Chapter 1316: Prime Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic
Meanwhile, the Aerolite Strike was the technique that Duan Ling Tian was cultivating at the moment.
The Aerolite Strike was the single attack technique recorded in Colossal Aerolite Arrow. It was formidable and worked exceptionally when one encountered a small number of opponents.
One arrow could kill one person.
While there were single attack techniques, naturally, there were also group attack techniques.
The Aerolite Shower was the Colossal Aerolite Arrow's group attack technique. As soon as it was delivered, arrows would fall like pouring rain. However, due to its scattered power, it was not as powerful as the Aerolite Strike.
However, it worked perfectly in certain situations.
The last attack technique was the Sound of Death. It was a close-distance attack technique which made up for the Colossal Aerolite Arrow's inadequacy as a long-distance Saint Grade Martial Tactic for attacking.
The Sound of Death relied mainly on the bowstring.
As soon as the bowstring was pulled, it would be like the Grim Reaper's scythe reaping the enemy's life. The sound that was the result of pulling the bowstring set off the killed enemy just like the sound of death. That was how the technique got its name.
"There are two Colossal Aerolite Arrow movement techniques which are the Body and Arrow Synchronisation and the Arrow Embodiment."
Duan Ling Tian had mastered a little bit of the Body and Arrow Synchronization.
Just like the attack Duan Ling Tian had performed earlier whereby he stood on top of the arrow and moved along with it... It was the Colossal Aerolite Arrow's movement technique, the Body and Arrow Synchronization.
However, he had yet to cultivate the Arrow Embodiment.
"The defense technique's called the Colossal Arrow Bell. It's the most difficult technique to cultivate in the Colossal Aerolite Arrow! One must cultivate the Aerolite Shower to the Impeccable Stage before mastering the Colossal Arrow Bell." The information about the Colossal Aerolite Arrow that Duan Ling Tian possessed echoed in his head.
"The Impeccable Stage? What's that?" Duan Ling Tian frowned, unable to understand it.
He went to Han Xue Nai, feeling puzzled, and verbalized his doubts, "Xue Nai, for the Colossal Aerolite Arrow that I'm cultivating, there's a defense technique that I can only improve after cultivating a particular attack technique until I reach the Impeccable Stage."
"Impeccable Stage... What does that mean?" Duan Ling Tian asked.
"Oh..." Han Xue Nai was stunned upon hearing his question.
"What's the matter?" Duan Ling Tian was stunned and felt that something was off.
"Brother Ling Tian, it seems like the Colossal Aerolite Arrow you're cultivating is a set of Saint Grade Martial Tactic skills that are on par with the Dragon Mammoth Destruction Palm that I've cultivated. You must understand that the Dragon Mammoth Destruction Palm's the most powerful Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic in our clan! Only lineal disciples are allowed cultivate it," Han Xue Nai exclaimed.
"Do you mean that... The Colossal Aerolite Arrow that I'm working on is very powerful?" Duan Ling Tian asked.
"Of course!" Han Xue Nai nodded vigorously. "There's an attack technique in the Dragon Mammoth Destruction Palm that I've cultivated which requires us to cultivate a movement technique until we reach the Impeccable Stage to be able to start cultivating the attack technique.
"The attack technique's power will experience a boost due to the movement technique's cultivation basis which is to cultivate it to the Impeccable Stage... It's so powerful that it's comparable with the attack technique of the Earth Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic!"
"Brother Ling Tian, isn't it powerful?" Han Xue Nai gushed to Duan Ling Tian, whose heart jolted when he heard her.
The Earth Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic was higher than the Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic in terms of power.
He heard from Han Xue Nai before that the Earth Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic could only be cultivated by a true Saint Stage powerhouse. Its power was incomparable with the Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic.
Now that Han Xue Nai was telling him that there was an attack technique in the Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic, the very same Dragon Mammoth Destruction Palm that she had cultivated which was comparable with the Earth Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic, how could he not be stunned?
"Xue Nai, from what you said... Does that mean that the defense technique of the Colossal Aerolite Arrow that I'm cultivating's comparable with the defense technique of the Earth Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic?" Duan Ling Tian managed to figure that out at an instant.
There was a defense technique in the Colossal Aerolite Arrow that he had cultivated which required him to cultivate an attack technique to the Impeccable Stage so that he could start cultivating the defense technique.
It was similar to the attack technique in the Dragon Mammoth Destruction Palm that Han Xue Nai had cultivated.
"That's right." Han Xue Nai nodded. "That's why I'm surprised by the Colossal Aerolite Arrow that Brother Ling Tian's cultivating. Your Colossal Aerolite is the same level as my Dragon Mammoth Destruction Palm, which is on Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic. It's even higher than the ordinary Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic.
"Even in our clan, there's only one Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic of such a level which is the Dragon Mammoth Destruction Palm that I've cultivated.
"Such a Saint Grade Martial Tactic's the most powerful one a Martial Cultivator on the Saint Stage could cultivate," Han Xue Nai uttered everything under one breath.
"In that case... Isn't the Colossal Aerolite Arrow extremely precious?" Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath in.
"Not only is it precious; it's priceless! If you're willing to give away a Saint token with such a Saint Grade Martial Tactic stored in it, there'd be people who are willing to exchange it with a Primitive Earth Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic.
"Of course, it would just be a Saint token with an ordinary Primitive Earth Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic... There are also rare ones like the Saint Grade Martial Tactics that we cultivate which are even more precious."
"Just like our clan... We've had a couple of ordinary Primitive Earth Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactics, but there's only one Primitive Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic just like your Colossal Aerolite Arrow, which is the Dragon Mammoth Destruction Palm that I cultivated," Han Xue Nai said.
He could exchange a Saint token with the Primitive Earth Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic in it? Duan Ling Tian's breath quickened beyond his control.
At that moment, he realized the value of the Saint token with the Colossal Aerolite Arrow that he had with him. Even the powerful force behind Xue Nai only had one similar Saint Grade Martial Tactic.
"Brother Ling Tian, it doesn't matter if you expose the astonishing power of the Colossal Aerolite Arrow before the others... But you must keep your Saint token with the Colossal Aerolite Arrow a secret no matter what. No outsiders should know about it," Han Xue Nai put away her usual quirkiness and said in all seriousness, "If it's exposed, even the Saint Stage powerhouses will be interested in your Saint token with the Colossal Aerolite Arrow."
"For the Saint token, they won't care about their identity and kill you directly just to obtain the Saint token," Han Xue Nai said.
"I understand." Duan Ling Tian became sober too and nodded hard.
It would not matter if the others knew how powerful the Colossal Aerolite Arrow that he was cultivating. Without the Saint token, even if he wanted to, there was no way that he could teach the Saint Grade Martial Tactic to another person.
However, it would be a different story if people knew that he had a Saint token with the Colossal Aerolite Arrow with him.
As long as one obtained it, they could cultivate the Saint Grade Martial Tactic recorded in it.
The Saint Stage powerhouses might not be interested in cultivating the Human Rank Saint Grade Martial, Tactic but what about their descendants? What about their offspring?
For the sake of their descendants and offspring, they would do all they could to obtain such a prime Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic, the Colossal Aerolite Arrow.
"Kid, I can't believe I've never heard about all these from you before... I didn't expect the Colossal Aerolite Arrow you're cultivating to be such a prime Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic." A voice came into Duan Ling Tian's head at that moment. It was Wang Ba.
Surprise colored Wang Ba's tone. "You must know that even I myself as a Saint had never come in contact with such a Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic before I broke through to the Saint Stage back then."
"You're in such great fortune... With this Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic, you'll be able to defeat all Martial Cultivators and Dao Cultivators of the same level before you break through to the Saint Stage as long as you don't encounter anyone who cultivates a similar martial tactic or dao method as you do," Wang Ba was envious as he spoke.
Duan Ling Tian was surprised to hear what Wang Ba said.
It must be legitimate since Wang Ba who was once a Saint Stage powerhouse expressed how powerful the Colossal Aerolite Arrow was.
"Brother Ling Tian, it seems like your father isn't an ordinary person on Dao Martial Saint Land. No ordinary person would be able to hand out such a Saint Grade Martial Tactic," Han Xue Nai said, "Even if it were my father, he wouldn't allow me to carry the Saint token with the Dragon Mammoth Destruction Palm along with me because I might lose it... But your father left a Saint token behind with this Colossal Aerolite Arrow for you since the beginning."
Everything was fine before Han Xue Nai compared her father with Duan Ling Tian's. As soon as she did, she thought that her father was petty.
Not someone ordinary?
Duan Ling Tian became silent hearing what Han Xue Nai said while a vaguely familiar silhouette appeared in his head. It was his cheapskate father, Duan Ru Feng.
To Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ru Feng had always been mysterious since the beginning. He could not figure him out.
"Maybe." Eventually, Duan Ling Tian nodded in response to Han Xue Nai.
"Brother Ling Tian, your father's intention of leaving you on the Cloud Continent must be to train you... People who train on the Cloud Continent are much more powerful than those on Dao Martial Saint Land," Han Xue Nai said, "In the Dao Martial Saint Land... Most of the natives are less powerful than the Martial Cultivators and Dao Cultivators from the three Mortal Continents compared to those who share the same cultivation base from Dao Martial Saint Land."
"Why?" Duan Ling Tian could not understand what she said. "The cultivation environment's better and there are more resources, so shouldn't the natives of Dao Martial Saint Land be more powerful?"
"Kid, although the cultivation environment is better and there are more resources in Dao Martial Saint Land... But because of that, they made the growth of most of the natives in Dao Martial Saint Land worse by being over-enthusiastic. Just like the saying, 'haste makes waste'," Wang Ba's voice came again and echoed in Duan Ling Tian's head.
Han Xue Nai said the same thing as Wang Ba did. "Compared to natives in Dao Martial Saint Land, although the cultivation environment and resources aren't as good as on the Mortal Continents, the Martial Cultivators and Dao Cultivators' growth are slower which result in a stable foundation."
"Just like me. I've been suppressing the elevation of my cultivation throughout the years so that I could have a stable foundation... If not for that, I think I would've been on Saint Rudiment Stage by now."
