In Little Hei's eyes, the conflict between the two countries was not a big deal at all. Yang Wu becoming stronger was the most important thing.
Yang Wu did not think too much about it. With Old Tortoise here, Huangfu Mingyu and Huangfu Mingyu would not be able to cause any trouble. He even magnanimously untied the whip on Huangfu Mingyu's body.
Huangfu Mingyu looked at Yang Wu with an extremely melancholy gaze, as if he was the most despicable man in the world.
Yang Wu pretended not to see it. He was thinking about how Little Man and Huangfu Mingyu could be sisters with such a huge difference in status.
He suspected that Little Man was the abandoned ugly duckling. If that was the case, he had to avenge Little Man.
Yang Wu carried Skinny Monkey and followed Little Hei to the other side of the pool. He let Old Tortoise protect him and also blocked Huangfu Taigeng and Huangfu Mingyu's line of sight. He was ready to undergo the second extreme tempering.
Huangfu Taigeng was very open-minded. He sat beside Huangfu Mingyu and said softly, "Princess Ah Yu, you've suffered."
"Eighth Grandpa, I'm sorry. I've dragged you into this," Huangfu Mingyu said guiltily.
"Silly child, you're a princess. You're not allowed to say such things. You're the future successor of the empress who can reach the third tier of Brute Force," Huangfu Taigeng said kindly. After a pause, he added, "It's hard to say whether it's a blessing or a curse."
"Eighth Grandpa, what do you mean?" Huangfu Mingyu was confused.
"It's nothing. Just stay here." Huangfu Taigeng didn't want to say anything else. His old eyes looked at Yang Wu, who was leaving, thoughtfully.
Yang Wu did not think that they would be safe with Old Tortoise protecting them. He still had to return to King City and take back everything that belonged to him. He might be able to bring Old Tortoise back with him, but King City was a very dangerous place. There might be someone even more powerful than Old Tortoise hiding in the royal family. He did not dare to do something that was against the law.
"Little Hei, do you have any ideas on how to make Skinny Monkey get better?" Yang Wu asked Little Hei.
"Leave him here for now. Someone must have searched his soul. We need to find some soul-related herbs to recover his soul. For now, feed him a Healing Pill to preserve his vitality. I'll concoct some Body Nourishing Pills to ensure that he doesn't die. Once we find some soul-related herbs, we'll concoct a Soul Restoring Pill," Little Hei said.
"Where can I find Soul-type herbs?" Yang Wu asked.
"Soul-type herbs are very rare, and you need to be at least a Medicine King to be effective. It's hard to find them," Little Hei replied.
"So if we can't find them, he'll never wake up?" Yang Wu asked anxiously.
"Don't worry. No matter how hard it is, this Immortal Emperor will find a way," Little Hei said calmly. Then, it changed the topic and said, "Kid, you're about to open three hundred and sixty-five acupoints?"
"Yes, I'm just a few more away," Yang Wu nodded.
"Then do you know that the human body has a total of seven hundred and twenty acupoints?" Little Hei asked again.
Yang Wu shook his head, indicating that he did not know.
Little Hei continued, "You're just an ignorant kid. Don't think that you'll be more powerful just because you've opened three hundred and sixty-five acupoints and increased your cultivation level. For the second and third stages of extreme tempering, I want you to open all seven hundred and twenty acupoints and all your meridians. Then, you'll be able to break through to the next stage. Only then will you be able to unleash the full potential of your body. When that time comes, fighting above your cultivation level will be a piece of cake!"
'Am I not able to fight above my cultivation level now?' Yang Wu thought to himself.
Little Hei seemed to have seen through Yang Wu's thoughts. It immediately sneered and said, "Don't think that you're very powerful. If you meet those true prodigies, they'll only need to use ten percent of their strength to defeat you."
Yang Wu was unconvinced. "I don't believe it."
"Then why don't we compete? My current cultivation level is actually about the same as yours, "Little Hei said with narrowed eyes.
Yang Wu recalled the scene of Old Tortoise being burned by Little Hei and immediately admitted defeat. "I admit defeat. I'll listen to you. I know you're doing this for my own good. You're afraid that I'll become arrogant. I'll do my best."
"Looks like you're not too stupid after all!" Little Hei said with satisfaction. Then, she said, "Go and cultivate under the waterfall. Come back when you've perfected all three hundred and sixty-five apertures."
Yang Wu nodded. He placed Skinny Monkey aside and fed him a pill. Then, he walked towards the waterfall that was hanging upside down.
The rumbling sound of the water was deafening. The mighty momentum of the waterfall had the power of millions of catties. Such a force of nature was comparable to the attack of a top-notch warrior. Whoever entered the waterfall would probably be smashed to death by the impact.
Little Hei asked Yang Wu to cultivate under the waterfall. How could this not be a kind of extreme tempering?
Yang Wu walked along the mountain wall. The ground was smooth and slippery. He almost fell several times. It was only after he used the Dragon Tortoise Water Suppressing Stance that he could walk on the water as if it was flat ground.
Soon, Yang Wu arrived under the waterfall. He was hit by the powerful momentum and fell into the pool. His head was dizzy and he felt as if his brain was about to explode. It was extremely uncomfortable. Blood was flowing out of his seven apertures. It was obvious how terrifying the momentum was.
Yang Wu lay in the water. After circulating the Supreme Nine Mysteries Formula to ease his dizziness, he climbed out of the pool again and walked towards the waterfall.
Yang Wu was knocked down again. He felt the blood and Qi in his body churning. He spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.
He still did not give up. He climbed up for the third time and fell down again.
The fourth time!
The fifth time!
… …
After the fifteenth time, Yang Wu relied on his last breath and the Dragon Tortoise Water Suppressing Stance to stand firmly under the waterfall. The powerful momentum of the impact did not diminish. It was powerful and domineering. It came wave after wave. It was truly terrifying.
Yang Wu guarded the Celestial Court tightly. He used his spiritual willpower to withstand the endless roaring power. He also used the Dragon Tortoise Water Suppressing Stance to continuously absorb the power of the water here. The Supreme Nine Mysteries Formula spun rapidly in his body again and again. He adjusted his strength to the limit to withstand the impact.
This time, Yang Wu held on for seven or eight minutes. The power of the Peach Core Dantian in his body was exhausted. He was once again washed into the pool.
Yang Wu lay in the water and could not get up for a long time. However, his heart was like a mirror. He seemed to have understood something. "When the water is concentrated on the impact, my strength is not enough. I can cultivate my endurance and endurance here, as well as resist the power of the force."
Yang Wu recovered at an astonishing speed while lying in the water. Soon, he ran back to the waterfall to cultivate.
Not long after, Yang Wu was washed into the pool again. However, not long after, he got up again and resisted the waterfall.
Huangfu Taigeng and Huangfu Mingyu saw this scene. A trace of shock flashed across their eyes. They had seen many people who cultivated desperately, but this was the first time they saw someone who was so ruthless to himself.
"If this child grows up, he will not be inferior to those geniuses of the country's guardian forces," Huangfu Taigeng exclaimed.
If he was not sure if Yang Wu was from the Great Xia Dynasty, he would suspect that Yang Wu was a disciple of one of those guardian forces. Only such a disciple could summon such a powerful turtle demon.
"Are those guardian forces' geniuses very powerful?" Huangfu Mingyu asked. "Of course.
There is Mount Emei in the Great Xia Dynasty. Most of them only recruit female disciples. All of them are like fairies, flying in the sky and burrowing into the ground. They are much stronger than ordinary kings. Our Barbarian Tribe does not have any guardian forces, but we are under the jurisdiction of the Sacred Flame Sect. The Sacred Flame Sect is not inferior to the fairies of Mount Emei. This time, we let you come out to train so that you can participate in the Sacred Flame Sect's disciple selection ceremony in a year. As long as you become a disciple of the Sacred Flame Sect and break away from the secular world, you will have a chance to be like our ancestors and become a saint respected by thousands. "
"Can I really do it?" Huangfu Mingyu asked longingly.
"Of course. If you can't do it, no one in our Barbarian Tribe can." Huangfu Taigeng smiled.
"But will he really let us go?" Huangfu Mingyu looked at Yang Wu with a worried expression.
Huangfu Taigeng did not answer this question.
…
At this moment, Shi Shafeng had already spread out his Profound Wings and quickly flew back to the Barbarian Imperial Court.
Shi Shafeng was a high-level Barbarian King. He could fly for a long time, but he was already seriously injured. With his usual speed, he would need at most a day to return to the Imperial Court. However, this time, he used almost three days to return to the Imperial Court.
The Barbarian Imperial Court was very simple. Many unique large tents were set up on the flat grassland. Here, cows and sheep could be seen walking around casually and eating grass. Giant elephants, tigers, and leopards were in groups and lived together in peace. The Barbarians were accompanied by cows and horses, and the elephants and tigers were neighbors. They lived together in peace and harmony.
The Barbarians were warm and hospitable. At the same time, they were brave and aggressive. This was the blood that flowed in their bones and would never change.
The Barbarian Tribe's geographical location and climate were not good. There were frequent storms and attacks from other wild beasts or spirit demons. They did not have any dangerous places to defend and could only rely on their own two hands to fight for a place that belonged to them.
The Grand Xia Empire was a prosperous and fertile land. The Barbarians had invaded many times because they wanted to expand their territory and give their people a better place to live.
Unfortunately, although the people of the Grand Xia Empire looked weak, they had an endless supply of geniuses. This caused the Barbarians' invasion to be thwarted.
The current Barbarian King was a man of great talent and bold vision. After many years of rest and recuperation, he was already prepared to launch a fierce attack on the Grand Xia Empire in one or two years when the time was ripe. He must take over the Grand Xia Empire's territory.
In the Imperial Court's tent, a tall and mighty middle-aged Barbarian sat on a tiger-skinned throne. He wore a crown on his head and golden armor on his body. A Golden Lion King lay at his feet. His eyes were filled with arrogance. Needless to say, this was the current Barbarian King, Huangfu Zhanxiong.
Huangfu Zhanxiong was a man of great talent and bold vision. He was also an Emperor who was infatuated with love. He only had one beloved wife and did not take in any concubines. Many years ago, his wife gave birth to a pair of twin daughters for him. Unfortunately, not long after, his eldest daughter was captured. Until now, he had not found the culprit nor his lost daughter. This was the root of his illness.
Fortunately, not long ago, Huangfu Taigeng told him that his elder sister, Huangfu Mingzhu, was still alive. Moreover, it caused a commotion in the clan. In the end, it was confirmed that his daughter was in the Grand Xia Empire. He could not wait to bathe the Grand Xia Empire in blood.
Unfortunately, before he could give the order to attack the Grand Xia, he heard Shi Shafeng hurriedly report that his youngest daughter, Huangfu Mingyu, was captured by the Grand Xia people. He was so angry that he roared on the spot, "Shi Shafeng, you are one of the strongest warriors of my tribe. You actually failed to protect Princess Mingyu. You deserve to be beheaded!"
