Chapter 125: Comprehend Profound Meaning
The figure dispersed and began displaying more moves, seemingly trying to extract the most suitable sword move from this stone tablet.
After 15 minutes, the figures merged once more.
Second StyleMelt Water!
Again!
Sweat drops dripped off Ling Xiaos forehead. Even with his powerful soul power, this greatly strained him.
The two hour limit Ling Xiatioan had mentioned was not nonsense.
The figures in that stone tablet dispersed once more, and the movements became even more mysterious.
The more profound the meaning you delved into, the more difficult it became.
Ling Xiao gritted his teeth and discarded all distracting thoughts. Forgetting his pain, he spared no effort to comprehend the profound meaning.
Third StyleCondense Ice!
It was a completely different sword move. Although all had come from the same stone tablet, they were completely different.
It seemed that the saying, in the eyes of a thousand people, there were a thousand different Transcendent Martial Art styles, was truly correct.
Transcendent Martial Arts only contained a core profound meaning, and all the created tyles were all based on the martial artist. Therefore, even with the same profound meaning, the comprehended styles would be totally different.
Even each arts relative superiority or inferiority depended on the martial artists comprehension.
The comprehension of the third style was clearly more difficult than the second style. To delve deeper into the profound meaning of this Transcendent Martial Art Fragment, you had to expend ever greater soul power.
The fourth style was even more difficult.
Ling Xiao exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.
Persevere!
Even during the life or death crisis of the Ling Clan when facing the attacks of many Martial Masters, he had endured.
What could this small amount of pain count as?
He roughly judged the time after comprehending the third style to be an hour.
He estimated that the fourth style would take even longer.
There was a saying that sharpening the axe wouldnt interfere with cutting firewood.
He didnt continue to comprehend the profound art but rather circulated <Snow Lotus Qi Formula> and <Condense Soul Formula> to recover his physical and soul power.
Many disciples had already been carried out to rest due to excessive mental exhaustion.
On the Library Pavilions fourth floor remained only ten people including Ling Xiao, Ling Yihang, Ling Yixue, Ling Shuang, Ling Zhan and Ling Wuhen.
Seeing this situation, Ling Xiaotian and the three Supreme Elders couldnt help but frown.
The shorter the time spent comprehending, the lower the probability of getting results.
At that time, Ling Chen and Ling Feifan had been unable to maintain a comprehension state for two hours. They wonder if anyone could persist for two hours today.
After another 15 minutes, only six people remained.
Ling Xiaos physical and soul power had been restored to their peak states, so he finally put his energy into the stone tablet again.
Enter Soul activated.
Fourth StyleIce Heart!
The comprehension of the fourth style unexpectedly took less than the third style.
However, Ling Xiao quickly realized the reason: when comprehending the third style, he had already consumed a lot of soul and physical power, so it was natural for him to have slowed down.
Meanwhile, he had comprehended the fourth style at his peak state. Thus, he decided to try comprehending the fifth style.
Ling Xiao was unwilling to waste any time, so he immediately began to study the fifth style.
Meanwhile, the time limit of two hours approached.
Among the six remaining, Ling Shuang and Ling Zhan reluctantly opened their eyes and left one after another.
Although they had gained some insights, it was on a similar level to what Ling Chen and Ling Feifan had achieved; they had merely comprehended some superficial knowledge.
After a while, a terrifying aura spread throughout the Library Pavilions fourth floor.
Ling Wuhen opened his eyes with a look of excitement.
He had remained stagnant at Peak Rank Six Martial Vein Realm for more than a decade, but now, he had finally made a breakthrough!
He had advanced to Martial Master!
A Rank Seven Martial Vein martial artist!
Although he hadnt comprehended much from his Transcendent Martial Art Fragment, it was a blessing in disguise to achieve a breakthrough.
Now, there were only three people leftLing Xiao, Ling Yihang and Ling Yixue.
A while later, Ling Yihang stood up excitedly.
After nearly two hours, he had finally comprehended a move from the stone tablet. In fact, it was not just a move. It was far more powerful than any other martial arts he had ever cultivated.
He looked at Ling Yixue and Ling Xiao in amazement.
Those who could still preserve were truly amazing.
Ling Yixues hair was still white; it still had not recovered from the battle.
This was only a superficial symptom. The sadder thing was that the doctor of the Ling Clan had examined Ling Yixue after the battle and diagnosed her with a hopeless result.
Because of the excessive consumption of her latent potential, Ling Yixue had less than three years to live. Not only that, but every month, the pressure of her powerful soul power in her brain would lead to a splitting headache.
This pain was worse than dying.
The price she had paid was too great. However, even if Ling Yixue had known of this backlash beforehand, to save Ling Xiao, she wouldnt hesitate to forcibly break the seal in her mind if she were given the chance again.
Naturally, if Ling Yixue broke through to the Transcendent Realm, she would recover her lost vitality.
However, that was easier said than done.
Furthermore, there was another method, a panacea that would increase her lifespan. However, to all martial artists, that kind of thing was the most valuable of treasures. Not only were they very expensive, but they were also very difficult to find. The degree of difficulty to find them was no less than that of advancing to the Transcendent Realm.
After Ling Xiao had heard this news, he had neither cried nor been dissapointed. He had simply said Hereafter, I will be responsible for Senior Apprentice Sister Yixue!
Why did he crazily seek to improve his strength?
He wanted to leave Heavenly Peak City and visit the bigger cities to find a medicine that would increase Ling Yixues lifespan and reduce her suffering.
Are you awake?
As Ling Yihang prepared to leave, he saw Ling Yixue slowly open her eyes.
Although she had comprehended more than Ling Yihang, she had only formed three styles.
Ling Yixue smiled. Glancing at Ling Xiao, she muttered, Junior Apprentice Brother is truly a hero that descended from the heavens. I hope he can fully comprehend the profound meaning of his tablet. The stone tablets here should all have five levels of profound meaning, so one can comprehend at most five styles.
Ling Xiaos breathing grew rapid as his chest continuously rose and fell.
Sweat dripped down his forehead and splashed the ground. Saying that he was covered in sweat would be no exageration.
Only a bit of time was left.
The incense used to estimate two hours was about to burn out.
Once this incense completely burned out, even if Ling Xiao didnt wake up, he would be forcefully awakened.
Can he?
Ling Yin nervously asked.
Supreme Elder Ling Yin who had once greatly disliked Ling Xiao cared a lot about him now. The degree of care was comparable to his own grandson Ling Feifan.
After all, one must not be ungrateful.
If not for Ling Xiao defeating both Fei Mu and Fei Yun with his incredible wisdom and ability, it would have been too late even if the divine sword had descended since the Ling Clan would have already been slaughtered.
Definitely! Because he is Ling Xiao!
Ling Xiaotian had full confidence in Ling Xiao.
Fifth Style Ice Blizzard!
Finally, as he comprehended the fifth style, the afterimages all condensed.
At this moment, a boundless ice blizzard appeared in Ling Xiaos field of vision.
This terrifying ice blizzard nearly froze his soul, giving him the ultimate test.
