When he left the Tangmen's headquarters, Qin Lang took away the former leader of the Tangmen, Tang Yangyuan, and the Art Faction's Taoist Master Five Clouds. He also drove the Art Faction's people into the territory of the Ten Halls of Hell and made Liu Zongping and Han Laiwang train them ruthlessly, turning them into fiendish evil spirits of the Underworld.
Qin Lang was not worried that the "surrendered generals" of the Art Faction would betray him, because the Ten Halls of Hell's methods of dealing with traitors were enough to let the Art Faction know what real torture was. What's more, Qin Lang had already told the "surrendered generals" that if any of them betrayed the Poisons, they would be punished by "implicating" them, so that this group of people would have no choice but to guard against each other and monitor each other. People were selfish, so they would definitely do their best to keep an eye on the people around them.
A few days later, Qin Lang returned to Anrong City, as if nothing had happened. There were no rumors in the Jianghu, but there was some news that said that Qin Lang had suffered a loss in the conflict with the Tangmen.
Qin Lang returned to the underground base in Anrong City in a very low-key manner and began to refine the Martial Soul he had obtained from Tang Shengyin.
Now, Qin Lang had opened up 72 acupoints in his body, excluding the Dantian, and turned these acupoints into small Dantians. As a result, Qin Lang's strength had improved by leaps and bounds, but Qin Lang's realm had not improved. At the Martial Mystic Realm, the improvement of each realm required the accumulation of time and personal understanding, and the combination of many factors to smoothly break through the realm. The reason why Qin Lang's Spiritual Energy realm had risen so quickly was because he had inherited Yin Wu Hua's inheritance, so there was no so-called bottleneck in his Spiritual Energy cultivation. And in terms of martial arts realm, Qin Lang had relied on his own comprehension and the abnormal Fish Dragon Spell to quickly rise to the Spirit Focus realm, forming a Martial Spirit Seed. But if he wanted to reach Heaven and Earth, he still needed a certain amount of time to consolidate.
Tang Shengyin was already considered a rare genius in Tangmen, but it took her several decades of cultivation to reach the Martial Soul Realm. In order to perfect her Martial Soul, she spent another several decades. However, after reaching the Martial Profound Realm, there was basically no shortcut to the cultivation of martial arts. She needed time to accumulate.
Of course, it was not that there were no shortcuts in martial arts cultivation. For example, cultivation techniques such as Wisdom Imbuement were a shortcut, but who would be willing to pass on their lifelong cultivation to others? Therefore, even if this kind of method existed, there were very few people who could benefit from it. Apart from the "great gift" of enlightenment, the only other way was to forcefully plunder the cultivation of others by force. However, only a small number of people could forcefully plunder the fruits of others' labor. Why? Naturally, the benefits of plundering martial artists who were of a lower realm than oneself were extremely limited. Therefore, to plunder the fruits of others' labor, one had to challenge those martial artists of a higher realm. However, how could it be so easy to suppress and plunder martial artists of a higher realm? There was a saying that went, "A higher realm is infinitely higher." This meant that when a martial artist of a higher realm had an absolute advantage in front of an Earth Realm martial artist, a martial artist of a lower realm wanting to kill a martial artist of a higher realm was simply looking for death. It was like sending food to the opponent!
The reason why Qin Lang was able to become an anomaly among the many cultivators, being able to plunder the cultivation results of cultivators with higher cultivation realms, was because he had a solid foundation. Furthermore, he had created the Fish Dragon Mantra that combined the Martial Way and the Cultivation Technique. Many fortuitous encounters had given him the strength to challenge those of a higher cultivation realm, and he had even succeeded in plundering Tang Shengyin's martial soul.
Tang Shengyin's Martial Soul was the crystallization of her mental strength for decades, and it was also the essence of her martial arts cultivation. Now, this Martial Soul had been suppressed in Qin Lang's spiritual world. However, this Martial Soul was not so easy to subdue because Tang Shengyin's Martial Soul already had the ability to materialize her mental strength. Therefore, once he was attacked by this Martial Soul, not only would Qin Lang's Divine Soul be damaged, but his physical body would also be damaged.
Knowing that this Martial Soul would not be easy to deal with, Qin Lang only began to refine it after returning to Anrong City. If Qin Lang were to rashly refine this martial soul in the Tang Sect's headquarters, and something went wrong, such as Tang Shengyin sensing that her martial soul hadn't completely disappeared, it would most likely cause a huge commotion.
Although Qin Lang's Martial Soul Seed had already been formed, it was still beyond his power to use his Martial Soul Seed to devour this peak Martial Soul. It was as difficult as a small sapling fighting for nutrients with a towering tree. If Qin Lang's Martial Soul Seed were to devour Tang Shengyin's Martial Soul, he might be devoured by the other party instead if he was not careful.
After many attempts, Qin Lang did not find the most suitable method. It was one thing to suppress this Martial Soul, but it was another thing to make it willingly be devoured. The difference in difficulty was too great. Fortunately, Qin Lang was not afraid of trouble. If one method did not work, he would try another. In the end, Qin Lang finally found a way.
He used the mysterious purple Qi in his body!
This mysterious purple Qi was indeed a very mysterious existence. So far, Qin Lang had not figured out what it was. This mysterious purple Qi was not the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth or the Evil Qi of Earth. It was not even any of the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth that Qin Lang knew. However, this purple Qi had previously trapped the Young Monk Dan Ling. A pill spirit was also a kind of spiritual body. It was an existence that was completely different from a physical body. This was somewhat similar to a Martial Soul, so Qin Lang finally decided to try using this mysterious purple Qi. The result was something that Qin Lang did not expect at all. This mysterious purple Qi could actually bind Tang Shengyin's Martial Soul tightly!
Qin Lang finally understood that this mysterious purple Qi seemed to have a strong restraining effect on spiritual bodies. After finally completely binding Tang Shengyin's Martial Soul, Qin Lang finally officially began the refining process. He used the Dark Samsara Visualization Technique, mobilized the Martial Soul Seed in his spiritual world, and began the process of devouring the Martial Soul.
At this time, the Martial Soul Seed in Qin Lang's spiritual world was like a seed of a Parasitic Tree, and Tang Shengyin's Martial Soul was the towering tree that the Parasitic Tree Seed had taken root and sprouted. Although the tree was towering, it was powerless in the face of the Parasitic Tree's plunder. It could only watch helplessly as the Parasitic Tree stole its nutrients. The Parasitic Tree would grow at an extremely fast speed. Its roots would go deeper than the original towering tree, the trunk would grow taller, and the branches would spread wider … until the Parasitic Tree completely replaced the original towering tree.
The weak were prey to the strong. It was the same in the animal world, the plant world, and the world of warriors.
