Chapter 436

As he stood up, it was as if a great mountain had risen from the ground, the tyrannical aura shaking the specially built house, emitting a rumbling sound.

Outside, Sun Tao, Zhang Yong, and others looked over in shock, fearing that Xu Yang would dismantle the house.

"What technique is he cultivating to have such a commotion?" Zhang Yong was greatly shocked.

In Xu Yang's room, it was as if a fierce beast had appeared, as if it were about to break out of its cage.

When they cultivated martial arts, they generally went to the outer sect to practice; just cultivating Gang Qi, it was basically impossible to have such a commotion.

Sun Tao's face was full of envy, and he said: "Perhaps it is the divine technique he was rewarded with for third place in the competition; he went to the Scripture Depository a few days ago."

He did not think that Xu Yang had already reached Minor Success of Marrow Cleansing, but thought that Xu Yang had obtained some divine technique in the Scripture Depository.

"Crack!"

Inside the room, as Xu Yang stood up, the black shell on his body cracked, accompanied by a layer of shed old skin, revealing crystalline skin, with luster faintly flowing.

"Bang!"

He gently shook his body, and all the black shells fell off, revealing a strong, powerful, and well-defined body.

【Bear Scripture of Mountain-Bearing Marrow Cleansing Chapter · Minor Success (5/6000)】

【Remaining Lifespan: 100】

"Is this Minor Success of Marrow Cleansing?"

His remaining lifespan had directly reached one hundred years, which meant that from now on, even if his cultivation base did not improve and he no longer had the panel, he could still live for one hundred years.

He felt his whole body filled with a kind of vitality, his life essence as if completely sublimated, no longer a mortal body; between his gestures, the tyrannical power dormant between his flesh and blood surged out.

He felt that if he were to fight Xiao Hua again, he wouldn't need the Diamond Body Technique, nor would he need martial intent; he could kill him directly with a few punches.

Within his body, strands of new blood, condensed like mercury and heavy, seeped into his limbs and bones, carrying vigorous vitality, nourishing and strengthening his body; the Jin Gang Qi and flesh and blood merged, the vigorous blood and Qi as if about to materialize and rush out of his body.

His internal organs were dustless and flawless, his muscles and bones crystalline and perfect, like a work of art; regardless of strength or stamina, he had seen significant improvement.

"Minor Success of Marrow Cleansing is indeed a watershed; only after rebirth can it be considered true marrow cleansing. The old blood is completely replaced by new blood, and even if one doesn't cultivate, the physique is constantly becoming stronger."

Xu Yang carefully checked his body, confirming that the breakthrough had not left any flaws, took out the last Profound Origin Qi-Transforming Pill and the fifty-year-old ginseng, and swallowed them to continue consolidating his cultivation base.

With energy support, his body began to create new blood.

Three days later, he had completely mastered his surging power; under the effect of the Breath-Restraining Technique, his crystalline skin became normal, and his massive power was hidden within his flesh and blood; he had once again become that harmless-looking person.

No one knew that just after the competition ended, he had already reached Minor Success of Marrow Cleansing.

"Junior Brother Xu, you have finally come out of seclusion!" Zhang Yong stood up and walked over: "Having been in seclusion for so long, I'm afraid your strength has greatly increased."

Xu Yang shook his head: "It's not that easy for strength to greatly increase; you don't know how difficult it is to cultivate in the Marrow Cleansing Realm. Without resources, it's basically impossible to make progress; I was just contemplating a martial art."

Sun Tao's mouth couldn't help but twitch; marrow cleansing is difficult, yet you broke through a year ago—you really lie through your teeth.

"Xu Yang, come over for a chat!" Zhang Yong shouted.

Sun Tao nodded: "It's good that you've come out of seclusion; we have something to discuss with you."

Xu Yang said: "I haven't eaten for a few days, so I'll go eat something first; how about we talk while we eat?"

The two nodded, and the three of them walked out of the courtyard together, soon arriving at a restaurant to order food and wine.

"Junior Brother Xu, which peak do you intend to join?" Sun Tao said.

Only then did Xu Yang understand that what the two wanted to discuss with him was the matter of joining the inner sect.

Now that there was only half a month left before they completed their three years, it was indeed time to consider which peak to join.

"My first choice is Medicine King Peak; if that doesn't work, then I will join Departing Fire Peak," Xu Yang said.

He had already considered this question.

The strongest in the Purple Sun Sect is naturally Heavenly Pivot Peak, where the Sect Master's lineage resides; the Purple Sun True Scripture, the heritage technique of Heavenly Pivot Peak, is also the strongest among the four peaks.

However, he had inquired about it, and the Purple Sun True Scripture is not something anyone can cultivate; only the Sect Master and the Sect Master's first disciple—that is, the future Sect Master—can cultivate it. As for the others, they do not cultivate the Purple Sun True Scripture.

So if he wanted to cultivate the Purple Sun True Scripture, he would have to first take down the current first disciple of the Sect Master; otherwise, even if he could join the Sect Master's lineage, he would have no share in cultivating the Purple Sun True Scripture.

Of course, Heavenly Pivot Peak has other heritages that are equally tyrannical, but compared to the other peaks, there is no advantage.

Because besides the Purple Sun True Scripture, the other three peaks can also learn the other heritages of Heavenly Pivot Peak, it's just that the cost would be a bit higher.

Furthermore, as the Sect Master's lineage, Heavenly Pivot Peak's main business is managing the sect's industries and doing business; it's more like political management and economics.

The other three peaks are technical experts, dedicated to studying alchemy and blacksmithing, which is more suitable for someone like him who likes to keep a low profile.

Among the three peaks, the first thing he wants to learn is alchemy, so he can be self-sufficient in resources and also make money; if he cannot join Medicine King Peak, he would choose Departing Fire Peak, which does blacksmithing.

As for the final Beast King Peak, he would only consider it if neither Medicine King Peak nor Departing Fire Peak would accept him.

Sun Tao frowned slightly: "You still want to learn alchemy? You have no foundation at all; don't talk about the Peak Master, I'm afraid even the elders might not be willing to take you.

And I heard that even if you learn alchemy, the sect won't provide for you; you have to rely on yourself to spend money to buy medicinal herbs for practice."

Xu Yang laughed: "Senior Brother, even if I can't learn the method of alchemy, Medicine King Peak is full of alchemists; getting to know a few, buying pills will also be cheaper."

Sun Tao was stunned: "That makes sense, but unfortunately, I don't have the qualifications to join Medicine King Peak."

He only made it into the top thirty in the competition; don't talk about Medicine King Peak, even for the worst Beast King Peak, there might not be an elder willing to take him.

You have to know that when Li Qiang completed his three years, he made it into the top twenty, but he still had to pull strings and spend money before Elder Bai Hu of Beast King Peak was willing to take him as a disciple.

Even so, he was given an assessment task that was as difficult as ascending to heaven; he hadn't completed the task for over half a year, and he died at his hands before he could even join the inner sect.

"Zhang Yong and I intend to join Beast King Peak; we originally planned to invite you to join us so we could look out for each other in the future," he said somewhat awkwardly.

Xu Yang could understand this point; it's not that you can sit back and relax once you enter the inner sect. Inner sect disciples also have the dangers of inner sect disciples; having more people to join forces with makes it easier to solve problems.

However, Beast King Peak was only his last choice; he couldn't run to Beast King Peak just for the sake of loyalty.

And with Zhang Yong and Sun Tao's talent, Beast King Peak might not even want them, let alone the other peaks.

Zhang Yong is a bit better; it's possible if he spends money to pull strings. As for Sun Tao, I'm afraid he couldn't even enter Beast King Peak if he spent money; even if he were willing to go to Beast King Peak with Sun Tao, Sun Tao might not be able to enter Beast King Peak.

It's just that cruel; otherwise, Lin Cheng wouldn't have struggled in the Purple Sun Sect for over ten years before running back to Qingyuan County to be a martial arts school master.

"After I go to Qingyang City for alchemy and return, I will also have to consider who to take as a master," Xu Yang thought to himself.

During the meal, Sun Tao and Zhang Yong both ate without any taste.

Now that they could join the inner sect, they couldn't be happy.

Xu Yang was not in a hurry to cultivate the Blood Prison Heart Blade Scripture, although with Minor Success of Marrow Cleansing, his mind was almost ready to cultivate the Blood Prison Heart Blade Scripture.

But after all, he had just broken through, so he would wait for his mind to be nourished for a period of time before talking about it; now, all aspects of his body were in a stage of being rapidly nourished by new blood.
