One month later, Murong Xiaorou suddenly opened her crystal-clear eyes that flashed with a touch of light. With a smile on her face, she waved her hands in the air to instantly condense a shadow that was almost similar to her.
She didn’t make any movements, and only her shadow was dancing in the air with a white long sword in its hand, looking like a fairy. . .
"The Ling spirit level. I must have reached the Ling spirit level now,” she muttered to herself. She turned to Chen Feng, but found he had not yet woken up from cultivation.
In the past month, she had made the breakthrough to reach the Ling spirit level, which was shocking news all over the continent. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, she had reached the Ling spirit level. She was indeed the youngest master on the continent; even the fairy of the earth could not perform it better than her.
Women were fond of being clean. Although she was very neat, she still felt a bit awkward because she hadn’t bathed in a month. There was a clear spring in front of her, so she would never miss this opportunity of course.
Walking to the pond, Murong Xiaorou gently took off her veil as well as her clothes so that her whole body slowly immersed in the water.
Suddenly, Chen Feng opened his eyes; some white airflow scattered. He stood up and had a look at the clothes on the sh.o.r.e. He smiled and came to the pond, quietly watching the tender body moving in the water.
Like a mermaid swimming through water, Murong Xiaorou looked at Chen Feng on the sh.o.r.e and felt quite surprised. Her face flushed and she sank into the water after glancing at him.
Chen Feng didn"t care too much. Although they had been strangers in the past, they had gradually opened their hearts to each other in the past days. Moreover, Chen Feng had made a new breakthrough during their month of cultivation and his mentality also changed.
It was the same for Murong Xiaorou. Although she had reached the Ling spirit level, she didn’t feel the slightest bit unreasonable and let everything go with her whole heart.
Chen Feng jumped into the water and slowly embraced her. After one month of cultivating and with such a beauty at his side, Chen Feng felt the world was quite wonderful.
After a period of romance in the water, they returned to the sh.o.r.e. Murong Xiaorou buried her head in his arms and said, "I feel you have made a breakthrough to reach the Ling sense level. The stalact.i.te was really precious since it was condensed for thousands of years. It can not only strengthen the body, but also nourish the soul. That was precisely why we could make such a breakthrough very smoothly."
"Well, the stalact.i.te can completely change our physical conditions. Even if we had absorbed it, it would not result in an unstable foundation. It’s really a precious treasure for our cultivation. And I found that once I had absorbed the power from the stalact.i.te, there was not only a breakthrough for me to reach the higher Ling level, but also the Unknown Martial Art inside me started to loosen gradually to reach a higher level,” Chen Feng said slowly.
Murong Xiaorou smiled and said, "This is good. I have heard a little bit about the Unknown Martial Art in Chen family. Are there any higher levels of it?"
"Well, in fact, the cultivation of the Unknown Martial Art has always been at the same level as my Ling level. But, after my Qihai acupoint was hurt, the Unknown Martial Art had been suspended for a long time without any progress in my cultivation. What I was practicing was a kind of external martial art known as the Overlord Fist Position. Although it’s also very powerful, it can only reach the Ling sense level.”
"What I am saying is that I accidentally got a book about the Unknown Martial Art. It’s so vast and boundless that I cannot find any clues about the cultivation for it. But this time, a new practice method suddenly appeared in my mind, which should be the follow-up of that martial art. I hardly had time to review it when I was attracted by you," Chen Feng said with a sly smile.
"Aha!" Murong Xiaorou giggled, then she stood up and said, "I have no interest in the Unknown Martial Art of your cultivation. Since you have absorbed the energy of the stalact.i.te now, try to have a good understanding of it since it will offer great help to you. I will just serve as your a.s.sistant here.”
Chen Feng nodded. He was also curious about what surprise the Unknown Martial Art had in store for him.
In an instant, Chen Feng once again entered the state of cultivation. His heart sank into his soul and an ethereal voice suddenly echoed in his mind:
"Natural law and the devil are interlaced with each other. All creatures will be traced back to the very beginning. In heaven, as well as the wheel of history, deep cultivation derives from the mind. The natural laws are also the devil’s formula from heaven to h.e.l.l.”
The sound echoed in his mind and then some mysterious words also appeared— the cultivation method of the Unknown Martial Art.
Chen Feng’s eyes slowly opened as a golden character appeared inside. He knew that the Unknown Martial Art he had been cultivating for years was named the "Heaven and Demon Art.” Chen Feng himself did not know what kind of practice it was, but he knew that it would be more powerful than any other martial arts on the continent.
Because, at this time, he finally knew that the fragment in his mind was actually the method for the second layer of cultivation.
The first level of cultivation was called refinement, which aimed to convert everything into his own vitality. The second layer was called the Qi transformation level, which was much more profound than the refinement. According to the description in the book, vitality was only the lowest level of energy although it was also the most important one, because if the cultivation level couldn’t be reached, the pract.i.tioners would never enter the next level.
The martial art pract.i.tioners practiced exercising their Qihai acupoints to absorb the Ling force and transform it into the Ling power. However, for the Heaven and Demon Art, the so-called Ling power was only a kind of blood energy. To enter the level of Qi transformation, they had to experience a refinement procedure to transform the power of the blood within their bodies into vitality.
What was vitality? Chen Feng knew nothing about it. However, he was deeply shocked by the omnipotence described in the book. It was certainly incomparable to the Ling spirit level because it reached far beyond the scope of martial art pract.i.tioners.
Chen Feng inhaled deeply and his breath suddenly changed dramatically. He murmured, "The process of cultivation is so long that I actually only stayed at the start-up stage, and have not even entered the threshold of cultivation."
Murong Xiaorou seemed to have felt his emotional changes, so she asked with great concern, "What’s going on?"
Chen Feng shook his head and said with a smile, "It"s okay, I’m just a little emotional. So what’s your plan?"
Murong Xiaorou was stunned and immediately replied, "I don"t know, I never thought about my future, but now I’ve suddenly made a breakthrough to reach the Ling spirit level. Since I met you, I realized everything has greatly changed. And it’s all because of you."
Chen Feng held his arms tightly and asked, “Do you regret it?”
“No, never.”
