Chapter 362 Our Godfather [5k]

The winds at Qianku Mountain remain fierce.

But Xu Feng today is no longer the same as he was before.

With perfect golden skin and jade bones, the Heavenly Roc Sacred Body is in its initial stages, and its physical strength is comparable to that of a divine weapon!

He bypassed the fourth and third caves where he had previously cultivated and arrived at the entrance of the second cave!

The gale-force winds in the second cave had turned a dark purple, almost black color!

Within the wind blades lies not only the incomparably sharp "golden evil".

It was also mixed with strands of "Mysterious Yin Wind Evil" that were as thin as hair but chilling to the bone.

And occasionally, there's the "Shadow Spirit Thunder Fiend," which has a paralyzing and corrosive effect!

The intertwining of destructive energies of various attributes makes the gales here extremely strange and dangerous.

The strong wind pressure gave the rocks near the cave entrance a smooth, polished texture.

Even more terrifying is the piercing howl that penetrates the soul, as if millions of wronged souls are screaming in your ears, enough to cause the mentally weak to collapse!

Xu Feng stood at the cave entrance and took a deep breath.

Within the sea of ​​consciousness, the nine levels of spiritual power, as vast as the ocean, flowed slowly, constructing a solid dam.

The sacred tree sways; the wine drips with silvery light, protecting the divine soul.

The inner workings of the Heavenly Roc Dragon-Slaying Technique surged within his body, and pale golden qi and blood formed a dense protective network beneath his skin.

"This is it."

His eyes were resolute as he stepped inside!

boom-!!!

It felt like crashing into a devastating ocean!

Dark purple wind blades surged in from all directions like a tidal wave, frantically cutting, impacting, and eroding his body!

The Golden Fiend tried to tear through the flesh, the Profound Yin Ice Fiend wanted to freeze the blood and qi, and the Yin Soul Thunder Fiend relentlessly drilled into the sea of ​​consciousness!

pain!

Unimaginable pain instantly swept over my entire body!

The pale golden lines on the skin's surface lit up wildly, fiercely battling against the gale, emitting a dense "hissing" sound like rain pattering on banana leaves.

Under high pressure, the Qi and blood circulate at high speed, forcibly refining or expelling foreign energies that have invaded the body.

The divine tree in the sea of ​​consciousness shone brightly with silver light, blocking the evil spirits and lightning demons that tried to enter.

It can even absorb and transform it into nutrients that nourish the soul.

"The second hole — it really is terrifying."

Xu Feng took a deep breath, his eyes burning with fierce fighting spirit.

That's exactly the kind of extreme pressure he wants!

Only here can his divine fire, which has reached the "sea-like" state, be truly "polished" and its impurities removed.

They are moving towards the legendary state of "divine fire reaching perfection, and the spiritual platform spontaneously arising."

His mental power had already reached the high level of level 9, "Like the Sea," vast and boundless.

However, to break through to the Star God Realm, one still needs to further purify and condense this vast spiritual power.

Ignite an even more vigorous and purer "divine fire" until perfection is achieved.

The various negative spiritual impacts and soul erosions contained in the gale are precisely the best external forces for tempering the spirit and refining the divine fire!

"With the wind as my anvil and the fierce wind as my hammer, I forge my spirit and soul, igniting my divine altar!"

Xu Feng silently recited the incantation, actively guiding a wisp of Yin Soul Thunder from the gale, carefully leading it to the edge of his sea of ​​consciousness.

hiss-

Like a red-hot iron being plunged into ice water!

A sharp pain shot through the depths of my soul!

However, Xu Feng's soul remained as stable as a rock under the protection of the divine tree. Instead, he used the stinging pain to compress and purify his spiritual power!

In the center of his mind's sea, the vast and magnificent silver divine tree, which was already as boundless as a real ocean, began to tremble slowly.

Time slipped away amidst extreme pain and slow progress.

One day, two days —

Xu Feng, like a rock rooted at the entrance of the second cave, endures the relentless erosion of destruction.

His skin was cut time and time again, but it healed each time thanks to the powerful self-healing ability of his golden skin and jade bones, becoming increasingly tough.

Qi and blood are consumed and replenished repeatedly, but the total amount is limited by the cultivation level and cannot increase.

However, operational efficiency, recovery speed, and resistance to foreign energy are all steadily improving.

The most significant change is in the sea of ​​consciousness.

The vast silver ocean of spirit seemed to have shrunk slightly in size.

But the density and purity have been improved by more than one level!

The light emanating from the central divine tree grew increasingly solid and intense, exuding a harmonious, full, and seemingly infinitely possible aura.

On the evening of the fifth day after Xu Feng withdrew from his ascetic practice at Thousand Caves Mountain.

Inside the secret chamber, the Mountain and River Cauldron once again emitted a clear and melodious sound.

The furnace lid was opened, and a precious light emanated from it.

This time, there was no unusual fragrance.

All the medicinal power is perfectly locked within the pill. Only by getting close to the pill furnace can one feel a heavy, profound, and seemingly overwhelming medicinal power contained within.

At the bottom of the cauldron, ten pills lay quietly.

It is not round, but rather a slightly irregular polyhedron, with a dark gold color throughout.

It appears to be compressed from countless fine golden crystals, with thick patterns resembling mountains and rivers flowing across its surface.

"Hundred-Refined Golden Body Pill, ten pills completed, quality: medium grade."

Xiao Huang's voice was still monotonous, but if you listened carefully, there seemed to be an extremely faint hint of dissatisfaction.

"Efficacy assessment: Equivalent to 3 times that of standard Hundred-Refined Golden Body Pill."

It has an additional nourishing effect on the internal organs and bone marrow. It is recommended to take it in divided doses, and the effect will be better when combined with body-strengthening exercises.

3 times!

Xu Feng took one of the dark gold pills; it felt heavy in his hand, as if he were holding a solid piece of metal.

He could clearly feel the powerful energy contained within the elixir, as strong as the pulse of the earth.

This is several levels higher in quality than the Hundred-Refined Golden Body Pills he obtained from the ruins and from Qingxuan!

"Are there any risks associated with taking it?" Xu Feng asked in a deep voice.

In the past few days, Xiao Huang has learned a lot about the cultivation system for human warriors provided by Xu Feng: "Ordinary War Gods need to temper their physical bodies in extreme environments, otherwise they cannot withstand the effects of the medicine."

There is no risk for high-level War Gods and above to take it.

Xu Feng nodded in satisfaction.

With this enhanced version of the Hundred Refinements Golden Body Pill, Lu Fei and Lao Li's strength can advance even faster.

Now that his sacred body is complete, he no longer needs this elixir.

These pills were obtained entirely by exploiting the resources of Little Green Sky Mountain.

If you don't practice, you'll be wasting your time.

Carefully putting away the elixir, Xu Feng once again returned to the second cave of Thousand Caves Mountain through the Relics Passage.

He wanted to press on with all his might, using the strong winds and the condensing elixir to completely refine the "divine fire" to perfection.

Inside the dark purple Gale Cave, Xu Feng sat cross-legged.

He first took out a Qi Condensation Pill and swallowed it.

boom!

Once the pill entered the stomach, a powerful and pure medicinal force, as vast as the dragon veins of the earth, erupted forth.

Various insights into secret techniques kept emerging.

At the same time, he deliberately relaxed part of his mental defenses, allowing more fierce winds and evil energy to surge into his sea of ​​consciousness!

Attack from both inside and outside!

The body endured the relentless torment of the fierce winds.

The soul endures the erosion and tempering of the malevolent energy and the scorching heat of the divine fire.

This is the most extreme, most painful, and also most effective method of cultivation!

If it weren't for Xu Feng's iron will, solid foundation, and the protection of a wondrous object like the Divine Tree, he would have been in a different situation.

Anyone else would have already suffered physical collapse and spiritual dissipation.

Time passed second by second.

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, the silver divine tree, under the repeated "forging" of the fierce winds and evil energy, shone with an increasingly pure and refined light.

The leaves at the edge of the sacred tree began to wither.

But on the branches, several tiny fruits grew, like golden flames, dazzling and eye-catching.

At the same time, the enormous branches spread out, almost covering most of the inner world.

Fire is the sea of ​​trees, and the sea of ​​trees is fire!

This is a sign that the divine fire is about to reach "perfection".

I don't know how much time passed.

Maybe three days, maybe five days.

Deep inside the second cave of Qianku Mountain.

Xu Feng, who was sitting cross-legged in the destructive gale, suddenly opened his eyes!

The golden light in his eyes was no longer just a simple glint.

His left eye was like the rising sun, blazing and dazzling, while his right eye was like the moonlight, clear and deep.

Deep within the pupils, a single, pure golden flame, seemingly capable of illuminating the essence of all things, was burning quietly.

The flame may have seemed weak, but it contained an unimaginable and immense spiritual power!

Its shape is just like a fruit the size of a fingernail.

Although it is not yet mature, it has already begun to swell.

at the same time.

A pale golden force field, about thirty feet in diameter, formed around him, almost tangible!

Within the force field, tiny storms were faintly appearing and disappearing, illusory mountains and rivers were rising and falling, stars were turning, and the bright moon was floating in the sky.

Suddenly, a magnificent golden roc phantom spread its wings that drooped over the clouds and let out a silent yet soul-stirring cry!

Divine Fire—Nine levels like the sea, perfectly flawless!

Xu Feng slowly stood up.

The pale golden force field around him then subsided and disappeared into his body.

He didn't look much different from before, but his demeanor had subtly changed.

It has lost some of the deliberate pretense of arrogance and flamboyance, and gained more of a simple and unfathomable composure.

With every gesture, he seemed to resonate with the surrounding world in an indescribable harmony.

"The divine fire is complete, and the sacred body is initially formed."

'

Xu Feng felt the surging power within his body and the flawless divine fire tree in his sea of ​​consciousness, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

Although the Qi and Blood value is still stuck at the bottleneck of 20 c.

However, the strength of his physical body, the quality and quantity of his mental power, and his control over his power have all been raised to the true limit of the God of War realm!

Now, he only needs to take the final step to condense the true "domain".

Once successful, he can trigger the ultimate transformation of his blood and spirit, breaking through the barrier of the Star God!

"It's time to go back. The Qi Condensation Pill and the Hundred Refinement Golden Body Pill are enough for me to digest for a while."

Once the "Equilibrium" is broken through to a certain level, it may be time to attempt to become a Star God.

He took one last look at the entrance to the first cave, which was even more terrifying, pure black, and seemed to connect to nothingness, deep inside the second cave, and turned away without hesitation.

That place is not yet a place he can set foot in.

But when the Star God realm is within his grasp, he will definitely come again!

Through the relic passage, Xu Feng silently returned to the secret chamber of the Seventh Peak.

Inside the secret chamber, Xiao Huang had finished cleaning the Mountain and River Cauldron and was standing quietly beside the alchemy furnace, his eyes glowing with a steady yellow light.

The broken puppet guard "Little Black" still leaned silently against the corner of the wall.

Everything seemed the same as when I left.

However, Xu Feng keenly sensed that the residual alchemical energy and fluctuations in the secret chamber seemed to be slightly more concentrated than he had anticipated.

He looked at Xiao Huang.

The yellow light in Xiao Huang's eyes remained as steady as ever.

On the jade plate in front of it were three pills.

But these three pills are completely different from the previous Qi Condensation Pill!

They are not perfectly round, but rather exhibit an irregular polyhedral structure, resembling natural crystal minerals.

The color is not pale gold or milky white, but a deep, dark gold.

The surface is covered with fine and mysterious natural patterns, like the patterns of a mountain range.

Even more strangely...

There was no halo around the pill; instead, it subtly distorted the light in the vicinity.

It's as if its own weight is enough to affect the space!

Just looking at him, Xu Feng felt a subtle longing and desire emanating from his already perfectly refined golden body and jade bones—

A flutter in my heart?

"This is... the Hundred-Refined Golden Body Pill?" Xu Feng was somewhat unsure.

Xiao Huang turned his head, his eyes glowing steadily: "To be precise, it's the Hundred-Refined Golden Body Elixir."

Hsu Feng: 6

'

Adding "big" to anything makes it more advanced, right?

"It is made using the optimized method of 'Ling Shu Bai Dan Lu', with a medicinal material utilization rate of 91%, an impurity removal rate of 99.9%, and a fusion and sublimation of medicinal properties."

The body-tempering energy and rule imprint contained in a single pill are approximately twelve times that of a standard "Hundred-Refined Golden Body Pill."

"Because its medicinal power is too overwhelming and concentrated, it has initially triggered the earth" and the fragments of the "Vajra" rules.

"It takes the form of cinnabar crystals," hence it can be called "Great Elixir."

Twelve times the efficacy!

Crystal form!

This triggers fragments of the rules of heaven and earth!

This is an absolutely amazing medicine!

"How much medicinal material does this thing consume?" Xu Feng asked, his breathing slightly quickened as he picked up a dark golden pill crystal.

"The remaining medicinal herbs have all been used up," Xiao Huang said stiffly.

Xu Feng took a deep breath and examined his hand carefully.

This pill felt incredibly heavy in my hand; it was less like a pill and more like a concentrated piece of gold and iron.

It has a warm yet firm feel, and the energy it contains is like that of a dormant volcano.

Calm, yet unsettling.

"Are there any risks associated with taking it?" Xu Feng asked in a deep voice.

"have."

Xiao Huang speaks his mind.

"This elixir is too potent and requires powerful cultivation techniques to guide it. It also demands a very high level of physical strength."

Those with insufficient physical constitution who force themselves to take it risk physical collapse.

It is recommended that the peak master refine it in stages, with each stage lasting no more than twelve hours...

...that is, 24 hours.

It requires the assistance of strong winds or similar extreme environments to disperse the pressure and enhance the medicinal power, which can help break through the limits of the physical body and enter the Star God Realm.

Upon hearing this, Xu Feng was not surprised but rather delighted.

We need a strong medicine!

nice one!!

After putting away the pills, Xu Feng left the secret chamber, made a brief appearance at the mountain gate, and went to Silver Moon Peak for a drink.

The arduous training at Thousand Caves Mountain has come to a temporary end. With the Divine Fire perfected and the Sacred Body initially formed, Xu Feng did not feel relaxed.

The realm of the Star Gods may seem within reach, but in reality, there is still a crucial barrier separating them.

That is, the qualitative change of "momentum" and the cohesion of the field.

This cannot be solved by asceticism alone.

It requires an opportunity, insight, and a deeper understanding of the nature of power.

Simply put, it's a secret method for improving liver function.

After wandering around for a while, Xu Feng claimed to be in seclusion and went through a hidden passage in the Ling Shu ruins.

They used a pre-determined safe spot on the outskirts of Xiaoqingqiong Mountain to quietly escape the territory of the alien forces.

He then transferred to high-speed transport planes through several secret transit stations set up by the Great Xia military.

As night fell, the familiar outline of Base Nine came into view.

Xu Feng didn't disturb too many people when he returned to Base Nine this time.

He only contacted Gu Cheng and Commander Di before returning to the familiar manor in the core area.

The afterglow bathed the training ground in a warm golden light.

Lu Fei was instructing her daughter, Xu Xiaodan, on a new set of footwork.

Kongkong was squatting on the artificial hill, happily gnawing on a huge piece of meat from a mythical beast.

Its body was surrounded by golden light, and its aura had already reached the peak of the initial stage of beast general.

When Xu Feng appeared at the entrance of the manor, both Lu Fei and Xu Xiaodan were startled.

"dad!"

Xu Xiaodan pounced on her like a fawn.

Lu Fei quickly approached, looking Xu Feng up and down, a hint of worry and relief flashing in her eyes: "You're back? You're not hurt, are you?"

"It's alright, I'm perfectly fine."

Xu Feng smiled and ruffled his daughter's hair, then nodded to Lu Fei.

"I'm sorry to have worried you."

His gaze swept across the manor, and he noticed several hidden fluctuations of qi and blood in the shadows of a corner.

This is the base's secret guards increasing their vigilance.

Xu Feng looked at Lu Fei with tender eyes: "I brought some things back with me this time. We'll talk about it when Lao Li and the others arrive."

He didn't go into details, but instead spent a rare family reunion dinner with his wife and daughter.

Xu Xiaodan chattered on about the fun things that happened during training and at school, while Lu Fei gave a brief overview of the recent situation at the base.

After the meal.

Xu Feng summoned Li Tianlang, Yue Linfei, Zhou Xian, Li Suifeng, Luo Feng, Sun Liu, Wang Lin, and others.

They invited Gu Cheng, saying they had important matters to discuss.

Night falls.

The spacious reception room of the manor was brightly lit.

When Li Tianlang and the others arrived one after another, their eyes lit up when they saw Xu Feng sitting in the main seat.

"Old Xu! You're finally back!"

Li Tianlang stepped forward with a loud laugh and patted Xu Feng on the shoulder forcefully.

"I heard you were stirring up trouble over there, even causing the death of the number one peak master of Little Azure Sky Mountain?"

"Just lucky."

Xu Feng smiled and glanced at everyone.

After more than half a year apart, the presence of these old friends seemed much more solid.

Clearly, they did not slack off at all during this period.

Even Huang Sen, who was on leave at the Kunlun front, connected to the holographic projection via encrypted communication, grinning and cursing, "Old Xu, you're so unfair! You didn't even give me a heads-up before you came back. I was still eating dry rations in the mountains!"

Xu Feng smiled apologetically: "I didn't want to alarm too many people, so not announcing it is the most discreet way."

Huang Sen naturally expressed his understanding.

soon.

Gu Cheng also arrived.

Accompanying him was a middle-aged man dressed in simple white clothes, with a profound and dignified demeanor.

His face was ordinary, but his eyes seemed to hold the power of mountains and rivers.

She simply walked in calmly, and naturally became the focus of the entire audience.

He is ranked first on the military's list of war gods.

Qin Shanhe, the Sword of Mountains and Rivers!

"Senior Qin."

Xu Feng and the others stood up and clasped their hands in greeting.

He held this powerful predecessor who had defended the borders for the human race and made outstanding contributions in his heart.

Qin Shanhe's gaze fell on Xu Feng, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, which then turned into admiration: "Your divine brilliance is restrained, and your power is as imposing as a mountain... It seems that your strength has improved again recently."

72

He noticed Xu Feng's change at a glance.

It's not that the aura is particularly vast and magnificent.

Rather, it is a sense of harmony that is perfectly integrated with the surrounding environment, as if it were flawlessly blended in.

And deep within his eyes, there was a faint, almost imperceptible golden flame that made even him feel a slight unease.

This young man has already reached the pinnacle of the God of War realm.

They even touched that barrier!

"You flatter me, senior. I was just lucky to have such an opportunity," Xu Feng said humbly.

"Circumstances are also a part of strength."

Qin Shanhe said calmly, without saying anything more, picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and sat down in the corner.

"You guys chat, I'll talk to you later."

Xu Feng then gestured for everyone to take their seats.

Once everyone was seated, Xu Feng didn't waste time with pleasantries and went straight to the point.

"I came back for two reasons: first, to see everyone; and second—to bring some 'candies' for you brothers to share."

Everyone burst into laughter and urged Xu Feng to take it out and take a look.

With a thought, dozens of jade bottles and boxes appeared out of thin air on the long table in front of Xu Feng.

The jade bottle was crystal clear, and the luster of the elixir flowing inside could be faintly seen.

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to it.

Xu Feng first opened a jade bottle and poured out a pale gold-white pill with nebula patterns on its surface and a natural halo.

The moment the elixir appeared, a rich, gentle, yet invigorating fragrance filled the air, causing one's spirits to subtly surge.

The living room fell silent instantly.

You could hear a pin drop.

Li Tianlang's smile froze on his face, and Yue Linfei's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air.

Zhou Xian, Li Suifeng, and the others stared wide-eyed at the two rows of pills, their breathing becoming heavy involuntarily.

A name involuntarily flashed through everyone's mind.

Godfather!

Our godfather!
