Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 635: Tremendous Increase in Strength

Great Flame Immortal Dynasty Imperial Palace, a highly secretive underground chamber.

Xu Ping’an sat cross-legged, cultivating his Body Refining Technique.

His Body Refining Technique was taught to him by Cang Xue, a Divine Demon Body Refining Technique.

However, after acquiring the Dragon Race’s Body Refining Technique, he had improved upon the Divine Demon Body Refining Technique.

Now, his Body Refining Technique was nearly ten times stronger than both the Divine Demon Body Refining Technique and the Dragon Race Body Refining Technique.

It could be said that his Body Refining Technique was now one of the top-tier techniques.

At this moment, as Xu Ping’an cultivated his Body Refining Technique, he could clearly feel a majestic True Power twisting within him.

"After refining this technique anew, my True Power has thickened considerably, and my physical body has strengthened more than tenfold from before," Xu Ping’an muttered to himself.

Now, he was like a human-shaped Divine Beast, his body teeming with tremendous power.

"Since you are a combination of the Divine Demon Clan’s and the true Dragon Race’s techniques, I will name you ’Dragon God Demon’ Technique," Xu Ping’an gave the technique a simple name.

Then he began to take out the massive crocodile corpse.

The huge crocodile corpse instantly filled the entire chamber.

A rich smell of blood wafted out.

This was the corpse of a startling demonic crocodile.

Having reached the Tenth Rank Peak level, its Qi-Blood was incredibly vast.

Without any hesitation, Xu Ping’an summoned the Holy Sword and began to slice into the startling demonic crocodile.

The Holy Sword turned into a beam of light that, under the control of Xu Ping’an’s Soul Power, swiftly cut open the demonic crocodile’s corpse.

Soon, all of its Essence Blood was refined and extracted.

Having extracted the Essence Blood, Xu Ping’an did not hesitate.

He began to consume the Essence Blood, and an immensely powerful force exploded within him in an instant.

However, under the circulation of Xu Ping’an’s Dragon God Demon Technique, the Essence Blood quickly transformed into a pure and immense force.

Xu Ping’an directed this force towards his heart.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

Xu Ping’an’s heart pounded like a drum, producing a loud beating sound.

The speed of his heartbeat also accelerated suddenly.

But Xu Ping’an did not hesitate to strike towards the position of the Heavenly Gate.

The process was undoubtedly extremely painful.

However, Xu Ping’an gritted his teeth and persevered.

Each strike made him feel as though his heart was being heavily hit.

Luckily, his heart had been strengthened and could quickly recover from such impacts.

Time and again.

Xu Ping’an kept striking, and the Heavenly Gate gradually began to loosen.

"Boom!"

Finally, an opening was made in the Heavenly Gate.

At the moment the gap appeared, a powerful force instantly fed back into himself.

This substantially strengthened Xu Ping’an’s flesh and blood.

Xu Ping’an was elated and immediately ran his technique at full strength, wildly opening up the Heavenly Gate.

The crocodile’s Essence Blood was quickly consumed by Xu Ping’an, yet the Heavenly Gate was only opened by one-fifth.

This made Xu Ping’an can’t help but lament the sheer enormity of his power consumption.

If it had been an ordinary Body Refinement Cultivator, the Essence Blood of the crocodile would have been sufficient for them to open the Heavenly Gate.

But on him, it had only opened one-fifth of the gate.

Of course, the strength of Xu Ping’an’s Heavenly Gate was also dozens of times stronger than that of an ordinary Body Refinement Cultivator.

"Continue!"

Without any hesitation, Xu Ping’an took out the corpse of the Golden Winged Cloud Peng.

He repeated the process.

What made Xu Ping’an marvel was that the Essence Blood’s power within the corpse of the Golden Winged Cloud Peng was far stronger than that of the demonic crocodile’s Essence Blood.

```

Although both at the Tenth Rank Peak, the power contained within differed by a full twentyfold.

Thinking of this, Xu Ping’an couldn’t help but marvel at the power of the Golden Winged Cloud Peng.

With the help of the Essence Blood of the Golden Winged Cloud Peng, Xu Ping’an’s Earthly Gate continued to open up.

And under the refinement of this power, Xu Ping’an’s physical body became unspeakably terrifying.

"Boom!"

Finally, the Earthly Gate was completely opened.

An immensely majestic force swept through Xu Ping’an’s entire body, cleansing every single cell.

Xu Ping’an felt all the cells in his body constantly strengthening.

There was even a qualitative metamorphosis.

This feeling was as if his entire being had been reborn.

It gave him an incredibly wonderful sensation.

If there was someone in the basement, they would definitely find that at this moment, Xu Ping’an’s body was radiating golden light.

This radiance was emitted from his skin.

His skin was as tender and smooth as a baby’s, yet its toughness was comparable to that of a Superior Grade Immortal Artifact.

And all the muscles in his body seemed to contain explosive power.

His bones kept condensing, becoming incredibly hard.

Xu Ping’an casually threw a punch, and the void instantly formed a terrifying air cannon.

It exploded on a distant wall.

Compared to a Low Grade Immortal Artifact, the wall instantly caved in, displaying a vast crater.

"Such a tremendous force, this physical strength is truly terrifying," Xu Ping’an muttered to himself.

His bodily strength had now reached the might of a Tenth Rank Second Layer Realm peak master wielding the power of Dao Principles.

"Now that I have opened both the Heavenly Gate and the Earthly Gate, and can merge three forces, I wonder what kind of power they will form when combined," Xu Ping’an mused to himself.

So the next moment he began to try to mobilize his own Soul Power, True Yuan, and True Power.

All three powers gathered, eventually fusing into a purple-gold force.

This force was incredibly strong, far stronger than regular Immortal Elemental power.

"Is this the power formed after the fusion of three forces? It’s too powerful," he said.

Moved by a thought, Xu Ping’an used his finger as a sword and slashed out.

In an instant, the void was torn apart, revealing a massive Spatial Rift.

"Could it even break through the barriers of the First Heaven?" Xu Ping’an was incredibly shocked.

Breaking through the barriers of the First Heaven meant that Xu Ping’an’s power was at least at the Tenth Rank Seventh Layer Realm peak.

In other words, without utilizing Dao Laws, Xu Ping’an was now comparable to a typical Tenth Rank Seventh Layer Realm peak master’s full force strike after employing the power of Dao Principles.

How terrifying was this combat power?

You have to know that he is still only at the Ninth Rank First Layer Realm?

If he reached the Ninth Rank Ninth Layer Realm, wouldn’t he be even stronger?

Xu Ping’an was overjoyed, his eyes filled with intense anticipation.

"It’s just a pity that I can’t find the location of the Human Gate right now, unable to allow my powers to form the true Grand Circulation. If I could open the Human Gate, I wouldn’t need separate Cultivation Techniques for my Body Cultivation, True Yuan, and Soul Power – just one technique would be enough," Xu Ping’an sighed.

The existence of the Human Gate was just his conjecture.

But he felt that his deduction was not wrong.

Once the Human Gate was opened, his power would most likely rise to a new level.

Unfortunately, he had no clue where the Human Gate was.

He could only search for it later.

"Next is to study this Fenghe Sword Technique," Xu Ping’an said to himself.

He began to study the Fenghe Sword Technique.

Of course, while studying the sword technique, Xu Ping’an didn’t idle.

Three Cultivation Techniques operated simultaneously, with the help of Elixir, Essence Blood, and the Immortal Emperor Seal—his three kinds of powers were all being enhanced.
