C84 Devour the Inner Core of Winged Tiger
And so, Ye Hongtian sat in the corner of the audience for the whole afternoon, this afternoon's competition was truly boring. Everyone would choose the weakest of the remaining participants to fight. They would all roll over.
Seeing the last few matches, Ye Hong couldn't bear to watch any longer. Helpless, he returned to his resting room. After all, there was an Essence Gathering Array in the resting room, so the effect would always be much better than sitting in the audience seats to cultivate.
Returning to the resting room, Ye Hong Tian sat cross-legged on the bed. In front of him was an irregular golden ball. This ball was the Winged Tiger Core that Ye Hong Tian had never dared to absorb.
When he was at the Boundless Auction House, he had heard from Yun Qian that this was the inner core of a Rank 9 spirit beast, the Winged Tiger. If a Rank 9 spirit beast was converted into a martial artist's cultivation, then it would be at the ninth level of Qi Refining.
And the inner core was the essence of a spirit beast's entire body. It contained all of the cultivation energy of a Rank Nine Winged Tiger. Ye Hongtian was worried that this massive energy would cause his body to explode.
Now, Ye Hongtian had taken out the Winged Tiger's core in order to swallow it. He had 10,000 tree seeds to filter out the energy within the core. He didn't need to find a specialized master to extract the energy within the core like an ordinary martial artist did when they swallowed the core. Not only did that require a price, but the energy extracted from the inner core would also be extremely rare.
After meditating for a moment, Ye Hongtian slowly opened his eyes. He picked up the core and threw it into his mouth. As soon as the core entered his mouth, it was pulled by the 10,000 Dao Tree seeds, instantly turning into a massive amount of energy that flowed towards the 10,000 Dao Tree seeds.
The Myriad Path Tree Seed cracked open in the middle. It looked like a mouth. In an instant, he absorbed the huge amount of energy. Then, he spat out an extremely pure energy that flowed into Ye Hongtian's body.
Although it had been filtered by the ten thousand Dao Tree seeds and the energy was reduced by a third, this energy was still incomparably massive.
Ye Hong Tian's face was solemn. He used all of his strength to absorb this energy. However, there were still quite a number of energy that Ye Hong Tian did not manage to absorb in time. They started to run around inside Ye Hong Tian's body, destroying Ye Hong Tian's body.
Ye Hongtian's face turned red. Blood was seeping out of his pores. Soon, all the pores on his body were bleeding. He looked miserable.
Ye Hongtian kept squeezing and refining the huge energy. He tried his best not to let the energy leak out and turn it into his own energy.
Right now, Ye Hongtian only felt pain all over his body, but he was also happy because he felt that his cultivation base had rapidly increased, and he quickly broke through to the Fourth Stage of Qi Refining.
After the time for an incense stick to burn, Ye Hong Tian, who was sitting on the bed, took a deep breath. A purple light flashed on his body, and his clothes that were dyed red with blood were burned clean.
He suddenly opened his eyes, and a bolt of lightning struck out from his eyes, creating a small pit on the floor of the lounge. He took out a new set of clothes from his Cosmic Bag and put them on. He slowly stood up and walked to the center of the lounge. He clenched his fist and smiled with satisfaction.
After absorbing the inner core of the Winged Tiger, Ye Hong Tian's cultivation had completely stabilized at the peak of the Fourth Stage of Qi Refining. Now, his combat strength was completely comparable to a martial artist at the Ninth Stage of Qi Refining. It would not be a problem for him to use the blood essence of the Ancient Phoenix to fight a half-step Void Origin martial artist.
With a thought from Ye Hongtian's heart, the phoenix wings on his back spread open. This time, there were not only phoenix wings on Ye Hongtian's back, but also a pair of golden wings. These golden wings were the wings of the Winged Tiger that he had obtained after absorbing the inner core of the Winged Tiger.
Ye Hong Tian touched the golden wings and immediately put them away. Looking at the time, he found that it was a pair of golden wings. It wasn't even morning yet... Ye Hongtian didn't have to worry about not being able to absorb the purple qi in time. He started to fight in the lounge. He had just broken through and was unable to control his power. This was to familiarize himself with his current power.
When the sun was about to rise, Zi Ming came out of Ye Hongtian's body on time, waiting to cut off the purple qi in the air. Ye Hongtian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
With a thought, the sky changed in his hand. Ye Hongtian didn't care about Zi Ming and just waved his sword. In an instant, he made eighteen sword attacks at an extremely fast speed. Eighteen strands of purple qi flew towards Ye Hongtian from the east.
Zi Ming reached out his hand and made a grabbing gesture in the air. A small part of the purple qi in the air was missing. Zi Ming, who had swallowed the purple qi, was enjoying it.
However, time always passed very quickly. The sun rose completely in the blink of an eye. Ye Hongtian couldn't attract the purple qi anymore. Zi Ming saw that there was no purple qi to absorb and could only drill back into Ye Hongtian's body to sleep.
Since the sun had risen, it meant that the martial ceremony was about to start again. Today was the third day of the martial ceremony. There were only sixteen participants left. All of them were at least at the eighth level of Qi Refinement.
Ye Hong Tian strode towards the arena. He could choose to enter the arena from the resting room or from the audience seats. This was his special privilege, so what he needed to do was to be different from the others.
When he arrived at the audience seats, it was still that small corner. The view in this corner was not good, and there were many inconveniences in watching the competition in the arena. Usually, no one would sit here, so Ye Hong Tian chose this place.
However, this time, because of Ye Hong Tian, the corner became lively. Not long after Ye Hong Tian arrived, the corner seats were filled. Ye Hong Tian could not help but cover his forehead with his hand, feeling a headache.
Most of the people here were elders of different forces. They all wanted to pull Ye Hong Tian into their own forces. The weakest ones were all at the Void Origin Stage, so Ye Hongtian could only sit there. After sitting for a while, the elders started to get restless.
"Well, little brother Ye, our Thunder Sect has a formal thunder cultivation method. Are you interested in learning it?"
"Old man Lei, you actually made the first move. You're really shameless. Little brother Ye, don't mind that lightning attribute cultivation method. Come to our Qin Sect to play. Our Qin Sect doesn't have much except female disciples. Little brother Ye, you can choose whatever you want."
"Little brother Ye, don't listen to them. If you want to talk about female disciples, our Joyful Union Sect also has quite a few. There are both male and female disciples coming to our Joyful Union Sect. I guarantee that they will satisfy all of your needs."
... ""2
The elders of the various sects all began to rope in Ye Hongtian. There were all kinds of things that they could say. Hearing this, Ye Hongtian's face darkened.
Ye Hongtian didn't know what to say at first. He felt annoyed after listening to these elders nagging for a long time. Then his eyes lit up. He cupped his fists and said to the elders, "I have benefited from the Ye Clan when I was a kid. I am indebted to the Ye Clan for giving me a new life. I am not going to join any other forces for the time being. "
As soon as Ye Hongtian said this, the elders immediately shut their mouths. The Ye Family was one of the seven big families. Even if they did not have enough resources, the Blackheaven Sect was still better than them. They did not dare to poach the Ye Family.
