With Ye Tian defeating Li Han, the final match of this Martial Arts Selection Tournament has been confirmed, with the genius Ye Tian set to face the formidable Xu Ao.
Although this outcome was anticipated by everyone, the journey to get here was fraught with twists and turns. No one expected Li Han's sudden emergence, and after witnessing the seven Heavenly Origin Walls, few maintained any confidence in Ye Tian.
However, a genius is still a genius; with his swift Nine Seals and decisive counterattack, Ye Tian's extraordinary abilities once again made his name resonate throughout Spirit Martial Town. In casual conversations and on the streets, nearly everyone was discussing this eye-catching battle.
Cold Family, Cold Bo Yuan Mansion.
The sunlight cast a dim glow on the red carpet in the hall. In contrast to the excitement outside regarding Ye Tian, the atmosphere here was considerably tense.
On a zitan armchair sat a figure deep in thought, his expression grave as if he were contemplating a particularly troubling matter.
After a moment, he opened his eyes and slowly addressed Ye Tian, who was seated below him: "Xiao Tian, tomorrow you will face Xu Ao. Given your current strength, I fear..."
"Uncle Leng need not worry; I have my own way to win," Ye Tian replied lightly with a smile, seemingly confident about the upcoming match.
Cold Boyuan furrowed his brow and sighed. "Xiao Tian, although you are exceptionally gifted and have mastered the Bagua Seal Palm to an impressive level in such a short time, Xu Ao's strength is evident. I truly cannot see how you can compete with him."
Cold Boyuan paused before continuing, "He is already at the Five-Stage Warrior Definition, and with the Yellow Rank Eight-Grade Martial Arts Divine Eagle Style, this disparity in strength makes it hard for me to feel at ease."
"Uncle Leng, I am now at the late stage of Second-Stage Warrior. If I can break through to Fourth-Stage Warrior tonight, I believe I will still have the ability to fight him," Ye Tian said calmly, treating the prospect of advancing two stages overnight as if it were trivial.
A flicker of surprise crossed Cold Boyuan's face. After pondering for a moment, he took out a small book from his pocket: "To break through from Second-Stage Warrior to Fourth-Stage Warrior overnight would sound ridiculous coming from anyone else, but coming from you is different. While I find it hard to believe, I still hope you can surprise me."
With that, Cold Boyuan handed the book to Ye Tian and instructed him: "This is the cultivation method for Bagua Thunder Palm, which belongs to Yellow Rank Nine Martial Arts. Since you have already mastered Bagua Seal Palm thoroughly, I believe Thunder Palm should not be difficult for you. However, to successfully activate Thunder Palm requires at least Fourth-Stage Warrior strength!"
At this point, Cold Boyuan paused again and looked at Ye Tian with significant intent: "If you truly break through to Fourth-Stage Warrior status, then it should assist you greatly in your duel with Xu Ao."
Ye Tian reached out to take it and examined it closely.
It was a black-covered booklet; although it was made of ordinary paper, neither its corners nor its condition showed any signs of wear. It seemed that it had been rarely opened, which explained its pristine condition.
“Xiao Tian, among the entire Cold Family, regardless of age, you are the first one capable of practicing the Bagua Thunder Palm, aside from me,” Cold Boyuan gently patted Ye Tian's shoulder. “So, in tomorrow's competition, I hope to see that thunderous strike. You must not let me down!”
“Thank you, Uncle Leng.” Ye Tian looked at Cold Boyuan, feeling extremely excited.
The Bagua Thunder Palm is second only to the Bagua Thunder Seal in the martial arts of the Cold Family. It is Yellow Rank Nine and can be considered one of the higher-level martial arts in Spirit Martial Town.
“Alright, time is tight; we can't waste a moment. You should hurry back to practice!”
It was already evening, and there was only one night left before tomorrow's competition. To break through two stages and master the Bagua Thunder Palm in such a short time was indeed a race against time.
“Okay, I’m leaving now, Uncle Leng.” Ye Tian bid farewell and turned to walk out the door.
“Sigh...” Cold Boyuan watched Ye Tian leave and sighed deeply, thinking to himself, “I hope you can create another miracle...”
...
The Bagua Thunder Palm is a Yellow Rank Nine martial art based on the Bagua Seal Palm; however, it requires more than ten additional finger techniques. These techniques are complex, and for an ordinary person, even mastering one would be difficult, let alone dozens. Among the Cold Family, even the most gifted Cold Yang could barely manage the Nine Seals. Therefore, aside from Cold Boyuan, although there were many Fourth-Stage Warriors in the Cold Family, no one could practice this martial art.
However, for Ye Tian, who had already perfected the Bagua Seal Palm, this was not a challenge at all.
Crack...
A crisp sound echoed as if wax was burning. However, this sound came from Ye Tian's palm.
A faint light appeared in his palm, and a flash of blue light flickered away.
“A Fourth-Stage Warrior should be able to control their elemental energy well enough to form a Thunder Palm...”
The recent flash of blue light was the Bagua Thunder Palm that Ye Tian had activated. Since he was currently at the late stage of a Second-Stage Warrior, his control over elemental energy wasn't sufficient to produce a Thunder Burst in his palm. However, since all finger techniques were the same and only differed in order, activating the Bagua Thunder Palm posed no difficulty for Ye Tian.
At this moment, it was deep into the night; only seven or eight hours remained until tomorrow's finals.
"Xu Ao..."
In the simple little house, Ye Tian slowly uttered these two words.
Having already become a Five-Stage Warrior Definition and possessing the Yellow Rank Eight-Grade Martial Arts Divine Eagle Style, Xu Ao was far stronger than the current Ye Tian.
"At the very least, I need to reach the level of a Fourth-Stage Warrior capable of using the Thunder Palm; only then will I have the means to compete with Xu Ao!"
Thinking of this, a silver-white inner pill shone in Ye Tian's hand. This was the inner pill of a Silver-Maned Leopard. Although the Silver-Maned Leopard was merely a Yellow-Grade Six-Rank Monster, the essence of heaven and earth it had absorbed over many years was condensed in this small inner pill. In terms of medicinal power, it was absolutely comparable to an Earth Level One elixir.
The Spirit Beast Inner Pill emitted a pure white light that illuminated the surrounding area, and with the white glow, Ye Tian's still somewhat youthful face revealed an incredibly determined expression.
"Spirit Beast Inner Pill, it's finally your time to shine."
Without further hesitation, Ye Tian tilted his head back and swallowed it. Then he closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, preparing to face the various surprises and torments brought by the powerful medicinal effects.
A warm current flowed down his throat and eventually settled in his abdomen, creating a slight feeling of fullness, but nothing unusual happened beyond that.
"Could it be that this item is like the Danyang Grass, belonging to those with gentle medicinal properties?"
Ye Tian muttered in his heart. If that were true, it would be great; after all, the feeling when stimulated by strong medicinal power was akin to suffering a fate worse than death.
About the time it takes to burn an incense stick passed, and the medicinal power of the Spirit Beast Inner Pill began to circulate through his body's meridians, eventually spreading throughout his body.
As usual, the initial warm current gradually became scorching hot, starting to sear every inch of Ye Tian's flesh.
"Ugh..."
This sensation made Ye Tian grit his teeth involuntarily, and beads of sweat began to form on his forehead.
The temperature continued to rise, and sweat once again soaked his clothes. Although Ye Tian had his eyes closed and was unaware, if outsiders were to look at him now, they would see wisps of white smoke rising from his head, a sight that would be alarming.
As the temperature rose, Ye Tian's muscles and bones began to strengthen at an astonishing rate.
"This Spirit Beast Inner Pill is indeed miraculous!"
Ye Tian thought excitedly, but at that moment, an unusual pain suddenly surged throughout his body.
"Is it coming again..."
Ye Tian gritted his teeth in resignation, enduring the onset of pain, which signified that the powerful effects of the Spirit Beast Inner Pill were about to subject his body to excruciating torment.
The pain came abruptly, intensifying suddenly and becoming increasingly severe, until it felt as if he were being pierced by numerous sharp blades—truly unbearable.
"Ha! Ha! Ha..."
Heavy gasps echoed in the quiet room. At this moment, Ye Tian was drawing in cold breaths, his face and lips displaying a pale hue as if he had lost too much blood. His tightly clenched fists had dug his nails deep into his palms due to the strain.
The effects of the pill continued unabated, with no indication of when they would cease.
Under the bright moon and countless stars, Ye Tian had endured such torment for two hours without realizing it. Yet the potent effects still had not fully dissipated.
"Such power might allow me to directly break through to Five-Stage Warrior!"
A glimmer of hope flickered in Ye Tian's mind. If he could reach the definition of Five-Stage Warrior, defeating Xu Ao would be a foregone conclusion.
After all, if he possessed Jujutsu, Bagua Xuan Yuan Shield, Vortex Profound Skill, along with Nine Seal Eight Trigrams Seal and the newly learned Bagua Thunder Palm while being on par with Xu Ao, then if he still couldn't handle Xu Ao, he would have no face left to continue on the path of martial arts.
"Is it over?"
Having been lost in thought earlier, he didn't even notice when the pain had nearly subsided. Now that Ye Tian regained his senses, he felt only a sensation stronger than before but no other abnormalities. However, the only disappointing aspect was that he was certain he had not reached the level of Five-Stage Warrior.
Huff!
A punch was thrown, and the Sound of Breaking Air erupted, a result of explosive power. Moreover, the Elemental Force Cyclone carried within this punch was significantly denser and more intense than before.
"Is this the power of a Fourth-Stage Warrior?"
Pure strength had little use for Ye Tian, so he prepared to verify it through martial arts.
With a thought, a clear sound echoed as a Bagua Pattern appeared prominently on his chest. The Bagua Pattern shimmered with golden light, sparkling in the dim room as if it were a tangible object.
Seeing this, Ye Tian became even more excited. He changed his hand gestures, activating the Bagua Thunder Palm.
With a loud clap!
As he struck out, blue electric light suddenly flared up, crackling and dancing within his palm, producing a series of explosive sounds.
"I did it!"
Ye Tian exclaimed in excitement. Although he had not reached the Five-Stage Warrior Definition, he believed that with this Yellow Rank Nine Bagua Thunder Palm, his chances against Xu Ao had greatly increased.
