11: Chapter 11 Nine Shackles in the Bloodline

The hall was empty.

Apart from the four walls, there was only a glowing mat in the central area.

"Could the reward after passing the trial be on the mat?"

Ye Xiu walked towards the mat with some doubts. In the faint glow, a profound and mysterious feeling made him feel refreshed.

"Good stuff."

He was secretly pleased, and then slowly sat on it.

Immediately, the [Primordial Martial Arts General Outline], which he had previously found difficult to understand, was parsed one by one.

At this moment, Ye Xiu entered a state of Epiphany.

The [Primordial Martial Arts General Outline], originally obscure and difficult to understand, relying only on passive comprehension, became clear in the state of Epiphany.

A faint glow enveloped Ye Xiu.

Infinite Spiritual Qi suddenly gushed into the first floor of the hall, letting Ye Xiu, who was in the state of Epiphany, absorb it crazily.

His aura was soaring wildly, and the blood energy within his Physical Body became increasingly rich.

As his understanding of the Transcendence chapter of the [Primordial Martial Arts General Outline] deepened, Ye Xiu's aura became more solidified.

He felt that as long as he could maintain this state of Epiphany, a Breakthrough to the Sky-Soaring Realm would be just around the corner.

The Breakthrough from the Transcendence Realm to the Sky-Soaring Realm, apart from a huge increase in power, had its biggest difference in unlocking the shackles of the human body.

The shackles of heaven and earth upon the Cultivator.

Every living being has its own limits; they might have different upper limits of power and physique due to differences in Bloodline.

But shackles are a phenomenon that exists in all living beings.

Every Breakthrough of a Realm is a process of breaking shackles.

To break through one's own limits, one must break the shackles imposed by heaven and earth upon oneself.

The stronger the Bloodline, the more terrifying the shackles of heaven and earth.

As the head of the Top Ten Martial Sages with the [Heaven-Breaking Martial Body], the difficulty for Ye Xiu to break through to the [Sky-Soaring Realm] was extremely shocking.

Heaven and earth are fair.

The strength of his Bloodline allowed him to fight across ranks.

But at the same time, the improvement of his Cultivation had to be thousands of times that of ordinary Cultivators, and the shackles of heaven and earth he received during a Breakthrough were also thousands of times stronger than those of ordinary Cultivators.

Just like now.

In the state of Epiphany, he could clearly feel nine invisible chains sealing him tightly, preventing him from entering the Lingxu Realm.

The [Primordial Martial Arts General Outline] is a Cultivation Technique for breaking through Realms; every operation is a bombardment on the shackles.

This state lasted for a full day.

Only then did the faint glow completely dissipate.

"In the state of Epiphany, the speed of operating the [Primordial Martial Arts General Outline] on my own is more than a hundred times faster. In the ancient tower hall with infinite Spiritual Qi, I actually only opened the first chain..."

Feeling the disappearing Spiritual Qi.

Ye Xiu was somewhat tearful. The [Heaven-Breaking Martial Body] is strong, but are the nine Bloodline chains too exaggerated?

Even in the state of Epiphany, with the supply of infinite Spiritual Qi, he had only broken the first Bloodline chain in one day.

If this were in an external Cultivation environment.

He was afraid he would never have the chance to break into the Void Imperial Realm in his lifetime.

Looking at the hazy mist emerging again in the hall, Ye Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly. He was still worried about not having a chance to enter the Sky-Soaring Realm.

Now, this kind of trial was not a one-time thing.

Heaven and earth overturned, the world changed.

This time, the opponent was a graceful woman holding a sword. Her face was blurry, and her white clothes were peerless.

When the two met, there were no words.

They immediately unfolded a peerless battle.

Terrifying Sword Qi danced all over the sky. The sharpness of the sword light was something even Ye Xiu's physical defense could not withstand.

He was very disheveled.

This female Sword Cultivator's attack power was too terrible. If her speed and reaction were not inferior to his, he would likely have died under this sharp sword light.

In this battle, Ye Xiu fought very miserably.

The female Sword Cultivator's sword was too sharp. Under one move of [Sword Fall], even if he used [Pride of the World], he only managed a draw.

However, although this Sword Cultivator's attack power was maxed out.

Her speed and defense were weaknesses. Under Ye Xiu's tactic of exchanging injuries for injuries, she was eventually defeated.

The trial ended.

Everything returned to the origin.

Ye Xiu sat on the mat in the ancient tower hall, spending less than ten minutes to repair his severely damaged body.

The [Primordial Martial Arts General Outline] began to run.

Absorbing the Spiritual Qi in the hall crazily, he began to violently impact the Bloodline shackles again.

Another day passed.

The second Bloodline chain broke.

Ye Xiu stood up, quietly waiting for the next battle to come.

Sure enough.

Heaven and earth turned again.

He was pulled to the top of a mountain.

No words. In this trial, besides winning, it was death and the dissipation of the Dao.

This battle was relatively easy.

The opponent was like him, a pure Martial Cultivator, relying mainly on a strong physique and strength to fight.

As Ye Xiu, who had awakened the [Heaven-Breaking Martial Body], his inheritance Martial Skill [Pride of the World] was also terrifyingly strong.

Fighting against a Martial Cultivator who was slightly inferior to himself, winning was still very easy.

Cultivate... impact Bloodline shackles...

Repeating it over and over again.

The Cultivators in this trial were too strong.

Every guardian was almost on par with him, or even slightly better.

Sword Cultivators, Martial Cultivators, and even Immortal Cultivators and the Yao Race were among them.

In the seventh trial, that Immortal Cultivator was unimaginably strong. Although his own physique was not strong, the power of heaven and earth made him experience several desperate situations.

Although he won in the end.

It was only in a state of dying from severe injuries that he won this trial.

If it weren't for the ancient tower hall having an infinite supply of Spiritual Qi, fighting such an Immortal Cultivator in the outside world, even if he won, he would likely not have survived.

When the nine trial battles were completely over.

Ye Xiu, with a somewhat exhausted expression, began the final impact on the Bloodline shackles.

The [Primordial Martial Arts General Outline] was running crazily.

A crackling, terrifying vibration sounded within his Bloodline.

The moment the last Bloodline chain was broken, the first floor of the ancient tower shook, and Ye Xiu's aura climbed rapidly.

His blood energy shone with rosy light, and his strength showed explosive growth.

When all the visions disappeared.

The strength, which was originally only 20 Dragon Force, had reached a state of 40 Dragons, a full doubling.

Besides that, the defense and speed of his physique also showed explosive strengthening.

If he were to deal with his [Divine Void Realm] self now, he was confident that he could end the battle within three minutes, and those three minutes were still out of wariness for [Pride of the World].

After all, [Pride of the World] could increase his strength by five times.

In the [Divine Void Realm] state, he could also burst out an attack intensity of 100 Dragon Force.

His Cultivation had broken through to the Sky-Soaring Realm.

The hazy mist in the first floor of the ancient tower no longer appeared, and the gate not far away was slowly opened.

Ye Xiu did not speak. He naturally knew that with his current Cultivation, the ancient tower could not let him continue to trial on this floor.

Taking a step, he had already arrived outside the ancient tower.

Looking at the gradually closing ancient tower gate, he chose not to push it open again.

If it was a [Sky-Soaring Realm] trial level after pushing it open, he would definitely die inside; there was absolutely no second possibility.

After all, the guardians were all the most perfect and Peak Cultivators in their current Realm.

No matter how strong the [Heaven-Breaking Martial Body] was.

It was impossible to crush all combat power across levels among the same Divine Bodies.

Looking at the sunny mountain top scene.

Ye Xiu stretched happily.

This ancient tower trial took a total of half a month.

"I wonder how Tianfu City is doing."

He was worried in his heart and lifted his foot, preparing to soar into the air.

Just then.

The ancient tower gate behind him actually creaked and slowly opened.
