"It seems I should also try to break through!"
A hint of excitement flashed across Lin Xi's face.
He had grasped most of the power on the seventh page of the Divine Refinement Manual, but the eighth page was still far out of reach.
Now, he needs a breakthrough to deepen his understanding of the Divine Refinement Chapter and to make his true essence more solid.
The Divine Refinement Chapter has nine levels: Divine Refinement Level 3, Divine Refinement Level 4, and Divine Refinement Level 5.
The third level of Divine Refinement is equivalent to the regular Body Refinement Realm.
The fourth level of Divine Refinement tempers the physical body to its limit, granting it powerful defense capable of withstanding any attack.
Upon reaching the fifth level of Divine Refinement and entering the True Essence Realm, the primordial spirit becomes more refined, possessing overwhelming power.
The sixth level of Divine Refinement is the true late stage of Divine Refinement.
The seventh level of divine refinement represents a qualitative leap.
The ninth level of Divine Refinement is the pinnacle of Divine Refinement, possessing the strength to contend with the sixth level of Divine Refinement, and even suppressing the opponent!
This is the power of the Divine Refinement Realm.
The seventh level of Divine Refinement corresponds to the sixth level of Divine Refinement.
Lin Xi has already cultivated to the sixth level of Divine Refinement. To break through to the seventh level of Divine Refinement, he must cultivate to the ninth level of Divine Refinement!
This is undoubtedly a formidable challenge!
For ordinary people to reach the ninth level of Soul Refining, they need to cultivate diligently for many years. However, Lin Xi reached the pinnacle in just over ten days.
Such a speed of cultivation is nothing short of miraculous.
Lin Xi knew in his heart that his talent was still inferior to that of his fellow disciples at the third level of Soul Refining, and reaching the seventh level of Soul Refining would be extremely difficult.
However, Lin Xi was not discouraged. He firmly believed that with his unwavering faith and tireless efforts, he would one day reach that level.
"Now that I'm strong enough, I should go hunt some demonic beasts and absorb their essence to enhance myself!"
Lin Xi's eyes sharpened as he took out a talisman from his storage ring and gripped it tightly in his hand.
This is a unique talisman technique used by martial artists in the Soul Refining stage, called the "Imprisonment Talisman".
Once this talisman is activated, unless the opponent has extremely high cultivation, they will not be able to break free from its binding force.
The binding talisman is designed specifically for martial artists in the Soul Refining stage, and can easily immobilize even martial artists at the first level of Soul Refining.
This talisman was obtained from a disciple of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect.
Lin Xi affixed the talisman to his chest, and wisps of energy seeped through his skin into his body, merging with his true qi. Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and Lin Xi was ready to set off.
He removed the binding talisman and sped off into the distance.
During the flight, Lin Xi kept an eye out for prey tracks as he traveled.
Before long, two demonic beasts appeared in front of Lin Xi.
These two demonic beasts were entirely black, emanating a thick black aura, clearly indicating that they had cultivated demonic energy.
"Hiss hiss..."
Upon seeing Lin Xi appear, the demon beast's eyes flashed with greed as it approached him, uttering strange cries.
Lin Xi snorted coldly, and the binding talisman shot out instantly.
The two demonic beasts suddenly trembled and stopped in their tracks, unable to move.
Immediately afterwards, their bodies gradually disappeared, frozen in place by the binding talisman.
Then, the monster roared and tried to break free.
But in Lin Xi's hands, their struggles seemed so futile.
A moment later, the two monster corpses fell to the ground, emitting faint black smoke, which looked extremely eerie.
Lin Xi waved his hand, putting the two monster corpses into his storage ring, and then continued flying swiftly to find more monsters.
Soon, his gaze fell on the entrance of a cave in a mountain range.
There were many monster corpses scattered around the cave entrance, indicating that they had just escaped.
There weren't many of these demonic beasts, about twenty in total, but they were all at the Soul Refining stage.
Among these beasts, none were weak; even the lowest-ranking ones possessed combat power at the early stage of the Spirit Realm, while the strongest had reached the mid-stage of the Spirit Realm.
"A bunch of useless bastards. They can't even handle a beast at the Spirit Core Realm. What good are they?"
A cold light flashed in Lin Xi's eyes, and an unparalleled power erupted from his body. Instantly, the bodies of those beasts collapsed, turning into a mist of blood.
"Phew... It's finally quiet. We're quite far from the area where I encountered the venomous snakes earlier, so there's no need to worry about it chasing us anymore."
Lin Xi took a deep breath, his emotions gradually calming down. He moved swiftly, continuing his search towards the nearby beast territory.
Although he is currently only a martial artist at the third level of the Spirit Realm, his physique has already improved several levels due to his cultivation of the Spirit Realm Chapter. Therefore, his physique is comparable to that of a martial artist at the Void Transformation Realm. Even if he encounters a beast at the fifth level of the Spirit Realm, he will not be afraid.
"Huh?"
Lin Xi's gaze suddenly turned to a certain place.
In that direction, an incomparably powerful aura was rapidly rising, as if it could tear space apart, making people feel suffocated.
Lin Xi frowned slightly, then a smile appeared on his lips: "It seems to be another powerful beast. But we're lucky this time, having encountered such a formidable foe. I wonder if we can defeat it."
This beast is a giant creature that has just entered the Void Transformation Realm. It is named "Golden Mane Lion King" and its strength is equivalent to that of a martial artist at the second level of the Spirit Realm.
The Golden Mane Lion King was enormous, standing fifteen meters tall, its entire body radiating golden light, as imposing as a small mountain. At this moment, its face was ferocious as it stared at Lin Xi, its lion eyes flashing with bloodlust.
It was as strong as an ox, ten meters tall, its body covered in golden scales, and it looked majestic. The golden-maned lion king exhaled hot breath from its nostrils, exuding an overbearing aura.
"Hehehe, little guy, I didn't expect you to walk right into my trap. It seems you're destined to die in my lion's mouth today!"
The Golden-Maned Lion King grinned coldly, his chilling words sending shivers down one's spine.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi couldn't help but purse her lips.
Do you think I'm afraid of you?
Lin Xi responded with a cold laugh.
"Not afraid? If you're not afraid, get out of here now, or you'll suffer a terrible death."
The Golden-Maned Lion King grinned menacingly.
"Then give it a try!"
Lin Xi said dismissively.
The Golden Mane Lion King roared and charged towards Lin Xi.
boom!
The Golden Mane Lion King slammed down with a palm, its fury immense and its energy surging.
Lin Xi dodged the attack, then swung his longsword, severing the Golden Mane Lion King's claws.
The Golden Mane Lion King cried out in pain and immediately roared in anger. With a tremor, its body transformed into four legs.
Lin Xi's pupils contracted. This golden-haired lion king had indeed undergone a strange change, possessing such abilities.
The golden-haired lion roared repeatedly, lunging at Linxi with all four legs.
Lin Xi moved nimbly and skillfully dodged his attack.
