Although Jianchen's strength had not increased at all during his time in the sacred grounds, his understanding of Martial Soul Force had reached a whole new level.
At the same time, he finally understood how to use true Martial Soul Force.
As a result, although the Martial Soul Force he used remained at the same level as before, its power was completely different from before. It had increased by far, far too much.
After sending out a strand of Martial Soul Force, Jianchen stared at the divine hall without blinking. He wanted to see the effects.
"Hmm? What's this? Martial Soul Force? Is this the legendary Martial Soul Force? Hahaha, you call this Martial Soul Force? Jianchen, your Martial Soul Force isn't even enough to tickle me. You're dreaming if you think you can harm me with Martial Soul Force with your current strength, "the Artifact Spirit laughed aloud. Its voice was filled with provocation and disdain. "Come, come again. Continue. Let's see if you can threaten me at all with your current strength."
Jianchen did not become angered at all. Instead, he smiled faintly. He also understood that his Martial Soul Force was still very weak. It was nowhere near enough to harm the Artifact Spirit of a medium quality god artifact. The main reason he had come this time was to test whether Martial Soul Force could really ignore the defences of god artifacts and directly harm the Artifact Spirit like the legacy imprint had said.
Looking at it now, Martial Soul Force did not disappoint him. He was extremely excited.
This was because if his opponent possessed a god artifact, it would greatly increase their battle prowess. If his Martial Soul Force became powerful, the advantage of his opponent's god artifact would decrease drastically when he fought in the future.
"Eighth junior, you should properly increase your Martial Soul Force. If your Martial Soul Force can reach my level, you'll be able to have some fun with the Artifact Spirit of this divine hall." Aoyama walked over from afar. He stared at the divine hall and smiled mysteriously.
"Just like this …" Aoyama murmured. In the next moment, Jianchen immediately felt a powerful strand of Martial Soul Force shoot out from Aoyama's forehead, directly stabbing into the divine hall.
Immediately, the entire divine hall trembled gently. Afterwards, the Artifact Spirit cried out, "If you're bold enough, come in and fight me. What's the point of using Martial Soul Force to launch sneak attacks from outside?"
"A casual strike from me can make him suffer a little. The Artifact Spirit of this divine hall isn't powerful. But that makes sense. Although it's a medium quality god artifact, it's only at the bottom among medium quality god artifacts, "Qing Shan said indifferently.
"It's time for me to properly increase my Martial Soul Force," said Jianchen. The divine hall before him contained a tremendous amount of resources from the Gloomwater sect, including over a dozen droplets of hell water. He desperately wanted the Artifact Spirit to submit.
This was because once the Artifact Spirit submitted, he would be able to take everything in the divine hall.
However, the Artifact Spirit was just too stubborn. It refused to accept him. With his current strength, he was unable to forcefully subdue a medium quality god artifact.
Although the Chaotic Primes of the Martial Soul lineage could do it, Jianchen had never considered asking for help. Subduing god artifacts required his own strength.
"Let's go. I'll take you to the place where Martial Soul Stones are collected. Martial Soul Stones are extremely important to increase your Martial Soul Force." Aoyama left with Jianchen.
Before long, Aoyama took Jianchen into a cave.
The cave was very deep. There were traces of human excavation in the surroundings, making it seem more like a mine.
Very soon, Jianchen arrived at the very bottom of the cave under Aoyama's lead. It was an extremely spacious, circular hall. Dazzling, violet crystals covered the walls in the surroundings, shining with dazzling light. It was quite mesmerizing.
"These are Martial Soul Stones. In the entire Saints' World, only our Martial Soul Mountain can produce Martial Soul Stones. The disciples of our Martial Soul lineage all rely on Martial Soul Stones to increase their Martial Soul Force."
"That's because Martial Soul Stones contain pure Martial Soul Force. Not only will absorbing the Martial Soul Force within the Martial Soul Stones increase our Martial Soul Force, but it can also recover our Martial Soul Force. If we don't use Martial Soul Stones, it'll be extremely slow to condense Martial Soul Force through our own cultivation. " Aoyama looked at the violet crystals embedded in the rock as he explained to Jianchen in detail, "Martial Soul Stones are extremely special. When they fuse with the Martial Soul Mountain, the Martial Soul Force within them won't decrease. However, once they're extracted, the Martial Soul Force will rapidly drain away and return to the Martial Soul Mountain. As a result, Martial Soul Stones can't be stored for long periods of time like divine crystals.
Once they're extracted, you need to absorb as much Martial Soul Force as possible before it disappears. "
"Is there no way to take the Martial Soul Stones away?" Jianchen asked.
Aoyama shook his head, "There isn't. There's no way to take the Martial Soul Stones away because once they leave the Martial Soul Mountain, all the Martial Soul Force within them will drain away and return to the Martial Soul Mountain. As a result, you need to absorb the Martial Soul Stones here. "
Afterwards, Aoyama warned Jianchen about the areas he needed to pay attention to before patting Jianchen's shoulder. He said, "Eighth junior, cultivate here at ease. If there's anything you don't understand, you can come out and ask your seniors."
Aoyama left the mine, while Jianchen arrived before the rock face. He condensed sword Qi at the tip of his finger and stabbed it into the rock face to extract the Martial Soul Stones.
Extracting the Martial Soul Stones was not difficult. Very soon, a fist-sized, violet crystal fell to the ground.
Jianchen picked up the violet crystal and sensed it silently.
As expected, he could sense extremely pure Martial Soul Force within the violet crystal. However, the Martial Soul Force was flowing away at an extremely rapid rate.
At this rate, all the Martial Soul Force within the Martial Soul Stone would be drained away in less than half a day, returning to the Martial Soul Mountain.
Jianchen did not absorb it immediately. Instead, he thought of various methods to stop the Martial Soul Force from flowing away.
However, in the end, he was unable to stop it no matter what he did. He could only watch as the Martial Soul Stone in his hand vanished.
"It really can't be stored for long periods of time. I can't take it away." Jianchen sighed inside. He gave up on the idea of collecting some Martial Soul Stones. He extracted another Martial Soul Stone before sitting down to cultivate.
The Martial Soul Force within the Martial Soul Stone turned into thin ribbons of energy that entered Jianchen's forehead. Jianchen practised the Method of the Exalted Saint and began to formally practise the Grand Exalt's cultivation method.
Grand Exalt's cultivation method was a publicly acknowledged supreme legacy in the current world. It was a creation of the world and contained the mysteries of the ways. It was extremely profound and powerful.
It was unquestionable.
As he practised the cultivation method, the thin ribbons of energy in the Martial Soul Stone immediately became several times larger. The Martial Soul Force in the Martial Soul Stone immediately flowed away at a faster rate, forming a ribbon of light that connected to Jianchen's forehead.
