Soon, Leng Yuexi entered a state of secluded cultivation.
The entire valley was surrounded by a powerful second-stage formation to prevent intrusion from enemies.
Zhou Sui, Ji Bingyu, Xia Jingyan, and Mu Ziyi naturally played the role of Protectors, consistently stationed within the valley.
Even if Leng Yuexi was not in seclusion, they rarely went out, choosing to cultivate in the valley.
After all, they had only recently advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage and needed time to consolidate their cultivation.
In the meantime, cultivators from various families sporadically appeared in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
It wasn’t just the Jiang family who sought refuge deep in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range—other cultivating families were also present.
Suddenly, the mountain range started to bustle with activity as cultivators began to show up all around the area.
In the blink of an eye, three months had quickly passed.
At this very moment, Zhou Sui was sitting crossed-legged in his personal meditation room, operating the Insect God Sutra to communicate with the Dragon Elephant Gu within him.
Boom Boom Boom—
Suddenly, another stream of mysterious blood energy poured from the Dragon Elephant Gu into Zhou Sui’s body.
At this instant, Zhou Sui felt as if his body had received the nourishment of Dragon Elephant Essence Blood, producing miraculous effects like consuming astonishing body tempering treasure pills.
Perhaps due to the irrigation of mysterious blood energy dozens of times, his body was constantly being strengthened.
Today, a qualitative change had occurred through the accumulation of these quantitative enhancements.
“This!”
Zhou Sui found that his body felt warm, as if there was a furnace burning inside him, enhancing every part of his body, including muscles, bones, skin, etc.
It was as if his body had evolved from human to divine beast.
The power within his body showed explosive growth.
An aura from the ancient primordial age emanated from him, establishing a terrifying pressure.
Vaguely, mysterious runes appeared on his skin, releasing waves of mystical power that formed an impregnable golden energy shield.
The ground where he was meditating was shattered by this terrifying surge of blood energy, forming a massive crater.
Dense fractures appeared on the ground.
The central area was crushed into powder, manifesting fearsome destructive power.
“Body Foundation Building, have I achieved Body Foundation Building now?!”
Instantly, Zhou Sui’s eyes emitted a horrifying brilliance. He felt an unprecedented amplification of the power within his body, reaching at least a hundred thousand catties of immense strength.
Every move he made was like an ancient primordial beast.
With a casual punch, he could slay a first-grade magical beast, bursting it into several pieces of meat.
The blood energy within his body increased at a terrifying rate.
Every drop of blood in him was filled with a vibrant heat that could instantly burn evil spirits that came close into ashes.
The Qi and blood running through his body now was inexplicably vigorous and abundant.
Of course, Zhou Sui felt that the most astonishing change within his body was his skin.
His skin was no longer human—it was as smooth as jade with no scars, looking like the skin of a newborn baby.
Even more so, mysterious and ancient dark gold runes had been engraved deep into his skin, making it extremely tough.
He instantly knew that his body had gone through an extraordinary change— this was the Elephant Skin granted by the Dragon Elephant Gu!
Legend has it that this skin originated from a Divine Elephant from Hell.
It was even more formidable than the skin of a divine dragon.
The divine dragon was covered in scales that could foil many attacks, offering unparalleled defense. However, it had an Achilles’ heel—it was vulnerable at the Reverse Scales. Once a Reverse Scale got broken, the divine dragon would die. That was the divine dragon’s weakness.
But, the Divine Elephant from Hell was different. Its skin exhibited flawless perfection, without any vulnerabilities.
It possessed a formidable physical defense ability.
Against the physical attack of a Qi Cultivation Stage cultivator, it was virtually immune, without the slightest scratch.
If it was an assault from a Foundation Establishment Stage Body Cultivator, then each attack’s power would be diminished by half.
Simultaneously, it had remarkable skill defense abilities.
The regular skills of Qi Cultivation Stage could essentially be disregarded, easily shattered with a single punch.
As for a Foundation Establishment Stage skill cultivator’s technique, it could also reduce half of the attack.
It could be said that this skin of an elephant was equivalent to wearing a lower-grade defensive spiritual artifact on one’s body.
Endowed with an astounding defensive power.
“Is this the power of Dragon Elephant’s Body?”
Zhou Sui was in awe.
Although he had known that as his cultivation continually advanced, the Dragon Elephant Gu would bring him massive benefits, he had never imagined it could actually aid him in achieving Physical Foundation Building.
This advantage was simply too significant.
Despite his current cultivation not having reached the Foundation Establishment realm yet, his body had evolved into a Body Cultivation condition of that level.
In other words, the power of his body alone could resist an early-stage cultivator in the Foundation Establishment realm.
“Right, I should check my body’s data first.”
At this moment, Zhou Sui had a thought and immediately opened his virtual panel.
[Host: Zhou Sui, Cultivation: Qi Cultivation nineth Layer(progress 70%), Lifespan: 23(350) years]
[Aptitude: Sixth stage Spirit Root(3%)]
[Swordsmanship: First-grade Superior(99%)]
[Rune: First-grade Superior(99%)]
[Seventh-Order formation: First-grade Superior(55%)]
[Pill Master: Second stage Inferior(79%)]
[Phantasma Transformation skill: Minor Accomplishment(75%)]
[Five Elements Alchemy Technique: Great Achievement(i5%)]
[Seven Apertures Spirit Secret: Heart-eye Recognition(45%)]
[Fireball Technique: Grandmaster(i9%); Wind Blade Art: Proficient; Golden Light skill: Proficient; Ice Frost skill: Proficient; Spring Wind Rain skill: Proficient; Lightning Summoning skill: Proficient…]
[Obsession Gu: Second-stage Superior; Clone Gu: First-grade Superior; Wine Bug: First-grade Superior; Gold Eating Bug: First-grade Superior; Bookworm: First-grade Superior; Dream Soul Gu: First-grade Superior; Dragon Elephant Gu: First-grade Superior; Golden Light Thousand Poison Gu : First-grade Superior.]
Immediately, a series of magnificent data was displayed before him.
This also allowed him to comprehend his current conditions to a certain extent.
After three months of cultivation, his Qi Cultivation had improved greatly.
Of course, because the Qi Cultivation progress at the ninth stage was extremely slow, it would usually take at least ten years for an ordinary cultivator to reach the accomplished realm, perhaps even longer.
And Zhou Sui, was cultivating the Insect God Sutra.
Each Gu Insect was equivalent to a Dantian Qi Sea.
Therefore, his cultivation improvement did not only benefit his main body, but also needed to assist in the cultivation improvement of the Gu Insects.
As such, the speed of cultivation was even slower.
In three months, he had only achieved a 10% improvement.
Thankfully, his Spirit Root had improved to the sixth stage, reaching the Mid Grade Spirit Root realm.
Otherwise, if he still was at the Lower Grade Spirit Root realm, his cultivation speed would have been much slower.
Even so, he was quite satisfied with his present cultivation speed. He estimated that in about a year and a half, he could elevate his cultivation to the accomplished status of the Qi Cultivation nineth Layer.
By then, he could attempt to lay the Foundation, advancing to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
This was already a progress rate that could be considered as visible to the naked eye..
