During the past period of time, Gao Yuan didn't go anywhere.
He has been staying in the underground stronghold, methodically following the predetermined plan, and practicing with concentration.
Improve your own level of cultivation, sharpen your body with the help of "Blood Jade Skill Hunyuan Chapter", use "spiritual energy" to cultivate the magical power "Roar of the Giant Spirit", and refine the magic weapon "Blue Sky Sword".
Every minute and every second, he could feel that his strength was accumulating and improving bit by bit.
This process of watching himself become stronger makes him live an extremely fulfilling life every day.
In contrast, the 'advanced crystallized magic core' he had hoarded before was being rapidly consumed by his constant 'condensation' with the help of the system.
Until last night, when he habitually took the 'Advanced Crystallized Magic Core' from the storage bag.
Then I remembered that there were only sixteen pills left in the latter's inventory.
According to his consumption rate over this period of time, such a small amount of 'advanced crystallized magic core' is not even enough for him to practice with all his strength for three days.
After all, whether it is the master-level "Red Flame True Art", the magical power "Roar of the Giant Spirit", or the magic weapon "Blue Sky Sword" that is about to be completed, they are all real "spiritual energy" consumers!
"Without further ado, after finishing today's morning exercise, let's go to the Gray Desert."
"It just so happens that I can use the hands of those 'weird demons' to verify the results of my practice over the past period of time."
Sitting cross-legged on the soft floor in the lounge, Gao Yuan folded his hands and slowly pressed down.
With the help of breath adjustment, the operation mode of "Red Flame True Art" in the body is replaced from the active operation during meditation practice to the passive training mode that comes with the master-level exercises.
His consciousness then came out and looked around his 'natal pearl'.
After more than half a month, with the continuous use of high-purity 'spiritual energy', the speed of practicing the magical power 'Roar of the Giant Spirit' can be said to be rapid.
Under his spiritual perception, the 'vocal sac', which is the core of magical power, is not much different from when the 'prototype of magical power' was just condensed more than half a month ago.
However, if he uses his spiritual consciousness to penetrate deeply into the 'vocal sac' and carefully explore it, he can clearly feel the surging energy fluctuations contained inside after the latter enters the 'initial formation' stage.
"Well, I don't know what the effect will be if I use 'Roar of the Giant' with all my strength now."
Gao Yuan held his chin with one hand and muttered to himself expectantly.
We have learned from the past experience that when the 'prototype of supernatural power' was first condensed, most of the furnishings in the lounge were destroyed as soon as it was used.
Naturally, he would not blindly test the true power of magical powers in the 'initial development' stage at home this time.
Secretly planning to go to the Gray Desert to find some strange demons to practice with, he quickly focused his attention on the magic weapon Blue Sky Knife, which was next to the Voice Sac.
As he continues to cultivate, the latter is getting closer and closer to reaching the 'Dacheng Stage'.
Although they have not yet gone through the last round of transformation and the increase in power, they are closely connected to each other through blood.
Gao Yuan can still feel that the power of the 'Blue Sky Sword' has been greatly improved again compared to before!
So much so that he could feel more and more that when the true seal inside the latter circulated, it carried a sharp energy that could tear the void apart.
"I wonder what level I am at among the monks in the Hunyuan Realm with my current strength?"
Gao Yuan slowly withdrew his consciousness and whispered in his heart.
In the past few years, he has been using the platform of the Exile Alliance to collect as much information as possible.
Until now, although he does not have a systematic and detailed concept of the group of monks at the level of Hunyuan Realm.
However, he was still able to integrate some fragmented information through the various intelligence he learned in daily life.
According to the inference of the known information, the number of monks in this level of Hunyuan Realm is much greater than he had imagined before.
Although he didn't know the specific number, it was at least not the two hundred people he had imagined based on the number of Hunyuan Realm families in the major cities in the Northern Territory.
In fact, according to his understanding, all the ancestors of the Hunyuan Realm family who can station their forces in the main city are actually a small and relatively powerful group of people in the entire Hunyuan Realm group.
In addition, there are many middle- and lower-level Hunyuan Realm monks whose overall strength is too weak to compete for a share of the ‘Spirit Vein Land’ within the main city.
Just like the ancestor of the Chen family in Qingyuan Town.
The main reason why he, as a great monk in the Hunyuan Realm, did not move his family to Qingliang City.
It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that the Chen family ancestors themselves are not as strong as the ancestors of the seven major families in Qingliang City.
Therefore, it is natural that they cannot participate in the battle for the share of the "Spiritual Vein Land" that Qingliang City belongs to.
The only option is to settle for the next best thing and station the family in Qingyuan Town, which has a small 'land of spiritual veins'.
Even so, the ancestor of the Chen family in Qingyuan Town back then could be considered a mid-range existence among Hunyuan Realm monks.
In addition to this, there are still many ordinary Hunyuan realm monks who are not even as good as the ancestors of the Chen family and can only develop in various areas around the Northern Territory.
This can be seen from the thousands of black masks that appear every time the Xuan-level exclusive trading area of the Exile Alliance is opened.
Even among these 'Xuan-level' exiles, many are like Gao Yuan, who were promoted to 'Xuan-level authority' through accumulated contribution points.
But it is still not difficult to see the huge number of Hunyuan Realm monks.
"However, although I have not been in the Hunyuan Realm for a long time, it has only been less than four years."
"But during this period, the amount of spiritual energy I condensed with the help of the system is no less than what ordinary monks can do over hundreds of years!"
"Even though the 'Blue Sky Sword' is a third-level low-grade magic weapon, after cultivating it to the 'Dacheng Stage', its power should be no less than the third-level middle-grade magic weapon of the 'Little Completion Stage'!"
"Coupled with the master-level skills, various skills and the assistance of the Talisman Puppet, even if I am not good enough, I should not be much different from the original ancestor of the Chen family, right?"
"After all, according to the intelligence, the strength of the monsters in the early stage of the third level is enough to rival the average monks in the middle stage of the Hunyuan realm."
"And now, if I face an early third-level monster, even the tiger monster that has condensed the 'rudimentary form of supernatural power' like last time, I can easily kill it!"
"However, according to what I learned during my time in the Kaiyuan Realm, my current strength may still be slightly inferior to those in the Hunyuan Realm under top forces such as 'Flying Dragon City'."
"Well, you still have to stabilize your development for a period of time, and you can't just wander around!"
As his mind turned, Gao Yuan stood up and walked towards the direction of the body training room.
…
An hour later.
In the open space in the center of the physical training room, Gao Yuan was sweating like rain, panting like an ox, twisting and stretching the last few exercises.
After more than half a month of training, he has made quite a breakthrough in this strange and complicated exercise routine.
Compared with when I first started learning, it takes nearly five hours to complete the entire external training process.
At this time, it only takes him a little over an hour at most to complete the entire set of 224 movements.
Although when completing the movement, it is inevitable to feel the pain of tearing the flesh.
But overall, it's much more coherent than before.
And as he moved, wisps of light golden energy penetrated through his skin from time to time, slowly seeping out and covering the surface of his body.
Compared with the monstrous blood light when practicing and using the second-level 'Blood Jade Skill', the advanced version of 'Blood Yuan' condensed by the third-level 'Blood Jade Skill' is much softer visually.
, gradually transformed into gold.
The energy contained in this golden 'blood element' is much more intense and violent than the previous version.
Even though he had only been practicing for less than a month, even the progress of his skills was still at the initial stage of 'Blood Jade Skill Level 1'.
But he feels that his current physical strength has more than doubled compared to before.
He even had a premonition in his heart that even if he didn't use the increase of 'Tian Jue Gang Jin', he would be stronger now.
Simply relying on the strength of the physical body, you can easily fight in close combat with the "Breath of Another World 3" level monster with the "Crystalization" ability, without falling into a disadvantage!
"With the comprehensive improvement of my strength in all aspects, I am getting closer and closer to the level of exploring the ancient ruins in the 'grey desert'!"
Whispering in his heart, Gao Yuan finally completed the last exercise of external cultivation.
While soothing and relaxing his body, which was still twitching slightly under the influence of the outer repair movements, he walked to the tub aside and slowly sat in it.
As the concentrated medicinal solution contained in a clay pot nearby was introduced into the bathtub under the guidance of his spiritual consciousness, a large amount of pale white water vapor suddenly spread around his body.
At the same time, the bone-wrenching "Nine Heavens of Ice and Fire" came again.
Under its stimulation, Gao Yuan's breathing suddenly became heavy.
…
Gray desert, the middle of the yellow area in North District 16.
"Ouch~ho!!"
Under the cover of countless dense chaotic demonic auras, a huge tiger roar suddenly came out that shook the surrounding areas.
A moment later, translucent energy shock waves visible to the naked eye were seen, enveloping the omnipresent dense and chaotic demonic energy, oscillating in all directions.
After the chaotic demonic energy receded, two figures less than ten meters apart appeared in the center of the open space.
The figure rushing in front was a young man wearing a pure black outfit.
Around his waist was a huge belt sewn from unknown animal skin, with several rows of pockets neatly arranged on the surface.
And around this man's body, there is a layer of energy field formed by the gathering of green light and shadow.
These green energies rolled and squirmed, converging into a somewhat illusory image of a tiger with eye-catching eyes, roaring upwards to the sky.
This person was Gao Yuan who flew all the way here after completing today's physical training task.
The figure opposite him was a 'weird demon' with the ability to 'crystallize' activated and fluorescence flowing around his body.
At this moment, the latter was leaping into the air and flying towards him quickly.
At this moment, the magical power 'Roar of the Giant Spirit' was being deployed with all its strength under his urging.
In an instant, under the perception of Gao Yuan's spiritual consciousness, the consumption rate of 'spiritual power' in his body increased by five to six times compared to before.
A large amount of 'spiritual energy' swarmed into the 'vocal sac' under the guidance of an inexplicable fluctuation.
And under the latter's slight contraction, it was quickly transformed into a violent energy wrapped in a mysterious wave of energy.
At the same time, translucent sound shock waves visible to the naked eye, centered on his body, splashed out wantonly into the surrounding space.
The 'weird demon' that pounced from the opposite side was naturally the first to bear the brunt.
I saw it being shaken by the violent sound wave energy transformed by the 'Roar of the Giant Spirit', and its body was frozen in place as if struck by lightning.
And the layer of 'crystallized' luster covering the surface of its body also distorted and oscillated violently.
Not long after, it shattered like glass with a 'buzz' sound.
And the two fierce bloody lights of Zhang Dashu Village that originally swelled from the eyes of this 'weird demon' suddenly dimmed without any warning.
In an instant, the originally fierce and majestic 'devil' was under the pressure of the magical power 'Roar of the Giant Spirit', and his movements became as stiff as a doll with rusty joints.
"Hiss~!"
"Immobilize the body? Suppress the soul? Or break the spell?"
"Is the power of this 'Roar of the Giant Spirit' magical power so amazing?"
Seeing the 'weird demon' whose mobility had been reduced by more than 90% under the continuous sound waves, which looked like a slow-motion stop-motion animation, Gao Yuan couldn't help being surprised, and subconsciously murmured a few words to himself
.
Even though he had all expectations for the powerful power of this 'supernatural power' that only monks at the Hunyuan realm and above could master it.
But at this time, the power displayed by the 'Roar of the Giant Spirit' still greatly exceeded his expectations.
"Tsk! Such an astonishing effect is indeed beyond the reach of conjurations, talismans and the like!"
As his mind turned, Gao Yuan quickly activated the third-level blood jade skill.
Almost instantly, a rich layer of pale golden halo appeared on his right fist.
At the same time, his figure flashed slightly and appeared in front of the 'weird demon', and his right fist suddenly shot out with the power of a heaven-shaking fist.
"Bang~!"
Only a muffled sound soaring into the sky was heard.
I saw that the surface of this 'weird demon''s body suddenly appeared like broken porcelain, with clear cracks appearing straight away, and its body also violently sifted and flew out.
A strange liquid was sprinkled all over the road. At the same time, the broken body of the 'weird demon' flew dozens of meters without rolling, before suddenly landing on the ground.
"Breath of Another World 3..."
The system's gray-white prompt text flashed away, marking the final outcome of this 'devil'.
"Sure enough, even if I don't go out of my way to gather the 'Tian Jue Gang Jin', I can kill the weakest version of the 'Weird Demon' instantly with one punch just by relying on the power of my body."
"Even with the help of the magical power 'Roar of the Giant Spirit', the crystallized defense of this 'devil' was broken ahead of time.
But from this we can also see how much my physical body has improved after practicing the third-level blood jade skill!"
After sighing softly, Gao Yuan chased after him with an excited look on his face.
He skillfully took out a intact 'high-level crystallized magic core' from the broken body.
Then he stopped delaying and continued to patrol back and forth in this yellow area.
