Heavenly Roc Sacred Body

Chapter 346 Heavenly Roc Sacred Body

After saying this, Xu Feng shook his head slightly, suppressing his pride.

The master of the withered tree peak is actually quite strong, especially since the true form of the Soul-Devouring Ancient Tree would probably require some effort to change if it were in a different environment.

But here, in this mountain cave, his wood-elemental abilities were somewhat suppressed.

More importantly, Xu Feng had anticipated his arrival, taking advantage of his unpreparedness and the disparity in strength, thus winning easily.

Of course, Xu Feng did not underestimate his own combat strength.

After all, although he used many methods just now, he did not use his full strength. He was more focused on understanding the differences between the various methods.

"However—the trouble isn't over yet."

Xu Feng looked out of the cave.

The master of the withered tree peak died here, and Little Azure Sky Mountain will find out sooner or later.

It's only a matter of time before we find the scene.

"We must clean up the scene properly; we can't afford to be exposed this time." Xu Feng immediately began to carefully clean up the battlefield.

After doing all this, Xu Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Next—it's time to go to our real destination."

He leaped and headed straight for the former territory of the fox clan.

As for the potential upheaval caused by the death of the Master of the Deadwood Peak—a cold glint flashed in Xu Feng's eyes.

"When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it."

at the same time.

Xiaoqingqiong Mountain, Tianshu Peak.

A "life-bound soul lamp" placed in the peak master's secret chamber suddenly went out with a "poof".

The guard was stunned for a moment, then turned pale and scrambled toward the Tian Shu Hall.

"Something terrible has happened! The Soul Lamp of the Deadwood Peak Master has gone out!!"

The news spread like wildfire throughout the entire mountain gate.

Envoys Ling Feng and You Quan arrived at the Soul Lamp Hall on Tian Shu Peak as soon as possible. Looking at the Soul Lamp, which had completely dimmed, their faces were ashen.

Subsequently, the two summoned many peak masters to the Deadwood Peak, and finally opened the secret chamber, only to find it completely empty.

"Another peak master has fallen—"

The sound from the secluded spring was icy cold.

"First it was Jin Yuyi, and now it's Kumu—who exactly is targeting my Little Azure Sky Mountain?"

Envoy Ling Feng remained silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "In just half a year, our mountain has lost many experts. This cannot but raise suspicions."

Youquan suddenly turned to look at the Qingxuan Peak Master beside him: "Jinmu—where are you now?"

"It is reported that he left the mountain and headed northwest, supposedly to investigate the place where Jin Yuyi fell and to find a treasure land for cultivation."

Peak Master Qingxuan was startled and reported it.

Hongzhi and Lei Fei, the peak master of Lei Jue Peak, raised their eyebrows at the same time.

Why would the envoy ask about a newly promoted tenth peak master when a dead tree has died?

Could it be that they suspect Jinmu killed the Master of Kumu Peak?

"Northwest—" A glint flashed in Youquan's eyes.

"What does Junior Brother mean—" Ling Feng looked at him.

Youquan did not answer, but slowly closed his eyes and began to calculate.

A moment later, he opened his eyes, a complex expression flashing in them.

"The secrets of heaven are shrouded in chaos and difficult to discern."

"But the death of the withered tree—is probably inseparable from the metal tree."

Ling Feng's expression changed: "Jin Mu? He has the ability to kill Ku Mu?"

Youquan shook his head: "His strength has improved too quickly, I can't say for sure."

Ling Feng frowned and said, "Then we should do it now—"

"Wait," Youquan said coldly, "wait until Jinmu comes back and see how he explains himself."

The other three peak masters who followed along had different expressions, and it was unclear what they were thinking.

One day later.

Outside the new territory of the Fox Clan.

Xu Feng only waited a short while before Hu Lang greeted him with a beaming smile.

Behind him were several important figures from the fox clan.

"Brother Xu Feng, you've finally arrived, hahaha."

We haven't invited you to visit since our clan moved here, so we'll definitely stay a few more days this time!

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Mr. Hu, you're too kind. I've come here to ask you for a favor."

Then, Xu Feng explained his purpose as he walked with the others deeper into the fox clan's territory.

Hu Lang immediately laughed and said, "Does this require the clan leader's approval?"

I'm in charge. All thirty-six caves in the holy site, especially the nine caves at the top of the mountain, are yours to use as you please.

However—the winds at the summit are too strong. I suggest you don't go too hard at the beginning; start from the foot of the mountain and gradually ascend.

"Thank you very much, Elder Hu and everyone. I actually hope that the gale is as strong as possible." Xu Feng's eyes flashed with anticipation.

Hu Lang stopped trying to persuade him and handed over a dark blue token: "This is my Fox Clan's sacred token. Only with this token can you enter the Sacred Mountain. But be very careful, that place is now occupied by the Hidden Wolf Clan."

"Thank you. I will try to keep a low profile. Also, please keep this a secret for me."

Xu Feng accepted the token and thanked him solemnly.

Hu Lang nodded slightly: "I understand. Oh, by the way, this is something sent from Da Xia. They said they'd give it to you when they see you."

Xu Feng took the new storage device from Hu Lang and smiled slightly: "Okay, thank you."

A thought flickered in his mind: the "Heavenly Roc Dragon-Slaying Technique" manual translated by Professor Li must have arrived.

After receiving the token, Xu Feng didn't delay any longer. He transformed into a pale golden streak of light and headed towards Thousand Caves Mountain, the old territory of the Fox Clan, which was known as the "Holy Mountain".

Tibetan wolf pack —

About four hours later, Xu Feng carefully traversed the Kunlun Mountains and finally arrived at the snow area.

A majestic, precipitous, and cloud-shrouded solitary peak came into his view.

The mountain peaks soar into the clouds, and the mountain body is densely covered with holes of different sizes, numbering in the hundreds at a rough glance.

This is the sacred land of the fox clan—Mount Thousand Caves.

Even before getting close, one could hear the howling wind coming from those cave entrances; it was the sound of the gale passing through the caves.

At the foot of the mountain, dozens of simple camps were set up, and wolf-shaped figures could be vaguely seen moving among them.

This place has now clearly become the settlement of the Tibetan wolf tribe.

Xu Feng landed in the forest without concealing his presence and swaggered towards the center of the camp.

"Halt! Who dares to trespass on the territory of my Hidden Wolf Clan?!"

A sharp shout rang out.

Several fierce-looking wolf warriors, standing upright, blocked the way, their eyes flashing with vigilance and hostility.

Xu Feng calmly swept his gaze over them and said indifferently, "I am Jin Mu, the tenth peak master of Little Azure Sky Mountain. Tell your leader to come out and see me."

"presumptuous!"

The lead Tibetan wolf warrior roared angrily.

"Our clan chief is in seclusion. How can you expect to see him so easily? State your name, or else..."

boom!

A powerful aura, as majestic as a mountain and as sharp as a blade, suddenly erupted from Xu Feng!

He merely snorted coldly, and the three Tibetan wolf warriors were struck as if by a heavy blow. They groaned and staggered back several steps, their faces turning deathly pale instantly.

A look of horror flashed in their eyes.

This aura—a Limit Lord?!

And not just any ordinary Limit Lord!

That heavy sense of oppression was like facing a mountain that was about to collapse!

Swish!

Before the three wolves could speak, a figure shot out from the camp.

Its aura was powerful, it stood three zhang tall, and its body was covered with dark silver fur. It landed heavily in front of Xu Feng.

The ground cracked instantly, and dust flew everywhere.

This is a powerful member of the Tibetan Wolf Clan, at the level of a high-ranking lord.

Judging from his aura, he should be the chieftain or an elder of the Tibetan Wolf Clan.

"Who goes there? State your name!"

The dark silver giant wolf stared intently at Xu Feng with its copper bell-like eyes, its fangs bared, exuding a chilling killing intent.

Xu Feng remained expressionless and slowly uttered two words: "Jinmu".

Metal and Wood?

A hint of doubt flashed in the dark silver giant wolf's eyes.

This name—does it sound familiar?

A warrior from the Tibetan Wolf Clan beside him quickly stepped forward and whispered a few words in the Dark Silver Giant Wolf's ear.

The Dark Silver Giant Wolf's pupils suddenly contracted!

"You are—Jin Mu, the tenth peak master of Little Azure Sky Mountain?!"

His voice already carried a hint of surprise and apprehension.

The Tenth Peak Master of Little Green Sky Mountain!

That's a big shot who's ranked high in the entire Kunlun Mountains region!

Moreover, it is rumored that this Golden Roc Peak Master's strength is unfathomable, and he once defeated a Limit Lord with a single punch.

How could such a person suddenly appear on the territory of a small clan like theirs?

"So you are Peak Master Jinpeng, my apologies for not recognizing you."

However, this mountain has been taken over by our clan, and the clan chief has ordered that no one is allowed to enter without permission.

"If the Peak Master wishes to borrow this land for cultivation, please first pay your respects to my clan patriarch and obtain permission."

This Tibetan wolf tribe member is clearly not very good at speaking.

Xu Feng frowned slightly as soon as he opened his mouth.

Paying respects to Chief Zanglang?

waste time.

He doesn't have that patience.

"I have limited time."

Xu Feng's voice turned cold, and a sharp aura slowly rose from his body: "I will enter this mountain today. Make way, or—I will clear the way myself."

I'll give you the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before you leave this place with your people.

"After an incense stick has burned, don't blame me for showing no mercy."

Upon hearing this...

The Dark Silver Giant Wolf's expression instantly turned extremely ugly.

"Peak Master Jinmu, although you are the tenth peak master, this land was occupied by my Canglang clan first. How can you just give it up like that?!"

His voice was low and deep, filled with suppressed anger.

"Furthermore, my Hidden Wolf Clan is a tribe under the Silver Moon Wolf King, and we have some connection with your clan. Your domineering behavior is probably inappropriate, isn't it?"

"The Silver Moon Wolf King?" Xu Feng raised an eyebrow.

Unexpectedly, the Tibetan Wolf Clan has managed to establish this connection.

But so what?

"I will naturally give face to the Silver Moon Wolf King."

Xu Feng said calmly.

The Dark Silver Giant Wolf's expression softened slightly, and it was about to say something.

But Xu Feng continued, "That's why I'm giving you one incense stick's time to leave."

If it were any other race, the ground would already be littered with corpses.

The Dark Silver Giant Wolf's face instantly turned ashen!

"Jinmu! Don't push your luck! I respect you as the peak master of Xiaoqingqiong Mountain, but this is the territory of my Canglang Clan!"

"Your forceful entry is utterly disrespectful to our people!"

He roared, and the dark silver hairs all over his body stood on end, his violent blood and qi erupted!

However, before he could react...

"Noisy."

Xu Feng snorted coldly, and his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.

next moment.

He appeared before the wolf chieftain, casually reaching out with his right hand to grab the man's neck as if he were catching a chick, lifting him up completely!

"you!"

The wolf chieftain was both shocked and enraged. He struggled frantically, his blood and energy surging as he tried to break free.

However, his power as a high-level lord was like an ant trying to shake a tree in Xu Feng's hands, completely unmoved!

Feeling fear, the wolf chieftain frantically kicked and punched Xu Feng.

"Stubborn and obstinate."

Xu Feng shook his head slightly, only raising his left hand to make a fist.

Then, he casually threw a punch.

There was no dazzling light, no ferocious momentum.

There was only a single, exquisitely refined, pale golden fist imprint that seemed capable of piercing through mountains.

Click!

A clear cracking sound rang out!

"Awooo—!!!"

The dark silver giant wolf let out a shrill scream, and violent power surged into its body through its claws, shaking its internal organs as if they had shifted, causing it to spit out blood.

Its massive body flew backward like a tattered sack, crashing heavily into the camp behind it!

Boom!

The camp collapsed, and smoke and dust rose everywhere.

The entire room fell silent.

All the Tibetan wolf warriors stared wide-eyed at the scene in disbelief.

"Go and tell your clan chief."

Xu Feng stood with his hands behind his back, his voice calm yet carrying an undeniable authority: "I've borrowed this mountain. If anyone objects—tell him to come find me himself."

Having said that, he ignored the wolf warriors and transformed into a golden light, flying straight towards the summit of the sacred mountain.

Along the way, some powerful members of the Tibetan Wolf Clan tried to stop him, but after sensing the aura emanating from Xu Feng, they wisely chose to retreat.

Soon, Xu Feng arrived at the mountainside of the sacred mountain.

The wind here was quite strong, making clothes flutter loudly.

But Xu Feng didn't care and continued upwards.

Amidst the smoke and dust, the Dark Silver Giant Wolf was lifted up by a giant wolf with white fur on its head.

Seeing his body covered in blood on one side, the giant wolf with a tuft of white fur on its head was filled with horror and fear.

He is the chieftain of this Tibetan wolf tribe.

That punch just now made him fully understand the difference in strength between the two sides.

Such an existence is simply not something the Hidden Wolf Clan can afford to provoke!

"I—we're retreating!"

The white-haired giant wolf gritted its teeth and squeezed out a few words.

"Chieftain!"

Some Tibetan wolf warriors were unwilling to accept this.

"Shut up!"

The white-haired giant wolf roared.

"Everyone, pack your things immediately and evacuate from Thousand Caves Mountain!"

Help the Grand Elder away, and hurry to Mount Shenghe to beg the Holy Maiden for help.

He looked at Xu Feng's back with deep apprehension in his eyes.

"Clan leader, should we report him to Ancestor Silver Moon?!" someone asked in a low voice.

"Sue you my foot!" The white-haired wolf slapped his son on the head. "You want to kill our ancestor?"

He said with a look of fear, "Retreat!!"

The higher you go in Qianku Mountain, the stronger the wind becomes.

Starting from the mountainside, the gale was no longer a simple airflow, but transformed into visible pale blue wind blades that howled and darted through the air.

Xu Feng tried a few holes, but none of them met his requirements.

So he strode towards the top of the mountain.

Soon, nine dark cave entrances came into view, arranged in a "品" shape on the mountaintop platform.

The six openings below have slight differences in elevation, resulting in a slightly weaker wind.

Upon closer inspection, the three wind tunnels above also show differences in height, with stronger winds.

The strongest one is the wind tunnel at the very top, from which more than just a simple gale is spewing out.

Instead—a dark blue storm!

Each wind blade was several meters long, carrying a shrill whistling sound that tore through the void, weaving together a net of destruction in the air.

The platform floor is covered with deep cuts, all caused by the constant cutting from these wind blades over the years.

"This level of intensity—"

Xu Feng felt the terrifying, sharp aura and was shocked.

This is the true power of the gale.

"This is it!"

What he wanted was this kind of extreme tempering environment!

Without hesitation, Xu Feng walked directly to the bottom, which was also the largest ninth cave entrance.

Seeing that no one was around, Xu Feng raised his hand and placed the Star Disc in a place away from the cave entrance where the wind was weaker to cover the area.

Then, he completely removed the illusion charm and all disguises, and returned to human form.

He then swayed and activated the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique, suddenly raising his body height.

The closer you get to the cave entrance, the stronger the wind pressure.

When Xu Feng stood at the cave entrance, the strong wind had almost instantly blown away all the hair on his body!

But he took a step forward and resolutely walked into the storm.

boom-!!!

In an instant, Xu Feng was completely engulfed by the blue storm!

Countless wind blades sliced ​​through his body, producing a piercing metallic clang.

Countless fine blood lines immediately appeared on Xu Feng's skin.

pain!

Indescribable, excruciating pain!

But he gritted his teeth and began to recall the contents of "The Heavenly Roc Fights the Dragon".

At the same time, within his inner world, a drop of cyan blood slowly secreted from the divine tree and appeared in Xu Feng's dantian.

This drop of blood is a special drop of blood extracted from Jin Yuyi by the Divine Tree.

Its aura is completely different from Jin Yuyi's, or rather, it does not contain any aura at all.

There is only one pure "wind attribute" power.

If Xu Feng's prediction is correct, this should be the main reason why Jin Yuyi was able to master the Heavenly Roc Dragon-Slaying Technique so quickly.

This is most likely a drop of "Tianpeng True Blood".

With this drop of blood, and with the help of the divine tree, Xu Feng will find it much easier to cultivate this secret technique.

"call!"

boom!

As a surge of vital energy suddenly circulated, wisps of wind were drawn into his body, traveling along specific routes to temper every inch of his flesh, bones, and meridians.

pain!

This pain is ten or even a hundred times more intense than a strong wind blowing on your face!

But he remained steadfast like a stubborn rock in a storm, unmoved by the fierce winds.

Time passed slowly amidst the pain.

One day, two days, three days —

Xu Feng stood in the center of the Gale Cave as if in a meditative state, enduring the endless cutting of wind blades.

His body was repeatedly torn apart, only to heal itself time and again thanks to the powerful regenerative abilities and the effects of the medicine.

Four full days later.

【Tianpeng Dragon-Slaying Technique - Beginner (20/200)】

Xu Feng let out a long breath and slowly retreated from the Gale Cave.

Touching his smooth scalp, he was somewhat speechless: "This... I've gone bald, but I've also become stronger?"

After making a joke, he sat down to rest.

The endless gale blew, leaving his body covered in scabs that kept falling off and regrowing.

After taking out a healing potion and swallowing it, Xu Feng silently circulated the Three Pure Ones Boundless Technique.

Soon, the scab fell off again, revealing his smooth skin.

The newly formed flesh and blood, tempered by the fierce wind, became more resilient and gleamed with a faint metallic luster.

What's even more amazing is that in his "Mountain Wind Falling Star" technique, the "wind" element is undergoing a qualitative change.

The previous lightness and speed have gradually been incorporated into an extreme sharpness and a domineering force that tears everything apart.

After resting for a while, Xu Feng stepped into the cave again.

At the summit of Qianku Mountain, the fierce wind howls eternally.

Ninth hole, eighth hole, seventh hole —

With each cave they ascended, the intensity of the gale increased several times over.

The wind blade gradually changed from its initial light blue color to a deep cyan-black.

Each one contained a sharpness sufficient to tear apart the protective aura of an ordinary Limit Lord.

Xu Feng's cultivation method was extremely brutal—

He placed himself directly in the most violent core area of ​​the gale, abandoning all protection and relying solely on his physical body to withstand it!

Countless wind blades, like billions of invisible sharp blades, continuously cut and polished every inch of his skin, bones, and internal organs.

Severe pain has become the norm.

The skin was repeatedly slashed, and the blood was dried by the strong wind before it could flow out, revealing the newly grown flesh underneath, which shimmered with a faint golden light.

Under the hammering of wind pressure, the bones groaned in unbearable strain, yet they became denser and harder with each repair.

The meridians are washed and widened by the violent wind-attribute energy, and the speed and carrying capacity of blood and qi circulation increase day by day.

March flew by.

Xu Feng stood like a lifeless stone statue at the heart of the gale-force winds and storms of the seventh cave.

Right now, he's checking his proficiency level.

[Tianpeng Dragon-Slaying Technique - Mastery (7/800)]

He showed no joy, but calmly wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth caused by the tremors of his internal organs, walked out of the wind tunnel, took out a bottle of specially made "Golden Marrow Jade Liquid" and drank it.

This is a secret healing medicine from Little Azure Sky Mountain, and its effects are even better than the God of War-level healing potions of Great Xia.

The cool medicinal liquid entered the stomach, transforming into a warm and soothing energy that flowed throughout the body, rapidly repairing the body riddled with wounds.

Xu Feng closed his eyes and looked inward.

The most noticeable change was in his limbs.

Deep within the flesh and blood of the arms and legs, countless fine golden threads, as thin as hair, intertwine to form a net, like natural golden patterns, containing terrifying power and resilience.

His limbs were crystal clear, like the finest mutton fat jade, yet harder than black iron.

Within the bone marrow, golden marrow fluid flowed slowly, radiating vibrant life.

This is the "Golden Skin and Jade Bones" from ancient martial arts legends!

only.

At this time, Xu Feng's "golden skin and jade bones" were still in their infancy.

The gold threads and jade bones only covered the limbs; the torso and head had not yet begun to transform.

Even so, his physical strength has undergone tremendous changes.

"With my current physical strength, even without using any special techniques, I could probably fight against an ordinary first-tier Star God with just my fists and feet."

""

Xu Feng clenched his fist and nodded in satisfaction.

His strength has reached the limit of the God of War realm, 1000 tons.

Without reaching the Star God Realm, he would be unable to advance further in terms of power.

The limit of the ultimate warrior is both a powerful description and a "bottleneck".

Only by breaking limits can one become a "god".

"The Heavenly Roc Dragon-Slaying Technique is divided into nine levels."

Xu Feng recalled the contents of the manual: "The first three levels temper the limbs and lay the foundation for fighting dragons."

""

"Third stage, tempering the body and internal organs, condensing the body to fight the dragon."

2

"The last three stages temper the mind and sea of ​​consciousness, ultimately condensing the true intent of fighting dragons," transforming into an ancient celestial roc to battle true dragons!

Only after achieving perfection in all nine levels can one step into the realm of Star God.

He is currently at the peak of the third level and is about to step into the fourth level.

"Let's test its power."

boom!

Xu Feng's blood and energy instantly boiled!

Pale golden blood energy gushed out from his orifices, and faintly condensed into a pair of blurry golden wing phantoms behind him!

With wings spread, they blot out the sky!

A terrifying pressure, seemingly from the primordial era, suddenly descended upon Hai!

That's not the "power" of the Star God Realm, nor the "prestige" of a domain.

Rather, it is a more primal and pure form of suppression—bloodline and will!

The bloodline pressure belonging to the ancient sky overlords, the Tianpeng clan—the Tianpeng Sacred Body!

"roar-!!!"

Xu Feng couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar!

The howling sound was like the cry of a roc, piercing through gold and splitting rocks, and briefly suppressed the fierce wind in the seventh cave!

Rocks fell from the cave walls with a soft rustling sound, and the entire Thousand Caves Mountain seemed to tremble slightly!

The whistling sound lasted for a full ten breaths before slowly subsiding.

The golden winged phantoms behind Xu Feng also vanished.

"This is... the Heavenly Roc Sacred Body?!"

Although it is only a preliminary activation, the duration is extremely short, and the consumption is enormous.

But that domineering aura that transcends all things, that resolute determination to tear apart all obstacles, that will to fight against heaven and earth, and that powerful state of vital energy—

It stirred his heart!
