Chapter 834 Broken Bald Tower
Actually, it couldn’t be accurately said that way; that Soul Forging Cultivators are the bane of Body Tempering Cultivators.
It should be more like: A cultivator with a Seventh Stage Soul Forging Cultivation is able to suppress even an Eighth Stage Body Tempering Cultivator with a weaker Soul Forging Cultivation. However, that couldn’t be said the same about a Seventh Stage Soul Forging Cultivation who faces a Ninth Stage Body Tempering Cultivator with a weak Soul Forging Cultivation.
After all, the difference in their cultivation stage was too vast!N♡vεlB¡n: Where Every Word Sparks Wonder.
In fact, Body Tempering Cultivators could also one-shot a higher-stage Soul Forging Cultivators! However, that is only if their opponents are pure soul forging cultivators who had weak bodies.
Unfortunately, in this world, those who were able to train their Soul Forging Cultivation have their Essence Gathering Cultivation and Body Tempering Cultivation higher than their Soul Forging Cultivation. So, it was fated that pure Body Tempering Cultivators with a weaker soul would remain vulnerable to Soul Forging Cultivators!
That is why the Grand Elder Rakhgal and Elder Towerfall greatly feared the Conferred Queen’s Protector. They deeply feared and was convinced that he was both a Ninth Stage Powerhouse and a Supreme Soul Stage Expert.
’Mhm? They seem intimidated... Good! However, it would be too difficult for me to kill them, and even if Davis or I killed them, even if the Towering Cloud Hall does not hunt us, they will create some problems in the long run.’
’Since Davis and I can’t kill with this expert protecting that bald Towerfall, we can instead...’ Princess Isabella’s eyes imperceptibly flashed.
’So that’s why senior was in seclusion. He finally broke through to the Mid-Level Supreme Soul Stage...’
Elder Havle Alstreim mused as he slightly bowed and congratulated.
"Congratulations on breaking through to the Mid-Level Supreme Soul Stage, Senior!"
Grand Elder Rosella and Elder Enye were quick to follow suit, "Congratulations on breaking through to the Mid-Level Supreme Soul Stage, Senior!"
A few seconds passed and finally observing that nothing had happened and he still possessed his life, Elder Towerfall started to breathe again, but each breath he took made his lungs gasp for breath. He was like a mortal who had just drowned in the sea, losing his breath, only to be brought out by a mermaid and saved.
The life he possessed never felt so precious than at this moment!
He quickly kowtowed in midair and let out a cry miserably, "Ahh!! I was wrong! Conferred Queen, please forgive this lowly one! Senior, please forgive this undeserving one!!!"
"Please spare my life!!! Ahhh!!!" He miserably cried like a child, having his will that had been tempered by countless battles broken.
Battling to the death was of no use when the other party was way above his cultivation base! If there was a surface, he would be even willing to break his head!
Will was only a relative concept. In front of absolute power, wills that were greedy and clinging to life were easier to break!
Davis had finally seen that with his own eyes. Elder Seylas, who had begged him in the past to spare his life, was one thing, but Elder Towerfall’s cry was truly an eye-opener for him. This scene definitely broadened his horizons and told him that tempered wills could also be broken.
To have an unbreakable will is to care about nothing! Nothing at all!
Reaching such a realm is impossible as long as one is human with emotions!
’Then again... If I hadn’t intimidated with both the Soul Suppressing Art and killing intent mixed with death, I wonder if his will would have broken?’
While Davis mused and was low-key waiting for Grand Elder Rakhgal to plead, the latter finally sensed that to save an elder of the Towering Cloud Hall, he must strike while the iron is hot!
"Senior! This junior is aware of the crimes Towerfall committed! I promise in the name of Towering Cloud Hall that he would be locked up in the Dungeon of Repentance for sev- no! Hundred years!"
A High-Level Eighth Stage Expert is too heartbreaking for the power of their level to lose. It wasn’t as if all the people in their Towering Cloud Hall took Body Tempering Cultivation as their main. Many were Essence Gathering Cultivators, and those took their Body Tempering Cultivations were very few.
It mostly was because those resources that increased Body Tempering Cultivation were harder to come by, and those who practiced Body Tempering Cultivation more or less gave up halfway due to the immense pain they feel.
