Chapter 25: Waterfall Tempering Body

  "What a powerful force, just right for tempering my body!"

  Lin Xi gazed at this silver river-like waterfall hanging down, secretly delighted.

  The greater the force of the waterfall's impact, the better the effect on a warrior's body tempering. The continuous pounding of the waterfall is like an uninterrupted drumbeat against the body, a frequency that even top-level warriors cannot achieve.

  The advantage of exercising the body in a waterfall is here. However, first you still have to withstand the force of the waterfall impact.

  "Give it a shot!"

  Lin Xi's body suddenly lowered, as if a fierce dragon, and rushed in violently.

  Rumble!

  The thunderous sound of the two banks, Lin Xi suddenly felt as if he had been chopped down by a giant golden axe weighing thousands of catties, his whole body's blood and energy surged, and his skeleton almost shattered.

  "This waterfall has such great power!"

  Lin Xi shouted loudly, his feet hadn't even stabilized before he was thrown out. He heavily smashed into the cliff walls on both sides, leaving a deep human-shaped mark.

  Although he knew the power of the waterfall was great, Lin Xi did not think it would be so great.

  Lin Xi's skeleton was as hard as steel, his muscles like iron, and the explosive power he unleashed was comparable to that of a prehistoric ferocious beast. However, at the foot of the waterfall, he was knocked flying in an instant, unable to even stand stably.

  The impact force of the waterfall is imaginable.

  "Come on in!"

  Lin Xi's eyes flashed with a hint of light, and he charged in again.

  The power of the waterfall impact is enormous, almost comparable to that of a strong Seventh-Order Giant Spirit Realm cultivator. However, if one can endure it, the improvement in their martial arts will be unimaginable.

  Adventure and harvest are proportional. For Lin Xi, this waterfall is a shortcut to the pinnacle of martial arts, absolutely not to be missed.

  Rumble!

  Lin Xi flew up again and heavily slammed into the cliff wall.

  The third time, after a breath of time, Lin Xi was flung flying.

  For the fourth time, Lin Xi was flung flying again after three breaths of time.

  For the fifth time, Lin Xi supported himself at the edge of the waterfall for fifteen breaths.

  …………

  Time and time again, Lin Xi's stay in the waterfall grew longer.

  After holding on for a moment at the edge of the waterfall, Lin Xi was completely exhausted, lying on the rocks beside the waterfall, too tired to move.

  "It's really exhausting! It's even more tiring than fighting against Master Sis!"

  Lin Xi lay on the rock, feeling that even breathing was difficult. Nevertheless, Lin Xi's heart was filled with joy. He felt that after experiencing this baptism, his muscles, bones and skin were all tightened up.

  The waterfall's pounding not only tempered the skin, but also strengthened the muscles and enhanced the body's resistance to impact.

  Time passed day by day, and Lin Xi directly took root around the waterfall. Every day, he used a lot of time to stand under the waterfall and rinse himself. When he was tired, he would practice "Dominating the World's Momentum", attracting the heaven and earth's primordial energy, while supplementing his physical strength.

  With the remaining leisure time, I plunged into the mountain forests, killing wild beasts and venomous snakes. Collecting fire-attribute medicinal herbs and fierce beast internal elixirs, I bathed in medicine and tempered my body.

  In the mountains, there is no sun or moon. Lin Xi has already completely forgotten about time, immersed in the thrill of his power rapidly soaring.

  Three days later, Lin Xi could stand steadily at the edge of the waterfall.

  Ten days later, Lin Xi was able to persist for a whole hour at the edge of the waterfall.

  Fifteen days later, a dense layer of skin membrane was generated under Lin Xi's skin...

  "Whoosh!"

  Lin Xi rushed out from under the waterfall, shaking her hair, feeling refreshed all over.

  "This is so comfortable! The feeling of this power surge is just too great!"

  Lin Xi felt his entire body filled with power.

  Splash!

  Suddenly a burst of sound came from above, and Lin Xi was startled to look up, only to see a white pigeon flapping its wings, falling from the sky.

  "It's Auntie's carrier pigeon!"

  Lin Xi's heart moved, and he immediately stretched out his arm, letting the pigeon land on it. He took off the tube tied to the pigeon's leg, and Lin Xi let the pigeon go.

  The mountains are very dangerous, carrier pigeons can only be sent to the outermost edge, and cannot go further in, or they will be eaten by ferocious birds.

  Lin Xi took out a letter from the bundle and unfolded it, carefully reading its contents.

  "What?! Meng Jun actually became the acting leader!"

  Lin Xi's heart skipped a beat as he finished reading the contents of the letter.

  He didn't expect that in just over twenty days, Meng Jun had made another move. It turned out that Meng Jun took advantage of Lin Xi's absence to mobilize several other elders and reconvene the Elder Council, citing the reason that the previous master had passed away for too long and it was unacceptable for the sect to be without a master for even one day, and recommended himself as the acting master.

  There were three other elders who supported him, and with the Great Elder choosing to remain neutral this time, Lin Ruyun was left standing alone and finally allowed Meng Jun to become the acting leader as he had wished.

  Lin Ruyun also mentioned in the letter that Meng Jun seemed to have colluded with people from Lieyang Sect. On the day he took over as the acting sect leader, an elder from Lieyang Sect came to congratulate him.

  "This old scoundrel!"

  Lin Xi's arm muscles bulged with rage, his heart seething with hatred. Meng Jun was undoubtedly using every means at his disposal to erode the power that should have belonged to the head of the sect, while using his position as acting head to undermine his aunt Lin Ruyun.

  Meng Jun's desire for the position of sect leader is now well-known to everyone. At this point, he no longer hides it and has begun to be openly brazen about it.

  Lin Xi clenched his fist tightly, and many thoughts flashed through his eyes.

  "Fine! Heaven wants to destroy it, must first make it crazy. Meng Jun, let you be proud for a few days, indulge in the addiction of being the acting master. When I return from my training in the Ferocious Beast Mountains, I will completely strip you of your elder position and inherit the master's authority!"

  A resolute glint flashed across Lin Xi's face. His tolerance for Meng Jun had already reached its limit. Once he returned to the Five Thunder Mountain, it would be time to settle accounts with him.

  Lin Xi's current cultivation was advancing by leaps and bounds, far surpassing his progress on the Five Thunder Mountain. In just a few short months, he had already caught up with others who had spent years cultivating. At this rate, reaching the sixth stage of the Divine Movement before the age of eighteen was almost within sight.

  Putting aside his worries for the time being, Lin Xi turned around and once again threw himself into crazy training.

  Eighteen days later, Lin Xi's strength had increased by a large margin.

  Twenty days later, Lin Xi could already stand in the center of the waterfall, relying on the thick skin membrane on his body to resist the impact of the waterfall.

  …………

  A month later, Lin Xi's entire body was transformed, his muscles as hard as iron and his skeleton as dense as steel. His skin was thick and tough, with a thick layer that was even more resilient than steel wire, and it was filled with explosive energy. Compared to when he entered the Beast Mountain Range, Lin Xi's physical quality had directly increased several times over.

  Two months later, Lin Xi's physical quality and strength had grown to a terrifying realm.

  Under the relentless tempering of the waterfall, his skin was tough and elastic, with a density that was several times higher than that of a Sixth-Order Divine Movement cultivator. His resistance to impact had already reached the level of a Seventh-Order Giant Spirit cultivator.

  After two months of tireless practice, the "Supreme Dominance" had allowed Lin Xi's muscles to contain power that could rival a high-level expert who had just reached the seventh stage of the Giant Spirit Realm.

  …………

  Rumble!

  The waterfall thunders like ten thousand horses galloping, pouring down from the top of the cliff, crossing thousands of feet of space, and heavily hitting the rocks.

  At the bottom of the waterfall, Lin Xi lowered his eyebrows and closed his eyes, like a boulder, motionless. The waterfall crashed against him, making a loud clanging sound, as if it was striking steel.

  In the waterfall, misty vapors rose like a dragon, piercing Lin Xi's body through every pore. This was the heavenly energy attracted by Lin Xi's cultivation of "Dominating Heaven and Earth".

  As Lin Xi's strength increased, the yuanqi he could attract also became thicker and more substantial. Now it was almost tangible, visible to the naked eye.

  Lin Xi combined his training of "Dominating the World's Momentum" with waterfall tempering after he could stand steadily under the waterfall, in order to save time and increase the speed of his own strength progress.

  The heaven and earth yuanqi around him grew thicker, a thick white mist shrouded his body, making him look like he was hiding in plain sight, revealing an air of mystery.

  "Hum!"

  Lin Xi's eyes flickered, and suddenly opened. In that instant, it was as if a ferocious ancient beast had awakened, and the aura emanating from Lin Xi's body was overwhelming, covering the sky and earth, unmatched in its dominance.

  Whoosh!

  Lin Xi's body shrunk, then suddenly sprang up, with a move called "White Ape Soars into the Sky", and immediately flew upwards. With a loud crash, the stone was shattered and the sky was shocked. This giant waterfall, which was as wide as a strip of cloth, was struck by Lin Xi's body, directly splitting it into two water waves, one waterfall becoming two.

  Whoosh!

  Lin Xi's ten fingers sank deep into the rock wall, paused for a moment, and then leapt again. He continued to climb along the cliff face several dozen feet high. The huge waves crashed against his body, but he didn't move an inch.

  His movements were agile and his speed was incredibly fast. He seemed like a white ape, climbing along the mountain cliffs as if flying. Unexpectedly, he withstood the impact of the waterfall and climbed up from the bottom of the cliff to the top.

  Bang!

  Lin Xi did a flip in mid-air and landed lightly on the cliff top.

  "Great! Now that I've leveled up, let's go capture that ferocious beast!"

  Lin Xi's heart rose with great confidence.

  He has been here for several months and is familiar with the edge of the Fierce Beast Mountain Range. Ordinary fierce beasts can hardly threaten him now.

  However, going inwards for over twenty miles, near the boundary that Senior Sister Su Zi Xuan mentioned, there are several ferocious beast kings. These ferocious beasts aren't particularly fast, but they have boundless strength, almost as powerful as a sixth-stage Divine Movement Realm ferocious beast.

  Lin Xi had almost died under the claws of those ferocious beasts a while back. Fortunately, their speed wasn't as ridiculous as that of the sixth-level ferocious beast, so although Lin Xi couldn't defeat them, he could still escape.

  Now Lin Xi's strength has greatly increased, and he is no longer the same as before. Naturally, his attention was focused on these few ferocious beasts.

  This ferocious beast's leader, its internal elixir is light green in color. Although it's slightly inferior to the sixth-level ferocious beasts, but compared to the white internal beasts Lin Xi has captured so far, its quality is much higher.

  "Go!"

  Lin Xi leaped forward and immediately flew down from the mountain top, plunging into the dense forest.
