Chapter 0470: The Pinnacle of Martial Arts

Qin Yun hesitated briefly, then quickly threw the paralysis talismans towards the golden pool.

The Magic Warriors in the pool were awakened and attempted to jump out but were immobilized.

Xiao Yuelan rushed over and, in a few moments, beheaded over ten warriors. Her actions were swift, precise, and decisive!

She looked at the blood-filled golden pool and whispered, "Take care of this, will you?"

Qin Yun hurried over and removed the bodies.

The pool was filled with golden water, and the blood soon disappeared.

"I recall you favored the sword! Switching to a blade now is unexpected!" Qin Yun laughed.

"I use a blade to better learn the Six Forms of Wind Slash!" Xiao Yuelan smiled. "Teacher Yang has imparted numerous martial techniques to me!"

"How is she faring in the Moon Mystic Valley?" Qin Yun asked.

"Of course, she's doing well!" Xiao Yuelan glanced at the corpses and said, "Let's swiftly secure the other two pools!"

Qin Yun nodded. At this moment, he also noticed that Xiao Yuelan had replicated the power of invisibility, cloaking herself.

"Yuemei likely can't replicate your Martial Soul!" Qin Yun exclaimed in amazement.

"Her mirror possesses a Purple Gold Martial Soul and cannot replicate my Black Martial Soul! That young girl was quite vexed when she found out about my Martial Soul's magical power but couldn't copy it!" Xiao Yuelan whispered.

Qin Yun led her through the opposite stone door. As before, they quickly entered and effortlessly dispatched the occupants.

The water in this stone chamber's pool was white—it was the Dao Heart Pool, designed for mental energy cultivation.

The previous golden pool was the Dao Body Pool, used for refining the Dao body.

The people in the Dao Heart Pool were also demonic cultivators!

Qin Yun was certain that the people in the final Dao Origin Pool must be demonic cultivators as well.

These demonic cultivators were from the demonic bloodline families of the Demon Wasteland. They likely offered substantial rewards to the Qimen Hall to come here to cultivate. They appeared oblivious to external events!

In fact, not many people knew the location of these three pools; only the Qimen Hall's top brass here, but they were all eliminated by Qin Yun using Dao Pills.

After Qin Yun and Xiao Yuelan entered the final Dao Origin Pool, they effortlessly dispatched the demonic cultivators inside, as before!

The water in the Dao Origin Pool was transparent, imbued with an abundance of Nine Sun spiritual energy.

Qin Yun harvested all the Martial Souls. Those who could enter these three pools to cultivate had excellent Martial Souls, with many being Purple Gold Martial Souls.

"Let's inform Sister Jing and return here to cultivate together!" Xiao Yuelan said.

Qin Yun nodded, and they returned to the array base.

After returning, he engaged the barrier via the array base, sealing the pool so that others could not enter.

He and Xiao Yuelan could pass through the barrier using the Piercing Mystic Art.

Xiao Yuelan used the Sun and Moon Heart Sutra to cultivate together with Qin Yun, greatly speeding up their cultivation.

The two of them entered the Dao Origin Pool and cultivated together.

Outside the city gate of the Martial Ancient City, there were many Martial Realm warriors who had come from the Three Desolate Lands.

When they found out they couldn't leave once inside, they did not immediately go in.

However, many warriors at or above the 6th Layer of the Martial Realm were not afraid at all and rushed in as soon as they arrived.

Capturing Qin Yun would earn them a billion purple crystal coins, which made many Martial Realm warriors rush in without a second thought.

The Totem Pavilion, the Strange Rune Hall, the lineage clans, and the Spiritual Desolation Sects all tried their best to attack the barrier, but to no avail, and eventually gave up.

They had no choice but to keep sending people in, on one hand to find the reason, and on the other hand to capture Qin Yun!

To them, Qin Yun was worth more than a dragon!

Suddenly, several powerful figures from the Totem Pavilion appeared at the gate of the Martial Ancient City.

Accompanying them was a strikingly dressed youth in black!

The youth in black bore a circular black mark on his forehead, and even the whites of his eyes were marked with patterns.

His handsome, fair face and flowing red and black hair made him even more noticeable.

Some young scions of the lineage clans, upon spotting this youth from the Totem Pavilion, were taken aback and started whispering.

"He is Gao Shilong from the Totem Pavilion, at the 7th Layer of the Martial Realm, only 25 years old! It's quite remarkable to reach the 8th Layer of the Martial Realm at such a young age!"

"I heard that his totem is a natural totem, located in his forehead and eyes! No one knows for sure what kind of totem it is!"

"Is the Totem Pavilion going to send him in?"

"Not just the Totem Pavilion, many lineage clans have also sent their top Martial Realm disciples out of seclusion to hurry here!"

"If my family permitted it, I'd be rushing in right now! I am at the 8th Layer of the Martial Realm, and Qin Yun is only at the 3rd Layer, how could he possibly stand a chance against me?"

"If we capture Qin Yun, we can obtain his bloodline and totem!"

"The Sky Lion bloodline and the Sky Lion totem, the fusion of the totem and its matching bloodline yields an incredibly fearsome power—who wouldn't desire it?"

Gao Shilong stood at the gate of the Martial Ancient City, taking in the chaos inside, and remarked coldly, "Are those 9th Layer Martial Realm warriors all worthless? They couldn't even handle someone at the 3rd Layer of the Martial Realm!"

His words were full of disdain.

"Shilong, we've already briefed you on Qin Yun's situation during the journey, don't underestimate him!" a middle-aged man from the Totem Pavilion warned.

"He has spirit talismans and Dao Artifacts, so do I! There's nothing to fear! Just watch out for his divine powers!" Gao Shilong said, "Even if he detonates a Spirit Martial realm Dao Pill on me, I can take it!"

Other Martial Realm warriors were somewhat incredulous upon hearing this.

They all knew very well how terrifying the explosion of a Dao Pill could be, even a warrior at the Spirit Martial realm would face great pressure from the explosion of a Spirit Martial realm Dao Pill.

An elder from the Totem Pavilion, seeing Gao Shilong so confident, felt much more at ease and smiled, "Shilong, you have dual totems and dual martial souls, the only thing you lack is an inherited bloodline! If you can capture Qin Yun, you can obtain one of the strongest inherited bloodlines!"

Gao Shilong's mouth slightly curled, and he glanced at those lineage warriors, sneering, "Only the strongest bloodline inheritance is worthy of me, Gao Shilong! If it's those trash bloodlines, even if given to me, they would only tarnish me!"

This immediately infuriated those lineage warriors!

Gao Shilong's implication was that if he wanted to obtain a bloodline inheritance, he could always ask these lineage clans for it, but he didn't bother because they were too inferior.

"Shilong, the task of finding Qin Yun and controlling the Martial Dao Ancient City is entrusted to you!" An elder Martial King from the Totem Pavilion patted Gao Shilong's shoulder: "You’re the best, no question about it. Don’t let us down!"

Gao Shilong grinned with confidence and walked through the city gate.

A middle-aged bloodline warrior sneered, "He’s just a seventh-level martial artist, and he's the strongest warrior? There are many talented ninth-tier warriors who wouldn't dare to claim to be the strongest!"

Hearing this, Gao Shilong looked at the middle-aged man outside the city gate and snapped, "If there is a strongest ninth-tier warrior, tell me! I will stop at nothing to kill him!"

After saying that, he dashed through the ruins to search for Qin Yun!

The elder from the Totem Pavilion smiled and said, "Shilong has dual totems and dual martial spirits, both of which are highly compatible. Even against a ninth-tier warrior, he can still win!"

The power of the totem lies in totem martial arts and totem strength.

When mastered, it can be much stronger than the bloodline strength of bloodline warriors.

Most bloodline warriors do not naturally awaken their bloodlines.

They awaken them through artificial means, which severely weakens the bloodline strength, and the inherited bloodline strength becomes weaker over time.

The Mystic Patterns Hall and the Totem Pavilion are well aware of these things, though outsiders remain ignorant.

An elder from the Totem Pavilion looked at the Bloodline Martial Kings and said, "Aren't you sending some powerful bloodline warriors? With those artificially awakened bloodline warriors, you will never obtain the Heavenly Lion Bloodline." He chuckled.

A middle-aged totem warrior laughed, "Innate bloodline warriors are their treasures, used to inherit the pure bloodline! Especially those at the martial arts level, they are the most precious. If they die here, it would end their lineage of pure bloodline!"

The bloodline families were enraged but remained silent.

"Mystic Patterns Hall, what's going on with you? Aren't you sending more people in? Are you afraid they might die inside?" The elder from the Totem Pavilion taunted the Mystic Patterns Hall with a sneer.

"They are on their way! You should worry more about your Gao Shilong. If he dies inside, it would be a pity! After all, there aren't many innate totem warriors in your Totem Pavilion!" The Martial King from the Mystic Patterns Hall laughed coldly.

"Mystic Patterns Hall, you’re all fools, plain and simple! Originally, you could have maintained a good relationship with Qin Yun, and perhaps obtained his strange patterns, bloodline, and totem! But you were short-sighted and gave up this treasure!"

The elder from the Totem Pavilion bellowed with laughter, "That's just as well, otherwise, all the benefits would have gone to your Mystic Patterns Hall, and we would have been very jealous!"

The people from the Mystic Patterns Hall were seething with regret!

Originally, Qin Yun relied heavily on their Mystic Patterns Hall, but the higher-ups suddenly decided to abandon him, leading to conflicts and the current situation.

More and more warriors were entering the Martial Dao Ancient City.

At this moment, Qin Yun was like a prize everyone was after.

...

Qin Yun was hiding extremely well, training with Xiao Yuelan in the Dao Origin Pool.

"This place is truly a holy land for warriors, allowing us to boost our cultivation steadily!" Qin Yun felt his power continuously increasing and exclaimed in amazement.

"It seems we can quickly reach the fifth level of martial arts!" Xiao Yuelan was also excited and smiled, "Xiao Yun, let’s train in the Martial Dao Ancient City and together reach the ninth level of martial arts!"
