Chapter 8: Colonial Construction and Integration
"This soul mask... My spiritual willpower may even be able to surpass the 9th level warrior's realm before my body does..."
Although he is now only a sixth-level primary warrior, for the ordinary Minotaur of the tribe, becoming a powerful warrior with a reputation and experience in hundreds of battles is already the goal being pursued.
But Ye Han had never doubted that one day he would surpass the 9th level warrior and enter the realm of the Iron Hoof tribe leader, which was where his father Lei Li was today.
This is the confidence that comes from cultivating Xingyiquan, an internal martial art, for two lifetimes. It is also the strong willpower after transforming one's energy and embracing the elixir.
The emergence of the Soul Mask gave him another opportunity to enter this level with his spiritual power. In history, no Minotaur has ever activated their spiritual power, let alone made any achievements in this aspect. A Minotaur possessing terrifying spiritual powers was simply a joke compared to the Mong Beastman Alliance Empire. Ye Han's appearance, coincidentally, created this miracle.
Who would have thought that an ordinary Minotaur would possess such a terrifying mental power?
Ye Han knew this would become one of his most terrifying killer moves.
"The soul mask of the Trinity. However......" Ye Han's face suddenly revealed a hint of strangeness.
Then, in front of him, a strange mask appeared again, also composed of countless rays of light. However, unlike the golden soul mask, this cow-headed mask was silver and shining brightly.
Ye Han stretched out one finger again and pointed at the silver mask in front of him.
The silver mask suddenly shrank, also turning into a ray of light, but instead of merging into Ye Han's brow, it converged towards his heart.
Ye Han slowly closed his eyes.
A moment later, when he opened his eyes again, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, and he muttered to himself. "Indeed..."
Actually, this time at the Spirit Pool Conference, everyone said that Ye Fan's younger brother De Ru gained the most. Because he obtained two different powerful innate abilities, the "War Trample" of the Iron Hoof Tribe and the "Brave Ring" of the Blood Imprint Tribe. But what nobody knew was that the real big winner behind the scenes was actually Ye Han.
It's normally impossible for a hybrid Bloodhead to acquire racial talents, but the sudden appearance of that thread of energy in his heart unexpectedly stimulated the potential within his bloodline, granting him the triple talent. The Soul Mask is actually from the other half of Ye Han's human heritage.
The so-called Trinity is the aura that emerges from Ye Han's heart after embracing Dan. The internal family boxing, Xingyiquan, was originally a very complex system, and martial arts masters who could cultivate to the level of embracing Dan were extremely rare. However, even so, Ye Han had never heard of anyone who, after embracing Dan, would brew such a strange aura in their body.
According to his conjecture, this seems to be related to a series of changes in his soul crossing, and it was formed by chance under the coincidence.
After all, the Golden Elixir Realm in Neijiaquan is just a spiritual imagination, a category, and not really forming a golden elixir inside the body. Ye Han's was purely accidental, born out of mistaken energy circulation, if it were someone else, even if they followed his exact steps, it would be impossible to have such luck again.
However, the silk-like energy machine is indeed closely related to Ye Han's body, like a genetic code that contains all the experiences and messages of Ye Han's two lifetimes of practicing Xingyiquan. If one had to find an figurative analogy, Ye Han felt it was more like what ancient internal alchemists called the 'Linggen'.
As for the innate abilities of the Trinity, it is the release of the information about the "Three-Body Style" contained in that thread of Qi. This is what is called the Three Talents of Heaven, Earth and Man, which is the foundation of Internal Family Xingyiquan, representing the sun, moon and stars, containing infinite mysteries. It is said that all things come from the Three-Body Style, and everything in Xingyiquan comes from this.
And what made Ye Han so strange was that the silver mask represented a piece of information, a innate skill called "Colony Construction".
Unlike the Soul Mask, this is a consumable innate ability, meaning he can only use it three times. However, each of these three times, he can merge with the heart of a powerful life form and grasp all its strong powers. What is called "Colonization" is transformation, like a cuckoo occupying a magpie's nest, merging with which biological heart can gain the power of that powerful creature.
Ye Han knew that if this "Colony" ability was used well, how terrifying it would be. What kind of benefits would it bring to oneself? It's already hard to imagine.
"If I could get the heart of a powerful demon beyond the 9th level..."
Ye Han muttered to himself, with his own hard work and dedication to the internal martial art of Xingyiquan since childhood, his combat strength was only at the level of a sixth-grade warrior. But even he himself didn't quite understand how much his body had been strengthened. Adding to that, the physique of the Minotaur tribe was originally extremely robust, being constantly molded by the internal fist, like forging iron, repeatedly removing impurities, leaving only the hardest and most resilient metal, just like Ye Han's current state. Although it seemed that his physical strength wasn't considered strong among the Iron Hoof tribe or the Kaitel people. But even if the five or six strongest men in the tribe, who were over 2.4 meters tall, joined forces, they still couldn't surpass him in terms of physical strength. This was the result of years of practical experience within the tribe.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be called the strongest of the younger generation of Tie Tuo tribe. This is not just about his strength being there, after all, the Niu Tou tribe people are single-minded and more worshipful of those born with great physical strength.
Only Ye Han himself knew that his body density had reached an unimaginable level. His body, which was not considered tall and large in the Niu Tou tribe, weighed heavily to an extreme extent. Even when walking on slightly softer mud, his feet would sink in, because the muscles and bones inside his body were compressed with great force, making him as heavy as a piece of iron.
It can be said that his body is strong enough to withstand even more powerful forces. If he really uses the 'Colonel' innate talent, merging with the power of a super-strong magical beast that has surpassed the 9th level. Is it not saying that Ye Han's true strength, although his surface combat strength is only around 5 or 6 levels, is already enough to compare with the first person of the Iron Hoof tribe, his father Lei Li, this strong warrior who has surpassed the 9th level?
Ye Han muttered to himself, only saying half of what he wanted to say, and the rest of his words he didn't dare to continue thinking about. But in his heart, it was already a sea of flames. If it really was as he had imagined, then this time out, his strength would have a terrifying, explosive growth.
After all, in this world, aren't there powerful magical beasts that surpass even 9th-level warriors?
