It had been two days since Zhao Yunshan was slain.
Xu Guang was sitting quietly in the room, feeling the completely different physical body within him.
This was a body completely unlike that of mortals.
If one had to use a taphor.
A mortal body, no matter how strong it is trained to be, is ultimately just a mortal shell; its foundation logic still remains as a carbon-based life form, rely with carbon-based flesh and blood of infinitely high muscle density.
But the Alien Body...
For Xu Guang, the composition of his flesh had entirely moved beyond any material naturally existing in a broad sense.
The Fourth Grade cultivation is about the complete developnt of the Alien Body.
Breaking through the Fourth Grade, the body becos entirely different, bringing nurous unimaginable divine techniques, but for oneself, the understanding and developnt of the Alien Body is just at the beginning.
The Fourth Grade is the process of continually exploring the Alien Body and divine techniques.
Xu Guang had pushed open the first gate, but he felt that the developnt of his Alien Body had not even reached one-tenth.
He did not know how much developnt level of the Alien Body would be required to push open the Five Emperors Celestial Gate ahead.
However, one thing Xu Guang found comforting was that the cultivation of the Fourth Grade was no longer heavily reliant on enlightennt like the Fifth Grade; he only needed to proceed systematically, absorb resources to steadily enhance his Alien Body developnt level.
The only thing that couldn’t be solved by systematic enhancent is the opening of the Five Emperors Celestial Gate.
’Cultivation has once again stepped onto the fast track.’
Xu Guang was happy in his heart.
...
Outside the Martial Arts Academy.
Two female disciples saw a group of people hurriedly approaching, clasped their fists in respect and said.
"Greetings, Miss Ji!"
Ji Yanran, with a trace of anxiety in her eyes, opened her mouth to ask.
"Is Mr. Xu here?"
"Yes, let notify him for you."
The grove behind the Martial Arts Academy was a forbidden area for the entire academy; no one had ever ventured in, nor did anyone know what was inside.
Ji Yanran was already familiar with Xu Guang and thus was naturally clear about this.
Just as she was planning to wait, a voice from inside called out.
"Co in."
Ji Yanran was taken aback, it was Xu Guang’s voice.
He was letting her... into the grove?
She was sowhat surprised.
But soon, she composed herself and, led by a disciple of the Red Fla Sect, walked into the grove.
A gush of infinitely fresh air flooded her nostrils instantly, a force nurtured by Feng Shui over the years, living in such a place, one could prolong life.
This kind of environnt was not unfamiliar to her; it was set up by a highly skilled Feng Shui Dao master, combining the surrounding Feng Shui.
Presumably, Mr. Xu did not allow people inside because he did not want this place to be damaged.
Without a guiding disciple, it was her first ti entering here, so she could only follow the lone path ahead.
The ground was marked everywhere with deep footprints, as if left by so giant creature, so turning into small puddles due to rain.
Song Ruyun frowned, with a bit of seriousness.
"Senior Sister, sothing seems off..."
Ji Yanran did not speak, but indeed felt so unease in her heart.
She was increasingly curious about Mr. Xu.
Who exactly is this person in the Jianghu?
"You wait for at the entrance."
It was evident that the owner of the grove valued this place highly, she decided to enter alone.
Moreover...
If indeed sothing changed, Song Ruyun outside could assist.
Song Ruyun instantly understood her thoughts and nodded vigorously.
Ji Yanran continued forward, suddenly feeling a faint sense of oppression, which was not aid at her, but equally targeted every creature here.
Very quickly, she saw the source of the pressure; it was a dark-golden creature, with half of its body imrsed in water, making it hard to discern the specifics, but faintly, one could see so dragon-like features on its body.
Dragon Beast?
In the Jianghu, beasts harboring the bloodline of the Flood Dragon are called Dragon Beasts.
Around the golden Dragon Beast, not a single sound could be heard, not even insect chirping.
This was a repelling force faintly emitted by its body, this was... the characteristic of a Fourth Grade Alien Body.
This was... a Fourth Grade Demon Beast!?
This was not Ah Wei breaking through to Fourth Grade,
but a natural transformation occurring during its Giant Spirit Transformation, and the resources it consud were far more than Xu Guang imagined; this was still the case even though it had already used starlight.
But everything was worth it.
In a little over a month, Ah Wei’s true form hadn’t swelled as it grew, still hovering around thirty ters tall.
Yet with the sa body size, it once weighed close to three hundred tons, but now its weight exceeded six thousand tons!
The change in body structure and density was almost akin to the difference between cotton and iron.
If it weren’t for mastering the Myriad Manifestations Divine Techniques, given its current body size, no ground on this land could bear its weight.
Such high density, without testing, one could comprehend the terrifying nature of its flesh.
It could recklessly pass through a mountain with its body.
In so regard, this was indeed the transformation many demon beasts experienced upon entering the Fourth Grade.
But for Ah Wei, this was just the preparatory stage of Giant Spirit Transformation.
Ji Yanran, looking at the various peculiar plants around Ah Wei’s body, felt as if her eyes were opened to a new world.
Grasses resembling dragons, giant trees like stars, seemingly mountain-like pseudo-mountain plants with life force...
Everything was so miraculous; just the environnt around the Dragon Beast was almost comparable to the outermost dicine Garden of Linghan Mountain’s Guanghan Hall.
Though it was only the outermost part, that was a dicine Garden nurtured for hundreds, even nearly a thousand years by Linghan Mountain.
And how long has this grove existed?
It began construction only after Mr. Xu’s return, and it’s been just half a year to this day.
