Boom!
After an exchange of punches,
Su Bai landed, retreating three steps to dissipate the force.
Lin Feng also landed.
Thump, thump, thump, his footsteps retreated continuously.
Each step sank deep into the mud.
He retreated a full five steps!
Lin Feng calmed the churning Qi and Blood within his body.
He looked up at Su Bai, his expression solemn.
He had already Broken Through to Innate for over twenty years.
How vast was the accumulation of his Qi and Blood!
He had even vaguely touched the barrier of the next Realm.
Yet, he hadn't gained any advantage against Su Bai.
Although he had only used seventy percent of his strength,
looking at Su Bai's relaxed and comfortable demeanor,
it was clear she hadn't used her full strength either.
Su Bai also secretly sighed with emotion, as expected of an Innate Grandmaster who had caught her attention.
She had the System's attribute bonus.
Her Physique was strengthened fivefold!
Although she had just Broken Through to Innate,
the Dragon Elephant Body Tempering Art she Cultivated had already reached Perfection, and the power of ten Dragons and ten Elephants was amplified.
Its might was extremely terrifying.
Lin Feng slowly exhaled a breath.
"Good, let's continue!"
With that, he attacked again.
"Fishing for the Moon in the Water!"
Lin Feng specialized in palm techniques, mimicking a type of ape Yao Beast, with hands like whips, yet heavy and powerful.
A casual strike could easily shatter stone tablets.
Seeing Lin Feng attack again, Su Bai no longer held back.
She used her full strength.
This time, as she circulated her Cultivation Technique, there was a faint roar of Dragons and Elephants, causing Lin Feng's expression to momentarily falter.
The two instantly crossed paths.
Boom!
A huge roar resounded.
The collision of their outward-projected force created a strong gust of wind.
It even caused cracks to appear in the rocks where they clashed.
"Ah!"
Lin Feng cried out in pain.
As his body was sent flying, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
This made Su Bai pause for a moment.
She hadn't expected Lin Feng, with such vast Qi and Blood, to be unable to withstand her attack.
She quickly ran towards Lin Feng, who had landed.
"Elder Lin, are you alright?"
Hearing Su Bai's somewhat concerned voice,
Lin Feng didn't feel any negative emotions about being outmatched.
Instead, he repeatedly praised her.
"A hero emerges from the young, a hero emerges from the young!"
"I'm fine!"
Lin Feng shakily stood up.
His arms were numb, and at least two of his ribs were broken, but the injuries weren't fundamental.
Qi and Blood Martial Dao was indeed powerful.
These injuries on Lin Feng only made him cry out once when Su Bai first sent him flying.
Upon standing up again, he seemed as if nothing had happened.
Of course, it was also possible that Lin Feng was just enduring it.
He didn't want to lose Face in front of a younger person.
After this test,
Su Bai had gained Lin Feng's approval.
Lin Feng didn't say another word.
He immediately pulled Su Bai towards the Demon Hunting Association.
"Let's go, let's hurry back and record your Cultivation experience."
"Of course, I also want to share with you the method of Breaking Through to the next Realm."
At this moment, Flying Eagle ran over.
"Elder Lin, your injuries..."
"Hey! Why are you spouting nonsense? These minor injuries will heal on the way!"
Lin Feng directly interrupted Flying Eagle.
Then he looked at Su Bai.
Su Bai also wanted to know how to Cultivate after reaching Innate.
She didn't reject Lin Feng's good intentions.
"Alright, then let's go."
One must know, in the Immortal Realm, Body Refining required a large amount of Spirit Medicine just for getting Started, along with different Body Refining Materials to consume.
It also required drawing Spiritual Qi into the body.
The consumption was not ordinary.
However, in the Da Wu World, Cultivation only required strengthening the body in the early stages.
Then, consuming tonics and Yao Beast meat to enhance physical strength, and then Cultivating Qi and Blood was sufficient.
Although the consumption was also large,
it only required spending gold and silver.
In Su Bai's eyes, gold and silver were cheaper than Spirit Stones.
After Su Bai agreed, Lin Feng was also decisive.
"Without further ado, let's go now."
Thus, under Lin Feng's lead, Su Bai followed him to the headquarters of the Demon Hunting Association.
And during their journey,
Lin Feng also explained to Su Bai the method they used to Break Through to the next Realm.
That was to Cultivate a weapon-based technique, a fist and palm technique, and a leg and foot technique.
The three elements would merge into one to impact the next Realm.
Fist and palm techniques and leg and foot techniques were used to refine Qi and Blood; for those who already had sufficient Qi and Blood accumulation, this requirement was not necessary.
Speaking of this, Lin Feng thought highly of Su Bai.
Because the Cultivation Technique Su Bai Cultivated was a very powerful one, she certainly did not lack Qi and Blood.
As for Cultivating weapon-based techniques, it was to condense Martial Dao Will.
To merge Martial Dao Will with Qi and Blood.
When he mentioned this, Lin Feng even boasted a little.
Because he had practiced martial arts for many years, coupled with his excellent talent,
Lin Feng, with just one fist technique, had managed to accumulate enough Qi and Blood and Martial Dao Will!
He hadn't Broken Through yet.
He believed it was because as he aged, although his Qi and Blood remained at their Peak, he had lost the sharpness of his youth, causing his Martial Dao Will to lose its momentum.
Hearing this, a strange expression appeared on Su Bai's Face.
She felt that she could now use Divine Sense to fuse with Qi and Blood to impact the next Martial Dao Realm.
However, Su Bai didn't do that.
She would only Cultivate things that were part of a complete System.
She would not rashly Break Through to an unknown Realm.
Whether or not to pursue this Qi and Blood Martial Dao would have to wait until Su Bai went to the Demon Hunting Association and saw the Cultivation Technique notes of the Seniors before making a decision.
At that time, she would absorb various Cultivation Techniques within the Demon Hunting Association as reference.
Then, she would deduce based on the power of a Cultivator's Divine Sense.
If it was feasible, she would then proceed with the Breakthrough.
If not, she would turn around and go to the Immortal Realm to find two Body Refining Cultivation Techniques.
Although Body Refining Cultivation Techniques in the Immortal Realm consumed too many resources,
the Da Wu World had many Yao Beasts, so it might not be impossible for Su Bai to Cultivate successfully.
The journey took half a month.
Lin Feng came alone very quickly.
But he was injured on his way back!
Although Lin Feng said he was fine,
his speed eventually showed that the old man was being stubborn!
When Su Bai and Lin Feng rested during their journey,
Su Bai would pretend to sleep.
Then Lin Feng would groan, clutching his chest.
However, the old man didn't lie about one thing.
His recovery ability was indeed remarkable.
He only groaned for three days before he was roughly fine.
If it were an ordinary person, they would have to lie in bed for at least three months!
After Lin Feng brought Su Bai back to the Demon Hunting Association,
he also introduced her to several Innate Grandmasters in the association.
The Innate Grandmasters Su Bai met all had very vast Qi and Blood and were in excellent spirits.
Their difference from Lin Feng was not significant.
They were all stuck at the verge of Breakthrough.
Su Bai also learned that the Innate Grandmasters within the association were only a small portion.
Most Innate Grandmasters were in seclusion, seeking an opportunity for Breakthrough.
After Su Bai met with other Innate Grandmasters,
she was also observed like a monkey.
After all, Su Bai was truly very young.
These Innate Grandmasters, who had lived for at least fifty or sixty years, had never even heard of such a young Innate Grandmaster, let alone seen one.
Of course, most people were not interested in Su Bai, but only in whether Su Bai could Break Through to the next Realm.
So the onlookers encouraged Su Bai.
After telling her to Cultivate well, they all dispersed.
Lin Feng stroked his graying hair and said to Su Bai:
"Hey, the people here are all martial arts fanatics, don't take offense."
"It's alright, Elder Lin."
Afterward, Lin Feng took Su Bai to familiarize herself with the core of the Demon Hunting Association.
Then he led her to the Scripture Pavilion.
Su Bai looked at the entire pavilion in front of her, which contained the countless experiences and Cultivation Techniques of Innate Grandmasters accumulated by the Demon Hunting Association over a thousand years.
"Come, you also write down your Cultivation insights and understandings, and then you can read whatever you want."
"Remember, do not damage them."
Lin Feng stayed by Su Bai's side.
He was acting as a companion, but also as a supervisor.
After all, the accumulated knowledge of the Demon Hunting Association was truly very important.
