Chapter 88: Martial Saint High Stage, Power To Command Ghost Soldiers
This Blue Snake Gall’s surface was already extremely dry, seeming to have some years on it, unsure if it was the one Zhang Qishan auctioned from New Moon Hotel back then.
But Su Mo bit open the skin and flesh on the surface of the snake gall, and upon entering his mouth, a surge of bile juice came out, with a bitter taste instantly filling his taste buds.
Su Mo couldn’t help but be extremely surprised.
He didn’t expect that after many years, the bile juice inside this Blue Snake Gall was preserved so perfectly; it really was a rare treasure!
As the bitter bile juice entered his mouth, Su Mo felt a wave of heat rising again within his body!
Bloodline and qi flow both seemed to accelerate rapidly as a result, soon circulating a Heavenly Cycle, with the impact sounds from the strange acupuncture points throughout his body ringing incessantly!
Meanwhile, the vital energy qi body in Su Mo’s Qi Sea also expanded accordingly, rapidly reaching a massive amount!
Boom!
Vast qi and blood power, upon circulating a Heavenly Cycle back to the Dantian, expanded the entire Dantian once again, like a pool instantly expanding into a lake!
“You have broken through Martial Saint Initial Stage, reaching Martial Saint Middle Stage!”
A prompt sound rang in Su Mo’s ear.
Su Mo couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy in his heart.
He didn’t expect that just one Blue Snake Gall had already brought him to Martial Saint Middle Stage!
His gaze then turned to the Deer Living Grass.
Deer Living Grass, also known as Tian Ming Jing, has various miraculous effects such as clearing heat, resolving phlegm, detoxifying, killing parasites, breaking stasis, stopping bleeding, etc. Ordinary Tian Ming Jing is widely distributed throughout Huaxia and is not particularly rare.
But this Deer Living Grass auctioned at New Moon Hotel is different; it comes from Kunlun Mountains, has grown for over a hundred years, absorbed the Dragon Vein qi and Essence of Sun and Moon from Kunlun Mountains, and is a true heavenly treasure, even qualifying as a spirit of grass and wood.
With this rare Deer Living Grass, if an ordinary wild beast is injured, just eating one leaf can stop the bleeding and heal the wound!
Su Mo possesses Great Yin Meditation Technique and Zi Wei Guan Xiang Fa, so he naturally saw the extraordinary aspects of the Deer Living Grass early on, hence why he spared no expense to auction it.
Now that the Blue Snake Gall had helped him elevate his realm to Martial Saint Middle Stage, Su Mo rested briefly before putting the Deer Living Grass into his mouth as well.
Upon entering his mouth, the Deer Living Grass felt different from the Blue Snake Gall.
The Blue Snake Gall was extremely bitter upon entry and brought a yin-cooling sensation.
But this Deer Living Grass, after entering his mouth, brought a wave of fire-hot heat!
Instantly, Su Mo’s qi and blood inside his body were heated to a boil again, with the Dantian qi and blood boiling like a cauldron, driving the blood flow qi body to circulate continuously to his limbs and bones, while the strange acupuncture points throughout his body emitted continuous crackling sounds.
And Su Mo’s Nascent Soul inside his body also seemed to grow twice as large as a result!
This brought his Dantian qi and blood to a new height once again.
Su Mo looked at his own body.
On his arms, the muscles twisted like dragon tendons, and the skin trembled under the flow of qi and blood!
Su Mo then raised his hand, and with a flick of his finger, he seemed able to exert hundreds of jin of power!
Moreover, the qi body vital energy inside his body could be unleashed at will!
With a turn of his mind, the qi flow was controlled as he wished, ready to transform into a qi body stream surging out at any time!
“You have reached Martial Saint High Stage!”
“Seven-Level Pagoda Skill elevated to Third Heavenly Cycle, Red Level Futuo Technique!”
“Red Level Futuo Technique: True qi is abundant, external strength naturally forms like starlight silver glow covering the whole body, muscles throughout the body can be tempered into steel unbreakable, and protective astral qi can keep you from injury or pain!”
Hearing the system’s prompt, Su Mo couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy in his heart.
Just two medicinal herbs, and he had already reached Martial Saint High Stage, and cultivated Seven-Level Pagoda Skill to the Third Heavenly Cycle, Red Level Futuo Technique!
This Sky Lantern was truly worth lighting!
Su Mo then focused his mind and calmed his qi, slowly performing Breathing and Nascent Qi Absorption to consolidate the power of the medicinal herbs with his cultivation vital energy, before finally opening his eyes slightly and turning his gaze to the brocade box containing the Ghost Seal.
This Ghost Seal, to ordinary people, is just a seal used by vassal lords during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, possessing only some cultural relic value.
To the Nine Gates, it is the key to opening the Bronze Gate.
To Zhang Qiling, it is the key item guarding the Bronze Gate, connected to his own destiny!
But to Su Mo, it has a different use!
From the previous Ghost Seal he obtained, after gaining enlightenment, Su Mo unlocked Boundless Demonic Eyes and acquired a Shape-Shifting technique like Space Skipping Stone.
Now obtaining another Ghost Seal, he wondered what kind of enlightenment it would bring!
Thinking of this, Su Mo opened the brocade box and held the Ghost Seal in his hand for careful examination.
This Ghost Seal was extremely similar to the one obtained from Lu Wang Palace before, pitch black all over like ink jade, covered with countless ferocious fierce ghosts twisting into fish-dragon patterns, exuding an air of mystery and eeriness.
As Su Mo’s consciousness focused on the Ghost Seal, his vision seemed to suddenly plunge into a strange and profound space.
That space was like the Ghost Cave deep within Zaghrama, bottomless, with endless yin winds blowing below, and occasional wails of resentful ghost cries heard.
As Su Mo’s consciousness sank, countless eerie figures seemed to gradually emerge from the Darkness.
And they established a connection with Su Mo’s consciousness!
It seemed that just one glance from him could summon countless Ghostly Shadows!
“You visualized the Ghost Seal, Boundless Demonic Eyes gained new enlightenment!”
“You have obtained the power to summon Ghost Soldiers!”
Hearing the prompt in his ear, Su Mo’s heart couldn’t help but thump wildly!
Power to summon Ghost Soldiers!
That meant he could summon Ghost Soldiers?
While Su Mo was shocked, his gaze turned to the Ghost Seal again.
At this moment, strands of Black Qi gradually emerged from the Ghost Seal along with his gaze, and an extremely yin-cold aura emanated from it.
The air in the room seemed to drop accordingly!
At that moment, a startled cry suddenly came from afar.
Su Mo’s expression changed slightly, and he quickly stored the Ghost Seal into the System Space before turning and striding out of the room.
He saw Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pang Zi running out of the room in panic, their faces full of fear.
“Master!”
Su Mo looked at them gravely:
“What happened?”
Wang Pang Zi had a mournful expression, opened his mouth, and said:
“An eye grew on me and Old Hu’s bodies!”
Saying this, he yanked off his upper clothes, revealing his back to Su Mo.
Between his two shoulder blades, an eyeball-shaped red pattern had strikingly appeared.
Originally, after he and Hu Ba Yi swallowed the Kirin’s Gall, they cultivated according to the Breathing and Nascent Qi Absorption Kung Fu taught by Su Mo, feeling their qi and blood surging rapidly to open many strange acupuncture points, when suddenly they felt a chill on their backs, as if an eye was watching them from behind.
Both were startled in their hearts, looked back but found nothing, while Da Jin Ya nearby had no such feeling at all.
Puzzled, Wang Pang Zi pulled open Hu Ba Yi’s clothes, and this look scared Wang Pang Zi.
An unknown red eyeball pattern had appeared on Hu Ba Yi’s back, exactly like the red eyeball they saw in Jing Jue Ancient City!
