I am a mortal who has achieved enlightenment through burning my secrets

Chapter 282 Tang Hao is Seriously Injured
After the training ended, Tang San and the others insisted on continuing their extra training on the spot, and even Yu Xiaogang did not mention leaving.

As the sun began to set, Xiao Wuji carried Xiao Wu, who was wrapped in a bed sheet, out of the barrier and saw a group of shrimp with flushed faces and hunched backs.

"Hahaha……"

Xiao Wuji laughed wildly and left the place with Zhu Zhuqing and the others following closely behind.

As Xiao Wuji left, the barrier dissipated, and Tang San and the others instantly transformed into hungry wolves, snatching the silk fabrics on the ground. Even Yu Xiaogang joined in and was beaten until his head bled.

Hearing the commotion behind him, Xiao Wuji said calmly, "This Evil Domain is quite useful!"

The ultimate evil domain is essentially the evil god power contained within the evil god bead. When activated, it is invisible and formless, and many people are unaware that they have been affected.

Back in his courtyard, Xiao Wuji had Xiao Wu recognize Liu Erlong as her godmother, and then, by changing his identity and seniority, he gave the mother and daughter a unique lesson.

This lesson lasted for three days, and it was only after three days that Xiao Wuji sent Xiao Wu back. Before leaving, he gave Xiao Wu a bunch of small gifts and told her to take them with her at all times.

After three days of revelry, Xiao Wuji officially began his seclusion. He wanted to completely master the "Wuji Heart Sutra" before the finals began.

……

Star Forest!
After spending half a month hunting down seven spirit beasts that were over 50,000 years old, Tang Hao finally obtained a spirit-type skull that was over 60,000 years old, but he was not satisfied with that.

Firstly, the age of this soul bone was far lower than he expected, and secondly, he wanted to get a few more limb-type strength soul bones.

After learning how to increase the age of a spirit ring, Tang Hao was no longer satisfied with just letting Tang San absorb ordinary ten-thousand-year spirit rings. If he could get more power-type spirit bones, he could easily increase the age of the spirit rings to thirty or forty thousand years, if not fifty thousand years.

However, his repeated killings have angered several beast kings in the Star Dou Great Forest, and he has also destroyed many of his soul rings while hunting soul beasts. Now he only has two soul rings left, one black and one red!

If he continues hunting spirit beasts, he will inevitably have to destroy one or even two more spirit rings. However, if he does that, his safety will be difficult to guarantee once he arrives at the Spirit Hall. After all, once his spirit rings have been destroyed, it will take at least a month before he can destroy them again. And there is only a little over a month left until the finals. It is hard for him to guarantee that he will be fully restored by then.

"Fine, let's just destroy another spirit ring. If things don't work out..."

This time, Tang Hao targeted a slow-moving, strength-type soul beast that wasn't known for its speed. Although its defense was strong, Tang Hao was still confident he could break it with a single blow!
Tang Hao carefully concealed his aura and flew towards the depths of the forest. Half a day later, a powerful bear nearly eight meters tall appeared in his field of vision.

The Mighty King Kong Bear was eating with its back to Tang Hao, which gave Tang Hao an opportunity.

"Killing God Domain! Ring Explosion!"

"The Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian - Tremor!"

Knowing full well the dangers of the inner circle, Tang Hao had no intention of testing them. He went all out from the start, weakening his Killing God Domain and amplifying his Exploding Rings. In addition, he could use the Shock Technique, which could penetrate the body's surface defenses to injure the internal organs. Tang Hao was confident that he could kill him in one move.

However, what he didn't know was that Tang Hao's killing spree over the past few days had put all these soul beasts in a state of high alert, ready to unleash their life-saving skills at the slightest sign of trouble.

The Mighty Golden Bear didn't have time to turn around; it simply used its soul skill to turn its entire body into a golden color that was even harder than metal.

boom!
Rumble!
A sudden earthquake shook the earth, and the land within a radius of several hundred meters seemed to have been plowed through, with countless large trees that required several people to encircle being uprooted.

But Tang Hao had no chance at this moment, because the soul beast was not dead!

The Mighty King Kong Bear's body was leaning forward at an abnormal angle, and blood gushed from its mouth and nose with each breath, injuries caused by a broken spine and ruptured internal organs. Even if Tang Hao didn't intervene, the Mighty King Kong Bear wouldn't survive more than half a day. But this also meant the bear could fight without restraint; since it was going to die sooner or later anyway, it might as well risk its life to take its enemy away.

Moreover, Tang Hao didn't have half a day to wait; in less than a quarter of an hour, other nearby soul beasts would swarm over.

"Roar!"

The Mighty Vajra Bear roared and then slammed out a huge, golden handprint that crashed down on Tang Hao.

Without the protection of spirit rings, Tang Hao could only harness the power of his spirit bones. His torso bones and his eighth spirit ring both originated from a spirit beast that had existed for 65,000 years.

"The Lord of the Earth!"

The earth and rocks beneath their feet rose from the ground and then rapidly hardened under the effect of the soul skill, transforming into an incomparably solid barrier. This soul skill not only possessed extremely strong defensive capabilities but also connected to the power of the earth, diverting some of the damage underground.

The earth trembled three times, and a huge bear paw print appeared on the barrier, but it was ultimately blocked.

"Haotian Hammer, Chaotic Cloak!!!"

With the barrier in place, Tang Hao confidently began to gather his strength. Little did he know what kind of deadly intent the Mighty Vajra Bear outside the barrier harbored!
boom! !

A small mushroom cloud rose up, and Tang Hao was blasted away like a rag doll. The barrier formed by the Earth Defense could not protect him at all.

Soul beasts are extremely proud creatures. No soul beast will allow itself to be captured. If severely injured by an enemy, a soul beast will choose to self-destruct with its soul power, taking the soul master who injured it with it.

To help Xiao Wuji obtain the two ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, Xue Qinghe not only selected small, easy-to-capture beasts, but also deliberately had their soul power exhausted before crippling them, and then destroyed their meridians and soul power. Only in this way could he bring the two ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts back.

Having finally managed to dissipate the force, Tang Hao rolled around several times like a gourd before struggling to his feet. Although the barrier formed by the Earth's Defense blocked nearly half of the power, the remaining force still severely injured Tang Hao.

Tang Hao was cursing inwardly, as if he had failed to steal a chicken but instead suffered a serious injury instead of a bone. After all, none of the spirit ring skills left by his wife were offensive. If he had just had one, he could have easily killed that spirit beast. Unfortunately, he didn't have any.

Carrying only the remaining soul bone, the injuries from hunting souls, and eight soul rings that were temporarily unusable, he hurriedly fled the Star Dou Great Forest.

……

Heaven Dou Royal Academy!

After spending more than half a month desperately squeezing out the medicinal power in his body and opening up countless tiny meridians, Xiao Wuji finally completed the cultivation of the "Wuji Heart Sutra"!

The "Invincible Heart Sutra" he created incorporates many martial arts concepts from his previous life, and it almost exhausts every inch of his meridians. Without the power of immortal herbs, it would be difficult to even open up these meridians.

The "Unfettered Heart Sutra" has only four levels, each requiring the assistance of a soul core. The cultivation technique can also operate in coordination with the soul core at all times, truly enabling one to cultivate whether walking, sitting, or lying down.

It is foreseeable that in the future, his cultivation speed will not only not slow down due to the increase in level, but will also continue to accelerate as the number of soul cores increases.

"Set a small goal: cultivate to become a Title Douluo within five years!"
