We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

Chapter 193 Half-Step Sea Opening Realm

Another half day later~
As time passed, the fighting on the main battlefield was nearing its end.

Several large holes were visible in the thick black clouds, through which one could see a sky as blue as a sapphire, with golden beams of light flowing down and gently falling on the blood-soaked ground, bringing a touch of comfort and warmth to this devastated scene.

The once barren ground was now covered in a layer of blood and gore, and on this blood-red carpet lay the massive, mountain-like remains of ferocious beasts.

Their bodies were twisted or broken, their huge, bloody skeletons exposed to the air, covered with dried dark red bloodstains, making them look particularly ferocious and terrifying.

Some heads rolled away in the distance, their empty eye sockets staring at the sky.

"Finally... finally it's over." A short-haired man, a late-stage Sea Opening Realm martial artist, looked at the few remaining war machines and let out a long sigh of relief, leaning heavily against the body of a silver-armored demon wolf.

After three days and seventy-two hours of non-stop fighting, he finally saw hope for an end.

only.

"I wonder if Captain Yue and his two companions can defeat the enemy." After regaining some strength, the short-haired man looked up at the sky, which was filled with constant booming explosions.

The outcome of this battle is not determined by these people; the true decision rests with those in the heavens.

The battle between Yu Yuefeng, Lei Zhentian, Cheng Shangwu, and Shen Juanlamu.

King against king, general against general, soldier against soldier.

In the world of high martial arts, the outcome of every battle is determined by the kings of both sides, which is why the Great Xia Dynasty has always longed for the emergence of a Martial God.

Because only God can oppose God!
"This is Lone Wolf from the Sharp Sword Enforcement Team. All law enforcement officers who hear this message, please confirm receipt and reply."

"Please confirm receipt of the message and reply."

"..."

Hearing the voice in his ear, the short-haired man looked up at the shattered black cloud, and his eyes immediately flashed with joy. With a slight thought, his nanosuit contracted.

As for the Force Armor, the short-haired man had already disarmed himself a day earlier, because the Force Armor was designed to enhance the combat power of warriors at or above the Sea Opening Realm.

When using Force Armor, Force will pour out like water, which will greatly reduce one's combat power in such intense battles.

"Great! It seems this battle is finally coming to an end!"

The short-haired man looked down at the smart bracelet on his wrist, which was now working properly. His tense heart immediately relaxed, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

The fact that the smart bracelet is working properly means that the "battle of kings" in the sky is nearing its end, and Yue Feng and his two companions have gained the upper hand.

However, this is normal, after all, it is a localized, low-intensity war that took place within the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, and the strength of the opposing side is only a few hundred thousand ferocious beasts, mainly second-tier ferocious beasts.

Those who do not reach the third rank will ultimately remain ants.

Moreover, the energy level of this Cave Heaven World No. 98 is only level 31.0, which can at most accommodate a powerhouse who has just entered the fourth rank. Divine Blessed Ram is facing three martial artists with strength at the peak of the Sea Opening Realm.

As mentioned before, the outcome of this battle was already determined from the beginning; it was only a matter of time before a victor emerged.

For Yuwen Changkong and Shen Bailian, two top martial arts prodigies, Lei Zhentian and Cheng Shangwu's intention was simply to give them more practical combat experience.

And plate it with gold while you're at it.

"Wang Baofeng has been informed that he is safe and alive and does not require rescue for the time being..." The short-haired man was completely familiar with this procedure.

boom!
With a slight thought, the short-haired man took out a high-grade third-tier nutritional potion from his storage ring, then gulped it down in one go, preparing to recover his strength before turning back to the rest of the battlefield.

As for the Force?

It's not needed for the time being, or rather, it's no longer necessary for the current stage of the battle.

The strength of a martial artist at the Opening Sea Realm lies not only in their abundant and vast reserves of primal force, but also in their powerful physique. The two complement each other, yet each fights independently.

Regardless of which one is exhausted first, the other is enough to support a Sea Opening Realm warrior in maintaining the most basic combat power.

however.

"No! This time it's different!" The short-haired man's eyes widened suddenly as he felt a surge of desire, hunger, and other sensations welling up in his body, and his body grew hotter and hotter, his blood boiling.

He immediately realized that this was a sign that his physical fitness level was about to break through.

without hesitation.

"Ask for support, please support!"

"I need protection. I sense that my cultivation level is about to break through, and my coordinates have been uploaded to the war base..."

Wang Baofeng grabbed his weapon, his figure moving like lightning, his speed instantly exceeding Mach 1, and darted towards the area where the martial artists were most concentrated.

Not far away, several martial artists received the news and immediately rushed towards Wang Baofeng without hesitation.

……

Within the treasure land that Shen Bailian had previously discovered.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

From time to time, terrifying roars echoed through the deep fog, as if a giant beast was constantly uttering its delirious cries.

Combined with the thick smog in the sky and the constantly flashing lightning, it was unsettling and gave off a chilling feeling.

However, this was nothing to Wang Qiangguo, whose strength had reached the mid-stage of the Sea Opening Realm. Even if the legendary ghost came, he would easily defeat it with a single punch.

An extremely powerful physical body is nourished by vital energy and blood as vigorous as the blazing sun.

However, Wang Qiangguo now harbors many doubts.

"What exactly happened before? Why do I keep feeling like I've been through a bizarre dream?" Wang Qiangguo stood high in the sky, rubbing his temples, and muttered to himself:

"And what about that nuclear explosion before?"

Even though the second-tier Dream Fruit used in Melbourne had been enhanced with divine power, the degree of enhancement was still completely unrealistic because it had almost no authority of its own.

Therefore, it only trapped Wang Qiangguo for most of the day before it completely lost its effectiveness.

This is also what left Wang Qiangguo completely bewildered. After he woke up, he discovered that the precious land he was in had undergone earth-shattering changes.

The mountains and forests of this treasure land were originally teeming with a large number of ferocious beasts of different shapes and strengths, but now they seem to have all vanished.

However, after Wang Qiangguo conducted a brief reconnaissance of part of the forest, he realized that he had been overthinking things. The ferocious beasts hadn't hidden away; they had simply been slaughtered.

Furthermore, a small-scale nuclear explosion inexplicably occurred near this precious land.

And he, Wang Qiangguo, a seasoned soldier in the military, a mid-stage martial artist whose strength was about to reach the late stage of the Opening Sea Realm, was completely unaware of all of this.

It's impossible to say that nothing unexpected will happen.

However, the person involved in all of this simply sent him a message before entering the core area of ​​the dense fog to cultivate, leaving no time to ask any questions.

"Is Shen Bailian, the number one person in the history of Tiangang Academy and a top martial arts prodigy, really a 'hidden holy body'?" Wang Qiangguo stared straight into the depths of the thick fog, his gaze seemingly piercing through the fog mixed with divine substances, reaching the lake in the core area.

Of course, this is impossible.

Regardless of the fact that Wang Qiangguo's spiritual power has only reached the mid-stage of the second tier, his divine matter alone is beyond the comprehension of martial artists in the Opening Sea Realm.

When a martial artist at the Opening Sea Realm encounters divine matter, if they do not wish to be corrupted by divine power and become a puppet of the gods, they can only resist with their primal force. However, even the primal force, which is stronger than the primal force of heaven and earth, is far inferior in rank to the lowest level of divine matter.

To exaggerate, the former encountering the latter is like a drop of water falling onto a red-hot iron; not only will it not be damaged in the slightest, but it will also be evaporated at an extremely fast speed.

Therefore, most martial artists, when fighting against divine beings, rely on the "power of heaven and earth" and the "overall trend" to avoid close contact as much as possible.

The Great Completion Battle Body and the Holy Body can be exempted from the risk of divine corruption, and can be regarded as a collection of the consciousness of the universe, leaving a glimmer of hope for the human race.

As for the thick fog in front of him, which was mixed with divine substances, Wang Qiangguo could not stay in it for too long.

So after a brief test, he went in at full speed, and after confirming Shen Bailian's safety, he immediately withdrew.

"What a pity, such talent could never belong to our military." Wang Qiangguo felt a slight shock and regret as he listened to the faint rumbling sound coming from the depths of the thick fog.

The Northern Legion wasn't unaware of Shen Bailian; in fact, they had noticed him before he even finished the Wilderness Trial in his second year of high school.

Without the strong cooperation of the Northern Legion, it would have been impossible for Kong Chaowu alone to ensure the safety of all the "Young Eagles" in Project Eagle (Chapter 34).

Only special envoys from the military have a high degree of control over such matters.

However, Shen Bailian's growth rate was too fast, so fast that it was somewhat abnormal. Some people even wanted to pry into his secrets, but they were stopped by some people in the Northern Army.

As it turns out, they did the right thing.

After that epic battle in the Golden Cup League, a freshman, facing a martial arts prodigy who was already a junior, didn't suffer a crushing defeat, but rather almost won.

This battle was something that had never happened before in the history of the Great Xia New Era.

After that battle, no one would dare to question the value of the title "top martial arts prodigy" or harbor any ill intentions towards Shen Bailian.

However, this also means that Shen Bailian will no longer have the possibility of truly joining the Northern Army.

Top martial arts prodigies are neither bound by any framework nor can they be.

Conversely, those who can be constrained by frameworks will not be top-tier martial arts prodigies.

……

In order to protect what they deserve—that drop of the world's origin, to avoid unnecessary conflict, and also to better contain the divine matter within the dense fog of the core area.

Therefore, after quickly tidying up, Shen Bailian silently returned to the core area of ​​the treasure land, sat cross-legged in the very center of the lake, and immersed himself almost entirely in cultivation.

Quietly awaiting the end of the battle on the main battlefield.

At this stage, Shen Bailian has reached the fourth level of martial arts skill, and has made a qualitative leap in his control over his body and the fine control of his primal force.

Stepping on water or slipping into thin air are things that can be done with ease.

As for maintaining cultivation while sitting cross-legged on the water, it's not a difficult task; all you need is the skill of multitasking.

[Congratulations, your divine matter has been upgraded, divine matter +1]

[Congratulations! Your Five Elements Breathing Technique skill has been upgraded. Experience points +1]

Congratulations! Your character level experience has increased by 1.

【…】

"evolution."

"No, it should be transformation, enhancement... and growth now." Shen Bailian held a second-tier star crystal in each hand, completely calmed his mind, and guided the energy of heaven and earth into the Dragon Gate Seed within his body to be tempered.

The internal organs each maintained their own regular vibration frequency.

He could clearly sense that every cell in his body was absorbing the primordial energy of heaven and earth. His cells became fuller and rounder, his muscles became stronger and more resilient, his skin became tougher, like metal, and his bones became denser, as if they were cast from molten steel...

Congratulations! Your physical attribute has been improved!

Congratulations! Your Spirit attribute has been improved!

Two notification messages flashed on the panel.

"Hmm?" Shen Bailian felt his increased strength and mental power, and instantly regained his senses: "My physical attributes have finally improved. It's over."

He put the two unused second-tier star crystals back into his storage ring, feeling the surging primal force, powerful mental strength, and seemingly inexhaustible power and stamina within his body.

His already formidable power was further enhanced. Looking up into the distance, his five senses—sight, hearing, smell, and more—had all made astonishing progress.

This is the evolution of life, a miracle of martial arts.

After two days and two nights of cultivation, Shen Bailian's martial arts realm and spiritual power level have reached a new level, making significant progress.

"My physical attributes." Shen Bailian's eyes flashed slightly, then he turned his peripheral vision to the illusory yet clear panel.

Character Level: LV9 (2207/3000)

Physical Strength: 20.1; Spirit: 19.8

【Eight-in-One Great Sun Visualization Method LV2 (275/900)】

Divine Skill: Shadow Follows LV6 (2/160) (Energy Storage: 1 times)
Eye of God LV2 (386/700)

Active Skill: Gale LV2 (591/600)

Tian Gang Qi LV3 (765/1100)

Basic swordsmanship LV4 (1056/1100)

Five Elements Breathing Method LV1 (62/1600)

Passive Skill: Iron Body LV5 (280/2000)

【Cure point: 0】

[Divine Matter: 916]

"Huh?!" Shen Bailian was stunned when he saw the dazzling text in the last column of the panel, and was filled with excitement and joy: "The divine matter has actually reached 916 points!"

This is absolutely outrageous.

Before the battle with the divinely favored Melbourne, Shen Bailian's divine matter on his panel was only a little over 300 points. However, after a great battle and two days and two nights of cultivation, his divine matter increased by so much.

It reached an astonishing 916 points.

Furthermore, this treasure land is guarded by a mid-stage Sea Opening Realm martial artist, making it absolutely safe and allowing one to continue absorbing divine matter with peace of mind.

Although the rate at which Shen Bailian acquires divine matter has slowed down, at this rate, he can still obtain no less than thirty points of divine matter.

Furthermore, the skills [Swift Wind] and [Basic Sword Technique] are almost ready to be upgraded.

Unbeknownst to many, the peak of the Transcendent Realm, which many martial arts students could hardly reach before graduation, was reached by a first-year martial arts student who stepped into the threshold of the peak of the Transcendent Realm with both feet.

Only 0.9 levels remain to reach the Sea Opening Realm.

"What would take an ordinary person several months to surpass level 0.9 might only take me less than a month." Shen Bailian looked at the [Gale] skill and [Basic Sword Technique] skill on the panel, and he felt his heart trembling.
