Lin Tuo was very disappointed.

In fact, he was looking forward to it when he saw that the aura of this first-class master of the Sheng Kingdom was harmonious and in harmony with the mountain peaks.

Because he knew very well that this was a state he had not yet reached. Perhaps, Wang Xundao could find a way to break through the body tempering bottleneck.

However, when he used an unprecedented serious attitude and consumed nearly a hundred ether points to create this sword light, he realized that his expectations had been disappointed, because Wang Xundao's response method did not exceed his expectations...

…

Through the mental pulling of ether... or vitality, it is released from the body and used to a certain extent...

Well, to be honest, being able to condense the ether into such a strong protective layer in such a short period of time is enough to show that Wang Xundao has mastered power to a very fine level, and is much better than himself.

If he had as much ether in his body as Lin Tuo, then this blow would probably be in vain...

But the problem is...this is not essentially different from Huabingquan.

Yes, Wang Xundao's use and level of power are actually no different from Lin Tuo's. The only difference between them is that one has more reserves and the other has more skills, that's all.

Therefore, without further questioning, Lin Tuo already understood that the opponent also did not break through the bottleneck of body tempering, but was blocked by the invisible wall.

If it were replaced by the power system of this world, Lin Tuo would be equivalent to a first-level high-level person with slightly inferior skills but extremely strong power.

"It turns out you haven't broken the body tempering bottleneck either."

Lin Tuo thought to himself, then sighed, a little disappointed.

…

Mountain.

The smoke and dust were slowly dissipating, but the entire Dongshan was as quiet as if a silence spell had been cast. Everyone looked at the scene in shock, feeling that their own perceptions had been broken.

The first-grade grandmaster who had stood on the mainland for decades without a single defeat actually... lost?

There is no room for excuse. The defeat was so clean and tidy that it is difficult to explain even by underestimating the enemy. But how is this possible?

Especially when everyone heard Lin Tuo's sigh, they felt even more absent-minded.

"It turns out that Yipin is just like this..."

"that is it……"

If someone had said this before, they would have been ridiculed by everyone. After all, only how many first-class titles have been produced in the past hundreds of years?

To comment on Yipinjing with such a disappointed tone is a kind of ignorant and arrogant.

However, at this moment, no one can fight back against these words.

Who is this young man covering his figure with a cloak?

Or a demon?

It's a demon... it must be a demon... But when did the demon clan become so good at using vitality?

No, this is not a question that needs to be considered at the moment. The question is, if he is really a demon, then even Wang Xundao has failed, who can resist him?

You know, the Emperor of Dasheng Kingdom is here.

Thinking of this, people's faces turned a little pale, and fear suddenly rose in their hearts. Until the next second, Wang Xundao, coughing blood, staggered out of the smoke:

"Who...are you?"

At this moment, the first-level grand master looked quite embarrassed, his clean and elegant robes were in tatters, a wisp of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and his breath was disordered.

However, it can be seen that his injury is not very serious - Lin Tuo did not attack any vital points after all.

However, compared to his appearance, what is truly moving is the eyes of this top powerhouse that are almost bursting with light.

After dealing with monsters all his life, he was sure with just the flash of Lin Tuo's sword that the person in front of him was definitely not a big monster in disguise, but a human being.

It has been many years since he met someone who could hurt him.

At this moment, Wang Xundao was not depressed at all, but his tone was urgent.

In the chest, the heart beats like thunder.

If he hadn't been afraid of Lin Tuo's power, he would have even wanted to rush over and ask him about his origins and... the source of that power.

Perhaps, this is the opportunity for breakthrough that he has been waiting for for more than ten years.

"What you want to ask about is probably not my identity, but something else." Lin Tuo looked at the old master's expression and could probably guess what he was thinking.

"Yes." Wang Xundao didn't even wipe the corners of his mouth. He just took a breath, looked deeply at the mysterious man not far ahead, and said in an extremely serious tone:

"Your Excellency does not want to disclose your identity. Wang does not dare to force me. It's just that I have been trapped in the first rank for many years and cannot make any progress. No matter how much I practice, I have not made any progress. I am meeting an expert today. I hope you can give me some advice.

I can’t thank you enough!”

I also want to ask this question... Lin Tuo sighed in his heart, looking at the other party, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.

The difference is that facing the bottleneck of body tempering, he still has a lot of time to experiment and explore, but Wang Xundao is already old.

Thinking of this, Lin Tuo was ready to make some random remarks and then leave. But the moment he opened his mouth, something moved in his heart. So, everyone saw this mysterious strong man was silent for a while, and then said:

"You want to know?"

Wang Xundao's heart was surging and his body was trembling slightly: "Think!"

"Then just wait patiently. You will know soon."

Listening to the words coming from the black cloak, everyone present was stunned for a moment, a little confused and didn't understand what it meant.

However, Lin Tuo stopped explaining. After speaking, he immediately turned around and headed down the mountain.

"Your Excellency..." Wang Xundao wanted to ask more, but he hesitated for a moment.

As for the guards and the powerful Qin Tianjian, they had dispersed earlier.

It wasn't until Lin Tuo walked down the mountain path that the first-level master finally eagerly stepped forward to catch up. However, he only saw Lin Tuo's back leaping up, flying high into the sky, and then suddenly disappearing.

…

…

After a while.

Leaving the mountain, in the study room, Lin Tuo slowly took his right hand back from the sand tray and sighed softly.

"It seems that the body tempering bottleneck is not my illusion, but a real existence. In this case, we can only make the next step. Since simply passing down the cultivation method is not enough, let's add another fire."

Thinking about it, he turned his head and looked at the notebook spread out on the desk, then made up his mind, stepped out of the door, and shouted: "Huaxi!"

"Teacher?" A head suddenly popped out of the window next door.

"Go find some rocks for me."

…

…

Fifteen minutes later.

There were more than a dozen stones of various sizes on the table in Lin Tuo's study, all of which had been washed clean. Well, according to his request, they were only as big as a palm.

The surface is smooth.

After a brief selection, Lin Tuo picked up one of the oval, pebble-like black stones and rubbed it: "It's you."

Putting away the other stones and placing only this one on the table, Lin Tuo took out a piece of white, wordless paper and spread it on the table.

He raised his right hand, condensed a blade with ether on his fingertips, and lightly scratched the palm of his left hand, and blood immediately overflowed.

Frowning slightly, Lin Tuo kept moving. He immediately picked up the thinnest brush, dipped it in the blood on his palm, and then drew on the paper according to the pattern in a magic book on the table.

In order to further promote the development of practice in the sand table.
