The Yuan Ling Mage, upon seeing the sorry state of the three, couldn't help but express some astonishment as he stepped forward and asked, "What happened here? What's going on? Where's that little runt?" The three of them coughed lightly twice and said, "That boy is really sly. Just when we thought we had him, he managed to slip away every time." "Hm? He got away?" The Yuan Ling Mage felt it strange; with their combined strength, how could it be possible for them to let Li Xiaoyao escape? Li Tu of the Li Family, seeing the disheveled state of the three from afar, couldn't help but burst into laughter and loudly asked, "Elders, may I inquire, what's with all these injuries? Don't tell me you weren't looking where you were going and ran into a tree, eh?" "Hmph, I just encountered a powerful Demon Beast, and its Cultivation Level was at least at the Spirit Condensation Realm. Our injuries were incurred while dealing with that beast," Zhou Lu forcibly explained. Before Li Tu could respond, Li Yiming beside him sneered and said, "Elder Zhou really has quite the sense of humor. Within the Human Realm, the strongest Demon Beasts are only at the Spirit Cultivation Realm." "You..." Having been bluntly contradicted by Li Yiming, Zhou Lu's face immediately turned a shade of red. Meanwhile, the other family Sects outside the Human Realm were also engaged in a buzz of discussion. "If you ask me, those three old fellows were probably counter-attacked by Xiaoyao," one of them said. "Xiaoyao is indeed formidable, to have put three strong cultivators of the Spirit Condensation Realm into such a sorry state," another added. Li Tu clicked his tongue in amazement at Li Xiaoyao's feat. Li Yiming spoke casually, "Without the ability to use Spiritual Energy, they are just ordinary Transverse Refinement Grandmasters." "Hahaha, people of the Li Family Clan are indeed extraordinary!" Li Pingshuang laughed heartily, sparing no effort in mocking the three's pathetic appearance. "Li Pingshuang, don't get cocky!" "I refuse to believe that little bastard can keep hiding inside forever. Hmph, the moment he dares show his face, I will kill him on the spot, and his blood will serve as an offering to our fallen Hehuan Sect disciples." Li Pingshuang narrowed his eyes, choosing not to engage in a war of words. As long as Li Xiaoyao could hold out until the arrival of the Li Family's Elder Offering, he would be absolutely safe. Initially, Li Pingshuang was worried that Zhou Lu and his group entering the Human Realm might pose a threat to Li Xiaoyao, but now, seeing them in such a woeful state, Li Pingshuang thought he had obviously worried too much. ... Inside the Human Realm, Li Xiaoyao found another cave, chased out the Demon Beast residing within, then entered the cave and set up a simple Illusion Array at the entrance. Having done this, Li Xiaoyao sat cross-legged, neatly arranging a group of Demon Beast carcasses on the ground, then taking out Demon Cores, two Golden Cores, as well as a pile of Spirit Qi Pills and a small mountain of Spirit Stones. All these were what Li Xiaoyao would use for his impending breakthrough. If he followed the normal procedure, he would only break through one Realm this time, but a single Realm breakthrough was not very useful. Therefore, he planned to use the two Golden Cores, which he had not touched until now, for his breakthrough. These two Golden Cores were obtained from inside Jian Wuji and Yun Feiyang when he killed them. Li Xiaoyao had always been reluctant to rely on external forces for breakthroughs, for a simple reason: the Cultivation Level achieved this way was not solid enough. But now, he couldn't afford to care about that. With four Spirit Condensation Realm powerhouses lying in wait outside the Human Realm, he had to become stronger quickly. It's only in dire straits that one has the greatest opportunity for a breakthrough, a challenge Li Xiaoyao had set for himself. "I hope it doesn't disappoint me," he muttered to himself. Li Xiaoyao took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes. Concentrating his spirit and holding his breath, streams of spiritual energy traveled along fixed meridians, eventually all converging into his dantian. Li Xiaoyao's dantian was now like a vast lake brimming with spiritual energy, yet there was some distance to the breakthrough. With each inhale and exhale, the dense spiritual energy transformed into threads of refined energy, which were sucked into his nostrils. He had cultivated in this manner for about four hours, and the originally calm spiritual energy suddenly turned violent. The entire cave was filled with chaotic and raging auras. Li Xiaoyao's face remained composed, his hands tightly forming the guiding gesture, as spiritual energy from the Human Realm continuously flowed into his body. It seemed the spiritual energy had reached a peak, and with a muffled "boom," a sound erupted from Li Xiaoyao's dantian, followed by an awe-inspiring, torrential presence that shook out from his body. "Broken through!" Li Xiaoyao rejoiced in his heart, but he did not relax, his hand seals changed, and a more massive suction force swept out from his body, harvesting the surrounding spiritual energy as if reaping wheat. "Not enough, not enough!" Li Xiaoyao shouted in his heart, a stream of spiritual energy flew out, lifting the corpses of demon beasts from the ground and rapidly stripping all the essence blood from them. Li Xiaoyao opened his mouth and devoured all of this essence blood. As he continued to devour, the momentum inside Li Xiaoyao was growing at an extremely frightening speed. "Still not enough!" Li Xiaoyao roared internally, demon cores floated up, directly flying into Li Xiaoyao's mouth. "Boom!" As if struck by lightning, Li Xiaoyao's body shook violently, and a wave-like momentum burst forth from him, like a tsunami. Spirit Cultivation Realm Sixth Rank! Having consecutively broken through two realms, Li Xiaoyao's strength had grown innumerable times stronger than before, and yet, he did not stop there but opened his mouth and swallowed the two Golden Cores as well. "Continue!" As the Golden Cores slid down his throat, they continuously released a dense spiritual aura that spread throughout his body. This feeling of fullness made Li Xiaoyao as comfortable as if he were submerged in warm water. Unconsciously, his dantian filled up once again, and a series of muffled sounds kept exploding from within Li Xiaoyao. With each of these muffled sounds, an increasingly stronger presence was released from within him. This powerful presence was so overwhelming that even the cave was shaking continuously. The demon beasts that Li Xiaoyao had previously driven away hid in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to strike, but as soon as they felt this terrifying aura, they immediately turned tail and fled. This terrifying presence continued for about half an hour longer and then gradually subsided. The cave returned to calm and tranquility, and the small mountain of Spirit Stones beside Li Xiaoyao had turned into ordinary rocks, their spiritual energy completely absorbed by him. A high volume of Spirit Qi Pills now remained only as empty bottles. The bodies of the demon beasts had turned into desiccated corpses, stiffly propped on the ground. Li Xiaoyao opened his eyes, a glint of vital energy flashed through them, and he slowly stood up from the ground, fists clenched, feeling the surge of strength that came with the explosive increase in his cultivation level, his heart thrilling with excitement. "As I continue to break through, it seems my Golden Body is also automatically repairing itself," Li Xiaoyao was most aware of his power, and he could clearly sense that his Golden Body was now more complete than before the breakthrough. "System, what's the current completeness of my Golden Body?" Li Xiaoyao asked. "Detected Golden Body, completeness: 35%." [The explosion will happen in the next few days, either on New Year's Eve or the first day of the new year, so stop rushing. It's very busy over the New Year, let's show some understanding, alright?]
