Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Chapter 780: Chapter 267: Thunder Pattern Golden Core (Part 3)

"Now that this matter is settled, what are your plans, Mr. Xiao?"

Ji Zitong’s clear voice called out.

"I’ll go with Mr. Bai to check out the Martial Alliance."

"The path of the Martial Dao becomes increasingly difficult as you progress. Secluding oneself to train and build in isolation doesn’t work. Only by joining a martial organization like the Martial Alliance can one hope to go further in the future."

Lin Zheyu pondered for a moment and then slowly spoke.

Based on Bai Lin’s introduction, the Martial Alliance seemed more like a martial arts association, a league for martial artists dedicated to the Martial Dao, pursuing the path of Immortal Martial.

The organization appeared to be relatively loose and not very restrictive, so joining it shouldn’t be a problem.

"Indeed, the path of the Martial Dao gets harder the further you go. Without like-minded friends to study and exchange ideas, it’s tough to make significant progress."

Ji Zitong nodded in agreement.

She was somewhat knowledgeable about martial arts and understood the difficulties, full of thorns, on this path.

However, while the path of martial arts is tough, it also possesses unique qualities. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have thrived and paved the way to realms comparable to the Golden Elixir Layer and the Shackled Realm.

After a brief exchange, the three of them fell into silence once more.

All around them were the sounds of demon roars, battle cries, and booming clashes, but they did not affect Lin Zheyu and his companions.

The energy fluctuations from the battle were isolated by the array set up on the ground.

Shoo~

Shoo shoo~~

Lin Zheyu calmed his mind, quickly absorbing the spiritual liquid to recover his qi blood energy.

An unknown aura surrounded him, intense to an alarming degree.

With this aura fortifying him, Lin Zheyu felt his spirit clearer than ever before.

With his mind at ease, Lin Zheyu found that his perception of the fluctuations of spatial power in the void had become much clearer.

"Huh, this mysterious aura has such effects!"

Lin Zheyu was quite surprised.

This aura swirling around him was like a Heavenly Dao buff, not only increasing the chance of obtaining rule fragments.

It also fortified Lin Zheyu, enhancing his state.

No wonder Lin Zheyu felt no fatigue despite battling for so long.

"Interesting."

"If only this mysterious buff could last for a long time."

Lin Zheyu couldn’t help but think.

With this buff, his comprehension of the spatial rule fluctuations in the void accelerated at least threefold, if not more.

But he knew, this state couldn’t last indefinitely.

When the Demon God Barrier completely transforms into demon soil, and this place becomes a bridgehead for the demon realm, the rule fragments descending will end this state.

"By the way, Miss Ji, if by chance we obtain a rule fragment, is it random?"

Lin Zheyu opened his eyes and asked curiously.

With the countless Heavenly Dao rules, it would be a big loss if one acquired a rule with little personal use by chance.

"No."

"The rule fragments obtained are generally closely related to the cultivator’s talents, cultivation techniques, compatibility, and so on."

"For example, Mr. Lei is most likely to acquire a thunder-type rule fragment, while Mr. Tuyuan a soil-type one."

Ji Zitong opened her eyes, smiling as she spoke.

"Hehe, we’ve killed far more demons this time than last, and even took down a giant dragon demon akin to the Golden Elixir Layer. I reckon all of us will obtain some rule fragments."

"As for the size of the rule fragment and how much one can comprehend, it depends on the individual."

Lei Yongtao opened his eyes, a hint of excitement in his gaze.

He had participated in demon hunts and rule fragment competitions more than once and was quite experienced in these matters.

"Do you need to comprehend it yourself?"

"Isn’t it automatically integrated into the divine soul once obtained, becoming one’s own comprehension?"

Lin Zheyu was taken aback and asked in some surprise.

"Of course one must comprehend it oneself, there’s no such thing as getting something for nothing in the world."

"Mr. Xiao, this must be your first time participating in such an event."

Lei Yongtao stared at Lin Zheyu, as if trying to see through him.

"Yes."

"I have been wholeheartedly immersed in martial arts until a few years ago when I began to venture out, so this is indeed my first time participating in such an event."

Lin Zheyu admitted directly.

He knew too little about the so-called rule fragments and the Demon God Barrier to pretend otherwise.

’Oh?’

’Could it be, this Xiao Yu is the descendant of some secret family or a reclusive expert?’

Both Lei Yongtao and Ji Zitong had this thought flash through their minds.

They didn’t probe further but just smiled and let the matter drop.

"Once you return this time, Mr. Lei, should you be able to confirm the Six-Thunder Pattern Golden Elixir?"

Ji Zitong looked at Lei Yongtao and asked with a smile.

"The Six-Thunder Pattern Golden Elixir is a bit challenging, but the Five-Thunder Pattern should be no problem." Lei Yongtao chuckled, full of pride on his face.

It was as if proving the Five-Thunder Pattern Golden Elixir was an extraordinary achievement.

Lin Zheyu silently watched from the side, hiding his curiosity within.

"Enough chit-chat, I need to keep working hard, I can’t lose to Mr. Xiao." Lei Yongtao chuckled, raising his eyebrows at Lin Zheyu.

With that, he grabbed his battle axe and stood up to leave.

"Wait for me, I feel I’ve recovered almost completely too."

Lin Zheyu also got up, saying with a smile.

"Huh?"

Lei Yongtao looked over in surprise, wearing a look as if to say, ’Are you kidding me?’

"Are you a humanoid beast, recovering so fast?" Lei Yongtao couldn’t help but say.

"I’ve cultivated a special cultivation technique, allowing me to recover a bit faster than ordinary martial artists." Lin Zheyu replied ambiguously.

"This is more than a bit faster; it’s much faster!"
