Nine Dragons Devouring Heaven Technique

The night is like water.

Lin Yan was sitting cross-legged on the terrace alone, calming down.

During the day, he fought with several top kings and also fought with the ancestor of the Luo family. Although this put a lot of pressure on him, it also made him feel that his understanding of martial arts had deepened.

"My current strength has reached the critical point. Before, when I was below the semi-saint, I was almost invincible in the Great Void Art. But when facing the semi-saint, I was hindered several times. It's almost useless."

"The Nine Tribulations Battle Body has also reached its limit. Unless the physical body can become a saint, the Nine Tribulations Battle Body and the physical body alone cannot withstand the attack of a semi-saint."

"My cultivation has reached a bottleneck. I must obtain Saint King-level dragon blood. Otherwise, it will be impossible to improve."

"My True Soul Condensation Technique has also reached its peak... Although I am using the True Soul Condensation Technique now, my combat power has not changed qualitatively, or in other words, my clone is no longer enough to make up for the gap between me and the Semi-Saint..."

“Half-Saint… No wonder so many strong men are stuck at this step. Even I can feel the existence of this natural barrier.”

In the past, Lin Yan relied on various means to challenge opponents of higher levels regardless of their realm.

When he was in the Earthly Profound Realm, he attacked the Heavenly Profound Realm.

When in Tianxuan realm, he fought against the king.

But now, he felt very exhausted, and all the means he used were unable to help him defeat the Semi-Saint.

"Why do you think a saint is called the Rebirth Realm? It is because this realm is a true transformation. If it is so easy to challenge a higher level, how can you still call yourself a saint?"

Taixu Sword Spirit smiled.

"How did Master defeat the Saint back then?"

Lin Yan was curious.

At that time, Taixu Sword King had not entered the saint realm, he was only at the peak of the ninth level of the king, but his combat power was not weaker than that of a saint.

He heard that several disciples under the Peerless Sword King were at this stage.

Including the Dark Abyss Demon King, who seems to be able to defeat the saints.

Before, he thought he could do it when he reached this stage, but when he reached the ninth heaven king, he felt how difficult it was to achieve this step.

"Become a Heavenly King! Only a Heavenly King can defeat a Saint!"

Taixu Sword Spirit Road.

"What is the Heavenly King?"

Lin Yan had previously thought that the Luo family’s ancestors belonged to the Heavenly King level, because Taixu Sword King was also at the peak of the ninth level of the Life and Death Realm.

But after the real battle, he felt something was wrong...

Those Luo family ancestors seemed to be far from reaching the level of the legendary Taixu Sword King. Even the Luo family's ancestor, that semi-saint-level existence, seemed to be inferior to the legendary Heavenly King.

"If you want to be called the Heavenly King, you must first reach the peak of the ninth level of the Life and Death Realm. This is not difficult for many people. The real difficulty lies in that in addition to cultivation, other aspects must also reach the peak. Back then, the old master's martial arts was at the peak of the ninth level of the Life and Death Realm, his physical body was at the great perfection of the king level, and his mental power was also at the great perfection of the king level. His physical body, soul, and laws were all perfect, and only then did he achieve the position of Heavenly King!"

Taixu Sword Spirit Road.

"It's so difficult!"

At this moment, Lin Yan finally understood why there are so few Heavenly Kings... For ordinary people, it is already very difficult to achieve perfection in martial arts.

This needs to be accumulated!

For example, Luo Cheng, the great elder of the Luo family, is at the ninth level of the Life and Death Realm, but to reach the Great Perfection, it will take at least a hundred years of accumulation!

Although consuming resources can speed up the process, not everyone can afford to play in that state.

"Normal accumulation over a hundred years would require about 500 million Mysterious Crystal resources. If you want to achieve the effect of a hundred years of accumulation within ten years, you will need to invest at least 1 billion Mysterious Crystal resources."

"If we want to shorten the ten years to five years, we will need two to three billion Mystic Crystals!"

"Two billion black crystals, not two billion spirit stones."

Taixu Sword Spirit sneered.

A sect like the Tianlong Sword Sect only has 20 million black crystals a year. Even the most ordinary king-level great perfection requires the entire Tianlong Sword Sect to accumulate for more than 20 years without eating or drinking.

If one wants a genius to accumulate a hundred years of experience in five years, the Tianlong Sword Sect will need to invest all of its resources into it without eating or drinking for a hundred years.

This is just martial arts cultivation.

The resources required to cultivate spiritual power and physical training are more than those required for pure martial arts...

It is almost impossible to reach the top level in all three dimensions.

"These are just resources. You have to know that some people are not talented. Even if you give them endless resources, they can't reach the level of a king."

Taixu Sword Spirit Road.

“No wonder Heavenly Kings are so rare! Even looking back at the past ten thousand years, there weren’t many… This is no easier than breaking through to become a Saint!”

Lin Yan sighed.

He had such incredible talent, but his martial arts had only reached the ninth level of the king level. His mental strength and physical body were only at the level of an ordinary king.

Since he does not have enough energy, if he practices three arts at the same time, it will definitely delay his martial arts training. It is estimated that his current cultivation level cannot even reach the fifth level of the King.

"And it seems that there is no substantial benefit in becoming a Heavenly King. If it were me, instead of cultivating all aspects to the pinnacle, it would be better to become a Saint in one go, which would improve my strength more."

Lin Yan said.

With his talent, after he becomes a saint, it will be absolutely impossible for those Heavenly Kings to go against him.

"If you only look at the present, becoming a saint in advance is indeed more effective than becoming a king, but if you look at the long term, it will be different. If you want to become an emperor in the future, you must have a deep enough foundation, and you need to cultivate each realm to the extreme! If any realm is not cultivated to perfection, it may become a fatal flaw when you become an emperor in the future, and it will be infinitely magnified in the emperor's calamity!"

At this time, Venerable Shenglong spoke.

"So, if you want to become an emperor, you must cultivate the foundation of each realm firmly!"

Lin Yan secretly said.

"somebody is coming!"

At this time, Venerable Shenglong suddenly said.

Lin Yan's heart moved, and he immediately dispersed his divine sense, but he did not notice anything: "Why can't I sense it?"

“I didn’t sense it either…”

Taixu swordsmanship.

"That's because the person who came is very powerful, reaching the level of a semi-saint, and he has the means to conceal his aura, so even a saint would find it difficult to detect his presence."

Venerable Saint Dragon temporarily lent his eyesight to Lin Yan, and Lin Yan then discovered a dark shadow in the corner of the palace.

The shadow lurks in the darkness, and even careful observation makes it difficult to detect the other party's existence.

If it weren’t for Venerable Saint Dragon lending his eyesight to Lin Yan, Lin Yan might have ignored the other person even if he passed by him.

"Who are you? Why do you come to see me in the middle of the night?"

Lin Yan spoke.

"Can you see me?"

In the darkness, Jin Yu walked out slowly. He looked very surprised, because with his concealment skills, even a semi-saint-level strongman would find it difficult to detect his presence.

Otherwise, he would not have spared Saint Jin Yang.

But Lin Yan was able to notice it at the first moment?

"It seems that this guy is indeed a little different!"

Jin Yu said secretly.
