Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 98 - 89: Jade Cicada Shedding God, Life and Death, Prosperity and Decline (Second Update)
But for Xu Guang, this is not a problem at all.
As long as the cultivation technique is initiated, investing experience points along with enough spirit crystals, it can be directly elevated to a level sufficient for the scattering technique...
This cultivation technique is almost entirely tailor-made for him!
Suddenly.
Xu Guang thought of something.
"My martial artist talent [Horizontal Pressure] should also count as a type of mental pressure..."
Thinking of this, Xu Guang closed his eyes once more, gathering the force of horizontal pressure. This time, the spiritual power he emitted carried an immensely strong sense of oppression.
This was evident from Han Song, who came to find him. Upon entering his range of spiritual perception, Han Song could hardly breathe, his whole body stiffened, and his mind went blank.
[Martial Artist’s Log: Mental horizontal pressure is also horizontal pressure, experience +5]
Xu Guang withdrew his spiritual power, pondering.
With this, obtaining experience points becomes incredibly simple for him.
A smile surfaced on Xu Guang’s face.
What a delightful surprise.
Xu Guang took out the Snow Dragon Bow and carefully examined it. After beginning the Jade Cicada Molt Divine Technique, he finally realized that the Fallen Dragon was actually an innate martial technique.
Su Yan was truly generous to give it to him.
Thinking of this, he was a bit curious about where Su Yan ultimately went?
Unfortunately, the promise he made to Su Yan has not yet been fulfilled.
...
Shanping County, Jingya Small Building.
Located in the southern part of the city, the Jingya Small Building was built by the Song Clan after occupying Shanping County. Few people know what exactly goes on inside.
This place is not open to the public, nor does it allow outsiders to investigate.
Within this small bamboo grove in the city, there is a small and exquisite wooden building.
At this moment, inside the small building, various forces under the command of the sixth son, Song Di, from Shanping County, have gathered to participate in the mission against the Ghost Horse Sect personally presided over by Song Di.
More than a year has passed, and Song Di’s strength has already broken through to the seventh grade. For a young man of just twenty, this is considered talented.
But he is a direct lineage of the Song Clan, and began foundation-building with herbal baths at the age of six, started practicing martial arts at fifteen.
In five years, a seventh-grade cultivation is not dazzling.
Not to mention, the patriarch of the Song Clan and his extremely talented elder brother, who had similar treatment, both broke through to innate power at twenty-one and twenty-three respectively.
Song Di has no confidence in breaking through to innate power within three years.
More than half a year has passed since the patriarch assigned Song Di the task to annihilate the Ghost Horse Sect, and there has been no result from Song Di’s side.
He knows that the time left for him is not much.
"Everyone here is among our own. I believe you all understand my situation well. If this fails, I can only leave in disgrace, and the end for you all won’t be good either."
Song Di said directly and softly.
Tie Kuang was the first to agree, as he is the most unwilling for Song Di to fail.
As Song Di’s biological uncle, even though he is innate, he wouldn’t be accepted by the other heirs of the Song family.
This is the fundamental issue and contradiction.
The rest of the people below had strange expressions, as if measuring their options.
This scene brought a chill to Song Di’s eyes.
In chaotic times, it is understandable for everyone to consider their own interests, but the current situation — not knowing how many resources these people siphoned off from him to achieve their current standing — naturally, he cannot allow them to serve two masters.
This is an extremely serious matter of attitude.
"Sect Leader Lou Kun, you also broke through to innate with my support. Do you think you have a way out?"
"You must be joking, my lord. I, Lou Kun, will only follow you! We will promptly present the heads of the Ghost Horse Sect remnants."
The crowd below had peculiar looks.
Tie Kuang of Qingshuo County’s Iron Armor Sect, Lou Kun of Shanping County’s Blazing Fire Gang, Pavilion Master Jin Donghe of the Thousand Words Pavilion.
These are the forces under Song Di’s control.
"I understand Tu Hu’s intention; he’s been appearing and disappearing during this period, to retaliate against my Song family and to lure out significant members. Now, I’m standing here, waiting for them."
Song Di said firmly.
He is an ambitious person, unwilling to leave the Song Clan in disgrace and become a son-in-law to the Jiang family; that would be humiliating.
He is at a point of breaking the pot and sinking the boat.
After everyone dispersed.
Tie Kuang stood beside Song Di, hesitating, "Xiaodi, you..."
Song Di’s gaze was calm, "If I do not appear, neither Tu Hu nor Tu Biao will appear, this is the only way."
Tie Kuang sighed.
After a long silence, Tie Kuang opened his mouth to speak.
"Then go to Qingshuo County and treat it as the final battleground."
Song Di looked at Tie Kuang.
"Do you remember Xu Guang who can tame great beasts? This person comes from a prestigious family and is closely associated with Jiufeng Mountain. It’s safer for you to wait for Tu Hu and Tu Biao in Qingshuo County than in Shanping County."
