One day, two days, three days...
The Spiritual Qi vortex on Ancestral Master Peak had persisted for a full three days.
In these three days, Lin Fei devoured countless Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. Was it equivalent to the Spiritual Qi absorbed by hundreds of Martial Masters? Or even the Spiritual Qi of thousands of Martial Masters? Lin Fei himself wasn't clear.
But he could feel that as the Saber Essence in his body kept expanding, his body underwent another transformation. Yes, it was still a transformation of the flesh. And it was a second rebirth!
The first rebirth was when Lin Fei's physical body reached perfection. And now, the second rebirth was Lin Fei's Saber Essence.
Countless Saber Essence, along with the meridians, actually permeated into the blood, muscles, bones, and every inch of the body.
Lin Fei's blood was no longer merely bright red, but bright red with a hint of silver. That was the color of the Saber Essence. Saber Essence was silver-white.
With the infiltration of the Saber Essence, Lin Fei felt that this body's transformation was even greater than the last time. Moreover, he could clearly feel the rich life aura starting to emit from within his body.
In the dark, Lin Fei felt that perhaps, that was the lifespan! Life aura represented lifespan. Once the foundation was successfully built, it would break the shackles of life, and lifespan would increase. Foundation Establishment True Persons and Martial Saints could live for five hundred years!
However, this was not the end. Lin Fei quietly experienced the continuous "remodeling" of his body by the Saber Essence inside his body.
Back in the Northern Territory, Liu Yibai also mentioned that Foundation Establishment was very important. What was built was the foundation of the Martial Dao!
And the infiltration of True Essence or Saber Essence into the body was actually a process of remolding the body.
The human body, usually during gestation in the mother's womb, forms the body. How a person's body was formed at that time was closely related to their parents. But this was uncontrollable.
Foundation Establishment, however, was actually the second remolding of the body. This time, the remolding of the body was controllable.
What did the True Essence look like? What did Martial Dao True Intent look like? This affected the direction of body remolding, making it completely compatible with one's True Essence and Martial Dao True Intent. This would allow the True Essence to explode with its strongest power!
The direction of body remolding was closely related to the direction of the Saber Essence. It could fully accommodate the explosion of Saber Essence. This process of remolding the body was called Remolding the Dao Body!
Whether it was Qi Cultivators building their foundations or Martial Artists doing so, the process was actually the same. Qi Cultivators build their foundations and what they remold was their Magic Body. Martial Artists build their foundations and what they remold was their Dao Body.
This process could be fast or slow and varies from person to person. It was precisely because of the need to remold the Dao Body that Lin Fei absorbs so much Spiritual Qi from heaven and earth, converted it into Saber Essence, and then integrated it into his body.
Time gradually passed. Lin Fei didn't know how long it had been.
"Swish."
Lin Fei suddenly opened his eyes. He found that the Saber Essence in his body could no longer be integrated. The Spiritual Qi vortex in the sky gradually disappeared. Everything calmed down.
"Did I make it?"
Lin Fei stretched out his hand. His hand was still fair and tender, with skin like a baby's. However, when he gently clenched his fist, an unimaginable sense of power rose in him.
Lin Fei then slowly opened his palm and lightly imprinted it on a giant stone next to him. Even without using any power from the Saber Essence, just a slight exertion of force, his palm seemed to embed into the giant stone as if it were a piece of tofu.
"That's not tofu, it's a hard giant rock! So, the problem isn't with the giant rock, it's with my hand! My hand seems to have become as sharp as a saber blade. Even without using Saber Essence, just with the Dao Body alone, I can easily blow up a Martial Grand Master!"
Lin Fei clenched his fist and smashed it into the ground.
"Boom."
The ground violently shook. It seemed as if the entire Ancestral Master Peak was shaking.
"I understand now, remolding the Dao Body is actually making the body more closely matched with the energy inside. The energy in my body is Saber Essence, which has the sharp characteristics of a saber.
Therefore, the Dao Body that I remolded subtly has the characteristics of a saber. In other words, my current Dao Body is equivalent to a peerless treasure saber..."
Lin Fei finally understood what the Dao Body was all about. Even though Liu Yibai had talked about it before, how could it be as clear as experiencing it firsthand?
Moreover, Lin Fei faintly recalled the challenge he faced against the Royal Family's Supreme Elder in the garden,
He gave it his all at the time, unleashing a terrifying two hundred and fifty meters of saber energy. But his previously unbeatable saber energy only made the Supreme Elder casually flip his palm and easily extinguished it.
At that time, there were hardly any spiritual power fluctuations on Supreme Elder. Lin Fei was utterly puzzled at the time. The Supreme Elder just explained that this was the difference between Foundation Establishment and others.
Now, Lin Fei finally understood. Even if the Supreme Elder had explained it at that time, Lin Fei probably wouldn't have understood.
The reason why the Supreme Elder was able to control the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth in the void and directly extinguished Lin Fei's saber energy without much use of his spiritual power was simple.
It was because of the Magic Body that Foundation Establishment True Person remolded!
The Magic Bodies of Foundation Establishment True Person probably had a natural affinity with the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. Their control over the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth far exceeds the imagination of ordinary people.
At least controlling the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth in a small range was not very difficult for them. That was the function of the Magic Body.
On the other hand, martial artists condense their Dao Bodies. The Dao Body cannot control the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth, but it has incredible abilities.
For example, the Dao Body that Lin Fei was currently remolding was almost like a peerless treasure saber.
His Dao Body was the deadliest weapon. And not only that, Lin Fei also vaguely felt as if his body was very light as if he could walk in the void.
Yes, walking in the void!
Lin Fei took a deep breath, then, slowly stood up, lifted his foot, and took a step towards the void.
Lin Fei immediately felt a difference with this step. He didn't feel like he was stepping on land but stepping on air. It was as if stepping on cotton, very soft.
However, he did not step into the empty space. The Saber Essence in his body almost instinctively converged into Lin Fei's legs and it was just a part of the Saber Essence that converged into the legs. But it didn't go through the body. That is to say, it hardly consumed any Saber Essence.
"Rise!"
Lin Fei shouted lowly. Instantly, Lin Fei step by step, as if there were steps under his feet, walked into the void. The higher he walked, the smoother he walked. It was almost like instinct.
"This is the Dao Body! This is Martial Saint! Today, I have successfully built my foundation and have become a Martial Saint!"
Even though Lin Fei has always been very calm and composed, at this moment, he couldn't help but howl towards the sky. His howling sound instantly spread throughout the Nine Profound Sect.
Lin Fei's gaze naturally could see down below all the people under the Ancestral Master Peak at a glance.
Lin Fei took step by step, walking in the air, stepping into the void. He walked down from the sky.
Under the Ancestral Master Peak, hearing Lin Fei's long howl, Zhao Kongming and the sect master, among others, immediately awakened. They looked in the direction of the Ancestral Master Peak abruptly.
But at this sight, even martial artists like Zhao Kongming and the sect master who have seen and known a lot, widened their eyes. There was a look of disbelief in their eyes.
What did they see?
Lin Fei, surprisingly, walked down the void step by step as if there were invisible stairs in the void. But, how could there be stairs in the void?
At this moment, it seemed as if their cognition was overturned. Only Zhao Kongming had a flash of insight in his mind as if he had thought of something.
"Walking in the air, stepping in the void. This is a characteristic of a Martial Saint! A martial artist builds his foundation, becomes a Martial Saint, and has all kinds of incredible means. Among them, walking in the air and stepping in the void are the most basic means! Lin Fei has become a Martial Saint!"
Zhao Kongming's body began to tremble from excitement.
A Martial Saint! The Nine Profound Sect had finally given birth to a real Martial Saint! The Great Chang had also once again given birth to a Martial Saint!
The Nine Profound Sect was going to rise! The martial arts were going to rise!
