C330 Second star mark

In the Flame Devil Ancient Mansion Great Hall, Gu Xuan stood upright with the Bone Lance in his hands, as if he had frozen there. Suddenly, Gu Xuan moved his spear up, unleashing the third level of the Protection Barrier s in a row.

"This God-Destructing Bone Lance is no small matter, it actually did not just increase its power, but instead used a martial art technique. Using a martial art technique to increase one's strength, the person able to create this Bone Lance is most likely not an ordinary Monarch Stage Expert."

Gu Xuan sighed in his heart. Ordinary Spiritual Treasure s were nothing more than strong people gathering their formations into treasures, allowing weaker Martial Cultivator s to be able to unleash several times, or even dozens of times the power of the Spiritual Treasure.

However, the explosion of power had nothing to do with the martial arts. It could be said to be brute force, but through the Spiritual Treasure, he had increased the brute force.

The reason why Gu Xuan's Sky Tearing Hand was able to combine with his right hand was not because of martial arts, but because Gu Xuan used the Divine Weapon Formula to temper his right hand, and so they complemented each other.

In this regard, it was equivalent to the strength of middle stage Common Stage Spiritual Treasure s, but the seven layers of Protection Barrier, were the most crucial. After studying all seven stages, one could enlarge his own "martial arts" level.

For example, Gu Xuan, the martial arts he was displaying right now was also barely at the first level of Earth Rank, but once he mastered the sixth level of Protection Barrier, he could release power that was close to that of a Heaven Rank martial art. If Gu Xuan mastered the seventh level of Protection Barrier, then using a Bone Lance would be equivalent to using a Heaven Rank martial art!

"Right now, I have only mastered the first three levels of Protection Barrier. The help it provides me is miniscule, but my martial arts are still too strong. At the very least, I need to acquire Fifth Layer in order to display its true power."

Gu Xuan thought in his heart, this God-Destructing Bone Lance's fourth floor, is called "Light And Shadow," and when it is used, it causes the shadows to go into disorder. As for the Fifth Layer Protection Barrier, it is called "Aurora" and this floor is no small matter either, when all the strength in one's body is crushed to the size of a speck of dust, this point, when gathered to the limit, could penetrate through everything!

Level one to three Protection Barrier were unleashed without any hesitation. Gu Xuan could feel that the reason why he had broken through the Protection Barrier so quickly was mainly because of the star mark on his chest.

As long as he could complete the second star mark, it would be considered as complete!

Gu Xuan continued to brandish the Bone Lance, squeezing out his martial arts potential. He used it time and time again, and over and over again, surpassing the limits of his endurance. Most people would only try this method a few times before reaching the edge of collapse.

However, Gu Xuan persisted and gritted his teeth for half a day.

Every time he broke through a limit, he would become the next limit. It was simply unimaginable for an ordinary person to break through again.

However, Gu Xuan needed to become stronger right now. His cultivation speed could be considered normal, but compared to a genius like Gu Xingyun, he was still lacking. If he could not even surpass Gu Xingyun in terms of cultivation speed, how could he be able to kill him?

According to Ji Shenhai, it was very likely that Gu Xingyun was already inside his True Realm. In that kind of place, even Saint Stage Martial Cultivator would feel like a carp passing the river, and Elemental Energy of Heaven And Earth and cultivation resources could not be compared to his Burning Heaven Continent. Cultivating for a year inside would at least be equivalent to cultivating for three years in his Burning Heaven Continent!

Furthermore, the agreement between him and the Dao Sect was less than a year old. In this short period of time, it would be extremely difficult for him to contend against such a colossal being like the Dao Sect.

"Damn it, if I don't die from refinement, I will rebirth!" Gu Xuan's eyes were filled with madness.

Pill Emperor Gu Xuan, how arrogant was he? No one in the world was worthy to be his opponent, only he could be his opponent. If he could even defeat himself, then others would just be ants!

Emissary Qing Feng stood at the side. Seeing the way Gu Xuan cultivated, he also sighed in his heart, for Gu Xuan to have such high talent, to have such perseverance, and to not become a genius, was simply something that the heavens could not tolerate.

"Old master, looks like the new master has far surpassed you. The Ancient Mansion Faction will once again flourish!"

One day. Two days. Three days …

Within these three days, he had been constantly breaking through his limits. Gu Xuan already lost count of how many times he had broken through, he was afraid there were more than a thousand times.

His consciousness had already become fuzzy. He only had his mind supporting him, causing him to continuously repeat the movements of his hands mechanically.

Fast! Fast! Faster!

This was the only thought left in Gu Xuan's mind.

Boom!

Finally, after breaking through who knows how many times, Gu Xuan finally reached the standard of having a second star imprint, and his body inexplicably released a burst of rumbling sounds.

On Gu Xuan's chest, the second fiery red star mark finally lit up and the two marks shone together.

"Light And Shadow!"

Gu Xuan shouted as his Bone Lance danced in the air, transforming into a ray of light that shot out explosively, ruthlessly smashing against the walls of the palace, causing the entire palace to tremble.

Qing Feng saw the Protection Barrier contained within the spear and was immediately overjoyed. "Good, good, Gu Xuan, in only three days, you have already grasped the fourth level of the Protection Barrier. It seems like it is the seventh level Protection Barrier that the old director desired you to use."

Bang!

As the star imprints condensed, Gu Xuan couldn't hold on any longer and slumped to the ground. He immediately gathered his last bit of strength and took out over a thousand Fire Condensing Pill and swallowed them all. A warm energy spread throughout his body and swept away all the fatigue in his body.

"Hu!"

Letting out a long breath, Gu Xuan's face revealed a smile. Although this cultivation session had made him so tired that he almost fainted, to have such an effect like this, was still worth it.

"Gu Xuan, this is a hundred and eleven thousand Fire Condensing Pill, keep it properly." Emissary Qing Feng waved his hand and a pill cloud flew out.

"Alright!" Gu Xuan licked his lips, and kept all of the Fire Condensing Pill into his Space Ring.

With these pills, Gu Xuan was completely capable of breaking through to the second star King Level. With the help of the God-Destructing Bone Lance in his possession, his strength could once again increase by leaps and bounds.

"Senior Qing Feng, I need to go into seclusion to cultivate for a while. After I come out, I will thoroughly refine my Ancient Mansion and leave this place." Gu Xuan said.

"Leaving so soon?" He had already stayed in this place for a few thousand years. He originally wanted to wait until Gu Xuan had reached Emperor Level before leaving, but now, Gu Xuan had already decided to leave.

"I still have many things I need to take care of. I can't stay here for long." Gu Xuan said as he nodded his head.

"Alright then." Qing Feng could only agree helplessly.

Cultivating within the entire Flame Devil Ancient Mansion was actually not something that could be disturbed, so Gu Xuan casually found a cultivation room and started to breakthrough to the two star King Level.

At this time, there was already quite a bit of commotion within the Heavenly Abyss Pavilion. Gu Xuan killing five Heavenly Abyss Pavilion disciples, and the fact that the Transfer Array actually teleported Gu Xuan away, made Yang Feng report to him as well.

In the Heavenly Abyss Pavilion Main Pavilion, Yang Feng was standing outside, holding his breath as he waited, with an excited expression.

Wind Emperor, as a Martial Cultivator of a Two Stars Emperor Level, was considered as one of the top experts in the entire The Four Major Sects. Yang Feng did not expect that after reporting about Gu Xuan's matter, he would actually be summoned by the Wind Emperor.

"Come in." Within the Main Pavilion, a calm voice came out. Yang Feng composed himself and pushed open the door.

"Disciple Yang Feng greets Pavilion Master!" Yang Feng lowered his head and said respectfully, he did not even dare to raise his head and look at the Wind Emperor, but out of the corner of his eyes, he also saw the man sitting in the main seat in front of him.

There seemed to be endless light shining from Wind Emperor's body, making it impossible for him to clearly see the Wind Emperor's appearance.

"Are you sure you're not mistaken? That Ying Tian Sect disciple entered the formation and disappeared?" Wind Emperor's imposing voice came out.

"Yes, disciple can guarantee it with his life!" Yang Feng said respectfully.

"Yes." Wind Emperor replied, as if he was lost in thought.

Yang Feng held his breath, he did not dare interrupt the Wind Emperor.

"You must try your best to keep this a secret and not mention it to anyone else. Also, go find the Third Elder of the Pavilion, tell him about that Ying Tian Sect disciple and determine who he really is." The Wind Emperor said again.

"Yes sir!"

"Go and wait outside the Transfer Array as usual after you've seen the Third Elder." The Wind Emperor waved his hand. Yang Feng only felt himself being bound by a strange energy and then floating out of the Main Pavilion.

"Pavilion Master's methods are truly unfathomable!" Yang Feng's heart was filled with shock, and with just a raise of his hand, his eyes immediately became even more fervent.

The pavilion master told him to wait on the spot, then he must be waiting for the Ying Tian Sect disciple. If he captured him and gave him to the pavilion master, then he would definitely be recognized by the pavilion master.

"Ying Tian Sect brat, you can escape from my hands and even kill the disciples of the pavilion in front of me. This time, I will capture you alive to wash away my shame!" Yang Feng secretly said in his heart.

He did not fear Gu Xuan's power at all. Last time, he only considered it to be a coincidence that Gu Xuan was able to leave safely.

Five days passed in a flash. Within the Ancient Mansion, a door to a secluded cultivation room opened by itself. Gu Xuan walked out from within.

"Senior Qing Feng, come over." Walking out of the seclusion chamber, Gu Xuan called out. Emissary Qing Feng was the artifact spirit of the Flame Devil Ancient Mansion, so no matter where he was, he could hear his voice.

Not long after, a cyan colored figure floated over and his gaze landed on Gu Xuan. He could not help but be shocked: "Gu Xuan, you broke through to the second star of the King Level?"

"That's right." Gu Xuan nodded.

"Fine." Gu Xuan's series of surprising actions had long raised his endurance to an unimaginable level. Even if Gu Xuan were to go against the heavens once more, he seemed to have already adapted to it. It was as if to Gu Xuan, regular cultivation was the most abnormal thing …
