Two days later, Qin Tianhu's body lay quietly in the pit.
As time passed, the young man in white clothes struck a blow above the big pit, and the remaining aura of the glorious sun's will finally dissipated slowly. In an instant, the invisible sense of oppression that permeated the surroundings disappeared.
Without the remaining aura of will from the power of the Seventh Heaven, rustling sounds gradually began to be heard in the woods.
Soon, an ordinary mutant creature with a body length of more than four meters walked out of the woods, looked around vigilantly, and slowly approached the pit after finding no danger.
Looking at the corpse not far away, the mutant creature that looked like a black panther showed a hint of bloodthirsty excitement in its eyes and approached lightly.
However, this mutant creature was very alert. Even though Qin Tianhu's body had no signs of life, it still approached slowly, as if it would run away at the slightest sign of trouble.
As it approached the corpse, smelling the invisible high-energy scent of flesh and blood, the mutant black panther let out an excited growl.
Just like mutant beasts, the bodies of high-level practitioners have been tempered by the energy of heaven and earth over a long period of time, absorbing various resources to transform their physiques, and their flesh and blood also contain high concentrations of energy.
This kind of flesh and blood rich in "nutrients" is very attractive to mutant creatures.
Snap!
The mutated black panther bit Qin Tianhu's broken arm with its hard teeth, tearing through the tough flesh with difficulty. At the same time, it also bit into pieces the smart watch on his wrist that was originally protected by the armor.
roar!
Suddenly, the mutated black panther screamed, black blood flowed from its mouth, and then it fell to the ground and died with a bang.
At the same time, wisps of black poisonous gas spread out from the flesh and blood of Qin Tianhu's bitten arm, and the air made a corrosive sound wherever it passed.
These terrifying black mists are the energy that Kul poured into Qin Tianhu's body when he killed him.
This is the unique skill of the Shadow Cult, which is infused with various highly toxic true energies, which is horrific enough to corrode the true energy, spirit, and body of a sixth-level practitioner.
Just as Qin Tianhu's watch was bitten to pieces, a green stone the size of a soybean in the core of the watch shattered instantly, releasing a strong pulse signal.
The signal was so strong and fleeting that it was quickly captured by a space-based satellite tens of thousands of meters above the sky.
At a Wugao base more than 3,000 kilometers away, the intelligence department suddenly shook, and the staff shouted: "Oh no, Tianhu's smart watch is broken, and the signal indicates that he is dead."
Soon, a leaping figure with true energy and flames shot out from Bailongwu Gao and quickly headed towards the Yunwu Mountains.
At the same time, on the big screens of all the major martial arts high school bases, the name of Qin Tianhu, who was ranked first on the performance list and ninth on the third-grade genius list, slowly disappeared.
As the number one on the battle record list and a talented third-year student at Bailong Martial Arts High School, Qin Tianhu's death caused a great shock in the base.
However, it only caused some vibrations in the Bailong Martial Arts High School base. People from other schools who noticed this were just a little surprised and caused a little unrest.
Then it's time to get busy with what's going on.
Many "geniuses" die in the Yunwu Mountains every year.
When these students chose to step into the Misty Mountains where satellites could not monitor, the magnetic field was chaotic, and there were high-level mutant beasts everywhere, they were prepared to die.
The same goes for the teachers.
Because this is one of the trials itself. The school is not a nanny, and the authorities are not interested in cultivating a bunch of greenhouse flowers.
And if you feel that the Cloudy Mountains are too dangerous, you can choose not to go in, and hunt those level three or four mutant beasts outside or stay in the base to take on conservative missions.
Everything depends on the students' own choice.
However, these geniuses are still students of the school, so every time a student dies, the teacher will help to "avenge" them according to the information sent out at the moment the watch is destroyed.
If those watches were damaged outside the Yunwu Mountains, space-based satellites would be able to accurately locate them instantly and bring the picture closer.
And if it is in the Cloudy Mountains, the space-based satellite can also determine the approximate direction with the pulse signal emitted instantly when the strong radiation rock shatters.
When the time comes, as long as the martial arts teacher rushes to the scene within 30 kilometers of the dead student, he will be able to receive the weak signal band continuously emitted by the watch.
The signal band emitted by this strong radiation stone can last for three days even if it is swallowed by a mutant creature, making it convenient for teachers to help collect the body or relics and give a final explanation to the family.
…
While there was some unrest in the square outside because of Qin Tianhu's death, Chen Chu in the training room also swallowed the blood essence of the eighth-level behemoth in one gulp.
boom!
The power contained in the blood essence of a level eight dragon beast is extremely terrifying.
As soon as Chen Chu swallowed it, a domineering and hot force burst out, and even Chen Chu felt the pain in his stomach.
Fortunately, at this moment a tremendous amount of energy appeared out of nowhere in the body, half of which flowed into the dantian, and in an instant, the originally dormant dragon elephant true power roared out.
Because the true power integrated into that energy was too strong, it even sounded like a rushing river in Chen Chu's body.
However, this time the Dragon Elephant True Power did not wrap up and refine the dragon's essence and blood as it did in the past, but merged with the dragon blood to form a special golden-red force.
Roar, roar, roar!
The true power mixed with the essence and blood of the dragon beast faintly emitted a dragon roar, and circulated along the route of the sixth level of the Dragon Elephant Technique. Wherever it passed, all the "dragon power" originally integrated into the body was activated.
boom!
Chen Chu's terrifying physical strength was instantly detonated, and waves of tangible power spread out from him, and layers of transparent ripples appeared in the surrounding space.
That is the phenomenon of air being squeezed into substance. The air expands rapidly, forming invisible gusts of wind that fill the entire training room.
The route of the sixth level of practice is more complicated. Under the domineering power of the True Dragon, remote and subtle meridians are forcibly opened up, almost covering every part of Chen Chu's body.
With every rotation, the true energy surged and soon broke through the peak of the fourth level. The vast and boundless true energy gathered in the dantian and compressed madly.
As the true power continued to compress and rotate, Chen Chu's willpower, which had already met the requirements, was integrated into it, and in an instant a crystal slowly condensed in the center of the vortex.
boom!
A true force that was several times stronger was born, and in an instant, the aura of the fifth level of Chen Chu burst out, and the true force in his body began to circulate at a faster speed.
Every time these true forces circulate, when they return to the dantian, they will be purified by the core that appears to be crystallized, but is actually a combination of will and true force, and become more powerful.
At the same time, as the true power continued to circulate and grow stronger, the domineering dragon blood essence was continuously absorbed by Chen Chu's body, integrating into his muscles, bones and even cells throughout his body.
Gradually, complete golden dragon scales that looked like substance and energy appeared on Chen Chu's body, making him look like a humanoid dragon beast.
As golden dragon scales covered his entire body, all the dragon power in Chen Chu's body instantly connected into one.
roar!
In an instant, Chen Chu heard a real dragon roar and elephant roar in his body. His whole aura suddenly changed, and a divine power burst out that was more domineering than that of a dragon and more violent than that of an elephant.
boom!
As the aura of unparalleled and terrifying power erupted, a circle of white air waves exploded around Chen Chu, and the entire training room shook violently with a howling wind.
Snap, snap! !
With Chen Chu as the center, the hard bluestone under his feet continued to crack and sink, forming a meteorite crater with a diameter of three meters, which seemed unable to support his existence.
Whoosh whoosh!!
After the dragon power was connected into one, Chen Chu's physical essence was suddenly strengthened madly in another way.
Suddenly his breathing became heavier, causing gusts of wind. The shoulder-length black hair behind him moved without wind, and there was an inexplicable power between his brows, like a sleeping god.
At the same time, the phantoms of the dragon and elephant in Chen Chu's sea of consciousness were also roaring.
Roar, roar, roar!!
Under the fusion of the pure power transformed from the attribute points, the transparent phantoms of the dragon and elephant became clearer and clearer, and gradually a giant beast as huge as a mountain appeared in Chen Chu's sea of consciousness.
boom!
As the power of will grew stronger, the dragon elephant that manifested the spiritual will completely condensed, and in an instant a heavy aura that suppressed the heaven and earth spread.
The dragon elephant was surrounded by white spiritual power clouds, as if it were a mythical beast from mythology or legend, with four legs stepping on the sky and emitting an inexplicable power.
Under the influence of this heavy and repressive aura, Chen Chu's sea of consciousness suddenly became very stable.
At this moment, the mind and eye realm in the depths of the sea of consciousness that had been strengthened to the limit condensed, and the rune of cutting the void that looked like a knife and a rune appeared from the depths and instantly merged into the center of the dragon elephant's eyebrows.
A line resembling an eye formed between the dragon elephant's eyebrows, and suddenly a strange feeling surged in Chen Chu's heart.
It was like he had an extra eye between his eyebrows, which allowed him to look at the empty world, and with a thought, it could transform into an invisible blade and slash out to destroy all the nothingness.
This change surprised Chen Chu, but he didn't have the energy to study it at the moment, and his consciousness was soon immersed in countless information about the exercises.
This breakthrough took a long time. It was not until two hours later that Chen Chu slowly opened his eyes, revealing black eyes as bright as stars and golden vertical pupils.
Compared to the last time, this time the pair of golden vertical dragon eyes were completely focused.
The calm eyes revealed the majesty, nobility, dominance, and indifference of a dragon creature.
At this moment, another layer of the world in Chen Chu's eyes became very clear, and he could clearly see tiny cracks appearing and disappearing in the 'deep layer' of space.
It's like space is not one layer, but many overlapping layers.
As for the effect of the eye talent... it seems that there is none! ? Chen Chu raised his eyebrows slightly, because he felt that his eyes were not that simple.
Thinking of this, Chen Chu summoned the property page with an idea.
Realm: Fifth Heaven [Mid-term]
Constitution: 1120 → 1220
Strength: 1210 → 1450
Agility: 995 → 1050
Spirit: 1010 → 1150
Talent: Soul Split + [Top]
Golden Dragon Double Pupils + [Intermediate, can see through the surface space, observe the essence of space, and when activated can affect space fluctuations to a certain extent.
Note: When this talent is raised to the extreme, the space within its sight can collapse and the dimension can be torn apart.]
Skills: Dragon Elephant Tyrant Body + [Sixth level, will manifests the mighty dragon elephant, physique undergoes a second qualitative change to condense the mighty Tyrant Body] Eight Desolate Purgatory Halberd [Great Mastery]
Secret Technique: Hidden Spirit + [Minor Achievement]
Runes: Elephant's Fury [Incomplete] Slash the Void [Incomplete]
Attribute points: 18
Equipment: Eight Desolations Battle Halberd...
Body: Ancient six-horned lightning beast...
Chen Chu's eyes fell on the newly awakened talent, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He didn't expect that the awakened talent would be an ability related to space.
And it can affect space fluctuations to a certain extent as soon as it awakens. As for how powerful it is, we will know after later testing.
However, what Chen Chu values most is the "passive" nature of observing space.
When he breaks through to the ninth level in the future, maybe he can use his double pupils to comprehend the 'laws' of space. By then, once he breaks through to the king level, he will become extremely terrifying.
call!
Chen Chu suppressed the excitement in his heart and scanned the four major attributes.
This time, with the breakthrough in his martial arts, his physical fitness increased by 100 points after he condensed his domineering body, his strength attribute soared by 200, and other attributes also gained a certain increase.
However, this change is only superficial.
Chen Chu closed the attribute page and slowly moved his arms. In an instant, the muscles in his arms swelled and an extremely powerful force that shook the heaven and earth burst out from his body.
boom!
Dragons roared and elephants roared, and the earth shook.
The fist covered with golden dragon scales punched out, and the air in front was instantly squeezed into a ball, forming a rolling wall of air that slammed into the wall in the distance.
Boom! The entire training room was shaking constantly under this punch, the roar of the air wave explosion echoed endlessly, and the wind was howling.
When the strong wind died down, a fist mark with a diameter of three meters and a depth of twenty centimeters appeared on the steel-stone wall that was as hard as alloy, as if a giant's fist had left an imprint there.
"What a domineering power." Chen Chu was slightly amazed.
He didn't use his true strength just now, but instead used pure and domineering physical strength to punch through the air. He didn't expect the power to be so terrifying.
It is worthy of being called the mighty and powerful body that possesses a trace of the power of a giant beast.
After condensing the dominant body, Chen Chu's body was as strong as a dragon creature, transcending the ordinary flesh and blood body, and the golden scales on his body had the powerful defense of a dragon and elephant.
In addition, the blood and strength of the whole body are completely integrated into one, and the strength is mixed as one. After integrating with the true power, it is even more powerful and domineering.
Feeling the power in his body that seemed to be able to shake the heavens and the earth, Chen Chu felt that he could kill a sixth-level cultivator with just one punch.
And this time it was not an illusion, because he was really that strong.
Although his current cultivation level is only the middle fifth level.
However, the combined advantages of his second qualitative change of divine power and terrifying physical strength gave him an explosive increase in combat power.
As for how powerful it is, you need to find a level six alien beast and kill it to find out.
But the breakthrough was not over yet. Chen Chu took out the two level 4 life crystals and thought in his mind: "Convert attribute points."
"You have transformed high-purity crystallized life energy and gained 72 and 81 attributes."
Suddenly, the attribute page, which only had 18 points left, soared to 171. Seeing this, Chen Chu's thoughts rang in his mind again: "Consume attribute points to strengthen the hidden secret method."
The purpose of strengthening the secret method was not to show off, but mainly because he had only been in the alien beast battlefield for less than a month, so it was better for him to restrain himself.
Besides, Dacheng's secret method of concealing breath will be of great help whether he goes into the mountains or does other things next time.
For example, he could go deeper into the Yunwu Mountains to hunt level six alien beasts and explore for resources. Moreover, once he had killed a level six alien beast and came back without the need for challenge, his ranking on the battle record would skyrocket and his strength would be exposed.
Of course, if I meet a guy in the top ten of the Fifth Level Peak Battle Record List in the mountains, I can challenge him. I wonder how many moves those monsters can take on from him now?
As Chen Chu's voice fell, the attribute points he had just gained instantly turned into 21.
At the same time, an invisible force appeared out of nowhere in his body. The blood runes that had once merged into his shoulders and abdomen emerged, shattered, and merged into one with that force.
Gradually, a complete ancient rune appeared.
…
Five o'clock in the afternoon.
"Brother, I heard you got rich."
"Hehe! What kind of fortune do you mean? I just found a few jade snow lotuses."
"Holy crap, you actually found Jade Snow Lotus, how many are there?"
"Six. These snow lotuses grew on a pool of water on the edge of the Nine Rings Mountains. But they hadn't bloomed yet, so I watched them for almost a month."
"One month. Do you know how I spent this month? I ate mutant game that I killed every day. I almost vomited after eating so much."
"Fuck, you're so lucky."
"Indeed, if I could find six Jade Snow Lotuses, I would be willing to eat game for two months." Several people around showed envy in their eyes.
The Jade Snow Lotus is a high-level plant resource. One flower is worth 60 contribution points. After eating it and refining it, the total amount of true power can be greatly increased.
But you can't eat too much, otherwise your true energy will not be condensed enough, and there will be too many impurities and it will be difficult to break through the realm.
When these students discover growing resources in the wild, they will wait there for them to mature, and upload the data coordinates and mark them as being guarded.
This practice is similar to an official certification. Once certified, others cannot snatch it away.
The main purpose is to avoid the destruction of natural treasures due to fighting, and to prevent some geniuses of the fifth level from bullying others by taking advantage of their power.
After all, this place still falls within the scope of school management fees, and the purpose is to educate students, not to let them fight and form feuding gangs.
Of course, this approach is only effective around the base. It will be ineffective once you enter a place like the Misty Mountains, after all, satellites cannot monitor it.
After the breakthrough, Chen Chu continued to practice for a few hours. After he became thoroughly familiar with the power after the breakthrough, he activated the mysterious method of concealment, restrained his breath, and left the practice room.
Just as I walked out of the training area, I saw a few old students from the Fourth Level sitting on the steps chatting and gossiping out of boredom.
At this moment, big red words suddenly flashed on the big screen at the edge of the square.
"Nantian Wugao, Ji Changkong, defeated Heshan Wugao Bailiyun and is currently ranked 75th on the battle record list."
When the lower grades defeat the higher grades, it is called a counterattack. Therefore, even though many red-character posters have been seen in the past two days, there was still a burst of excitement in the square.
"Damn, Ji Changkong has already made it into the top 100 on the battle record list. Didn't he just break through to the middle stage of the fifth level not long ago?"
"Moreover, Baili Yun was a mid-level fifth-level expert last year, and his strength is unfathomable."
"It's unfathomable bullshit. He hasn't even broken through to the late fifth level for more than half a year. It's more like standing still. How can someone who has reached the fifth level by grinding away at it over time be a match for a monster like Changkong?"
"Hey, guy, if you rely on time to get to the top, aren't you being disrespectful to us third-year seniors? Why don't you try to get a fifth-level mid-stage one?"
Suddenly, the second-year student from the third level was a little embarrassed and apologized quickly: "Sorry, senior, I just made a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue."
Just when Ji Changkong was among the top 100 at the base, Chen Qi and several other teachers were standing by the window in the office building on the mountainside.
"Talented people emerge in every generation." Yu Qinghua couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the big words flashing on the big screen.
“I don’t know why, but every time I see these young people making rapid progress and each generation becoming stronger than the last, I feel happy from the bottom of my heart.”
Chen Qi said calmly: "It's normal. This shows that our education and training mechanism is becoming more and more perfect, and at the same time, the human race's foundation is becoming stronger and stronger."
“Think about it, when we graduated more than ten years ago, only those few monsters could break through to the fourth level, and the rest of us only reached the third level when we graduated.”
“Who would have thought that more than ten years later, many of these third-year students have already reached the peak of the fifth level before they even graduate.”
"Look at Ji Changkong from the second grade, Chen Chu, An Fuqing, Li Hao and others from the first grade. With their training speed, they may be able to break through the sixth level in their third grade."
Another female teacher said with emotion: "I just hope that after these students leave school, even if they don't become pillars of the country, they will at least be grateful and not become traitors."
"What they should be most grateful to are those pioneers. If it weren't for the Zhenwu Heavenly King and his men who proposed the earth-shaking plan and spent all their efforts to create the foundation-building method."
"In addition, if we lead the various armies to attack continuously over the years and occupy a large amount of resources to feed back to the country, there will not be enough resources for these students to practice."
The others couldn't help but nodded slightly.
Don’t be fooled by the rapid progress of these students’ cultivation; that’s because the environment is so good that high-level and even advanced resources can be obtained as long as they work hard enough.
Otherwise, without these resources, even a monster would not be able to break through the fifth level so quickly through simple hard practice.
As for those students with average talents, they should stop dreaming before they can achieve their goals in ten or twenty years.
At this moment, big red words flashed on the big screen again.
"Hong Tianyi, Nantian Wugao, realm four, broke through today, March 5th, and is ranked 37th on the first-year genius list!"
"Another genius from our Nantian Wu High School has made the list."
At the edge of the square, Chen Chu, who was passing by, stopped and looked at Hong Tianyi who was slowly putting down his hand not far away, with a smile on his face.
"Student Hong, congratulations on breaking through the fourth level."
After more than half a month, Chen Chu saw his classmate who had entered the battlefield with him again, and there was some emotion in his eyes.
Because he is already in the middle stage of the fifth level.
Hong Tianyi, who exuded a scholarly temperament, showed a gentle smile on his face: "No, compared to the rest of you, I'm already more than half a month late."
Chen Chu shook his head: "More than half a month is not one or two years. This amount of time will pass in a flash for us cultivators. Maybe one day you will surpass us at a faster speed."
Hong Tianyi said modestly: "It's not that simple. I just hope you guys can wait for me."
Although he said this, Hong Tianyi's eyes were full of confidence.
Just as Chen Chu said, the time between everyone's breakthrough was only about half a month apart.
This amount of time is insignificant to a cultivator after the fourth level. Maybe he will break through to the middle, late or even fifth level earlier.
Hong Tianyi, who had just returned, was covered in dust. He chatted briefly with Chen Chu and then they left.
The next morning, Chen Chu packed up, replenished some supplies and set off again.
This time he planned to go deep into the Yunwu Mountains to hunt down level six mutant beasts and test how strong he would be after the breakthrough.
