Chapter 225: Two blows
It was quite large. For a private boat, this one was very large, with many rooms and entertainment venues, but despite that, it was very fast!
"Master, is this boat yours?" Tang Yin asked after taking a walk around the place, and she nodded as she quietly drove this huge boat by herself.
"It has been my private ship for more than 2,000 years. It was a gift from my mother when she was alive and it is one of the fastest-flying spiritual energy tech ships on the entire continent." She replied, and then, for some reason, she began to explain to him how to crew it without Tang Yin asking her.
It didn't take long for the ship to reach the mountains as it was relatively close, and once they were there, Shi Yue took Tang Yin to get his fourth spirit bone.
"Normally, I wouldn't help you get your spirit bone, but seeing as you are in such a hurry, I will help you. Of course, I won't kill the beast. I'll find it for you and you'll be in charge of slaying it." She said, and Tang Yin nodded.
"Master, since that's the case help me find a spiritual beast of the destruction attribute with lightning bolts. A Thunder Destroyer Tiger or Thunder Dragon Ape would be perfect. Or else, any lightning destruction attribute beast with 15 to 17 thousand years of cultivation." Tang Yin replied, and Shi Yue nodded after giving him a surprised look.
"Well, let's go then." She replied.
A while later, both were running through the vast forest while Tang Yin trailed behind Shi Yue.
'Hunting with a Spiritual Supreme like her is really a blessing. She can track in a wide range easily and she can also chase away all the beasts we don't want.' He thought, and just at that moment, Shi Yue stopped.
"Kid, you're in luck. There's a Lightning Demon Python around here and it's around 17 thousand years old, do you want it?" she asked, and Tang Yin was slightly surprised.
"A demon python in this area?" He asked doubtfully, and she nodded.
"It's young yet. Although it has a lot of cultivation, it's a Demon Python child so killing it shouldn't be complicated." She said, and Tang Yin nodded.
'A Demon Python doesn't complement my Heavenly Hammer very well, but the skills it bestows allow me versatility...' Tang Yin thought, and after considering a few things he nodded to Shi Yue.
"Master, take me there." He replied, and she nodded.
A while later, both arrived at the place, and Tang Yin looked at the Demon Python fixedly.
'Let's make this quick.' He thought and started running quickly towards the Demon Python while summoning his heavenly hammer.
Then, he gripped it tightly with his hand and in his mind, summoned two spiritual bones towards his feet to propel himself towards it with a spiritual explosion.
The sound reverberated through the area and alerted the Demon Python, who quickly went on guard, but unfortunately, Tang Yin was already on top of it.
Tang Yin quickly activated his Sacred Lightning Body and injected all his spiritual energy into his heavenly hammer, causing it to grow in size, and then swung it towards the huge python's body.
An intense sound reverberated as Tang Yin's heavenly hammer struck the python's body and destroyed the spiritual energy residing in its body as it forcefully pushed it into the nearby trees.
The powerful blow was accompanied by lightning bolts that immobilized it.
Soon after, Tang Yin fell to the ground and used that momentum to quickly propel himself toward the demon python as he cast his first skill, in its second phase, hitting the python's body hard...
*THUD*
A dull sound came out as half of the demon python's body was shattered into pieces, and blood splattered everywhere as it fell backward.
Tang Yin smiled at the sight and put away his heavenly hammer.
There was nothing a demon python of his same cultivation level could do against him with his heavenly hammer.
To begin with, one of the advantages of having a divine soul like his was that it was in charge of purifying all of Tang Yin's spiritual energy, and this purification was not that simple. It is a purification to increase his strength.
And better yet, it is a purification by levels. Every time Tang Yin increases one level in his cultivation, the divine soul will passively activate itself to start purifying his spiritual energy and once it purifies it, all that spiritual energy receives a bonus of strength, as if it has been enhanced.
This is one of the reasons why Tang Yin had to die at that time. After all, the more he cultivates, the more his strength will grow significantly, and there will come a point where no one can assassinate him.
And it is also why this little python, though powerful, could not resist even two blows from Tang Yin.
After all... 'Today is the day this thing finally culminated in purifying my spiritual energy and together with my heavenly hammer, which gives me such a huge advantage, there is really no chance whatsoever that this little one can resist more than two attacks.' He thought as he watched this with a smile.
'I should have no problem with facing someone at the Seventh or Eighth Level of the Spiritual Ancestor Realm unless they are a genius...' He thought as he tightened his hands on the hammer and noticed that his spiritual energy was running better.
Then he simply looked at Shi Yue, who had come to his side.
"Master, I'm going to start." He said, and she nodded.
Actually, she just felt like sighing heavily at the sight of this.
'What an absurd destructive power, what kind of treasure does he have? It's impossible to assassinate someone of his own level like that, isn't it?' she thought with a frown.
Tang Yin simply sat down and began to synthesize...
...
****
For NT: The question with the purification of spiritual energy with the divine soul is best understood as follows: For example, if Tang Yin at level 1 of the Spiritual Lord Realm does 100 points of damage with a hit, when the divine soul finishes purifying the spiritual energy, the spiritual energy (which is the force) will receive a 'damage' increase and now his damage will be 110 per hit (to give an example, the increase is not 10%).
