=====================

Now, coming to the third way of increasing one’s combat capabilities. The Spiritual Essense refining technique.

As earlier mentioned, when humans step into the Transformation realm and reach the Human stage, they can manifest Spiritual qi from their body into the outside world. And use it to attack their targets who are away from them.

For example, when Ethan used his ‘Scorching sword Slash’, he gathered spiritual qi outside his body and attacked Orochi who was few meters away from him.

But it must be noted that everyone will have a limited Spiritual Qi [For Transformation Realm] and Spiritual Essence [For the Royalty realm]. This means that when Ethan used his ‘Scorching sword slash’, he has been consuming his Spiritual Qi. And he can only use that attack a few times and then his body will run out of Spiritual Qi. And then he can only fight with his physical body or wait for Orochi to send him to the afterlife. And if he does not want to face the problem of shortage of Spiritual qi, he must quickly recover it by taking some Spiritual recovery pills.

But still, it will take some time to recover and by then Orochi would have already sent him to the afterlife.

So, in a battle like this either you must possess more spiritual QI than your opponent or you must finish the battle quickly.

To increase the limit of one’s Spiritual qi, the normal and common way of doing that is by increasing one’s cultivation, and then naturally the capacity of storing spiritual qi will increase.

But there is another way by which one can increase the spiritual qi amount stored in the body. That is by making their Spiritual qi purer, thicker, and more condensed.

And the Spiritual Essense refining method mentioned is a method by which a Royalty realm human can make his Spiritual Essence stronger, thicker, purer, and condensed.

As earlier mentioned, many fighting techniques use Spiritual Qi to form an attack. So, if a person has practiced the Spiritual Essense refining method, then his attacks will be stronger and the number of attacks performed will increase.

For example, if Ethan had practiced a similar method, then the attack power of his ‘Scorching sword slash’ would be stronger due to the purity of his Spiritual Qi, and the number of times he can perform it would also increase. If originally, he is able to perform the ‘Scorching sword slash’ a dozen times then, after practicing the Refining technique, he can perform it more than 15 times.

That's how useful the Spiritual Essense refining method is.

But the Spiritual Essense refining method is only useful for those who have reached the Royalty realm.

Although it is only useful for the Royalty realm powerhouse, Orochi is not disappointed by this, because he has the confidence that in a couple of years he can reach that realm, and at that time it will be useful to him.

So, he was extremely eager to obtain the inheritance. As for the ‘Martial Art Symbol’, although he failed to get any information on it, it doesn’t mean that he won’t get any information in the future. And just the Spiritual Essence Refining method is so awesome, then how awesome would the ‘Martial Art Symbol’ be?

Thinking about this, Orochi is determined to take the inheritance.

Looking at Orochi’s eagerness to get the inheritance, June frowned for a moment and said,

“Think carefully before you make a decision. It is extremely dangerous to take such risks.”

Although, there isn’t much relation between her and Orochi, and normally she wouldn’t even care if anything happened to him. But unfortunately, he is the husband of her niece Armelia. So, if anything happened to him, then her niece will go into depression and she doesn’t want that to happen. And due to the marriage, in some way, Orochi is also a member of her family, so she was somewhat worried about his decision.

When Orochi heard June’s words, he smiled at her and said,

“It’s Ok aunt June. I have to get this inheritance to get stronger. Although the price paid is huge, I feel it is worth it. And anyway, in the future, there will be some friction between me and the Frozen palace, so it doesn’t matter.”

Hearing this, June did not speak anymore.

“Then let me also participate in getting the inheritance, like that I can share the pressure.”

But Armelia quickly shouted from the side.

When Orochi heard this, he looked at Armelia and said in a firm tone,

“No. It's enough for me to take on the curse in exchange for the inheritance. But if you also take part, then you too will get implicated in this. I can risk my life, but I will not put your life in danger.”

Seeing that Armelia still wanted to refute,

Orochi sharply interrupted her and said,

“Armelia, I have made my decision. If you still continue being stubborn then I will ask Aunt June to take you back to the Lamia tribe and I will continue my journey out of the Dark Forest.”

Hearing Orochi’s firm tone, Armelia couldn’t open her mouth, and to express her grievances she started pouting.

“Hmph”

Seeing her act so childishly, Orochi’s strict character disappeared and he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry after looking at Armelia’s expression.

Then he said in a soft tone,

“I know that you want to share my pressure. So, after I obtain the inheritance, anyway I will share it with you and both of us can quickly become stronger. Like this, you won’t be forced to take the risk, but instead, you can help me fight those two superpowers. Isn't that a great deal?”

When Armelia heard Orochi’s reason, her eyes immediately lit up, then she quickly said

“This is what you said. If you dare to go back on your words, I will stop talking to you. Hmph”

Looking at Armelia’s expression, he felt like he was forced to say the previous words. Thinking about this, he can only helplessly shake his head.

After that he got closer to the wall, he took out Ethan’s sword from the storage ring.

Earlier Orochi had already used the ‘Observation skill’ on the sword, and he found that this sword was extremely good.

.

Red Grade Level 4 Sword

+4320 Strength

+1200 Agility

.

Just holding this weapon, can increase Orochi’s combat power by more than 30-40%.

Orochi was extremely pleased with this.

Orochi used his bare palm and gripped the blade of the sword tightly. If any average Human stage cultivator was in place of Orochi and if his skin touched the sharp edge of the sword, then a cut will form on his skin and blood will start leaking.

But Orochi’s Defense stat is so high that even a Red grade Level 1 and Level 2 weapon cannot even leave a mark on his body anymore.

So, when Orochi gripped the blade of the sword, not even a single scratch formed on his skin.

========================================

Author's Announcement:

Let me establish few new goals:

For every 5 Balloon or 1 Lollipop = I will release 2 chapters

10 Balloon or 2 Lollipops or 1 Potion= 4 chapters

20 Balloon or 4 Lollipops or 2 Potions or 1 Grimoire = 6 chapters

And if I receive a Ring or Sword or Wand or Crown, then I would request the sender to post a comment in the chapter about how many chapters would you like me to release, and I will try my best to release chapters based on the request. [But I hope the number is reasonable, as it will take few more days for me to build up the stock.]

Weekly Goals:

Mass Release on Monday:

500 Power stones = 3 Chapters

600 Power stones = 4 Chapters

700 Power stones = 5 Chapters

(Only if I reach this goal, will I be Mass releasing the chapters. Because If I could see your support through this, I can reassure myself that ‘Yeah, I can still work on this novel and can also start new works’ for my readers. And I am a graduate who is required to find a job; hence your support can give encouragement. I hope you people understand and continue your support.)
