Grabbing the book, Zhang Xuan quickly flipped it open.
The contents immediately flowed into his mind, becoming his memories.
"It has indeed reached the level of Heaven's Path! Hahaha!"
Zhang Xuan burst into laughter, and he nearly leaped into the air.
All along, he had been searching for a soul cultivation technique to complement his soul cultivation technique. Who could have thought that this secret art would have something to do with space? Only a book on space would be able to solve this problem!
"I should temper my soul first before cultivating this secret art!"
Having formed the Heaven's Path Divine Art, Zhang Xuan sat down cross-legged and drew his soul out from his glabella.
Tzzzzzzz!
Without the protection of his physical body, the pressure on his soul intensified. In an instant, Zhang Xuan felt as if he had been plunged into a hurricane, and he would be torn apart at any moment.
"Heart of Boulder, Soul of Mountain!"
Knowing that the more unstable he was, the easier it would be for his soul to be torn apart, Zhang Xuan focused his mind, and the image of a massive mountain appeared in his mind.
It was the White Creek Mountain.
Among the soul oracle cultivation techniques, there was a visualization technique that allowed one to purify their soul energy. For example, if one visualized flames, one's soul energy would become incomparably hot; if one visualized ice, one's soul energy would become as cold as snow.
Zhang Xuan had used this secret art when he first started cultivating, but as his cultivation grew stronger, he found that it wasn't that troublesome anymore. Thus, he didn't put too much effort into it. However, at this moment, feeling that his soul was on the verge of being torn apart, he decided to use it once more.
Weng!
As soon as he visualized the mountain, the shaking soul immediately stabilized. It was as if a mountain was standing in the midst of a hurricane. No matter how strong the storm was, it would remain unmoved.
Stabilizing his body, Zhang Xuan took in a deep breath and channeled the pressure in the air into his body so as to temper his slightly chubby soul.
Geji! Geji!
Under the tempering of the pressure, his massive soul became purer and purer.
"The pressure is getting weaker. Let's continue forward!"
A few minutes later, Zhang Xuan finally got used to the pressure. It no longer had any effect on him, so he took a few steps forward before sitting down once more to continue tempering his soul.
…
Outside the stone door, the boy statue that had been standing motionlessly opened his eyes once again.
"Look at that fellow! How is he doing? Even if the person inside doesn't make a move personally, just the power that emanates from his body is enough to stop him from moving forward, and even destroy his soul! "
With a light snort, he tapped with his finger, and a wall of light immediately appeared in the air, clearly displaying the situation in Zhang Xuan's passageway.
"This guy should be … Hmm? What's going on? "
Suddenly, the boy statue froze in place. His eyes widened as if they were about to fall out of the stone.
Within the wall of light, the young man was standing in the passageway with his hands on his waist. His face was filled with anger and anger. "Where's the pressure? If you have the ability, then come out. I haven't absorbed enough and haven't finished practicing yet! You dare to show off at such a young age? If you don't come out now, I'll tear down the passageway! "
"Is he shouting?"
The adolescent boy sculpture nearly fainted on the spot.
He had thought that the person in the passageway would have been able to knock him out or even crush him to death with just his aura alone … Who could have thought that not only was the other party completely fine, he even thought that the pressure from the other party was too weak?
Where did this freak come from?
What a scam!
"Forget it. Since there's no pressure anymore, I'll be heading in …"
After shouting for a long time, the pressure finally disappeared without a trace. Thus, the adolescent boy walked in helplessly.
To be honest, it wasn't that Zhang Xuan was putting on an act, but the pressure was simply too stifling.
It was just a moment ago that he was in the midst of cultivating and felt his soul grow smaller, and yet, the other party suddenly disappeared … Anyone would be infuriated by this.
After all, if he were to cultivate for a while longer, he would be able to utilize Soul Traverse, thus raising his fighting prowess significantly.
Let's see what is releasing the pressure. If I can't find it, I'll just have to find it …
Soon, Zhang Xuan regained his composure and continued walking forward.
Hula!
However, barely after taking a few steps, he suddenly felt a chill running down his spine. A powerful shockwave was heading straight for him.
He hurriedly retracted his body and pressed himself against the wall.
Pu!
A small hole immediately appeared in the wall.
"How powerful …"
Taking a closer look, Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up.
What had just shot at him wasn't a hidden weapon or a sword qi attack, but an ordinary droplet of water!
For a droplet of water to pierce through his protective barrier and through the wall, the person who had made a move on him was most likely a Great Sage at the very minimum!
"Let's see what it is first before deciding whether to use Kong Shi's blood or not …"
Zhang Xuan clenched his fingers tightly around the droplet on his palm, ready to tap it at any moment. However, after a moment of hesitation, he still decided to stop and step forward.
Every droplet of Kong Shi's blood was one less droplet, so he mustn't use it recklessly.
Huala!
As soon as he turned the corner, he saw several dozen water droplets flying in his direction at an incredible speed, sealing off all paths of retreat in his direction.
Even though these droplets of water didn't carry particularly powerful zhenqi, they were simply too fast. Even with his current strength, he would still be severely injured or even killed if he were to come into contact with them.
"Bloodline activation …"
Knowing that there was no way for him to escape, Zhang Xuan activated a droplet of the Zhang family's blood that Heung Kensei had given him previously.
Hu!
Time seemed to have slowed down, and the droplets of water that were flying toward him a moment ago suddenly slowed down to a point where he could see them clearly with his naked eye.
Stretching out his finger, Zhang Xuan tapped lightly on one of the droplets before him.
Po!
The droplet of water immediately broke apart, nourishing his fingertip.
With a few taps, the dozens of droplets before him finally dissipated. Only then did Zhang Xuan heave a sigh of relief, and his eyes lit up in excitement.
As expected of the Zhang family's bloodline, it was far more powerful than the Luo Clan's bloodline. As soon as he used it, it immediately displayed its extraordinary prowess.
If he didn't use this power, he would have surely been injured by the droplets. However, with the current speed of the droplets, it was no different from a snail before him. They posed no threat to him at all.
"But this is way too taxing on my blood essence …"
Even though Zhang Xuan was excited, he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly when he saw the rate at which his blood essence was being depleted.
Just by breaking a few droplets, he had actually used up half of his blood essence in an instant … In other words, the three droplets of blood that the Zhang family had put in so much effort to refine had been completely depleted after just six tries …
Even Zhang Xuan couldn't help but feel that it was a huge waste.
Hu!
With a thought, Zhang Xuan recovered from the state of time acceleration, and the scenery before him reverted back to its original state.
At this moment, he realized that he was standing in the middle of a vast hall.
At the very center of the hall was a massive pool with a diameter of at least several hundred meters. The water within was bubbling furiously, as if it was boiling.
Just as Zhang Xuan was perplexed as to why droplets of water would shoot out at such a rapid speed from the pool, he suddenly heard a deafening rumble. Following which, a bizarre object leaped out from the pool and flew straight up.
Huala!
Droplets of water scattered in all directions.
