Chapter 481 Promoted to the 3th Pillar
Sure enough, Qi Youshan's kindness came at a price.
Ye Kang gave him a few scales and half a bucket of essence blood before returning home.
The next day, he transformed into Liu Ci's appearance and boarded the Tyrant Whale Sect's merchant ship with the Carp God.
That's right, this time Ye Kang decided to bring the Carp God along.
To reach the secret realm, one needs the help of the Carp God's ability to ward off evil and bring good fortune.
Of course, the main reason is that the Carp God has been staying in the sect and hasn't come out for a breath of fresh air for a long time.
Liu Ci reappeared, and upon his arrival, he was already at the Divine Sea Realm.
This angered the other disciples on the ship.
It's true what they say: good people don't live long, while wicked people live for a thousand years.
It's outrageous that such a bastard could break through to the Divine Sea realm!
Ye Kang was already used to their unfriendly gazes; as long as he wasn't embarrassed, it was others who were.
"Carp God, do you like the sea?"
Ye Kang leaned against the deck and asked softly.
The hooded carp god shook his head: "The carp god doesn't like salty things."
"Because the Carp God is a freshwater carp, hahaha."
Ye Kang laughed loudly into the wind, which immediately attracted even more disgusted looks.
……
After driving for three consecutive days.
The ship arrived at a dangerous area of sea.
This place is located on the outskirts of the coral archipelago, in a desolate and uninhabited area, where the demon generals of the Nine Nether Palace often patrol.
The nearest island is Wuji Island, where the Wuji Sword Sect is located.
The reason why the Tyrant Whale Sect's ship passed through here was to demonstrate the sect's strength; it was a deliberate act.
Of course, some people will disembark directly on the deserted island ahead.
For example, Ye Kang and Li Shen, as well as several ordinary disciples.
The disciples came here with a simple purpose: to seek an opportunity.
Because it is close to the territory of the Nine Nether Palace, the caves and opportunities in this sea area have not been completely plundered, and people often come here to try their luck.
Of course, if you're unlucky enough to encounter a demon general, you can only hope for the best.
Upon seeing Liu Ci disembark, the disciples' gazes turned cold, and they immediately fled into the distance without offering any greeting.
Ye Kang ignored them and led the Carp God on foot across the sea.
"The ruins and caves that Yang Lie mentioned should be nearby, according to the sea chart. Being close to both major powers, it's a good place to hide in the dark."
He smiled, quickened his pace, and soon arrived at another deserted island.
He used his divine sense to confirm that there was no one around.
He then sat down cross-legged and said, "I need to break through, Carp God will protect me."
Upon hearing this, the little girl's eyes suddenly filled with a sense of responsibility, and she solemnly said, "Leave it to the Carp God!"
"I can rest assured that."
Ye Kang set up the formation and focused on immersing himself in the deduction space.
Although it had only been a short time since the second pillar was raised, the struggle with the Devouring Turtle had greatly tempered his physique, and after ten days of medicinal baths, the balance of tension and relaxation had allowed him to stabilize his cultivation.
Breaking through the third pillar at this point wouldn't be considered fast.
Moreover, since we're going to enter the secret realm, who knows how many dangers we'll encounter? If our cultivation level isn't high enough, we won't be able to stay stable.
As Ye Kang entered the deduction space, all the spirits immediately knelt down.
"See my Lord!"
Ye Kang waved his hand: "Get up. You don't need to kneel anymore. It's too much trouble."
"I will obey my master's orders!"
Ye Kang nodded and looked at the Little Leopard King: "Youying, my third pillar should have been given to you, but I need to go into the water to fight now, so I can only ask you to do it for now."
Soul Spirit Shadow's eyes dimmed, clearly showing some disappointment.
Unable to share his master's worries, he could not eat or sleep in peace!
"Youying obeys Master's orders without question; how dare she complain of being wronged!"
The green-faced creature beside him chuckled and said, "Master, the green-faced creature is not wronged either."
Ye Kang glanced at him sideways, then looked at Tie Lin: "Tie Lin, you are compatible with the Catfish Demon Water Suppression Technique, would you be willing to become my third pillar spirit?"
Iron Scale seemed to have never expected that, despite arriving last, he would be the third pillar to be formed.
He had already studied the pillar-raising method with Qingmian, and it was simply astonishing.
Only the supreme master can possess such a technique.
He felt extremely honored and said excitedly, "Thank you, Master! Iron Scale will certainly live up to your expectations!"
"That's good. Get ready."
With a thought, Ye Kang activated the Pillar Ascension Chapter of the Sacred Ultimate Heaven-Reaching Technique. His divine sea, which had expanded to a terrifying extent, rapidly unfolded, and two seven-zhang-tall heavenly pillars rose one after another.
Bishui and Chiyan stood at opposite ends, their gazes solemn.
Under their guidance, the divine sea trembled, and yet another pillar of heaven attempted to rise from it.
The Ascending Pillar Technique was running wildly, and true energy surged within the Purple Mansion, ready to be unleashed.
Boom!
The third pillar of heaven rose to three zhang (approximately 13 meters). Upon seeing this, Ye Kang no longer hesitated and slowly inscribed the improved version of the Catfish Demon Suppressing Water Technique onto it.
Almost all martial artists who reach this stage will have their Heavenly Pillar collapse and fail to ascend.
But Ye Kang wouldn't do that. The Demon Body Refining Technique was like a bridge, stabilizing the Heavenly Pillar and allowing it to continue rising.
Four zhang, five zhang, six zhang...
"Ironscale! Hurry up and get over there!"
Ye Kang shouted, and the Iron Scales, which he had been preparing for a long time, transformed into their original form and roared out, instantly becoming the totem of the Heavenly Pillar.
The ferocious, scaled, and tentacle-covered Ironscale Beast gleamed on the pillar, lifelike and grotesque.
The Demon Body Refining Technique has completely materialized, causing this celestial pillar, like the other two, to transform into a blood-red demonic pillar, utterly malevolent.
At this moment, the demon pillar continued to rise.
Chief Ironscale's powerful aptitude and cultivation became the foundation for his ascension to the pillar at this time.
As expected, the demon pillar broke through the seven pillars. Its speed decreased slightly, but it still rushed to seven zhang eight, seven zhang nine, eight zhang, and eight zhang four without any effort!
With its foundation exhausted, the demon pillar finally stopped rising.
It was almost ten feet taller than the previous two pillars.
As expected of the old patriarch of the Ironscale Beast clan who once raised five pillars.
Ye Kang was very satisfied and immediately withdrew his divine sea and concealed his aura.
But the strange phenomenon still occurred. A golden flower fell from above, spinning wildly, its petals falling everywhere, accompanied by numerous blessings from heaven and earth, before entering Ye Kang's body.
A celestial phenomenon occurred, and golden flowers were presented as a gift.
Ye Kang took a deep breath and swallowed the blessing from heaven and earth in one gulp.
In an instant, his true energy expanded rapidly, his meridians underwent a transformation, and his Purple Mansion and Divine Sea expanded by nearly half their original size.
Ye Kang felt his divine sense had been greatly enhanced, and with a casual sweep, it covered a much wider area than before.
His true energy reserves are terrifying. Now, he can use even martial arts that consume true energy at will, and he will not easily run out of true energy.
The improvement in physical fitness goes without saying.
Back when he was a second pillar, he was already able to crush the Iron Scale Clan Chief with his bare body.
Now, the three pillars have undergone a transformation and absorbed the blessings of heaven and earth. Ye Kang also took the opportunity to absorb a large number of body-tempering treasures.
All things considered, nowadays, anyone who wants to surpass Ye Kang in physical strength must be at least a master of the Seven Pillars level.
He took a deep breath, concealed all his energy, and meditated for two more hours to stabilize his surging cultivation before opening his eyes.
"Alright, it's time to go out to sea."
