"Whoosh!"
In that instant, the golden-winged great roc bird's shadow, formed by the secret runes on Du Shaofu's back, once again transformed into secret runes and fell into his body, as if merging with his body, leaving no trace. However, it made Du Shaofu's body crackle with a resounding sound, emitting a powerful golden light that eventually slowly faded away.
"Phew!"
When everything calmed down, Du Shaofu exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, opened his eyes, and his clear gaze was tinged with a hint of pale gold, exuding a domineering aura.
"先天境, I've directly broken through to the先天境."
Feeling the changes within his body, Du Shaofu was dumbfounded. Just a short while ago, he was still a person without any cultivation realm, but in a short time, he had actually reached the先天境.
The先天境 truly marked him as a martial practitioner. A cultivator at the先天境 could walk with confidence throughout the entire Stone City.
"What a powerful cultivation method of the golden-winged great roc clan."
Du Shaofu was amazed. The miraculous breakthrough to the先天境 was clearly due to the cultivation method of the golden-winged great roc clan. This cultivation method was not just powerful; the body-strengthening techniques were even more formidable, filled with endless mysteries.
Feeling the changes within his body, Du Shaofu felt as if his entire body had undergone another bone-marrow cleansing, reborn once more. The cultivation method of the golden-winged great roc was truly domineering.
After a moment, Du Shaofu finally came to his senses from the shock and joy, realizing that he had not only reached the先天境 but had also cultivated the golden-winged great roc's method. Everything was unbelievable and hard to accept.
Touching the area over his heart, Du Shaofu could feel the spot where a rib had been forcibly broken and replaced with another piece of bone. This bone was related to the golden-winged great roc, and the cultivation method he had learned came from this bone.
The mysterious energy that had been continuously flowing from the bone stopped when he opened his divine gate and reached the先天境. The bone had seamlessly fused with his own bones, as if it had always been a part of him, everything was incredibly mysterious and profound.
"Where am I? How did I end up here?"
Du Shaofu then realized he was in a cave, not knowing how he had gotten there, and he was completely naked. He had clearly been in the storm caused by the self-destruction of the golden-winged great roc and the purple-flame demon phoenix, yet he was now here.
His purple robe had been burned away, and vaguely, Du Shaofu remembered that purple flames had erupted from his body, burning his clothes to ashes.
Nearby, Du Shaofu found the jade bottle that had contained the blood essence of the explosive stone demon wolf and the two brocade boxes that had held the foundation-building pills. However, the bottle and boxes were now just remnants, seemingly burned away by the high temperature.
This made Du Shaofu feel a pang of pain. The blood essence of the explosive stone demon wolf and the foundation-building pills were both valuable. Du Shaofu had originally planned to use them to cleanse and build his foundation to break through to the先天境.
But thinking about it, he was now at the先天境, and his body had undergone significant changes, all thanks to the golden-winged great roc. Compared to the explosive stone demon wolf, the difference was like heaven and earth. The explosive stone demon wolf was incomparable, and Du Shaofu felt relieved.
"Hey!"
Du Shaofu's face showed surprise. He had thought everything had been burned to ashes, but he found two items: a small tower and a beast bone. Both had been obtained and kept by him when he was searching for the Purple Qi Sunlight Scripture in the Du Family's martial arts library. The jade bottle and brocade boxes had been reduced to ashes, but the small tower and beast bone were completely undamaged. This made Du Shaofu feel curious and realize that these items were likely extraordinary.
In the early morning, the vast forest was filled with a misty air.
Towering trees stood, their canopies blocking out the sky, allowing only a few rays of light to penetrate the layers of leaves.
A young girl and a boy were moving through the forest, their faces tense and their appearances rather disheveled.
"We must find Elder Crane as soon as possible, or we'll be in trouble," the girl said softly, her feet moving swiftly as she darted through the forest, as if trying to escape something.
"The damned Sky Snake Sect, I will never forgive them," the boy, around sixteen or seventeen years old, said, holding a long sword and cursing as he ran, but his speed was clearly slower than the girl's, indicating his weaker strength.
"Zhu Xue, you can't escape. Hand over the treasure, and I'll let you go," a voice called out suddenly. Several figures appeared ahead, led by a young man in his early twenties with a smile on his face. His tall, slender figure and handsome face would likely make him very popular with girls, but his narrow, single-lidded eyes gave him a cold, sinister look.
"Whoosh, whoosh!"
As the young man and his group appeared, more figures leaped down from the surrounding towering trees, quickly surrounding the young girl and boy.
The young girl and boy's faces changed in shock, and they stopped, standing back-to-back in a defensive stance, warily watching their surroundings.
"Lu Kun, if you dare to harm us, the Mystic Symbol Sect will never let you off," the girl, tall and slender, wearing a long dress, said, her body emitting a fluctuation of mysterious energy, her bright eyes filled with seriousness.
"Zhu Xue, do you think the Sky Snake Sect fears your Mystic Symbol Sect? That might scare others, but not me," the young man, Lu Kun, smiled at the girl, a cold smirk on his lips. "I'll ask you one more time, will you hand over the treasure?"
Zhu Xue glanced at the surrounding figures, her eyes narrowing, and her body emitting a surge of mysterious energy. "If you want the treasure, your strength isn't enough to take it."
"Then I'll have to take it myself."
Lu Kun sneered and turned to a burly man in his thirties beside him. "Third Captain, you were right. They did come here. Now, the girl is mine to deal with, and the boy is yours. Let's finish this quickly. The treasure goes to the Sky Snake Sect, and everything else on their bodies is yours."
"Rest assured, Young Master Lu. We know this Savage Beast Mountain Range better than anyone. I told you they couldn't escape. The girl is yours, and the boy is mine. After dealing with these two, we'll go after the others," the burly man said, a leopard head tattoo visible on his exposed arm, his body emitting a powerful aura.
"Then let's get started."
Lu Kun nodded. As he spoke, he looked at Zhu Xue, a cold smile on his face, and a surge of mysterious energy gathered at his feet. He shot out a palm filled with a cold, mysterious energy directly at Zhu Xue.
"Shi Ge, be careful."
Facing the cold, mysterious energy, Zhu Xue felt her skin tighten, a sense of alertness flashing through her mind. Her figure darted swiftly, retreating to the side.
"Whoosh."
A cold, piercing energy passed by Zhu Xue's neck, narrowly missing her. Her delicate hands formed a seal, and a finger seal condensed, shooting directly at Lu Kun's chest!
「I got up at five in the morning to catch a flight and just got home, so the update is a bit late. I apologize for being an hour late. To make up for it, I'll add an extra chapter today. If you haven't added this book to your shelf, please do so. Thank you.」
