As Tang Peng walked out of the forest, the blazing sun shone directly on him, blinding him with its intense light. As he shielded his eyes with his hand, he could see that he had approached the foot of a mountain.
He checked his arm again. This time, the arrow had enlarged to cover his entire arm. The attraction to the destination on this mountain was so powerful, it was as if he would involuntarily fly towards the destination at any moment.
However, Tang Peng was really excited for this moment. It was time to see if his bet to enter the boundary had paid off or not. With a fanatic look in his eyes, he ran towards the foot of the mountain, and started to ascend immediately.
When Tang Peng first stepped onto the mountain, he could feel a dense negative aura emitting from the mountain. The sunlight seemed to be unable to penetrate the negative aura, as he could not see any sunlight once he was on the mountain.
Surprisingly, the dense negative aura did not hinder him at all. In fact, it was like a burden had been removed from his shoulders. His limbs had become more flexible and muscular under the effect of the negative aura. The fatigue that he has accrued from the fight earlier was entirely resolved.
"It feels like I'm being bathed in sunlight." The negative aura felt as warm as sunlight to him. Tang Peng's soul was constantly absorbing the negative aura, allowing it to use the negative aura to strengthen his body.
Originally, Tang Peng did not have the strength or stamina to ascend a mountain. The effect of strengthening of his legs was about 30% of the Ninety Nine Heavenly Kicks, but it was enough to help him climb up the mountain.
Tang Peng started to ascend the mountain. He grabbed a random tree, and used it to pull himself up further. The mountain did not have a paved path like the one in Nine Step Sect. He had to manually climb up himself using his hands.
As he grabbed it tightly, he winced as he felt the friction of holding the tree hurt his hand. However, he continued to move upwards and planted his feet in another location.
As he slowly ascended up the mountain, he grabbed rocks, plants, anything that was stuck in his ground. There were a few moments where the dirt came loose, and he nearly dropped to death, but he always managed to drop on something nearby.
His body had suffered severe injuries which would normally incapacitate him from the drops, but the energy that was provided by the negative aura healed him slowly. He just rested on the object that he had been dropped on for a while, before continuing with his journey.
As he eventually got closer to his destination, the dense negative aura increased, helping him to move even faster. Now, the boost to his legs was 70% of Ninety Nine Heavenly Kicks.
The increased strength helped him to jump effortlessly to the place he wanted to be in. He would leap onto the dirt, with enough strength to sink slightly into the dirt, before he jumped again. This way, he did not require holding on to the objects anymore, as he could simply jump up.
Tang Peng started to understand that his condition now probably had something to do with this negative aura. After all, his body became more powerful after he had been exposed to it. He no longer doubted the existence of the cultivator's legacy. After all, only a powerful cultivator could probably create such a dreadful aura.
At long last, as Tang Peng climbed up a rock, the arrow on his arm flew out and pierced a barrier that was invisible to the naked eye. The barrier flashed for a second, and Tang Peng quickly hauled himself up. He had lost the attraction to the destination, but the barrier shimmered for a second, and quickly disappeared.
"I have been waiting for a few days. Now, I just have to regain the rest of my soul." Tang Peng spotted a corpse on the floor. Even though the body was twisted and broken in many different ways, the corpse just twisted them back to the original position.
"You're the boy I possessed earlier, huh. I will have to thank you for returning me to my body, this is my gift to you!" A powerful blast formed in his hand, condensed of the large negative aura which surrounded both of them.
Lai Qing casually tossed the Yin Blast of Extremity at Tang Peng. It was a purple fire, that was filled with various Yin Toxins. No one had been able to resist his move, unless they were of the Yin Body Type. Even then, he tried to avoid them, so he quickly became a powerful existence using this skill he had comprehended himself.
However, he did not expect that the blast did not even affect Tang Peng, but instead it dissipated into purple gas and was absorbed by Tang Peng's body. Tang Peng, who had not even noticed the attack, was at first surprised, but after realising the attack did no damage to him, he became much more confident in dealing with this old man.
"I should have known! No normal person would have been able to resist the chaotic aura of my boundless Yin Qi!" The dense negative aura around the both of them, was actually the Yin Qi which spilled out of the soul when Lai Qing's soul had shattered.
"It seems like I will have to use more power to defeat you!" Lai Qing's eyes hardened, as his body, strengthened by the effects of Yin Qi, flew forward to deal a vicious punch to Tang Peng's gut!
However, as Lai Qing's fist got ever closer to Tang Peng's gut, his fist had slowed down to a stop. He looked on with horrification as his arm started to crumble. He quickly retreated back to his original location.
"What kind of monster are you? Even an Yin Body Type cultivator cannot absorb Qi directly from the soul..." Lai Qing used the Yin Qi to form himself another purplish arm.
"Since you have made your move, old man, it's time for you to see my move!" Tang Peng's pasted all the remaining talismans on him. He was not sure if this cultivator still had any other move, so he wanted to take this chance to put him down for good!
Under the effect of the Yin Qi and Ninety Nine Heavenly Kicks, his legs had been enhanced to an incredible state. He became a blur, as he rapidly kicked Lai Qing several times. With every kick, Lai Qing's body could not help but simply dissolve into dust.
"You young bloody upstarts...! Ke!" The power that had been powering the corpse and the soul were all siphoned away by Tang Peng. Lai Qing angry shout was stuck in his throat, as all that was left of him now was some robes and a book.
