When Xu Yan arrived home, the living room had already been repaired. The renovation team was quite efficient.
After putting the book on the table in the living room, Xu Yan went to take a shower. After running for dozens of kilometers, Xu Yan did not feel tired. However, the sweat on his body mixed with the dust on the road made Xu Yan feel uncomfortable.
After taking a shower, Xu Yan lazily lay on the sofa and picked up the book to read.
This book seemed to be only one of a series of books. This book was dedicated to the realm of ancient martial artists.
In ancient times, martial arts flourished and powerful martial artists emerged one after another.
At that time, a Supreme Grandmaster could barely be considered an expert. Only a Martial Sage who had broken the shackles of the human body could be called an expert.
After the Martial Sage was the Human Celestial Realm. The book was basically the same as what the monk had said. The strength of a Human Celestial Realm expert was unfathomable.
Their power was unpredictable.
However, the book also introduced some details of the Human Celestial Realm. For example, a Martial Sage had to convert all the inner strength in his body into spiritual opportunity. Then, when he broke through to the Human Celestial Realm, the spiritual opportunity would completely transform his body. The sign of success was that he no longer needed to eat and breathe. He could absorb the mysterious energy from the space to maintain his physical activities. His body would also reach the Ice Skin Jade Bones, and he would be free of dust.
The process of sublimation was called Celestial Foundation. The body after sublimation was called Celestial Body.
After reaching the Human Celestial Realm, martial artists were very different from ordinary humans. They were not the same species.
A Human Celestial could fly in the sky and travel through the void. It was really a carefree life.
This was the description of the Human Celestial Realm in the book. It seemed that the author of this book highly respected the Human Celestial Realm experts.
Flying in the sky and traveling through the void. It seemed that the Human Celestial Realm was much stronger than Xu Yan had imagined.
Originally, Xu Yan thought that a Martial Sage was equivalent to a Heaven Stage in the special department. A Human Celestial was equivalent to a Legend. Now that he thought about it, a Human Celestial was definitely stronger than a Legend.
Moreover, it was much stronger!
Thinking of this, Xu Yan could not wait to reach the Human Celestial Realm. He wanted to see how strong a Human Celestial Realm expert was.
Unfortunately, Xu Yan was still a Martial Sage. He could only reach the Martial Sage Realm tonight. He would wait until his body adapted to the new realm.
Yes!
After the night's battle and half an hour of high-speed running, Xu Yan's control over his body had reached perfection. He could try to improve it again!
Opening the panel, a transparent screen appeared in front of Xu Yan.
Host: Xu Yan
Modification Value: 2358
Skill Method: Iron Cloak Skill (Limit) +
Xu Yan focused his attention on the [+] symbol behind the Iron Cloak Technique. A warm current rushed into his body, and the interface became blurry.
Unlike the previous times, this heat flow was not distributed throughout Xu Yan's body. Instead, it drilled into the depths of Xu Yan's body as if it had disappeared.
Just as Xu Yan was feeling strange, a few seconds later, a muffled sound came from the depths of Xu Yan's body. Xu Yan felt his body suddenly become lighter, as if he had unloaded a heavy burden!
Following that, a golden aura surged out from the depths of his body. This golden aura wandered around his body. Every time it wandered to a certain part of his body, the tensed muscles would gradually relax. However, the strength in the muscles did not decrease. Instead, the strength in the muscles increased!
Feeling the golden aura in his body, Xu Yan understood. This aura was the Spiritual Opportunity mentioned in the book!
As the Spiritual Opportunity wandered around his body, the tensed muscles in his body gradually relaxed. Xu Yan felt a sense of relaxation that he had not felt in a long time.
He opened the interface. Following the completion of the enhancement, the blurry interface had become clear again.
Host: Xu Yan
Modification Value: 2326
Skill Method: Iron Cloak Skill (Sublimation) +
Now that the Iron Cloak Technique had reached the Sublimate level, the Modification Points required had doubled, reaching 32 Modification Points. It seemed that Xu Yan's guess was correct. Every time the Iron Cloak Technique leveled up, the Modification Points required would double.
This meant that he could upgrade it 5 more times!
However, the Modification Value would increase in the future. Collecting Modification Value was still his top priority.
After feeling the strength in his body, Xu Yan went back to his bedroom to sleep.
Xu Yan was unable to control the sudden increase in his strength. He could only adapt to the changes in his body by sleeping. Only then could he barely control his body the next day.
Nothing happened that night. However, the next morning, Xu Yan was woken up by a phone call.
Xu Yan picked up the phone. It was Zhao Gongming.
He clicked on the call and Zhao Gongming's anxious voice came from the other side.
"Xu Yan!
Are you in Cangzhou? "
"Yes, what's wrong?
Why are you calling me so early in the morning? "Xu Yan rubbed his eyes and asked curiously.
"You still don't know?
Look outside from the window and you'll know! "
"Outside?
What's going on outside?
I'll go take a look. "
As he spoke, Xu Yan stood up from the bed and walked to the window. He pulled open the curtains and looked outside.
He saw a vast expanse of white fog outside.
"What a thick fog!
I can't even see the commercial building opposite the community, "Xu Yan exclaimed.
Xu Yan had never seen such a thick fog in his life. If he were to walk on the street, he probably wouldn't even be able to see people three meters away!
"Yes!
It's this fog. Don't you feel that this fog is a little strange? "
"Strange?
This fog is indeed a little thick, but I don't feel any danger. "Xu Yan felt a little strange.
"Of course, there's no danger now because this freak has not fully developed. When it fully develops, it will be the time of Cangzhou's destruction!" Zhao Gongming said solemnly.
"Destroy Cangzhou?!
What exactly is this fog? "Xu Yan was a little shocked. This fog could destroy Cangzhou?
"This is a city-destroying freak, Blood Fog!" Zhao Gongming said in a low voice.
"It's actually a city-destroying freak?
Interesting! "
Xu Yan touched his chin and continued, "Since you know about this city-destroying freak, what's the corresponding solution?"
"The solution is to find the core of this freak in the fog before it fully develops and then destroy it!" Zhao Gongming said.
"Since you already have a solution, why are you calling me?" Xu Yan asked curiously.
"Actually, I'm calling you because we don't have enough manpower. This time, the Blood Fog's range is too large. The teams near Cangzhou have already been involved, but there are still too few of them. That's why I thought of you." Zhao Gongming was a little embarrassed. After all, Xu Yan was not a member of the special department.
After all, in Zhao Gongming's impression, Xu Yan was just a metahuman who had just reached Earth-tier. He felt quite apologetic about letting him participate in a city-destroying freak the first time he asked him for help.
"So you want me to be your coolie. However, since a city-destroying freak can only be dealt with by a Heaven-tier metahuman, isn't it suicide for an Earth-tier metahuman like me to go?" Xu Yan asked.
