Chapter 605 390: Heavenly Yin Refining Form Technique
The class at the Destruction Hall ended.
As the first person to comprehend the truth of the Iron Tree Flowering, Chen Ku naturally caused a huge sensation in the Divine Martial Academy again.
"A prodigious talent!"
"If Chen Ku truly makes the Iron Tree Bloom, then he most likely will have a share of the true inheritor quota at the Destruction Tower. If he can learn the four major inheritances from the Destruction Tower, on the battlefield between the two armies, he might really become the great nemesis of the Yuan Country's Qi Cultivators."
"I hope to follow Junior Brother Chen in the future, feels like the future is boundless!"
Among the chatter of many students.
Chen Ku arrived at the Martial Training Camp.
He murmured to himself:
"Although I've been at Divine Martial Academy for just over a month and only familiar with some students from the Destruction Hall, Divine Martial Academy gathers geniuses from several provinces. There should be people with Pure Yin Bodies and Yin Spirit Roots."
Clearly, he wanted to explore his classmates.
After more than a month, many have likely left their imprint projection in the Martial Training Camp, so he wanted to enter and take a look.
Just as he arrived at the Martial Training Camp.
He saw someone walking out from the White Jade Square.
The two passed by each other.
It turned out to be Tang Xuan, whom he defeated in the last round of the selection exam.
Tang Xuan, upon seeing Chen Ku, was slightly startled, then turned away expressionlessly.
Chen Ku felt strange.
After walking a few steps forward, he heard the discussions among the Martial Training Camp students.
"Senior Brother Tang Xuan lost again."
"Chen Ku's scattered palm technique is perfect martial arts, not a flaw in sight."
While everyone was discussing, they noticed the main figure coming over and they lowered their voices. Some outgoing students greeted Chen Ku proactively:
"Senior Brother Chen, it's been over a month, you're finally back to the Martial Training Camp. I heard you just broke through the second marrow cleansing recently. Are you here to re-evaluate your combat prowess?"
During the first marrow cleansing at the Eighth Realm, he defeated Tang Xuan, whose combat power was at Ninth Realm First Layer Heaven, and many felt Chen Ku had spare strength.
Now, with another realm breakthrough, can he further advance from the Six Great Limit Domain into the Seven Limit Domain and challenge Ninth Realm Third Layer Heaven?
To the student who greeted him, Chen Ku responded with a smile, "Yes, here to try. It's not about testing combat power; it's mainly because I had some insights on the Tao Rhythm of the Destruction Hall earlier, so I want to see if there are any imprints specializing in Pure Yin Martial Arts in the Martial Training Camp to verify my insights."
His words were an impromptu idea.
For it was said after Divine Martial Academy started, some belligerent individuals treated the Martial Training Camp as an innate 'arena' to temper themselves, opting for practical combat as a method to stimulate their physique and martial arts breakthroughs.
Seeing these regulars, he casually probed them.
"Pure Yin Martial Arts?"
The student in front evidently felt honored not just because this big name had questions for him but also laughed:
"Senior Brother, you've found the right person. Our Divine Martial Academy's Martial Training Camp not only holds over eighty percent of our cohort's imprints for mutual honing, but there are also numerous imprints from masters over the generations. As for Pure Yin Martial Arts, let me check for you..."
As he spoke, he retrieved a booklet from his waist.
Chen Ku looked curiously, seeing it was a record by this student of information on various Martial Practitioner imprints in the Martial Training Camp, from First to Tenth Realm, very detailed.
After looking for a while, the student pointed it out to Chen Ku and said:
"Among the Martial Practitioners specializing in Pure Yin Martial Arts here at the Martial Training Camp, as per my booklet, there are eighteen in total. Of course, given your level, I'll skip recommending those below the Seventh and Eighth Realm, mainly these few..."
Holding the booklet, he pointed to a page saying:
"This one, Senior Sister Sang Hensong from our cohort, is proficient in Pure Yin Martial Arts. Hmm... let me see, she's a student of the Yin Yang Hall. There's a 'Heavenly Yin Refining Form Technique' she practices. I've seen her training — truly formidable! Her cultivation surpasses Senior Brother Tang Xuan's, Eighth Realm with three times marrow cleansing, and combat prowess at Ninth Realm Second Layer Heaven, ranking top three in the entire academy at this combat level."
"Senior Sister Sang Hensong?"
Remembering, Chen Ku realized he indeed heard this name when Yin Yang Hall's Hall Master mentioned her while studying there.
However, as he hadn't actively followed up, he was unclear about her specific details.
Chen Ku etched this into memory.
Then continued asking:
"Are there others?"
"Yes, Senior Brother Chen, take a look..."
The student recommended a few more, including one Martial Practitioner from fifty years ago who left an imprint in the Martial Training Camp.
After listening, Chen Ku casually took out a spiritual medicine from the Hero King Realm and handed it to the student, saying with a smile, "Thank you, your information is useful to me. A little token, please accept."
Without leaving room to refuse, he stuffed it into his arms and strode towards one of the canopies within the Martial Training Camp.
Many who have been observing him since Chen Ku first arrived here were also curiously watching him enter that Martial Training Heaven and Earth.
"Senior Brother Chen is testing his combat strength again. Who will he choose as his opponent this time?"
Under the curious gaze of everyone.
Chen Ku appeared above the heavenly curtain.
[Welcome to Martial Training Heaven and Earth, Immortal Institute student Chen Ku]
The grand Martial Arts Heavenly Sound echoed in his ear.
[Please select your challenge requirements, difficulty level...]
Chen Ku directly called up the martial arts imprint of that Yin Yang Hall Senior Sister, Sang Hensong, according to the information provided by the fellow student.
[Please choose the battle scene]
"The ocean."
Chen Ku calmly spoke; it was just right, as the new abilities he obtained from Tang Xuan and the Xuanwu Spirit Body suited a watery environment.
[Chosen the Ninth Realm Second Layer strength 'Sang Hensong' as the challenge target, battle scene 'ocean.' Before starting the challenge, a payment of three thousand Martial Destiny is required. Currently, Chen Ku's Martial Destiny quota in the Martial Training Camp is five thousand, beginning deduction]
This was Chen Ku's martial arts imprint monthly income in the Martial Training Camp, just enough for one or two challenges.
[Challenge begins]
With a change in the scene before his eyes.
From Chen Ku's perspective, the virtual void world continuously changed, and soon, he found himself stepping over an endless ocean.
Soon.
His entire vision was captivated by the silhouette of a stunning Taoist with flowing black robes in the distant sky and ocean, her delicate hand hanging down.
The black-robed Taoist appeared to be in her twenties, possessing deep starry eyes, a dignified and serene face, exuding an ethereal and captivating aura.
Ooh la!
In the instant Chen Ku discovered her, the female Taoist named 'Sang Hensong' struck forcefully.
Her pale wrist emerged from her Taoist robe, reaching towards Chen Ku, her slender fingers seemingly grasping the truth of life and death among all things, launching a symbolic attack at Chen Ku.
This symbol appeared to be composed of True Gang, yet it circulated with the atmosphere of life and death, causing the air currents over the sea to wail and shriek, extremely sharp.
[Sang Hensong's imprint has ill intentions towards the main, eliminating her grants Eighth Realm Evil Qi]
"Life and Death Talisman!"
Chen Ku's brow arched, instantly recognizing the martial art "Life and Death Talisman" taught by the Divine Martial Academy's Yin Yang Hall, which claimed that once hit, life and death were controlled by others, allowing manipulation of one's existence.
However, the Divine Martial Academy had only opened for a month, and this young Taoist surprisingly mastered the Yin Yang Hall's inherited martial technique, and her proficiency seemed not low, nearly reaching great achievement level.
Nonetheless, though the Life and Death Talisman was formidable, it was ultimately categorized as a concealed weapon and relied on technique and speed.
Chen Ku reacted with incredible swiftness, pressing his thumb into his fist's center and flicking his finger, almost like launching a marble.
Whoosh~~~
A drop of water instantly transformed into the hardest and most terrifying concealed weapon under the heavens, shooting towards the Life and Death Talisman, stirring up boundless air wailing.
In the blink of an eye.
Bam!
Dripping Water Strength struck the Life and Death Talisman, shattering all the True Gang, turning into black True Gang Qi.
Beneath the heavenly curtain.
"So powerful, Senior Brother Chen indeed possesses Ninth Realm Second Layer strength, not slipping from the Six Great Limit Domain after a breakthrough, firmly standing in that domain."
The students witnessed Sang Hensong's Life and Death Talisman being instantly unraveled by Chen Ku.
Previously, someone challenged this Senior Sister, and as soon as the Life and Death Talisman emerged, the challenger lost, even requiring the teacher from the Yin Yang Hall to provide the antidote.
Now, Chen Ku effortlessly broke this move.
This indicated Chen Ku didn't slip from the Six Great Limit Domain; it's known that entering the Breakthrough Domain isn't permanent, and a decline due to poor state, cultivation technique fatigue, or injuries happens to many.
Those breaking the limit rarely maintain their domain, especially challenging to make breakthroughs on that basis.
In the heavenly curtain at this moment.
After the Life and Death Talisman was broken, the gracefully robed Taoist disintegrated into feathered light, vanishing from place…
"This is…"
Before Chen Ku could be surprised by how similar it was to his Loose Cultivation Transformation, 'Gathering Spirit and Dispelling Qi' Divine Skill.
In the next instant, countless fragments of feather light quickly reformed one foot to Chen Ku's left into the female Taoist's body, her fingers like a knife, extremely sharp, carrying a shocking murderous aura, stabbing towards Chen Ku's neck.
"Here it is, the Heavenly Yin Refining Form Technique! A cultivation body that allows the physical form to become elusive!"
