Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along-Chapter 496 - 144: Black Wind Demon Lotus, Nurturing a Spiritual Root

Chapter 496: Chapter 144: Black Wind Demon Lotus, Nurturing a Spiritual Root

The Demon God Giant Axe was wary of the South Heaven Gate Array, so it kept heading towards the underground dark river, just as long as it could avoid the South Heaven Gate Array and prevent the Divine Light Talisman from striking it.

When facing Zhang Lingfeng, it wouldn’t have to hold back.

This idea was very correct.

But Zhang Lingfeng and Yuan Gang were not easy to deal with either.

One had a Dantian Sea of Qi at one hundred percent perfection, and the other was a genuine Grand Realm level Realm Traveler. In this joint situation, even if the Demon God Giant Axe hid in the underground dark river, it would be of no avail.

"Boom!"

Quickly, the two intercepted the Demon God Giant Axe.

Facing such a level of demon beast, with Yuan Gang present, Zhang Lingfeng chose to play a supporting role.

On one hand, using mental telekinesis to attack the Demon God Giant Axe, while on the other, using the power of the Dantian Sea of Qi to launch a surprise attack.

Yuan Gang locked the Demon God Giant Axe with a palm, all his palm force poured into the Demon God Giant Axe’s chest, and Zhang Lingfeng followed up by thrusting a spear into the Demon God Giant Axe’s head.

In a one-on-one fight, Zhang Lingfeng was already not afraid of the Demon God Giant Axe, even if he would suffer a loss, the Demon God Giant Axe couldn’t take advantage of him in a short time.

Now teamed up with Yuan Gang, it was unlikely that the Demon God Giant Axe would survive.

"Puff!"

As the spear pierced into the Demon God Giant Axe’s head, Yuan Gang severed the head with a sword, the blade piercing into the skull. Together with Zhang Lingfeng’s spear, they shredded the Demon God Giant Axe’s head to pieces.

"Dantian..."

The Demon God Giant Axe stared blankly at Zhang Lingfeng.

Before dying, it finally caught the changes in Zhang Lingfeng’s values.

Dantian Sea of Qi at one hundred percent.

What a terrifying power value this is. Once the spiritual root is nurtured, its grade will likely surpass upper grade spiritual roots and become one of the upper third grade spiritual roots.

"Good lad, the Sea of Qi is tangible, the gaseous state transforms into liquid state, your Dantian Sea of Qi value is above 90.0, right?"

Having successfully killed the Demon God Giant Axe, Yuan Gang looked at Zhang Lingfeng in amazement.

Although Zhang Lingfeng was just a Martial Arts Grandmaster, the power he exerted even moved Yuan Gang, this Grand Realm level Realm Traveler.

If he nurtures a spiritual root in the future, his own compatibility with heaven and earth will surpass other Realm Travelers.

With multiple forces combined, Zhang Lingfeng’s strength among Realm Travelers might approach invincible.

Based on Zhang Lingfeng’s Dantian Sea of Qi value, nurturing a spiritual root within sixth grade will be easy.

He might even nurture an upper-grade spiritual root.

As a Grand Realm level Realm Traveler, Yuan Gang’s spiritual root was only the same lower-grade spiritual root as that of the King of North of the River.

Each grade increase in spiritual root signifies an increase in compatibility with heaven and earth, the disparity is self-evident.

"A lucky breakthrough, just reached the critical point."

Zhang Lingfeng didn’t disclose the truth.

Not that he didn’t trust Yuan Gang, but in the depths of the Great Radiation Zone, the fact that his Dantian Sea of Qi is one hundred percent perfection, if leaked, might attract the attention of the Undersea Great Demon. If pursued by the Undersea Great Demon, unless he uses the Divine Light Talisman again, according to the current power reserve of Jiangbei Province, no one could ensure his safety.

"Young hero, I truly hope the Great Xia Kingdom has a few more of you."

Yuan Gang sighed.

"Overpraised, it’s not advisable to stay here long, let’s withdraw quickly!"

Zhang Lingfeng looked around.

The two were in the underground dark river, the environment here was complex. Under telepathy, although he did not detect other strong Demon God presences, there were quite a few traces of activities of alien demon beasts.

It’s unknown how far it is from the ocean.

If a terrifying Great Demon were to arrive, in the dark river, even the South Heaven Gate Array might not be able to save them.

"Alright."

"Hmm?"

Yuan Gang was also ready to retreat, but just after taking two steps, he suddenly stopped and looked towards the depths of the dark river.

"Mr. Yuan, what’s wrong?"

Zhang Lingfeng asked in confusion.

Yuan Gang was a Grand Realm level Realm Traveler, and his compatibility index with heaven and earth far surpassed his own. Any minor disturbance around couldn’t escape his senses.

"I suddenly felt a wave of spiritual power, an especially pure, seemingly never polluted spiritual power aura."

Yuan Gang said, closing his eyes.

"Undersea Divine King?"

Zhang Lingfeng was startled.

The South Heaven Gate Array was specifically designed to prevent the Undersea Divine King from approaching human areas.

The existence of the other, self-evident, if encountered in the dark river, both would surely die.

"No, such pure spiritual power wave, with a compatibility degree with the world close to one hundred percent, is not something any demon beast can achieve. It should be a heavenly treasure nurtured by heaven and earth."

Yuan Gang’s eyes lit up.

"Heavenly treasure, that?"

Zhang Lingfeng was caught off guard, thinking of the current environment they were in and the temptation of the heavenly treasure, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Why not, let’s take a look."

"Good."

Yuan Gang nodded.

The treasure nurtured by heaven and earth is extremely precious and scarce. Countless people risk their lives, venturing into the ocean to train, not only to slay alien demon beasts but more so to find heavenly treasures that aid their own cultivation.

Having felt such pure spiritual power waves in the underground dark river, how could Yuan Gang not want to investigate further.

Thus, he led Zhang Lingfeng in the direction of his perception.

All the way, Zhang Lingfeng released waves of mental telekinesis, the power of the Dantian Sea of Qi poised to act, ready to escape with Yuan Gang at any moment.

After all, this was the depth of the Great Radiation Zone, and also within the underground dark river, an area undetectable by human satellites, it was unknown whether strong alien demon beasts were hidden here.

Moreover, heavenly treasures are invaluable to both humans and demon beasts, when humans seek such treasures, alien demon beasts, and even extraterrestrial beings also do the same.
