It was still early in the evening, so Lin Tian came to the cultivation area again. This time, he chose to take a look at the turbulent torrent. [Full text to read]
"I'll go too!"
Xin Chengyun said.
Lin Tian didn't say anything, so Xin Chengyun followed him into the turbulent torrent space.
Rumble!
As soon as they entered, there was a sudden roar, and the earth seemed to be shaking. In front of them, a wide river ran from north to south. The water was reddish-green, and the current was frighteningly fast, splashing waves.
"It seems that I can't help you in this place. Do you want to go down?"
Lin Tian asked.
Xin Chengyun swallowed his saliva. Not only was the scarlet-green water current astonishingly fast, but when it approached, one could feel a terrifying chill. This caused Xin Chengyun to involuntarily tremble. He said, "This … I suddenly remembered that there are still some things I need to take care of. I think I need to go home immediately."
Lin Tian: "…"
"Brother-in-law, you can do it!"
Xin Chengyun said, waved at Lin Tian, and then ran out.
Lin Tian smiled and shook his head. To be honest, this place was really difficult for Xin Chengyun, who was in the Body Refining Realm, to withstand.
Looking at the front again, the water was majestic like ten thousand horses galloping. Occasionally, there would be huge waves of water that were nearly ten feet high, and the rumbling sound was like the vibration of thunder. Lin Tian casually glanced around and saw that there were many disciples of the Academy cultivating in the turbulent torrent, fighting against the turbulent current.
"It's really spectacular!"
Lin Tian said to himself.
After a pause, Lin Tian didn't hesitate and immediately stepped in.
This torrent looked fierce, but it wasn't deep. After stepping in, the water level was only about his abdomen. But even so, this torrent was extremely cold. Even the current Lin Tian couldn't help but feel cold. There was a bone-piercing chill that enveloped him, as if it was going to penetrate his bone marrow.
"This turbulent torrent is really good to train a martial artist's courage and endurance."
Lin Tian thought.
Even Lin Tian felt some pain when the torrent of water hit his body, and the bone-piercing cold was not something an ordinary person could endure. He could not help but shiver a few times. Moreover, according to his understanding, this torrent was over 1km in length, and the higher it went, the faster the flow of water and the colder it was.
"Judging from this situation, if you want to stand firmly in this torrent, even at the end, you have to be at least at the early stage of the Divine Pulse. And if you want to stand firmly at the source, I'm afraid you have to be at the Sea of Consciousness Realm."
After a while, Lin Tian shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
He took a deep breath and began to circulate the Four Extreme Meridians, using his tyrannical True Essence to support his body and resist the rushing torrent. At the same time, he also used it to resist the bone-piercing chill contained within the torrent. After that, he began to adjust the flow of True Essence in his body and began to cultivate the Nirvana Fist that he had just obtained from the Scripture Depository.
"Nirvana Fist. Compress True Yuan and send out a light beam shaped fist aura, destroying everything in its path."
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
According to the records of the Nirvana Fist Art, Lin Tian constantly adjusted the True Essence in his body and gathered it at his right fist. Then, like cotton, he kept compressing it. Soon, he felt an intense pain. He felt as if his right fist had turned into a balloon, and the air inside was recklessly blowing up his fist.
This caused Lin Tian's expression to change, and he quickly stopped.
"My current physical body is comparable to an expert at the 7th level of the Divine Pulse Realm, but it is still difficult to cultivate this Nirvana Fist Art. It is hard to withstand the True Essence compressed at the tip of my fist, and I can't blast out a fist aura." Lin Tian muttered to himself and shook his head. "It seems like I have to quickly increase my physical body's strength."
After thinking about it, Lin Tian temporarily gave up on cultivating the Nirvana Fist Art and started to focus on tempering his body. The Four Extreme Meridians quickly circulated, and a faint True Essence condensed on the surface of his body. He faced the torrential waves and started to move upstream. Soon, he walked from the end of the torrent to the middle of the torrent.
Rumble!
When he reached the middle of the torrent, the torrent was even more shocking. Occasionally, there would be waves as high as 15 meters, and the water was even colder.
Lin Tian took a deep breath and circulated the Four Extreme Meridians even faster. He continued to move forward.
There were many people in the torrent, and almost all of them were senior disciples. When they saw this scene, they couldn't help but be astonished.
"Who is that guy? He has actually crossed half of this turbulent current and is still going up! "
"He looks unfamiliar. I have never seen him before."
"Could he be a new student?!"
"A new student? There is actually such a strong person among the new students? "
"His physical body is abnormal!"
Many people stared with wide eyes.
One had to know that in order to cross the middle of the torrent, one would need to be at least at the 5th level of the Divine Pulse Realm!
Lin Tian didn't care about these people's discussions. He gritted his teeth and continued to move forward. When he was about 120 meters away from the source of the torrent, he felt an unparalleled obstruction and finally couldn't move forward anymore.
"This place will do."
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
His Four Extreme Meridians circulated quickly. Then, he did something that made all the senior disciples behind him tremble. He actually buried his head and submerged his entire body into the torrent!
"Damn! What is this guy doing? "
"This, could it be that he fainted?"
"Bullsh * t! No matter how I look at it, he is the one who shrunk into the water! "
Many of the older disciples were stunned. They even forgot that they were cultivating and stared straight ahead.
Just like this, time passed minute by minute.
Soon, 15 minutes had passed.
"Could it be that he really fainted?"
"It has only been 15 minutes. What's the rush? Divine Pulse Realm cultivators can hold their breath for at least an hour."
"But this is a torrent. How can it be compared to the outside world? Moreover, that guy is standing so close to the source of the torrent! "
Many people were discussing spiritedly.
Another 15 minutes passed. Just when most people thought that Lin Tian had fainted, finally, there was a splash of water in front of them. Lin Tian stood up with a whoosh, shocking many senior disciples.
"Half an hour! In such a place, his entire body was submerged in the torrent, and he actually lasted for half an hour! "
"Is he really a freshman? He is a freak! "
"His physique is probably comparable to an expert at the seventh level of the Divine Vein Realm!"
Many people were flabbergasted.
Lin Tian didn't care about these people's voices. He only felt a tearing pain coming from his body. His legs that were submerged in the torrent were faintly trembling.
"It seems like I have reached my limit."
He muttered to himself.
He held his breath as his entire body sank into the torrent. The rapid torrent wantonly scoured every part of his body, and a bone-piercing chill endlessly surged into his body like numerous ice blades slicing his body. Under such circumstances, he persisted for 30 minutes, which was comparable to standing in the torrent normally for 6 hours.
He took a deep breath, squatted slightly, and suddenly jumped up.
Swish! He rushed out from the torrent and landed steadily on the shore.
"Damn, he still has the strength to jump!
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Really … "
"What a monster!"
This scene caused many people's hearts to palpitate.
After walking out from the torrent, Lin Tian instantly felt much better. His body was no longer cold, and his breathing became smoother. He paused for a moment and walked out from the small space in the torrent. He felt that his body was much tougher.
Not long later, Lin Tian returned to his residence. It was already night time. He washed his body and changed into a clean set of clothes. He then sat cross-legged on the bed, pulled out two Spirit Gathering Runes, and started cultivating.
"Buzz!"
Faint silver light lingered on the surface of his body, making him look extremely elegant. It was as though an immortal had descended to the mortal world.
Soon, the night passed.
Time passed. For the next few days, Lin Tian went to the torrent to cultivate almost every day, constantly tempering his physical body. Gradually, Lin Tian discovered the benefits of the torrent. Not only could it strengthen a martial artist's physique, but the cold air in the torrent could also penetrate through the acupoints time after time, making it easier to construct the Divine Pulse in the future.
In the blink of an eye, five days passed.
On this day, Lin Tian walked out of his residence and prepared to head to the torrent to cultivate as usual. These few days, he felt that his physical body had become much stronger. It would not be long before he could start cultivating the Nirvana Fist Art for real. He was looking forward to compressing his Quintessential Essence to the extreme and brandishing the materialized full aura to kill enemies from a distance!
"Brother-in-law! Something bad happened, Brother-in-law! "
At this moment, Xin Chengyun, who he had not seen for a few days, hurriedly ran over from afar, panting heavily.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Tian was a little puzzled.
Xin Chengyun's expression was a little ugly. He said carefully, "Brother-in-law, the Dragon Scale Horse, it, it …"
Lin Tian frowned. He had a bad feeling. Without asking Xin Chengyun what happened, he walked straight to the imperial courtyard's stable. Soon, he arrived at the stable and saw a group of people in front of him. They were discussing something softly, and it happened to be the Dragon Scale Horse's position. He walked up and pushed the crowd aside. Suddenly, his expression changed.
In front of him, the Dragon Scale Horse was lying on the ground. Its originally smooth mane was completely dyed red with blood. Its body was covered with dense sword wounds. Its limbs were all cut off, and it was on the verge of death. Lin Tian quickly walked to the Dragon Scale Horse's side. The Dragon Scale Horse seemed to have sensed its master's arrival. It struggled slightly, but it could not stand up.
Lin Tian squatted down and placed his right hand on the Dragon Scale Horse's body. He felt that the Dragon Scale Horse's life force was quickly draining away. It could not survive. He looked around and realized that not only were the Dragon Scale Horse's limbs cut off, but its abdomen was also cut open. Blood flowed out without any regard for its life, dyeing the ground completely red.
The Dragon Scale Horse opened its mouth and seemed to want to cry out, but blood continued to gush out.
Lin Tian clenched his fist tightly. A terrifying killing intent appeared in his eyes.
"Rest in peace!"
He said. Then, he took out a dagger from the stone ring. After trembling a few times, he finally endured the pain and cut open the Dragon Scale Horse's throat. He personally ended the Dragon Scale Horse's last breath. With its limbs cut off and its abdomen cut open, the Dragon Scale Horse could not survive. He did not want it to continue suffering.
Standing up, Lin Tian swept his gaze around. A terrifying killing intent seeped out of his body.
"Who did this!"
Staring at the crowd, his voice was low and his eyes were even more terrifying.
Facing such a gaze, the crowd was startled, and many people began to retreat.
Lin Tian stepped forward and almost instantly arrived in front of one of the people. He grabbed the person's collar and asked, "Who did this!"
Seeing Lin Tian's terrifying eyes at such a close distance, the person's face turned pale and he almost fainted.
"Xia … Xia Wu …"
This person was also a new imperial courtyard student and recognized Xia Wu.
