C440 Stria Corporis
As such, he was extremely familiar with the Stone Golems here.
And before this, there had never been a stone statue that had been touched by powder.
"How strange." Chu Yan walked in front of one of them and poked the golem's face.
In the next moment, Chu Yan's entire finger was not obstructed at all, and directly stabbed into the golem's face.
It was as if she was poking at soft snow, but it wasn't that cold.
"Hmm?"
In the blink of an eye, Chu Yan had already pulled out his finger and saw that there was a hole left on the golem's face.
Suddenly, he thought of a possibility.
"It can't be, can it?"
Chu Yan muttered, and extended his hand out to pat the golem's chest.
With a bang, Chu Yan did not use any martial skills, and did not even use much strength. However, this golem, suddenly crumbled in front of him, turning into a pile of dust.
Chu Yan's eyes flashed with both surprise and joy.
He quickly looked at the other stone men.
Just as he had expected, the stone golems that were originally made from solid rock would turn into dust the moment they were touched.
In other words, these stone men could only maintain one appearance.
The moment they were hit by the Divine Coagulation Finger, their bodies turned to dust. However, their outer appearance had not been destroyed.
And if they were struck by Small Non-Phase Point Star Finger, these stone golems would at most be shattered into five or six pieces, unlike the current situation where they were completely turned into dust.
"As expected, my thoughts were too simple." Chu Yan looked at his finger.
The scale of the increase in power of this arcane skill completely exceeded his expectations.
Not only did it become more powerful, but the loss of blood energy in his body also became much smaller.
As a result, even if there were no beasts that could replenish his Blood Qi, Chu Yan could still use this technique multiple times.
After mastering the God Binding Finger, Chu Yan practiced his water cover for another day. He estimated that he should have met all the people who should be meeting Li Xiu before, thus he came out of Return to the Ruins Tower with a gift to meet Li Xiu.
Regarding Chu Yan's appearance, Li Xiu had already expected it.
In fact, when he returned from metazoan that day, he was surprised to learn that the Elder Tang had actually chosen him as a disciple.
Because before that, he had always felt that the best candidate in the Elder Tang's heart should be Chu Yan.
However, being able to become the direct disciple of the Sword Master of the Shattered Star Pavilion, Li Xiu's mood was naturally extremely good.
The two talked for a while, before Chu Yan spoke out: "Senior brother Li, the truth is, there's another reason why I came to see you today."
"Mm, go ahead." Li Xiu replied, "I know your personality, so I reckon that you will come here in the next few days. If you had come even later, I might not be here anymore."
Seeing Chu Yan's doubtful expression, Li Xiu said: "My master's meaning is that he wants me to go to his place to cultivate for half a year. Once I rush to the Second Level of Pulse Condensation Stage, he will let me officially enter the sect."
"Second Level of Pulse Condensation Stage — —" Chu Yan muttered to himself, then his eyes suddenly flashed with a bright light. "In that case, Senior Brother Li already has a placing in next year's General Election of the Orthodoxy."
With the relationship between Li Xiu and Chu Yan, he naturally wouldn't hide it from Chu Yan, and nodded: "Although my master didn't say it, I think that's what he meant. He wanted me to allow me to not only complete a breakthrough in cultivation, but also a breakthrough in strength in the next half a year.
After saying that, Li Xiu paused, and looked at Chu Yan: "Junior Chu, you will not give up this opportunity, right?"
Li Xiu had personally witnessed Chu Yan's realm rising step by step.
Before this, who would have thought that a disciple who had been in the sect for less than a year would, in these ten months, complete a continuous jump from the initial stage of the 1st level of Pulse Condensation Stage to the peak of perfection?
This kind of Inherent Skill, this kind of strength, as long as Chu Yan could be promoted to the Second Level of Pulse Condensation Stage, then the spot representing the Shattered Star Pavilion would definitely not escape.
"I do." Chu Yan nodded.
There was still about half a year left. Although he had a very important matter to attend to, as long as he did not meet any big trouble, Chu Yan was very confident in being able to advance to the Second Level of Pulse Condensation Stage.
Furthermore, as the disciple in charge of Hua Muyan, if she could not even do this, and was not qualified to represent the Shattered Star Pavilion, his own teacher would probably do as he said, and cut off her head to prevent Chu Yan from humiliating him.
Hearing Chu Yan's reply, Li Xiu nodded his head: "So that means, the other thing you said earlier, is related to your advancement?"
"Not completely, but it's related to the increase of my strength." Chu Yan looked at Li Xiu, "Senior Brother Li, I would like to ask, the method you used to enter the way of life and death, is it a — Body Mark."
There were many types of inscriptions, and they were divided into pill and magical equipment based on their effects.
These two inscriptions either increased the effects, power, or partial abilities of medicinal pills and weapons.
Moreover, there were two kinds of inscriptions that were even more complicated than pill and artifact inscriptions.
These were body and soul imprints.
As the name implied, body markings were inscriptions that were engraved on the body.
As for soul markings, they were profound inscriptions that were carved onto the soul.
These two kinds of inscriptions had extremely high requirements for the Inscription master, and at the same time, they also had extremely high requirements for the person who inscribed the inscription patterns.
For example, body tattoos were inscribed on the body. That painful process of drawing wasn't something that anyone could endure.
One must know that when drawing a body mark, it could not stop once it started. If it was forcefully stopped, the person who was being drawn would directly die and the Inscription master would also suffer an extremely fierce backlash.
Thus, when they were inscribing body prints, the majority of them would not die from failure but rather from unbearable pain. They would either die from the pain or from interfering with Inscription master's request to die.
Amongst the 1,000 people that drew the body markings, it was difficult for even one of them to succeed.
If it wasn't for some special reason, no one would have chosen to draw body prints on their body.
Because of that pain, even though dozens of years had passed, it still caused people to have nightmares in the middle of the night.
That day in the underground river, Chu Yan saw the twisted patterns on Li Xiu's body.
Chu Yan who had absorbed the Inscription master's memories, recognized that the tattoos on Li Xiu's body were dangerous body tattoos. It was this tattoo that allowed him to turn into an Asura within that one minute, invincible.
Seeing that Li Xiu had gone silent, Chu Yan sighed, and said: "Senior Brother Li, I know that there are some things that are not suitable for me to say, but I also know that anyone who has body markings on their body must bear either national or family grudges, or both. Today, I have come to ask you, naturally, because I have some things on my body, and I hope that you can resolve them in a more suitable way."
