Chapter 799 A Playful Smile
Chapter 799 A Playful Smile
This seemingly ordinary swamp contains a wealth of secrets.
The omnipresent tearing force was very similar to that of the Thousand Demon Sect, but there was also a fundamental difference. Even just standing on the edge, the tearing force still caused him great pain.
It's as if every inch of skin, every muscle, even every drop of blood and every cell on your body is being torn apart, and then slowly restored. During this process, the strength of your physical body will increase slightly.
"No wonder it's a quagmire that only those at the Four Extremes Realm can enter."
Zhao Mu considered himself to have some skill in body tempering, but it still took him a full half hour to adapt to the tearing force of the edge of this swamp.
On the other hand, regardless of whether Cang Li was faking it or not, the fact that he was nearly ten feet ahead of him meant that his physical strength was superior.
Although Tianlei Chuan is good, this is Cangwu Mountain, one of the nine holy lands of Kunwu Continent.
The Cang family are experts in body cultivation, so how could they not have some skills?
Tread~
The tearing force at the edge was no longer of much use to Zhao Mu. He slowly moved towards the center, and after walking about two zhang, he stopped again, because the tearing force here was obviously stronger than that at the very edge.
He was no fool; whether it was physical or spiritual cultivation, it had to be done step by step, slowly.
The Langhuan Secret Realm will be open for three full years, and he is not in a hurry at all.
After all, the Demon Rift Swamp can indeed enhance his strength to some extent.
"They can actually move forward?"
Cang Li was somewhat surprised. He had thought that the pretty boy would soon give up and jump back to the shore, like a defeated dog.
"Hmph, it's only two zhang (approximately 6.6 meters)."
Although it attracted some attention, I still didn't like it. As for going any further? There was absolutely no need.
Zhao Mu paid no attention to Cang Li's thoughts, nor did he intend to compete with him. He simply wanted to use the environment here to train his physical body.
The effect is indeed quite good.
Two more hours passed before Zhao Mu opened his eyes, because the tearing power in this location could no longer satisfy him.
Woohoo~
He set off again, but because the mud became thicker and thicker the deeper he went, Zhao Mu could no longer take easy steps. Instead, he had to wade through the mud with his body, which was very difficult and the tearing force was becoming stronger.
This time, he advanced a full three zhang, reducing the gap between him and Cangli to half.
"That pretty boy..."
Sensing something amiss, Cang Li turned around and was shocked to find that Zhao Mu had actually walked another three zhang forward. He muttered to himself, "How is this possible..."
No one understands better than Cang Li what Zhao Mu's position means.
The Four Extremes Realm.
With just his physical strength, he was able to fight against someone in the early stages of the Four Extremes Realm without being at a disadvantage, and could even wear them down to death.
Physical strength is stored within the flesh and bones throughout the body, unlike spiritual cultivation which relies solely on the dantian. In terms of endurance alone, physical cultivators have an absolute advantage, which is why they are often at the forefront of large-scale battles.
With a thick and durable health bar, who else but a body cultivator can compete?
Of course, under normal circumstances, most forces cannot afford to support body cultivators. Even if they could, they would be precious treasures. In comparison, supporting a batch of cannon fodder would be much cheaper.
"Sigh~"
As soon as he stood still, Zhao Mu grimaced in pain and even stumbled, almost falling directly into the mud, which made Yu Ying on the shore very nervous.
Because of the dangers of the Rift Demon Swamp, she knew very well that one wrong move could mean being torn apart and killed instantly.
"Zhao Mu, why bother comparing yourself to him!"
Yu Ying subconsciously thought that Zhao Mu was pushing forward despite the pain in order to prove himself.
In reality, Zhao Mu had no such intention at all.
What a great opportunity to temper his body! How could he let it slip by? Naturally, he would only stop when he reached his limit.
"Humph~"
Seeing Zhao Mu's posture, Cang Li smiled slightly. Sure enough, he had been putting on a brave face all along.
He was certain that this was the pretty boy's limit. Feeling bored, he immediately withdrew his attention and focused all his energy on body tempering. Only by gaining enough benefits here could he have the resources to fight against Cang Ming.
After all, most of the Cang family members were enthusiastic about the Rift Demon Swamp, while Cang Ming was indifferent to it.
Clearly, this guy's physical strength is so great that he no longer needs the assistance of the Demon Rift Swamp to enhance it.
This distance of ten zhang should be the limit that the Void Realm can reach.
Close your eyes, concentrate fully, and ignore everything else unless danger approaches.
On the other side, Zhao Mu was the same. He had no intention of competing with others. After several hours, the painful expression on his face gradually disappeared, and he began to slowly adapt to the tearing force of this place.
About three more hours passed before he slowly opened his eyes.
After about half a day, the tearing power here began to be unable to meet his cultivation needs.
woohoo~
He continued to venture deeper into the area.
"It can still move forward... this..."
Yu Ying clenched her hands tightly, worried for Zhao Mu, but at the same time dared not speak up to persuade him. She was afraid that if she spoke, Zhao Mu would become more obsessed with surpassing Cang Li, which would be even more dangerous.
This guy mentioned he already has a daughter, so he probably won't be too reckless.
Judging from what just happened, they probably have a pretty good idea of what's going on.
Three days later, to her astonishment, Zhao Mu actually arrived at the twelve-zhang mark.
The tearing force in this place is quite terrifying.
Zhao Mu's fall was no longer a simple stumble; he was completely torn apart, his flesh and blood instantly turning the surrounding mud red. Yu Ying's heart clenched at the sight. This guy was just too reckless.
Even Cang Li didn't dare to venture that deep into the area, yet he actually...
Several more days passed, and Zhao Mu's condition gradually improved. He had obviously adapted. About ten days later, he opened his eyes, looked at the deeper mud, and sighed deeply.
"pity....."
He could no longer go any deeper, because this time he had truly reached the limit that the Great Perfection of the Void Realm could achieve.
Without breaking through to the fourth level, going further would not only bring no benefits, but could also potentially become nourishment for this swamp, burying one's bones here.
"That's all there is to it!"
Looking back at Cang Li, who was still frowning and intensifying his body training, Zhao Mu revealed a hint of disdain.
He's been in the same position for almost half a month now, and it's still not over. I really overestimated him before.
Rub~
With a leap, Zhao Mu landed directly on the shore.
"You scared me to death."
Yu Ying looked shaken and angrily slapped Zhao Mu.
"It's all right!"
Zhao Mu grinned.
"How was the harvest?"
Yu Ying cast an attacking glance at him.
“It’s huge, much bigger than those nine lotus seeds. If Cang Li bothers you again, I can teach him a lesson for you.”
"It's settled then~"
Yu Ying smiled mischievously.
