Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint

Dongling Mountain Range.

Jiang Ning got up, his eyes shining with light.

He felt an immense power coursing through his entire body.

A vast energy surged within, with no outlet to release.

After completing this round of Blood Exchange, the previous sensation of weakness vanished.

Instead, it gave him an unprecedented feeling of strength.

He clenched his fist, and his long hair danced in the windless air.

"The transformation of the body is so intense!!" he murmured, his eyes involuntarily closing slightly.

In an instant, he felt each cell within him ceaselessly undergoing fission.

Constantly dividing and dying.

Dividing and dying.

Repeating endlessly.

Each time the fission completed, after exhausting their brilliance, they turned to ashes and were expelled from his body.

And with each new birth from fission, they grew stronger.

"No wonder I felt so lacking in energy just now!!"

Feeling the changes in his body, he immediately understood the reason behind it.

After the previous Blood Exchange, his body was gradually transforming.

This process usually took several days, or even weeks.

But after this Blood Exchange, the body's transformation was rapid.

A speed hundreds to thousands of times faster than before.

Such a terrifying speed of transformation naturally resulted in a tremendous consumption of energy.

The excessive depletion of his body naturally made him feel ravenous.

And now, this rapid transformation was nearing its end, so the body's reaction was no longer as intense as before.

After quietly reflecting on the changes within, Jiang Ning reopened his eyes.

He then noticed a layer of debris resembling white ash appearing on his skin.

"Hoo!"

He gently blew on his arm, and the ash on his arm drifted away in the air.

"This must be the residue from the body's renewal!"

Watching the falling debris, he understood.

He knew well that even ordinary people shed large amounts of skin fragments daily through metabolism.

His transformation was a more intense, rapid metabolism.

In the next moment.

"Splash!"

Jiang Ning leaped into the clear blue lake, swiftly washing away the debris on his body.

Upon coming ashore again, he felt light, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

The body was extremely agile, giving him the sensation he could be blown away by a breeze.

"Truly refreshing!!"

He clenched his fists again, and his long hair danced, drying instantly from dampness.

"Facing Long Xiaoyun again, I could probably take him down in just a few moves!"

At this moment, Jiang Ning felt immensely confident.

The solid feeling of power from within made him feel incredibly strong.

This strength did not come from external sources but from his own body.

In the next moment.

His gaze flickered.

The Qi Blood Power within burst forth, manifesting as a Red Dragon above his head.

He slightly raised his head, seeing the vivid Red Dragon above him.

Qi-Blood transforms into a Red Dragon.

Divine Soul condenses into a White Phoenix.

Breathing nurtures Purple Qi.

Immediately, his mind recalled records from books.

According to the records.

Qi-Blood transforming into a Red Dragon is an anomaly caused by Qi Blood Power reaching a certain level of strength.

This anomaly symbolizes the strength of the body's Essence.

Reaching such an anomaly signifies strength.

Enough to leave a significant mark in the current world.

The Divine Soul condensing into a White Phoenix is an anomaly caused by the strength of the Divine Soul reaching a certain level.

This anomaly represents the strength of the body's Spirit.

This strength is independent of achieving Yin God and Yang God; it is the pure strength of the Divine Soul.

Breathing nurturing Purple Qi is the sublimation of Qi.

This anomaly is even rarer.

Throughout history, few Daoist leaders or temple masters have achieved this.

The three combined signify a complete sublimation of Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

Rare in the world, with books only mentioning three contemporaries.

One is the Sect Hierarch of the Yellow Heaven Sect.

One is the temple master of the Qingxu Temple.

One alongside Ji Xuan, a noble figure.

"The Red Dragon measures thirteen feet!" Jiang Ning glanced above, silently retracting his gaze, and the anomaly above his head dissipated immediately.

He knew that his Qi Blood Power reached the anomaly of a Red Dragon through multiple Blood Exchange breakthroughs, but he shouldn't be complacent.

There are too many strong individuals in the world.

So many that he realized his previous perspective was too narrow.

In the face of true powerhouses, his current achievements were just the beginning.

Take Prince Huaian, domineering and powerful.

Fighting two Grotto Heaven experts single-handedly.

Those are ancient monsters over a thousand years old.

Yet Prince Huaian was not at a disadvantage, even pushing them back.

But Prince Huaian showed great respect in front of Granny Bai, who appeared suddenly.

Evidently, Granny Bai's strength far surpassed Prince Huaian.

And Granny Bai is not the unbeatable existence of the era.

The truly invincible being of this era is the Martial Saint, reigning supreme for over eight hundred years.

In front of Prince Huaian, his current strength wasn't enough to face him equally, let alone those even stronger.

Thus, he knew he had a long journey ahead.

Moments later.

He returned from the Dongling Mountain Range to his home.

"Young master!" Seeing Jiang Ning's figure, Lv Yi immediately approached.

"What is it?" Jiang Ning stopped in his tracks immediately.

"A letter for you, young master!" Lv Yi said.

"A letter?" Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow, quickly understanding the source of Lv Yi's mention.

Lv Yi then took an envelope from her chest.

Seeing the envelope in Lv Yi's hand, he felt a complex emotion surge within.

"Young master, the letter just arrived from a courier saying it's from the Royal Capital."
