BXBX NOVEL Chapter 493 Titan Body.
Jiang Yangshi was dying with disbelief in his eyes. A couple of youngsters tricked him. The last sight he saw was a young man emerging from the pond, and then his world blacked out.
Shi Lang came out of the pond and said, "Brother Xiang, you will need to clean the pond."
Xiang San chuckled and replied, "Don\'t worry but tell me, how did you kill all these people?"
The terran sighed and replied, "Sword intent."
The answer surprised the two people a bit. They did not expect what Elder Yu said about Shi Lang was true. But soon, they turned around and found a cluster of body parts floating up to the pond\'s surface.
Xiang San shivered, and Xiao Nan emptied her bowels at the side. Shi Lang scratched his head and said, "Sorry, I forgot to make it clean."
Xiang San took a few deep breaths and calmed down. He said, "It is fine. Luckily, I have an idea about how to deal with these."
Shi Lang nodded. Xiang San was an immortal soul realm cultivator. He was standing at the pond\'s bank, and with a wave of his hand, the bodies swooshed up inside his space ring. The young man said, "I will go and dump these in the forest. The beasts will take care of the rest."
Xiao Nan and Shi Lang nodded, and Xiang San left. The lady wanted to say something, but Shi Lang waved his hand to stop her. The two of them did not trust Xiang San completely, and such was the cultivation world.
Xiao Nan aside. Shi Lang was wary of even his shadow ever since he stepped into this realm. He did not know this place. To think that someone who thrived on exploiting everything about his enemies was akin to an arrow fired in the dark. How was that for a transition?
Shi Lang said, "You should stay on the outer edge of the pond. If you manage to break through, then come up to the waterfall. It will be beneficial for you. I did not expect Brother Xiang to share such an opportunity with us."
He did not make any extra movement or secret gesture. Xiao Nan knew why because even if Xiang San had left, a strange spirit pressure was still in the void. It could be some expert watching over Xiang San. Shi Lang could not guarantee survival if they detected any disparity in their behavior and attacked.
He did not wish to die so soon. Xiao Nan caught his hint and commented, "True, this is a godsend. If I can figure out the method for manufacturing that mask, Tianxu Pavilion will thrive. Of course, I will dedicate a percentage of profits to third master Xiang."
Shi Lang nodded and waved his hand before jumping to the waterfall. However, no matter how hard he tried, the result was the same. The water curtain\'s force was fast, pushing him back like an insect trying to fly against the wind.
Shortly, Xiang San returned and found Xiao Nan watching Shi Lang intently. He could not help but ask, "What are you watching, Miss Xiao?"
Xiao Nan replied, "I don\'t know why, but I feel he is improving greatly."
Xiang San was surprised and asked, "What makes you feel like that?"
The lady said, "Count the breath and watch his muscles."
Xiang San followed the instructions and was surprised. After ten breaths, he realized that Shi Lang was growing faster. Xiang San sucked in a deep breath and began to learn from Shi Lang.
The terran did not know all this and kept hitting the waterfall. His endurance was tested with every approach, but Shi Lang did not give up. This was a tomb designed by Myriad Titan. A person with a physique that allowed him to break mountains with a punch and, at the same time, able to cast illusions so realistic that a person would not even know when they lost their minds.
Shi Lang would not back off until he had reached his goal. His body was changing every time he rushed to the waterfall. Shi Lang was cruel to himself. He controlled his blood flow using the things he learned during his time in the Federation.
The blood carried the spirit energy to the cells that were agonized by the pressure of the waterfall. He had lost count of the times he was washed up by now.
Xiao Nan called them both back to have some dinner. Shi Lang ate a lot and even hunted some beasts to eat more. His body needed energy to recover, and food was the energy source. Even the lowest-level beast was a spiritual treasure.
After eating his fill, the terran sat down at the pond\'s banks and began to replenish his spiritual energy. Most of it was used to integrate with blood and support his body during the noon.
He did not mind the other two and was immersed in his world. Xiang San sighed when he looked at Shi Lang sitting under the moon and cultivating, "I wonder what makes him such a fanatic?"
Xiao Nan shrugged. She thought briefly and asked, "Third Master Xiang, what treasure do these caves hold?"
Xiang San yawned and said, "Inheritance of an immortal sovereign."
Xiao Nan was shocked and looked around to see if someone had heard them talking. She glared at Xiang San and found that the young man was asleep. She sighed and stood up to cultivate on her own.
This was the first time she had come out to gain experience. She had the lowest cultivation level among the three. Xiang San invited her over to the expedition, her family name.
Shi Lang did not know, but how could Xiang San be unaware that she was the youngest daughter of the Xiao Family from the central plains, and she was sent here to test her mettle and grow into a strong and worthy candidate for the Xiao Family business?
The Xiao was one of the most reputed business families in the immortal realm. Many people owed Xiao Family favors and were very protective of their family members.
So, if any of the people developed unfriendly intentions toward them, the trio would deal with them, but if they were weaker, then take out the Xiao Family card.
…
One month passed, and now Shi Lang could stand under the waterfall for three hours. He did not know how often the water had cut his flesh, but now his skin was so tough that the impact slightly reddened it.
Shi Lang was calmly standing under the waterfall with his eyes closed and legs bent. Xiang San was also beside him. His higher realm of cultivation had helped him a lot. He was able to withstand the pressure for four hours. However, he was not proud of it because he had the aid of his cultivation realm.
As Shi Lang was facing the pressure of the waterfall, Xiao Nan was consolidating her golden core base. She was able to make a breakthrough the night before. Of course, Shi Lang was helpful too.
He sparred for two hours with her every night. Xiao Nan was grateful to him for all his help. She maintained contact with Elder Chen using a messenger talisman, and it found that the Ling and Xuan family had been silent.
Shi Lang was all too familiar with this pattern and said, "They must be planning something big. A snake does not stay still until it is sleeping or waiting to hunt down prey."
Xiang San nodded in agreement and suggested, "How about I call for a few elders from the Xiang Family, and they deal with Ling and Xuan families?"
Shi Lang shook his head and said, "Brother Xiang, that would not be necessary. The fourth prince is still the guest of the Shi Family, and the enemy will not be making any big moves until they find the coast is clear."
Xiang San nodded and sighed, "This is one of the reasons why I am not the young master of my family. My big sister is the Young Mistress. She is as strong as me, but her mind is sharper."
Shi Lang smiled and said, "It is a fortune for you to have a family and those you can admire, Brother Xiang. It is way better than living a wary life."
Xiang San raised his brow and asked, "Why do you say so? The Shi sisters respect you a lot."
Shi Lang smiled faintly and said, "In the upper realm, everyone with strength better than yours is respected and treated nicely. However, I come from a world where even the closest of your kin can betray you for something profitable."
Xiao Nan caught the hint and opened her eyes wide, "You mean to say you are an ascender?"
Shi Lang nodded, and Xiang San stood up from his seat. They could not believe what the person just told them. Suddenly, they all looked to the side at the thickets and sensed movement from there.
