Seven Layers of Restriction
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn Envoy Qing Feng felt Gu Xuan's burning gaze and smiled proudly, "This God Killing Bone Spear is the strongest treasure of the old master. It has barely reached the level of Medium Earth Rank!"
"Is this something to be proud of?" Gu Xuan cursed in his heart. He was only interested in this Spirit Treasure because he was weak at the moment. However, the Flame Devil was already at the peak of the Emperor Level. Yet, he was still using a middle-grade Earth Rank Spirit Treasure.
Due to the huge difference in power between Earth Rank treasures, they were divided into High Rank, Medium Rank, and Low Rank.
Although the Flame Demon Ancient Mansion was valuable, it was only Low Rank Earth Rank due to its huge size. However, this God Killing Bone Spear was Medium Earth Rank.
In fact, it was not only Earth Rank, but also Mortal Rank and Heaven Rank.
Among the Mortal Rank treasures, the city's spirit treasures that Gu Xuan had plundered were only of the Mortal Rank Low Grade. However, the spirit treasures used by some Honorable Realm martial artists were basically of the Earth Rank Middle Grade. As for the black metal piece that Gu Xuan had, it had already surpassed the Upper Grade and reached the peak of the Mortal Rank.
As for the Sky-Ripping Hand, this treasure was originally High Rank Mortal Rank, but when combined with Gu Xuan's Star Picking Hand, it could exert power that was not inferior to the black iron plate.
"Medium Earth Rank!"
Gu Xuan grabbed the bone spear and poured his soul power into it. It instantly recognized him as its master.
Whoosh!
Whoosh! Gu Xuan poured his flame power into it and waved the bone spear. It turned into a sky full of afterimages and shot out.
"The power of this bone spear …" Gu Xuan was surprised, "Isn't it a little too weak?"
Gu Xuan was now a one-star Martial King, but with the Magic Weapon Tactics and the supreme flame as the origin, he could fight with a five-star Martial King. With the black iron piece, the Sky-tearing Hand, he was not inferior to a seven-star Martial King.
However, with this bone spear, Gu Xuan could only exert the power of a Six Star King Level warrior, which was the same as a High Rank Mortal Rank treasure.
"Master, you also feel surprised?" Envoy Qing Feng smiled, "Old Master Yan Mo is a Peak Martial Emperor after all. Although there is no way to obtain a Peak Earth Rank Spirit Treasure, and as for a Heaven Rank Spirit Treasure, it is still possible to obtain a High Rank Spirit Treasure."
Gu Xuan nodded. That was the truth. An Earth Tier High Level Soul Treasure was worth at most a hundred Fire Condensing Pills. Moreover, it was not that valuable. As long as one wanted it, they could get it immediately.
"However, the reason why the old master didn't waste any money to purchase a high-grade earth-rank spirit treasure was because of this God Slaying Bone Spear. Master, you've just come into contact with it, so you can't feel the wonders of this bone spear. In reality, this bone spear's strength is ordinary, but it contains seven layers of restrictions!"
"Oh?" Gu Xuan's eyes revealed some surprise. He carefully probed with his soul power and found that there were indeed layers of restrictions inside.
"These restrictions are the source of the bone spear's power. If the restrictions are not activated, this God Slaying Bone Spear is only a Middle Rank Mortal Rank Spirit Treasure with a slightly harder divine material. However, after activating the first layer of restrictions, the bone spear's power can reach High Rank Mortal Rank. The second layer of restrictions can reach Peak Mortal Rank. The third layer of restrictions can reach half a step to Earth Rank, and so on. As long as it can reach the seventh layer of restrictions, this bone spear can exert the power of a Peak Earth Rank Spirit Treasure!"
Envoy Qing Feng sighed and shook her head, "However, the use of these restrictions requires a strong understanding of martial arts. It is not a small matter. Ordinary people can only use the fifth layer, which is Middle Rank Earth Rank, so it is judged as a Middle Rank Earth Rank Spirit Treasure. However, the old master can use the sixth layer of restrictions, which is comparable to a High Rank Earth Rank Spirit Treasure!"
"Is that so?" A smile appeared on Gu Xuan's face. Since these restrictions could only be mastered by martial dao, it was the best thing for Gu Xuan.
In terms of talent, a genius like Gu Xingyun was several times stronger than Gu Xuan. However, in terms of combat power and martial arts, Gu Xuan was the best in the entire Burning Sky Continent!
"The test that the old master set is also related to this God Slaying Bone Spear. Master can get ten thousand Fire-condensing Elixirs if he masters the first layer of restrictions. Master can get a hundred thousand Fire-condensing Elixirs if he masters the second layer of restrictions. All the way to the fourth layer of restrictions, he can get ten million Fire-condensing Elixirs if he masters the fifth layer of restrictions. When master successfully masters the sixth layer of restrictions, he can get all the treasures in the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion."
Envoy Qing Feng introduced respectfully.
"Don't I need the seventh layer?" Gu Xuan asked with a smile.
"That's not necessary. Even the old master, who is such a talented person, can only reach the sixth layer. The seventh layer is too illusory. It is even unknown whether he can achieve it. The old master will not force it," Envoy Qing Feng said again.
"Alright, then I'll break through a few layers of restrictions now." Gu Xuan said immediately. He was lacking Fire-condensing Elixirs to break through. Since he could get Fire-condensing Elixirs as a reward by breaking through the restrictions of the Bone Spear, Gu Xuan was too lazy to delay.
"Now?" Envoy Qing Feng was stunned. He immediately shook his head and laughed, "Master, you are too hasty. Since the old master set these tests, if they can be completed immediately, what kind of test would it be? Master can slowly use the God Slaying Bone Spear and accumulate strength. As for breaking through forcefully, it is just a waste of time. "
Gu Xuan shook his head and smiled. "I'd better give it a try. Who knows, I might actually succeed."
"Do as you wish." Envoy Qing Feng's face was full of helplessness. After this period of contact, he also understood that Gu Xuan had a stubborn character. It was the same when he accepted the inheritance of the Flame Demon. No matter how he persuaded, Gu Xuan was indifferent.
This time Qing Feng also knew that her persuasion was ineffective thus she was too lazy to say more. After Gu Xuan suffered a setback, she understood that even though the restriction breakthrough was inseparable from the martial understanding, but it was not completely dependent on the martial understanding.
Having a strong understanding did not mean that the restrictions could be broken easily. At least there was a need to familiarize with the process and it was not something that could be done overnight. Even his old master Flame Demon, who was already at the Emperor level when he got the God Slaying Bone Spear, took a long time to comprehend the first layer of restriction.
Gu Xuan sat down cross-legged and placed the God Slaying Bone Spear across his legs. He closed his eyes and poured his soul power into the Bone Spear.
Seven layers of restrictions, representing seven different attack methods.
The first layer of restriction was "Spear Shadow". The spear was like a shadow, which was the method that Gu Xuan experimented with previously. But it was much more exquisite than Gu Xuan's casual use. It could reach dozens of illusions and each one had 10% of the power.
The second layer of restriction was "Return to One". At this level, not only could it split dozens of spear shadows, it could also combine these spear shadows into one. But the power was several times stronger than a normal spear.
"Let's start from the first layer of restriction, Spear Shadow."
After understanding the seven layers of restriction one by one, Gu Xuan stood up and his eyes revealed a trace of sharpness. He grabbed the Bone Spear and stood still.
Envoy Qing Feng stood aside and her heart was filled with helplessness. It was easy for Gu Xuan to get into the zone. But to be able to comprehend the restriction so quickly, how high was his martial understanding?
"Spear Shadow!"
Suddenly, Gu Xuan's body moved. He held the Bone Spear in his hand and stabbed out. Suddenly, dozens of illusions were formed. None of them were illusions but real. Although they only had 10% of the power of the complete spear, they were real.
"This!"
Feeling the sharp aura from the dozens of spear shadows, Envoy Qing Feng's eyes were wide open.
"I felt wrong. These are real illusions. Could it be that Gu Xuan really performed the first layer of restriction? But how long has it been? "
Envoy Qing Feng was extremely shocked. The first layer of restriction was not difficult. Even if it was given to a Xuan level martial artist to cultivate, he could master it after a period of time. But to master it, there was a process. How could he master it after just comprehending it?
"Return to one!"
At this moment, Gu Xuan bellowed again. The sky full of spear shadows suddenly merged into one. The merged spear shadows were more tyrannical than the Bone Spear itself. It emitted a dazzling light and was exquisite and clear.
"Penetrate!"
Gu Xuan let out another low cry. The spear shadow changed again. The originally dazzling light completely dimmed. Finally, it became pitch-black. It no longer had its previous sharpness. However, it gave off a mighty aura that could pierce through the heavens.
The third layer of restriction, penetrate! It could pierce through everything!
"This, this!"
Envoy Qing Feng had not recovered from the shock of Gu Xuan performing the first layer of restriction. When she saw Gu Xuan performing the second and third layers of restriction, she was already dumbfounded.
Her master, Yan Mo, when he was at the Emperor level, it took him half a year to perform the third layer of restriction. Gu Xuan had only comprehended it for a short period of time. It was not even a quarter of an hour and he was able to perform the third layer of restriction consecutively. What kind of concept was this?
Gu Xuan withdrew the power of flame and the condensed spear shadows dispersed with a "bang".
"My mastery speed is not bad right?" Gu Xuan looked at Envoy Qing Feng and asked with a smile.
"It's okay." Envoy Qing Feng nodded in a daze. She was already speechless. Her heart was extremely bitter. For a freak like Gu Xuan, it was really impossible to use common sense to estimate.
"I will leave these 111,000 Fire Condensing Pills with you first. When I break through the third layer of restriction, I will reward you with another piece." Gu Xuan said with a smile.
Although breaking through to the Two Star King level was not as exaggerated as breaking through to the next realm, it was still a breakthrough in the King level. According to Gu Xuan's estimation, it would be less than 800,000 Fire Condensing Pills. 100,000 Fire Condensing Pills would not be of much use to him.
"It seems that the restriction in the Bone Spear is not that difficult. I should be able to break through the fourth layer in a few days. With more than one million Fire Condensing Pills, it is enough for me to break through to the Two Star King level."
