The Sixth Realm of the Upper Heaven Energy Introduction Technique wasn't much to speak of among the many senior brothers and sisters.
But among the newly initiated disciples, it was definitely the highest!
To cultivate to the Sixth Realm of the Energy Introduction Skill in just four months would be practically impossible without a top-grade Spirit Root of utmost purity.
Quite a few newly initiated disciples were taken aback. Wang Mu had no Spirit Root; many had deduced this during the initial assessment. Yet his cultivation progressed so swiftly—it was quite perplexing.
The only explanation they could think of was that he was taking Elixirs or had consumed some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. However, without a Spirit Root, the conversion rate for absorbing Spiritual Energy from Elixirs and cultivating it into Spiritual Power was extremely low, not even matching the normal cultivation speed of disciples with Mixed Spirit Roots.
Yet his realm was so high...
No one could understand.
Such pure Spiritual Power.
The Eldest Senior Brother, his expression typically arrogant, showed a hint of surprise in his eyes. He sensed it more clearly.
At this moment, Wang Mu's Spiritual Power fluctuations were extremely pure, as if devoid of any impurities. It was so pure it seemed he hadn't consumed any Elixirs for cultivation. Even normal cultivation would hardly yield such pure Spiritual Power...
This kid is interesting. Within four months of joining, he reached the Sixth Realm of the Upper Heaven Energy Introduction Technique. This talent, it's only slightly inferior to mine back in the day, right?
The Eldest Senior Brother was extremely perplexed.
Yet, curiously, Wang Mu hadn't cultivated any Spells or Sword techniques.
Just as the Eldest Senior Brother was pondering the possibilities, Wang Mu charged directly at him in the next instant!
He was fast! Fast enough to rival an Escape Technique!
For a moment, no one could even catch his shadow before Wang Mu rushed in front of the Eldest Senior Brother.
He turned sideways into a bow stance, his arm bent like a bow, his fist like a meteor! A massively curved hook punch blasted towards the Eldest Senior Brother! A powerful, almost substantial, sense of force pressed down on him!
BOOM!
An explosive hurricane of Spiritual Energy erupted and spread out!
The two figures separated simultaneously.
On one side was the Eldest Senior Brother, surrounded by a faint shield of Spiritual Energy. The wooden sword he held defensively was already shattered, only its hilt remaining intact. On the other side was Wang Mu, his fist glowing red, his aura extraordinarily solid.
Everyone was dumbstruck.
The Eldest Senior Brother had been knocked far outside the designated circle—a single punch had sent him flying!
The Eldest Senior Brother looked shocked. "Body Cultivation?" he exclaimed. "You're a Body Cultivator? Good heavens! No wonder you don't know any Sword techniques or Spells! Our Sword Sect has actually been hiding a Body Cultivator. Hahaha... Interesting!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the Eldest Senior Brother fiercely gripped and twisted the hilt of his sword. The Sword technique manifested at his will.
"Sky Void Sword!"
From the broken wooden sword, a Light Sword condensed from Spiritual Power instantly sprouted and flew out.
The shattered pieces of the blade on the ground sprang up, suspended in mid-air, shimmering with light as they transformed into countless sword edges. The Eldest Senior Brother stood his ground, a powerful Sword Intent emanating from his body. At this moment, he was like an unsheathed Divine Sword, its edge revealed.
Meanwhile, the wooden sword shot out, fast as a streak of silver lightning, accompanied by countless blades, all heading towards Wang Mu. The grandiose Sword Intent, like a surging river, swiftly sealed off the space around him.
The shattered blades in mid-air merged. In an instant, the broken wooden sword was restored to its original state and slashed down mightily.
Wang Mu did not dodge, still unhesitatingly meeting the slash with a punch. Accompanied by a roaring shockwave, the wooden sword was once again reduced to splinters. Yet, defying common sense, the shattered remnants merged again in mid-air.
Wang Mu glanced at a bloodstain on his fist. My defenses were breached. He thought. Truly worthy of being the Sword Sect's former chief senior brother! Spiritual Power circulated through him, rapidly erasing the bloodstain.
BANG, BANG, BANG...
What followed was an endless onslaught of sword images filling the sky. The Eldest Senior Brother remained standing in place; Wang Mu could no longer get close to him.
That wooden sword, seemingly as fragile as thin paper, would instantly restore itself.
In less than ten breaths, the two had exchanged more than a dozen blows. Wang Mu felt increasingly spirited as he fought. His Spiritual Power and physical stamina were draining rapidly, yet for some reason, his strength grew continuously...
The Eldest Senior Brother remained as immovable as a mountain, but his expression grew increasingly solemn. This continued until the very end.
Wang Mu felt the Spiritual Power in his three Spiritual Acupoints nearing depletion, and his physical stamina was also waning. Yet, his strength seemed to have reached a peak.
He threw a punch.
This time, the seemingly omnipresent wooden sword could no longer restore itself, shattering into debris.
Could it be... this is the hidden ability of the Hundred Refinement Body Technique when cultivated to one hundred layers?
Wang Mu took a deep breath.
As the fight progressed, every part of his body, from his tendons and bones to his organs and Blood Marrow, seemed to operate at its utmost limit. His strength, too, reached its pinnacle.
The longer the battle, the lower my physical and Spiritual Energy, the stronger my strength? Wang Mu paused, no longer moving. The more I fight, the stronger I become, and I'm at my strongest when I'm injured, right?
He gained a new insight into the Hundred Refinement Body Technique.
This Cultivation Technique was indeed miraculous, possessing hidden potential when fully cultivated.
This was by far the most exhilarating fight Wang Mu had ever had. Without such an exhilarating fight, he might never have discovered the hidden abilities of the Hundred Refinement Body Technique.
The surroundings, however, were utterly silent.
Everyone watched in stunned silence.
A disciple at the Sixth Realm of the Energy Introduction Skill had actually fought the Eldest Senior Brother, who was in the Qi Refining Realm, to a standstill! And the Eldest Senior Brother's Sword techniques were obviously quite profound, each move immensely powerful. Yet Wang Mu had relied solely on his fists...
Wasn't he incredibly strong?
The Eldest Senior Brother appeared somewhat silent. Compared to the breathless and depleted Wang Mu, his own energy consumption had actually been quite minimal.
