Chapter 810: Female Expert
"What?! We, you... You broke through to the second level of the Void Interpretation Stage?" As soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, Feng Tian Wu didn't even have the chance to speak when Feng Wu Dao had already exclaimed with surprise.
He was extremely clear about when his daughter had broken through to the first level of the Void Interpretation Stage.
But when he heard Duan Ling Tian's words and saw the reaction of his daughter, he realized a problem... His daughter might have really broken through to the second level of the Void Interpretation Stage!
"Yes." Feng Tian Wu's answer caused Feng Wu Dao to be completely petrified.
After a short moment, he recovered from his shock and muttered. "What did you encounter in the Illusory Crypt? Could it be that it's really as Ling Tian said? You obtained some sort of fortuitous encounter? Otherwise, how could you repeatedly break through twice in the short time of a single month?"
Second level of the Void Interpretation Stage?
Break through twice in the short time of a single month?
The speaker had no particular intention in saying something, but the listener understood something different from it.
Feng Wu Dao's words shocked Sword 13 and Saber 5, to the point their gazes towards Feng Tian Wu changed completely.
The cultivation of this 25 year old little girl had advanced by two levels in the short time of a month to step into the second level of the Void Interpretation Stage?
How could this be possible?!
After all, no matter how good and how many spirit fruits one consumed, it was impossible to allow a Void Interpretation Stage expert to surmount two levels in a short one or two months of time.
The medicinal strength of a spirit fruit required time to be dissolved, otherwise, it would be impossible for the medicinal strength to be completely revealed.
"I passed through a barrier related to water inside the Illusory Crypt, and my entire body was immersed into the water and suffered the assault of water in there... In the end, it seemed to have drawn some sort of energy within my body, and it caused my Origin Energy to roil and directly break through." Feng Tian Wu replied.
A barrier related to water?
Duan Ling Tian naturally knew what Feng Tian Wu was speaking of, and it was none other than the area enveloped by the Inscription Formation that was capable of creating water.
He'd encountered that barrier as well, but his Spiritual Force had temporarily turned off the Inscription Formation at the first possible moment, so he utterly didn't need to forcefully traverse this barrier.
But Feng Tian Wu was different, she didn't possess a Spiritual Force like Duan Ling Tian, nor did she know the Dao of Inscription, so it was impossible for her to do as Duan Ling Tian did.
She could only traverse it by force.
"Water drew out some sort of energy?" Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian experienced a flash of realization and seemed to have thought of something, and he looked at Feng Wu Dao at the first possible moment.
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian noticed Feng Wu Dao had looked at him as well.
"Fire Spirit Body!" Duan Ling Tian and Feng Wu Dao looked at each other in the eye and practically spoke out at the exact same time. Obviously, they'd thought of the same thing.
The energy that Feng Tian Wu said to have been drawn out was probably the energy Feng Tian Wu possessed as a possessor of the Fire Spirit Body.
That energy would completely explode out when Feng Tian Wu turned 30, and if Feng Tian Wu was unable to endure it, she would die for sure!
Moreover, that energy would effuse out bit by bit to fuse into Feng Tian Wu's body and assist her to cultivate, and this was also the reason Feng Tian Wu's cultivation advanced extremely swiftly.
"So in this way, the water in the Illusory Crypt pressured the energy of the Fire Spirit Body within Feng Tian Wu's body to the point of erupting, and it assisted her to advance to the second level of the Void Interpretation Stage?" Duan Ling Tian guessed in his heart.
"Tian Wu, did you feel anything when the energy within your body erupted?" Duan Ling Tian asked with a serious expression.
"At that time, I felt the meridians in my entire body extremely scorching hot and almost about to explode... At the critical moment, the water that pressured my body stretched out with a force that suppressed it, causing it to fuse with the Origin Energy in my body and assist me in breaking through!" Feng Tian Wu recalled the scene at that time.
"It's more or less as I thought." Duan Ling Tian nodded.
On the other hand, Feng Wu Dao realized how dangerous this incident was from his daughter's words, and he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat for her.
"The energy of the Fire Spirit Body is formidable in indeed... If it can be constantly and suitably drawn out like this, then perhaps it will be able to allow Tian Wu to possess a cultivation at the Void Transformation Stage before the age of 30!
"If Tian Wu is able to possess a cultivation at the Void Transformation Stage at the age of 30, then she'd be able to forcefully under the energy of the Fire Spirit Body that's hiding within her body." Duan Ling Tian thought in his heart. "There're another five years of time... It's slightly pressing."
In next to no time, Duan Ling Tian's gaze became resolute.
No matter what, he would try all means to assist Tian Wu in breaking through to the Void Transformation Stage before the age of 30, and he would absolutely not stand idly by and watch Tian Wu perish.
So long as Tian Wu was able to endure the explosion of the Fire Spirit Body at the age of 30, her future would be limitless!
"Fire Spirit Body?" Saber 5 and Sword 13 stared blankly at Feng Tian Wu, and their eyes contained slight pity.
They naturally knew what the Fire Spirit Body meant. It meant that it would be impossible for the possessor of this constitution to live past the age of 30.
Unless the possessor was capable of breaking through to the Void Transformation Stage by the age of 30!
But this was practically impossible for a possessor of the Fire Spirit Body.
Perhaps a possessor of the Fire Spirit Body was able to consume spirit fruits to assist in cultivating in the beginning, but once the possessor stepped into the Void Interpretation Stage, the possessor was unable to consume spirit fruits to cultivate any longer.
If spirit fruits were consumed, then it would end in qi deviation, or even death from the explosion of the pent up energy!
This was something that Duan Ling Tian was naturally clear about, otherwise, he wouldn't feel that time was pressing.
Tian Wu was a possessor of the Fire Spirit Body and had already broken through to the Void Interpretation Stage. If she was capable of consuming spirit fruit and combined with the assistance of a Fire Concept Fragment, it wasn't difficult for her to break through to the Void Transformation Stage before the age of 30.
But the problem was even if spirit fruits utilized by Void Interpretation Stage martial artists were right before Feng Tian Wu's eyes, she was unable to consume them.
This was something that caused the greatest headache.
"No matter what, you've obtained fortune out of misfortune this time." Duan Ling Tian smiled.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, another figure appeared at the exit of the Illusory Crypt.
This was a young man with an ordinary appearance, and the first thing he did after coming out was to sweep the group of people in the sky above the combat arena.
It was as if he wanted to know who'd obtained the first to the seventh token.
When his gaze encountered Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu, a shocked expression of disbelief appeared on his face. "They... How could that be possible?"
"It's a member of the Darchu Dynasty! The number one expert in the younger generation of the Darchu Dynasty, Ou Chen." In next to no time, someone recognized the identity of the young man that was the eighth to leave the Illusory Crypt.
"Ou Chen." The representative of the Darchu Dynasty had a face full of smiles when he saw Ou Chen come out.
"How could they possibly have come out before me?" After Ou Chen returned to the side of the Darchu Dynasty's representative, he was still unwilling to believe that Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu would be able to traverse the Illusory Crypt before him.
"That Duan Ling Tian is extraordinary... He was the first to come out! The number 1 token is in his possession." The representative of the Darchu Dynasty noticed that Ou Chen's gaze was staring at Duan Ling Tian's direction, and he couldn't help but speak out.
"What?!" Ou Chen's shocked expression froze completely when he heard this.
After a short moment, he recovered from his shock and fiercely gulped down a mouthful of saliva. "Duan Ling Tian was actually the first to have traversed the Illusory Crypt?"
"What's the ranking of the red clothed young woman by his side?" After taking a deep breath, Ou Chen asked again.
"She was comparatively slower and was only before you at the seventh... The number 7 token ought to be in her possession." The representative of the Darchu Dynasty sighed. "You're at the third level of the Void Interpretation Stage, yet you're actually behind her... Could it be that her strength is even capable of defeating you?"
"She seems to be only 25, right? It ought to be impossible." Ou Chen shook his head, and he said in his heart at the same time, "Perhaps she spent less time in the illusory formations within the Illusory Crypt... If it's solely in terms of strength, then it's impossible for her to be stronger than me."
After Ou Chen, the ninth person quickly came out.
"Another woman!" The person that appeared before the eyes of everyone at this moment was a woman with a hot body in tight clothes, but unfortunately, her appearance could only be considered to be ordinary.
But her ability of being able to become eminent as a female indicated that her strength was formidable.
After all, amongst the 100 young geniuses that participated in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties this time, female martial artists numbered less than 20.
Since she was able to come out at this time, it undoubtedly indicated that she'd already surpassed over 70 male martial artists.
"It's Ye Ling! The publicly acknowledged 'Female Overlord' of the Darqing Dynasty's younger generation. Supposedly, she was already at the second level of the Void Interpretation Stage a year ago, and it's extremely likely that she has broken through to the third level of the Void Interpretation Stage now." Someone recognized this woman.
"The Darqing Dynasty's Ye Ling?" Duan Ling Tian couldn't help but be slightly surprised when he saw a second woman after Feng Tian Wu coming out at this time.
"If nothing unexpected has happened, I ought to be the one and only female martial artist that has obtained one of the top ten number tokens." Ye Ling's ordinary face was suffused with a wisp of a complacent smile when facing the numerous gazes that converged onto her and the numerous gasps of admiration.
But when her gaze shot into the distance, it completely froze on the spot and was unable to move away.
"How could this be possible?! She... How could she possibly have come out earlier than me?" Ye Ling stared fixedly at the distant Feng Tian Wu as her pupils constricted, and she was unwilling to believe that everything before her eyes was real.
How could there possibly be a woman that had traversed the Illusory Crypt faster than her?
Moreover, it was a woman that was beautiful to the point it aroused envy in her!
As a woman, who wouldn't want to possess a drop dead gorgeous appearance?
In the past, she'd seen many women that were more beautiful than her, but almost all of those women were flower pots. So what if they were more beautiful than her? In this world where the strong were respected, she could decide her own fate.
So Ye Ling had always felt that even though the heavens didn't bestow a drop dead gorgeous appearance to her, it had instead given her a natural talent in the Martial Dao that wasn't inferior to a man.
Yet now, Feng Tian Wu had ruthlessly destroyed the pride in her heart, causing her to feel that she was like a pitiable wretch.
In terms of appearance, she was inferior to Feng Tian Wu.
In terms of strength...
Based on current circumstances, since Feng Tian Wu was capable of traversing the Illusory Crypt before her, Feng Tian Wu's strength was obviously not inferior to her.
