Chapter 0008: Breaking Through the Third Layer

  "Have you broken through to the first stage?" Ye Nan Tian asked in surprise.

  That's not the case, but I've already got one foot in the door now. Yang Aiqian answered while his body flew up at an extremely fast speed, punching down at the Firebird with a fist.

  Crack!

  Without any accident, under the powerful and vast Emperor Fist, that invincible Firebird was crushed in mid-air.

  Ah——

  After the Huo Zui bird was crushed, those dozens of black-clothed men also lost all their vitality and fell to the ground.

  Ye Nan Tian, now it's just you left, accept your death. Yang Ai Qian took advantage of the situation and launched another attack at Ye Nan Tian.

  You underestimate me too much, today I'll let you witness the power of the magic sword. Facing Yang Ai in front of him, Ye Nan Tian now has to take out his trump card.

  "Vast Imperial Fist, destroy everything for me!" Yang Aiyue let out a loud roar, his right fist transformed into light.

  Demonslayer, Heaven's Punishment! Ye Nantian also let out a loud roar, his right hand suddenly materializing a long sword that shone with a cyan glow, the sword tore through the air and slashed downwards.

  Boom!

  A loud and intense collision, a powerful aura overturned the entire small courtyard.

  The people living nearby finally woke up with a start at this loud explosion.

  What's the origin of this sword? In this battle, Yang Ai was left with a three-inch wide wound by the demonic sword's aura.

  "This sword was obtained by our sect master in an ancient ruin, as for its origin, no one knows." Ye Nan Tian replied.

  "This sword is a good one, unfortunately the person wielding it is too mediocre. Today I will not only kill you but also take this sword from you, accept your death." After experiencing the sword's aura, Yang Ai unexpectedly discovered that amidst the aura was a hint of primordial energy, thus he had the intention to seize it.

  Beware of speaking loudly lest your tongue gets cut off! Ye Nantian said as he struck again with a sword that split the air.

  "Go die! —— I reign supreme!" Yang Ai shouted loudly.

  This is one of the nine ultimate moves in the Emperor's Fist, previously Yang Ai only performed the simplest attack with the Emperor's Fist.

  BOOM!

  A powerful fist imbued with an imperial will ignored the demonic sword's aura and heavily landed on Ye Nantian's chest.

  Plop! Ye Nantian was as if struck by lightning, his eyes instantly losing their luster.

  BOOM!

  Right after an explosion, Ye Nan Tian's entire body turned into dust.

  Cough!

  After killing Ye Nan Tian, Yang Ai suddenly felt like she had lost all support and collapsed to the ground.

  It seems that true energy is still insufficient, now displaying the "Dominating the World" move, after one strike, there is simply no power to counterattack, from now on must be careful when using it.

  To kill Ye Nan Tian, Yang Ai Feng overexerted himself in using his ultimate move, resulting in exhaustion.

  Yang Ai is now very sleepy, but he knows that he can't sleep now. After this battle, someone will come here soon, so he needs to leave quickly. To eliminate distractions and quietly operate the Hunyuan divine power inner skill, he now needs to hurry up and recover some energy, only then can he leave this place of right and wrong.

  Nan O'er is an eagle, but he's not just any ordinary eagle. He's a conscious eagle.

  He was originally living inside the Taihang Mountains, but he suddenly discovered a large bird flying over his head (which is the Purple Copper Warship of the Li Huo Sect) while he was sleeping, and then chased after it.

  After much difficulty, he finally arrived at Taihang Town, but there was no sign of him. Due to the long journey, he was a bit hungry, so he lowered his head to look for food and spotted a corpse on the ground.

  Hiss!

  Seeing the food, Nan'ou let out a happy cry and swooped down, grabbing the corpse with both claws before flying back up again.

  The corpse was none other than Yang Aifeng, who had regained his true energy.

  At this time he was fully concentrated on operating the Hunyuan Divine Art, and had completely forgotten about everything in the outside world, unaware that he had become food for an eagle.

  In a flash, Nan Yue'er had flown over the Taihang Mountains, and as he flew, he thought about how to enjoy the food under his paws.

  Suddenly, a huge force came from under his claws and forcibly pried open his double claws.

  [Whoosh——] Food slipped from between its paws.

  Ah——no——! Southern Europe's loud cry.

  Just as he was about to dive down again to grab food, the food in his eyes had disappeared.

  After circling the forest three times in discontent, Nan Yue Er flapped her wings and flew away.

  Ah——where is this? Heavily crashing to the ground, Yang Aifeng finally came to after feeling a massive pain that seemed to disintegrate his entire body.

  "How did I end up here?" he asked himself.

  After recovering some strength, Yang Aiqian struggled to get up and began to observe her surroundings.

  The first thing that caught his eye was the skeleton of an animal, and then he heard the sounds of different creatures coming from the trees, as if welcoming a new companion. These creatures called out to each other nonstop, making Yang Ai's front and back feel a chill run down his spine. A gentle breeze blew by, and he shivered suddenly.

  "What the hell is this place?" This was Yang Ai's only thought at this moment. He had wondered if he was like those in some online novels, fighting with others and suddenly crossing over, but his rationality told him that those were all deceiving.

  After a long time, he finally saw a cave in the middle of a mountain. After walking for so long and with injuries on his body, he decided to take a rest. This cave became his best choice as it was located halfway up the mountain, which seemed relatively safe for sleeping.

  After entering the cave, he found that there were many stone utensils inside the cave, and they had been used by someone. Looking at the spotless appearance of the cave, he guessed that someone must have lived here before.

  Giggle——Suddenly his stomach shamelessly growled.

  No wonder I hadn't eaten all day, and in the evening, I was originally going to go eat something with Nie Feng, but who knew we'd run into another incident with the Lihuo Sect, so it ended up being almost a whole day without food.

  He then began to search for something edible in the cave, and after a while, except for finding many medicine bottles in the innermost house, there was nothing else. He opened a bottle of medicine, poured out a pill, and saw a refreshing fragrance filling the entire room, he hastily put the pill into his mouth.

  As soon as the medicine entered his abdomen, Yang Ai felt the medicine instantly turn into a warm stream that reached his five internal organs and six hollow organs, as well as his four limbs and hundred joints. The wonderful feeling was so comfortable that he let out a cry of joy. Not only did he no longer feel hungry, but all the injuries on his body had also healed, and he felt full of energy.

  After eating and drinking enough, Yang Aiqian yawned and fell asleep on the ground.

  He didn't say a word all night and it wasn't until noon the next day that he came to.

  After waking up, Yang Aiqian suddenly found that there was a layer of dark and dirty things on her body, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable, and she also smelled a particularly bad odor on her body.

  He looked around inside the cave and found a place to take a bath. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that there was indeed a pool of water in the room on the right side of the cave.

  He didn't say another word, took off his clothes and jumped in.

  As soon as he jumped in, Yang Ai felt that the water in the pool was very strange, it seemed to be alive, and it kept drilling into his body. The feeling was very comfortable, just like someone was giving him a massage. Every pore on his body seemed to be sucking in these spring waters, and then they all merged into his body.

  The next day at dawn, Yang Ai suddenly found himself lying in a pit and thought to himself, "It was just a bath, how did the water disappear all of a sudden?"

  He knew that the pool of water was actually dragon spittle, the essence condensed from countless years of Taohang Mountain's ancestral dragon's pulse. For cultivators, it was a rare treasure that could make their practice twice as effective with half the effort. He had absorbed all these years' worth of accumulated dragon spittle, and the effect was self-evident.

  "Huh? My body......" Yang Aiyue suddenly noticed the change in her own body.

  Close your eyes and look inward, observing the changes in your own body.

  "This is... Hunyuan Golden Elixir... Could it be that I've successfully cultivated the third level of Hunyuan Divine Art?" Yang Aiyue muttered excitedly to herself.

  In the Hunyuan Shen Gong, it is recorded that when the Golden Elixir is born, the Original Spirit appears, and one can communicate with yin and yang and distinguish heavenly numbers.

  Hunyuan Golden Elixir is a sign of breaking through the third heavy gate of Hunyuan Shengong.

  So can I summon the Financial God's Secret Book now? After knowing that he had broken through the third layer of Hunyuan Divine Art, Yang Aifeng did the first thing which was to summon the Financial God's Secret Book.

  The Financial God's Secret Book was summoned, and Yang Ai had already received an introduction to the Financial God's Secret Book. It turned out that the Financial God's Secret Book was not just a secret book, but a special system platform. After completing the wealth-creating tasks in the Financial God's Secret Book, one could obtain corresponding financial value points, which could be exchanged for anything on the Financial God Exchange Platform.
