"Pu!"
The Gang Qi in his dantian swept out and rushed towards the golden-white Gang Qi from Bai Shaokui that had invaded Ling Dong's meridians. A soft muffled sound suddenly came from Ling Dong's body!
When he heard this sound, Ling Dong's expression instantly became extremely strange!
"How could this be?"
The moment this soft muffled sound came out, Ling Dong suddenly felt his entire body relax, as if some barrier in his body had been broken. It was incomparably comfortable. The three Evil Cores that were madly fighting back in his body almost simultaneously flashed with brilliance, and their colors became even brighter!
The cyan Infernal Core was verdant, while the golden Infernal Core emitted a sharp infernal energy. As for the red Infernal Core, at first glance, it was like a burning red ball, incomparably bright and fiery red!
Because it was in the midst of an intense battle, the Gang Qi from all directions was drawn towards Ling Dong under the influence of the Qi. However, the magnitude of this was much smaller.
After all, he had only broken through from the peak of the fourth grade to the fifth grade of the Earth Fiend Realm. It was only under the influence of the Qi in battle that he was able to absorb the Gang Qi from the surroundings for his own use. If it was a normal breakthrough, such a phenomenon would simply not appear.
Yes, Bai Shaokui's punch just now had actually broken through the cultivation bottleneck that troubled Ling Dong, allowing Ling Dong's cultivation to rise to the fifth grade of the Earth Fiend Realm in one go.
However, Ling Dong was also clear that his breakthrough today was not entirely due to Bai Shaokui's punch with the tiger shadow. As the saying goes, three feet of ice was not formed in a day. The reason why Ling Dong was able to coincidentally break through to the fifth grade of the Earth Fiend Realm today was entirely due to this life and death battle with Bai Shaokui!
With Bai Shaokui, this guy who could suppress Ling Dong, in the midst of danger, Ling Dong was able to digest the Gang Qi cultivation that he had rapidly obtained in the past few days in an extremely short period of time. This was why Ling Dong was able to seize the opportunity to break through. As for Bai Shaokui's powerful tiger shadow punch, it was just a kick to the door!
Ling Dong's face revealed a strange expression, but the expressions of the spectators were not strange! It could be said to be extraordinarily brilliant!
The few Heavenly Dipper Realm martial artists on the side of the Chief's Pavilion were also very surprised by Ling Dong's breakthrough in the middle of the battle. However, what was even more surprising was that Ling Dong was actually able to withstand their Young Kui's attack and even launch a counterattack. He had even attacked their Young Kui until he was battered and exhausted!
The reason was simple. It was normal for a martial artist to make a breakthrough in battle. Many martial artists would go out adventuring after encountering a bottleneck in their cultivation, searching for an opportunity to break through in the midst of life and death!
However, the expressions of Qiu Qingyi, Tu Bai, and Princess Xuanji on Ling Dong's side were different.
Each and every one of them was shocked as if they had seen a ghost. The two beauties' expressions were still quite reserved. Even though they were so shocked by Ling Dong's sudden breakthrough that their jaws almost fell to the ground, they still didn't forget to cover their mouths with their hands. A beauty's mouth that was too big was also an eyesore. Of course, this was except when they were doing something particularly beautiful!
As for Tu Bai, her mouth was so wide open that a watermelon could be stuffed in. She even muttered, "F * ck, is Brother Ling still human?"
Qiu Qingyi and the rest couldn't be blamed for their shocked reactions. It was because Ling Dong's breakthrough speed was too fast. In just two days, his cultivation had two consecutive breakthroughs in the Earth Realm. Even the legendary peerless elixir wouldn't be able to achieve this speed.
While the three of them were petrified, there was another person who was also extremely shocked. This person was Kui Xing Pavilion's Young Kui, Bai Lianxing. Bai Shaokui was also the only one present who could clearly sense Ling Dong's true cultivation!
Bai Lianxing didn't know that Ling Dong had two consecutive breakthroughs in two days. However, when Bai Shaokui, Bai Lianxing, and Ling Dong met in the Kui Xing Pavilion's Earth Pavilion previously, Bai Shaokui clearly remembered that Ling Dong's cultivation had just broken through to the second stage of the Earth Realm.
However, it had only been four months since they parted. Bai Shaokui believed that his memory wasn't bad. However, the cultivation of the person in front of him, who had just broken through to the second stage of the Earth Realm four months ago, suddenly shot up to the fifth stage of the Earth Realm.
This was the cultivation of the Earth Realm, not the Houtian Realm or the Xiantian Realm.
Even for the Xiantian Realm, it was already a shocking speed to increase by three levels in four months. Moreover, it was from the second stage of the Earth Realm to the fifth stage of the Earth Realm in four months.
Bai Shaokui estimated that even if the Kui Xing Pavilion's resources were used on Bai Lianxing regardless of whether it was reasonable or not, with his aptitude and the top-notch cultivation technique of the Bai Clan, which was the leader of the five clans in the Kui Xing Pavilion, it was already extremely fortunate for him to be able to break through from the second stage of the Earth Realm to the third stage of the Earth Realm in four months.
As for the fourth stage of the Earth Realm, it was impossible for him to even think about it. As for the fifth stage of the Earth Realm, it was even more impossible!
However, such an impossible thing had strangely happened to this guy in front of him, the successor of the Butcher, Ling Dong.
It was also because of this surprise that after Bai Shaokui's punch and Ling Dong's breakthrough, there was no follow-up. He stood there in a daze. Of course, this daze only lasted for a breath's time.
However, this momentary daze gave Ling Dong a chance, a chance for Ling Dong to vent!
Why was it called venting?
When the Gang Qi from the three Evil Cores in one's body rushed towards the meridians in one's right arm, one would know why one needed to vent.
Ling Dong's right arm's meridians had already been damaged by Bai Shaokui's golden-white Gang Qi. It was simply unable to withstand the Gang Qi from the three Evil Cores. Therefore, when he felt that his meridians could no longer withstand it, Ling Dong did not hesitate to punch out!
It was better to release than to block!
Since he was unable to withstand it, he would endure the pain and release it!
"Boom!"
In a hurry, Bai Shaokui also punched out to meet Ling Dong's punch. It was a straightforward punch without any fancy moves.
In the next breath, the strange tri-colored Gang Qi in Ling Dong's body surged out and directly sent Bai Shaokui, who was hastily defending, flying with a punch. After several somersaults in the air to neutralize the huge force, Bai Shaokui's right arm hung limply. Only then did Bai Shaokui land unsteadily on the ground.
His eyes were filled with astonishment. There was finally a slight change in the way he looked at Ling Dong. At this moment, Bai Shaokui felt that Ling Dong really had the strength to threaten him.
Other things aside, the strange force of the punch had actually caused his right arm's meridians to suffer serious damage, causing him to lose consciousness temporarily. At this moment, Bai Shaokui was still struggling to dissolve the strange Gang Qi that had invaded his meridians. This was something that even some powerful Middle Stage Heaven Dipper Realm martial artists could not do, let alone Ling Dong, who was only a Grade 5 Earth Fiend.
Bai Shaokui was shaken by the punch. Even the few Heaven Dipper Realm martial artists from the Kuixing Pavilion were shocked. At the same time, they also had a whole new level of respect for Ling Dong. Being able to injure their Shaokui meant that he was qualified to earn their respect.
Even Fei Lingke, who had been clamoring about wanting to avenge the deaths of the Fei Family members who had died under Ling Dong's hands, stayed there obediently and did not say anything else.
His strength was there for all to see. Even Shaokui was forced to retreat. What else could he do?
As for the few people on Ling Dong's side, they were already numb from the shock that Ling Dong had brought to them! In their eyes, Ling Dong had become an out-and-out monster.
Seeing that Bai Shaokui was sent flying by his punch, Ling Dong was also puzzled. However, Ling Dong pondered for a moment and understood the reason behind it. The punch that he released earlier was almost all of his strength. It was difficult for Bai Shaokui not to be sent flying.
"You win!" Bai Shaokui said casually when he was trying to dissolve the three strange Earth Qi that had invaded his meridians. This caused the people from the Kuixing Pavilion behind him to have a whole new level of respect for Ling Dong once again.
"Shaokui did not use his full strength. Ling had an unfair advantage. Thank you for letting me win!" Ling Dong cupped his fists and smiled modestly. He also hurriedly kept the Greedy Wolf Black Sword. The Kuixing Pavilion was not his enemy. Since he had used his strength to obtain an equal position in the hearts of the people from the Kuixing Pavilion, the battle was over.
Seeing that Ling Dong was so honest, Bai Lianxing's tense handsome face revealed a rare smile. "Brother Ling also did not use his full strength, right? The successor of the Butcher is indeed not simple! "
"Hahahaha …" Hearing this, Ling Dong and Bai Shaokui looked at each other and laughed. Bai Shaokui and Ling Dong walked towards each other while the crowd was baffled by their laughter.
"Brother Ling, are you planning to collect all the Star Pearls to enter the Connecting Heaven Palace? If so, I will give the Star Pearls of the two cultivators to Brother Ling. It will save Brother Ling the trouble of running around. " Bai Shaokui pointed at the two corpses on the ground. One of them was Yin Baiyue's corpse. Of course, the Star Pearl on it had already fallen into Ling Dong's hands.
Since Ling Dong was able to fight him to a standstill, Bai Shaokui did not want to fight to the death even though they did not use their full strength. It was definitely not a wise move to lose a lot of strength for a few Star Pearls.
"That's right. In that case, thank you, Brother Bai!" Ling Dong accepted the Star Pearl of the cultivator who came with Yin Baiyue without any hesitation. This person also had as many Star Pearls as Yin Baiyue. There were seven of them. It seemed that Yin Baiyue and the others had indeed collected all the Star Pearls and were preparing to enter the Connecting Heaven Palace.
Obtaining fourteen Star Pearls in one go was a great gain for Ling Dong! Especially when his cultivation base had broken through to the fifth grade of the Earth Realm, Ling Dong could absorb the energy in the Star Pearls to increase his cultivation base.
"Brother Ling, since you are planning to enter the Connecting Heaven Palace, I have a piece of advice for you. Before the eleventh day, do not activate the Star Transfer Pillar to enter the Connecting Heaven Palace. Otherwise, you will only be cannon fodder!" Bai Shaokui paused for a moment before continuing, "Consider this my thanks to Brother Ling for sparing the lives of the two disciples of the Kuixing Pavilion."
"Why is that?" Ling Dong asked curiously while feeling surprised.
Bai Shaokui waved his hand and said, "Brother Ling, you only need to know about this. As for the specific reason, it's a long story! Of course, if Brother Ling is confident in facing the five disciples of the Hidden World Star Palace, feel free to activate the Star Transfer Pillar to enter the Connecting Heaven Palace! "
"Oh, could it be that the Hidden World Star Palace had already entered the Connecting Heaven Palace to kill other martial artists? The martial artists of the Hidden World Star Palace are actually so domineering? "Ling Dong raised his eyebrows.
Hearing this, Bai Shaokui frowned and sighed, "Their strength and style are equally domineering. Even the Kuixing Pavilion has to avoid them."
Looking at Bai Shaokui's unwilling expression, Ling Dong suddenly felt that the opportunity for cooperation had arrived.
