Seeing that Lin Caogen's soul power cultivation had broken through to the third level, Feng Gouhun sneered, "If you hadn't absorbed a ton of Phoenix Essence Oil, you would never have been able to climb the 40th level of the Soul Tempering Platform! A piece of trash with only the peak of the second level of internal strength cultivation, who hasn't even condensed his inner core! You've ruined all the treasures of my Phoenix Clan!"
Feng Gouhun started muttering to himself again under the Soul Tempering Platform, cursing heaven and earth and Lin Caogen! In the end, he even cursed the Phoenix Clan Emperor, Feng Xueyan!
Lin Caogen dragged his one-ton body and climbed seven more steps!
His body was already swaying precariously, and he was unable to stand steadily at all!
At this moment, he stood on the 48th level Soul Tempering Platform, like a piece of paper, which could be blown away at any moment!
If a member of the Phoenix Clan wants to climb this Soul Tempering Platform, the Thousand-Pound Drop is a mandatory course! The stronger the individual, the greater the downward force released by the Thousand-Pound Drop! It's already incredible that Lin Caogen was able to climb this level 48 Soul Tempering Platform!
If a member of the Phoenix Clan were to come to this Level 48 Soul Tempering Platform, they would need to be at least at the late stage of the fourth rank!
Lin Caogen's body has only reached the initial stage of the fourth rank, while his internal strength and soul power are at the peak of the second rank and the initial stage of the third rank, respectively. He is simply unable to resist the repulsive force released by the Soul Tempering Platform from the next level up!
In particular, Lin Caogen had never practiced a magical technique like the Thousand-Pound Drop!
However, the Earth-rank beginner-level immortal technique, Thousand-Pound Drop, is a compulsory course for Phoenix Clan disciples! As a result, Lin Caogen suffered a great loss!
Feng Gouhun knew exactly where Lin Caogen's limits lay!
He was now at his limit. If it weren't for the gravity of the Phoenix Essential Oil resisting the repulsive force of the Soul Tempering Platform, Lin Caogen would have rolled down long ago!
"What to do! The higher you go on this Soul Tempering Platform, the stronger the repulsion becomes! But the feeling of tempering your soul is really amazing! I've now climbed the 48th step! My soul power has stabilized at the early stage of the third tier. If I climb a few more steps, maybe my soul power can transform and break through to the middle stage of the third tier! The stronger the repulsion, the greater the temptation!"
Feng Gouhun sneered, "You little beast! I advise you to give up! The higher you go on the Soul Tempering Platform, the greater the repulsive force! This repulsive force will act on every cell in your body! The tearing and stretching sensation will be like torture for you! Even if you have practiced the Phoenix Clan's Thousand-Pound Falling Immortal Technique, your body is still just a weak chicken. How can you resist the stretching pain caused by the repulsive force!"
Lin Caogen sneered: "The thing I'm least afraid of is pain!"
Feng Gouhun's words, however, reminded him! His biggest problem now was that he wasn't heavy enough to stand firmly on the Soul Tempering Platform! He could endure the pain of stretching his meridians and tearing his cells; the key now was to increase his weight!
The Phoenix Clan's "Thousand-Pound Drop" technique is based on the principle of channeling immortal energy into the legs, which then penetrates the ground like tiny tentacles and roots. The difficulty of this technique lies in making the immortal energy penetrate the hard ground. Once the immortal energy is firmly rooted in the earth, the body stands as upright as a towering tree! Moreover, it is said that the higher the cultivation level, the deeper the released immortal energy, transformed into roots, penetrates the ground!
A master cultivator at the level of an Emperor can transform their immortal essence into roots that penetrate tens of thousands of meters into the ground. Such a person can unleash the full power of the Thousand-Pound Drop technique! Even a level 100 gale couldn't blow him away!
Lin Caogen had heard Bai Zhi talk about this kind of magic before, but he disdained to cultivate it!
It's too late to regret it now! But Lin Caogen has come up with a substitute!
That is to use the Dragon Sword!
Since the Dragon Sword secretly devoured the Dragon Soul Sword, its own weight has become 110,000 jin!
Even after absorbing a ton of phoenix essential oil, my body weight is only 2,000 jin!
If one could wield the Dragon Sword, their weight would reach 112,000 jin!
With such weight, it's possible to even reach the 108th floor of the Soul Tempering Platform.
Thinking of this, Lin Caogen directly took out the Dragon Sword from his Immortal Abode!
He gripped the sword with both hands and used all his strength to thrust it towards the steps above!
Originally, it would have been very difficult for Lin Caogen to lift the 110,000-jin Dragon Sword! However, there was an upward repulsive force on the Soul Tempering Platform that offset part of the gravity! Lin Caogen understood that the higher up the platform went, the more the weight of the Dragon Sword was offset by the Soul Tempering Platform!
Finally! Holding the Dragon Sword, Lin Caogen stepped onto the 49th step of the Soul Tempering Platform!
The immense and powerful soul force washed over Lin Caogen's body like a tidal wave, making him feel incredibly refreshed!
When Feng Gouhun saw that Lin Caogen had actually taken out the Dragon Sword, her eyes widened in disbelief!
He was a demigod who had traveled all over the country with the demon god in his early years, so he naturally recognized that the Dragon Sword was a divine weapon!
"This kid! He actually has a divine artifact by his side! And it's an offensive divine artifact! No! This divine sword can even evolve! This is a sword embryo!"
Feng Gouhun recognized at a glance that the artifact in Lin Caogen's hand was a sword embryo, which could evolve nine times and had already undergone its first evolution!
At this moment, Feng Gouhun's feelings were incredibly complex!
He is the spirit of the divine artifact Phoenix Tower, and his cultivation has reached the demigod realm!
Unexpectedly, Lin Caogen also possesses a divine artifact! Moreover, it's an offensive divine artifact! When this divine artifact evolves to a certain stage, it will naturally give birth to a spirit, and the spirit will be at least a demigod. Since it's an offensive divine artifact, the spirit's attack power will be much stronger than his own!
For a moment, Feng Gouhun felt somewhat inferior!
Holding the Dragon Sword, Lin Caogen charged straight up to the 66th step in one breath! At this moment, his soul power also completely broke through to the middle stage of the third tier! It should be noted that soul power cultivation takes the most time!
It took Liu Biao over a thousand years to cultivate from a first-tier Soul Master to the peak of the third tier! But Lin Caogen's Soul Power only took an hour to advance from the peak of the second tier to the intermediate level of the third tier! Wouldn't such a speed of advancement be the envy of everyone in the Alchemist Guild?
