Putting away the joy he felt from successfully condensing three talismans, Lu Xuan calmed himself down once more and took out the Soul-Shocking Technique.
The Soul-Shocking Technique was not an overbearing Secret Soul Technique. Its effects would vary according to the difference in the Soul Powers of both parties. If the Soul Powers of both parties were about the same, then the effects of the Soul-Shocking Technique would be rather limited. At most, it would be able to shake the enemy's soul to a certain extent, causing the enemy to fall into a trance for a moment. However, if the difference in the Soul Powers of both parties was too great, then the Soul-Shocking Technique would be able to directly destroy the enemy's soul.
However, even though the Secret Soul Technique was powerful, one had to be cautious when cultivating it. Before successfully cultivating it, it was extremely easy for one to suffer a backlash. The soul was the foundation of a person and no mistakes could be tolerated.
Under Lu Xuan's control, the Soul Powers began to rapidly converge. The Soul Powers of a Six Star Talisman Master were already quite powerful. However, on the Heavenly Sword Continent, the majority of Talisman Masters could only use their enormous Soul Powers to draw upon the energy of the world to inscribe talismans. They were simply unable to gather their Soul Powers to use against their enemies.
This was due to the lack of a Secret Soul Technique. Without a Secret Soul Technique, it was equivalent to having a body full of power but not knowing how to use it.
However, even with a Secret Soul Technique, it was not easy to gather Soul Powers to the point where they could attack the enemy.
At that moment, Lu Xuan was facing such a situation. Even though he had mobilized his Soul Powers according to the Soul-Shocking Technique, he still had a feeling of gathering his Soul Powers but not his spirit. Lu Xuan tried his best to focus his mind, wanting to forcefully gather his Soul Powers. However, it resulted in the opposite effect. Due to using too much force, his Soul Powers instantly collapsed and scattered.
Lu Xuan could not help but fall into a trance. He could only feel his vision turning black and his entire body swaying uncontrollably. His heart shivered, knowing that this was due to him being too hasty, resulting in the backlash of his Soul Powers.
At that moment, he did not dare to advance too rashly. Instead, he continued to practice. First, he mobilized strands of Soul Powers and successfully gathered them together. Next, he slowly increased the strength of his Soul Powers.
Although he continued to fail, due to his steady progress, the backlash did not appear as intense as before. It was still within a tolerable range.
His power of the soul continued to be depleted, only to be replenished by Lu Xuan again and again. Lu Xuan failed again and again during this period of time. He had no idea how many times he had experienced this, but his understanding of the power of the soul finally grew deeper and deeper. He gradually came to understand that the power of the soul was different from the power of the Origin. The soul was closely related to the person, and their relationship was much closer than that of the power of the Origin. It could be said that the power of the soul was external, while the power of the soul was one's own power.
Therefore, Yuan Power could be forcefully gathered, but Spiritual Strength was different. It required one to have a certain understanding of the essence of Spiritual Strength. The deeper the understanding, the more proficient one would be in using Spiritual Strength.
After approximately seven days, Lu Xuan was already able to instantly gather nearly half of his Soul Powers. If he was given enough time, it would not be impossible for him to gather all of his Soul Powers.
However, in a battle, myriad changes occurred in an instant. It was absolutely impossible to give you enough time. Therefore, the Soul Powers that Lu Xuan could currently use were only half. Even so, it was already enough to cause harm to the enemy. After all, other than Talisman Masters, the majority of martial artists did not cultivate their Soul. In terms of Soul Powers, they were far inferior to Lu Xuan, who cultivated Talisman Dao.
At this point, all the Cultivation Methods, Martial Skills, and Secret Techniques that Lu Xuan had obtained in the Book Depository Pavilion, except for the Telepathic Sword that he had yet to successfully cultivate, had almost been completely digested by him.
He had gathered the Five Elements Divine Runes, successfully cultivated the Divine Ability Secret Technique, Golden Blaze Explosion, awakened the two great talents of the Azure Dragon Bloodline, successfully engraved three Six Star Talismans in his soul, and even grasped the Soul Shocking Technique. Lu Xuan's previous strength in the Body Refinement and Soul Refinement Lineages had almost completely caught up to the Spirit Refinement Lineage. After all, he had spent almost all of his time on it and had instead slacked off on cultivating the Spirit Refinement Lineage.
Although his cultivation level was still at the seventh level of the Spirit Refinement Lineage, Lu Xuan believed that his true strength had already reached the peak of the Spirit Refinement Lineage. The peak of the Spirit Refinement Lineage in Lu Xuan's heart was not the same as Wan Jianfei's, but the strength of the martial artist in the first stage of the War God Hall's test.
"It's time to go to the Ancient Forest to test the results of my cultivation." Lu Xuan thought.
Ever since Lu Xuan started cultivating in the Heaven Emperor Palace, many of the powerful demonic beasts in the Ancient Forest had been suffering unspeakably because they all knew that a new "demonic beast" had appeared in the Ancient Forest. It was hard to say how powerful it was, but it had incomparably many tricks up its sleeves.
Often, after a period of time, it would come to find trouble with them. Moreover, this "demonic beast" seemed to be very aggressive. Every time it came, it would just fight with them. If it couldn't win, it would run away. If it could win, it would plunder all the spiritual materials it had been guarding for a long time.
Although Lu Xuan's behavior was incomparably immoral, many demonic beasts couldn't do anything to Lu Xuan. Moreover, every time Lu Xuan came, they had to be 120% vigilant to deal with him. Because if they failed, they would be looted by Lu Xuan, or even killed by Lu Xuan directly. Lu Xuan was very interested in the bodies of these demonic beasts. The bodies of Rank Ten demonic beasts were very good spiritual materials.
In the outside world, Rank Ten demonic beasts were basically in hiding. Those who didn't would be killed by other martial artists. Unlike the Ancient Forest, where no one had been here for countless years, and with the restriction of the formation, there were quite a lot of Rank Ten demonic beasts. It was simply the best place to train.
However, Lu Xuan didn't kill all of them. Other than occasionally killing some demonic beasts for Little Tanuki as food, most of the time, even if he defeated them, he would only take some blood from them for enchantment.
Recently, Lu Xuan had been busy cultivating and learning alchemy. It had been a long time since he went to the Ancient Forest. This time, his strength had broken through again. Without hesitation, he immediately left the Enlightenment Pavilion and went to the Ancient Forest through the teleportation formation.
"Who should I find trouble with this time?" Lu Xuan touched his chin and thought. After being in the Ancient Forest for so long, Lu Xuan had long understood the territories of the nearby demonic beasts.
"Blue-eyed Ice Tiger? Forget it, I don't know if the injury on its butt has healed. There's not much pressure to fight with it. " As Lu Xuan thought, he shook his head. As the saying went, one shouldn't touch a tiger's butt. However, Lu Xuan had ruthlessly stabbed its butt with a sword. If the Blue-eyed Ice Tiger heard this, it would definitely be grateful. Previously, its butt had been stabbed by Lu Xuan and it still couldn't walk smoothly.
"Adamantine Black Rock Bear? This fellow has thick skin and can take a beating. However, last time Little Tanuki wanted to eat bear paw, I seem to have cut off a piece of its flesh. It probably hasn't recovered yet. "
Several images of Tenth Rank demonic beasts flashed across Lu Xuan's mind. He shook his head repeatedly, but then he thought of a suitable target. His eyes lit up and he said, "I got it. That Frigid Pool Giant Dragon is quite powerful. It's a peak Tenth Rank demonic beast, close to the Daemon King Realm. Moreover, I haven't found trouble with it before. It should be enough for me to fight it head-on."
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan no longer hesitated and rushed towards the Frigid Pool excitedly. Needless to say, the Frigid Pool Giant Dragon was the unlucky fellow that Lu Xuan had smashed it with the Elixir Cauldron. Back then, Lu Xuan could only use the Elixir Cauldron to suppress it. But now, it should be enough for him to fight it head-on, even if it was close to the Daemon King Realm.
Lu Xuan sped along the way, flying over the ancient forest in an arrogant manner. Sensing his aura, the demonic beasts on the way could not help but retract their own aura, afraid of being targeted by Lu Xuan. This fellow was too difficult to deal with. If he could win, he would fight. If he couldn't, he would run. They did not want to cause trouble for no reason.
Not long after, Lu Xuan sensed a cold air. The Frigid Pool was right in front of him.
Seeing the clear Frigid Pool in front of him, Lu Xuan revealed a smile and landed lightly on the ground. Then, a strange expression flashed across his face.
"Huh? Ruo Xiang Yi said that without the Frigid Pool Peony's flowers, the effect of the Frigid Pool would decrease. Why don't I feel any change? Is it because the time is too short? " Lu Xuan felt the cold air emitted by the Frigid Pool. Clearly, there was no change. It was still as cold as before.
However, he did not think about it anymore. Instead, he took out the Masked Sword, circulated his Yuan power, and fiercely slashed at the Frigid Pool. In an instant, water splashed in all directions and waves spread out.
As Lu Xuan expected, the Frigid Pool rippled even more violently after the slash. Then, a roar was heard. The Frigid Pool Giant Serpent broke out of the water and appeared above the Frigid Pool in an instant. A pair of huge eyes stared at Lu Xuan fiercely.
The Frigid Pool Giant Serpent was an existence close to the Demonic King Realm. It was a tyrant in this area. Coupled with the help of the Frigid Pool, it was almost invincible. Normally, no demonic beasts would dare to come and seek death. Unexpectedly, when it was cultivating today, it sensed a fellow stirring up trouble above the Frigid Pool. It immediately surfaced to warn the intruder.
However, the moment it saw Lu Xuan, the Frigid Pool Giant Serpent could not help but move back a little. It looked around vigilantly, afraid that the incomparably heavy pill cauldron would come smashing over.
Seeing the familiar figure of the Frigid Pool Giant Serpent, Lu Xuan could not help but grin. This fellow was still here. It was a good opportunity for him to practice. Immediately, he brandished the Masked Sword and charged at the Frigid Pool Giant Serpent.
However, unexpectedly, when it saw him charging over, the Frigid Pool Giant Serpent did not even think. In an instant, it dove into the Frigid Pool Giant Serpent and did not show its face at all. It had no intention of fighting with Lu Xuan at all.
It knew that Lu Xuan had the pill cauldron and it would definitely not be able to defeat him. If it went forward, it would definitely be beaten up for nothing. It might as well pretend that nothing had happened. Anyway, the Frigid Pool Peony had already been plucked by Lu Xuan, leaving only a few flower buds. Lu Xuan probably did not intend to take them. If he really wanted them, then he could just take them away. It was powerless to stop him anyway. Thinking about it, the Frigid Pool Giant Serpent felt a little miserable. It was an existence close to the Demonic King Realm, yet it was suppressed to the point of not daring to show its face.
