59 Limit
Black vines spread out in Xiao Shi’s body. It was gradually assimilated by his body. It had become a part of its body.
During this process, Xiao Shi’s body and blood qi quickly began to transform. The blood and qi in his body surged crazily like a tide. It emitted waves of scorching aura and actually became as hot as magma.
It emitted a shockingly high temperature!
His tendons, membranes, bones, muscles, skin, internal organs, and so on were also changing. Cracking sounds kept sounding. Waves of powerful and terrifying power spread throughout his entire body.
He just casually clenched his fists, and a muffled explosion that crushed the air sounded.
Xiao Shi felt as if there was a volcano hidden in his body.
Strength continued to spread throughout every piece of flesh. Just the eruption of his physical strength was enough for him to easily tear those ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level martial artists apart.
Not only had his strength undergone a qualitative change, the defense of his body was even more shocking.
“Even if I stand still and let the other ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level martial artists attack me, they won’t be able to touch me.”
Xiao Shi felt that he was already invincible in the Martial Entry-Level.
After a simple comparison with the other ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level martial artists, he could clearly sense the huge difference between the two.
And this was only the strength of his body. This did not include the additional enhancement after nine Body Tempering sessions.
When the Body Tempering was carried out three times, six times, and nine times, there would be additional strengthening.
At the third Body Tempering, he already had the ability to release his Qi and blood at the eighth level of the Martial Entry-Level.
After the sixth Body Tempering, it formed the Blood Qi Shadow Transformation.
Now, his Body Tempering had reached the ninth session.
Boom!
When all the blood and qi in Xiao Shi’s body was released and transformed into the Red Tiger’s head, due to the transformation of his blood and qi, the entire Red Tiger’s head emitted a shockingly high temperature, as if it could burn everything.
At the same time, he had a strong feeling that he could anger the red tiger’s head and form a violent attack.
This was clearly the third realm of the ninth level of the Martial Entry-Level.
Fury of Blood Shadow!
There were a total of three realms in the ninth stage of the Martial Entry-Level.
The first realm was the release of Qi and blood, and the second realm was the Blood Qi Shadow Transformation. And now, after nine Body Temperings, he had reached the third realm—Fury of Blood Shadow!
This realm had never been seen in the Seven Star Province. This realm had never appeared in all the relevant records. In the knowledge of the martial artists in the Seven Star Province, the Blood Qi Shadow Transformation was already the highest realm of the ninth stage of the Martial Entry-Level.
They did not even know that there was a third realm in the world.
However, it was not convenient for Xiao Shi to try the violent attack of the Fury of Blood Shadow now.
He was worried that it would cause too much commotion.
Just the shockingly high temperature emitted by the red tiger’s head that he had transformed into had already caused the surrounding temperature to rise continuously.
Xiao Shi hurriedly retracted his blood and qi into his body. This was to prevent unnecessary trouble if the temperature continued to rise. Fortunately, many night patrollers were resting in their tents. No one noticed his situation here.
After refining the [Ghost Cry Vine], the ability ‘Night Howl’ could not be used as it was daytime. It would only be effective at night. After experiencing the strength of nine Body Tempering sessions, Xiao Shi could not wait to take out the [Martial Emperor Mask] from his storage bag.
He wanted to give it a try. He wanted to see if he could put it on.
“If I can successfully put it on, it means that I have already become the strongest Martial Entry-Level expert!”
Xiao Shi took a deep breath. He tried to put the mask on his face. However, in the next second,
the entire mask fell off his face with a buzz!
He failed to put on the mask.
“As expected, I’m not the only one in this world who can do nine Body Temperings!” Xiao Shi sighed.
He was not too surprised by this. Although he had already surpassed ordinary ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level martial artists by too much, he was still not the strongest at the Martial Entry-Level in this world.
Xiao Shi looked at the remaining heavenly treasure [Jade Dragon Frost] in his hand.
Unfortunately, nine Body Tempering sessions was already the limit of the Martial Entry-Level Body Tempering. At this moment, it was no longer useful to use natural treasures for Body Tempering.
The subsequent Body Tempering needed to be combined with a Body Tempering cultivation technique to succeed. However, Xiao Shi did not plan to be in a hurry to undergo the subsequent Body Tempering.
He knew very well that if he continued to temper his body, his body would break through to the Martial Entry-Level and reach the Qi Martial Realm.
Once he reached the Qi Martial Realm, then he would never be able to wear the [Martial Emperor Mask] again in his life.
The Martial Emperor Mask could only be worn at the Martial Entry-Level. Once he broke through to the Qi Martial Realm, he would never be able to wear it again. This way, even if he wore the other parts of the Emperor Set in the future, the Emperor Set would be incomplete because of the lack of the [Martial Emperor Mask].
Therefore, before putting on the [Martial Emperor Mask], Xiao Shi had to stay at the Martial Entry-Level and could not rush to break through to the Qi Martial Realm.
He could not help but start to think seriously. How could he become the strongest in the Martial Entry-Level? Currently, his Body Tempering has already reached the limit of the Martial Entry-Level. If he wanted to continue improving, he could only start from other aspects.
“I still feel that I can only improve by taking pills.”
Xiao Shi recalled that among the items that had dropped this time, there was a medicinal pill that could strengthen the body. Moreover, the quality had reached perfection.
However, after he swallowed this pill, the increase was so weak that it was almost negligible.
This made him frown.
After nine Body Temperings, his body had already reached the limit. At this moment, even if he consumed pills, there would not be any obvious improvement.
In other words, the method of taking pills was no longer feasible.
This made him a little worried.
He could imagine that even if he was not the strongest Martial Entry-Level now, he was most likely in the strongest state alongside the other Martial Entry-Level martial artists who had completed nine Body Temperings.
At this moment, they had already reached the limit of the Martial Entry-Level. There was no more room to rise. Above that was the Qi Martial Realm. In this extreme state, it was extremely difficult to surpass someone on par with him.
“I feel like I’m missing something.”
His brows were tightly furrowed. For example, the weapons, puppets, and array formations on his body were only external objects and would not be calculated by the Martial Emperor Mask. If he wanted to become the strongest Martial Entry-Level expert recognized by the Martial Emperor Mask, he could only think of a way from his own side.
He thought about it for a long time.
Xiao Shi could not figure out how he should take this step. He felt like he was stuck.
“As expected, it’s not easy to become the strongest.” Xiao Shi shook his head. He decided not to think about it anymore. Since he could not think of it now, he would first kill it and obtain more items.
Perhaps there were some special items that could allow him to take this step.
It was easy to drop high-quality items by killing evil spirits.
Back then, Xiao Shi had only obtained two natural treasures after destroying the entire Sandstorm Stronghold. This time, he only killed 20 evil spirits and three heavenly treasures dropped.
In terms of benefits, the benefits of killing evil spirits were definitely not lower than destroying an evil faction. Especially with Xiao Shi’s current strength, as long as he did not encounter an adult evil spirit comparable to the Blood Martial Realm, he had a certain ability to protect himself even if he encountered a half-formed evil spirit comparable to the Qi Martial Realm.
