"But with the current strength of my Inner Strength, at most I can only explore to this level. Delving into deeper changes of the Heavenly Beast bloodline requires me to become even stronger. Perhaps even the Gang Essence Realm wonāt suffice."
Ning Qi had to temporarily suppress these thoughts.
Following this.
The White Apeās strength seemed to change daily, the Body Tempering progress began to soar.
In just a few daysā time.
It had already broken through from Refining Organ Perfection to Marrow Refining.
Afterward, it advanced steadily, and the bloodline awakening appeared divinely aided.
At this rate, it might achieve Body Tempering Perfection by next year.
However, even now, as long as the White Ape reveals its Ape King true form, it can easily defeat most martial artists at Body Tempering Realm Perfection.
Luo Wentian and others came after hearing the news.
They all knew that the White Ape had awakened its bloodline.
Ning Qi didnāt hide this from them, after all, the White Apeās rapid growth during this period required a large amount of resources.
"Tiansheng, what kind of bloodline is it, that it becomes so powerful as soon as it awakens?"
The eyes of all the true disciples were filled with immense joy.
From afar, Yuan Tiancheng revealed the Ape King true form, full of power, astounding everyone, they all believed this was the White Apeās innate talent.
They searched through various records and dismissed most known ape-like Exotic Beast bloodlines.
Beasts like the Heaven-Reaching Ape, Iron-Armed Ape, White Giant Ape, Silver Ear Ape, etc., none matched what Yuan Tiancheng now revealed.
Ye Qinghe sighed and said:
"Among the myriad bloodlines of Exotic Beasts in the world, occasionally a unique one appears. Tiansheng might be such an Exotic Beast; we can only wait till the mentor exits seclusion to see if he recognizes it. Itās hard to believe that the little monkey who couldnāt even defeat a Long-armed Ape now has grown so strong."
The White Ape scratched his head naively.
Everyone praised him.
In their eyes, with such aptitude as the White Apeās, his future growth could surely become a significant asset for the True Martial Sect!
Ning Qi merely watched and smiled.
The White Ape, who originally had considerable strength, but had to hold back, can now openly display his skills. As long as the Stance Skill remains a secret, thereās no big issue with common Slaughter Martial Arts.
That only involves the use of strength.
But in the future, if one treads into the Inner Essence or Gang Essence levels, more caution is needed.
Regarding this.
The White Ape is also well aware.
Though he can be mischievous at times, he understands the weight of things.
Time passed.
The news of Yuan Tianchengās bloodline awakening caused quite a stir among the True Martial Sect disciples, everyone was thrilled and happy for him, though the White Ape had only shown the Ape King form to the true disciples.
Gradually.
The excitement subsided.
The White Ape still mingled with the disciples as before, but now with a new project: he could spar with the True Martial Sect disciples to increase his practical experience.
Yuan Tianchengās power advanced steadily.
Ning Qi was doing the same.
After the White Apeās bloodline awakening, he thoroughly investigated the changes of the Ape King form, constantly adjusting this Secret Technique.
Thus.
Before one knows it, itās already year-end.
This yearās True Martial Sect year-end competition seemed somewhat subdued, due to the previous events having greatly impacted the sect. Although the turmoil had gradually subsided, the disciples remained vigilant, fearing potential enemies were merely lulling them into complacency.
"The mentor hasnāt exited seclusion yet, I wonder if his state of mind is affected."
After the competition concluded, Ye Qinghe expressed some worry.
Taoist Longshan has been in seclusion for almost a year.
But at this moment.
Ning Qi was the first to gaze towards the rear mountain, followed by Jiang Baishan, and then countless true disciples.
Everyone sensed a special fluctuation.
Ning Qiās eyes were filled with joy.
"Could it be that the mentor is about to break through?"
