Peng Hai raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Yao with some surprise.
Li Yao clenched his teeth and mustered up his courage to look at Peng Hai.
After a moment, Peng Hai smiled and relaxed his body. He nodded and said, "Good, this little brother of yours is very interesting. I will let you experience what it means to be a high-level Building Foundation Stage cultivator!"
Peng Hai raised his hand and a translucent talisman flew out from his palm and flew above Li Yao's head. With a "bang" sound, the talisman shattered and exploded into specks of light. They danced around Li Yao's body and condensed into a transparent shield.
Li Yao knew that this was a Spiritual Shield. It could prevent him from being injured by the Spiritual Tide.
"I usually suppress my strength to 3%, which is the state of an ordinary martial artist. Therefore, you can't feel the aura of an expert from my body. However, in just 0.001 seconds, I can become like this..."
Peng Hai opened his eyes wide and took a deep breath. His entire body suddenly swelled up and the muscles all over his body swelled up like a balloon. Thick and solid blood vessels were like pythons, entangling and flowing around his body!
A moment ago, he was still a tall and thin ordinary person. In an instant, he had turned into a super muscular man with a height of more than 2.2 meters. Even his skin had turned into a steel-like bronze color, faintly reflecting a terrifying luster.
Peng Hai's voice had become incomparably hoarse and thick.
"Right now, I am using about 7% of my strength. I have stimulated my flesh and blood to the limit. This is the peak state that the human body can reach. In other words, I am a peerless expert among martial artists! If I go one step further, I will have no choice but to activate my spiritual root and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. I will use the spiritual energy to further strengthen myself. This is the so-called 'Refinement'! "
After saying this, his body suddenly shrunk and once again shrunk back to his tall and thin form. However, there was a faint brilliance flowing on his forehead, spreading out invisible ripples one after another. It was like a huge ripple, with the top of his head as the center, spreading in all directions.
From the 36,000 pores all over his body, a faint black fog gushed out and curled around him, forming a layer of ferocious spiritual armor. On the armor, there was a faint bloody light flashing.
"This is 12% of my strength. Next is 13%, 14% …"
Peng Hai smiled as he leisurely increased his strength. The black gas around his body spread out in circles, completely shrouding an area of several dozen meters. A black falcon slowly rose from the black fog, spreading its wings and covering hundreds of meters of the sky.
"This is the peak of the Qi Refining stage that I just blasted out — next is the Foundation Establishment stage!"
Peng Hai's eyes widened as he let out a roar. The black eagle once again turned into a mass of black fog. The black fog then turned into strands of black silk and was sucked back into Peng Hai's body in an instant!
Peng Hai's eyes became incomparably gloomy. They were like an incomparably deep ancient well, or like the sky during a solar eclipse!
His expression became indifferent, cold, and completely devoid of humanity. The ground under his feet cracked, cracked, and cracked, forming a giant spider web of cracks hundreds of meters wide!
Peng Hai's hair grew long in an instant. His feet left the ground as he floated in midair. His long hair fluttered even though there was no wind, appearing incomparably wild. Strands of black gas once again diffused out from his pores, but this time, they became even more condensed, darker, and more terrifying as they bared their fangs and brandished their claws in all directions.
Even though Li Yao was hiding inside the spiritual energy shield, he could still feel an overwhelming and powerful force gushing out from Peng Hai's body in an unending stream. The force crazily bombarded the spiritual energy shield, causing the spiritual energy shield to let out "Bang Bang Bang" sounds!
This kind of earth-shaking power was completely not something that Li Yao could withstand at this moment. He had a feeling that if he didn't have the protection of the spiritual shield, he would be crushed into meat paste by Peng Hai's aura within half a second!
Peng Hai stood in the middle of the void. His eyes had turned completely black, without the slightest white in them.
Around his body, a pure black spiritual energy force field had already taken shape. Countless crushed stones were torn apart from the ground, rising up and revolving around his force field at high speed.
A strange smile appeared on Peng Hai's face. "This is the high level of the Building Foundation Stage. However … this is still not my limit!"
Just as the last word left his mouth, Peng Hai madly roared. His eyes seemed to have turned into two black suns, surging with an incomparably dark radiance.
Li Yao didn't know how to describe what he was seeing. He never knew that "darkness" could actually become so "dazzling"!
"Crackle! Crackle!"
Countless black electric currents appeared around Peng Hai's body and crazily wandered around him, forming a second layer of spiritual energy force field. Peng Hai's jet-black hair had unexpectedly turned dark gold. It was as if his head was filled with golden snakes, each strand standing up!
"Kacha! Kacha! "
Cracks appeared in the void in front of Li Yao. They crisscrossed and rapidly spread.
The spiritual shield was unable to resist Peng Hai's powerful aura and was on the verge of collapse!
"This is a realm even more powerful than the high level of the Building Foundation Stage. This is … this is the peak of the Building Foundation Stage!"
Li Yao looked as if he was intoxicated. He didn't know when, but his fists were tightly clenched. His fingernails had pierced his palms and caused them to bleed. However, he was completely unaware of it. He was completely immersed in the spiritual energy storm created by Peng Hai!
"I also want to become a cultivator like this. I will definitely become a cultivator like this!"
Li Yao roared incomparably crazily in his heart.
Finally —
The spiritual energy storm wreaked havoc for three seconds. Peng Hai withdrew his force field and retracted all his aura back into his body. He returned to his normal 3% state.
"Brother Hai, you've actually cultivated to the peak of the Building Foundation Stage!" Li Yao was extremely excited.
"No, I can only occasionally erupt with the strength of the peak of the Building Foundation Stage. It can't be maintained for more than a few seconds. It can't be considered as reaching the peak of the Building Foundation Stage." Peng Hai shook his head.
"That's still very frightening. The full eruption of a Building Foundation Stage cultivator's battle prowess is truly terrifying!"
Li Yao recalled the scene he had just seen. He felt deeply shocked.
Peng Hai faintly smiled and said, "Although I've erupted to the highest level, I don't have the slightest bit of 'killing intent' in my heart. How can that be considered terrifying? If this was a real battlefield, facing the ferocious Demonic Beasts, my killing intent would explode. Even if we were at the same level, my strength would still increase by three to five times. Coupled with a divine weapon … that would be the true terror! "
"Increase by three to five times?"
Li Yao was flabbergasted. He was completely shocked. He simply couldn't imagine such a scene.
Peng Hai laughed out loud. He patted Li Yao's shoulder and walked towards the transmission array without looking back. "Cultivate well, little brother. The road of cultivation is still long. There will be a day when you will reach the same level as me. At that time, you will know!"
Li Yao stood in a daze for a long time.
Under the changes in the gravitational field, his breathing was sometimes rapid, sometimes heavy, and sometimes slow.
But in the end, he still managed to regulate his breathing.
Looking at Peng Hai's disappearing figure in the transmission array, Li Yao vigorously waved his fist. The corner of his mouth hooked up into a confident smile.
