Berserk God of War

Sikong Jing’s eyes flashed with brilliance; he heard about the Desert Sea Absolute Array and the Divine Demon Islands again.

Why does it need to work once every three years, sacrifices only every three years?

He had long thought about it...

Quite possibly, it’s because the Cangyu Sect can only enter once every three years, each entry lasting only one or two months.

And now, Sikong Jing’s suspicion was confirmed by War Tiger.

This means that Cangyu Sect’s control over the Divine Demon Islands isn’t as terrifying as the Demons on Demon Scale Island think.

Thinking this, Sikong Jing asked in return, "Is it because my realm is too weak?"

To this, War Tiger gave a clear answer...

"Yes, you must reach the Spirit Martial Stage to have a chance."

"But now, you haven’t even reached the Martial Battle Stage; opening the Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness during the Martial Battle Stage is extremely difficult, plus you need to condense a Spiritual Shadow during the Spirit Martial Stage, each of these hurdles, even given three years, is nearly impossible."

"Given your age, reaching it by the next Absolute Formation Gate opening in six years would already be an extraordinary talent."

"Elder Ruan initially wanted to kill you because he felt that although you were decent, reaching the Spirit Martial Stage within six years still isn’t very hopeful. If you were a few years younger, that would be great."

The meaning is exactly: if Sikong Jing were still a young Demon Scale Person, his Peak of Martial Enlightenment would be considered a prodigy.

But Sikong Jing was already a youth, thus not a true genius.

The fact is: Only reaching the Spirit Martial Stage can truly catch Elder Ruan’s eye.

Sikong Jing murmured to himself while listening, "Spirit Martial Stage? War Tiger senior, how long until we reach Divine Demon Island?"

War Tiger blinked, not understanding Sikong Jing’s intentions, but still gave an answer.

Their Divine Shuttle Ship still needed to gather Demons from several nearby islands, taking half a month before they could reach Divine Demon Island.

"Half a month? Then it’s not a problem." Sikong Jing smiled and spoke.

War Tiger couldn’t help but widen his eyes, even more confused—what did Sikong Jing mean by no problem in half a month?

In the next moment... boom!

Sikong Jing’s whole body suddenly burst with True Qi, instantly reaching from the Peak of Martial Enlightenment to the Extraordinary Realm of Martial Battle Stage, and his True Qi surged upward, reaching the peak of the Extraordinary Realm within just a few breaths.

Such a terrifying breakthrough speed left War Tiger completely stunned.

Before he could react, Sikong Jing said, "War Tiger senior, I have already reached the Extraordinary Peak of the Martial Battle Realm; reaching the Spirit Martial Stage in half a month shouldn’t be a big problem."

As long as he reaches a level enough for Elder Ruan to take notice before Yinlu is sent to prison, he can secure a spot, even if he can’t help Elder Ruan elevate his status by then, saving Yinlu would be just a matter of Elder Ruan’s words.

Of course, Sikong Jing hopes to save all the sacrifices...

But for now, he has to proceed one step at a time, ensuring Yinlu’s safety first before dealing with anything else.

War Tiger stood there with his mouth agape, feeling ridiculous—what kind of joke is this?

He quickly regained a stern expression and said, "Martial Arts isn’t as simple as you think, it requires accumulation, even if you have enough accumulation to reach the peak of the Extraordinary Realm, you can’t just suddenly..."

"Hm, what’s going on now?"

Halfway through his words, War Tiger saw Sikong Jing’s body surging with True Qi once again.

The next moment brought another "boom," and Sikong Jing burst through from the peak of the Extraordinary Realm to the Dao Inquiry Realm.

He had reached the second Great Realm of the Martial Battle Stage...

After it concluded, Sikong Jing smiled and said, "War Tiger senior, accumulation indeed matters, but my accumulation might be faster than others."

War Tiger stared dumbfounded at Sikong Jing, then said again, "Seems I underestimated your talent; your island might have been suppressed by certain powers of the Desert Sea Absolute Array, allowing you to break through continuously once you came out, right?"

"But half a month for Spirit Martial Stage, you’re still underestimating Martial Arts; the development of Spiritual Platform Sea of Consciousness during Reverse Soul Realm will be a real challenge for you."

Despite finding Sikong Jing’s breakthrough speed somewhat incredible, he still felt the need to sternly warn him.

Claiming to reach Spirit Martial Stage in half a month is an exaggeration, young people must maintain humility and respect for Martial Arts.

Yet as soon as the words left his mouth, Sikong Jing responded, "Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness?"

Buzz...

A surge of Spiritual Platform Sea Power unexpectedly rolled out from Sikong Jing’s forehead, straight towards War Tiger.

However, Sikong Jing didn’t let Spiritual Platform Sea Power reach Emperor Martial Stage levels but kept it at the Martial Battle Stage realm.

Even so, War Tiger was still dumbfounded on the spot—what is going on here?

Sikong Jing laughed and said, "War Tiger senior, I’ve already opened up the Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness."

The tiger fur on War Tiger’s face twitched endlessly; it felt like a joke—where’s your reverence for Martial Arts?

No... is there any way this Black Scale Boy can show some respect?

Internally, War Tiger roared in anger repeatedly, yet still felt he needed to suppress this Black Scale Demon, regaining composure before saying, "Even if you opened the Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness, the aspect of Spiritual Shadow isn’t something half a month... My goodness!"

Halfway through his words, a weak Spiritual Shadow emerged from Sikong Jing’s forehead.

Of course, it was the Beast-shaped Spirit Shadow he was reconstructing; its appearance was temporarily unclear...

Precisely because it’s in reconstruction, the Beast-shaped Spirit Shadow seemed like a newly formed one in War Tiger’s eyes.

In short, War Tiger nearly fell to the ground, extending a tiger-pawed hand tremblingly pointing at Sikong Jing.

Mumbling out, "Impossible, absolutely impossible."

What is this—opening the Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness is explainable, but Spiritual Shadow requires the Spirit Martial Stage to form, even a monstrous talent couldn’t do it at Dao Inquiry Realm.

This violates the basic principles of Martial Arts.

To this, Sikong Jing finally said, "War Tiger senior, in fact, I’ve already reached the Spirit Martial Stage, it’s just that I fell into the sea."

He didn’t let War Tiger continue in astonishment.

If it continued, War Tiger might not resist inspecting his body thoroughly.

Upon hearing this, War Tiger finally came to his senses, his expression changed several times before exhaling a breath, realizing the Black Scale Demon in front of him was merely re-cultivating Martial Arts, apparently severely injured when falling into the sea.

At this point, Sikong Jing then asked, "War Tiger senior, can you now tell me about enhancing Elder Ruan’s status?"

Promising War Tiger the hope of Spirit Martial Stage in half a month, Sikong Jing directly touched on the main topic.

Taking a deep breath, War Tiger didn’t reveal the details immediately; instead, he looked at the surrounding Demon Scale Island Demons and said slowly, "I’ll detail it after we board the ship, for now let’s resolve the Demon Scale Island’s matters."

Previously Elder Ruan only gave War Tiger a quarter-hour.

Sikong Jing certainly nodded, then looking at the Demon Scale Island Master and others said, "Now, gather everyone on the island."

Regarding the dialogue between War Tiger and Sikong Jing, other than Yinlu and Brother Daniu who approached closely, others couldn’t hear; they still harbored displeasure towards Sikong Jing.

Especially the Demon Scale Island Master—damn this Black Scale Demon, really thinks he’s the Island Master?

However, War Tiger gave a fierce glare...

The Many Demons could only obediently comply, in fact, those going to work and all sacrifices had already gathered at Demon Scale Island.
