Chapter Twenty: Disciple of the Wind and Thunder Golden Wings

  "Ah, give me a drag!!!"

  The Great Dao's origin calamity was not a fatal calamity, but it was even more terrifying. Ye Lin relied on his own trump cards and dared to absorb all the Great Dao's origin calamities into his body. In an instant, his entire physical body, except for the five internal organs, brain, and dantian which were protected by the Purple Extreme Heaven Fire, had all their cells shattered. If not for the restraint of the Purple Extreme Heaven Fire, Ye Lin's entire person would have been crushed and disintegrated by the Great Dao's origin calamity.

  However, the Purple Extreme Heaven Fire is indeed overbearing. Even if it's the Great Dao Origin Tribulation, because it belongs to the Dragon Elephant Origin Tribulation, it can actually absorb and merge all of these Great Dao Origin Tribulations into the Purple Extreme Heaven Fire, only allowing a hint of aura from the Myriad Dao Great Dao Origin Tribulation to leak out.

  However, it was this faint breath that shattered all the cells in Yelin's entire body except for his five organs, head, and dantian, the terror of its power can be imagined.

  Ah!!!

  The elixir field is infinitely vast, and Ye Lin once again cited the divine dragon's breath that he possessed, drawing all of the Zi Ji Tian Huo into the infinitely vast space within his elixir field.

  However, the frail flesh, without the restraint of the Purple Extreme Heaven Fire, is likely to disintegrate completely, making it impossible for him to cultivate his fist technique with just his willpower, allowing that one purple light column three feet in diameter to dissipate and giving him an opportunity to restore his physical body.

  This period of time is long, the flesh is too fragile, if not for Yelin's guidance on the Dragon Elephant Dharma origin to protect his body, I'm afraid that even if he were the reincarnation of the Heavenly Emperor, in this situation, he would still be doomed to die.

  However, Ye Lin's actions also had a huge benefit. Breaking and then establishing, under the blessing of the Longxiang Fa Zhen's origin, Ye Lin carefully guided the Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire to refine his body in the dantian, allowing the energy of the Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire to not only merge into every cell as his flesh recovered but also slowly merge into the origin of the Purple Extreme Heavenly Fire's great dao. At the same time, it merged a little bit into his flesh, and in all the cells of his entire body, the aura of the Longxiang origin was branded.

  During the Body Refining stage, a martial artist's cultivation is mainly focused on refining their physical body, with every cell in their flesh being refined. Now, he has obtained an opportunity to use the Purple Extreme Heaven Fire to refine his physical body with the primordial energy of the Great Dao, and his physical body has gained immense benefits, which are boundless. From now on, regardless of his innate bloodline, even if he only cultivates his physical body, he will become an existence that is absolutely more terrifying and abnormal than a divine demon.

  After all, the innate gods and demons of all things, although they are mainly based on the law of heaven and earth, condensing the yuanqi of heaven and earth into shape, but their physical bodies are only made up of the yuanqi of all things. Only their blood veins truly imprint the breath of the Great Dao's origin.

  It can be said that from now on, even if Ye Lin fails to achieve immortality through his cultivation, just by cultivating his physical body alone, he will still become an unparalleled and invincible figure who dominates the world.

  However, no matter how strong the physical body is, it will always be somewhat insufficient in front of the true origin of the Immortal Dao. When facing the entire universe, although it may be difficult to be killed, it can also be sealed away for eternity.

  Finally, Ye Lin used the Great Dao's original energy to refine his entire physical body, including his intact brain and internal organs. After leaving behind the Great Dao's original energy, this grand cultivation of his finally came to a successful end. Suddenly, the sound of dragon roars shook the heavens as the Dragon Elephant Great Dao's original energy stirred up the Dragon Elephant law, condensing the Dragon Elephant primordial energy between heaven and earth, transmitting the sound of dragon roars to celebrate Ye Lin becoming the first cultivator to cross over the complete Great Dao's tribulation.

  "Luckily, luckily within a radius of ten miles, all were isolated by the Heavenly Dao. Otherwise, with this sudden appearance of dragon's roar, I'm afraid it wouldn't take two days for the news to spread throughout the entire vast land. By then, the masters of various sacred lands on the vast land would probably all be drawn here."

  The old man with the broken arm looked around, and in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a wave of shock. This time, the Dragon Elephant Great Avenue had finally appeared in the world. If it were to be spread out, it was likely that even the entire Lianyao Mountain Range would be relocated by those powerful sacred lands.

  Moving mountains and filling seas is impossible in the eyes of ordinary people, but for cultivators, all of that is just a small matter.

  "Xing Tian, remember this, today's matter must not be spread outside, otherwise, great disaster will soon arrive."

  To be on the safe side, the old man with the broken arm had no choice but to give Xing Tian another warning.

  "Yes!"

  Xing Tian saw that even a powerful figure like Lian Shifu was so tense, and he immediately knew that this matter was going to be big. He couldn't help but be careful too, after all, it concerned Ye Lin's safety.

  Ye Lin came before the one-armed old man, bowed respectfully and said: "Senior, I have made a breakthrough. Please accept me as your disciple."

  Three days passed and Ye Lin finally succeeded in breaking through and successfully refined his physical body, which could be considered a great accomplishment.

  However, he did not forget what his seniors said at the beginning. Within three months, he would split wood into silk and break through the Refining Bone Realm to take him as a disciple. Now that it has not been a month yet, he has already completed these two requirements, so Ye Lin naturally will not forget such an important matter.

  However, things did not develop as Ye Lin had thought. In the face of Ye Lin's request to be his apprentice, the one-armed old man shook his head and refused, saying: "I won't accept you as my disciple!"

  Ye Lin's face changed, and he looked at the one-armed old man in disbelief. He had never thought that his hard work would end up like this. Thinking back to when he was practicing knife skills to meet his senior's requirements, he had chopped over 3,000 kilograms of firewood within three days. To break through quickly and reach his senior's Bone Forging Realm, he didn't hesitate to jump into a pit of flames to forcibly absorb the heavenly fire energy. He even ventured alone into the deep mountains for ten days and nights, fighting against the ferocious beasts that lurked within, nearly losing his life in the process.

  "Why?" Ye Lin stared at the old man with a broken arm, his face was very old, he wanted to get an answer, and asked: "Senior promised me, as long as I fully meet two conditions, you will accept me as your apprentice, why can't you accept me now?"

  Ye Lin really wanted to know the answer, he wanted to know why his seniors were unwilling to accept him.

  "Master!!"

  Looking at Ye Lin's painful expression, Xing Tian was also anxious in his heart and looked at his master with some incredulity. He couldn't understand why his master would go back on his word when they had already agreed.

  The old man with a broken arm waved his only arm, stopping Xing Tian from continuing to speak. He looked at Ye Lin and said, "Not bad, I did agree to take you on as my apprentice, but now, I've already done it."

  "Aren't you already practicing the Tianxia Thirty-Six Knife Technique? That's an ancient monarch, the Tianxia Old Man spent his entire life creating a world-renowned knife technique that is profound and unparalleled, enough to make you enjoy it for a lifetime. Moreover, the Zhan Tian Knife has recognized you as its master, with your increasing strength, you will find that the Zhan Tian Knife is not so simple."

  Huh?

  Ye Lin was taken aback, and Xing Tian was also taken aback. They both recalled that initially, the old man with the severed arm had indeed said so - as long as Ye Lin met his two conditions, he would teach him a set of knife techniques. In fact, from start to finish, the old man with the severed arm had never mentioned taking him on as an apprentice.

  That is to say, from the moment Ye Lin obtained the Heaven-Slaying Sword, the Old Man with Broken Arm had fulfilled his promise.

  "Tian Gao Old Man was a powerful ancient being, with unparalleled strength. Since you've inherited his legacy, you're naturally considered his disciple. Although I had sworn to never coexist with Tian Gao Old Man and even lost an arm at his hands, I have great respect for him. I once promised him that after he passed away, I would find a worthy successor for him. Now that you've met my requirements, you should formally acknowledge him as your master."

  Huh?

  Ye Lin and Xing Tian were both stunned again.

  It turns out that the old man with a broken arm was actually broken by Tiangong Laoren, which is really a big news.

  However, what's even more unexpected is that the one-armed old man was actually looking for a successor for the heavenly butcher.

  Suddenly, the one-armed old man's face turned black and he shouted: "Still not kneeling down to pay respects to your master?"

  "Yes."

  Now that he knew the reason, Ye Lin naturally knew what to do. He turned his hand and took down the Heaven-Slaying Sword, inserted it into the ground, then retreated a step back, and knelt down respectfully towards the sword: "Master is not here, so disciple Ye Lin will use the Heaven-Slaying Sword in place of Master, please accept my bow!"

  As he spoke, Ye Lin truly bowed respectfully three times in front of Zhan Tian Dao.

  "Senior, may I ask, has our respected teacher already passed away?"

  Now that I have already paid homage to Tiān Gāng Lǎo Rén as my master, it is only natural that I am eager to know where this revered teacher who has never been seen before is.

  "Tian Gao Lao Ren was a very ancient king who spent his entire life's blood to create his own knife path, and only when his lifespan was about to end did he hand over the Zhan Tian Knife to me, asking me to take his place in accepting disciples and passing on his legacy."

  After Ye Lin became his apprentice, the one-armed old man's gaze at him was somewhat complicated. However, when facing Ye Lin's questions, he still answered with all his heart.

  "After handing over the Heaven-Slaying Sword to me, the Old Man of Tian Gang began to close his death gate. Once he breaks through, he will become a powerful and ancient Heavenly Emperor, dominating the world from then on. However, at that time, his lifespan had already been exhausted, and it was fundamentally insufficient for three years. The hope of success was indeed slim."

  "Master!!"

  Ye Lin knelt down again and made a nine-bow salute to Zhan Tian Dao!

  Ye Lin's past life was a successor of the Huaxia Taiji, as a successor of the Huaxia Dragon, he attaches great importance to human relationships and etiquette. Although they had never met before, once a teacher, always a father, how could Ye Lin not pay his respects?

  Even the old man with a broken arm couldn't help but nod in secret as he watched Ye Lin's actions.

  The old man with the broken arm looked at Ye Lin as he stood up again and said, "The Thirty-six Knives of Tianxia are unparalleled in their dominance, and the technique you have cultivated is even more extraordinary. Originally, I had nothing to teach you, but there's always a higher mountain outside the mountain, and there's always a higher sky beyond the sky. Cultivation must be done step by step, so it's essential to preserve your life during cultivation. Therefore, in your future cultivation, you must find an ultimate body technique that will allow you to escape with your life in times of danger. Here, I have a treasure prepared for you by Tianxia Old Man - the Wind and Thunder Golden Wings. After refining it, it can grow wings on your back and help you soar through the heavens. If you find another ultimate body technique in the future, it will be like adding wings to a tiger. Now, I entrust this to you, and I hope you use it well."
