Condensing the Five Elements Holy Body, the early stage of Danhu Realm

At the same time.

On the mountain peak, by the Xuanbing Lake.

The moment the five-colored light pillar appeared, it signified Xiao Ming’s successful cultivation of the Five Elements Saint Body!

The Five Elements Saint Body can devour and absorb the Five Elements Power of the world, greatly boosting the speed of cultivation.

After forming the Five Elements Saint Body, Xiao Ming did not stop cultivating; instead, he mobilized the power of the Saint Body and began to draw in the Five Elements spiritual energy from the surrounding world.

He sat cross-legged, bathed in a five-colored light pillar as thick as a house, and under the pull of the light pillar and his own Saint Body, all the Five Elements spiritual energy within a hundred-mile radius was drawn over.

Golden Metal spiritual energy, green Wood spiritual energy, blue Water spiritual energy, red Fire spiritual energy, and earthy yellow Earth spiritual energy!

Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth!

Five types of elemental energy surged towards Xiao Ming like a tide.

Then, all of it poured into Xiao Ming’s body.

Under the infusion of these vast powers, Xiao Ming’s aura began to rise steadily.

Yuangang Realm Great Perfection… Danhu Realm… Early Stage!

After absorbing the immense Five Elements spiritual energy, Xiao Ming’s Cultivation Level broke through continuously, directly advancing to the Early Stage of the Danhu Realm!

The puddle of true essence within his body had now transformed into a deep, small Dan Lake, which displayed five colors and was extremely mystical.

Not only did Xiao Ming’s Dan Lake change color, but even his true essence, the Shattered Yuan Sword Qi stored in his body, and even his flesh and blood were now affected by the Five Elements Saint Body, all emitting five-colored spiritual light.

And that wasn't all.

On the surface of Xiao Ming’s skin, there also appeared lines of five different colors.

The lines varied in color, but each contained an extremely terrifying power and could even draw in the spiritual energy of the world.

These were Five Elements Saint Runes!

Saint Runes are the mark of a Saint Body; any Saint Body must have Saint Runes!

Saint Runes form because the energy within the martial artist’s body is too concentrated, causing it to overflow onto the surface of the body, thus forming the lines.

A martial artist can unleash extremely strong combat power through Saint Runes and can also absorb and even control the unique powers of the world through them.

Xiao Ming cultivated the Five Elements Saint Body, so his Saint Runes could easily absorb and control the surrounding Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth powers.

At this moment.

The five-colored light pillar connecting heaven and earth slowly dissipated.

Xiao Ming stood up from the ground.

He reached out and gently clenched his hand in the void, and immediately, the Five Elements Power of the world surged forth, forming a five-colored sword qi in his hand that exuded a sharp sword intent.

Although he had not tested the power of this sword qi, Xiao Ming could already clearly feel its terrifying might.

This five-colored sword qi could probably match the full-strength strike of an Early Stage Danhu Realm expert, or even be stronger!

And this was the terrifying aspect of the Five Elements Saint Body.

It could greatly amplify a martial artist’s combat power!

Suddenly.

Sounds of air being torn apart rang out one after another.

Xiao Ming looked up and saw four figures flying from a distance: three old men and one Young Scout.

Among the three old men, two were Early Stage Danhu Realm, and one was Mid Stage Danhu Realm.

The Young Scout was the weakest, only in the Early Stage Yuangang Realm.

These four varied in strength and age, but all wore the uniform attire of the Lei Family Fortress.

“People from the Lei Family Fortress?”

Xiao Ming sneered.

As expected, the Lei Family Fortress sent people to trouble him, but the current Xiao Ming feared no encirclement!

Whoosh!

The sound of wind swept past.

The four figures landed opposite Xiao Ming.

“Xiao Ming! How dare you leave the protection of the Spirit Sword Sect and run to this godforsaken place alone!” the Young Scout said carelessly.

“Now that our Lei Family Fortress has dispatched three Danhu Realm Elders, today, you are doomed to die!”

After speaking, the Young Scout showed a look of triumph and arrogance; someone who didn’t know might have thought he was the leader.

Xiao Ming couldn’t be bothered with him.

Instead, he focused his gaze on the three old men.

Xiao Ming didn’t pay much attention to the two old men in the Early Stage Danhu Realm, but the strongest old man, in the Mid Stage Danhu Realm, made Xiao Ming narrow his eyes.

Fighting a Mid Stage Danhu Realm opponent would be a bit tricky for Xiao Ming, who had just advanced.

But it wasn't a big problem either.

“Xiao Ming! You slaughtered two core disciples of our Lei Family Fortress, do you admit your guilt?!” Sixth Elder stepped out and roared.

“Admit guilt? I admit your mother’s guilt!” Xiao Ming sneered, drawing the Nu Lei Sword from his waist.

“You brat, how dare you insult me!” Sixth Elder immediately flew into a rage and was about to attack Xiao Ming.

“Wait a moment!” Suddenly, Fourth Elder, the strongest, stopped him.

“Fourth Elder?”

“Did none of you notice that the Cultivation Level of this evil villain Xiao Ming has already increased?” Fourth Elder said with a serious expression, “This guy’s aura is strong; he has already condensed a Dan Lake and cultivated to the Early Stage Danhu Realm.”

“Ah??”

Fifth Elder, Sixth Elder, and the Young Scout were startled and quickly looked at Xiao Ming.

Indeed!

Xiao Ming’s aura was no longer that of the Yuangang Realm; he had already cultivated to the Danhu Realm!

“That hateful brat, he must have swallowed some rare treasure to suddenly advance!” Sixth Elder said angrily.

“Everyone, don’t be careless, let’s all attack together and eliminate this brat!” Fourth Elder shouted in a low voice, drawing out a steel whip that flashed with lightning.

Fifth Elder drew a large iron spear from behind him.

Sixth Elder drew a long sword.

As for the Young Scout, his strength was too weak, and he had already retreated far to the side.

“Elders, don’t be afraid!” The Young Scout, who had retreated to a distance, vigorously waved his fists and loudly cheered them on, “Xiao Ming has just advanced, so his Cultivation Level must be unstable. The three of you go together, and you will surely be able to kill this villain!”

“In my opinion, it will take at most a dozen breaths of time for you to slay Xiao Ming here!”

Just as the Young Scout was shouting, Xiao Ming moved.

His figure flickered, and he instantly transformed into a gust of wind, actively shooting towards the three old men!

In mid-air, Xiao Ming mobilized all his power, simultaneously raising the Nu Lei Sword in his hand and unleashing a furious slash!

Swish!

A three-meter-long, crescent-shaped sword qi emitting five-colored light suddenly shot out, carrying terrifying sword might and fiercely slashing towards Sixth Elder with a thunderous roar.

“Old Six, be careful!” Fourth Elder and Fifth Elder cried out in alarm simultaneously.

Then, each wielding their weapons, they furiously attacked Xiao Ming from left and right.

Sixth Elder, who was targeted by Xiao Ming, dared not be negligent and quickly unleashed streaks of formidable sword qi, intending to block Luo Zhen’s Shattered Moon Slash attack.

However.

His counterattack was extremely weak; those streaks of sword qi, upon encountering Luo Zhen’s Shattered Moon Slash, were successively blasted apart like paper.

After the Shattered Moon Slash shattered all the obstructing sword qi, its momentum remained undiminished, continuing to fiercely slash towards Sixth Elder.

Sixth Elder was greatly alarmed!

He never expected that the sword technique Xiao Ming unleashed would be so powerful, capable of continuing to sweep forward with an invincible posture after breaking through his sword qi like a hot knife through butter.

In his panic, Sixth Elder wanted to use his trump card martial skill, but there was no longer enough time. He could only hold his long sword horizontally in front of his chest to block Xiao Ming’s attack.

“My Lightning Sword is a top-grade Yellow-rank sword, exceptionally sturdy, it should be able to block this move…” A thought flashed through Sixth Elder’s mind.

The next moment.

“Boom!!”

The crescent-shaped sword qi slammed into Sixth Elder, and then, under Sixth Elder’s terrified gaze, the five-colored sword qi shattered his long sword!

And that wasn't all.

The sharp sword qi was unparalleled, almost cutting Sixth Elder in half on the spot, and the powerful force directly blasted him away, sending him crashing a hundred meters away.

With a “wah” sound.

Sixth Elder’s throat sweetened, and he spat out a large mouthful of thick blood, which contained quite a few shattered internal organs.

His clothes were torn, and a deep, bone-visible, hideous sword mark appeared on his chest.

At the same time.

Fourth Elder and Fifth Elder also approached Xiao Ming.

Just as the two swung their weapons to attack, Xiao Ming smiled faintly, and after a flicker of his figure, he once again disappeared from his original spot.

A gust of wind swept past.

Xiao Ming appeared out of thin air a hundred meters away, behind the heavily injured Sixth Elder.

“Eh? Where’s Xiao Ming?!”

“Where did he go?”

Fourth Elder and Fifth Elder, who had lost track of Xiao Ming, simultaneously asked in surprise.

“He’s there! He’s behind Sixth Elder!” the Young Scout in the distance quickly reminded them.

Fifth Elder and Sixth Elder both turned their heads to look.

Then they saw Xiao Ming holding the Nu Lei Sword, lightly slashing at Sixth Elder’s neck.

“How dare that villain!”

“Old Six, be careful!”

Fourth Elder and Fifth Elder cried out in alarm simultaneously.

Xiao Ming’s hand rose, and the sword fell.

A large head soared into the sky!

Sixth Elder, who was severely injured, didn’t even know what was happening when he felt a dizzy spell, and then he completely lost consciousness.

Sixth Elder, dead!
