Unknowingly, the sun had already risen high into the sky. Although the cliff was backlit, Lin Xun still felt a wave of heat. Even under such conditions, he still did not move and quietly explored the mysteries of his body.
After all, Lin Xun was already at the peak of Body Tempering Stage Level 3, and was only one step away from breaking through to Body Tempering Stage Level 4. Although it was only a difference of one stage, it represented the early and middle stages of Body Tempering Stage. One had Qi Sense, while the other did not. It could be said that the difference was like heaven and earth.
His body, which had just been tempered, was particularly sensitive. This was also the best time. Even if Lin Xun did not have the guidance of a senior master, he knew that he could not waste this golden time.
When Lin Xun's mental power was all concentrated, he felt a faint pain and itch in his body. This feeling seemed to burst out from his bone marrow. Even if he wanted to stop it, he could not do anything.
Of course, Lin Xun didn't care about this abnormality at all. What made him most excited was that under this kind of numb, painful, and itchy situation, his physical fitness had actually improved significantly.
This feeling made Lin Xun particularly surprised, because he knew that the biggest limit between the third and fourth layer of Body Tempering was the Qi Sense. In the Heavenly Martial Continent, even ordinary mortals knew that the Qi Sense needed to train their body to the limit of the current realm, and then burst out from the bone marrow.
Therefore, Lin Xun already had such a sign, which meant that he was about to break through to Body Tempering Stage Four.
After learning this news, Lin Xun was quite excited and could not help but immediately train. Training at this time would increase the body's growth the most. If his luck was good enough, he would be able to break through the realm in one fell swoop.
For swordsmen, physical training was not as simple as lifting weights. These were things that only body refining cultivators needed to do. Although the body of a swordsman was strong, it was far inferior to that of a body refining cultivator. However, in terms of attack power, a swordsman was definitely second to none.
Because every inch of a swordsman's muscles was born for wielding a sword, every sword could mobilize the strength of the whole body. Only in this way could they unleash a move that far exceeded the same realm. This was also why a swordsman's attack power was the strongest among those in the same realm.
The best way for swordsmen to train their bodies was to practice their swordsmanship. Not only could it deepen their understanding of swordsmanship, but it could also familiarize their muscles with swordsmanship, so that they could be extremely familiar with their swordsmanship in the future.
From afar, one could see a young man practicing his swordsmanship seriously on the cliff. White clouds could be vaguely seen beside the cliff, and birds would chirp from time to time. It could really be considered a good place.
Meanwhile, Lin Xun's mind was completely focused, and he did not care about his surroundings at all. After practicing each move, he could feel that his body had become stronger. This feeling of becoming stronger made him unwilling to put down the wooden sword in his hand.
Once, twice, thrice…
Unknowingly, half a day had passed. Lin Xun did not even eat lunch. He relied on his tenacious willpower to support himself. The green robe on his body was already drenched in sweat, and there were even some water stains on the floor under his feet. One could imagine how hard it was.
However, Lin Xun still did not give up. This was because he knew that if he did not break through today, he would not know when the next breakthrough would be.
Even though the strength in his body had gradually dried up, there was still a little replenishment in his bone marrow. Otherwise, Lin Xun would have been exhausted long ago.
Suddenly, Lin Xun's calm face frowned slightly, but there was an uncontrollable ecstasy."I'm about to break through."
Because he clearly felt that with the last swing of the sword, an unbearable pain exploded in his bone marrow.
The intense pain was even worse than when he had just taken the Body Refinement Pill. Along with the pain that penetrated deep into his bone marrow, his bones were also slowly strengthening and becoming tougher. The strength that he had lost from practicing the sword was also gradually recovering.
Most importantly, there was a faint warm current in his right arm that was holding the sword. Lin Xun could actually control this warm current completely. He immediately understood that this was the feeling of breaking through to Body Tempering Stage Four.
The intense pain came quickly, but it didn't go away slowly. Lin Xun stood on the cliff for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before it slowly subsided.
As the pain disappeared, Lin Xun opened his tightly shut eyes. At this moment, his eyes were even darker and his gaze was even more determined. This breakthrough made him more confident about the future.
Gently moving his body, a series of crackling sounds came from his body. Only now did Lin Xun truly feel that his body had become much stronger. The difference was even greater than the difference between a mortal and a tempered body.
However, even though his physical strength had increased, Lin Xun's appearance did not change much. He did not look like a muscular man at all. Instead, he looked like a pretty boy. However, only Lin Xun himself knew that this seemingly unremarkable body contained even more powerful strength.
After a round of exercise, Lin Xun displayed the extremely familiar [Versatile Sword Art]. The sound of the wooden sword cutting through the air echoed on the cliff, but the strength was even greater than before.
"One strike to kill!"
The same move was used. A faint sword light flashed on the wooden sword, and a black hole appeared on the mountain wall a full ten feet away. It was obviously caused by the sword light just now.
"Is this sword qi? It's actually so powerful."
Towards his own masterpiece, Lin Xun was somewhat dumbstruck. He had never thought that he would already have such strength after breaking through to the tempered body fourth stage. It must be known that only those who had been immersed in sword arts for many years could use sword qi. He had never thought that Lin Xun would already be able to use it.
Although the Qi in his right arm had disappeared after the Sword Qi, and even his body was a little weak, Lin Xun was still unable to suppress his joy.
One had to know that this move was quite lethal to all Body Tempering cultivators. It could be considered an ultimate move. Even if Linlong came, he might be seriously injured if he was not prepared.
However, this move was still too exhausting for the current Lin Xun. Unless it was a life and death crisis, he could not use it easily. Otherwise, he would become meat on the chopping board.
However, Lin Xun firmly believed that as long as he could continue to break through, then he would not need to worry about the problem of consumption. The fourth stage of the tempered body stage only had a sense of qi, what about the fifth stage? What about the sixth level?
Even at the peak of the Body Tempering stage, after opening up all the meridians in his body, the true qi in his body would definitely be even more. He would not need to worry about this bit of consumption at all. If he could break through to the Qi Refining stage, such a sword qi would only be a casual attack.
At the thought of this, Lin Xun's eyes could not help but reveal a fiery passion. In Qingyun Town, even the three big families could not ignore the masters of the Mortal Realm. With the Qi Refinement Pill, Lin Xun had unknowingly eliminated the biggest obstacle.
As long as he could safely break through to the peak of the Body Tempering stage, he would be able to cultivate Qi.
"Coo, coo!"
Before Lin Xun could imagine the future, his stomach suddenly growled, making him feel a little embarrassed. Looking at the time, the sun had already set. This meant that Lin Xun had not eaten for an entire day.
As time passed, cultivators could eventually reach the realm of fasting, but that was still an unreachable dream for Lin Xun. At this moment, his realm was low, and he still needed a lot of food to supplement himself. Otherwise, he would starve to death before he could cultivate to become an expert.
Immediately, Lin Xun tidied up for a while. The medicinal pills that were originally placed on the roof naturally needed to be kept close to him. No matter how secluded this cliff was and no one knew about it, it was still the safest to keep such precious things with him.
After confirming that he had not missed anything, Lin Xun slowly walked down the cliff. It was dinner time now. Because he had extorted a bamboo stick from Manager Liu this morning and had broken through today, it could be said that it was a double blessing. Lin Xun's mood was quite good at this time. He directly walked towards the restaurant in Qingyun Town.
