Chapter 91: Chapter 65: Enduring to Death_l

Three years had passed, and Xu Yang’s Cultivation had not improved, still lingering at the third tier of Body Training, the Muscle Bone Realm.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t been working hard, but rather there was a problem with his Cultivation Technique.

The Fish-Dragon Transformation Skill, which he had created based on the Martial Arts Scripture and adapted to his own body, was inadequate in many ways. Previously, he had only developed it up to the realms of Qi Blood, skin and flesh, and muscle and bone, which is why his cultivation could only reach the Muscle Bone Realm.

Fortunately, over the past three years, by observing the bloodline changes in his own body and the path of the Green Fish returning to its ancestral dragon form, he had finally deduced the fourth tier of the Fish-Dragon Transformation Skill for Body Training.

The fourth tier of Body Training should correspond to the Rebirth Realm!

To shed one’s mortal body and reborn, that is beyond the ordinary and can be called a demon cultivator.

The fourth tier of the Martial Path, Condensing Spirit, requires “Condensing Spirit and Unifying Dao” to achieve.

Then, for the fourth tier of Body Training, the Rebirth Realm, is there also a need for “Condensing Spirit and Unifying Dao”?

Yes!

Because this tier is created by Xu Yang based on the Martial Arts Scripture, it naturally couldn’t deviate from the core principle.

The Martial Path requires Condensing Spirit, and so does Body Training, so as to draw in the Heavenly Earth Prime Spirit into oneself.

The power of the Divine Soul is equally crucial for a body training demon cultivator.

This was the reason why the Giant Turtle, among the five overlord, was far ahead of the others.

Being a natural Alien beast born with intelligence, it cultivated much faster than other Spirit Monsters. While other Spirit Monsters that stepped into the third tier and transformed into Demon Monsters were blocked by the “Awakening Tribulation” and struggled to shed their mortal forms and become demon cultivators,

Only it moved forward unimpeded, entering the fourth tier and becoming Blackwater River’s sole Demon Beast!

This demonstrates the importance of intelligence and wisdom for a Demon Beast.

Human cultivators require “Condensing Spirit and Unifying Dao” to step into the fourth realm of the Martial Path.

Demon cultivators need “Awakening Consciousness and Gaining Wisdom” to step into the fourth tier of Body Training. When you get down to it, it’s merely four words.

Unity of Heaven and Man!

By seizing the essence of heaven and earth and infringing upon the profound secrets of the sun and moon, one can obtain their own Dao fruit.

With the Cultivation Technique’s revisions complete, the next step was to cultivate.

This wasn’t a difficult task for Xu Yang, as he had experienced “Condensing Spirit and Unifying Dao” before. Even if the system changed slightly, cultivating anew was easily within his grasp.

This was the change in Cultivation and the Cultivation Technique.

It’s worth mentioning offhand, though it’s not the main point.

The main point is the Skill Traits.

In three years’ time, many skills had changed.

In terms of eating, his “Daily Devour One Ox” had progressed to “Daily Devour Ten Oxen,” with all aspects such as eating, digestion, and absorption abilities all enhanced.

Moreover, a new trait called “Return to the Ancestors” had been developed, with the effect of purifying the bloodline power of food and absorbing it. For example, if other Spirit Monsters ate a Dragon Species carp, they would only gain a bit of mottled dragon bloodline. But when Xu Yang ate it, he could purify it, obtaining a bit of pure dragon bloodline. The difference in quality was at least tenfold!

This was the eating skill.

Looking at the breathing skill, it also had a new trait—Blood Qi Purification.

This trait also related to “bloodline,” enabling one to purify the blood Qi in the body through breathing, thereby enhancing the bloodline’s purity.

Although the effect of each enhancement was minuscule, almost negligible, breathing is a continuous activity day and night. The accumulated benefit of such quantity was quite considerable.

With this, along with the eating skill’s “Return to the Ancestors,” Xu Yang’s bloodline power had become more purified and strengthened during this period.

But even this wasn’t the key point.

The real focus was still…

Farming (Taming Alien Beasts, Enlightening Spirit Beasts, Strong and Sturdy,

Thriving Growth, Dragon King’s Command)

Xu Yang had transferred his main body’s Farming skills and, through three years of hardship and intensive practice, had developed three brand-new traits —Enlightening Spirit Beasts, Thriving Growth, and Dragon King’s Command.

Enlightening Spirit Beasts, as the name suggests, involves enlightening Spirit Beasts.

Xu Yang could spend Cultivation, bloodline, and Spiritual Energy to enlighten creatures, accelerating their growth, strengthening them, and even awakening their intelligence.

Thriving Growth, also self-explanatory, enables the farmed Spirit Beasts to grow robustly. Combined with the already existing Strong and Sturdy trait, it could significantly enhance the overall quality of the Spirit Beasts.

As for the last trait, Dragon King’s Command, it allowed Xu Yang to “command” all Aquatic Clan Spirit Beasts of lower tiers, achieving a unity of mind and effortless control, making them do whatever he wished.

Coupled with the original Taming Alien Beasts skill, Xu Yang spent three years in Blackwater River intensively farming and developing, dramatically increasing the volume of the Aquatic Clan, substantially boosting the number of species, and raising a large number of Spirit Beasts. Compared to three years ago, when he had swept them clean, the numbers had multiplied several times over.

This demonstrated the power of the Farming skill and the wonder of Blackwater Spiritual Qi.

Even a skillful woman can’t cook without rice. Farming skills can only improve farming effects, not create out of nothing. Without a good environment and ample resources, he wouldn’t be able to raise anything worthwhile.

Blackwater Spiritual Qi was the best environment and resource. It could even replace food; many fish species didn’t even need to eat, relying only on the pure Yuan Qi that drifted from the forbidden zones to meet their needs for survival, growth, and reproduction.

With such resources at his disposal, Xu Yang’s farming Great Ye naturally progressed rapidly.

Nowadays, Blackwater River contained 13,485 types of Aquatic Clan members, with 5,617 species being farmed in groups, alongside 35 Demon Monsters, 560 Spirit Monsters, and 2,352 Alien beasts…

This was the result of the Farming skill combined with Blackwater Spiritual Qi.

Although the farming was a great success, Xu Yang did not make all the farmed beings his prey. Instead, he carefully selected various kinds of Demon

began to train.

Yes, he was training troops!

Without training troops, how could he completely clear the field and impose a food blockade on the Giant Turtle?
