer went to the Raging Wave Heavy Array but instead frantically practiced the Spirit Gathering Pattern to cultivate the Four Extremes Scripture. Previously, he used only one Spirit Gathering Pattern each time he practiced, but in these few days, he used three each time!

In the blink of an eye, another six days passed.

During these six days, except for resting and eating, Lin Tian practiced non-stop.

On this day, in the middle of the night, Lin Tian sat cross-legged on the top floor. Brilliant starlight fell, and the surrounding spiritual energy surged, completely enveloping him, more concentrated than ever before.

Lin Tian's eyes were tightly closed, and his brows furrowed.

At this moment, the pain of refining his organs suddenly intensified several times, as if pierced by ten thousand arrows.

Gradually, Lin Tian couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.

"So painful!"

Lin Tian gritted his teeth.

As the spiritual energy and the dense star power enveloped him, after another half an hour, a rumbling sound of wind and thunder emerged from his body, echoing loudly.

At this point, Lin Tian felt the pain intensify even more.

However, he endured it.

"Buzz!"

Silver light swirled around his body, becoming increasingly intense.

After another half an hour, just as Lin Tian was about to be unable to bear the inhuman pain, the wind and thunder sounds in his body became even more violent.

"Boom!"

A powerful force surged, filling every corner of his body.

The intense pain disappeared, and Lin Tian panted heavily. It took dozens of breaths before he could barely recover. Standing up, Lin Tian felt his body become several times lighter, and his strength had increased significantly.

"Ninth level of Body Tempering!"

After a brief moment of realization, Lin Tian's eyes shone with a sharp light. After six days of hard training, using nearly a hundred Spirit Gathering Patterns, he had finally reached the ninth level of Body Tempering!

Trying to take a deep breath, Lin Tian found it much easier than before.

Trying to hold his breath, he could now last for more than half an hour.

The Body Tempering Realm was almost at its limit!

Cultivating the Four Extremes Scripture again, Lin Tian found that the true essence in his flesh, bones, and organs had formed a large cycle, making his true essence more abundant and his blood qi much denser.

"Compared to the eighth level of Body Tempering, my combat power has increased by about three times," Lin Tian thought to himself.

A sharp light flashed in his eyes. Lin Tian sat cross-legged again and began to consolidate his ninth-level Body Tempering cultivation. Cultivating martial arts was like building a house; the foundation was the most important. If the foundation was not solid, the rest would not be stable. Lin Tian understood this very well, so after each advancement, he would carefully consolidate his realm.

Soon, the stars faded, and the morning light shone down.

Lin Tian descended from the top floor, rested in his room for a few hours, and didn't wake up until the afternoon. After a simple meal, Lin Tian headed to the Raging Wave Heavy Array, directly entering the triple gravity zone to practice the Azure Lightning Sword Technique.

"Clang!"

A sharp sword sound immediately rang out, and the sound of thunder echoed in all directions.

Outside the array, Luo Xiao looked into the Raging Wave Heavy Array. Although he couldn't see Lin Tian's figure clearly, because he had seen him in the double gravity zone before, he knew it was Lin Tian just by the sound. He was speechless: "This little demon seems to have gotten even stronger, really..."

Luo Xiao didn't know what to say.

Lin Tian practiced in the Raging Wave Heavy Array for four hours, deepening his understanding of the Azure Lightning Sword Technique.

Afterward, he left the array, returned to his residence, rested for a while, and then began practicing the Four Extremes Scripture again.

Time waits for no one. In the blink of an eye, the last four days passed.

During these four days, Lin Tian spent almost all his time in the Raging Wave Heavy Array. By the fourth day, he could barely enter the quadruple gravity zone, and he had completely mastered the three levels of the Azure Lightning Sword Technique. Now, each sword he swung was comparable to a mid-level Body Tempering martial technique, incredibly powerful.

PS: Sorry, I'm a bit stuck. The second update will be around 9 PM.
