An eerie calmness surrounded the area. Four bloody beasts each lay dead and near them, one man stood tall. Shiny golden eyes observed the dead bodies.
'These could fetch a good price back at the village…' Li Fen was debating bringing these corpses back to the village. He wondered whether it would be too shocking if he brought these back.
After thinking a while. Li Fen decided he would bring back the body of the great tiger, and leave behind the body of the three apes. The forest apes were known to travel in packs, hence if he brought one the villagers might be doubtful of his prowess. Li Fen didn't want any unnecessary trouble.
Dragging the pummelled corpse of the tiger away, Li Fen found a reclusive spot under an oak tree in the forest.
After all, Li Fen only came here to cultivate.
Li Fen was currently only a mortal and had not even entered the Body Formation Realm. The Body Formation Realm was as it sounded. Forming the body by tempering it according to a cultivation manual.
The Supreme Heavenly Lightning Cultivation Art stated that one needed to first temper one's muscles. Then temper one's bones to support the load of the muscles. Before moving on to tempering one's blood to enrich the muscle. Before finally tempering one's viscera to provide that blood.
Each step represented a level in the Body Formation Realm. Early-stage Body Formation Realm experts were also known as Muscle-stage Body Formation Realm experts and so on.
Hence, Li Fen sat down crossed-legged.
He channeled the surrounding Qi he had to absorbed to turn into lightning to temper his muscles. He was forging his muscles with lightning!
A frown quickly appeared on Li Fen's chiselled face. The Body Formation Realm also tested ones endurance and tolerance. Tempering the body was a painful process!
Deep within Li Fen's body, lightning constantly damaged his muscles before reforming them stronger than before!
Li Fen had already undergone the process of forging his body hence after an hour he had already become a Muscle-stage Body Formation Realm expert!
Li Fen stood and punched the air. Boom! Li Fen's fist tore through the air, imploding the surrounding space and causing a vaccuum to form where his fist travelled.
It was devastating power!
"This is only the first step towards cultivation yet I am already this strong!" Li Fen couldn't believe his current level of power. He was already double, no thrice as strong as before!
Li Fen sat back down and continued. His unrivalled talent meant that the Body Formation Realm was just a breeze for him!
