No matter how fierce the fist was, not only did it have no effect, it even caused the Herculean Ape to feel pain all over its body.
"Ahhhh!"
The Herculean Ape was about to die from anger. It swore that after that human came out, it would capture him alive and force him to tell it how to enter this building.
It guessed right.
Ling Xiao had broken through.
He had broken through from the peak of the fourth level of the Martial Vein to the fifth level of the Martial Vein. Moreover, because his aura was already saturated, this breakthrough had directly reached the late stage of the fifth level of the Martial Vein, close to the peak.
His aura did not increase much, and was still around the peak of the sixth level of the Martial Vein.
However, the quality of his aura had clearly increased, which caused his attack power to rise to the level of an early stage sixth level Martial Vein martial artist.
His defense had also risen to the level of an early stage sixth level Martial Vein martial artist.
All of this was naturally told to him by the Mountain and River Martial Spirit's analysis ability. After all, he himself was a mortal with the naked eye, so it was impossible for him to see it so clearly.
To be honest, even he himself was shocked by the scene of his breakthrough. It actually made an earth-shattering sound.
Fortunately, there were no accidents.
However, he had just broken through and was not stable enough in all aspects, so he did not stop and began to consolidate his cultivation.
It was not easy for him to break through to the late stage of the fifth level of the Martial Vein. He had to stabilize his strength. If he was not stable, once he was injured, his cultivation would most likely drop greatly.
After a long time, the night ushered in the day.
Ling Xiao opened his eyes, which were bright and full of spirit.
If someone looked carefully, they would discover that there seemed to be a world in Ling Xiao's pupils.
At this moment, his cultivation had completely stabilized at the late stage of the fifth level of the Martial Vein.
In terms of combat strength, he was no longer inferior to an early stage sixth level Martial Vein martial artist. His endurance was even better.
If he were to meet the three people who tried to kill him, he would be able to kill them all in an instant without any effort.
In these two short days, his strength had increased by a terrifying amount.
After advancing to the fifth level of the Martial Vein, the Mountain and River Martial Spirit gave him a new ability —
Martial Spirit Avatar.
This ability could use aura to condense an avatar without self-consciousness. The avatar had 30% of the original body's strength.
Of course, this was not important.
The important thing was that after this avatar merged with the Mountain and River Martial Spirit's analysis ability, it could perfectly imitate any martial arts that Ling Xiao had seen before.
This way, it would be easier to find a sparring partner in the future.
This was the most important function of this clone. As for the battle, it only had 50% of his strength. Basically, it would not be of much use.
In the current situation, he would probably only be able to display the strength of a martial artist at the early stage of the third level of the Martial Vein.
They weren't of much use in battle, but they could be used as scapegoats at critical moments.
That was because the clone's aura was exactly the same as his. Furthermore, it could reform after being destroyed. There was no need to worry about it being destroyed.
This could be considered as one more life-saving method.
"I've already been here for nearly three days. The finals are about to begin. I have to think of a way to get out."
Although he really wanted to persist in cultivating here, the grand finals meant a lot to him.
Besides, he had the Mountain River World. He could move the Frigid Pool Golden Liquid and the Snow Lotus into the Mountain River World. He could still cultivate when he returned.
Therefore, there was no time to waste.
However, when Ling Xiao reached the exit, his brows furrowed tightly.
"Damned Herculean Ape, I've already waited for so long, but it still refuses to be powerful. Do I really want to wait until I die of old age?"
Although he felt very uncomfortable in his heart, Ling Xiao had no other choice.
Even if his strength had increased greatly now, it was basically impossible for him to escape from the hands of the Herculean Ape.
Helpless, he might as well go back and continue cultivating.
Perhaps he could take advantage of this opportunity to raise his cultivation to the peak of the fifth level of the Martial Vein and raise the Nine Transformation Golden Body Technique to the sixth transformation.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and went back to cultivate again.
He jumped back into the Frigid Pool Golden Liquid.
Ling Xiao still followed the previous steps to cultivate the Snow Lotus Qi Art and the Nine Transformation Golden Body Technique at the same time.
The former was more difficult to raise after the fifth level.
The latter was also more difficult to raise after the fifth transformation.
Fortunately, he had the Frigid Pool Golden Liquid. Otherwise, who knew when he would be able to raise it.
The golden liquid and cold air entered his body at the same time, and then were absorbed by the two top-notch martial arts at the same time, constantly transforming Ling Xiao's body.
In addition, there was a faint aura that entered Ling Xiao's soul, constantly strengthening his soul.
He could feel that the strength of his soul was more than twice that of an ordinary person.
The direct benefit of a strong soul was an increase in comprehension, courage, and willpower.
Of course, if there was a soul-type secret technique to cultivate, it would be even better.
Because then, soul force could be used as an attack.
Two hours!
Four hours!
Six hours!
… ….
As the Mountain River Martial Spirit sped up, Ling Xiao's cultivation speed also increased. Every cell in his body was crying out in joy.
Legend had it that in ancient times, there was a supreme being who had studied the human body and found that there were a hundred trillion cells in the human body of this world.
Every second, there were more than a hundred million cells that died and were reborn.
And the end of cultivation was to transform all the cells into energy cells. At that level, as long as a single cell survived, the martial artist would not die.
But this kind of research was only a legend, and no one had really verified it.
At this time, Ling Xiao could clearly feel that the cells in his body were undergoing some special changes.
One of the cells gradually turned golden and became indestructible.
The most terrifying thing was that this cell's change directly increased Ling Xiao's physical strength by fifty kilograms.
What kind of concept was this?
Bang!
The second cell turned golden, and his strength increased by fifty kilograms.
The third!
The fourth!
When the fifth cell turned golden, it finally stopped. It seemed that the higher the level, the more energy it required. Ling Xiao had not reached that level yet.
But just five cells turned golden, and Ling Xiao's strength increased by five hundred kilograms. His strength had reached the terrifying level of two thousand kilograms.
Unknowingly, time flew by, and two days passed in a hurry.
And Ling Xiao's Snow Lotus Qi Technique had reached the sixth level. Although his cultivation did not advance further, it could be considered that he had completely stabilized at the late fifth level of the Martial Vein.
What was surprising was that the Nine Transformation Golden Body Technique had actually broken through from the fifth to the sixth transformation.
The fifth transformation was a small success, and the sixth transformation was a new starting point. The improvement obtained was more terrifying than the previous five stages combined.
After all, the first five transformations were only the foundation. It was the small success realm, and it was a passive increase in defense.
Once cultivated to the sixth transformation, the strong body was not only invulnerable, but it could also be used to perform various martial skills.
Turning defense into offense, this was interesting.
To put it bluntly, his Nine Transformation Golden Body Technique was not only a defensive martial art, but also an offensive martial art. It was similar to the Vajra Palm, but it was stronger.
The only shortcoming was the lack of changes, which was still quite far from the Meteor Fist.
But no matter what, Ling Xiao, who had cultivated to the sixth transformation, could not break through his defense when facing a martial artist of the same level.
Unless the opponent was a heavenly genius, had a special weapon, or a special martial art, it was impossible to hurt him.
