CHAPTER 433: CHAPTER 433, THE TENTH LEVEL

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Eight figures simultaneously punched out violently like dragons, with blue lightning changing the color of the air.

Bang bang bang...

The Guiyuan Realm Seventh Layer elder’s Silver Hook danced in his hand, encircling him like silver threads, turning all the blue Thunderous Fist Shadows into void.

For a moment, Chu Ming couldn’t handle him. The Guiyuan Realm Seventh Layer was indeed formidable, even though Chu Ming’s body refining power had reached ninety-two Dragon Power, defeating him wasn’t something that could be accomplished in a short time.

On Tuoba Gu’s end, the light golden light shield under Chu Ming’s Fist Force gradually rippled and expanded continuously, causing Tuoba Gu’s face to turn pale.

The Golden Round Pearl was an Earth Level High Tier Defensive Magical Treasure, but it also depended on who wielded it. If the Guiyuan Realm Seventh Layer elder wielded it, Chu Ming couldn’t break it in a short time.

But in Tuoba Gu’s hands, the result was entirely different.

"Thunder Water Dragon Annihilation!"

Shhh! Shhh! Shhh!

Chu Ming’s eight figures merged into one, his body stretched, his right hand clenched tightly, his right arm formed a bow stance, muscles bulging, and a wisp of purple flame flickering on his fist.

Boom!

Crack!

With a punch, space rippled, and a white halo spread out from Chu Ming’s fist towards the surroundings, terrifyingly scattering the light golden light shield into pieces.

"Lord Gu!"

The Guiyuan Realm Seventh Layer expert saw the light golden light shield shatter, panicked in his heart, and his Silver Hook turned into a stream of light shooting towards Chu Ming’s neck, aiming to save Lord Gu.

Puff...

Chu Ming grabbed out with his right hand, a giant handprint suddenly exploded, directly crushing Tuoba Gu’s physical body, annihilating both form and spirit.

However, at this moment, a silver light burst from behind Chu Ming, piercing him and shattering his form into pieces. But it was only Chu Ming’s residual shadow, as his speed was too fast.

"Chu Ming, you killed Lord Gu! The ancestor will never forgive you!!"

The Guiyuan Realm Seventh Layer elder’s face was fierce and sinister as he threatened, though his cowardice showed.

He knew the character of the ancestor of the Tuoba family well. This time, not only did he fail to kill Chu Ming, but with Tuoba Gu’s death, he couldn’t escape punishment even if he returned.

"So much nonsense!"

Shhh!

White waves rolled as a blue fist quickly enlarged in front of the elder’s eyes. The Fist Force caused pain like a blade on his face, forcing him to defend with all his might.

Ding ding ding...

Flesh fists clashed with the Silver Hook, sparks splashed endlessly. Chu Ming’s physical body was now incredibly strong; according to Chu Ming’s estimates, the force within his skin was equivalent to an Earth Level Top Tier Defense Armor. Injuring him would require at least Guiyuan Realm Seventh Layer invincible attack power.

However, Chu Ming also had a disadvantage. His body refining power had increased too rapidly, and he hadn’t fully adapted to this strength; otherwise, he would have already killed the elder.

The elder grew more terrified as they fought. Body Refining Martial Artists were known for being difficult to deal with. Generally, an equal-level Body Refining Martial Artist could fight off two or three Spirit Martial Artists.

As Chu Ming gradually adapted to his increased power, his punches became more precise, making it increasingly difficult for the elder to defend, feeling as if walking on thin ice, a slight mistake leading to death.

Bang!

The Silver Hook collided directly with Chu Ming’s right fist, causing white waves to surge, his right arm swiftly entwining, winding the Silver Hook around his arm, cold light touching his flesh.

The elder’s strength couldn’t compare to Chu Ming’s, causing his face to turn red and ears to burn, his gaze sinister as his left hand formed a claw, striking towards Chu Ming’s chest.

Chu Ming didn’t dodge, his left hand becoming a terrifying giant hand, grabbing fiercely at the elder, the air around exploding into gray streams darting everywhere.

Puff puff puff...

Blood splattered in the air, as Chu Ming’s claw exploded half of the elder’s body, leaving him gasping desperately.

With another palm strike, Chu Ming directly killed the elder, picking up the four Storage Rings. Without checking them, he immediately left Cold Wind City.

Since Tuoba Gu and the others ambushed him here, it meant his whereabouts were exposed to the Tuoba family’s scrutiny. Upon noticing Tuoba Gu’s disappearance, the Tuoba family would surely send more to kill him, leaving Cold Wind City was the only option.

On his way, Chu Ming checked the four Storage Rings and found Tuoba Gu was the richest; his Storage Ring contained over two million Middle Grade Spirit Stones and over one hundred million Lower Grade Spirit Stones. This wealth almost matched a Guiyuan Realm Eighth Layer expert’s entire fortune. Considering the elder’s respect, Chu Ming realized Tuoba Gu was no ordinary person.

Apart from Spirit Stones, Tuoba Gu’s Storage Ring also contained several magical treasures, including the golden round pearl.

Shhh!

Chu Ming’s speed was incredibly fast, allowing him to reach the Sword Domain in two months.

On the way, he refined blood pearls and absorbed spiritual power from Middle Grade Spirit Stones to enhance his cultivation.

After refining all the blood pearls of the Four-tailed Black Cat Demon, his body power had reached one hundred fifty-seven Dragon Power, and the Primordial Body Refining Technique entered the seventh layer middle stage.

At this point, his flesh particles had completely transformed, with desolate power resembling webs connecting his flesh particles into one piece, indicating a terrifying transformation once all particles were connected.

He didn’t continue refining the Five-tailed Black Cat Demon’s blood pearls. With days of rapid body refining power enhancement, his combat strength was barely enough to contend with Guiyuan Realm Eighth Layer experts, though defeating them was still impossible.

Guiyuan Realm Eighth Layer experts usually had their intent cultivated to Tier Seven or Eight, each tier’s enhancement was a qualitative change, doubling combat power.

Besides refining blood pearls, Chu Ming deduced the tenth layer of the Pure Essence Sword Qi Technique, flashes of lightning crossing his mind. As its name implied, this technique was deeply connected with Sword Dao.

With the Sword Scripture’s assistance and his unparalleled soul power, Chu Ming’s deduction of the tenth layer was highly efficient, achieving ninety percent in a month.

In a cave, Chu Ming sat on the ground, white light enveloping his body, sword light emanating from him, filling his body with sharpness, constructed seemingly of Sword Intent.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

A white glow rose from Chu Ming, as his dantian expanded suddenly, his cultivation skyrocketing from True Dao Ninth Layer Middle Stage to Late Stage, continuing to climb, reaching the peak of the True Dao Realm within breaths.
