The following day, Xu Yang entered White Dragon Island again, maintaining his previous appearance but revealing his cultivation.
Perfect Qi Refinement.
From the tenth to twelfth level of Qi Cultivation signifies a state of completion, with three barriers: the physical body, Divine Soul, and Mana.
Although Xu Yang had just broken through the four barriers and recently stepped into the realm of Martial Path Condensing Spirit, he had already reached the Grandmaster Realm of perfect completion.
For him, the three barriers of perfect completion posed no obstruction whatsoever.
His body had undergone rebirth through the Body Training Skill.
His Divine Soul was already complete, aided by the Heshi Jade and a thousand years of accumulation from his previous lives in Great Zhou and Great Tang.
As for Mana, he possessed the profound Martial Arts Scriptures, the Thunder and Lightning Tempering Skill, various Skill Traits and the nourishment of foods…
When all these aspects were combined, it took Xu Yang only three months after his promotion to reach the Condensing Spirit Ultimate Realm.
Corresponding to Perfect Qi Refinement!
In White Dragon Lake, where only one Foundation Establishment Cultivator openly resided, a cultivation of Perfect Qi Refinement was sufficient to dominate.
Not to mention, he was also a “Thunder Series” cultivator.
Thus, Xu Yang unusually decided to make a high-profile appearance. After killing The Three Scourges of White Dragon, he entered the marketplace of
White Dragon Island with his previous identity to prepare for the sale of The Three Scourges’ treasures in exchange for Spirit Stones.
Such an action seemed somewhat inconsistent with his usual style.
But, in fact, it was not.
The reason Xu Yang had lived as a commoner and laid low for more than twenty years was because his Attribute Panel couldn’t be upgraded by adding points—only through time accumulation. Also, the issue of the Immortal Fate Men was delicately interconnected, triggering a chain reaction at the slightest touch, so he acted with extreme caution.
After all, with no capital to operate with initially, the margin for error was far too low.
Now the situation was different; he had the strength, the capital, the ability to protect himself, and some understanding of this world. An event like that involving the Immortal Fate Men was unlikely to happen to him again.
After all… The loss would not be worth the gain!
Given the strength he currently displayed, below Foundation Establishment he had few competitors, and above that level, it would be a mutually destructive battle.
Which brain-addled Foundation Establishment Cultivator would risk their life in a desperate struggle with a Thunder Series Spell Cultivator of Perfect Qi Refinement, especially one specialized in Thunder Skills?
What for?
To challenge his mighty Thunder Skill, only to face a potential self-destruct?
Or because they think he has strong connections and will seek revenge?
In this world, everything hustles for profit, and Cultivators are no different.
Unless there is a vendetta as deep as the ocean or an enormous benefit to be gained, no Foundation Establishment Cultivator would risk their life in a desperate fight with a twelfth-layer Thunder Lightning Magic Cultivator.
It simply wouldn’t be worth the loss.
If they win, they gain nothing. These Practicing Thunder Skill folks usually have a self-destruct trick up their sleeves as a last resort, ensuring that anyone who fights them not only fails to obtain any spoils but also gets blasted with blood.
If they lose, even less needs to be said. They would create a formidable enemy and endless trouble for themselves.
Without any deep-seated grudges, which Foundation Establishment individual would be so foolish?
Therefore, in the short term, Xu Yang could freely enter and leave the White Dragon Island marketplace and openly sell the spoils of The Three Scourges of White Dragon.
There was virtually no risk.
So, Xu Yang came.
He acted with caution, not out of timidity or paranoid fantasies that the whole world was against him. He would still undertake normal, rational activities that were well within his control and which he deemed secure.
Upon entering White Dragon Island, he did not seek a guide but headed directly to the tall tower at the center of the marketplace.
White Dragon Tower, a property of White Dragon Island itself, was also the largest store in the marketplace, buying and selling a range of items including, but not limited to, Cultivation Techniques, Magic Artifacts, elixirs, Talismans, intelligence, and various heritages…
In short, they sold everything, bought everything, and their reputation was quite good, since they were a Foundation Establishment power.
No sooner had Xu Yang walked into White Dragon Tower than a woman came to greet him.
“A distinguished guest graces our doorstep with his presence!”
The woman greeted him with a smile and a bow, “I am Yun Yan, the manager of
White Dragon Tower. May I know the esteemed name of our guest?”
Xu Yang responded indifferently, “My name is Shi Jian.”
“Ah, so it’s Senior Shi!”
The woman smiled charmingly and gestured, “As our honored guest, Senior, please come upstairs to the reception.”
Xu Yang nodded and headed straight for the second floor.
Clearly, he was not surprised by this treatment.
On the other hand, everyone in the lobby was left exchanging glances, filled with confusion and doubts.
Not until the two figures ascended to the second floor and vanished from sight did someone venture to speak out.
“That person is…”
“The Thunder Lightning Mana King who killed The Three Scourges of White Dragon yesterday!”
“Shi Jian?
“I’ve never heard of this name. Could he be a ‘big-shot’ from another region?”
“It’s said that his Thunder Skills are exceptional. Even that Supreme Grade Magic Artifact that protected the body of The Three Scourges was shattered by him.”
“That Golden Toad was a defensive-oriented Supreme Grade Magic Artifact with the ability to leap through water and space. The Three Scourges once escaped a Foundation Establishment Cultivator’s pursuit with it, but it fell into his hands yesterday!”
“Thunder Skills are formidable. They control the pivotal forces of heaven and earth, the ultimate among all skills. They overpower everything in the Martial Path, whether it be cultivating skills or Divine Skills, Magic Artifacts or Spiritual Treasures. If it belongs to this world, if it still resides within the Three Realms and the Five Elements, then it is overcome by thunder and lightning. Otherwise, why would we Cultivators fear the celestial Thunder Tribulation so profoundly!”
“With his Perfect Qi Refinement and as a Thunder Series cultivator, probably no one can compete with him below Foundation Establishment level, and above that, he could fight to the bitter end. No wonder some people jokingly call him the Thunder Lightning Mana King.”
“Manager Yun Yan was so respectful to him—does White Dragon Island intend to recruit him?”
“Most likely, considering the current situation on White Dragon Island…”
“Truly enviable! If only I could practice the Thunder Skill, that would be wonderful!”
