After absorbing the inner strength of several other members of the Song Family, the voice in his mind became even stronger. Sometimes, he had to recite the Ice Heart Technique to dispel the evil thoughts in his mind.
But now, it was different.
What is good, what is evil?
He was merely acting according to his true self.
Don’t mention the Star Absorption Technique, he could effortlessly learn even those Demon Skills that transform people into bloodthirsty demons, and use them without any backlash.
"The fifty million experience points were well spent."
Chen Fan sighed inwardly, glancing at his experience points. It had gone from 1.8 billion at the start to one billion.
"Enhancing the Sacred Heart Technique to Perfection should be enough."
He took out the Sacred Heart Technique gifted by Elder Wang and began to read.
After finishing this book, he wasn’t too disappointed. After all, Elder Wang had already told him that this martial art wasn’t as powerful as the legends described.
Things like immortality and resurrection were exaggerated words.
If it truly were that powerful, it wouldn’t be a Supreme Martial Art, oppressed by various other martial arts.
Its main function was to slow down the loss of longevity, indirectly increasing the longevity of the cultivator. Additionally, as an Inner Power Heart Method, it was also a Spirit Secret Manual that could enhance True Essence and Spiritual Power.
Chen Fan consumed approximately fifty million experience points and successfully elevated this martial art to the Perfection Realm.
At this moment, he felt a significant increase in his constitution, True Essence, and Spiritual Power.
Realm: True Essence Realm·Second Realm (38.6%) (+)
True Essence: 4643324/43804.75 (+10500%)
Level: 29 (0/1 billion)
Constitution: 411900
Power: 322000
Agility: 231600
Spirit: 6888600
Potential Points: 5 million
Experience Points: 0.5 billion
The additional enhancement ratio of True Qi increased to 105 times.
The total True Qi directly reached 450 million, close to his initial target of 500 million.
There was more than a day left until the Song Family would come for him.
If he exerted more effort in this day, he might have a chance to break through the threshold and become a Celestial Realm Martial Artist.
Besides this, his Spirit Attribute also greatly increased.
If he included tomorrow’s trip to the Awakened Association Headquarters to obtain the Observing the Universe Technique, his Spiritual Power would definitely surpass ten million points.
"It’s a pity that currently, I only have these three complete martial arts."
Chen Fan sighed lightly and took out the Black Tortoise True Skill.
If this martial art were complete, he was confident that with his current True Qi amount, he could handle a dozen Celestial Realm Martial Artists.
He opened the Black Tortoise True Skill and skimmed through it.
After finishing, a new line of information appeared on the skill bar.
[Black Tortoise True Skill (59%), Beginner Level (0%)]
This indicated that the version given by Elder Wang was quite complete, nearly 60%.
If he factored in his martial arts proficiency, the completeness would be even higher.
Chen Fan had an impulse in his heart.
He knew long ago that incomplete martial arts could also be practiced.
However, a slight mistake could lead to demonic deviation and backlash. Even with good luck and high talent, one could not harness the true power of the martial art.
But for him, his True Qi was abundant.
Just like the Supreme Martial Art Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect, it only required the consumption of ten million points of True Qi to be performed.
For an ordinary Celestial Realm Martial Artist, being able to perform it twice or thrice was already impressive.
As for him, he could easily perform it dozens of times.
Thus, even if he faced backlash from inner strength, it wouldn’t impact him much.
Regarding the more feared mental influence for martial artists, due to the Carefree Wander, it was even more negligible.
Thus, as long as the unlocked incomplete techniques had power greater than Giant Spirit Hand or Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect by one or two times, he would be quite pleased, even if the True Qi consumption increased significantly.
After all, sometimes, it’s just a matter of a little more power.
Just like that werewolf, he could withstand two Giant Spirit Hands, but if the power of two Giant Spirit Hands were concentrated into one, would he still be able to resist?
Chen Fan glanced at the remaining fifty million experience points and thought it was worth a try.
In a blink of an eye, the fifty million experience points were consumed.
The incomplete Black Tortoise True Skill hadn’t even reached the Perfection Realm, it was just Great Success.
Chen Fan could feel some vague and incomplete thoughts in his mind, like spear techniques and halberd techniques.
But the good news was that he did unlock a remarkable trait.
[Seven Directions Invincible]!
With just the name, one could tell it’s a downgraded version of the ultimate technique Invincible in All Directions.
Similar to Invincible in All Directions, it was divided into advancing techniques, retreating techniques, and killing techniques.
Naturally, Chen Fan focused on the killing technique first.
Seven Directions Destroyed, upon use, would consume one billion points of True Qi, splitting the body into seven parts, each performing Unparalleled Saber Technique, Celestial Destiny Sword Dao, Mountain and Sea Fist Scripture, Black Tortoise Divine Palm, Fierce Strong Leg Extreme, Harmonious Golden Finger, Armored Dragon Claw. These seven forces would balance each other out, ultimately delivering a strike with seven thousand times the power.
"It’s seven times the power of the Giant Spirit Hand."
Light flickered in Chen Fan’s eyes.
He felt that using this technique against a mid-stage Celestial Realm Martial Artist would probably result in a one-hit kill!
But the True Qi consumption was ten times that of the Giant Spirit Hand.
There was no way around it, and the emergence of the trait Seven Directions Invincible was an unexpected delight to him.
As for the ultimate techniques following Invincible in All Directions, like All Directions Destroyed and the higher-level Ten Strongest Dao, Heavenless Sword Tiger Technique.
He felt that if the incomplete Black Tortoise True Skill were elevated to the Perfection Realm, there was a chance he could unlock a downgraded version of All Directions Destroyed.
Ten Strongest Dao and Heavenless Sword Tiger Technique were still out of reach.
Without practicing the complete Black Tortoise True Skill to Perfection, these two ultimate techniques couldn’t be unlocked.
Even if they were unlocked, they’d be of little use.
According to the description, to perform the last two ultimate techniques, one needed to forge the Celestial Dao Battle Box.
As the Celestial Dao Battle Box had long been lost, unless he recreated the legendary Celestial Dao Battle Box.
If that were the case, Chen Fan had other thoughts.
Because both Invincible in All Directions and Ten Strongest Dao, Heavenless Sword Tiger Technique were created on the foundation of the Ten Strong Martial Dao.
Couldn’t he then combine some techniques himself? His True Qi was abundant, and even if the efficiency wasn’t high, he could just pile up the power.
One principle remains unchanged despite many variations.
"To complete the Black Tortoise True Skill, I still need Heaven-Questioning Spear Technique, Great Yi Halberd Manual, and Tiger Roar Staff Collection, these three Supreme Martial Arts, which are available in the Awakened Association Mall. The Supreme Martial Arts I’ve exchanged before were mainly cultivation techniques and fist and kick martial arts. Now, exchanging for these wouldn’t require many points. The downside is that these three martial arts are probably also incomplete."
Thinking this made Chen Fan a bit frustrated.
In this case, to complete these three Supreme Martial Arts, naturally, he had to seek top-level martial arts related to these three weapons.
If there were no complete top-level martial arts, he would have to settle for first-class martial arts, as complete first-class martial arts should be available.
Meanwhile, his basic martial arts must also keep up.
This was a very time-consuming task.
But undoubtedly, if he can unlock the Black Tortoise True Skill, he can learn Invincible in All Directions. Then, using All Directions Kill or All Directions Destroy would be more powerful and consume less True Qi.
He might kill several opponents upon encounter in a battle with a dozen Celestial Realm Martial Artists!
"Although difficult, it must be done, and the sooner the better. After repelling the Beast Tide, I’ll ask Elder Wang to be my sparring partner, helping me improve the other three basic weapon martial arts."
Chen Fan made up his mind.
Perhaps he could unlock the complete Black Tortoise True Skill before the great battle.
Less than two hours remained until the Beast Tide arrived.
He slowly closed his eyes and began to regulate his breath to restore True Qi.
