Chapter 792: Improvement (2)....

As Xiao Shi stepped into the Mountain God Temple, he saw a statue of a mountain god. Moreover, the moment he saw this mountain statue, the heart in his hand fluctuated. Brass-colored light kept bursting out from his heart, rippling in circles.
After touching the Mountain God Statue, a brass light also spread out from the Mountain God Statue. These brass lights gathered and fused into his glabella. This allowed Xiao Shi to have a complete understanding of the mountain statue.
This mountain statue was very similar to the evil ghost statue from before. There was an era inside. However, the difference between the two was that the era in the evil ghost statue was sealed by someone. While the era inside the Mountain God Statue took the initiative to refine it.
According to the information Xiao Shi received, the Mountain God Statue in front of him was an expert from a certain era. After reaching the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, he refined the era he was in into his body and created a unique and powerful system.
Then, for some reason, this ninth-stage martial artist had turned into a mountain statue, his life and death unknown.
Until the Great Wu Era, the mountain statue that this expert had transformed into was obtained by the demigod who founded the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect by chance. Following that, this demigod used the mountain statue to form the Mountain God lineage of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect.
“If that’s the case, the reason why the demigod who founded the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect carried out the seal of the Era of Evil Ghost is probably because of this mountain statue.”
Xiao Shi was enlightened. Although he had first come into contact with the evil ghost statue after entering the altar, he knew that the demigod who founded the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect must have encountered the mountain statue first before having the thought and inspiration to seal the Era of Evil Ghosts.
With a deeper understanding, Xiao Shi realized that in this area, he could also increase the abilities of the Mountain God lineage. However, the method of improvement was different from the previous evil ghost area.
The improvement here was mainly in refining.
Xiao Shi needed to completely refine the huge mountain range he was in. According to the information he obtained, this mountain range was not an ordinary mountain range. Instead, it was a holy mountain with a huge background and was quite extraordinary to begin with.
If he could complete the refinement of this Holy Mountain, the strength of Xiao Shi’s lineage would definitely advance by leaps and bounds.
Xiao Shi decisively began to refine it. The specialty of the Mountain God lineage was mainly in the refinement of mountains and rivers. But his refinement was only a short-term refinement. This refinement was only for a short period of time, causing the mountains and rivers to belong to him. It could not last long.
Now, Xiao Shi’s refinement of this Holy Mountain was a permanent refinement. As long as he successfully refined it, this Holy Mountain would exist in his body forever.
He could clearly feel the enhancement this Holy Mountain brought to him as he continued to refine it. Under his continuous refinement, the entire huge Holy Mountain shook. It was successfully refined by Xiao Shi.
The holy mountain instantly disappeared, and directly fused into his body. Xiao Shi felt the Holy Mountain in his body. He was very excited. Now, when he used the power of the Mountain God’s lineage, he did not have to refine the mountains and rivers where he was temporarily located like in the past. He only needed to extract the power in the Holy Mountain in his body. It was equivalent to him being in this Holy Mountain at any time.
The Mountain God lineage had always had an obvious weakness. Once he fought the enemy in the air and could not step on the ground to obtain the enhancement of the mountains and rivers, the strength that the Mountain God lineage could unleash would be quite limited.
Therefore, those who knew the weakness of the Mountain God’s lineage would specially choose the location of the battle in the air when fighting the people from the Mountain God’s lineage. They did not give the Mountain God’s lineage a chance to use the mountains and rivers.
Now, Xiao Shi no longer has this weakness. Even if he fought in the air, he would not be affected at all. He felt the strength of the current Mountain God lineage. It was not inferior to the evil ghost lineage.
This further confirmed that once he could complete the upgrade of the Four Symbols here, the Four Symbols would all reach the level of a top Daolord. It was equivalent to saying that he would have four powerful attacks comparable to the Qianqi Dao Slash. And as long as he gathered the powers of the four lineages, he could unleash the strength of a demigod.
“This must be the strongest power of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect!” Xiao Shi’s eyes burned. After successfully increasing the strength of his Mountain God lineage, he continued to the next area.
Whoosh!
However, the moment he walked out of this area, he suddenly fell into a dark and empty world. Just as Xiao Shi was secretly vigilant, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.
It was the fallen Heavenly King Yao Xi!
Just as Heavenly King Yao Xi appeared, she immediately attacked Xiao Shi.
“A dream…” Xiao Shi narrowed his eyes. He knew that he had already entered a dream. Heavenly King Yao Xi had already died in reality, so it was impossible for her to appear again. But what shocked him was that the Heavenly King Yao Xi had the same ability as the one in reality.
Even the way she attacked was completely the same. The moment the other party attacked, the confusion of time had already filled Xiao Shi’s surroundings.
“Even the rules of time have appeared in the dream!” Xiao Shi was shocked. He realized that the dream here was very different from the dream he had woven himself. The dream here was extremely stable. It was not much different from the real world.
If it was a dream that Xiao Shi had woven, he could easily escape the dream and enter and exit it freely. However, he realized that he could not escape this dream at all.
He had a strong premonition. Although this was a dream, if he died here, he would really die! Fortunately, after he discovered that he had entered this dream world, his ability had successfully been unsealed. He immediately used the power of the Mountain God’s lineage.
Rocks of different sizes quickly spread out from his body and covered him. It turned him into a giant made of rocks. Just as he transformed into a stone giant, the rocks on his body shrank back into his body, as if time had been reversed.
It prompted him to return to the time before many rocks covered his body a second ago. This was not the first time Xiao Shi had experienced the ability of Heavenly King Yao Xi to control time. This was also the most troublesome part when he fought Heavenly King Yao Xi.
Heavenly King Yao Xi had already arrived in front of Xiao Shi. She raised her hand and waved it. Xiao Shi’s entire head was immediately thrown high into the air. After losing his head, his body turned into a stiff stone. This was only one of his substitutes.
Whoosh!
Xiao Shi’s figure appeared in the distance. He frowned. Even though his evil ghost and mountain god lineages had been greatly strengthened, he was still no match for Heavenly King Yao Xi. If he wanted to leave this dream, he had to get rid of Heavenly King Yao Xi in the dream.
Xiao Shi decisively adopted the previous method. He took out his heart and prepared to use the heart in his hand to crack Heavenly King Yao Xi. However, when he took out the heart, there was no movement at all.
Heavenly King Yao Xi did not dissipate under the effects of the heart. She was still intact and did not undergo any changes.
“The heart doesn’t work here?” Xiao Shi’s expression darkened.
