In the cultivation chamber, Xiao Fei's body was entwined with lightning. His bones and muscles were continuously tempered by the lightning, becoming stronger, larger, and harder...
"Ah..."
Xiao Fei roared and picked up a pair of hundred-thousand-jin great hammers, striking his own head.
"Boom!"
With a deafening roar, a sound of metal clashing echoed.
Xiao Fei reached out and touched his head!
Fortunately! His head was not broken!
It was just a slight ringing inside his head. He shook his head, and it quickly returned to normal.
Then, he used the great hammers to smash himself from head to toe, a series of metallic collisions sounding out.
After smashing himself once, he found not a single trace of damage on his entire body.
As of today, he had successfully broken through to the fourth level of the "Wind Thunder Battle Body."
Thus, although his magical power cultivation had not yet broken through to the Nascent Soul realm, his physical body refinement cultivation had already reached the Nascent Soul realm.
Even without using magical power, he could contend with Nascent Soul experts relying solely on his physical strength.
Moreover, the fourth level of the "Wind Thunder Battle Body" greatly increased his physical strength and defense. The hundred-thousand-jin great hammers had no effect on him.
With this, the defensive spiritual artifact copper bowl he had just acquired was almost rendered useless for its defensive function, though it could still be used to trap people.
The pair of hundred-thousand-jin great hammers in Xiao Fei's hand now felt light as feathers. He could only temporarily put them away.
With a thought, he entered his spatial dimension.
The spatial dimension was filled with dense spiritual energy, a scene of vibrant prosperity. Feiyu lay lazily on the lake surface, enjoying the rich spiritual energy within the dimension.
Demonic beasts had long lifespans and cultivated relatively slowly.
However, in recent years, Feiyu had been cultivating within the dimension. Not only was the spiritual energy here denser than in the outside world, but time also flowed fifty times faster.
Feiyu's innate talent and aptitude were already very high. With steady growth, his cultivation could increase without significant bottlenecks.
Currently, Feiyu's cultivation had reached the late Nascent Soul stage.
Judging by his appearance, Feiyu would likely break through to the Nascent Soul realm before Xiao Fei.
Xiao Fei picked two large immortal peaches and threw them to Feiyu. Feiyu slightly raised his head from the water, opened his mouth, and caught the two immortal peaches.
After throwing the immortal peaches, Xiao Fei turned and walked into a patch of spiritual herbs.
This large patch of spiritual herbs had grown exceptionally lushly. Due to a lack of tending, many spiritual herb seeds had fallen to the ground, taken root, and sprouted into plants.
The dimension now had various types of spiritual herbs competing for growth, forming a new ecological environment.
However, every plant in his ecosystem was a spiritual herb, many of which were extremely rare in the outside world, even extinct.
Xiao Fei stopped in front of two trees. One was a wood spirit fruit tree, bearing over a dozen fruits that were nearing ripeness.
The other was a fire spirit fruit tree. After years of growth, this small tree had also begun to bear fruit.
Although it only bore one fruit, with Xiao Fei's current alchemy skills, he should be able to refine seven or eight pills of fire-attribute marrow-cleansing pills.
In the center of the dimension was the vine that had grown from the dimension itself. It grew one leaf every ten years and now had over two thousand leaves.
Xiao Fei walked into a small, separately cultivated medicinal garden, where he specifically planted spiritual herbs required for refining Nascent Soul pills.
A batch of spiritual herbs in the small medicinal garden had matured. Xiao Fei went in and dug up all the mature spiritual herbs.
Glancing at the remaining spiritual herbs, he decided to pull up most of the young spiritual herb seedlings, leaving only one or two of each type for seeds.
With the spiritual herbs he had harvested, if all were refined into Nascent Soul pills, they could at least enable one to two hundred people to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
The entire cultivation world of the Eastern Continent would not be able to consume so many Nascent Soul pills from him.
Xiao Fei picked some medicinal herbs and, with nothing else to do, refined another furnace of Nascent Soul pills in the dimension. When the pills were produced, one mid-grade Nascent Soul pill surprisingly appeared.
This brought a slight bit of pleasant surprise to Xiao Fei.
With the Nascent Soul pills in his pocket, Xiao Fei strolled around Meteor Island with his hands behind his back, searching for late Nascent Soul cultivators who could attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
There were now over a hundred thousand inhabitants on Meteor Island, concentrating the elites of the entire human race, but there were only a little over 300 Nascent Soul experts among them.
At least more than half of the entire human race's Nascent Soul cultivators were here at present.
And among these over 300 people, most were in the early Nascent Soul stage, and the remaining majority were in the mid Nascent Soul stage.
Those who had truly cultivated to the late Nascent Soul stage were less than ten.
This illustrated the difficulty of cultivation.
If Xiao Fei did not have many unsold Nascent Soul pills and the human race urgently needed strong individuals, these people would not have the opportunity to attempt the Nascent Soul realm even if they lived until their lifespan was exhausted.
Xiao Fei walked with his hands behind his back, humming a tune, appearing very leisurely.
When he reached a deserted corner, he unbuckled his belt, took out a weapon he hadn't used in thousands of years, and aimed it at the wall, letting out a stream.
Just then, footsteps sounded from behind him. Xiao Fei did not turn around; in his divine sense, he had already seen Ji Wudi approaching him with a smiling face.
"Yo! Senior Brother Xiao! What a coincidence!"
Ever since Xiao Fei had made a deal with Ji Wudi for the first time, this fellow had abandoned his usual cool and resolute image and transformed into a fawning subordinate.
Every time he saw Xiao Fei, he would come forward to get close, his muscular physique struggling to force out a few flattering words.
Xiao Fei had long seen through his intentions, but he didn't care. He had made many more deals with him, and Ji Wudi thus owed Xiao Fei a mountain of debt.
Thanks to Xiao Fei's pills and Ji Wudi's diligent efforts, he had successfully broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage over the years.
"Hahaha... Senior Brother Xiao, you're still personally watering the plants!"
"Ha... Haha!"
Ji Wudi, a rough fellow, had finally thought of a relatively amusing way to strike up a conversation, and he was using it for the 23rd time.
Ji Wudi let out two dry laughs, but finding that Xiao Fei did not laugh, he could only awkwardly stop.
He was originally a man of iron will, and now he was deliberately trying to please someone, which was extremely difficult.
"Little Ji!"
Xiao Fei patted Ji Wudi's shoulder and said in an old, experienced tone, with great earnestness.
"I have a heaven-sent opportunity to give you! I wonder if you're interested?"
Ji Wudi was overjoyed upon hearing this. An opportunity that Xiao Fei called heaven-sent was definitely not to be underestimated.
"Ji Wudi will obey all of Senior Brother Xiao's arrangements. If Senior Brother commands, I will obey without question!"
As Ji Wudi spoke, he bowed deeply to Xiao Fei and pledged his loyalty.
Although he didn't know what it was yet, it was always better to be overly polite.
"Good! I like men like you! Come with me."
Xiao Fei quickly helped Ji Wudi up, then turned and walked away without looking back. Ji Wudi knew that opportunities should not be missed and quickly followed.
