The God of War.

"Haha, no need. Originally I didn't want to save you either, because I've been keeping an eye on that lone Flame Wolf for a long time. I didn't expect you to intervene. Maybe it was God's will to help me. If you hadn't intervened, I might have been the one attacked or injured."

Lin Fei spoke the truth without hiding anything in his mind.

The actual situation was like this. If Lin Fei was in front, it would be hard to say whether he could get out successfully. Although he could use the Shadow Step to avoid the attacks of the Flame Wolves, they relied on their advantage in numbers and would always suffer minor injuries.

“No matter what, I still want to thank you for saving me. I should always thank you for saving my life. My name is Tianlin. If there is anything I can help you with in the future, please don’t be too polite!” Tianlin is also a really generous girl. Although Lin Fei’s cultivation is only the sixth level of foundation building, it is rare in the world of martial arts to risk one’s life to save a stranger.

"Lin Fei!" Seeing Tianlin so happy, Lin Fei also gave his name.

After all, a man should always have the tolerance of a man. If he always weighs up and down over trivial matters, he is not a man at all.

"Are you also here for the mission? So what are you going to do next?" Lin Fei asked.

They are all really cool people, and we all know each other, so why not know more?

"I don't know either. Let's just wait and see. Somehow, from my experience, the Flame Wolves seem to be getting smarter. You know, today they also learned how to set traps. It seems that their intelligence has also improved significantly." Although the girl did not show panic, Lin Fei clearly saw the worry and uneasiness that flashed across her eyes.

"I don't think so. It takes time for a demon beast to improve its intelligence. Maybe their rulers have become smarter, or maybe something has happened or is about to happen in their territory, so they have become so cautious."

Lin Fei glanced at Tian Lin after he finished speaking, and then continued: "Are you interested? I want to go to the center of the Flame Wolf and see if I can find something."

After saying that, Lin Fei looked at Tian Lin with a questioning look.

Tianlin has reached the spiritual realm. Lin Fei knows that with a spiritual person around him, many things will be much easier.

As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers, especially in places where monsters are rampant. When one person can't handle it, having someone around to help may solve many problems. Besides, exploration is a very dangerous thing.

Tianlin was silent for a while, then looked at Lin Fei. She didn't want to agree to Lin Fei at first. After all, being a man and a woman, there were always many things that were inconvenient. But then she thought about how Lin Fei had just saved her, and not agreeing would go against her own wishes. Finally, she thought about it over and over again for a while before she answered Lin Fei.

"Since you saved me, I agree to explore the territory of the Flame Wolf with you."

"However, there are some things I need to explain. What is going to happen next may be very dangerous. You know that the Flame Wolf is not easy to deal with. In the next operation, the two of us must trust each other. Otherwise, I don't want to take my life as a joke."

"Okay, I agree!" Lin Fei seemed very happy, because this was his second nominal friend he met outside after Miss Yang.

It is a moral obligation to stand up for a friend. However, when fulfilling this moral obligation, the person involved should also consider whether it is meaningful and what consequences it will bring to oneself.

These are all things to consider and must be considered.

Now that they had determined what they were going to do, they discussed how to proceed to the next step and find out the reason for the Flame Wolf's transformation. The next step was to hunt down a Flame Wolf and complete the first mission.

Soon, the two of them slowly headed towards the center of the Flame Wolf's territory according to the agreed route.

To the north of Cangming Mountain is a red land with extremely lush heat-attribute plants, and the Flame Wolf is an animal of fire attribute. The two creatures complement each other and take what they need. The Flame Wolf continues to grow stronger on this land and eventually develops into the master of this land.

Some people estimated that the Flame Wolf leader should have reached the peak of the human spiritual realm or higher, and had developed at least some spiritual intelligence. However, this was only a guess, and no one had actually seen this leader.

Lin Fei and the other person concealed their auras extremely well and quietly advanced towards the center of the Flame Wolf under the cover of night. Because they could not act openly, they could only slowly move towards the inner circle of the Flame Wolf's territory while avoiding the Flame Wolf. As they advanced, they found that the division of labor within the Flame Wolf was becoming more and more clear and organized.

Those on patrol, doing odd jobs, and in command each carry out the orders of their superiors according to their own work tasks without interfering with each other.

Although they have no intelligence, Lin Fei sees that they are more obedient and simpler than intelligent humans.

"There must be something wrong here." Lin Fei became more certain of his original thoughts.

After a night, the two could only enter the inner circle of the Flame Wolf for more than 20 miles. Tianlin followed Lin Fei and sneaked all night. Tianlin was a girl after all, and seemed a little tired.

As day approached, in order to avoid being discovered by the Fire Wolf, the two found a cave to hide in. They sealed the entrance with something, leaving only a thin gap to observe the movements outside.

After not sleeping all night, Tianlin took out the spirit stone and practiced for a while. After replenishing some spiritual energy, he fell asleep leaning against the cave.

Lin Fei did not sleep. His cultivation was on the verge of a breakthrough, and he decided to take this opportunity to break through to the seventh level of foundation building.

Taking out ten spirit stones, Lin Fei started to practice the Heaven Swallowing Divine Art in a slightly wider place in the cave. This was the first time that Lin Fei practiced the Heaven Swallowing Divine Art. However, before this, Lin Fei had tried to imitate the Heaven Swallowing Divine Art many times to practice the movement of his tendons and veins, which brought him quite a surprise.

According to the requirements of practicing the magic skills, Lin Fei decided to use the spiritual liquid to completely cleanse and temper his body first, strengthen his body for the last time before breaking through, strengthen his body to the extreme, and then carry out another comprehensive cleansing. After everything comes naturally, he will finally break through the realm and stabilize his cultivation at the seventh level of foundation building.

In this way, when one breaks through to the seventh level of foundation building, there will be no deficiencies or hidden dangers in the body and cultivation, otherwise it will cause great obstacles and deficiencies in subsequent cultivation.

Lin Fei estimated that it would take at least two to three days from tempering to completing the breakthrough and stabilizing his cultivation. Before entering the territory of the Flame Wolf, Lin Fei told Tian Lin about this. Tian Lin agreed with Lin Fei's breakthrough and was willing to protect Lin Fei.

This is also one of the reasons why Lin Fei is willing to use his magical skills in front of Tianlin to make a breakthrough.

The Heaven-Swallowing Divine Art is not like ordinary martial arts. It has extremely high requirements on the body of the practitioner, and also has special requirements on the speed and purity of the circulation of spiritual energy. If the practitioner's body cannot reach the required strength, it is possible to suffer irreversible damage during the practice, at the very least, the tendons and veins will be destroyed, and at worst, the body will explode and die.

This is also the important reason why Lin Fei thoroughly tempered, strengthened and cleansed his body before breaking through.

Generally, cultivators use elixirs and spiritual herbs to temper their bodies. In the foundation-building stage, the cultivators' Dantian stores spiritual energy. However, due to the differences in people's talents and bodies, the concentration and precision of spiritual energy in the Dantian vary. It is precisely because of this that cultivators at the same level have different attack power and strength. However, cultivators like Lin Fei who can turn the spiritual energy in their Dantian into liquid in the foundation-building stage can be said to be very rare, less than one in a million.

The effect of liquefied spiritual liquid on tempering the body is completely different from that of gaseous spiritual energy. What's more, the spiritual liquid in Lin Fei's dantian is refined and compressed by the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Cauldron, so the tempering effect is thousands of times stronger than that of ordinary spiritual energy.

The spiritual fluid entered into all the tendons and veins, and then madly expanded and strengthened Lin Fei's tendons and veins. Soon, the pain from various parts of the body was fed back to the brain. Lin Fei felt as if his body was cut by a knife. In order to prevent Tian Lin from seeing his current situation and in order to prevent the outside world from feeling him, Lin Fei had to force himself to suppress himself and not let himself roar when the pain was unbearable. If you saw Lin Fei at this time, you would definitely see that Lin Fei at this time was no longer Lin Fei, but a monster that was about to twist into a pile of meat.

While Lin Fei's body was being tempered, the various tissues and veins in his body were also frantically absorbing the spiritual fluid and expelling various impurities from the body.

After an hour of training, Lin Fei felt the pain finally begin to ease, and slowly, his body began to return to its original state. Lin Fei then sat up from lying on the ground.

Lin Fei looked at himself. At this moment, his body tissues and bones had undergone earth-shaking changes. The originally silver-white bones had turned light gold, and on the bones, an illusory pattern was being generated and evolved, like an array pattern, floating on the bones, appearing and disappearing. Although Lin Fei had learned many runes and array patterns from Liu Wujiu, now he couldn't understand what level of runes were on his bones.

Lin Fei knew that the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Cauldron should be a real divine artifact, so he was sure that this was definitely a divine pattern, because these runes were inextricably linked to the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Cauldron.

Lin Fei didn't know how powerful the divine runes were, but judging from the level division, the divine level was undoubtedly the highest level. In this continent, no one had ever seen a rune higher than the divine level.

Lin Fei was extremely excited. He could imagine how strong the bones and muscles strengthened by the divine patterns would be.

Another hour passed, and Lin Fei's bones were still undergoing incredible changes. At the same time, Lin Fei's muscles and tendons were also undergoing unimaginable changes under the tempering of the spiritual liquid. A layer of black oil-like substance appeared on Lin Fei's body surface, which smelled fishy and unpleasant. The unpleasant smell woke up Tian Lin who was sleeping soundly.

Looking up at Lin Fei who was practicing, Tian Lin discovered that only a few hours had passed, and the changes that had taken place in Lin Fei at this moment compared to when he had just entered the cave could be described as abnormal.

"Perverted guy!" Tianlin cursed.

However, due to the unpleasant smell, Tianlin had to walk deeper into the cave until he could no longer smell the scent emanating from Lin Fei.

A day later, Lin Fei finally completed the extraction and cleansing of his body. He looked at the dirt on his body and then looked at Tianlin in the distance, smiled and shook his head.

He found a corner and wiped off the dirt on his body, then changed into clean clothes and sat down. Only then did he begin to break through his realm.

The Heaven-Swallowing Divine Art was running quietly, and Lin Fei discovered that the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Cauldron was running like a gluttonous mouth. No matter what kind of energy there was in the space, it was eaten up by it, and then entered Lin Fei's body, entered the Divine Cauldron, and was transformed into golden spiritual liquid which entered Lin Fei's Dantian.

As the spiritual liquid in the Dantian increased, the color of the divine tripod itself also changed. Flowing lines began to appear on the originally golden surface.

Lin Fei couldn't understand the Heaven Devouring Cauldron at all. He only felt that a huge vortex had formed around his body. The spiritual energy and various unknown substances from the outside world entered the cave from some invisible cracks and the roots of the trees, and then all entered Lin Fei's Dantian.

Seeing this scene, Tianlin's mouth opened wide in shock. She even found that the spiritual energy in her body began to flow out and entered the vortex around Lin Fei.

She had no choice but to continue going deeper into the cave. Fortunately, the cave was deep enough, otherwise, she would have to rush out of the cave. She was sure that if she didn't leave here, the spiritual energy in her body would be completely absorbed by Lin Fei.

"This pervert, what kind of martial arts did he practice? It's so powerful. No wonder the attack he launched at the sixth level of foundation building can be comparable to that of a spiritual being!" After leaving the area where Lin Fei was, Tian Lin cursed again, but there was nothing he could do. He could only watch Lin Fei sucking and swallowing like crazy, and at the same time, he was happy for Lin Fei.

Along the way, the two went from being strangers to getting to know each other, and Tianlin developed some feelings for this man who was younger than her in age and realm.

As for what this good feeling is, Tianlin himself doesn't know.

At this time, outside the cave, a large amount of spiritual energy and fire energy rushed into the cave. Seeing the energy in their bodies being continuously drained away, the fire wolves in the range left the area one after another. If you look here from the air, you can see a huge suction hole sweeping up the energy from all around.

Some trees began to wither and break because they were too close to the cave.

It seemed as if a disaster was about to happen.

Lin Fei had no idea what was happening outside. As the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Cauldron absorbed spiritual liquid crazily, the amount of spiritual liquid in his dantian increased exponentially. But it was still not enough. To fill this incredible dantian, a small amount of energy was needed. Lin Fei took out fifty spiritual stones and crushed them, then took out a golden energy pill and swallowed it into his mouth.

The energy contained in the spirit stones and elixirs rushed into the dantian frantically, and the dantian was suddenly like a huge flood. Originally, this breakthrough was a natural result, and with these spirit stones and elixirs, Lin Fei's cultivation finally reached the brink of a breakthrough.

At this moment, with the help of the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Art, the spiritual liquid in the Dantian rushed into Lin Fei's tendons and veins like a flood, forcibly widening the tendons and veins while breaking through those that were blocked and not opened.

It's time. Lin Fei shouted: "Breakthrough!"

The spirit liquid rushed towards the last barrier like a mountain torrent. With the sound of glass breaking, Lin Fei's cultivation level naturally broke through to the seventh level of foundation building. At this time, Lin Fei felt stronger than ever before. Although he broke through from the sixth level to the seventh level, Lin Fei found that his palm power had increased from 10,000 jin to 50,000 jin, which means it was five times stronger.

What made Lin Fei most happy was that the spiritual liquid in his Dantian had grown from a small pool into a large pond. Lin Fei estimated that if he continued at this trend and reached the spiritual stage, his Dantian would at least be as powerful as rivers and lakes.

The only thing that made Lin Fei feel helpless was that every time he increased his cultivation level, he would need a huge amount of spiritual fluid. Lin Fei only now felt the importance of resources.

However, with the magical Heaven-Swallowing Divine Cauldron, which can absorb everything and transform it into its own spiritual liquid, this is the only thing that makes Lin Fei feel relieved.

After two days and one night of training, Lin Fei finally stabilized his cultivation at the middle seventh level of foundation building. At this time, Lin Fei really wanted to find a person or a monster to verify the level of his own ability.

At this time, another day began. Lin Fei stopped practicing, and Tianlin also walked out from the depths of the cave. After taking a look at Lin Fei who had just walked out of his practice, Tianlin was stunned.

Lin Fei at this moment was completely different from the Lin Fei who had just entered the cave. He had become much taller and his body had also changed a lot. His originally immature face had become much more mature, more like a grown man, steady and charming. His skin was as white as porcelain, smooth and elastic. Lin Fei at this moment had a fatal attraction to women, so much so that Tian Lin had the urge to pounce on him and hug him.

"Damn it!" Tianlin forced himself to erase the thoughts from his mind and walked up.

The thought was erased, but the blush left on her face was still caught by the sharp-eyed Lin Fei.
