At the start of the game, you have one equipment slot; the effects of unequipping the equipment rema

"boom--!!"

With the equipment from the corpse of the Purple Lightning Bat Demon, a surge of boundless blood energy rushed in like a tsunami.

But Mu Yang remained as immovable as a mountain, silently closing his eyes and concentrating on circulating his qi and blood through his major meridians and dantian, transforming it into strands of true qi that surged toward the life aperture that had not yet been fully opened.

Eight out of ten...

Nine out of ten...

With the continuous flow of true energy, the remaining progress in opening up the path was advancing at a visible speed.

Before long, the last bit of progress was filled with true energy.

There was a soft "pop" sound, like a bubble bursting, followed by...

The vital energy point has been opened!

"Buzz~~~"

Just like when the body and spirit orifices were opened, strange fluctuations surged from the formed life orifices and reached every corner of Mu Yang's body.

In an instant, the five major acupoints of the body, which were originally independent and connected only by the main meridians, seemed to be connected by invisible threads and trembled slightly in unison.

The next moment, a warm current surged out from the five major acupoints of the body, flowing through the limbs and bones.

This symbolizes the unification of the five major bodily orifices after the opening of the life orifice.

The true energy that originally required five things to be used to mobilize can now be activated with just one thought.

In addition, the opening of the Life Aperture also brought Mu Yang a strength increase of 300 million jin and a soul increase of 5 cups.

This is only the increase in the life aperture.

With the added benefits of the other two purple attributes, "Strong Physique" and "Enhanced Divine Soul," his single-arm strength increased by a staggering 1000 million jin, reaching an astonishing 5403 million jin.

His spiritual power increased by 30 cups, bringing his total spiritual power to 65 cups, more than double what it was at the beginning.

"A force of 54 million jin... I never thought that physical strength would actually surpass the amplification of true qi..."

Mu Yang clenched his fist, secretly marveling at the sight.

He now possesses 133,000 strands of high-grade true qi within his body, with a total amplification effect of 53.2 million jin.

Such an exaggerated increase still cannot compare to Mu Yang's current physical strength, which shows how powerful his physique is.

Even a sixth-order perfected rare bloodline demon is probably not as good as Mu Yang now.

After experiencing the changes in the basic values, Mu Yang tried out the new ability as usual.

The first is radio wave sensing.

With his current spiritual power, he can sense a straight-line distance of approximately 6.5 kilometers.

With the added advantage of the unique terrain of Thunder Valley, the distance reaches an astonishing 26 kilometers.

While not enough to encompass the entire Thunder Valley, it was enough for him to launch attacks on opponents from an extremely long distance without them noticing.

At least within Thunder Valley, he was confident that he could summon thunderclouds and unleash lightning strikes from a distance of more than ten kilometers.

Even with his superhuman eyesight, he couldn't detect this distance at all.

The only downside is that with such a long distance between them, he doesn't have many moves he can use.

Only lightning strikes and Purple Extreme Heavenly Lightning.

Afterwards, Mu Yang left the cave and tested the Thunder Wing.

As dense purple lightning danced within the golden wings behind him, Mu Yang's speed suddenly doubled.

It was almost as fast as when he used the Golden Flowing Wind buff before.

In other words, if he were to activate the Flowing Wind Golden Light again, his speed could increase by another 50%.

In other words, each time the divine soul is strengthened, the speed of nerve reaction increases; otherwise, at this speed, even Mu Yang himself might not be able to react in time.

After experiencing the combined extreme speed of the three, Mu Yang returned to the depths of the cave.

The place was quiet, which made it convenient for him to continue equipping his gear.

For the next two items, Mu Yang didn't choose anything else, but instead put the "Four Spirits and Four Symbols Demon-Suppressing Body" and the "Record of Destroying All Laws" into the box.

Aside from the influx of cultivation information far exceeding his expectations, there were no other changes.

The "Four Spirits and Four Symbols Demon-Suppressing Body" technique requires him to actively divide his divine soul to open up the ethereal spirit, and then kill demons to nourish the ethereal spirit.

The equipment simply saved him the trouble of gaining insights.

This is similar to a powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage reincarnating and starting anew. Although they have fully comprehended the cultivation techniques of the Qi Refining stage, they still need to absorb spiritual energy themselves.

As for "The Record of the Destruction of All Laws"?

This thing is almost no different when equipped than when not equipped.

This thing is just a speculative hypothesis, without any substantial cultivation content.

If it weren't for the powerful equipment slots, it would probably be no different from a piece of waste paper.

To activate the power to break the law, one still needs to accumulate experience afterward.

"Why not just nurture a phantom spirit directly..."

After equipping himself with the Four Spirits and Four Symbols Demon-Suppressing Body, Mu Yang finally understood the cultivation process of this martial art.

It can be described as extremely difficult.

Putting everything else aside, the sheer pain of having one's soul severed is enough to drive someone insane.

In other words, this process will not actually damage the soul; otherwise, many beginners would probably go insane while practicing.

Normally, cultivating this method requires a seventh-level cultivation level.

After all, with the soul strength of a sixth-level martial artist, the maximum is only twenty cups, which is not enough to separate four ethereal spirits.

However, Mu Yang's current spiritual strength has already reached sixty-five cups, which is more than enough.

Based on the calculation that a seventh-order ethereal spirit requires ten cups of divine soul, Mu Yang is capable of nurturing four ethereal spirits at once.

Mu Yang's only concern was how painful it would be to separate his soul from his body.

For Gu Changkong, a mere demon-suppressing general, to feel pain, it must be no simple matter.

Pulling his thoughts back, Mu Yang calmed himself down.

"Sizzle—"

A sound like tearing cloth echoed in Mu Yang's mind.

That was the sound of him dividing his soul according to the "Four Spirits and Four Symbols Demon-Suppressing Body".

Unexpectedly, although there was intense pain when the soul was split, it was at most the extent of broken bones in the hands and feet.

Although it hurts a little, it's nothing for a martial artist who practices and fights all year round.

"Could it be that I have a special talent for this method?"

Mu Yang didn't understand, but he didn't delve into it.

He doesn't have any particular fetishes, so if possible, painlessness would be the best outcome.

As the sound of tearing cloth gradually rang out, soon, a ethereal spirit that occupied about one-sixth of Mu Yang's total divine soul was born.

It was a figure that vaguely resembled a dragon.

Its entire body was bluish-green, its scales were illusory, and its eyes were lifeless, like a mindless puppet, floating blankly in Mu Yang's mind.

This is the Azure Dragon Void Spirit!

However, the Azure Dragon ethereal spirit that has not yet been fed is, apart from having some resemblance in appearance, just an empty shell.

"I feel there are no problems, continue."

After pausing to make sure there wasn't much pain, Mu Yang pressed on and continued to create the second ethereal spirit—the Vermilion Bird ethereal spirit.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the pain was much greater when he cut his soul the second time.

But it's still within a tolerable range.

Then, a miniature Vermilion Bird ethereal spirit with wings that burned like flames appeared beside the Azure Dragon ethereal spirit.

Immediately afterwards, the White Tiger Void Spirit entered the opening sequence.

However, this time Mu Yang clearly felt the pain intensify, almost four times that of opening the Azure Dragon Void Spirit.

After opening up the White Tiger Void Spirit, Mu Yang's face turned slightly pale, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Could it be that the degree of pain during the opening is related to the total amount of divine soul?" Mu Yang wondered to himself.

It took about one-sixth of his divine soul to divide the first Azure Dragon ethereal spirit.

When it comes to the second Vermilion Bird ethereal spirit, it is one-fifth.

However, only a quarter of the White Tiger Void Spirit is present.

As his soul grew smaller and smaller, the pain intensified, and it was hard for Mu Yang not to think this way.

Driven by the desire to verify his claim, he continued to divide the last Xuanwu ethereal spirit.

As expected, the pain intensified once again.

If we had to use an imprecise quantitative analogy, it would be like a man without any cultivation being violently attacked by a strong adult man with a hammer.

Not just once.

It was one blow after another!!

Even Mu Yang couldn't help but frown, clench his teeth, and sweat pour down his forehead.

After a long while, as a miniature Xuanwu spirit appeared, the pain disappeared, and Mu Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's decided! For the future of humanity, such a powerful martial art must be passed down completely!
