At the bottom of the Volcano of Demons, Ling Xian's expression was calm. His black hair and white robe were softly tussling in the wind.
A fiery red bead floated above his head, emitting a gentle halo of light. It made him look like a god of fire descending to the mortal world, forcing all flames to retreat as he looked down upon the world.
"I have finally reached the peak of the completion level."
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. His right hand formed into a fist and he punched forward.
HOMMMM!
The fist pierced through the air like a bolt of lightning. Immediately, the space before him crumbled and revealed a giant black hole.
He didn't use any Qi with this punch. It was purely his physique. Despite this, his punch still shattered the space. From this, it became obvious just how powerful he was right now!
Between the meditational and foundational levels, the difference between stages wasn't that big. But when one reaches the completion level, the difference is huge.
Not only does the spiritual energy increase in quantity and quality, but the physique and the soul also improve greatly. In other words, it was an improvement in all aspects!
Plus, it wasn't just a little bit stronger, it was a huge improvement!
"Not bad. My physique has improved by a lot. My overall battling abilities have increased." Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction. He was in a good mood.
Though because of his inner demon, he almost died during this breakthrough. But as long as he reached the peak of the completion level, everything was worth it.
Not only did this mean his capabilities had increased, it also meant he was one step closer to the undefeatable realm of the completion level. He was also one step closer to the original level.
"Not bad. Unless it's a rare genius who reached the undefeatable realm of the completion level, nobody is your opponent." The mysterious man complimented. His eyes flickered with shock.
He originally thought Ling Xian would need at least 20 years to break through. He didn't think Ling Xian would've used 10 years. Of course, he was surprised.
"I have to thank you. Or else my soul would've been destroyed." Ling Xian revealed a faint smile and paid his respect to the mysterious man to show his appreciation.
The reason why he was able to suppress his inner demon and successfully break through was mostly because of the Incantation of a Calm Heart. However, the mysterious man did help out a little.
Though his Incantation of a Calm Soul couldn't suppress his inner demon, if he didn't help out, Ling Xian may not have remembered to use the Incantation of a Calm Heart.
Therefore, he naturally felt grateful towards this mysterious man.
"There's no need for that. I only contributed a little. The reason why you can suppress your inner demons is because of your own ability. "
The mysterious man shook his head as his eyes flashed with curiosity, "I just didn't think you would know how to use the Incantation of a Calm Heart. Could it be that you are a disciple of the Leiyin Temple?"
"No, I acquired the Incantation of a Calm Heart by chance." Ling Xian shook his head.
His Tranquil Heart Mantra originated from a mysterious nun. If it was related to the Thunder Temple, then it should be the nun. It had nothing to do with him.
"No relation?"
The man frowned for a moment before relaxing his brows. He said with a playful smile, "Then you have to be more careful. Those bald donkeys value inheritance very much. If I find out that you know how to use the Tranquil Heart Mantra, one of the Nine Great Mantras, I will definitely not show any mercy and erase your memory of the Tranquil Heart Mantra. "
"Erase memories?" Ling Xian couldn't help but frown.
The Thunder Temple was a famous transcendental force in the world. Naturally, there was no need to talk about its strength. Luckily, this House was not located in Yuezhou. Therefore, the probability of this happening was very low.
Therefore, he ignored this and grinned, "If soldiers come, I will use arms to counter them. If water comes, I will use earth to block it."
"You sure are open-minded."
The mysterious man grinned and thought about it, "If you want to thank me, then stay here and chat with me for a few decades. Let me pass my boredom."
"No, I don't have time to chat with you."
Ling Xian rejected right away. Though he sealed off his hearing, he could sense that this man had been chattering non-stop.
If he had to chat with this man, he would go crazy even if it was just one day, let alone a few decades.
"Tsk, tsk, the morals of the world are degenerating and the hearts of the people are not what they used to be. Just now, you said you wanted to thank me. Why can't you even fulfill such a small request? "The man chuckled. There was no anger on his face.
He never planned on asking for a favor from Ling Xian. Plus, he didn't think he would be able to help the man before him.
After all, his Incantation of a Calm Soul merely suppressed him for a few seconds before losing its effect.
"That is not a small request. Chatting with a chatterbox like you is the same as starting a war with an original leveled cultivator."
Ling Xian shook his head with a smile, "But since I said I wanted to thank you, I will not go back on my words. Plus, it will be a surprise gift for you."
"Then I would like to hear what a small Core Formation Stage cultivator like you can bring out to surprise me."
The man's interest was piqued. But after hearing Ling Xian's next statement, his interest turned into laughter.
"I will help you lift the seal."
Ling Xian's white robe was fluttering in the wind. He had a smile on his lips and was unspeakably confident.
However, in the man's eyes, he was being stupid. He shook his head with a smile, "I understand your intention. But you can say that to me, but don't be so stupid outside. You will be laughed at."
"I know you don't believe me and think of it as a fantasy." The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up and he uttered out a statement full of certainty.
"But, I am being serious."
Hearing this, the man frowned, "Young man, you can talk big. But you need to know that I have been imprisoned here for thousands of years and I have been thinking about getting out. "
Pausing, he continued in a low voice, "So, I suggest you be careful with what you say. Don't give me hope and then make me hopeless."
"You will find out about that in the future. Of course, you can choose not to believe me. "
Ling Xian softly grinned, "However, I have to return your favor. So I promise you right here and now that I will get you out sooner or later."
"You sure are confident. Sadly, I don't dare to believe you."
The man softly sighed. He truly didn't want to believe Ling Xian because he was afraid he couldn't afford the price of being disappointed.
He has been imprisoned here for thousands of years. The reason why he has lasted until now, other than his unpredictable capabilities, was because of his belief.
If Ling Xian fails, then he won't be disappointed, he will be hopeless. If that happens, then he won't be able to persist any longer.
"I understand." Ling Xian softly nodded and didn't say anything else.
These things cannot be said with words, they have to be done with actions.
"It's good that you understand."
The man sighed, "Oh well, I know you won't be chatting with an antique like me. Go. If you have the time and are willing, you can bring me some good wine. I am craving it. "
"Okay, I will remember that."
Ling Xian softly grinned and paid his respect, "Then I will be leaving."
Then, the Fire Taming Pearl above his head began to emit light and a path appeared above him.
Then, Ling Xian leaped into the air and headed towards the mouth of the volcano.
Along the way, all the flames automatically retreated. He truly was like the reincarnation of the God of Fire.
