Beauty and the Bodyguard

The only thing that made Lin Yi feel a little sad was that although the sign was very strong, he couldn\'t really break through after taking the aftereffects. He only stayed at the sign level and didn\'t seem to be able to break through.

Lin Yi knew that this kind of state wouldn\'t last long-if he couldn\'t break through before it disappeared, he\'d have to wait for the next sign, and he didn\'t know when that would happen. Training was like sailing against the current-there were many cases of people falling into a quagmire and not making any progress.

"Wealth comes from danger. It seems like you can only take a little risk." The ghastly thing suggested.

"Understood." Lin Yi nodded. He\'d always been careful, but he\'d never turn down necessary risks. Just like now, there were only two ways for him to break through. The first was to take the Golden core, but he didn\'t plan on doing that, so he could only use the second method, which was to use the five elements killing intent in front of him to force out more potential!

If it was someone else, they wouldn\'t dare to do this, but Lin Yi could. Since he could withstand the five elements killing intent, he could naturally go one step further and try to get closer to the killing intent. Of course, the prerequisite was that he had to control the degree. Otherwise, it wouldn\'t be called stimulating one\'s potential, it would be suicide.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Yi moved to another platform. He was only able to reach the top of the five poisons swamp when he stood on this one, but now he was directly in the middle of the swamp. As expected, Lin Yi was immediately targeted by a Five Element killing intent.

If the five poisons swamp was a pond and the killing intent was the man-eating fish, then Lin Yi was the bait. When they were on the platform, Lin Yi was still the bait floating above the water, so the man-eating fish\'s ferocity wasn\'t triggered. At most, there would be a little splash, but now, the bait was directly thrown into the pond, and the man-eating fish\'s ferocity was revealed.

Perhaps it was because of Lin Yi\'s five-element spiritual roots, he had the same "smell" as the five-element killing intent, so the five-element killing intent didn\'t gather around him. Otherwise, Lin Yi would die even if he had ten thousand lives. Even so, just one five-element killing intent was enough to kill him.

Lin Yi was already tormented by the five-element killing intent, and now that he was facing it directly, he couldn\'t help but shiver. This was the instinct of a living creature in a life-or-death situation, and Lin Yi couldn\'t control it even if he wanted to, unless he was already dead.

"Be careful, don\'t go too far!" At this time, even the damn thing was scared. Although it was his suggestion, he couldn\'t stay calm at this moment. After all, he was on Lin Yi\'s body, and he knew how terrifying the five elements killing intent was. If he wasn\'t careful, he could die. If Lin Yi died, he would be in trouble too.

"I know," Lin Yi responded in a low voice. At the same time, the five-element killing intent slammed into his body. Lin Yi gritted his teeth until he bled. All the muscles in his body trembled like crazy. He already felt like he was being cut into a thousand pieces by the aftershock, but now, the pain was more than a hundred times more!

It\'s here! Under the extreme pain, the Qi in Lin Yi\'s body suddenly started to move crazily, spontaneously forming a resistance against the five elements killing Qi outside, and it uncontrollably increased rapidly-the opportunity to break through was here!

The thick wall in front of the late-stage golden core instantly loosened up under the Qi\'s crazy attack. The breakthrough was right in front of him, and Lin Yi didn\'t dare to delay. He quickly lowered his body and retreated from the five poisons swamp. Without saying anything, he jumped off the platform and sat down cross-legged, focusing on the breakthrough.

Firstly, he had to face the baptism of the five elements killing intent directly. That moment was already the limit that he could endure. Secondly, the breakthrough process could not be disturbed at all. Otherwise, he would be injured and suffer a backlash. In serious cases, he would go crazy and even die on the spot. The five elements killing intent could only be used to find an opportunity for a breakthrough. If he endured the baptism of the five elements killing intent while thinking about breaking through, he would simply be seeking his own death. Even if he was seeking death, it was not the way to look.

Everything was ready, and the east wind was here-Lin Yi\'s breakthrough was a success. In just an hour, he\'d been reborn without any danger, and his entire aura was new.

Although it seemed like there was only a thin line between the peak of the intermediate stage of the Golden core and the late stage of the Golden core, the meaning of the two was completely different. Previously, he was only a typical master of the Golden core stage, but now he had reached a level where he could look forward to a higher realm. Most cultivators had already begun to prepare for the next breakthrough to the nascent Soul Stage after entering the late stage of the Golden core stage. Chu bubai, whom he had met before, was an example.

This was the case for normal practitioners, but Lin Yi was at the peak of the Golden core stage, and it took him a lot more time to go from the late-stage to the full-stage of the Golden core stage. To him, the nascent Soul Stage was not far away.

Lin Yi took a deep breath as he felt the new energy in his body. He could feel that the increase in strength from peak mid-stage golden core to late-stage was not just a small one or two, it was a huge increase! Of course, Lin Yi didn\'t show too much joy.

It was Lin Yi\'s style to remain calm, not to mention that he\'d seen the West Mountain old sect, a Big Boss of evil cultivators, and the even scarier spirit beast guards. This little increase in strength was nothing to the Supreme beings like them, so Lin Yi naturally wouldn\'t be overjoyed with such a small breakthrough.

This trip to the South continent had opened Lin Yi\'s eyes. The levels he saw were much higher than before. Advanced golden core was just a small step, and there was still a long way to go.
