I Can See Your Combat Power

Chapter 692: Chapter Six Hundred and Eighty-Eight: The Mysterious Breakthrough

The Tang Clan’s control over Lanshan City was different from other cities, and the reason why they chose it as their first attack target, aside from fulfilling their strategic layout, was because Aran Mountain was very important to the Tang Clan.

Throughout Longzhou West, only Aran Mountain had the conditions to cultivate a Spirit Field, and with the promised 3 million Spiritual Herbs of Ji Fu in place, the most important thing for the Tang Clan now was to sow these Spiritual Herbs.

So, the physicians of the Medicine Hall and Tang Luo were tasked by the family to stay on Aran Mountain for several months to cultivate the Spirit Field.

In the secluded valley of Aran Mountain’s main peak, tens of thousands of acres of Spirit Field were cultivated. With the irrigation of Spirit Springs and the planting of the Spiritual Herbs, the secluded valley soon became one of the Tang Clan’s most important forbidden areas.

Tang Luo planted the vast majority of the 98 million Spiritual Herbs in his possession into the Spirit Field, leaving only a small portion for the engraving of the Fourth Tier Undying Battle Body.

The memories of the Underground Palace were too painful, every advancement of the Undying Battle Body was fresh in Tang Luo’s memory. Only God knows how much pain he would have to endure when he opens his next Divine Storage, but the preparation definitely wouldn’t be in vain.

The Longxi New Alliance now dominates both banks of Longjiang, seemingly unrivaled, but Tang Luo knew this was all just a mirage. Because at the peak of martial strength, the Tang Clan was significantly lacking.

Though they had now obtained a secret method from the minor Spiritual Realm treasury, many of the Clan’s devotees and elders had begun to research the Spirit Qualification of the body in order to attain the position of Grandmaster, but so far, no one had announced success.

On the contrary, ever since the Xiao Family had been given the secret method of Spirit Qualification, the strongest man in Xiling had been absent from the Alliance for several months. His son, Xiao Zheng, attended the Alliance meetings on his behalf, leading people to speculate whether the strongest man of Xiling had met with some misfortune.

However, the Tang Clan knew very well that Xiao Jinlin, who had received the secret method of Spirit Qualification, was now on an unstoppable march towards the position of Grandmaster. The unparalleled martial artist had an Earth Spirit body qualification and had no barriers in the process of Spirit Qualification. He was now orchestrating his own spiritual power in a step-by-step fusion of limbs, whole body, internal organs, Sea of Consciousness with Spirit and soul. Once he finishes the final step of evolution and forms his own martial Dao true intention, he will achieve the position of Grandmaster.

In contrast, the highest potential former Sect Head of the Martial Hall, Tang Baichuan’s Spirit Qualification, was stuck at the second step, not moving an inch after Spirit Qualification of the limbs, and it was unknown how much longer it would take to break through the bottleneck of the torso. On the Tang Clan side, most of the top figures, including the Great Elder Tang Siyuan, clan head Tang Zu, and elder Tang Hongtao, were also stuck at the second step. It seems that the progress of Xiao Baihe would not be much different from them.

Only when they truly started the Spirit Qualification process did the Martial Ancestors of the Tang Clan realize why there were so few Grandmasters in the world. Many things were not just a matter of cultivation.

It may be because these methods of Spirit Qualification were left by the major sects a thousand years ago, so they appeared rather crude, and the process of achieving a Spirit qualified body was much more difficult than they had imagined.

The Tang Clan’s Martial Ancestors’ too smoothly went through the first step of Spirit Qualification, leading Tang Zhi to make a wrong judgment. He thought that several Grandmasters would come out from the Tang Clan in a few years, so they weren’t much concerned about the rapid growth of the Longxi New Alliance in the short term. He even thought of taking the entire western part of Longzhou along with the military momentum if things went smoothly.

However, due to the bottleneck, Tang Zhi’s ambition had to be put on hold. Therefore, after taking over six major cities on both banks of Lingjiang, the Longxi New Alliance finally slowed down its pace of development. Instead, it started managing its territories and enhancing its power.

Tang Zhi was a very patient man. Compared to the past, when the Tang Clan was content to stay in Xiling, there were now drastic changes. Because of the rise of the Longxi New Alliance, people learned about the Tang Clan’s brave and skilled soldiers in Western Longzhou and the Great Alliance formed entirely of Fierce Realm warriors.

Externally, they were unrivaled in power, and internally, under the superb means of Tang Zhi, the New Alliance’s major families were closely united around the Tang Clan. Although it was a council voting system, no family in the New Alliance could surpass the Tang Clan in terms of influence at the moment. This wasn’t just because of the Tang Clan’s strong military power, but also because Tang Zhi kept sharing benefits with other families. Those families who benefited naturally became Tang Zhi’s supporters. The Clan head of the Tang Clan, who had a deep understanding of this principle, had never disappointed anyone with his actions.

On the 28th day of July in the year 1781 of the Longzhou Calendar, Western Longzhou finally escaped from the impact of the flood and returned to normal life.

The first summer harvest after the calamity arrived, and the people of the West, who had been through a major disaster, cherished this harvest. Even some fighters who usually didn’t care about farming, would go to the edge of the fields to watch the people harvest the crops.

After all, only those who had actually experienced hunger got to know the importance of food. This summer harvest was unprecedented, spreading joy and enthusiasm throughout the West.

In Tang Luo’s temporary residence in Lanshan City, the one seen by the Tang Clan as the future genius was sitting at his desk in a daze.

He had been busy for several months cultivating Spirit Fields and planting Spiritual Herbs, leaving him almost no time for acknowledging the daily growth of his Spiritual Power. He estimated that he would accumulate about 30,000 points of Spiritual Power and thought that it was time to prepare for breaking into the Fierce Realm.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Tang Luo, who had a series of plans to become stronger, intended to also upgrade his Undying Battle Body after breaking into the Fierce Realm. In this way, even if he was only just entering the Fierce Realm, he would have a substantial combat power under the effect of the fourth-tier Undying Battle Body, because most of the joint attacks of Transcendental Realm did not exceed 18,000 points. Even the Tang Clan’s Wind Gale, performed by three peak Transcendental Martial Artists, did not exceed 20,000 points.

Therefore, by raising the Undying Body to the fourth tier, an Undying Battle Body immune to 18,000 points of Spiritual damage would be enough for Tang Luo to ignore the threat of a squad from the Transcendental Realm. This ability is almost the standard for top-tier Martial Ancestors. Thinking about the excitement of being a top-tier Martial Ancestor as soon as he breaks through is somewhat stimulating.

Tang Luo, who was very confident in himself, had a little wild ambition in his heart. Considering his unique body, no matter what kind of body cultivation he practiced, the final effect could reach some extreme stage.

If his soul develops according to this plan, it means his soul power would increase upto limit of the Fierce Realm soul.

Four or five times?

Although he had made up his mind to be a surprise attacker, the heart of a martial artist always aimed to cut the mountains and overturn the continent with a single stroke. If the amplification was really as dramatic as he thought, there wouldn’t seem to be anything wrong with being an overcomer in one shot, right?

Just like the Great Elder Tang Siyuan, Tang Luo stood so proudly in the air, withdrawing his smoking finger, and looked disdainfully at the top-tier Ancestor who was holding a hole in his chest in the distance. This kind of feeling seemed quite wonderful just thinking about it.
