Only upon reaching the Martial God level does one qualify to integrate other Martial Dao.
Gao Xuan felt he was just one step away; once he figured out how to take this step, he could imdiately achieve Martial God status.
Once the last drop of blood completed its transformation, Gao Xuan truly stepped into the Martial Saint level.
In this state, all aspects of Gao Xuan’s physical functions achieved a fundantal improvent. Most importantly, he could now resonate with the stars through the acupoints, using the power of the stars without relying on the materialization of physical strength.
Even for a Martial Arts Grandmaster, the use is ultimately the qi blood power of their own muscles and bones. No matter how strong, there is a limit.
The acupoints of a Martial Saint can resonate with the stars, using the limitless power of the universe. This significantly raises the power limit.
Gao Xuan stood motionless in the air, maintaining this position for a full ten seconds.
At the Martial Arts Grandmaster level, he had to mobilize the qi blood of the acupoints, creating an extrely delicate balance with the air to maintain a montary stillness. He relied on his masterful control of qi and blood to defeat Chen Siping by one move.
After becoming a Martial Saint, he could effortlessly hover in the air for one or two hours if he wanted to.
This illustrates the vast difference between a Martial Saint and a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
Upon this thought, Gao Xuan suddenly had a spark of inspiration to visit the Mountain Character Sect to see their Divine Spear. After all, the Thirteen Grand Protectors also wield spears.
Given his current level, seeing the Divine Spear should yield so insights.
Deciding to take action imdiately, Gao Xuan gracefully left the Celestial Soldier Mansion, flying all the way to the main hall of the Mountain Character Sect located in South City: Divine Yue Mansion.
The Six Paths and Eight Sects are all officially recognized sects by the Court, including the Divine Yue Mansion, which the Court paid to construct.
The Mountain Character Sect is quite straightforward; most mbers either join the military or run escort agencies to deliver goods. Their sect is very powerful, yet they conduct themselves with low-key discretion.
This aligns with the personality of the current Sect Leader, Tie Yue, who is modest and dislikes making a fuss.
The Mountain Character Sect has a good reputation both in Jianghu and with the Court, with many friends. Hence, Tie Yuan was so warm and welcoming to Gao Xuan, who was new to the Capital City.
There were a few young disciples at the entrance of the Divine Yue Mansion. Upon seeing Gao Xuan, they beca alert, but when they recognized him, their faces imdiately filled with smiles.
Recently, Gao Xuan had visited the Divine Yue Mansion twice, and nearly everyone in the Mountain Character Sect knew of this twenty-sothing Martial Arts Grandmaster.
It can be said that throughout the Mountain Character Sect, aside from Chen Siping and a few of his disciples, everyone else was quite friendly with Gao Xuan.
Two disciples eagerly approached with enthusiasm: "You’re here, please co inside."
Another disciple hurriedly went inside to notify Tie Yuan and Tie Yue. By the ti Gao Xuan entered the yard, Tie Yuan had already co out to welco him.
After a few months of recuperation, Tie Yuan’s injuries had long healed. Seeing Gao Xuan, he appeared quite excited: "Brother Gao’s visit brings glory, absolute glory... hahaha..."
After greeting with clasped hands, Tie Yuan warmly took Gao Xuan’s arm and walked with him: "What brings Brother Gao here today?"
Gao Xuan didn’t beat around the bush with Tie Yuan and directly stated his intention: "I’ve long heard of the three great Divine Spears of the Mountain Character Sect, and I’m eager to witness them. Would that be possible?"
"Haha, outsiders obviously cannot. But Brother Gao is a good friend, so of course, it’s not a problem."
Tie Yuan readily agreed, as the three Divine Spears are famous but ultimately just weapons, not secret techniques. There’s no fear of weapons being seen by others.
Tie Yuan, being a true disciple of the Sect Leader, had a high status and directly led Gao Xuan to the Hidden Blade Hall.
The Hidden Blade Hall was located at the core, surrounded by disciples of the Mountain Character Sect, and was itself constructed of solid Black Tortoise Stone. According to Tie Yuan, this Hidden Blade Hall was extraordinarily sturdy, even a Martial Saint couldn’t easily destroy it.
The Hidden Blade Hall had no windows, only a heavy iron door. Fortunately, the internal space was spacious enough, with Golden Light Pearls illuminating the enclosed area brightly.
There were dozens of spears placed there, with the most prominent being a silver long spear at the center.
The long spear in its entirety resembled rcury, with translucent silver light flowing unpredictably. Though it lay quietly on the table, it naturally exuded an aura of divine might reaching the heavens and the earth.
"This is our sect’s pri Divine Spear, the Kunlun."
Tie Yuan introduced, "The Kunlun Spear is the Sect Leader’s token, and only the Sect Leader can use it. However, this spear is quite mystical, and throughout the generations, few sect leaders have been able to wield it with ease."
As for its particular mystical qualities, Tie Yuan didn’t elaborate. As the pri Divine Spear of the Mountain Character Sect, even if he knew the details, it wouldn’t be appropriate to disclose them to outsiders.
Gao Xuan nodded; the Kunlun Spear indeed looked magical. However, what drew his attention more was the black heavy long spear beside it.
This long spear was placed on Black Tortoise Stone, which bore a deep imprint.
The black heavy long spear, even its blade was somberly black, and it seed to absorb one’s gaze.
Seeing Gao Xuan’s interest in the long spear, Tie Yuan explained: "The Suru Mountain Spear, nine feet nine inches and nine centiters long, weighs nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine jin. It is said to have been forged from extraterrestrial teorite iron. As far as I know, it is the first heavy weapon in this world..."
Gao Xuan was surprised as well; a weight of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine jin, which is not much less than the Golden Cudgel...
Given his current ability, he could barely wield it. But such a heavy weapon would be cumberso against foes of the sa tier, let alone executing agile maneuvers or varied spear techniques.
If facing lower-tier enemies, there would still be no need to wield such a cumberso weapon.
What was the purpose of creating this Suru Mountain Spear?
Tie Yuan understood Gao Xuan’s confusion and bitterly smiled: "It is said to have been created by a Martial God; the Suru Spear is the utmost sturdy and powerful, being the center of three thousand worlds, with unparalleled divine power..."
Gao Xuan stared at the Suru Spear in a daze; he had a sense that this spear was exactly what he needed. This intuition was based on his Martial Dao instincts, reinforced by the Six-winged Celestial Cicada.
With his current martial arts prowess, if he chose to seize it and flee, no one could stop him. Yet, it felt sowhat unfair to his friend...
Gao Xuan sighed inwardly: Tie Yuan is quite a good friend, but the Suru Spear is more compelling. This indeed leaves one in a dilemma!
