In the forest behind the Martial Extreme Martial School, birds chirped and the fragrance of flowers permeated the air.
The sky was a clear blue, and the forest was covered in lush foliage. The fresh air refreshed the mind. Standing in this place filled with vitality, the little lightning snakes in Du Lei's sea of consciousness began to move, occasionally sticking out half of their small heads, then shyly retracting it.
For some unknown reason, ever since the argument between Du Lei and the ghost head, this little fellow had been hiding within his sea of consciousness and not showing up. This caused Du Lei to be extremely traumatized.
"If you want to use your soul, you must first have a strong mental energy. You are a beginner, I don't require you to be as strong as me. You should first comprehend and absorb the Spiritual Qi that is produced by nature in the outside world." If your spirit energy is sufficient, you can activate your soul. " Elder Gui did not forget to praise himself as he explained.
Duré couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to this. He looked around as the afternoon sun shone down on the trees, the earth, the mountains, and the gurgling water in front of his feet. All of them seemed to have a trace of intelligence. He took a deep breath of cool air and closed his eyes. His heart was like still water, quietly feeling everything around him.
He heard the gurgling of the water beside him, felt the gentleness of the breeze as it blew across the valley, and wondered if the rustling of the trees on the other side of the river were telling of some mystery. The sky was blue and the water was green. Every product of nature in this world bloomed with a unique color.
Rivers and rivers, mountains and rivers, the sky … All living things have a spirit, existing in the world, nurturing a myriad of ecological nature.
Spirit of Nature: Spirit!
"Huff …"
An indescribable energy instantly entered Du Lei's sea of consciousness and was rapidly refined. After absorbing this spiritual energy, the small thunder snake joyfully cried out and twisted its body. It wiggled non-stop. Its body was not only growing, but even its sea of consciousness had become tougher by it. Du Lei could feel that his mind had become increasingly empty. Although this feeling was not too strong, it was still real.
Gradually, Du Lei sat cross-legged on the dirt ground beside the stream like a monk meditating, not moving at all. His breathing was long and steady, and the rhythm was clear. As for a wisp of spirit energy that was being breathed out by Du Lei, his sea of consciousness became more and more solid.
Seeing that Du Lei was gradually entering a better state, the ghost head's mouth twitched. It seems that this kid's talent isn't bad.
Just like this, an afternoon quietly passed by. When Du Lei opened his eyes, the setting sun in the horizon had already dyed half of the sky red. It was about to set with the last of the afterglow.
At this time, Duré once again sensed his surroundings and realised that everything had become clear, his vision seemed to have become clearer, the chirping of birds and the gurgling of streams could also be heard slightly. Now that he was thinking about something, he felt that his mind was working much faster than usual.
This feeling was very comfortable.
The ghost head's voice sounded at the right time, "Use all the spiritual energy you absorbed this afternoon to activate your spirit once. Now focus your will on your sea of consciousness, and use your will to draw upon the power of thunder and lightning, and focus it on your four limbs to attack and kill. "
After listening to the ghost head's teachings, Du Lei swallowed his saliva and concentrated his thoughts into his mind, all of his thoughts focused on the lightning serpent. Suddenly, the lightning serpent sent out a black light, and with Du Lei's consciousness, it climbed up to his right arm.
Just at that moment, Du Lei rushed forward and threw a punch towards a large tree that had a person hugging it.
As soon as Duré's right fist came into contact with the tree trunk, the wooden splinters had already exploded. Duré even felt as if his right fist was about to break the tree trunk just by touching the tree bark. Two black threads of lightning flashed through the gap in the tree trunk and disappeared.
"This …"
Du Lei didn't expect that just by twitching a little bit of power in his soul, he would already possess such terrifying power.
However, in the next moment, Du Lei felt a tearing pain in his head, and an intense feeling of weakness spread throughout his body, almost causing him to faint.
The soul itself was extremely strong and spiritual, which meant that it had to be consumed a lot. The spiritual energy that Du Lei had absorbed in the entire afternoon was completely used up. However, no matter what, Du Lei's sea of consciousness had been forged, and he had a life-saving trump card!
Looking at Du Lei's pondering expression, the ghost head consoled, "There's no need to worry. There's a process of forging Spirit Power, this is only the attacking power of the soul. Although I don't know much about it, it has two characteristics, Devour and Heal! As long as you continue to work hard and your cultivation is a hundred times faster than others, it would be as easy as flipping his hand to bring out the full power of this soul in the future. "
Du Lei nodded meaningfully. "I've already said it before, why does a certain someone covet this soul? So it turns out to be so powerful. If I'm able to mature in the future, you'll definitely benefit."
The ghost head snappily snorted, "The soul is the most precious treasure in the world, it needs a lot of energy to devour. I am looking forward to the day when you will be able to achieve great things, as long as I don't die of old age."
"Oh right, you caused a ruckus at the Spring Dragon Gate today, and I can feel a strong resentment, so I guess those people will not rest. The best way to protect themselves is to increase their strength, then we will start training the Wind Lightning Leg tonight."
After hearing Elder Song's words, Du Lei's heart became heavier, and he silently nodded in agreement.
Because the residential area for the outer sect disciples was already full, even if Du Lei became an outer sect disciple, he had no choice but to live in the small grass hut that was dozens of square meters.
At night, the cicadas chirped, and muffled sounds of wind could be heard from within the small courtyard. Du Lei's legs were like lightning, and his sweat flowed like rain as he practiced every day.
Under Elder Ghost's guidance, Du Lei advanced at an incredible speed, taking the essence of the Wind Thunder Leg out step by step.
The legs of wind and thunder required four truths: leg tempering for electricity! He had turned the bone into a blade! It was as fast as a hurricane! Thunderous!
He would use his muscles as lightning and his leg bones as a blade to temper his body. If he could do this, it could be considered to be the small success stage of the Wind Thunder Leg, and if he wanted to reach the large success stage, the last two chants of the Art of Truth would be extremely important.
Quick, his legs were as fast as the wind, coming and going without a trace, making it impossible for the enemy to see through him or see through him.
Explosive! Combined with the berserk characteristics of the thunder, he would be able to anger the thunder and fire with a single move!
However, in Elder Ghost's comprehension, the highest realm of the Wind Thunder Leg was the combination of form and intent.
Form: Kick, hook, kick, kick, chop, sweep, stab, tap, and strike. All of the killing moves were fused together, forming smooth movements between each attack. Attack and defense were at the same time, each move was ever-changing, as fast as lightning.
And what was the meaning? What did lightning represent? Crazy! Anger! Explode! The courage, the willpower, to go forward and fight, to live unless you were dead!
The combination of Xing Yi Martial Art and Xing Yi was the pinnacle of the realm!
Du Lei practiced every day. At first, his legs could only be touched by a slight electric arc, but following his daily training, which was accompanied by sweat that flowed like rain, he continuously improved.
If Du Lei's true qi was ten times stronger, then this lightning would contain its power. If the originally glaring lightning turned into a deep blue color, then its power would be even stronger.
Time flew by and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
In the dark night, under the bright and full moon, Du Lei dashed through the forest, facing the silver moonlight and the shadow of the tree. Every step he took was like an iron nail, but every step he took was as light as the wind, like a phantom.
His figure was agile as he repeatedly attacked. All of a sudden, he threw a side kick and kicked continuously. His body twisted and turned, causing his legs to be stained with electricity. Every hit was accompanied by the sound of muffled thunder. These two legs were like Duré's weapon, his blade. His sword moved as it pleased, slashing out with the sword as the wind and lightning flashed, emitting an awe-inspiring might.
Suddenly, Du Lei broke a tree trunk with a kick. His body was as close to the tree as a sly rabbit. He rotated his leg and cut off five trees in a row. Subsequently, Duré's feet touched the ground as he shot into the air. His right leg hacked down like a battle axe, as if lightning had fallen. With a boom, he crashed into a huge rock, shattering it into pieces and completely destroying it.
With a "hu" sound, Du Lei withdrew his right leg, flicked his sleeves, and stood still.
With Du Lei's amazing perception and the training of the ghost head, Du Lei's cultivation reached a thousand miles in a day. Not only did he reach the peak of a Level 3 Martial Disciple, he even refined his Wind Thunder Leg to perfection.
"Very good." The ghostly old man's figure floated down from the tree branch. His words were filled with praise as he said, "Your Wind Lightning Leg is close to mastery. You have already comprehended 70% of its strength. Only this bone is only 40%."
"Although turning the bones into a blade is the foundation, the foundation is very important. All strength cannot be lacking. "Only by increasing your cultivation level and the quality of your physical body can you turn the Thunder Wind Leg into a sharp blade. Also, if your cultivation level increases, then you will be able to use it even more, and if there is a strong beast core in your body, the effect will be much greater."
An idea came to Du Lei's mind, and he said, "Good, tomorrow, all the disciples of the Martial Extreme Martial School will go out to hunt for Demonic Beasts. If I can obtain a powerful beast core, it would be beneficial. But …" At the end, Duré's voice weakened.
"But what?"
"However, I was previously a servant of Xia Mengyan. This time, she will definitely hunt for me. If she finds out that my strength has soared, if I don't answer her questions, I will definitely be suspected. This isn't good." Duré still voiced his concern.
Shaking his head, Elder Gui said, "No worries, this kind of scammer …" "I'm good at such small tricks. When the time comes, you only have to say it like that and nothing will happen to me …"
The next morning, there were only about a thousand people gathered in the vast plaza of the Martial Extreme Martial School. These disciples were going to hunt in the Wanxiang Forest near the Thousand Cloud Mountain Range.
In the Wanxiang Forest, everything was strange, but danger was approaching, because many people had lost their lives there. For safety's sake, those disciples that thought that they were weak had not come, and those martial arts masters that thought that they were too strong were not willing to come. Thus, they did not come.
Duré had been waiting for him since a long time ago. He was dressed in white cloth, with dried rations on his shoulders and a sharpened steel sword at his waist.
However, after a while, Du Lei saw a beauty dressed in a red robe walking over from afar. Her moist eyes looked around with a different look, but when she looked carefully, she discovered that her eyes were filled with a cold indifference that could not be seen from a thousand miles away.
This person was the inner sect disciple, Xia Mengyan.
Although there were a thousand people here, Du Lei's strength could be considered weak among them. Hence, Xia Mengyan was able to see through him with a glance.
"Hmm? Why are you here? " Xia Mengyan slightly parted her red lips, as her pleasant voice attracted the attention of everyone on the scene.
Seeing that Du Lei was still standing there, Xia Mengyan's eyes flashed with a cold light. She moved like a blurred shadow and arrived beside Du Lei. Her jade-like robes released a wave of true energy, causing Du Lei's clothes to flutter and his chest to feel stuffy. However, Du Lei was no longer a mortal. He grit his teeth and stood still, not moving at all.
Xia Mengyan's eyes flashed with undisguised anger: "You still aren't kneeling after seeing Ben? If I remember correctly, you are the servant that begged me to kill you a month ago, right? "
"Exactly." Duré stood tall and straight, still not kneeling.
Everyone on the scene looked at Du Lei with strange eyes. Who on earth was this Du Lei? He actually dared to talk back to the publicly recognized goddess of the younger generation of the Wu Ji Sect.
Xia Mengyan stepped forward and raised her right hand, as an icy chill ran through her body, "I didn't expect that in the month I was in seclusion, you would have such a strong cultivation base that you even forgot your lowly duty. "Seems like the effects of my poison pill is not that great."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Mengyan's lily-white hands lightly tapped the air, and a breathtaking jade-green light flashed!
"Senior Xia, my words are a bit wrong. I, Du, have not even thanked you yet, so how would I dare to oppose you?" Duré suddenly clasped his fists and said.
As the jade-green light dissipated, Xia Mengyan's cold voice rang out, "What did you just call me?"
