"Could it be that there is someone in the outer islands who is Uncle Pan's match?" After listening to Elder Zhu's words, Xing Jue chuckled. Then, he cast his gaze towards Uncle Pan.
"Hehe, you brat." After seeing Xing Jue's mischievous look, Uncle Pan shook his head helplessly. He knew that the brat was making fun of him.
"Brother Pan's strength can definitely be considered as one of the top experts in the outer islands. However, the 'Shadow of Darkness' is definitely not to be underestimated. From what I know, there are also Battle-King experts in the 'Shadow of Darkness'. "
"Back when the Chamber of Commerce clashed with the Shadow of Darkness, in order to obtain victory, the president of the Chamber of Commerce borrowed the power of the pill and vaguely reached the Battle-King level."
"Even so, they were still defeated. Furthermore, they did not use their true strength. "Elder Zhu solemnly said. He showed a trace of fear towards the Shadow of Darkness.
"Oh?" After hearing Elder Zhu's words, even Uncle Pan's expression became solemn.
"But then again, the Shadow of Darkness is extremely low-profile. As long as you do not interfere in their affairs, they will not cause trouble for you." Elder Zhu added.
"In that case, let's put this matter aside. After all, the less trouble, the better." After hearing Elder Zhu's words, Xing Jue also smiled. In any case, the matter of Sky Pond Island had already been resolved. Even if the 'Shadow of Darkness' tried to kill someone else, Xing Jue did not want to interfere.
After all, he was not a savior, nor did he want to be a hero. Moreover, there were too many unfair things in the world. He could not interfere even if he wanted to. What he needed to do was to continuously strengthen himself and protect the people around him from harm. That was enough.
After that, under the warm hospitality of the villagers, the group enjoyed a sumptuous feast...
The next morning, Xing Jue originally wanted to find a quiet place to cultivate with Uncle Pan. However, Elder Zhu insisted on inviting Xing Jue, Uncle Pan, and Xu Changqing to the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce as guests.
Due to the fact that Elder Zhu had saved his life, Xing Jue was too embarrassed to reject him.
Thus, Xing Jue and his group headed toward the Jing Chamber of Commerce's headquarters. In fact, the main reason why Elder Zhu invited Xing Jue was so that his president could form a relationship with Uncle Pan. After all, a Battle-King level expert was someone who could proclaim himself as an overlord in the Boundless Sea Region.
If he could form a relationship with a powerhouse like Uncle Pan through the Chamber of Commerce, it would definitely be a matter of great benefit and no harm.
However, when Elder Zhu and the others arrived at the Chamber of Commerce's headquarters, they discovered that their President was not present. Feeling helpless, Elder Zhu invited Xing Jue and the others to stay for a few more days. For Xing Jue, all he wanted was to improve his strength. As long as there was a place for him to cultivate, he would be satisfied. Thus, he decided to stay.
Under Elder Zhu's arrangements, Xing Jue and Uncle Pan were arranged to stay in the Jing Chamber of Commerce's backyard. Moreover, they were ordered not to let any unrelated people near the backyard. Since the backyard of the Jing Chamber of Commerce's headquarters was unusually large, there was enough space for Xing Jue to cultivate.
Although Uncle Pan could give some guidance to Xing Jue during his cultivation, most of his cultivation still depended on his own hard work. Since he was unable to quickly reach the level of a high-ranked Wu Zun, Xing Jue decided to use his energy in other areas.
As his cultivation level increased, the amount of Soul Energy required for Spiritual Burst also increased. For this reason, Xing Jue focused all his energy on the 'Beast Soul'.
After all, the Beast Soul also contained a lot of Soul Energy. If he refined it, Xing Jue's Soul Energy would increase by a lot. At that time, if he used Spiritual Burst again, he might be able to advance from a mid-ranked Wu Zun to a high-ranked Wu Zun.
However, refining the 'Beast Soul' was not easy. Before this, Xing Jue had to follow the records of the Soul Devouring Technique and began to familiarize himself with controlling his Soul Energy. Only when he had perfect control of his Soul Energy could he refine the Beast Soul. Otherwise, it would be easy to fail, and the losses would outweigh the gains.
Therefore, in the following days, other than his daily cultivation, Xing Jue trained his control of Soul Energy. After a week of continuous training, Xing Jue finally mastered the method recorded in the Soul Devouring Technique.
Therefore, after bidding farewell to Uncle Pan, he hid in his room and began to refine the Beast Soul.
After Xing Jue took out the Beast Soul, he did not directly swallow it. Instead, he placed it on his palm and opened his mouth. A dark Soul Energy slowly surged out and tightly wrapped around the Beast Soul.
"Ji Ji Ji Ji"
When the two souls collided with each other, they repelled each other. As they rubbed against each other, ear-piercing sounds rang out.
However, Xing Jue was not nervous at all. He directly threw the Beast Soul that was wrapped by the dark Soul Energy into his mouth. After the Beast Soul entered his stomach, he began to control the soul in his body to continuously launch fierce attacks on the Beast Soul.
The Soul Energy within the Beast Soul also formed a defensive net, protecting the core of the Soul Energy from being eroded. However, under Xing Jue's ingenious control, the Beast Soul was like a well-trained army.
It continuously launched fierce attacks. Under such powerful attacks, the Beast Soul's soul defense finally began to collapse.
After that, the dark Soul Energy invaded the Beast Soul and began to frantically plunder. In other words, it was plundering. In fact, it was to break down the beast soul so that it could be refined better.
After completely breaking down the Beast Soul, Xing Jue began to refine the Beast Soul. However, Xing Jue discovered that although breaking down the Beast Soul was easy, refining it and turning it into his own power was not easy.
However, Xing Jue was not anxious. He believed that as long as he continued to refine it, he would be able to completely refine the Beast Soul after a week.
As expected, after a week, Xing Jue finally refined the Beast Soul. His Soul Energy had indeed become much stronger.
Xing Jue sat in his room with his eyes closed. At the same time, the Dark Soul Energy in his body was operating ingeniously. When Xing Jue opened his eyes again, the Dark Soul Energy surged out from Xing Jue's body. In the end, it was like a flame rising from Xing Jue's body.
Feeling the Soul Energy on the surface of his body, which had become stronger, Xing Jue smiled. With a light shout, he absorbed the Soul Energy into his body.
At the same time, his aura continued to rise. In the end, it actually reached the level of High Grade Wu Zun.
"I finally succeeded." Feeling the power in his body, Xing Jue smiled.
However, Xing Jue also knew that in the future, he would need to find some powerful Beast Souls to refine. Otherwise, as his strength increased, the effect of the Soul Burst would decrease.
Although his Soul Energy would increase with every increase in level, it was obviously not enough to break through to the next level.
Although Xing Jue's strength had temporarily reached the level of High Grade Wu Zun by relying on the Soul Burst, Xing Jue did not refine the Body of Energy. He knew that it would take a long time to refine the Body of Energy. Therefore, he must truly reach the level of High Grade Wu Zun before he could refine it.
This was an important matter that concerned him breaking through to the Martial God Realm. Xing Jue did not dare to be careless.
After refining the Beast Soul, Xing Jue did not waste any time. Immediately, he began to cultivate the Rising Dragon Blade.
The Rising Dragon Blade was the Nangong Family's most powerful Martial Skill. Xing Jue had always been looking forward to the magnificent Martial Skill of the Nangong Family. Moreover, it was a Middle Earth Rank Martial Skill. Xing Jue was looking forward to it.
However, what made Xing Jue helpless was that the difficulty of cultivating the "Rising Dragon Blade" was extremely high. Even though he had studied the cultivation method of the "Rising Dragon Blade" countless times, he still couldn't grasp it.
Feeling helpless, Xing Jue could only ask Uncle Pan for help. The answer Uncle Pan gave Xing Jue was that it was best to cultivate the Middle Earth Rank Martial Skill after reaching the Martial God Realm. Otherwise, even if he succeeded, he would not be able to use it.
After that, Xing Jue could only cultivate diligently. When he was free, he would take a stroll in the garden. Since Uncle Pan had not recovered to his original strength, he was not satisfied with his current strength. After he came to the garden with Xing Jue, other than occasionally chatting with Xing Jue and giving him some pointers, he would continue to cultivate.
On this day, when Xing Jue was taking a leisurely stroll in the garden, the space in front of him suddenly wriggled. Then, an old man wearing a purple vest appeared in front of Xing Jue. It was Elder Zhu of the Jing Chamber of Commerce.
"Elder Zhu, is there anything I can help you with?" Looking at Elder Zhu's anxious face, Xing Jue guessed that Elder Zhu must have something he needed his help with. Otherwise, Elder Zhu would not have come looking for him for no reason if he knew that he was cultivating.
"Haha, little friend Xing Jue, there is indeed something I need your help with." Seeing that Xing Jue had actually taken the initiative to ask, Elder Zhu no longer hesitated and directly laid his cards on the table. Thus, he told Elder Zhu about what had happened and what he needed Xing Jue's help with.
"Yes, I will discuss this matter with Uncle Pan." After listening to Elder Zhu's words, Xing Jue did not hesitate and agreed. Then, he walked towards Uncle Pan's residence.
It turned out that the Jing Chamber of Commerce was merely a financial institution of a powerful faction in the inner island of the Endless Sea Region. Due to the intense competition in the inner island, they had set their sights on the outer island.
Just a few days ago, a conflict broke out between the factions in the inner island and the other factions. The Jing Chamber of Commerce's president and some other experts were all summoned back. However, Elder Zhu had just received news that their president had been attacked on his way to the inner island and was currently in danger.
Thus, this time, Elder Zhu wanted to ask for Uncle Pan's help. After all, with such an expert taking action, their president would definitely be saved. However, as he was not very familiar with Uncle Pan, he could only ask for Xing Jue's help.
Back then, Elder Zhu had saved Xing Jue's life. Thus, Xing Jue naturally agreed to Elder Zhu's request.
"Elder Zhu, what is the name of the faction in the inner island?" After Xing Jue told Uncle Pan about the matter, Uncle Pan did not directly answer him. Instead, he asked Elder Zhu.
"Uh, it's called the Coiling Dragon Association." Elder Zhu answered honestly. After all, there was nothing to hide about this matter.
"Coiling Dragon Association?" After hearing Elder Zhu's words, Uncle Pan's originally calm face instantly changed.
