After celebrating with Lin Rou, Lin Xiao entered his room and sat down cross-legged on the bed. His whole body calmed down completely and turned to the body of the burrower.
Under the ground somewhere in the wilderness outside the New Acropolis, a huge monster suddenly opened its bloody eyes.
"I have just been promoted to the second rank of a true warrior. I have not reached the middle stage of the second rank yet. I am definitely good enough to deal with those ordinary disciples, but I still have a long way to go to deal with a genius alchemist like Wu Hao."
Lin Xiao was not proud of defeating Ma Bing, Zhou Fei, and Li Jin, the three mid-level geniuses of the second rank today. He was lucky. He knew that the reason why he was able to defeat the three of them with the strength of the early second rank was entirely because of the concentration he had cultivated.
Yuan Gong, Golden Jade Technique, and Shadowless Floating Hong Technique are all high-level human-level techniques.
Although Ma Bing and the others are geniuses, most genius disciples only practice intermediate-level human-level exercises and martial arts. No one can practice high-level human-level exercises like me, and they have all reached a small level of success.
But Wu Hao is different. As the chief disciple of the Dan Pavilion, a nineteen-year-old third-level true warrior, a first-level alchemist, and the number one genius in the New Acropolis, the exercises and martial arts he practices are definitely high-level human-level ones.
It is impossible for him to be worse than himself in martial arts. In this way, he will not have much advantage in martial arts. In addition, in terms of level, Wu Hao is a third-level true warrior, and he has just been promoted to second-level, not to mention Wu Hao.
The strength of Hao's first-grade alchemist, when combined, is absolutely terrifying.
If I want to defeat him within half a year, it can be said to be extremely difficult, almost like reaching the sky.
"But it doesn't matter. My self-confidence is like the sun and the moon in the sky, and the mountains and rivers on the ground. If I can't even solve a small Wu Hao, what capital do I have to gain a foothold on this continent, and what ability do I have to protect my family?"
!”
call!
Lin Xiao's mind was immersed in the body of the Earth-Drilling Armor.
"The only thing I can rely on now is this Earth-Drilling Armor clone. As long as I can break through the Earth-Drilling Armor to three stars and continue to practice, I will go to the mountains and forests to kill monsters, search for treasures in the mountains, and go to the ruins.
It will be much more convenient to search for skill secrets in the city, and go to the depths of the jungle to pick up magical elixirs and encounter adventures, and your own practice will be very fast."
After all, the early training of a warrior requires not only amazing talents, but also a large amount of material foundation.
There are four major elements in spiritual practice: money, partners, Dharma, and land. Financial resources and material foundation take the first place.
As long as the Earth Burrowing Armor becomes stronger, it can ensure that his material foundation will not be ahead of others. This is a huge advantage that others cannot have.
This can be clearly felt from the large number of elixirs placed on the platform deep in the cave. These elixirs were accidentally obtained by Lin Xiao when he controlled the Earth-Drilling Armor clone to continuously hunt and kill other monsters in the past six months.
, which contains dozens of first-level elixirs and two second-level elixirs.
Calculated in detail, it is worth at least thirty to forty thousand taels of silver. This was obtained accidentally when Lin Xiao was hunting monsters. If he was specifically looking for the elixir, it would definitely be more than that.
"What I have to do now is to improve the strength of the Earth-Drilling Armor as soon as possible. Although the Earth-Drilling Armor I control now can fight with some three-star monsters, it is still too weak in the entire Lianyun Mountains."
In a rock cave more than ten feet underground, a terrifying aura of monster beasts emitted from the Earth-Drilling Armor.
"It has been half a year since I swallowed the demon elixir of the powerful demon ape. During these six months, I controlled the earth-burrowing armor to fight and hunt every night. I continued to absorb the vitality of the world and at the same time, I absorbed the demon elixir of the powerful demon ape. All the demonic essence contained in it has been absorbed, but it has only reached the peak of two stars from the mid-two-star stage to the late stage, and there is still a slight distance from the three-star level."
Sensing the rich demonic power within the Earth-Drilling Armor, Lin Xiao couldn't help but sigh.
The promotion of monster beasts is really difficult. Compared with humans, monster beasts are inherently powerful, but they also have huge limitations, that is, it takes much more energy to break through than humans.
In half a year, he went from the middle to the late stage of the two-star stage to the peak of the two-star stage. This was because Lin Xiao swallowed the powerful demon ape pill of the four-star monster. If ordinary monsters wanted to cross this process, it would not take more than a few years, but more than ten years. It is simply impossible, and even some monsters are limited by their bloodline and body, and cannot advance even half a step throughout their lives.
The promotion of monsters is difficult, too difficult.
But the results are also significant.
The original body of the Earth-Drilling Armor has grown to 2.3 meters, and now it has grown to 2.5 meters, and the body length of nearly four meters has also reached 4.5 meters. If the Earth-Drilling Armor used to be like an SUV, then now it is like one. A small truck is stuck.
"The reason why it is difficult for monster beasts to advance is entirely because monster beasts do not know how to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth on their own, do not know how to preserve the vitality of heaven and earth, and do not know how to convert the vitality of heaven and earth into the demonic power they need. When monster beasts absorb the vitality of heaven and earth, it is completely Relying on instinct, the utilization efficiency is far lower than that of humans, and the speed of natural advancement cannot be compared with humans."
After half a year of absorbing the demonic essence in the Powerful Demonic Ape Demonic Pill, and independently absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth, Lin Xiao gradually gained a considerable understanding of the demonic beasts.
When he first swallowed the Demonic Pill of the Powerful Demonic Ape, Lin Xiao thought that the Demonic Pill of the Powerful Demonic Ape could directly promote the Earth-Drilling Armor from two-star to three-star. But now half a year has passed, and Lin Xiao realizes that he was completely wrong. Well, if the demonic energy contained in the powerful demonic ape demonic elixir is completely absorbed without any loss, it will indeed allow the earth drill to advance to three stars. However, demonic beasts are not like humans who can practice exercises, and most of the energy they consume They will naturally dissipate, and promotion will naturally be slow.
"I don't know if this Beast Yuan Jue is useful."
Lin Xiao no longer thought about it, and was immersed in the body of the Earth-Drilling Armor. At the same time, he tried to control the demonic power in his body according to the route of the exercises in the Beast Element Art.
Although Lin Xiao had previously controlled the demonic power to circulate in the body, this was the first time he practiced a specific technique. It was inevitably a bit clumsy at first, but gradually, Lin Xiao completely integrated into it and controlled it. The demon power inside the Earth-Drilling Armor is also more handy and smooth.
"Chichi!"
Strong demonic power, like a tide, was running through the meridians in the body of the Earth-Drilling Armor. As this demonic power moved, an inexplicable feeling suddenly arose in Lin Xiao's heart. At the same time, Lin Xiao also felt that all over his body All the muscles are slightly hot.
"What's going on?" Lin Xiao was startled, but his movements did not stop, and he continued to control the movement of the demon power according to the mental method and operation route of the Beast Element Jue.
As the demonic power circulated through the meridians again and again, Lin Xiao clearly felt that the demonic power in his body was gradually penetrating into the muscles of his body through the meridians at a very slow speed, not only the muscles, but also The internal organs, bones, and bone marrow are all wrapped in subtle demonic power, slowly absorbed and fused.
A numb and itchy feeling is constantly transmitted from various organs and cells in the body.
Wow!
At the same time, in the cave where the Earth-Drilling Armor was, the vitality of heaven and earth that originally fell like a nebula and entered the body of the Earth-Drilling Armor quite gently suddenly became violent at this moment, and the vitality of heaven and earth within a few miles around seemed to
They were all pulled by an invisible force, and were absorbed crazily by the Earth-Drilling Armor clone, even forming a subtle storm of elemental energy in the cave.
A large amount of heaven and earth energy enters the clone body, and is quickly transformed into demon power under the operation of the Beast Element Art, and is integrated into the demon power of the Earth-Drilling Armor itself.
"What the hell is going on?" Lin Xiao couldn't help being shocked.
Lin Xiao is very familiar with the situation of the physical body absorbing demonic power. This situation will only occur when the strength of the underground armor clone increases.
Just like humans practicing Kung Fu, warriors change the structure of the physical body and enhance physical strength by absorbing Yuanli. The same goes for monsters. The difference is that warriors can use Kung Fu to transform their bodies at all times, but monsters can only rely on their physical bodies.
Absorb demonic power independently. Most of the time, the physical body is in silence and cannot actively absorb demonic power. Even when it is absorbed, most of the demonic power will be dissipated due to various reasons. Only an extremely small amount is absorbed by the demonic beast.
part.
But at this moment, the Earth-Drilling Armor unexpectedly broke the previous silence. Under the operation of the Beast Element Art, it continued to absorb the demon power. This process was active and controlled by Lin Xiao, rather than the unconscious autonomy of the demon beast itself.
Absorb, and most of the demonic power is minimally lost when fused with the body, internal organs, and bone marrow.
"No matter what, physical improvement is a good thing, refine it and absorb it for me!"
Lin Xiao was shocked and confused. Without any hesitation, he ran the Beast Yuan Jue crazily. A large amount of heaven and earth energy was absorbed into his body and transformed into strong demonic power. At the same time, this demonic power slowly integrated under the operation of the Beast Yuan Jue.
When it enters the physical body of the Earth-Drilling Armor, it increases the power of the Earth-Drilling Armor's physical body.
Crackling!
Lin Xiao could clearly feel that every cell in the body of the Earth-Drilling Armor began to transform, frantically devouring the energy contained in the demonic power from the outside world. At the same time, a feeling of hunger emerged in Lin Xiao's mind, as if
When a beggar who had been hungry for several days saw the fragrant white flour steamed buns, he felt like he wanted to eat them in big mouthfuls, which made Lin Xiao unable to stop.
call!
In the dark cave, the Earth-Drilling Armor closed its eyes and frantically absorbed the vitality between heaven and earth. Its huge tank-like body clung to the cold rocky ground. Lin Xiao, who was completely immersed in cultivation, did not notice it.
, when he was practicing the Beast Element Art, the dense metal scales on the body of the Earth Armor, the faint light flickered on and off, like stars in the night sky in the dark cave, magnificent and mysterious!
Time passed bit by bit, and no one knew how long it had passed. Lin Xiao felt that the demonic power absorbed by the underground armor clone seemed to have reached a limit. His body was filled with soreness and numbness, and he felt like he wanted to vent madly and fight.
impulse.
"Crack!"
The next moment, he felt as if something was broken in the body of Zhu Di Jiafen. A shattering sound sounded. The soreness and numbness in his body receded like a tide, and what replaced it was an incomparable feeling.
Expanding sense of power.
Wow!
In the cave, the eyes of the Earth-Drilling Armor, which had always been closed, suddenly opened, as if a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed in the cave.
"Huh!" The strong limbs supported the huge body, and the steel-like scales glowed with a cold light, bringing a huge impact and shock, unparalleled dominance.
Lin Xiao looked down and saw that his body, which was originally about 2.5 meters long, had reached three meters in this short period of time. His body length of 4.5 meters had also expanded to five meters. He grasped his sharp claws and easily moved the ground to the ground.
A series of ravines were plowed out of the rocks, and gravel flew up. Every time he raised his hands and feet, an explosive feeling of power filled his body.
What surprised Lin Xiao even more was that the originally dark, cold, and cold scales on the Earth-Drilling Armor now had a hint of dark gold in the darkness. Each of the fine scales was about the size of a fist, and it was tight.
Sticking to the strong, rugged muscles, the scales all over the body became thicker and more closely arranged, full of artistic beauty. When the steel plate-like scales were struck, they made a metallic sound, which was obviously strong.
Incomparably, it has more powerful defense than before.
"boom!"
Lin Xiao stretched his body. The originally spacious cave now seemed narrower. The body of the burrowing armor had become larger, but the structure of the whole body seemed more compact. There was no fat and bloated feeling at the beginning, and some were just thick and strong.
The muscles are condensed into pieces, like rocks.
Not only has there been a change in the physical body, Lin Xiao can clearly feel that in terms of perception, the Earth-Drilling Armor has also become more powerful. On the ground more than ten feet high, the sounds of various birds and beasts can be heard in Lin Xiao's ears.
, appears exceptionally clear and clear.
"call!"
Lin Xiao turned into a gust of wind and rushed out of the ground along the passage of the cave. The originally wide cave seemed a bit crowded and narrow now. Under the collision of the ground armor, the rocks were broken into pieces, and clear plows were formed on both sides of the passage.
There were scratches all over the place, but not a single scratch was left on the scales on the armor's body.
Above the ground, the sky was already dim and bright, and the chirping of various birds could be heard. The fresh air was breathed into Lin Xiao's lungs, giving it a refreshing taste.
Unknowingly, Lin Xiao practiced in the cave all night.
Lin Xiao swung his giant tail, and the steel-like tail pumped the air directly and exploded. The clear sense of power let Lin Xiao know that the Earth-Drilling Armor clone had broken through the two-star peak and reached the three-star realm.
"I was promoted to three stars!" Lin Xiao was ecstatic.
It turned out that Sanxing, who had been practicing hard and didn't know when he would break through, actually made a breakthrough overnight while practicing the Beast Element Art!
Lin Xiao, who was so happy in his heart, opened his ferocious mouth——
"Roar!"
A deep, deep roar resounded throughout the world, shocking all the monsters within a dozen miles to their knees and trembling.
That is the most powerful declaration issued by the Beast King!
