Chapter 455: Martial Dao Will

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

The lava pool which had been filled with boiling lava was now dry and hard. The stellar crystal had already shattered, and the bottom of the former lava lake had turned into a pitch black space, so dark that one would not be able to see their fingers even if they stretched their hands before their eyes.

Deep in the darkness, Bei Feng sat cross legged without any expression on his face. One of his hand was bleeding non stop from wounds deep enough to see his bones.

"The martial dao will of this energy is an all conquering will, slashing through everything. Then, what is my martial dao?"

Bei Feng mumbled to himself. Countless thoughts and inspirations flashed through his mind. Fortunately, the Nine Stars Fruit was very useful for improving mental power and the soul. However, most of the energy from the Nine Stars Fruit was being used to support Bei Feng's state of comprehension. Thus, the amount of energy that went towards improving his mental power and his soul was very limited.

"Perhaps my martial will is also one that desires to conquer all? Or maybe it's to possess power that awes the universe?"

Bei Feng seemed to have arrived at a bottleneck, and he couldn't comprehend the correct path.

Time passed slowly, and although he had the support of the Nine Stars Fruit, he still felt a wave of weakness and fatigue washing over him.

"My martial dao conviction is to be free and unfettered!"

Bei Feng's eyes snapped open as a powerful mental power force shot out of his eyes. A flash of electricity erupted from nowhere and arched through the cavern, lighting up his pale face!

Bei Feng felt extremely weak in this moment, and his current feelings were extremely similar to how he felt when he was just a normal person without martial arts.

"My original conviction was to live a life free of fetters. But I ended up meeting the Myriad Heavens Fishing System, and my fate was rewritten. My body was repaired, and my aspirations grew."

Bei Feng thought to himself seriously. At the very beginning, when he was fired from his job, his only wish was to return to the old mansion in the countryside and live out a simple and leisurely life by rearing some chickens and ducks.

"But at that time, my idea of an unfettered lifestyle was flawed. I was just running away from reality, and from life itself. I didn't have any power nor authority, and my body was doomed to be crippled. At that time, I was like an ostrich sticking its head in the sand, and thinking that I could avoid everything like that."

Everything that he'd experienced so far flashed through his mind like a movie.

Although his body was weakening, his mental power and his spirit was shining with a never before seen radiance!

"What was the meaning of being free and unfettered? Was it to have nothing to do with the world and run into the mountains alone? No! That was not the true meaning of being free! That is only the self consolation methods of losers!"

"For a human living in this world, they have to adhere to many restrictions, rules, and conventions. Even by sitting quietly at home, trouble may still drop from the sky! To be truly free of all worldly restrictions, one must have great conviction and the strength to disregard the fetters of the world!"

"This is my martial dao, my will and my conviction, to be unfettered, free of all restrictions in the world, free to do as I please!"

Bei Feng's spirit howled, his voice traveling in all directions!

"Ka-cha!"

A light sound rang out in his mind, as though something was shattered.

His three cun tall spirit body instantly grew taller by one cun. His soul no longer lingered in the half sleep, half awake state!

A faint aura appeared on the spirit body, and in that instant, a feeling of the clouds parting and the skies clearing rose in Bei Feng's heart.

A wide smile appeared on his face, and a happiness that cannot be described washed over him, causing him to be in a good mood.

Half of Bei Feng's blood had already been lost at this time. Normal people who'd lost so much blood would have died long ago. But for Bei Feng, this was still not enough to harm his foundations.

The energy from the Nine Stars Fruit was still rising from his stomach unceasingly. However, the speed that it replenished his blood and Qi was slower than the rate at which it was lost.

The might of a faint martial will surfaced in Bei Feng's blood and Qi. In an instant, he felt a transformation in himself. It was much easier to control his blood and Qi, and wherever his will landed, his blood and Qi would follow!

This was just a small transformation, but although it didn't seem like much, it'd increased Bei Feng's attacking speed by 10 percent!

At this moment, numerous strands of blood and Qi which carried his martial will was twisted together like a rope and then hurled towards the injured hand.

"Boom!"

Two formless wills clashed together and without any surprise, Bei Feng's blood and Qi was instantly dispersed.

Bei Feng was not angry or annoyed. He had already predicted this long ago. His martial will had only been born a moment ago, and it was still extremely weak. Based on quality alone, it was not a match for this all conquering will at all.

However, this match of martial wills was held with his own body as the battlefield. The body was his territory, and the enemy will was deep in his territory alone.

The quality of this martial will was very high, but its quantity was too low. Bei Feng's martial will had only just been born, and it was very weak. However, its quantity was not something that this lone martial will could compare with.

Large amounts of weak martial will surged to the wounded area, and wave after wave of them were slashed apart by the all conquering martial will.

From the wrist down, Bei Feng's hand basically did not have any flesh remaining at this point. Only the ghastly sight of his blood drenched sparkling bones could be seen.

The flesh and muscles on his hand had already been reduced to blood mists long ago.

"If not for the Nine Stars Fruit this time, I'll probably be ruined here. The most ridiculous thing is that this is just a small weapon shard! The myriad worlds is truly too vast. Experts are as common as clouds, and even though I'm a peak existence on Earth, I'm still just an insignificant being."

Bei Feng could feel a lingering fear in his heart. If not for the huge amounts of energy in the Nine Stars Fruit, and if he hadn't managed to comprehend his martial will using the aid of the same fruit, he might have been forced to chop off his hand today.

One of the best things about humans is that they possessed self awareness,and has the ability to reflect on their actions. Something like self awareness might sound simple, but it's actually extremely difficult to do in reality.

The incomparably sharp - all conquering martial will was finally removed after a long time. The bleeding blood and Qi was also stopped. Large amounts of energy was still being released by the fruit and refined by Bei Feng.

The amount of energy in the tiny little fruit was shockingly abundant. It was even enough to let Bei Feng cultivate the Heavenly Laws Embodiment Technique to the second layer's grand completion!

But unfortunately, too much energy had been wasted earlier. Although Bei Feng felt quite regretful about it, the thought passed as quickly as it came. There is no weal without woe.

Although he'd lost a valuable opportunity to improve his cultivation, Bei Feng had comprehended a martial will from this unexpected incident. His battle prowess had even risen by 30 percent after this!

Clearing his mind, Bei Feng assumed a meditative state as he controlled the Nine Stars Fruit's energy to replenish his lost blood and Qi.

His soul and mental power also began to grow stronger as the cooling energy washed past his mind. As time passed, his comprehension rose as well.

Bei Feng can actually be considered as a dual cultivator. He walked the path of body cultivation and mental power refining. This was the path that he felt was the most suitable for him.

After coming into contact with the Myriad Heavens Fishing System, Bei Feng realized that his body had changed in some ways. For example, the Mixed Yuan Body was a secret art that had formed automatically.

So far, his mental power and physical body had risen side by side everytime he broke through. Naturally, he would take advantage of the circumstances and continue down this path.

But it was a pity that there were too few manuals for training mental power. So far, Bei Feng only had a single Minor Dark Sky Breathing Technique. But that breathing technique was only useful for increasing his mental power in the instant that the Star God is born.

Bei Feng's blood and Qi gradually regained their usual circulation. As for the crystalline bones under his wrists, a layer of flesh and muscles were writhing and intertwining as they wrapped around the bones.

It was simply akin to magic, and those super heroes with hyper regeneration abilities!

The blood and Qi of body cultivators were akin to large oceans. Their vitality was extremely high, and if one could reach a high enough level in body cultivation, it was possible to come back to life from just a single drop of blood! But of course, Bei Feng had not reached such a level. To be able to regenerate like this was only possible for him because he could rely on the medicinal effects of the Nine Stars Fruit.

"Hu!"

Bei Feng spat out a breath of turbid air and slowly got to his feet. His bones and muscles popped loudly as he moved his limbs.

Looking at his reformed hand, if one did not observe carefully, it was impossible to tell that there was a ghastly wound there previously. The only difference was if he compared both his hands, the new one would look fairer.

"The Heavenly Laws Embodiment Technique has reached the peak of the second level. My cultivation has also improved to the peak of Controlled Dan primary stage. My mental power has also increased, being able to cover everything one kilometer around me. This trip can be said to be not a wasted trip."

Bei Feng clenched his fist and tested the flexibility of the hand. Compared to the other hand, the blood vessels and muscles in this hand was weaker. But this was not a problem. As long as he nourished it with blood and Qi, and it would be the same in time.

With everything done, Bei Feng did not linger and rose into the sky. In the space of a few breaths, he appeared above the lava pool.

"Let's go, we're leaving."

Bei Feng did not say much, and directly flew outwards.

"Strange, the feeling this fellow gives me has changed again. It feels like he'd shrugged off some kind of burden on his body."

Indigestion muttered as it looked at Bei Feng's departing back.

Without much effort, the group reached the outside of the small mountain. A short distance away, the Tiger King and the White Bear was picking the lice off of each other's body in boredom.

The first thing Bei Feng and the rest saw when they exited the underground world was this hilarious scene. Bei Feng didn't know if he should be laughing or crying. The White Bear's claws were as large as stone mills, and it wanted to pick lice?

"Hou!"

"Wu- wu~!"

The huge bear and the tiger ran over to Bei Feng in a hysterical manner.

It was impossible to tell if these two were acting cute, or if they were naturally cute!

"Little fellows, do you wish to leave with me?"

Bei Feng's mental power morphed into a gentle wind, lightly sounding out in the two's minds.

Unexpectedly, the two actually shook their heads, not willing to leave with him.

Bei Feng retracted his mental power and nodded silently.

"Mrr~"

The Tiger King rubbed its furry head gently against Bei Feng's legs, its huge eyes blinking as it purred.

The White Bear used its huge claws to scratch its head. A wide smile hung on its face, but on the outside, that smile looked exceptionally ferocious.

"That's fine, if you're not willing to come, then so be it. I'll pursue my carefree life, and you pursue yours."

Bei Feng smiled lightly. All living beings had spirits, and their own free will. He thought that the two Demonic Beasts would follow him back, but that was just his own thinking.

"You two little fellows better hide well, understand? Don't get caught by other humans and get brewed into a tonic soup."

Bei Feng lightly rubbed the two fellow's furry heads and said.

With a single thought, two Demonic Beast dans appeared in his hands. These Demonic Beast dans were both from Third Level Super Demonic Beasts. Each inner dan contained 70 percent of the Demonic Beasts' essence energy!

"Ang!"

"Hou!"

The instant that the Demonic Beast dans appeared, the two little fellows' eyes nearly dropped out of their sockets as they stared intently at them with drool rolling off their mouths.
