This huge change immediately attracted Lu Xuan's attention.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Xuan immediately thought of the mysterious Sword Crystal in his dantian. Apart from it, Lu Xuan could not think of any other reason for such a miraculous change.
Although he was tortured by the intense pain, Lu Xuan still vaguely knew what the Sword Crystal was doing in his body. He knew that the sword energy from the Sword Crystal was constantly attacking his meridians, but he did not expect that all the meridians in his body would be unblocked by it!
It was not that Lu Xuan was slow, it was really too unbelievable. The unblocking of meridians determined a person's talent. How could talent be so easily changed?
In the past, Lu Xuan's talent could not be considered bad, but it was definitely not good either. But now, all the meridians in his body were almost completely unblocked. It could be said that in these two hours, Lu Xuan's talent had instantly soared from ordinary to top-notch!
With such a great thing happening, Lu Xuan was so happy that he almost fainted. Now, he truly understood how great the benefits that the mysterious Sword Crystal had brought to him were.
Compared to this benefit, the healing of Lu Xuan's injuries was simply not worth mentioning.
Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, Lu Xuan calmed his mind and continued to operate the cultivation method, guiding the Yuan Power to continuously flow in his meridians. During the process, the Yuan Power also continuously seeped into his body, transforming his physique. This was the process of refining the body.
Not long after, he successfully completed a full cycle. Usually, due to the blockage in his meridians, he would have to stumble for a long time to complete a full cycle. But now, he was able to easily complete it in a short period of time. This efficiency was at least ten times higher than before. This was the importance of talent!
All of a sudden, cultivation had become so smooth. After a great circulation, Lu Xuan had a slightly unsatisfied feeling, and it was simply like a dream. Before he obtained the Sword Crystal, he had never imagined that there would come a day when he would possess supreme aptitude.
Lu Xuan was already very diligent in his cultivation. Now that his talent had suddenly increased, he naturally would not waste any time and began a new round of cultivation.
After the meridians were unblocked, the improvement was not only the speed of absorbing Yuan Power, but also the efficiency of absorbing Yuan Power. Usually, when he operated the cultivation method, when absorbing the same amount of Yuan Power, Lu Xuan would use at least half of it to unblock his meridians. But now, he did not need to do so at all. All the Yuan Power that he absorbed could be used to refine his body.
He continued to inhale and exhale, completing one cycle after another. He had completely immersed himself in his cultivation, entering an ethereal state, which was rare for him.
The ethereal state, also known as Thoughtless Tranquility, was a cultivation state that could only be encountered by chance. In the ethereal state, the whole person was completely immersed in cultivation, completely entering a state of selflessness. The circulation of the cultivation method completely relied on the body's inertia and operated on its own. Under this inertia, the speed of cultivation was more than several times faster than when a martial artist controlled it by himself!
More importantly, the ethereal state was very helpful in breaking through to the next realm. If one was lucky enough to enter the ethereal state when breaking through to the next realm, it would almost be a matter of time before success.
However, this state was also very dangerous because one's perception of the surroundings had completely disappeared. If there was any danger, one's life would really be hanging by a thread.
Fortunately, there did not seem to be any wild beasts here. In the ethereal state, Lu Xuan was not disturbed at all.
Lu Xuan's ethereal state was maintained for several hours. This cultivation session lasted from night until the morning of the next day.
When he emerged from the ethereal state, he felt that his spirit, essence, and spirit had reached a level of fullness that he had never felt before. He stood up and stretched his body, and the bones all over his body immediately made a series of crisp crackling sounds.
Feeling the abundant energy in his body, Lu Xuan could not help but fiercely throw a punch at a large tree behind him.
His fist landed solidly on the tree, and a muffled sound was heard. The tree shook violently, and when Lu Xuan withdrew his fist, a fist mark about half an inch deep was clearly imprinted on the trunk of the tree.
Seeing this fist mark, Lu Xuan's face immediately lit up with joy. Yesterday, he could only leave a fist mark about a third of an inch deep on the tree. Today, he had impressively reached half an inch!
It seemed that overnight, he had broken through the 2nd Layer of Body Refinement and entered the 3rd Layer of Body Refinement!
The Body Refinement stage was divided into ten layers, but in reality, there were not many changes between each layer. The usual way to measure the Body Refinement stage was to look at a martial artist's strength.
The standard for the 1st Layer of Body Refinement was to have a punch strength of 200 jin. The 2nd Layer of Body Refinement required a punch strength of 500 jin. As for the 3rd Layer of Body Refinement, it required a punch strength of 900 jin. The increase in strength from one layer to the next was much higher than the previous.
Even though he did not use the Strength Measuring Monument to test his strength, to be able to leave a fist mark half an inch deep on the tree, Lu Xuan could feel that his current strength had definitely broken through the 900 jin mark!
Before this, his strength was only around 700 jin. In the 2nd Layer of Body Refinement, it could barely be considered average. But now, he had advanced by one layer in one night. This kind of speed was simply unheard of!
This was naturally due to Lu Xuan's top-notch aptitude, as well as the fact that he had accidentally entered the ethereal state.
Suddenly advancing to the 3rd Layer of Body Refinement, in addition to the increase in his aptitude, Lu Xuan was extremely excited. If it was said that he had a trace of apprehension towards becoming an outer sect disciple of the Wind Sword School before, then that trace of apprehension had now completely disappeared.
Even though the 3rd Layer of Body Refinement might not be able to catch the eye of the Wind Sword School, but don't forget, the time left for Lu Xuan, was a full 14 days!
He was able to advance from the 2nd Layer of Body Refinement to the 3rd Layer of Body Refinement in one night. Then in the next ten days, even if his speed of advancement was not as monstrous, he had enough confidence to advance to the 4th Layer of Body Refinement.
A 16 year old at the 4th Layer of Body Refinement was definitely worthy of the attention of the Wind Sword School.
After practicing a set of foundational long fists to his heart's content, Lu Xuan felt extremely comfortable. During the process of cultivation, apart from absorbing spirit energy, it was also extremely important to train the body.
And just now, Lu Xuan had already thought it through. Right now, he did not intend to return to Lin City. Longtai and Longyang also had to participate in the Wind Sword School's examination, so they were definitely still in Lin City. Once he returned to Lin City, it was very likely that he would be discovered by the two of them.
Even though he had already advanced to the 3rd Layer of Body Refinement, he was still not a match for the servants at the 4th Layer of Body Refinement by Longyang's side. If he was caught by Longyang again, Lu Xuan did not dare to guarantee that he would still have such good luck.
Even though this wilderness was desolate, it was fortunate that there were no large ferocious beasts that could threaten him. Even training here was not bad. As for food, he could also pick fruits and catch small beasts.
Once he advanced to the 4th Layer of Body Refinement, he would have a certain degree of self-defense. Then, he would no longer have to worry about Longyang and would be able to openly return.
Thinking through this point, Lu Xuan once again sat down cross-legged. He had to seize every moment to increase his strength.
But at this moment, a faintly discernible human voice suddenly passed into Lu Xuan's ears.
In this desolate wilderness, how could there be someone passing by? A trace of vigilance flashed in Lu Xuan's heart, and he did not dare to continue training. He quickly stood up and found a large tree nearby to hide.
As Lu Xuan hid, the person seemed to be getting closer and closer. A burst of voice passed into Lu Xuan's ears. The wilderness in the early morning was very quiet, and Lu Xuan could clearly hear the person's conversation.
