With his eyes closed, Ling Xiao seemed to be able to see a ferocious Golden Light Flying Dragon standing in front of him. Its huge body was as big as a mountain, and it could easily squeeze him to death.
His face became deathly pale as his soul power stood in front of this huge Golden Light Flying Dragon, and he tried his best to calm himself down.
Roar~
The terrifying roar resounded again, and the Golden Light Flying Dragon opened its bloody mouth and bite him.
“Absolutely won’t retreat!”
Ling Xiao gritted his teeth. He stood still in the illusory soul world and let that huge beast attack him. Moreover, not only he didn’t retreat, he slowly took a step forward.
But that terrifying violent consciousness directly made him feel a splitting headache.
At that moment, he truly thought about giving up, feeling that if he didn’t give up, his head would explode.
However, he couldn’t give up.
He knew that once he gave up, his soul would be swallowed by that violent consciousness, and from then on, he would no longer be him, but would only be a murderous monster.
Keep going!
Enduring great pain, Ling Xiao’s soul began to gradually suppress that violent consciousness.
In the illusory soul world, his figure gradually became bigger, while the Golden Light Flying Dragon became smaller.
At that moment, the resistance of the violent consciousness also became the most intense.
Outside, bright red blood was already flowing out from Ling Xaio’s ears and eyes, which showed that his brain was injured.
However, Ling Xiao still didn’t cower.
The pain, instead, made him even more determined.
He thought, what if a real Golden Light Flying Dragon was standing in front of him?
At that time, he basically had no chance to give up. Without sufficient strength, he could only die, moreover, he basically had no possibility of being able to protect his loved ones.
Therefore, he kept going.
Only with perseverance, one would become stronger!
Boom~
Finally, after about fifteen minutes, the violent consciousness was completely destroyed, and the shadow of the Golden Light Flying Dragon completely disappeared.
Ling Xiao still had a lingering fear.
It was just a lingering consciousness, but it was already so terrifying. If his soul power was not strong enough, then he would have been forced to give up today. Otherwise, he would have been devoured by that violent consciousness, turning into a walking corpse that only kills.
When the violent consciousness completely disappeared, Ling Xiao body was already drenched, and his face was covered in blood.
“Are you all right, kid?”
Venerable Yuan asked with worry.
“I’m fine, just a trivial injury.”
Ling Xiao circulated <Heavenly Dragon Golden Body>, and the injured part of his brain was quickly healed.
He then took out water from the Landscape World, washed his face, and exhaled a long breath.
Although the battle of souls wasn’t as direct as actual battles, it was more dangerous.
“Master, I have successfully erased the violent consciousness in these two Refine Array Stones. Am I qualified to cultivate <Golden Light Dragon Wings> now?”
After a short rest, Ling Xiao asked with excitement.
“You can, but you still need to be careful. In fact, this is different from cultivation. It’s better to say that it’s directly implanting the divine rune of the Golden Light Flying Dragon into your body. This is very risky. The success rate is less than ten percent, so only a very few people do this.”
Venerable Yuan replied.
“With the success rate of ten percent, wouldn’t I be screwed?”
Ling Xiao said with a bitter smile.
“Rest assured, with your Master here, this success rate of ten percent will rise to ninety percent! In the end, it depends on how familiar you are with the law of refine array.”
Venerable Yuan said with a smile: “This Master is not bragging, but with regards to the law of refine array and law of alchemy, this Master is within top five in the entire Profound Realm.”
“Master, you seemed to have already said this before.”
“Cough, cough, so what if I said it before. It seems you don’t believe it. Wait for a while and you will know how powerful your Master is.”
Venerable Yuan coughed and said.
“Heh heh, Master, how can I not believe you? Of course, I believe it!”
Although Ling Xiao didn’t know the background of Venerable Yuan, he trusted Venerable Yuan very much. This was his feeling after getting along for a period of time.
Moreover, he also believed that this feeling wouldn’t change too much in the future.
“Okay, since you believe it, you should concentrate on condensing true qi wings, and leave the rest to this Master. You have already experienced the torment of the soul, now, you have to experience the physical pain. It might be very painful. Do you truly want to continue?”
Venerable Yuan asked.
“Why are you still asking, just start it already.”
For Ling Xiao, the torment of the soul was several times more painful than the physical torture. Since he had already overcome the soul pain, couldn’t he overcome the physical pain?
If he couldn’t overcome it, then wouldn’t he be too useless.
According to the content of the bamboo scroll, combined with the formula of <Nine Veins Qi Sword>, Ling Xiao closed his eyes and circulated his true essence. A pair of exquisite true essence wings quickly appeared on his back.
It was just that these wings were purely just a shape. They didn’t have any flight effect.
The next step was the key.
“I’m starting! Endure it!”
Venerable Yuan’s voice resounded, then he saw Venerable Yuan releasing the divine rune of one Refine Array Stone.
This bright rune was injured into Ling Xiao’s right true essence wing.
At that moment, the true essence wing actually became larger, moreover, became more real. The originally almost transparent wing turned into the black wings of a flying dragon, moreover, that flying dragon wing had golden inscriptions.
“Ah——!”
Ling Xiao suddenly screamed.
The moment when the flying dragon wings began to form, he felt as if his back was being torn apart. It was so painful that he almost fainted.
However, he didn’t faint.
Just as he said before, he had already endured the soul pain, what was this physical pain?
The tearing pain lasted for full sixty breaths, and he had already bitten a stone in his mouth to pieces.
To prevent himself from biting his own tongue, he had thrown a hard stone into his mouth.
Ordinary branches were no good, mainly because his teeth were too sharp and strong, not inferior to rare-grade treasured artifacts.
“Endure it, now, one side left!”
Venerable Yuan reminded.
“Master, do it, I’m fine.”
When it was the turn of the left flying dragon wing, although it was similarly painful, he didn’t scream, moreover, didn’t bite anything.
He became very calm, only cold sweat continuously flowed down from his forehead.
“It’s done!”
Venerable Yuan looked at his disciple and was full of admiration.
“You are really a tough man. You were able to endure it completely. I thought that you would faint during the process.”
Ling Xiao’s ability to endure pain was far beyond Venerable Yuan’s expectations. Originally, he was thinking if he should use other means to relieve his disciple’s pain.
But this kid endured on his own.
