Chapter 73: No Way!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Heaven Trampling Elephant was not a Mutated Beast that elephants turned into after getting infected by the Beast Spirit Devil Insect.
According to the records, the Heaven Trampling Elephant had a very long history on Earth Star. It could be traced back to the ancient era tens of thousands of years ago.
It was a mutated species of the world in its true sense!
It did not evolve from ordinary elephants.
The real Heaven Trampling Elephant was born with innate divine powers and was immune to physical attacks.
At adulthood, it reaches a height of 10 meters and would be immune to everything.
Physics, energy, the tangible and intangible. Wind, rain, thunder, lightning, water, fire, poison, everything.
This was not all.
Other than being immune to everything, the Heaven Trampling Elephant could also counter gravity and walk in the air.
Walking in the void like walking on flat ground.
In the end, it could even go berserk and transform into a hundred-meter-tall Giant Demon Elephant.
That was the true pinnacle, the God of Death who destroyed everything.
Destroying cities and countries was child’s play. It could break even the continental plates.
Against this Mutated Beast, even a first-grade martial artist could only escape.
Of course.
The universe was fair.
An unbelievably powerful ancient variant like the Heaven Trampling Elephant was extremely difficult to reproduce.
Although they have very long life spans——almost a thousand years, a male and female Heaven Trampling Elephant might not even be able to conceive after 900 years together.
Even if they do, they would only have one child.
Therefore, since ancient times, there have been very few Heaven Trampling Elephants, and the number of people who had seen them was even lesser.
The Wei Family’s ancestors were fortunate enough to have encountered them.
This talented ancestor of the Wei Family had actually created a martial art by observing the Heaven Trampling Elephant.
That was the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven!
Every internal exercise had its own attribute.
It was either blazing like fire, ice cold like frost, peerlessly sharp, or as heavy as a mountain.
Or perhaps impervious to all poisons, grand and imposing, extremely domineering, righteous and peaceful, wet to the bone…
The Nine Steps Trampling Heaven had its own attributes.
Weight!
Simply put, the Heaven Trampling True Energy cultivated through it was extremely heavy.
This heaviness was not only limited to the weight of a mountain.
The characteristic of being heavy as a mountain belonged to the earth attribute. It was stable and imposing, and its strength had its limits.
In theory, there was no limit to the Heaven Trampling True Energy.
This was because the Heaven Trampling Elephant that it was imitated after could superimpose its strength infinitely.
The Heaven Trampling True Energy did not have any other special characteristics, only that it could continuously strengthen.
The amount of weight that could be added was equivalent to the amount of true energy available.
With such true energy, even without the augmentation of a fist art, a single punch could easily shatter a car, destroy a house, or blow up a human body!
Of course, it was not easy to cultivate the Heaven Trampling True Energy.
Firstly, without an extremely powerful physique, there was no need to even think about it.
Secondly, one also had to have Herculean strength, whether born or bred.
Finally, when absorbing the first strand of worldly energy, it had to be at the point where Yin and Yang intersected in the wee hours of the morning. If missed, one would have to wait again.
All three conditions must be met.
Su Jingxing checked the first two boxes, and the third was the time, so it did not affect him much.
The Nine Steps Trampling Heaven was an ultimate technique that could bring one to the third-grade.
Not all true energy internal exercise could not necessarily help one advance to the third-grade.
The majority of true energy internal exercises could only allow a martial artist to reach fourth-grade at most.
Su Jingxing carefully flipped through the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven and discovered that it could bring him directly to third-grade. This saved him a lot of trouble.
When he flipped to the last few pages, Su Jingxing was even more speechless.
This ancestor of the Wei Family was too amazing.
On the last few pages of the secret manual, there were actually two more secret abilities.
One was the Demonic Elephant Stomp. Through visualizing the Demonic Heaven Trampling Elephant Diagram, manifest a Heaven Trampling Elephant in one’s sea of consciousness, suppressing everything, including Martial Art True Intent.
Martial Art True Intent was a powerful ability that only third-grade experts could grasp. It could interfere with reality using one’s mind.
The Demonic Elephant Stomp is actually able to suppress it. It was unknown if it was just a bluff.
This secret ability belonged to a defensive ability. However, if one had enough soul power, they could also release it externally and kill other people’s souls.
That’s right, while secret abilities were great and very powerful, they were extremely difficult to cultivate.
Only those with extremely powerful souls would be able to do so.
Night Vision and Distant Vision could be activated using Internal Force.
But the Demonic Elephant Stomp consumed soul power.
The other secret ability was slightly better. It targeted the physical body.
Demonic Elephant Physique!
As the name implied, this secret ability could change one’s physique.
Once activated, one’s size would instantly double, and strength would increase by tenfold.
In the Demonic Elephant Physique state, one’s defense was invincible.
Although it was not as exaggerated as the Giant Demon Elephant whereby it would be immune to everything, one could still be immune to the attacks of the spirit weapons and most true energy attacks.
It was just as difficult to activate.
One’s physique had to reach the limits of the human body!
If one activates the Demonic Elephant Physique when the strength of his physical body had not reached the limits of the human body, their body would explode on the spot.
Even at the limits of the human body, one still had to eat at least ten Vitality Supplement Pills after transformation. Otherwise, they would be extremely weak for three days.
Su Jingxing was not afraid of this.
He had already reached the limits of the human body.
As for the Vitality Supplement Pill, it also was a body-tempering pill. Unlike other pills, the Vitality Supplement Pill is very gentle in the process of tempering one’s body. It would slowly stimulate and increase one’s strength.
The Strength Pill could do the same!
Therefore, Su Jingxing could transform into the Demonic Elephant Physique right now if he wanted.
He just didn’t know how many Strength Pills was equivalent to a single Vitality Supplement Pill.
Su Jingxing had to do some tests when he got back before he could transform.
Otherwise, if he was extremely weak for three days, even a little brat would be able to kill him.
Compared to the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven, the Demonic Elephant Physique was an unexpected gain.
He could use it immediately as a trump card.
As for the Demonic Elephant Stomp, visualizing the Demonic Heaven Trampling Elephant Diagram was too difficult.
Even though Su Jingxing could increase his soul power by eating the Spirit Accumulation Pill, so far, he had only extracted a few Requiem Cards.
He didn’t know how long he would have to wait until he had the Demonic Elephant Heaven Trampling Diagram in his mind to manifest the Heaven Trampling Elephant.
Therefore, Su Jingxing temporarily threw this secret ability to the back of his mind.
After returning, I should try to cultivate the Heaven Trampling True Energy first. That is the right path.
While in thought, Su Jingxing flipped to the last page of the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, Su Jingxing’s gaze froze.
Blank?
The last page of the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven secret manual is blank too?
Similar to the Eight Steps Rising Dragon, there were no records on it.
“No way…”
Su Jingxing’s heart started beating faster.
“Is this for real?”
On the last page of the Eight Steps Rising Dragon secret manual, the location of the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven was recorded.
Now, the last page of Nine Steps Trampling Heaven was similarly blank.
Could it contain some secret?
This is extremely likely!
Su Jingxing could not help but think more about it.
The Nine Steps Trampling Heaven secret manual had already allowed him to obtain a true energy internal exercise that will move him directly to third-grade, as well as two powerful secret abilities.
If the concealed content on the last page also contained a secret…
Wouldn’t that be even more outstanding than the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven and the two secret abilities?
“The ancestors of the Wei Family are too good at hiding things. Seven Steps Fist, Eight Steps Rising Dragon, Nine Steps Trampling Heaven, and there’s more!”
