Ninth Grade Refining Force, Eighth Grade Bone Forging, and Seventh-Grade Yijin are the first hurdles of the Martial Dao, collectively known as the Body Tempering Realm. Above the Seventh Grade is another realm, and the Sixth Grade is called the Five Extres Realm.
The Five Extres within the Five Extres Realm also subtly align with Taoism's 'Five Qi Chaoyuan' principle, and refer to the forging of the Five Viscera into Extre Palaces, aning the Five Viscera of the human body are treasures, hence the na Five Extres.
The Five Extres Realm requires cultivation techniques that correspond to the Power of the Five Elents, using power to first refine the five viscera, and then build the Five Elents bridge to connect the visceras, forming an internal cycle among the Five Viscera.
This achieves internal refinent of organs, Postnatal Blood Exchange, and connection with the power of nature.
The five viscera refined by the Power of the Five Elents in the Five Extres Realm can communicate with the Power of Heaven and Earth to so extent, and after ascending, not only the power and qi blood beco rich and contain the Power of the Five Elents, but one can also speed up the recovery of power and qi blood through Breathing Techniques in communion with the Power of Heaven and Earth.
For this reason, a Sixth Grade Five Extres Realm Martial Artist far surpasses a Seventh-Grade Martial Artist in both destructive power and sustained combat ability; the two are incomparable.
And one of the most prominent features of the Five Extres Realm is the initial mastery of power with Five Elents attributes, such as the Fiery Fire Force displayed by the Red-armored Strongman, Xie Li.
For a mont, the anger in Li Jiang's heart was reduced by seventy percent, turning into seventy percent fear. When sparring with his master, his master still went easy on him.
Now, when facing a Five Extres Realm Martial Artist above the Seventh Grade, and one full of killing intent, how could Li Jiang be unafraid.
Although to outsiders, Li Jiang's saber strike still seed fiercely aggressive, in the eyes of Su Mu and Xie Li, this saber had lost its edge, not to ntion Xie Li was protected by armor, rendering the attack powerless.
Clang!
The heavy saber clashed with the Red Armor with a dull ring of tallic collision, and Xie Li allowed the saber to slash at his chest, his whole body rely shook slightly, and he didn't retreat a step.
"Weak and powerless, the sabers of Hongn Martial Arts Hall are just so!"
The Red-armored Strongman's body was even burlier than Li Jiang by three parts, his gaze slightly looking down on Li Jiang, a hint of disappointnt flashing deep in his eyes.
The mont after he spoke, ice-coldness abruptly erged in his tone's trailing sound, and the Red-armored Strongman suddenly punched out, the punch at close range caused a series of explosive sounds to erupt in the sky, the surrounding air sharply twisted.
This punch entered Li Jiang's eyes, causing his pupils to contract abruptly. This punch seed like a sweeping fire coming at him, the terrifying power and qi blood surging within it were daunting, he knew he probably couldn't withstand this punch!
Shangguan Qing noticed the alarm on Li Jiang's face, her pretty face changing dramatically, she imdiately drew her saber to et it without caring about anything else.
Su Mu witnessed all this with his own eyes.
Speaking rationally, it would be wiser for Shangguan Qing to retreat at this mont, but seeing Li Jiang in impending danger, she rushed forward regardless, truly foolish.
"But living a life… you always have to make a few dumb moves, it's more freeing without that much calculation."
The actions of Shangguan Qing and Li Jiang made Su Mu regard them with a higher opinion, knowing he must take action as well. After four tis of Bone Forging to achieve Jade Bone, Su Mu's strength had improved greatly.
But exactly how much it had improved, even Su Mu himself wasn't sure. A few days ago, Su Mu could casually take Li Yuanshan's heavy saber, with Li Yuanshan being the second instructor of Hongn Martial Arts Hall, as for an ordinary Seventh-Grade Martial Artist with triple Yijin, they were even less of a match in front of Su Mu.
"These two people's auras are unstable, their aura is more restless when unleashing this fiery-like power. Perhaps their realm is unstable, or they forcedly ascended to Sixth Grade using sothing like a 'Tendon Pill', akin to a fierce drug…"
Su Mu's discerning eyes took in everything in the scene, he leaned towards the latter, otherwise how could his vanquished foe have such a huge strength improvent in just over a year.
For a mont, the blood in Su Mu's body was hot like boiling, and his heart pounding heavily in his chest, to be honest, from the ti he achieved Pill Force with four tis of Refining Force, he hadn't gone all out.
Initially, it was because his bones and tendons couldn't withstand the sustained outburst of Pill Force, after advancing with Yijin, it was because he hadn't encountered a sufficiently strong opponent, Qi Wuxing and the Iron Armor Corpse Puppet put so pressure on Su Mu but it was still far from enough.
"I wonder how the Jade Bone from four tis Refining Force and four tis Bone Forging compares to such a Sixth Grade, which is stronger and which is weaker?!"
It was at this mont that the Red-armored Strongman's punch struck the heavy saber in Li Jiang's hand.
Clang!
The thick, unsharpened heavy saber imdiately dented and bent, conveying a terrorizing power Li Jiang couldn't possibly contend with. Even though he used all his might to hold the saber horizontally with his arms, his arm bones couldn't bear the burden.
"Li Jiang, be careful!"
Shangguan Qing exclaid in alarm.
Crack!
The crisp sound of bones cracking echoed, just as Li Jiang was terrified internally, suddenly a breeze swept through the scene, a hand landed on Li Jiang's shoulder, following that the sound of a great river rushing faintly echoed throughout the scene.
A formidable power surged from behind Li Jiang, instantly covering his entire body. At this mont Li Jiang looked incredulous, this force completely shielded him from the Red-armored Strongman's punch.
"You both step back."
The one who intervened was none other than Su Mu, he had saved Li Jiang with Pill Force, and with one hand he effortlessly lifted Li Jiang and tossed him backward, Li Jiang was taken aback, his voluminous body was imdiately lifted off the ground with one hand.
Shangguan Qing looked shocked as she stepped forward to support the retreating Li Jiang.
"Hmm? What a powerful force, who are you?"
Sensing that soone could neutralize his punch, and that his Fiery Fire Force could not burn through the opponent's force, an expression of surprise and doubt flashed in the Red-armored Strongman's eyes.
