On the stage, Yi Yun's Yuan Qi was circulating. His aura was constantly rising. The Thousand Army Saber was gently humming as saber intent howled out. Yi Yun's energy was constantly condensing like a surging tide!
Seeing Yi Yun in this state, Chu Xiaoran stroked her long hair that had been sliced apart by the saber Qi. She took a light breath, "Your saber is really strong … but, I still want to defeat you!"
Chu Xiaoran said seriously. She stretched out her hands and her soft sword was held horizontally. A bluish-white glow circulated on the sword's edge.
As Yuan Qi condensed, the sword was quickly covered in a layer of frost.
The frost increased and covered Chu Xiaoran's sword and hands, before spreading to her entire body.
Bone-chilling cold Qi surged towards them. Even though the crowd was far away, they could feel the cold penetrating their bones.
"Frost Qi? Ice-elemental Yuan Qi? "
Many people were stunned. A warrior's Yuan Qi was divided into many attributes. It was not strange for someone to have frost ice Yuan Qi, but this was not enough to be Chu Xiaoran's hidden strength. Elemental Yuan Qi was not that strong …
Ice-elemental Yuan Qi was not surprising. Fang Jihai, who was previously defeated by Chu Xiaoran, was a fire-elemental warrior.
Yuan Qi with an elemental Yuan Qi was easier to transform into an attack than non-elemental Yuan Qi, but its strength was not much stronger!
Just when everyone was confused, the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi began to condense behind Chu Xiaoran, condensing into a phantom. This phantom was in the shape of a white wolf.
This white wolf was huge. It was about 4-5 meters tall and 7-8 meters long. It stood majestically behind Chu Xiaoran, giving it a strong visual impact.
"Icy plains Snow Wolf! Ice-elemental desolate beast … This is … manifestation of Yuan Qi? "
Manifestation of Yuan Qi was to release one's Yuan Qi and condense it into a physical form. This was something that almost all the Tai Ah Divine City's Purple Blood warriors could do.
Qiuniu's final attack, Sky Ox Tyrannical Blood, also used manifestation of Yuan Qi, releasing a raging ox phantom image. However, it was destroyed by Yi Yun's saber attack. Want to see books w ~ w 1 ~ k 1 ~ k 1 ~ k 1 ~ k 1 ~ k 1 ~ s 1 ~ s 1 ~ h book u ◇ book c ◇ c
In the Tai Ah Divine City. It was not strange for Yuan Qi to take shape.
However … some of the newbies noticed that the white wolf behind Chu Xiaoran was different. It had a trace of indescribable spirituality, as if it was mentally connected to Chu Xiaoran. It even seemed to have evolved from Chu Xiaoran's soul and contained Chu Xiaoran's life source.
Furthermore, this white wolf contained surging Power of Desolates. This was a power that only desolate beasts possessed. At this moment, it appeared in the Yuan Qi phantom image behind Chu Xiaoran. This was even more surprising. It was as if the white wolf was not condensed from Chu Xiaoran's Yuan Qi, but a true desolate beast!
Could it be …
The rookies were not sure, but the veteran cultivators had already confirmed that this was not the manifestation of Yuan Qi, but a higher realm that only Yuan foundation realm warriors could use — Aspect Totem!
"Is it really an Aspect Totem? How could this be! "
People found it hard to believe.
In the Divine wilderness, humans and desolate beasts were enemies. Desolate beasts often ate humans, and from time to time, there would be beast hordes. Even large cities with millions of people would be destroyed by the beast hordes.
Even so, there were times when human warriors could not do without desolate beasts. They could borrow strength from desolate beasts. This had to be explained from the Aspect Totem.
The Aspect Totem was the symbol of a Yuan foundation realm warrior.
When a warrior was at the peak of the Purple Blood realm. By condensing all the blood essence in the body into the Dantian, it would form the blood foundation. This was the Yuan foundation!
To build a tall building. One had to first build a solid foundation. The Yuan foundation was the foundation of a warrior's martial arts journey. This step was extremely important.
And after condensing the Yuan foundation, a warrior's ability to absorb Heaven Earth Yuan Qi would increase by another level. It was far from what a Purple Blood realm warrior could compare with.
With this ability to gather energy, warriors could go out into the wilderness to hunt desolate beasts. By condensing the soul and Power of Desolates from the desolate beasts they killed, they could condense a symbolic totem divine item that belonged to them in the Yuan foundation.
When fighting with others, they could summon it, turning it into a huge phantom image to increase their strength. This totem divine item was called the Aspect Totem.
Once the Aspect Totem was condensed, it would accompany a warrior. It would become a symbol, and it was also an important part of a warrior's combat strength.
Every person's Aspect Totem was different. It could constantly grow, evolve, or even mutate.
Warriors above the Yuan foundation realm would usually conjure their Aspect Totem to increase their strength in a death battle with an evenly matched opponent. This was also the symbol of a Yuan foundation realm warrior going all out in battle.
Hence, in the Tai Ah Divine City, there was a Heaven roll of honor. Its importance was above that of the Earth roll of honor. The Heaven roll of honor was ranked according to the number of desolate beasts killed by different warriors. The rewards for the Heaven roll of honor was also the highest among the three rolls.
Those warriors who tried to enter the Heaven roll of honor would spend large amounts of time in the Divine wilderness killing desolate beasts every month. Firstly, it was to earn points, and secondly, it was to condense and strengthen their Aspect Totem.
The Aspect Totem could only absorb the desolate beasts they killed with their own hands. And it had to be done within a short period of time after the desolate beast died, or else the Power of Desolates and blood in the desolate beast's body would dissipate.
Before the Aspect Totem reached a bottleneck, the more desolate beasts killed, the stronger the condensed Aspect Totem would be!
Hence, the veteran cultivators in the Tai Ah Divine City would constantly hunt desolate beasts. They could increase their experience and earn resources, killing two birds with one stone.
As for Chu Xiaoran, in the three months since she came to the Tai Ah Divine City, she did not do much rookie chores, as her strength far exceeded other rookies. She went straight to the Divine wilderness to hunt desolate beasts!
Compared to other rookies, she had already won at the starting line.
Originally, people thought that Chu Xiaoran would at most earn a few dragon scale runes. No one expected that she had condensed an Aspect Totem!
"She … Could she be a Yuan foundation realm warrior?"
"How is that possible!? Many of the cultivators who came to the Tai Ah Divine City for 3-4 years have yet to break through to the Yuan foundation realm. Although Chu Xiaoran's talent is heaven-defying, she shouldn't have broken through so early. Besides, breaking through to the Yuan foundation realm too early would result in insufficient energy accumulation. It might not be beneficial. "
There was a flurry of discussion. In the seats of honor, Elder Jian Ge stroked his beard and looked at Chu Xiaoran in surprise, "This is the 'Aspect Before Yuan' … It's been a while since the Tai Ah Divine City has had such a junior …"
An Aspect Totem could only be condensed at the Yuan foundation realm. But in this world, there were always exceptions. Some people had a strong affinity with Heaven Earth Yuan Qi and the Power of Desolates, and they had extraordinary perceptivity. Yet, they could condense their own Aspect Totem at the Purple Blood realm!
This Aspect Totem was known as the Aspect Before Yuan.
To be able to use a tiny portion of a Yuan foundation realm warrior's strength without being a Yuan foundation realm warrior's, it was obvious how strong one's combat power was.
Many geniuses specialized in one area, so it was difficult to be all-rounded. For example, Qin Haotian, who had extraordinary sword skills, had yet to condense an Aspect Before Yuan!
This meant that Chu Xiaoran had extraordinary talent when it came to condensing an Aspect Totem!
An Aspect Totem was an important part of a Divine wilderness warrior's combat power after they reached the Yuan foundation realm.
Aspect Totems naturally had strong and weak ones. For the same desolate beast, when different warriors absorbed its Power of Desolates, the Aspect Totem condensed would differ greatly. This had to do with a person's talent and aptitude.
And Chu Xiaoran was no doubt one of the best.
In the future, when she reached a higher realm, she would have the upper hand against warriors of the same level. It was equivalent to her using an Aspect Totem of a higher realm to fight with others.
Cang Yan said, "To be precise, it is not a complete Aspect Before Yuan. It is only the embryonic form of the Aspect Before Yuan. But this is already quite impressive! I think there is a need to bring this young lady into the sword tomb. "
Cang Yan's eyes were filled with excitement. His expression was like a tomb robber seeing a rare treasure.
Elder Jian Ge only sighed and surprisingly did not object. People who could condense an Aspect Before Yuan were all people with extraordinary perceptivity. Indeed, she should enter the sword tomb.
Jian Ge said, "This young lady is also very sensitive to ice-elemental laws. Her Aspect Totem is also ice-elemental … She must have gained insight into a portion of the ice-elemental laws. If not, it would not be easy to condense the embryonic form of an Aspect Totem in the Purple Blood realm."
An Aspect Totem could increase a warrior's strength. It was not as simple as increasing the strength of the energy.
There was another important point, which was to increase a warrior's insight into a particular nomological energy.
For example, Chu Xiaoran had a deep understanding of Hard-Soft and Frost Ice laws.
The Aspect Totem she chose was ice-elemental.
She constantly hunted ice-elemental desolate beasts. After these ice-elemental desolate beasts died, the Power of Desolates they emitted was also inclined towards ice-elemental.
After Chu Xiaoran absorbed the ice-elemental Power of Desolates, she would integrate it into her Aspect Totem. This way, her Aspect Totem would also be ice-elemental.
As such, when Chu Xiaoran fought, with the help of her Aspect Totem, she could use her ice-elemental Yuan Qi to increase the effects.
It could be imagined that Chu Xiaoran had brought a real ice-elemental desolate beast that was telepathically connected to her to fight Yi Yun.
It was equivalent to Yi Yun fighting one against two.
"Aspect Totem … This is the first time I've seen such a thing … So, this is what it looks like …"
Yi Yun had never systematically studied martial arts. Even before he left the Lian tribal clan, Yi Yun did not know what the realm above the Purple Blood realm was called.
Later on, he learned of the Yuan foundation realm, but Yi Yun did not know what was the symbol of a Yuan foundation realm warrior, what special powers they had, or how to cultivate from the Purple Blood realm to the Yuan foundation realm.
Including Yuan foundation realm warriors, Yi Yun had not seen many of them before he came to the Tai Ah Divine City. Besides Lin Xintong, Yi Yun had never seen the others fight.
The only time he fought with Lin Xintong was because of the huge difference in strength, so Lin Xintong could not use her Aspect Totem.
