Chapter 231: Cultivation Level and Combat Power Ceiling

In the underground plain.

Liu Lanqing and the others had already changed into the Mud Fruit armor like Lin Yan.

There were a total of ten people in the group, but there were only nine Mud Fruits. As for Lin Yan, he put on two, so only seven other people wore the Mud Fruit armor.

Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue were powerful, so they gave the Mud Fruits to others.

Ning Xiaohui carefully placed the Mud Fruit in front of her. At first, she felt a little disgusted, but when she tried to run and jump, she realized that the Mud Fruit was extremely docile. It was not dangerous but very lively. However, she was excited and found it very interesting.

Liu Lanqing pressed her hand against the flames and stared at the few of them wearing the Mud Fruit clones. After seeing that they were fine, he heaved a sigh of relief.

“Can this thing really deter the Corpse Buddha Cockroach?”

Ling Shuangxue still found it unbelievable.

“Won't we know if we try? However, we have to be careful when we move. Don't make a big commotion.”

The ten of them began to walk deeper into the forest. Along the way, they naturally encountered other people from the prefecture capital. They saw their strange outfits at a glance.

“What's this?”

“Where did it come from!”

However, everyone naturally did not explain further and headed straight into the depths of the forest.

When they encountered the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches along the way, they would avoid them from afar and did not dare to approach them at all. This made Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue's eyes light up.

Although they were powerful, there were many Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, which might even break their anti-poison suits. That would be troublesome.

Now that they had scared away all these Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, the efficiency of their exploration was much higher.

All the way to the lake, Lin Yan approached the lake. When a Poison-Toothed Trout jumped out of the water, he captured it and threw it in the middle for Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue to identify.

“It's indeed a Poison-Toothed Trout, but it's much bigger.”

After testing the bite force of the Poison-Toothed Trout, everyone's expressions changed.

As true Noble Realm experts, everyone could be said to be omnipotent and powerful. A mere Poison-Toothed Trout could not hurt them.

However, what if there were tens of thousands of fish surrounding them?

Even if they could withstand it with force, they were wearing fragile anti-poison suits!

This thing would immediately break into pieces after being scratched by the Poison-Toothed Trout!

“It's troublesome. According to Lin Yan, there are thousands of

Poison-Toothed Trouts. Then we can't swim underwater at all…”

We don't have to go underwater.”

At this moment, Ling Shuangxue interrupted everyone's discussion. She walked to the lake, opened her palm, and blew gently at the lake.

A cold air sprayed out from his palm and landed on the surface of the lake. On the shore, a solid piece of ice was frozen.

Ling Shuangxue took a step forward on the ice. She stepped on it and waved her hand. The two Poison-Toothed Trouts that had jumped out of the water and rushed towards her were frozen into ice sculptures and fell into the water.

Let's go. Remember to follow me closely. Follow the ice and pay attention to the movements underwater.”

She took a step forward and stepped on the ice of the lake. She actually froze a piece of the lake under her feet. A solid ice path spread out from under her feet.

“Impressive!”

“As expected of Teacher Ling!”

Let's go!”

The people from the Qianyuan Academy naturally praised him and immediately followed. Liu Lanqing also snorted and waved his hand, indicating for the people from the Demon Suppression Division to follow.

Ling Shuangxue did not walk fast. The ice path under her feet slowly extended.

When they approached the jade pillar, the Poison-Toothed Trouts naturally surged out and jumped out of the water. However, everyone was at the Noble Realm. They raised their hands and shot their force into the air, making the fish land into the water one after another. Soon, they arrived at the first jade pillar.

“White Jade Fire Lotus. That's the right name. It's a Black Grade Unusual Item…”

There was only one White Jade Fire Lotus on the spacious jade pillar platform, but the few of them did not find it strange. They only felt that it was normal for a jade pillar to have one fire lotus.

The subsequent collection process was abnormally smooth. With Ling Shuangxue in the lead, they walked along the ice path on the lake and extended all the way to the jade pillars to collect fire lotuses.

In just two to four hours, the few of them had come to dozens of jade pillars and gathered nearly a hundred White Jade Fire Lotuses.

Everyone was naturally exceptionally happy.

Only Lin Yan followed behind silently.

The jade pillars that they were walking on were all the ones he had plundered. There were only one or two White Jade Fire Lotuses left on each of them.

They advanced triumphantly.

She was moving towards her next goal.

Ling Shuangxue suddenly raised her hand, and Liu Lanqing's expression turned solemn, indicating for everyone to stop.

On the other side of the lake, a huge shadow suddenly rose.

It was the gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach!

Lin Yan's entire body tensed up slightly. There were more people this time, unlike the last time when he was alone. There were too many targets, so they attracted the Corpse Buddha Cockroach's attention!

“There are many of us this time, and we're far from it. Furthermore, there's also the Corpse Buddha Cockroach's natural enemy, the Poison-Toothed Trout. Be careful and slowly retreat along the original path…”

The gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach bent its body slightly and aimed at them. Then, dozens of huge pitch-black blobs suddenly exploded on both sides of its body and shot towards them!

However, this time, the distance was far, so although everyone was shocked, they did not panic. Liu Lanqing calmly commanded, “Hit them into the water from afar!”

The power of the Noble Realm struck out from afar and hit these huge sarcomas one after another. While breaking through the outer layer, it also caused them to fall into the water.

In an instant, the lake water immediately boiled. Lin Yan could see that the enlarged version of the facehugger monster he had seen last time had hatched in the blob ball. However, as soon as it appeared, before it could move, it was drowned by countless Poison-Toothed Trouts that pounced on it. They ate and bit it before falling into the lake, leaving only layers of white bubbles.

Liu Lanqing narrowed her eyes and looked at the gigantic Corpse Buddha

Cockroach in the distance. She snorted coldly. “It's impolite not to reciprocate…”

She leaned back her right hand and made a throwing gesture. Suddenly, a terrifying scarlet flame surged out of her palm. Then, it gathered and condensed into a dark red fire ball in her palm.

“How about this move!”

BANG!

The fireball pierced through the air and crossed the distance of the lake, flying straight towards the gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach's head.

However, the gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach did not dodge. A hint of mockery appeared on its huge head.

The dark red fireball hit the insect's head directly. A huge scarlet flame suddenly exploded and enveloped the head.

And yet…

The gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach only shook its head slightly. The terrifying scarlet flames were shaken down from its head. Other than a little pitch-black color, it was not injured at all!

However, everyone could clearly see that this was definitely not because the power of the scarlet flames was insufficient!

This was because after the flames fell to the ground, they directly ignited a group of Corpse Buddha Cockroaches that were clearly one size larger around the gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach. They howled and burned into charcoal!

Liu Lanqing's gaze slowly turned serious. “I didn't even break through its defense… This gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach is actually not a good-for-nothing. It's actually a ferocious demon that stands at the top of the food chain…”

Although she was far away and the power of her force had weakened, she could not even break through its defense. Even if she attacked it face-to-face, it would probably not be effective.

Fortunately, the gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach only fired the tumors, but it didn't do anything else. It didn't enter the water either. It only roared threateningly at everyone before crawling down again and hiding in the depths of the forest.

Lin Yan remembered that this gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach had appeared three times in a row. It seemed to be in the same place.

Could it be that this gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach could not move?

Ling Shuangxue's brows also sank as she revealed an incredulous expression. “It's no wonder there are so many Black Grade Unusual Items. With such a ferocious demon present, it's naturally not an ordinary place.

“Let's retreat for the time being.

“Such a huge monster is almost invincible in the world. It's not easy for humans to defeat it. Fortunately, it didn't enter the water. Otherwise, we would be in big trouble.”

Everyone retreated in unison and carefully left.

When he was far enough away from the gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach, Lin Yan couldn't help but ask, “Issuer Liu, Teacher Ling, what do you mean by almost invincible?”

Ling Shuangxue glanced at him and said lightly, “Exactly what it means.”

Lin Yan frowned slightly. “I don't quite understand. Could it be that people at the Wondrous Realm or even higher realms are not a match for this gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach?”

Ling Shuangxue raised her brows. “It's no wonder. You're from the lower city, so you naturally don't know this martial arts common sense. I'll tell you today.

“There are two realms above the Strength Realm, the Tough Realm, and the Noble Realm in martial arts. There are also… only two realms. They are the Wondrous Realm and the Heart Realm!”

“Only two realms?”

“That's right. The Heart Realm is the highest realm of martial arts.”

Wondrous Realm, Heart Realm…

Lin Yan still remembered hearing about the Wondrous Realm the last time. It was said to be related to the so-called Force True Form.

He had also heard of the Heart Spirit and the Heart Spirit Seed.

He did not expect that this was the end and everything of martial arts.

He inexplicably felt awkward and disappointed. He took a deep breath and continued to ask, “Are people at the Wondrous Realm and the Heart Realm not a match for that gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach?”

Ling Shuangxue looked at Lin Yan again.

“Why? Am I wrong?”

Ling Shuangxue smiled slightly. “Your question is right, but you made a mistake of common sense.”

She raised her hand, and a dense chill surged out of her palm. “Who told you that the Wondrous Realm and the Heart Realm are definitely stronger than the Noble Realm?”

“…What?”

Ling Shuangxue smiled faintly and said, “The Wondrous Realm requires one to experience the Wondrous True Force and form the true form of the force, causing the force to have spirituality and greatly increase the flexibility of attack.

“The Heart Realm is even more difficult. Only those with great wisdom and boldness can achieve it. You need to understand your own heart and let the spirit in your heart manifest. In the end, you have to fuse it with the force true form and melt it into a heart seed. Only then can you achieve it.

“In a thousand Noble Realms, only one can break through to the Wondrous Realm.

“And not even one in a thousand Wondrous Realms can break through to the Heart Realm.”

Lin Yan was even more puzzled. “Since it's so difficult to reach the next realm, logically speaking, the increase in strength should be very huge, right?”

“On the contrary,” Ling Shuangxue said calmly. “The Wondrous Realm increases the strength of the Noble Realm by no more than 10%. The Heart Realm increases strength by no more than 10% too!”

Lin Yan's eyes immediately widened. “How can this be?”

Ling Shuangxue said meaningfully, “Why wouldn't it be like this?”

Lin Yan was speechless for a moment. There was no need for Ling Shuangxue to lie to him. It was very likely that this was the truth!

That's right. Why was it that the higher one's realm was, the stronger they would be?

Just like in his previous life, there were high and low levels of comprehension, but was it related to the strength of the person?

Confucius was a scholar, but he was weaker than a group of soldiers who didn't even know the words.

For a multimillionaire who had made a fortune by luck, was his realm higher than a beggar wandering the world by the roadside?

The level of one's cultivation realm had nothing to do with strength!

He slowly exhaled and said in a low voice, “So, the Noble Realm is the realm that truly distinguishes the combat strength? Jade Grade Noble Realm experts like Teacher Ling and Liu Zhang are the top combat strength in this world?!”

Ling Shuangxue and Liu Lanqing looked at each other and said indifferently, “Although what you said is not comprehensive, the general meaning is still correct.. It should be said that the Jade Grade Noble Realm is the top combat power among humans!”
