"Can divine power be used in such subtle places?"
Li Yin muttered to himself.
"The biggest difference between a martial saint and a grandmaster is that they can concentrate their martial arts will, allowing their own divine power to be exerted stably. With a thought, they can break rocks and shock the world. However, as they continue to practice divine power in depth, they can also integrate divine power into every move."
Feiying thought for a moment and said, "You can even understand the divine power as the additional strength on the spiritual level. We condense the blood and qi into strength. In theory, we need to use our hands and feet to strike out. When the strength is transformed, every time we move our hands and feet, there will be strength bursting out. The same is true when the divine power is cultivated to a high level."
"High level?"
Li Yin glanced at the martial saint of the organizing committee.
He seemed to realize something, looking a little embarrassed: "The biggest difference between a martial saint and a grandmaster is that he can inspire the will of martial arts and achieve unity of knowledge and action. When words, actions and will are consistent, they can exert their greatest strength. If a martial saint's actions go against his heart, his strength will be affected."
Li Pin had heard of this theory.
When you reach the realm of Martial Saint, you must know what to do and what not to do.
Many things that seem incomprehensible to ordinary people are commonplace to martial saints and even star cultivators.
He couldn't help but look at the Son of the Sun again.
The reason why this martial saint was so reckless as to directly collide with a monster like the orc warrior with more than 100 HP...
Obviously, he was influenced by the will of martial arts.
"I like to act quietly, transform into a shadow, walk in the dark, and practice the art of hiding and stealth. I am not good at direct combat..."
Feiying couldn't help but glance at Li Yin when he said this: "Unless it's a place that's almost impossible to hide, my hiding technique has never been discovered by any martial saint so far. How... did you find me?"
“It’s anger.”
Li Yin said: "I can sense your energy."
"impossible!"
Feiying asserted, "I have been practicing the Shadow Walker technique for thirty-six years. I have long been able to integrate my own aura with the outside world. When necessary, I can even lower my body temperature to the same level as the outside world. How could my aura leak out?"
“It may be hard to believe, but it is true.”
Li Yin said: "Maybe I am gifted and my perception is different from that of ordinary people."
"Gifted..."
After hearing this, Feiying was somewhat dissatisfied with the answer, but he knew that he could not force Li Pin to give an explanation.
"Let's leave it like this."
Li Yin said: "I will accept the points from these two beasts."
"certainly."
Feiying nodded: "I witnessed you killing these two beasts with my own eyes! These 210 points should all belong to you."
Li Pin glanced at the Holy Son of the Sun standing beside him.
The Son of the Sun had already recovered his breath by this time.
Noticing Li Bin's gaze, the young martial arts master, who thought he was extremely talented, felt a burning pain on his face.
But considering the strength Li Yin showed when he killed two ferocious beasts...
"If you are willing to accept the defeat, these two beasts will be your spoils of war."
"good."
Li Yin stepped forward and began to collect his spoils.
You have to bring two red tiger fangs.
The value of the main materials used to refine these star tools is not necessarily less than that of a genuine star crystal.
"By the way, can you help me carry the body of this beast back? After all, it is the flesh and blood of a medium-sized beast, and its nutritional value is not low. It would be a pity to waste it."
Li Pin said to Feiying.
"… "
Feiying was speechless.
Have you no idea how serious my injuries are
A red-toothed tiger weighs nearly one ton. Do you have the nerve to ask a wounded man to carry it back
"Can."
Feiying said honestly, "Leave it to me."
"Thank you."
Li Yin said politely.
At this time, the Holy Son of the Sun had already adjusted his mentality.
He said in a deep voice: "Li Yin... I admit that you are a strong opponent, especially your swordsmanship... I am amazed, but... if you think that this means you have defeated me, then you are wrong."
He wiped the blood off his body and stood up again. "I think with your strength and the speed at which you gain points, it won't be a problem for you to make it into the top ten. I'll be waiting for you in the round-robin tournament of the World's No. 1 Martial Arts Competition. I'll let you know that fighting between a warrior and fighting between beasts is not the same. At the same time, I'll also let you know who is truly number one in the world."
After saying this, he didn't even give Li Yin time to reply. He turned around and left quickly.
Feiying looked at the Great Sun Saint who seemed to be running away, and then looked at the 210 points represented by the two beasts. After a quick calculation...
When he sneaked into the competition area to observe Li Bin, the first place Yan Hongtu had a score of 1565, the Son of the Sun was ranked third with 1411 points, and Li Bin was ranked fifth with 1398 points, 13 points behind the Son of the Sun, and only 3 points behind the fourth place Cheng Yufeng.
It was precisely because of the rapid reduction in the score that some people in the organizing committee could no longer sit still, and asked him to come and secretly observe whether Li Bin had any illegal operations in the process of hunting ferocious beasts.
Right now, Li Yin suddenly got a 210-point increase...
The score suddenly soared to 1608 points!
If he had not earned a large amount of points during the time when he was secretly observing Li Bin, at this moment, Li Bin would have directly surpassed the talented young man carefully trained by Longmen Pavilion and won the first place!
It is conceivable how shocked the organizing committee and representatives of the forces behind the major players would be when they see this data.
but…
He has recorded Li Bin's performance just now, which is enough to shut everyone up.
No matter how unbelievable it is for those people, they cannot doubt it in the face of such ironclad facts.
"Everyone... was wrong."
Feiying thought.
He couldn't wait to help Li Yin present the truth to everyone.
"There are no star crystals."
Li Yin said.
"The orc warrior and the red-fanged tiger haven't been mutated for a long time, so the possibility of them accumulating star crystals is low. Generally speaking, the longer a beast has mutated, the more likely it is that star crystals will accumulate in its body."
Feiying said, "Ferocious beasts are different from humans. They don't have a complete cultivation system, but their desire to evolve will make them constantly bathe in starlight. A large amount of starlight condenses in their bodies, making their physiques generally stronger. When they become stronger to a certain extent, there are only two results waiting for them: either death or continued mutation."
After hearing this, Li Pin quickly realized something.
"When humans can no longer withstand the strengthening of starlight, they will stop visualizing star gods, but fierce beasts..."
"yes."
Feiying nodded: "There are two possibilities. One possibility is that we don't need to pay attention to it, and the beast will die on its own. But this possibility is very low, because... compared to the human population of more than 10 billion, the number of other species on Gaia... is too large."
"The second possibility is... the beasts adapted to this mutation... and evolved into a more powerful species that is compatible with a more amazing evolutionary system!"
Li Pin said.
"After thirty years of turmoil, we thought we had withstood the crisis brought about by this evolutionary storm. All we need to do next is to settle down a bit and gain a firm foothold. With human wisdom and our more complete cultivation system than that of fierce beasts and monsters, we only need to grow step by step. It won't be long before the human race will return to the throne of Gaia's overlord! But... fierce beasts... especially monsters that have evolved wisdom, they... or their evolution speed, far exceeds our imagination."
"The Fallen Temple?"
The first thing Li Bin thought of was this dangerous place.
The Fallen Temple was originally a sacred place of a barbarian tribe that had a tradition of blood sacrifice.
When the Star God descended, theoretically this primitive tribe would perish along with the turmoil in the world, but the result was...
In desperation, in order to find a way to survive, they used the blood and lives of their own people and wild beasts to sacrifice to their gods.
A stone statue!
result…
The statue of the god came to life.
The resurrected god statue slaughtered the entire tribe and "awoke" the other god statues with blood sacrifices. It then walked out of the tribe, casting new statues and building temples, while hunting ferocious beasts, monsters, and humans, and "awoke" more god statues to strengthen itself.
To this day, no one knows how many living statues there are in the temple they built themselves.
When there are no enemies, they are like real statues, scattered in the primitive jungle. But when people or life pass by them, they will suddenly wake up, kill all creatures that invade their territory, and use them as sacrifices to continue the sacrifice.
Since the material they are made of is much stronger than human flesh and blood, each fallen statue, once it "comes to life", can accommodate a large amount of star power and quickly make itself extremely powerful.
Not to mention ordinary star refiners.
Even those high-level star refiners who are fully armed, holding their own magic weapons, wearing their own armor, and carrying a full set of high-level star tools, are not very confident in fighting them alone.
Today, the Fallen Temple is spreading rapidly.
It has spread to an area of thousands of miles centered on the original temple.
"Not only the Fallen Temple... Even the underground palace of the Shadow Forest..."
When Feiying said this, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly kept silent.
Li Yin immediately realized the purpose of the Tianyuan Federation's plan to build a town in the Shadow Forest.
I'm afraid it's not as simple as you think.
Although the Shadow Forest is not as dangerous as the Fallen Temple, the Shadow Forest is hidden in the mountains and underground palaces, and humans have not been able to go deep into the core for more than a decade.
It’s too complicated.
The palace under the shadow forest is like a maze, too huge.
In addition, there are dangers everywhere, and it is difficult for anyone to survive for a long time if they cannot find the right path.
Otherwise, once the supplies run out and you lose your way...
No matter how powerful a star refiner is, he will end up dead.
And because people have never explored the core of this underground palace, no one knows whether similar changes as the Fallen Temple have occurred in the center of this dangerous place over the past decade.
"Li Yin, do your best to show your excellence and strength, believe me..."
Feiying said carefully: "Although it is just an attempt by the upper class, if you can stand out in this world's number one martial arts tournament, the benefits you will eventually get will far exceed your imagination."
"I can."
Li Pin nodded slightly.
Feiying also nodded.
At that moment, Li Bin packed up his spoils and turned around, heading deep into the forest.
