—------------------—
In the early morning, the sky outside the huge crystal window was gradually changing from dark blue to bright blue.
The sky outside the window today is exceptionally blue and clear.
The golden morning sun scattered into a spacious room through the silk curtains. Xu Tianyang, lying on the soft big bed, slowly opened his eyes. His long eyelashes trembled slightly, and his pair of clear eyes like rubies faced the morning sun, reflecting some gorgeous light.
I stood up and walked to the window sill. What caught my eye was the vast blue sea with the sound of waves hitting the rocks clearly audible.
After stretching his body a little, he felt so comfortable both mentally and physically that he almost couldn't help but moan.
"I've been watching it for almost half a year. Every time I see the sea, it always makes me feel relaxed. No wonder so many people like watching the sea."
After watching for a while, Xu Tianyang put on his clothes and went to the bathroom in his room to wash up.
He lived in a three-story house with a huge yard outside, big enough for horses.
When he walked down the stairs to the lobby on the first floor, a maid had already prepared a carefully cooked breakfast for him.
A large piece of fried golden brown and tender whale tail meat. This piece of whale tail meat was taken from a 100,000-year-old dragon-patterned whale. Because it has dragon blood, its body is extremely strong and it is the top overlord in the ocean.
Its flesh and blood are of great benefit to human soul masters. Not only can it nourish the soul masters' strength, but it also has the effect of nourishing muscles and bones, especially for minors whose bones are not fully developed.
Another dish is a large bowl of clear soup made with century-old ginseng and Gastrodia elata essence. This soup nourishes the brain and body and can be regarded as an excellent nutritional supplement.
After breakfast, Xu Tianyang felt warm all over and indescribably comfortable.
A year and a half ago, the Sun-Moon Empire destroyed the Moonlight Empire, and the Sun-Moon Continent was unified. After hearing the news of unification, the former emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire, Xu Tianyang's grandfather, laughed excitedly three times, but finally, his old body could no longer support him and he passed away.
Xu Yunxiao had no time to deal with the various matters after unification, and hurried back to the imperial capital to attend the funeral of the old emperor. He then officially ascended the throne and became emperor. The original imperial capital was officially renamed Mingdu.
Not long after, Xu Tianyang was also canonized as the crown prince and Mu Mengyu as the queen.
After spending a lot of time dealing with affairs across the empire, half a year ago, the search team sent by Xu Yunxiao finally discovered this 100,000-year-old dragon-patterned whale in a coastal area.
Just at this time, Xu Tianyang broke through to the twentieth level of soul power.
Xu Yunxiao acted decisively and brought Xu Tianyang with him, gathering a large number of the empire's top experts and consuming countless soul guides before they were able to successfully hunt down the 100,000-year-old dragon-patterned whale. After absorbing its soul rings and soul bones, Xu Yunxiao successfully advanced to become a Titled Douluo of the 93rd level, with the title of Brilliant Dragon Douluo.
At this time, Xu Tianyang also absorbed a thousand-year-old dragon-patterned whale and successfully advanced to the realm of Grand Soul Master.
The remaining energy of the 100,000-year soul ring is enough to successfully push Xu Yunxiao to level 95, which is the realm of Super Douluo.
As for the realm above level ninety-five, it is not so easy to break through, and requires the soul master to comprehend it on his own.
After Xu Yunxiao and Xu Tianyang made the breakthrough, Xu Yunxiao hurried back to Mingdu. This new unified dynasty had a lot of complicated issues, and they couldn't do without him, the emperor.
Xu Tianyang did not follow him back, but stayed. He had a way of cultivation that he had long intended to try, but he had never had the chance before. Now that the opportunity had come, he certainly did not intend to give up.
Xu Yunxiao had no objection to this. He took Xu Tianyang to a seaside city called Zhenhai City and began to practice in seclusion.
After breakfast, Xu Tianyang felt warm all over and indescribably comfortable.
"Has Shuang'er not broken through yet?"
"There are often active energy fluctuations coming from Princess Shuang'er's room. I think it happened today." Hearing Xu Tianyang's question, a woman with a nimble figure, like a cheetah, walked out from a dark corner of the room and said in a hoarse voice.
Her name is Min Yingying, her martial soul is Shadow Leopard, she is one of the seventy-seven Soul Saints, and she was left behind by Xu Yunxiao to protect Xu Tianyang's safety.
As for Xu Nianshuang, she arrived three days ago. At this time, the second-grade courses had already ended. Xu Nianshuang came here on the pretext of looking for an opportunity to break through level 20.
Mu Mengyu and the others did not stop her and sent someone to send her to Xu Tianyang's residence. After seeing Xu Tianyang, Xu Nianshuang directly said that the opportunity for breakthrough had come and she had been practicing in the room for a day and a night.
Nodding and confirming Xu Nianshuang's safety, Xu Tianyang softly instructed, "Sister Yingying, please take care of Shuang'er. There's still quite a bit of that dragon-patterned whale left. Have someone stew it. It'll be ready for use after she breaks through."
Walking out of the hall on the first floor of the house, you will see two flower beds with various rare flowers in full bloom, and a marble walkway that extends from the front of the castle on the mountain to the inner bay.
"Your Highness, the sea breeze has passed, and today's waves are suitable for practicing." In the flower garden, a middle-aged man seemed to have been waiting for a long time. When he saw Xu Tianyang coming out, he immediately came up with a few people.
"Sorry to trouble you, Uncle Tao." Xu Tianyang said to them in a gentle tone.
Upon hearing this, Meng Tao and the others nodded with smiles on their faces, and their respect for Xu Tianyang grew even stronger, not just in terms of status.
Although force can suppress everything in this world, between a tyrant and a benevolent ruler, it is obvious that the latter is more likable.
In Xu Tianyang's eyes, as an emperor, one must be a sage inside and a king outside, and only by possessing both the kingly way and the domineering way can one be invincible. However, his current strength is still very weak, and the domineering way is not suitable for him.
Accompanying a few people, Xu Tianyang walked slowly along the aisle towards the inner bay.
The inland sea is extremely vast. On the sea surface lies a majestic warship covered with metal armor. This is a naval warship of the Sun-Moon Empire. The dozens of ferocious gun muzzles on the warship are enough to support the warship to sail to the depths of the sea.
There were three people following Meng Tao. The five of them did not board the huge warship, but took out two narrow boats from their soul guides. These two boats had no sails and could be driven by injecting soul power.
Xu Tianyang tapped his toes and landed on the bow of one of the small boats.
The two small boats sailed out of the inland sea one after the other, then sailed south along the island for about a thousand meters and stopped at the edge of a ten-meter-high rock.
"Follow the previous rhythm, but this time Uncle Tao can increase the intensity a little. If you can't hold on, I will release the signal."
Xu Tianyang landed on the top of the rock with ease. The top of the rock was very small and could only accommodate three people standing normally. Waves occasionally hit the sea surface, soaking the small platform.
"Let's get started!"
Immersing his body in the sea water and leaning against the rock, Xu Tianyang looked at Meng Tao and the others and said in a serious tone.
Meng Tao's martial spirit possessed him, and he stepped back slightly, looking vigilantly at the surrounding sea. This place was close to the coastline and located in the inland sea. Although there were few sea soul beasts coming here, nothing was absolute. When it came to Xu Tianyang's safety, Meng Tao had to be cautious.
The remaining three also released their martial spirits, and fifteen soul rings appeared. The three stood in a row. Their martial spirits were all water-attributed martial spirits without exception. Relying on the power of their martial spirits, they could float on the sea in front of Xu Tianyang.
Following Xu Tianyang's command, rich blue soul power shone on the bodies of the three people, and each of them activated their soul skills.
Their soul skills are different, but they have one thing in common, which is the ability to drive waves.
The surrounding sea water began to boil, and then returned to calm in an instant.
But this is just the beginning of the storm.
From afar, one can see wave after wave of waves approaching this side from afar. Not long after, a huge wave came towards them. The height of the wave was just the same as the rock behind Xu Tianyang. With a loud bang, it hit Xu Tianyang heavily.
That's right, Xu Tianyang is currently practicing Tidal Body Refining.
In the eyes of Xu Yunxiao and Mu Mengyu, his Sun Pupil Martial Soul and Tang San's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul have the same effect. Both are secondary martial souls that can be used to add spirit rings to the second martial soul in the future.
However, Xu Tianyang knew that his Sun Pupil martial soul, as a top-level martial soul, had potential that was no less than that of the Purple Brilliant Sky-Destroying Dragon, so he did not give up on the second awakening of the Sun Pupil.
Even though he didn't know how to achieve the second awakening of his martial soul, the cultivation of his martial soul was about tapping into his own physical potential, allowing himself to push himself to the limit and break through it time and time again.
Xu Tianyang's tidal body training over the past six months has been a continuous practice of tapping into the potential of his own body.
With tremendous momentum, the waves hit his body, but there was no strong impact. Although his whole body was immersed in the water, which made him feel suffocated, he felt that he could completely bear it.
Xu Tianyang, who was submerged by the waves, opened his eyes with difficulty. What he saw before him was a completely azure world. His muscles were tense and the soul power in his body started to circulate rapidly, but he was still dragged into the sea by the powerful waves.
During this process, his body hit the rocks behind him from time to time. Even with his physical fitness, he couldn't help but let out a few muffled groans, and then he was fed with several large mouthfuls of sea water.
At this moment, he was able to avoid being carried away by the waves by holding on tightly to the cracks in the rocks with his hands.
Before he could steady himself, another wave, even stronger than the previous one, swallowed his body again.
This cycle repeated itself over and over again. Xu Tianyang didn't know how many times he was hit by the waves. He just felt numb all over his body. His meridians, flesh, bones, and everything else were numb. He couldn't even feel the existence of his hands.
Feeling that he had reached his limit, Xu Tianyang squeezed out the last bit of strength in his body and crushed a round object on the belt around his waist.
The next moment, a dazzling flash rose from the bottom of the sea. Meng Tao quickly took action to block the endless waves in the distance and went into the sea to rescue Xu Tianyang.
He took Xu Tianyang back to his residence and put him into a wooden barrel that had been prepared long ago. Various medicinal herbs were floating in the barrel. At first glance, they were all rare and valuable medicinal herbs for strengthening the body and replenishing the vital energy. But now they were floating in the barrel as if they were free.
"Get out of the way." At this moment, an old man who had been prepared on the side pushed Meng Tao away. A pink soul power rose up, and flowers emitting the breath of life fell into Xu Tianyang's body. Seeing Xu Tianyang recover, the old man couldn't help but persuade him, "Your Highness, why bother with this? The continent is peaceful now, and the empire is thriving under Your Majesty's governance. With Your Highness's talent, if you practice step by step, your future achievements will surely be no less than Your Majesty's. Why bother with this!"
"Mr. Li, this is my own choice. God has given me the best talent. If I cannot bring it to its full potential, I will regret it when I look back when I am old." Xu Tianyang, who was slowly recovering, looked at Li Ran with a concerned look on his face, his eyes filled with unshakable determination.
How could he gain the power to conquer everything without paying a price? His goal from the beginning was not to become a Titled Douluo, but to become the Evil Emperor, or even a God.
"Alas!" Li Ran sighed softly. This was the nth time he had tried to persuade His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the past six months, but every time he got the result, he was both moved and helpless.
Unable to do anything about Xu Tianyang, Li Ran could only turn around and glare at Meng Tao angrily, making the other person look aggrieved.
After confirming that Xu Tianyang had no hidden injuries, the two left the room and allowed Xu Tianyang to practice with peace of mind.
Xu Tianyang took out a golden object from the soul guide. This was the whale glue of the dragon-patterned whale. The energy of the whale glue of the hundred thousand year old soul beast was too huge. With Xu Tianyang's current body, even after half a year, he still had not absorbed it all.
After taking a portion, Xu Tianyang soaked in the medicinal bath and quickly entered the state of cultivation.
Although he had endured tremendous pain before, it was all worth it. After his body was on the verge of reaching its limit, both his training speed and the speed of absorbing whale glue and medicinal bath were much faster than usual.
