Chapter 464: Lin San Breaks Through
🕑 Added 2024-12-01 14:30:19 +0000 UTCAt this moment, Lin San continued to sit cross-legged, focusing on his cultivation. As his technique operated, the energy from the surrounding space kept pouring into his body.
The immense energy contained within the sixth floor was continuously being absorbed by both the Ye Fan Sword and Lin San.
【Absorbing special energy, gained 100 evolution points】
【Absorbing special energy, gained 100 evolution points】
…
With the passive skill [Devour] automatically in use, the notifications of accumulated evolution points appeared one after another.
Moreover, as the surrounding energy became more concentrated, the Ye Fan Sword absorbed energy at an even faster rate. Now, it wasn't merely absorbing 100 points per second anymore.
"It seems like the energy in each layer is fixed and doesn't increase continuously," Ye Fan murmured to himself, as if sensing something.
Just like on the fifth floor, as the energy was being absorbed, the amount of energy in the space noticeably decreased.
From this observation, it appeared that each floor held a finite amount of energy, and once it was depleted, it wouldn’t replenish quickly.
As Lin San's cultivation method continued to circulate, one could clearly see strands of powerful energy surging within his body. These energies formed a massive projection of a golden crow.
Time passed slowly, and as Lin San and the Ye Fan Sword continued to absorb the surrounding energy, the energy in the sixth floor had grown significantly weaker.
"Hmm? The energy's all gone?" Lin San slowly opened his eyes.
He could now clearly sense that the surrounding space had been almost entirely drained of energy. Moreover, the energy being gathered by the training tower was no longer enough to compensate for the previous depletion.
"So, it seems that the energy in each floor is only this concentrated because it's been accumulating over a long period of time," Lin San muttered to himself.
Upon closer inspection, he noticed that as the energy in the sixth floor was absorbed, the energy radiating from the stairs below had also diminished significantly. This meant that for others trying to climb up, it would likely become much easier now.
"The energy I've absorbed still isn’t enough to break through to the Nine-Star Martial God," Lin San thought as he glanced at the stairs leading to the seventh floor.
After a brief hesitation, he decided to head upwards.
As soon as he set foot on the next set of stairs, an overwhelming force surged forward, nearly knocking him back. However, Lin San's strength had increased substantially, allowing him to quickly stabilize himself and continue his ascent to the seventh floor.
In a short time, he reached the seventh floor.
The energy on the seventh floor was even more concentrated than on the sixth.
Time flew by as Lin San absorbed the energy of this layer and moved on to the next.
And so it continued… until he reached the fifteenth floor!
Lin San had lost track of time, his only focus being to continuously absorb the dense energy from each floor before immediately moving to the next.
At this point, as Lin San sat cross-legged in meditation, the golden crow projection around his body became more and more distinct. Soon, golden flames erupted from his body!
"Huh?" Ye Fan watched with a look of surprise.
The golden flames emanating from Lin San's body were incredibly intense. The air around him seemed to warp due to the sheer heat of the flames.
"Is he about to break through?" Ye Fan murmured.
As the flames around Lin San intensified, the golden crow projection seemed to become solid. An overwhelming surge of energy erupted from his body.
Even the ground began to tremble.
"Ahhh!" Lin San suddenly opened his eyes and let out a loud roar.
His entire body was engulfed in flames, charring his skin until it turned black. His scorched skin peeled away, falling off in layers, as if he were undergoing a rebirth through fire!
Rumble!
At the same time, powerful lightning began striking from the sky outside.
These bolts of lightning tore through the sky, breaching the secret realm and crashing into the training tower.
The entire tower trembled violently under the barrage of these terrifying bolts of electricity.
"What’s happening?"
Many of the Martial Gods inside the tower, who had been meditating, abruptly opened their eyes, astonished.
"I think I hear thunder... someone's breaking through!"
Some of the Martial Gods quickly realized what was happening, their voices filled with shock.
None of them had expected someone to be breaking through within the training tower!
"Who would’ve thought you'd still face heavenly tribulation when breaking through here…"
"Quick, cultivate! We might be close to breaking through as well!"
The Martial Gods in the tower snapped back to their senses, immediately trying to absorb as much of the tower's energy as possible.
Meanwhile, on the fifteenth floor, the terrifying energy from the heavenly lightning had already struck Lin San's body!
"Even inside the tower, it can reach me…" Lin San clenched his teeth, enduring the bolts of electricity surging through his body.
Although he had a strong resistance to lightning, these heavenly bolts still caused him immense pain as they coursed through his body.
Gritting his teeth, Lin San continued circulating his internal energy, allowing the lightning to strike him relentlessly.
At the same time, the flames surrounding his body burned even more fiercely.
The fire seemed intent on consuming his entire body.
This was a necessary trial due to his cultivation technique, something he had to endure before breaking through.
There was no other way!
He could only push through with all his strength.
If he survived, he would break through and live.
If not, he would die.
"Ahhhh!"
Lin San roared as the energy inside him continued to surge outward. The lightning and fire ravaged his body, burning and blackening his flesh.
But soon, new flesh began to grow, replacing the damaged parts!
"Huh?"
At that moment, Ye Fan sensed something unusual and exclaimed in surprise.
