Martial Universe

The dark vortex channel was like a gigantic black python as it chargedbarbarically into the Pill River, before finally connecting with it’s deepestdepths…

Ding!

From within the channel, a light ray suddenly shot out explosively whiletravelling at a frightening speed towards the deepest depths of the vortex. Atthis moment , a golden ray of light started to gradually brighten in thedarkness of the depths.

“Have I finally arrived…”

Lin Dong narrowed his eyes and stared at the enormous golden light in front ofhim. From with the golden light, he felt a fluctuation that was extremely vastand savage. That was likely the golden Nirvana Qi that was born at the depthsof the Pill River…

“This fluctuation feels somewhat familiar…” Lin Dong muttered to himself,before a jolt went through his mind as he recalled. Was this the same goldenenergy that was present within his body after swallowing the Yuan Spirit thatwas in Lin Langtian’s body? From the looks of it, these two types of energyshould be similar. However, the Nirvana Qi that was born within the Pill Riverdid not have any consciousness and was not subject to anyone’s control.

“Looks like the pressure is starting to increase…”

Lin Dong’s eyes were staring at the two flanks of the vortex, before movingtowards the bottom of the river. The pressure was gradually was gettingstronger and strong, and soon it made his skin feel uncomfortable.

The Pill River was unlikely any ordinary river and the liquid that was flowingthrough it was not ordinary river water. Instead, it was formed by Nirvanawater created from the condensation of Nirvana Qi. The pressure resulting fromit was something even a Nirvana Stage expert like Lin Dong, did not dare tounderestimate.

“RING!”

With a thought, azure light started to surge around his body, immediatelydissipating much of the pressure. Following his gradual mastery of the GreenHeaven Materialized Dragon Skill, the resilience and strength of Lin Dong’sphysical body had exceeded that of a Six Yuan Nirvana Stage expert.

After the green light fully enveloped Lin Dong’s entire body, he didn’thesitate and explosively shot outwards. Finally he shot out of the vortexchannel and headed towards pulsating golden light at the bottom of the river.

HISS!

When Lin Dong just came out of the vortex channel, he started to sinkdownwards violently. A vastly stronger pressure started to seep into him,causing the green light enveloping him to turn slightly dimmer.

After realizing this situation, Lin Dong’s expression turned solemn andserious. With a faint tremor of his body, row after row of green scales startedto rapidly wrap around his entire body. Just like a suit of armor, they coveredalmost every inch of his body.

With the emergence of the scale armor, the pressure immediately dissipated,finally allowing Lin Dong to observe his surroundings. This was the bottom ofthe Pill River, however no silt or mud was present. Instead it was filled withrich golden light which radiated outwards, forming an area with a radius ofroughly ten metres. Outside of this radius of golden light was a dark and murkyenvironment.

Lin Dong gaze swept around his surroundings meticulously, before congealing onthe large patch of golden light in front of him. At the bottom of the PillRiver, the golden light and the Nirvana Qi existed beside each other, with nota slightest hint of mixing.

“So this is the Nirvana Golden Qi, what a savage and potent energy…”

Lin Dong slowly stretched his dragon scale covered palm and reached within thegolden light. As his hand reached deeper and deeper, he gradually felt aviscous sensation. The violent fluctuations that followed caused Lin Dong tofeel a faint stabbing pain on his hand.

“It’s time to act.”

Lin Dong gave a sigh in his heart and no longer hesitated. With a step heentered into the radiating golden light.

Humm!

As he walked into the golden light, the scales on his body started to producea faint humming noise. Green light started to blossom outwards, protecting LinDong against the corrosion caused by the violent energy.

After completely submerging himself within the golden light, Lin Dongproceeded to sit down. With a solemn expression, he formed a seal with bothhands, as a suctioning force started to pulsate outwards from his body.

ROAR!

As the suctioning force started to proliferate, the calm golden light startedto seethe violently. Golden Qi bubbles started to explode around Lin Dong’sbody, as ray after ray of golden light shot into Lin Dong’s body like athunderstorm.

As the rays of golden light shot into his body, they exploded into countlessamounts of golden mist as they enter his body before travelling deeper into hisbody’s core.

HISS!

As those golden fog attached onto his internal organs, Lin Dong’s face turnedboiling hot. Sucking in a deep breath,clattering sounds could be heard escapingfrom the seams of his teeth.

The mist was like boiling lava and as it coursed through his body, hismeridians, muscles and even bogs started to gradually turn red hot, akin tobeing roasted by fire.

“Such violent Nirvana Golden Qi, however this is not enough to deter me!”

Lin Dong clenched his teeth and with a thought, a mysterious dragon roar startto resound within his body. This sound wave started to spread to every cornerof his body. When it reached his meridians, muscles and bones, a faint greenglow appeared on them. While being gradually enveloped by the green glow, afaint and abnormally ancient aura started to emerge within his body.

This aura was like the dragon race of the ancient times.

Green Heaven Materialized Dragon Skill was a skill that allowed a human’s bodyto train to the level that rivaled the true dragon race. This was in additionto the True Dragon Qi that Qing Zhi had left within his body, something thatwas only possessed by the elite dragon race. This allowed Lin Dong’s physicalbody to slowly evolve from inside as he continued to practice the Green HeavenMaterialized Dragon Skill.

It was common knowledge to everyone that no matter how strong and resilient ahuman’s body was, the organs was always the weakest spot. Generally if anopponent were to pierce these organs, the resulting damage would most likely belife threatening. However the Green Heaven Materialized Dragon Skill wasdifferent. It allowed not only the the skin and the muscles to increase inresilience, even his internal organs and blood vessel were graduallystrengthened as he continued training…

This was the most abnormal part of the Green Heaven Materialized Dragon Skin,which was why Lin Dong didn’t hesitate in learning it. He knew that if he wasable to master it, his physical body will definitely rival that of a truedragon!

Since he possessed such a resilient body, wanting to absorb the violentNirvana Golden Qi was not as difficult as expected for Lin Dong.

CHI CHI!

Once again, the golden mist lunged towards those organs covered by the greenglow. However this time, the severe pain that it caused was greatly reduced.The mist slowly entered his flesh and bones. At that moment Lin Dong couldfaintly feel a violent energy, akin a raging dragon, starting to grow withinhis body…

While the Nirvana Golden Qi was tempering his flesh and bones, a large amountof them was also sucked away by Lin Dong’s Yuan Power. As those Yuan Powerflowed within his meridians, they started to turn increasingly vigorous.

As he examined the changes that are happening to his body, a hint of a smileappeared on Lin Dong’s face. Nirvana Golden Qi was an absolutely wonderfulsupplement for Nirvana Stage experts. Not only would it strengthen the body, itcould increase the vigour of one’s Yuan Power. The rate of improvement was manytimes faster than ordinary training.

“This place is not bad, all this Nirvana Golden Qi should not be wasted…”

Lin Dong opened his eyes faintly and looked at the ten metre radius of goldenlight within the Pill River’s depths. Within this light radius were thick andcopious amounts of Nirvana Golden Qi. This time, Lin Dong’s expression when helooked at them, was filled with greed.

With the Green Heaven Materialized Dragon Skill, Lin Dong was able todisregard that enormous pressure. Furthermore, it allowed him to easily endurethe pain that would torture a normal Nirvana stage expert to death whenabsorbing the Nirvana Golden Qi. Although the pain was still present, it wasnot hard for Lin Dong to endure it.

“However, the pressure is getting heavier and heavier…”

Lin Dong glanced at the dragon scales on his body and noticed their dimminggreen glow. The originally bright green glow was gone. It seems like thepressure here was slowly increasing in intensity.

However now that Lin Dong had a taste of the benefits of the Nirvana GoldenQi, he would naturally not give up that easily .As for the growing pressure, hewanted to find out how much more his physical body could endure.

“Devour it!”

Lin Dong start to create a seal before before a pulsating black hole startedto appear with his palm. The next moment, Devouring Force started to spread outfrom it.

WHISH!

With the appearance of the Devouring Force, the floating clump of golden lightstarted to fluctuate violently. Streams of golden light started to form,flowing with a frightening speed into the black hole in Lin Dong’s palm.

Following the absorption of a large amount of Nirvana Golden Qi, Lin Dong’sface started to glow with a faint gold light. From far, he looked akin to asolemn and dignified buddha.

At this moment, as he continued to devour, Lin Dong’s aura started to slowlyclimb!
