Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

His voice was devoid of emotion, as if he were simply stating a matter of course.

Like ants toiling in the mud, we can only look up at the dragon soaring in the sky.

Before returning to his room, he squeezed Cain and Xu Tianzhen's hands, exchanged one last glance with Ma Xiaotao, and then disappeared behind the door.

"wait for me."

silence.

a long time.

Huo Yuhao twitched the corner of his mouth, trying his best to look disdainful:

"You're quite the smooth talker."

This time, however, even the members of the Tang Clan were unusually silent.

Xuanzi sighed, took a dejected bite of his chicken leg, and waved to Beibei and the others:

"Come in first. I just checked, and he is indeed seriously injured. Considering the special circumstances of your opponent in this competition, some rewards can be given to you in advance."

"Let's discuss some tactical arrangements; maybe we can give the captain a surprise?"

Looking at his younger sister, whose eyes were shining with a strange light, Xiao Hongchen scratched his head with a wry smile. In some ways, he might never be able to compare to his junior brother in this lifetime.

Cain placed one hand over the doorway, exchanged a glance with Xu Tianzhen, and nodded firmly.

They will wait for him to return.

Inside his room, Kong Tianxu sat cross-legged, holding in his hand the Blade of Judgment of Life.

The original dark body of this murderous blade has completely transformed into something resembling azure crystal, and the azure light it emits has become as clear as water, without a trace of impurity.

It seemed that because it had just absorbed the life force of a high-quality level seven soul tool, the green light on the blade was particularly strong. The feeling that even breathing around it made people feel full of life made Long Xiaoyao marvel.

"Grandpa, Elder Long, please guard the Star Emperor Hotel to prevent any outside interference or spying. Elder Ye, please protect me."

The top experts from the three continents all nodded. Kong Tianxu had already conveyed his thoughts to them through Ye Xishui beforehand. Now, they only needed to act according to Kong Tianxu's instructions.

"Alright, Tianxu, then Grandpa wishes you success in your first divine test in advance."

After Kong Deming finished speaking, a flash of silver light appeared, and he disappeared from the room.

Soul tools have actually developed to this point? Long Xiaoyao looked in surprise in the direction where Kong Deming disappeared. It was a way of using space that was completely different from that of a Limit Douluo like him.

“Young friend, since your life is tied to Xishui’s, I won’t say anything more. With me here, you can do whatever you want.”

Long Xiaoyao took a step forward, and an indistinct spatial shadow appeared in front of him. He walked into it, and there was no trace of his presence left in the room.

Ye Xishui raised her hand and a pure soul power barrier covered the entire room. The gentle soul power filled the surroundings, calming Kong Tianxu's slightly tense mood.

He gripped the carving knife tightly, its warm texture and rich life force soothing his soul.

If he still couldn't achieve his vision even with the protection of three Limit Douluo-level beings, the demigod-level insight of Zhongli Yuan, and the success story of Electrolux, then what about more?

He stretched out his hands, his tangible yet intangible spiritual power completely merging with the carving knife, and a strange aura began to emanate from the knife itself.

In an instant, the Blade of Judgment of Life shone with a bright blue light, and an extremely rich and vigorous life force was released in the form of mist. However, under his precise control, it completely enveloped the surface of the carving knife, flowing and pulsating without leaking out in the slightest.

Kong Tianxu held the sharp tip of the carving knife directly to his chest.

Then to the left, to the heart.

Slowly descend.

close.

That's the location below the twelfth pair of ribs in the human body.

The pulsating blue light on the surface of the Blade of Judgment of Life slowly transformed into a rhythmic breathing pattern, seemingly following some kind of law under Kong Tianxu's guidance, while pure golden light gradually emerged from Kong Tianxu's body.

As you can see, his blood flow, muscle contraction, and even the relaxation of his meridians are all accelerating rapidly, and the sound of his heartbeat has become crystal clear, instead of being faintly audible.

The sound continued to grow louder, and the light emanating from the Blade of Judgment of Living Beings became increasingly rapid and intense.

The sound grew louder and more terrifying, and became increasingly dazzling with golden light, as if some kind of power was about to burst forth!

A heartbeat that was absolutely deafening!

It was like a god beating a spring drum; it was so loud that one wondered if it was a heart or a sun bursting forth!

At the same time, the azure light finally harmonized perfectly with it, and it was as if a blue sun was rising again in the room!

It's now!

The blade plunged in fiercely—

In the golden-blue new sun, intense pain and unparalleled vitality erupted simultaneously!

Chapter 117 Bones of the Living and the Call of the Gods

As the blade pierced his body, an intensely rich and vibrant life force surged through his ribs, and Kong Tianxu felt as if he had received another divine inheritance from the God of Destruction.

With his ribs at the center, he felt as if he had been struck by a giant hammer, and his body began to tremble violently and uncontrollably.

At the same time, the primal life force of the Blade of Judgment of Life also surged in, washing over his limbs and bones, bringing an indescribable sense of comfort.

In that instant, Kong Tianxu's entire body was dyed a turquoise color, and even his internal organs, bones, and spiritual sea were no exception, all turning into a green ocean.

Under the intense blue light, the life force gradually became viscous, and an unprecedented feeling of comfort spread throughout the body.

Kong Tianxu felt as if every cell in his body was groaning with happiness, greedily absorbing the vast life force emanating from the Life Gold.

The blood-red killing intent that had been lingering in his body like a bone-deep infection began to melt away at a visible speed in the face of this life force that was so dense it was almost tangible.

He could almost see every part of his body. Everything inside him transformed into a vibrant green. His meridians became more elastic, his internal organs more resilient, and his bones stronger.

It seems like my whole being is undergoing a qualitative change.

What surprised him most was his meridians. Although they weren't directly widened, their strength was clearly increasing.

It's important to understand that the strength of the meridians is different from the strength of the body. The latter can be continuously strengthened with the nourishment of soul power, but the resilience of the meridians is extremely difficult to improve significantly.

This directly relates to whether a Soul Master can accommodate more abundant Soul Power and whether they can better absorb and enhance Soul Power.

Besides innate soul power level, the resilience and width of the meridians are the most important factors determining a soul master's cultivation speed. While the descendants of powerful soul master clans on the continent cannot change their innate soul power level, they can improve their meridian quality through various means such as the Profound Water Pill, achieving an effect similar to increasing their innate soul power level.

At the same time, the reason why Huo Yuhao's cultivation speed is slower than that of a normal innate first-level soul master is that his martial soul mutation has made his body weak, and his meridians are even worse than those of an ordinary person.

The blue light continuously washed over Kong Tianxu's entire body, as if searching for something, but the blue light that kept overflowing from his pores failed to remove even a trace of dirt.

This is the immense life force carried by the Metal of Life, like a pool of life-giving water, cleansing every corner of his body from the outside in.

Normally, even if Kong Tianxu never takes any pills, there should still be some impurities in his body.

However, the purification of his body by the Origin of All Things was so thorough that even a divine object like the Gold of Life could only enhance rather than improve his physique.

Kong Tianxu's exceptional talent was once again on full display.

This cleansing did not improve his cultivation, but it made Kong Tianxu feel that his body was as clear and transparent as crystal, like the gold of life.

Everything I had gained through years of diligent practice seemed to have been integrated and become a unified whole under the nourishment of this rich life force.

Many things that were unclear during my previous cultivation became clear at this moment as my mind became clear.

The gold of life is indeed extraordinary.

Kong Tianxu's joy and confidence grew stronger. Although the Life Gold in front of him only nourished his body for a short time, he could clearly feel that all the rare and precious herbs he had eaten before combined were not as effective as this instantaneous effect.

The feeling of sudden enlightenment was especially unprecedented.

His body was already considered to be of exceptional quality, but now it has reached an even higher level, an extremely exaggerated degree, with every cell seemingly containing astonishing vitality.

He knew that after this upgrade, his cultivation speed would increase further. At the same time, his body's endurance would also increase accordingly.

Perhaps, after he completes his vision, a physical body at the Contra level will not be his current limit.

The blood-red killing intent had gradually thinned and dissipated under the surging life force of the living gold. The pain of the blade of life's judgment piercing his body was also gradually subsiding as he adapted.

After completely absorbing the life force released by the Gold of Life, his body also underwent some changes.

His ribs were more densely packed, and his spine appeared to have grown longer.

Thus, the spot where the blade of judgment was aimed at became an empty bone joint.

Now, the real highlight begins!

The blue-green creature piercing his ribs trembled slightly, and strangely, not a drop of blood flowed from the wound.

Instead, the living metal gradually softened, turning into a bluish-green liquid that flowed into Kong Tianxu's body through the wound, and the broken wound healed accordingly.

Kong Tianxu's entire body was once again tinged with a thick layer of cyan. It could be clearly seen that the tip of the Blade of Judgment of Life had penetrated his spine in his almost completely transparent left half of body.

However, this is not pure destruction.

Under the influence of a lapis lazuli halo, the pierced part began to subtly merge with the surrounding split muscles and bones, constantly writhing and deforming, like a miniature version of a spear.

It also resembles a rib.

Yes, it's the rib, the twenty-fifth rib!

After purifying the Gold of Life but discovering that he didn't know how to fuse it, Kong Tianxu immediately recalled the remnant soul of Electrolux that Zhong Liyuan had once devoured, as well as the memories that the other party had left in his sea of ​​consciousness.

During this time, he was constantly merging with this memory and searching for a way to perfectly fuse with the gold of life.

Initially, he planned to integrate it into the sea of ​​spirits in the same way as the original work, and open the third eye of the living.

But after he accepted all of Zhongli Yuan's memories and fully understood the fusion principle of the living gold, he had a new idea.

Electrolux infused the Gold of Life into Huo Yuhao's brain because he himself relied on Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea and needed the life force of the Gold of Life, which was created by heaven and earth, to provide his divine consciousness with something to rely on and nourish, so as to ensure that his remnant soul would not perish.

At the same time, it is also because Huo Yuhao's most fundamental attribute is spiritual power. The essence of life flows into the sea of ​​spirit, and through the nourishment of the sea of ​​spirit by the life force, the growth rate of his spiritual power is at least three times that of a normal spiritual soul master.

Moreover, the Sea of ​​Spirit is practically immortal. No matter how severe the physical injury, under the influence of the Metal of Life, as long as the brain remains, it can repair itself, making it virtually impossible to die.

But he is different. He already possesses the divinity of the God of Destruction, and his spiritual power has reached a tangible yet intangible realm far beyond his level, in addition to the silver dragon skull of a hundred thousand years of divine punishment.

The rapid growth of his second sea of ​​consciousness, or mental strength, was of little significance to him compared to the enhancement of his physical body.

After all, a normal Title Douluo-level physical strength is far from sufficient to perfectly integrate the massive soul core prototype left to him by Zhongli Yuan.

Therefore, he initially proposed two locations for the primordial life force of the living metal: the heart and the chest, but ultimately abandoned both for various reasons.

Ultimately, he chose the current method: rib reconstruction.

Or rather, the foundation of the ribs.
