16 Advent Yang Ar

Name:The Devourer Author:Arkszero
Su Lingyan simply couldn't accept the fact that a mere 3rd level Body Refinement Realm cultivator like Ling Tian can have body strong enough to rival a Spirit Refinement Realm cultivator. If she knew that his body is powerful enough to defeat even a late stage Foundation Establishment, she would probably lose her consciousness.

Ling Tian ignored Su Lingyan's shock and turned towards Elder Sun to ask, " Old man, can't others simply defend themselves from the gravitational force with their spirit energy?"

" kid, you're underestimating the might of gravitational force. There is a limit to how much, the spirit energy can defend against gravity. And this limit depends on the cultivation of the individual or the purity of the individual's spirit energy." Elder Sun patiently explained to Ling Tian.

Ling Tian had a expression as if he suddenly got enlightened. He them asked " Then which category do I belong to?"

" You don't belong to either of the categories. Although your spirit energy is extremely pure to the point its almost strange, your cultivation level is too low so your spirit energy no matter how pure, will do you no good. It's only because your body is strong that you're able to climb the stairs without much effort." Said elder Sun.

" I see, that makes sense." Said Ling Tian while thinking' As expected of a Saiyan's body, it is on a completely different level '

" Oh right, do I get to take martial arts from this section? " Ling Tian asked Elder Sun as he knew that, without having any foundation in martial techniques, he won't be able to master any advanced techniques.

" Yes, you can." Elder Sun replied with an expression as if saying ' why do you need low level battle techniques'

Ling Tian didn't notice elder Sun's face and just went into the first floor section of the library. He saw hundreds if not thousands of old tattered books kept in the shelves.

Ling Tian started looking through the manuals one by one. He then realized that, he could remember almost all the manuals he read so far. Ling Tian wondered if this was one of the benefits he got from the 'fusion' of his and his predecessor's souls.

Soon Ling Tian found the martial art manual that was perfect for him. 'Foundation Fist Art', this manual consists of 18 different fist forms. If completely mastered, one will have an astonishing foundation, when it comes to fist type martial techniques. This was exactly what an amateur like Ling Tian needed.

There was an other martial art that caught his eyes. 'Foundation Sword Arts' , this manual consists of 36 different sword forms. Unfortunately, he has no need for a sword technique as Saiyans mostly fight unarmed.

" I'm done, lets continue." Ling Tian said as he took the 'Foundation Fist Arts' with him.

" Are you sure that's all you need? Why not take the 'Foundation Sword Arts' as well?" Elder Sun didn't criticize Ling Tian for selecting a beginner's martial art, but suggested him to pick the Sword version as well.

" No, I don't use swords. I mostly rely on my body to fight anyway." ' I've already memorized the entire manual. Not that I think I will ever get a chance to learn it.' Thought Ling Tian as he replied to Elder Sun's suggestion.

Elder Sun didn't say anything and just watched Ling Tian. Su Lingyan was silent throughout the entire time. Ling Tian made his way to the stairway to the second floor of the library.

Ling Tian took a step onto the stairs and this time he really felt a bit heavy but it didn't bother him too much. What shocked him was that the 'Battle Tyrant Ki Scripture' was circulating much faster within him and he could feel that the pressure he felt had almost disappeared. To be exact, Ling Tian just got used to the increase in gravity.

Now that Ling Tian had gotten used to the gravity of the stairway to second floor, he saw no need for standing in the stairs. So he just hurried to the second floor.

Ling Tian asked elder Sun, whether he can select martial arts from the second floor section as well. After getting Elder Sun's affirmation, Ling Tian looked through all the martial arts manuals, but he found nothing that was suitable for him. Nonetheless, Ling Tian still memorized all the manuals.

Ling Tian then moved on to the stairway to the third floor of the library. As expected, the gravitational force acting on the stairs were at least ten times that of the stairway of second floor. Under the immense pressure, the 'Battle Tyrant Ki Scripture' started to rotate at high speed as his body was getting more stronger as he felt himself getting used to the gravity of the third floor, albeit slowly.

Ling Tian could feel that his Ki has also increased by quite a bit. After about twenty minutes, Ling Tian completely got used to the gravity on the stairs then quickly rushed to the third floor of the library.

After reaching the third floor section of the library, he looked through all the manuals and found that there were many techniques suitable for him. But nonetheless he still memorized all the manuals in the third floor of the library. There were records of Spiritual herbs , monster beasts, rare natural treasures etc., as well.

" Are you not going to take any manuals kid?" Asked elder Sun in confusion as he was unable to determine just what Ling Tian was up to.

' Nah, although there are plenty of powerful martial techniques and spirit techniques, without mastering the basics, I won't be able to learn any of those techniques." Ling said while thinking ' why should I take the manuals itself, when I've memorized everything anyway'

" Anyway, enough of that. Lets see what the final floor is made of." Ling Tian grinned and walked towards the stairway to the fourth floor of the library where the supposedly most powerful Cultivation techniques and martial arts manuals are kept.

Ling Tian felt an enormous force on him that brought him to his knees. He couldn't move at all, as he was barely able to keep himself from kissing the steps.

" urgh-" Ling Tian grit his teeth and endured the pain he was feeling all over his body. Su Lingyan was worried for Ling Tian but she could do nothing to help him as she herself is able to stand in the stairs because of the support from Elder Sun.

Meanwhile Elder Sun was in deep thought as he looked at Ling Tian. Elder Sun didn't help Ling Tian or stop Ling Tian. He felt that the boy in front of him will be able to reach his goal. He himself didn't know why he has such assurance of Ling Tian.

Ling Tian was so much pain, but he didn't lament it. In fact, Ling Tian was too excited at the moment, because 'Battle Tyrant Ki Scripture' was operating at an extremely pace. Ling Tian placed all his attention on circulating the Ki within his Ki channels according to Battle Tyrant Ki Scripture. His Ki reserves was increasing at an explosive rate and his was also getting more stronger.

After 40 minutes, Ling Tian had completely gotten used to the gravity on the stairs of the fourth floor of the library. But Ling Tian was feeling a bit strange as well.

" I know my body is that of a Saiyan, but this rate of improvement is kinda ridiculous. Even Goku never got used to higher gravitational force at the same pace as me. " Ling Tian was mumbling as he thought' but this Ki cultivation technique Fairon gave me is too overpowered. I haven't even reached the first stage of the scripture and it already has such absurd results. I wonder what level of strength I will have when I achieve the first stage of Battle Tyrant Ki Scripture.?'

But what Ling Tian failed to notice was the shock on elder Sun's face when he heard Ling Tian's mumbling.' A Saiyan? This boy is actually a Saiyan?!'

If Ling Tian knew that Elder Sun realized that he is a Saiyan, then he will probably go crazy at the thought that there might be Saiyans other than himself in the Heaven's Fall World.

Elder Sun used his soul sense to inspect Ling Tian. He found that Ling Tian's battle power solely relying on Ki is capable of killing a peak Mortal Core Realm cultivator with a single slap. But the shock elder sun received from finding out Ling Tian's battle power was replaced by an even bigger Shock.

' A tail? That means his bloodline purity is over 60%, that's for sure...does that mean he's from that place?!' While Elder Sun was having his monologue, Ling Tian reached the fourth floor section of the library. Elder Sun snapped out of his imaginations, then he noticed that Su Lingyan was looking at him as if she was expecting him to say something to her.

" It's nothing. I was just surprised that he got used to that amount of pressure in such a short time." Elder Sun told Su Lingyan in order to dispel her confusion.

Elder Sun saw Ling Tian looking through all the manuals in the section, not sparing even the incomplete manuals. Elder Sun, never in his wildest dreams would think that Ling Tian would have an 'Eidetic Memory'. After all, not even the cultivators of Heaven Core Realm have such memory capability, much less, an early stage Body Refinement Realm teenager.

" Congratulations on reaching the fourth floor of the Martial Arts Library. Other than the top five Core disciples no one has ever reached this floor." Elder Sun said to Ling Tian with praise.

" What?! Does that mean, he's comparable to Core disciples? But he's only a Body Refinement Realm cultivator!" Su Lingyan's mind was in mess at hearing what elder Sun said to Ling Tian.

But too bad, Ling Tian was not paying attention to both of them, as he was busy memorizing all the manuals and it was a bit harder for him to memorise it all as all of the cultivation techniques and martial arts were of Earth rank level techniques. But it was not impossible, as it will just take him a bit more time.

After one hour.

" Old man, I've looked through all the manuals here and I've chosen the manuals I want. You said that if I reach the final floor I will get to take three more manuals right?" Ling Tian asked Elder Sun. Of course Ling Tian had no need to take any manuals as he remembers every techniques in the section. But if he didn't select any cultivation technique and martial arts manuals, elder Sun might get suspicious, so he had to put on an act.

" You have indeed reached the fourth floor. But I'm not sure about the final floor though." Elder Sun said to Ling Tian with a meaningful smile.

" What did mean by that, old man?" Ling Tian asked as he was confused about what Elder Sun was trying to say to him.

' Looks like he really is a simple minded brat.' Elder Sun sighed internally and said " there is still a hidden floor, where the strongest cultivation manual in the Heaven's Fall world is stored in. No one has been able to get this cultivation manual for the past four thousand years. " Elder Sun looked at Ling Tian to see what kind of reaction he would have.

" Strongest huh... Is it a Heaven rank cultivation technique?" Ling Tian couldn't help but ask.

" Heaven Rank? Brat you're underestimating the strongest cultivation technique in the entire Heaven's Fall World. Let me tell you, the cultivation technique is a top grade Spirit Rank level cultivation technique. Let me tell you kid, there was once a time when Spirit Advent Sect was the strongest faction in the entire Heaven's Fall World. And it was the progenitor of Spirit Advent Sect, Ling Feng that made the sect the strongest. And it was because of this Spirit rank cultivation technique, he was able to reign supreme over the Heaven's fall World ." Elder Sun said with reverence.

" And what happened to this progenitor?" Ling Tian asked.

" Hmmm, that's the mystery here. Progenitor Ling Feng just vanished four thousand years ago, leaving behind the spirit rank cultivation technique in the sect." Elder Sun said with a sigh.

" Didn't any other factions come for the cultivation technique?" Ling Tian asked.

" Yes, they did. But not even Divine Emperor Realm supreme experts could get their hands on it. Before disappearing, progenitor Ling Feng had stated that only the one destined will be able to get the cultivation technique. Over the years the supreme experts gave up as they realized that they would not be able to get their hands on the spirit rank cultivation technique." Elder Sun said to Ling Tian.

" What level is Divine Emperor Realm?" Ling Tian was curious as he asked Elder Sun.

" Sorry kid, but you're not strong enough to know about it. Don't worry, if you become strong enough, you'll know about it eventually." Elder Sun said to Ling Tian.

" I see, by the way, What level is Spirit rank? " Ling Tian asked.

" It's a level far above Heaven rank. In fact, it's beyond comparable " Elder Sun said then looked at Ling Tian with a serious face, point his finger towards an old looking wooden door and asked" So boy, would you like to try your luck and try to obtain the strongest cultivation technique -"

" Advent Yang Art!"

" I sure do!!!" Ling Tian screamed as rushed to the wooden door, opened it, and entered as the door closed from behind him. Elder Sun was simply unable to respond as he was caught off guard by Ling Tian's sudden action.

But unknown to both Ling Tian and Elder Sun, a certain disfigured ugly girl stood there stiff beside Elder Sun all because of the world shaking information Elder Sun said to Ling Tian.
