Tall mountains filled the Hundred Break Mountain Range, stretching for thousands of li. The number of Demonic Beast King level Demonic Beasts was not few. For so many years, although most of the effort of Tianmu Planet had been concentrated on exploring the higher-ranked Heaven Connecting Towers, the remaining efforts were not to be underestimated.
After so many years, the Hundred Break Mountain Range was like a huge impassable wall, blocking the exploration attempts of the Tianmu Planet.
There had never been any cultivator that managed to pass through the entire Hundred Break Mountain Range. Nobody knew what was hidden in its depths as well.
Near the core of the Hundred Break Mountain Range, in a valley surrounded by tall mountains.
Bei Feng no longer had any hopes in using the Thousand Transformations the way he’d hoped to. There was basically no way for him to control Thousand Year Kings with it for now.
This was also the case for some Hundred Year realm beings. There was completely no value in controlling normal Demonic Beasts and human cultivators. As for the more talented cultivators, the moment they broke through to the Thousand Year King realm, they would be able to escape his control. That was because reaching the Thousand Year King realm meant an upgrade of life, completely remolding the body. Without any exaggerations, the moment a being broke through to the Thousand Year King realm, even their cells, blood, and bones would be completely changed!
And in the process of the change, the Thousand Transformations powder would undoubtedly be flushed out of the cells along with the body’s impurities.
“My Fisherman Grade has already reached the Fourth level now, and I have over 11 million experience points, enough to fulfill the conditions for an upgrade,” Bei Feng muttered, but he ultimately still gave up the thought.
“The higher my Fisherman Grade is, the higher chance of catching high-level items. Just like that giant that time—if it had been even just a little stronger, the fishing hook would not have been enough to restrain it. I can only raise the Fisherman Grade after I break through to the Thousand Year King realm.”
Bei Feng thought for a moment; this was only one of the reasons. The other reason was that the commotion created by upgrading his Fisherman Grade was simply too big, and it would definitely be felt even tens of thousands of li away.
Back when he was on Earth, the Heaven Earth Lingqi of a thousand li had all been drawn over when he upgraded his Fisherman Grade.
And this time, the commotion caused by the advancement would undoubtedly be even greater. The difference was that this was not Earth ! Thousand Year Kings were everywhere, and the strength of some powerhouses here was too vast. Once he startled some old demon, it would lead to a disaster!
As for himself, it would be hard for him to find an opponent within the Hundred Year realm, and he should also be evenly matched with a normal Thousand Year King.
As for his suspicions toward the System, Bei Feng now took it much more lightly.
After all, the System had saved his life before. Without it, he would have already died.
It’s about time to return to the city , Bei Feng thought to himself as he revolved the Minor Illumination Body Tempering Technique to refine the remnant medicinal energy in his body.
He’d used too many spirit herbs in the recent period, and there was no way that his body could absorb one hundred percent of the medicinal energy. There were definitely lots of remnant energy still hidden in his body.
Not only medicinal energy, there were lots of impurities as well. Although Bei Feng’s body was free of impurities now, that was only assuming that he did not eat forever. As long as he ate any spirit herbs or meat, there were bound to be impurities left behind in his body.
And if these impurities were not expelled from the body quickly, it would result in damage to the body. The saying that all medicine was one-third poison carried exactly this meaning.
“Pu-chi!”
Large amounts of Heaven Earth pressure crushed in on all sides, without any gaps. It was as if a hammer from the heavens, beating and refining Bei Feng’s body!
Bei Feng’s face was devoid of joy or pain as streams of purplish black impurities were forced out of his skin!
“Pu!” The impurities mixed with blood spurted out like arrows, leaving numerous little holes on the ground. The green grass on the ground quickly turned yellow upon coming into contact with the mixture of blood, and then wilted in the blink of an eye.
One could easily imagine the degree of toxicity of those impurities, and how much damage they would cause if they remained in the body!
“Pop!”
“Pa!”
Loud sounds as though tendons being snapped rang out from Bei Feng’s body as his flesh and muscles became stronger, and his blood Qi also grew more vibrant!
Bei Feng opened his eyes after a long time. The medicinal energy remaining in his body had mostly been refined. He only needed to cultivate the Minor Illumination Body Tempering Technique for a few more times, and the remaining medicinal energy should be completely expelled.
If others could see the speed at which Bei Feng absorbed and refined the medicinal energy, it would definitely create a huge storm!
The disciples of the large clans and sects were all born with golden spoons in their mouths. Even if one did not talk about talent, their cultivation speed would still be several times faster than normal people’s.
That was because there were always huge amounts of resources for them to use, allowing them to cultivate much faster than an ordinary person!
But every time they swallowed a spirit herb, they would need to spend huge amounts of time to expel the impurities as well as to completely absorb the medicinal energy!
If everyone could disregard the medicinal energy remaining in their bodies, then all the rich kids with the support of huge organizations would grow so fast that it would cause everyone else to despair!
Even if there was still the barrier of comprehending the next realm, their speed would still far surpass a normal cultivator’s!
“Who would have thought that this Minor Illumination Body Tempering Technique that I’d created accidentally would actually such a great use now.” Bei Feng smiled lightly. This could be considered fate as well.
“It’s time to take a break from cultivation for now. I’ve just reached the peak of the Hundred Year realm, and the next goal is to attack the barrier of the Thousand Year King realm. It cannot be rushed, and my foundations need to become firm first before breaking through in one shot!”
Bei Feng’s sight was not blinded by the achievements he’d obtained. He naturally knew that having a stable foundation right now was the most important thing.
Truthfully, if one looked at the official demarcation of cultivation realms, there was no such thing as a half-step Thousand Year King realm. The only reason there was such a thing was because there were people that failed in their breakthrough to the Thousand Year King realm.
But even though they’d failed, their strength still far surpassed the Hundred Year realm, which was how a level like half-step Thousand Year King realm came to be!
Bei Feng did not have any wish to linger in the half-step Thousand Year King realm. It was best to succeed on the first try.
Bei Feng smiled lightly, his heart filled with confidence. “I’m already looking forward to breaking through to the Thousand Year King realm.”
Right now, whether it was his physical body or his blood Qi, all of it had already approached the perfection of the Hundred Year realm. Just the strength of his body was already enough to contend against some weaker half-step Thousand Year Kings!
The same went for his blood Qi. It’d already reached the peak of the Hundred Year realm, and was also incomparably pure. The total quantity of his blood Qi was comparable to 10 times that an ordinary peak Hundred Year realm cultivator, and was similarly not any weaker than a half-step Thousand Year King’s!
Even Bei Feng himself didn’t know how strong he was with those two factors combined. Perhaps even if he couldn’t beat a slightly weak Thousand Year King, he would be able to escape with ease!
Right now, he’d only just broken through, and there was still space for his blood Qi to improve. After a period of time, when he managed to completely master his full strength and his blood Qi reached the maximum capacity, it would be the day when he broke through to the Thousand Year King realm!
Once he broke through, both his physical body and his blood Qi strength would be in the Thousand Year King realm. That meant that Bei Feng would at least birth two spirit power abilities. And when his Heavenly Laws Embodiment Technique reached the Fourth Layer as well, it would also birth another spirit power ability!
“Lu Bu!” Bei Feng called as he stood up. He was dressed in a white, with a crisp green jade hung around his waist. His hair was tied neatly behind him, and he looked as elegant as an immortal!
“This subordinate is here!” Lu Bu’s body had grown another level in just this short period of time, and he now stood at a height of 1.9 meters. His face had a resolute and steadfast feel to it, and his body radiated an intense battling intent as though he was a fierce tiger!
“Gather everyone, we’re making the return journey!”
Bei Feng’s voice rang out in the mountain gorge, causing Lu Bu to feel a sense of pressure.
“Yes!” Lu Bu nodded immediately.
They’d all been out here for a long time; it was still fine for him, but some of the guards in the team had families outside. He still needed to care about their feelings. In that moment, his figure flashed and disappeared.
“HOU!”
Right after Lu Bu left, a loud roar rang out, as shocking as thunder. A powerful pressure surged out, causing everyone in the mountain gorge to feel indescribably stifled.
“Don’t be impudent!” Lu Bu’s voice rang out, and a huge halberd descended from the sky like a heavy mountain!
“Dang!”
A black claw instantly struck out, tearing through the clouds and smashing together with the halberd.
“Ta-ta!” A line of blood flowed out from the side of Lu Bu’s mouth, and he stumbled backwards uncontrollably for numerous steps. The Heavenly Halberd in his hand trembled intensely, and Lu Bu’s palm was split open, causing silverish blood to drip onto the ground.
“Unparalleled, Broken Moon!”
Lu Bu’s eyes shone, and, disregarding his injuries, he rose into the air with his halberd like a battle god, sweeping the halberd out!
“Look! That’s the moon!”
“How can it be, it’s still broad daylight right now!”
“It’s Boss Lu attacking. He’s so strong… had we fallen so far behind already without us even knowing?” someone said with a sigh as he clenched his fists tightly.
“Whom does the other aura belong to? Lord Gu Qi is inside the mountain gorge. Could there be another Demonic Beast that’s so blind as to intrude this place?” another guard exclaimed as he looked at the huge black claw.
“That’s the injured Demonic Beast that Lord Gu Qi brought back! As expected, Demonic Beasts are still just Demonic Beasts. It’s one thing if it’s not grateful, but to think that it even started attacking! If we knew it would be like that, we should have killed it at the beginning!” another person said with rage.
As his words rang out, he didn’t notice that the gangster rabbit Gu Qi and the other two Thousand Year King Demonic Beasts had turned to look at him with unkind gazes…
“HOU! Spirit power, Golden Dragon Extermination!” A loud voice rang out, and golden light abruptly burst out from the stone chamber, directly cutting through the mountain cliff, emanating dazzling light as it hung suspended in the sky!
A bright moon the size of a horse carriage slowly rose into the sky, appearing behind Lu Bu’s back. This moon was filled with dents, and its sharpness was like a crescent moon blade, emitting a cold light. Within a circle of a thousand meters, an intense frost covered the ground!
“Boom!” As the attack appeared, the entire space shook and fine cracks appeared in the air as if it couldn’t bear the pressure. The space mended quickly, and the two attacks clashed together, causing dazzling light to burst out in all directions!
Bursts of silver and gold shot out in all directions.
As the silvery white light sliced across, numerous small mountains tilted soundlessly and suddenly collapsed!
A golden ray shot out from the center of the attack, tearing through the mountain gorge. A thousand meter long valley appeared across the ground, its depths unfathomable!
