"Boom!"
A loud explosion echoed as a tree thick enough for two people to hug burst apart, crashing to the ground amidst flying debris.
Seeing such power, Cold Frost cheered and ran forward, her eyes sparkling as she said to Ye Tian, "Brother Ye Tian, you're amazing!"
At this moment, Ye Tian nodded in satisfaction, feeling a bit more confident about tomorrow's qualification selection.
Not long ago, Cold Boyuan and Cold Wu nearly got into a fight over the qualification selection proposed by Cold Wu for the Cold Family. Cold Wu was imposing, and Cold Boyuan was equally confrontational. If it weren't for Cold Bo Stone intervening at a critical moment, internal strife within the Cold Family might have erupted prematurely.
With Cold Boyuan storming off in anger and Cold Bo Stone mediating, the date for the Cold Family's qualification selection was set for ten days later.
Now, it was already the ninth day.
"With my current strength against Leng Yong, my chances of winning aren't very high..." Ye Tian thought to himself. Although he had successfully made a breakthrough during these nine days, facing a Nine-Dan Warrior with his Seven-Dan Warrior status still posed a significant gap of nearly three levels.
"Brother Ye Tian, do you have something on your mind?" Cold Frost asked with concern as she noticed Ye Tian lost in thought.
"Oh, it's nothing," Ye Tian replied dismissively.
"You're lying," Cold Frost pouted and scolded him.
In fact, based on Ye Tian's combat experience, he was confident that he could defeat Leng Yong in a fight. However, tomorrow's event was a competition that emphasized restraint; many fierce but practical techniques would be unusable, which greatly limited Ye Tian's abilities.
"I can't let this matter regarding Xiaoshuang affect me; I must win!"
Thinking of this, Ye Tian turned to look at Cold Frost, only to see her staring at him with wide, watery eyes, watching him as he fell into thought again without blinking.
Ye Tian wanted to joke around, so he feigned despair and said, "Xiaoshuang, to be honest, I really can't win against Leng Yong..."
"Oh? What should I do then? I don't want to marry him," Cold Frost replied with complete confidence in Ye Tian, smiling as she spoke.
"I really can't win against him!" Ye Tian exaggerated even more.
"Then what should we do..." Cold Frost's expression turned worried, her acting skills were definitely not lacking.
"Sigh... how about..." Ye Tian looked at Cold Frost, mischief sparkling in his eyes as he elongated his voice.
"Let's elope!" they said in unison, as if they had planned it together.
After saying that, the two exchanged glances and burst into uncontrollable laughter.
...
Time passed quickly, and before long it was afternoon.
In the quiet little room, a young figure sat cross-legged, his eyes fixed on the light green Dan Pill in his hand that resembled a jade bead, deep in thought.
"I intended to save this for the Martial Arts Selection Tournament, but it seems I have to use it early. Xiaoshuang, don't worry; I will definitely win."
With that thought, Ye Tian raised his arm and swallowed the Dan Pill down his throat.
The pure medicinal power instantly spread throughout his body. However, due to Ye Tian's increased cultivation level, he did not experience the excruciating torment from last time. Instead, a warm and extremely pleasant sensation surged through his limbs and bones.
The warm current slowly flowed through Ye Tian's body, causing a tingling sensation wherever it passed, and his muscles were strengthening and hardening at a perceptible speed. After all, the medicinal power of the Dan Pill condensed from the Yellow Rank Five Beneficial Herb through the Heavenly Fire Heart Furnace was extraordinary, at least for Ye Tian, a Seven-Dan Warrior.
The Warrior Threshold; each advancement in rank primarily focuses on strength, bringing noticeable changes to the body.
At this moment, Ye Tian was experiencing this transformation, feeling his muscles tighten, harden, and become increasingly explosive under the stimulation of the medicinal power. A line appeared in his mind, continuously extending longer at a steady pace toward its destination, which was called Eight-Dan Martial Artist!
"As long as I can reach Eight-Dan Martial Artist, defeating Leng Yong shouldn't be too difficult," Ye Tian thought to himself, yet there was no trace of joy on his face.
What he sought was certainty in victory, not just the possibility of winning.
"The late stage of Nine-Dan Warrior; I will soon step into the realm of Warrior Definition. He must be able to occasionally vibrate his elemental force by now."
"No! I must achieve one hundred percent certainty!"
Taking a deep breath, Ye Tian began to sense the surrounding Elemental Force Cyclone.
This was an idea that had just flashed through his mind: using the medicinal power of the herb in conjunction with circulating elemental force within his body for training might yield unexpected results.
Buzzing...
Soon, the Elemental Force Cyclone began to resonate with Ye Tian's body, vibrating subtly and steadily. The faint elemental force started to stimulate his skin and gradually seeped in, passing through his skin and muscles before finally merging into his bone marrow...
Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner. At this moment, Ye Tian closed his eyes and calmly enjoyed the process of becoming stronger.
However, at that moment, a subtle change suddenly occurred in Ye Tian's body...
The influx of elemental force and the dispersion of medicinal power gradually came into contact with each other. Yet instead of merging, they produced a crackling sound upon contact and then repelled each other.
Although both of these entities are invisible to the naked eye, Ye Tian can clearly feel the force generated from their collision. This force surges and struggles within his body, rampaging with an extremely fierce momentum.
"This is bad!"
Ye Tian exclaimed in his heart, beginning to feel despair.
The sound of 'crackling' grew increasingly dense; it was inaudible to the ears but echoed in Ye Tian's mind like exploding beans, threatening to shatter his nerves.
At this moment, Ye Tian could no longer remain still. He pressed his hands tightly against his head, his expression turning extremely pained. The internal force became more and more violent, causing his muscles and bones to ache as if they were breaking, a pain that was several times stronger than before.
"Ah!!"
Ye Tian screamed hoarsely, the dual assault on his body and mind continuously destroying his psychological defenses. If this feeling did not subside within half an hour, he feared he would die from this torment.
At this time, a terrifying thought slowly emerged in his mind...
His fingers moved rapidly, clearly in the process of activating the Bagua Seal Palm. He could no longer endure; this torment exceeded the limits of human endurance.
His trembling fingers touched his own head; this was the first seal!
Then came the second seal, third seal, fourth seal...
"Ha..."
Ye Tian let out a sigh of relief. At this moment, as long as he activated the Break Seal Technique, he would be able to free himself from the endless torment.
Because of the torment from the inhuman, his bloodless lips slightly parted, and the Break Seal Technique was just a moment away.
At that moment, a beautiful and gentle figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
“Xiaoshuang...”
Ye Tian abruptly awakened, realizing that he was just a breath away from ending his own life.
“If I die, Xiaoshuang will fall into Leng Yong's hands. I cannot let that happen!”
This thought took root in his heart and quickly grew stronger. In an effort to strengthen his resolve, even his teeth began to clatter from the strain.
“Just hold on a little longer, just hold on a little longer...”
Ye Tian kept repeating these words in his mind. For Xiaoshuang, he had to endure.
Time slowly passed, and sweat had soaked through his clothes.
Suddenly, it seemed that the effects of the Vitality Pills were beginning to wane, and the resonance of his energy gradually returned to a more stable frequency.
“It seems the medicine is almost fully absorbed...”
A sense of survival after disaster rose within Ye Tian. Since he had started resonating with his energy long after taking the Dan Pill, the conflicting effects should not last too long.
“Just hold on a little longer!”
Although the medicinal effects were starting to fade, the cold pain remained at an unbearable level. However, seeing hope made Ye Tian's resolve even stronger.
About the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, the medicinal effects had completely dissipated, and the surrounding Elemental Force Cyclone finally returned to its normal vibration frequency.
After a moment, Ye Tian eased away from the pain brought on by the immense torment, then slowly sat up, guiding the resonance of his elemental energy for a final surge.
Expand, expand, expand!
His muscles gradually became visibly harder at an astonishing rate, generating a strength that was more than double what it had been before.
"Finally succeeded!"
Ye Tian excitedly opened his eyes, a bright light bursting forth like that of an eagle's gaze.
With a whoosh, the Sound of Breaking Air echoed as he felt the power and speed perfectly amplified in his fully unleashed punch.
"Late Stage Eight-Dan Martial Artist! Leng Yong, you are bound to lose!"
Indeed, facing a Late Stage Eight-Dan Martial Artist like Ye Tian, who could skillfully execute the Nine Seals and possessed Jujutsu, Leng Yong was undoubtedly destined for defeat.
