Chapter 13 Fifth Level of Refinement

The little lion also seemed to feel that Stephan had no malicious intent. Its little head kept sticking to Stephan's arm as if it was acting like a spoiled child.

"Alright, from today onwards, you'll be called Little Lion. You'll follow me from now on." Ye Xing gave Little Lion a name. Little Lion, on the other hand, happily stuck to Stephan.

The baby lion was just an interlude in Stephan's daily life. After adopting it for a week, Stephan realized that the baby lion's appetite was simply too big. In just a week's time, the baby lion's body had grown by more than half a meter, unbelievable.

During this week, all the lioness did was eat and sleep. Its physique grew sturdier and its appetite increased. Stephan was very happy to see it grow.

Stephan had also discovered that he could keep the little lion in the Martial God's Space. Furthermore, Stephan had given the lion a lot of Spring of Life. With the little lion's strong body, it was estimated that even a person at the third level of the Refinement Realm would not necessarily be able to defeat it.

Ever since the battle in the Natural Realm, Stephan had never gone to the Heavenly River Peak to cultivate again. He was afraid that the two of them would turn back. During this week, Stephan spent his time cultivating in the Martial God's Realm.

There were less than two months left before the Family Competition, and Stephan intended to raise his cultivation level first.

In the spacious Martial God Domain, the little lion lay on the ground and slept. Beside him, Stephan sat down cross-legged and entered a very ethereal state. His spiritual force filled the air around him and the spiritual energy absorbed by his dantian was constantly converted into spiritual force.

"It's time to break through." Stephan muttered to himself, his dark eyes glowing with a terrifying golden light.

Right at this moment, a terrifying vortex of spiritual energy formed above Stephan's head. His entire body was located below the vortex, wild spiritual energy constantly entering Stephan's Dantian.

"Let's work harder." Stephan felt that his Dantian had not yet reached its full state, so he suddenly increased the absorption power. The spiritual energy entered his Dantian at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As for his dantian, it was constantly converting spiritual energy. Stephan's entire body was suffused with spiritual energy, and the amount of spiritual energy inside his dantian grew more and more.

He continued to absorb until four hours later.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, Stephan's middle dantian was filled with spiritual power. At this time, Stephan controlled his spiritual power to enter his dantian, trying to gather all the spiritual power in his dantian.

The so-called 4th level of the Refinement Realm to the 5th level of the Refinement Realm was to condense the spiritual energy in one's dantian into a small spirit core. This spirit core would then be the source of spiritual energy for cultivation.

If he failed to condense the core, then he would probably never have the chance to do so again.

Most people used their spirit energy to condense a spirit core, but Stephan suddenly thought of using his mental energy to suppress and condense a spirit core.

Wisps of spiritual strength entered the Dantian, and the spiritual strength in the Dantian attempted to enter the local external force. In the end, the spiritual strength entered the Dantian completely and wrapped around the entire Dantian. It began to shrink step by step and suppress the spiritual strength.

"Ah..." Stephan felt an excruciating pain throughout his body. He almost fainted but gritted his teeth and endured the pain.

"You must hold on," Stephan said to himself.

The spiritual energy vortex above Stephan's head had also disappeared. His entire body was radiating a silvery white light.

At this moment, even the sleepy lion cub felt something amiss. It barked at Stephan a few times, its eyes filled with concern.

Stephan tried his best to control his spiritual power to suppress the spiritual power. The resistance of the spiritual power was becoming weaker and weaker. Stephan believed that it wouldn't take long before he could condense the spirit core.

Just like that, under the strong suppression of Stephan's mind energy, the spirit energy finally converged into one point and the spirit core was formed.

"Phew..." Stephan removed his spiritual force when he felt the formation of the Spirit Core. He heaved a sigh of relief, his forehead beaded with sweat. This was a sign that he had overused his spiritual force.

"I've finally broken through to the fifth level." Stephan stretched his body, feeling the immense power surging through his body. "What incredible power. I feel like even if I were to fight against Wilson right now, I would still be able to defeat him."

"Let's see the differences between the fifth level of Refinement." Having reached this point in his train of thought, Stephan began to inspect his body.

If he didn't look, he wouldn't have noticed. He was shocked to find that there were two Spirit Cores in his dantian, resisting each other. The two Spirit Cores emanated a completely opposite aura.

"What's going on? How can I have two Spirit Cores? Did my promotion fail?" Stephan's face turned pale at this thought, but then he calmed down.

I should have succeeded. Perhaps something unexpected happened during the process. Whatever, it's not bad for my body anyway. Having reached this point in his train of thought, Stephan felt at ease. Even if he had two Spirit Cores, it wouldn't be a big deal. Perhaps this was just a stroke of good fortune.

Wuwu...

Lion, who was standing beside Stephan, saw that Stephan was alright and cried out in joy. Then, it stuck its huge head to Stephan's arm.

"Let's go, Lion. I'll soak you in spring water." Ye Xingling waved at the lion. The lion seemed to be able to understand her and followed her.

One man and one lion bathed in the Spring of Life. The little lion liked the Spring of Life a lot and would constantly play within the Spring of Life.

Stephan, on the other hand, was lying in the Spring of Life, conversing with Martial.

"Wu, what is going on here?" Ye Xing asked in a low voice.

"Not simple, really not simple." Wu did not answer Stephan's question directly. Instead, he said something strange after examining Stephan's body.

"It is said that in ancient times, it was the world of the warriors. At that time, the warriors were omnipotent and omnipotent. But those great masters had two Spirit Cores instead of one. Anyone who could condense two Spirit Cores was destined to reach the top," Wu murmured as if he was recalling something. "Although your talent is not the best I have ever seen, what happened to you is the most miraculous thing I have ever seen. You can actually condense two Spirit Cores."

Hearing Martial's explanation, Stephan was completely relieved. It turned out that those who could condense two Spirit Cores had a higher starting point than others.

"However, don't get too full of yourself. Train properly. Monsters are most fearful of dying prematurely," reminded Wu. After saying that, he fell silent.

I'll definitely forge my own path to protect those I need to protect. Stephan clenched his fists and shouted in his heart.

"This is only the beginning."

While Stephan was cultivating in the Martial God Domain, a joyous event happened to the Yeager Family as well. Leon's eldest son, Bonnie, had broken through from the seventh level of Refinement to the eighth level of Refinement and truly became the strongest member of the younger generation of the Yeager Family.

In the beginning, some of the elders who supported others also supported Bonnie to get first place in the Family Competition.

There was no suspense at all, and it could simply be described as no suspense at all.

Even if Zoila's talent was extraordinary, the gap between the seventh level and the eighth level was negligible. No one believed that there would be a dark horse in this competition. Even if there was, Bonnie would crush his opponent with his cultivation of the eighth level.

The Yeager Family cheered for Bonnie. Although Stephan, the son of Tyler, had broken through to the fourth level of the Refinement Realm, they had long forgotten about it. Moreover, many people were not optimistic that Stephan would be able to break through to the fifth level of the Refinement Realm before the family competition.

They felt that even if Stephan broke through to the fifth level of Refinement, he would only be inviting humiliation upon himself.

Ever since Stephan broke through to the fifth level of Refinement, he had been practicing martial arts in the Martial God's Realm every day. He had long mastered the Shattering Rock Fist, mastered the first four fingers of the One Element Finger, and gained some inspiration for the fifth finger. As long as there was an opportunity, he would be able to master it.

Within the War God's Domain. Next to the Spring of Life.

Stephan displayed the first four fingers of the Yiyuan Finger over and over again, reflecting each other's brilliance.

"A single finger shakes the world."

"Defeat the world with two fingers."

"Third Finger, Spirit Mountain Pass."

"Fourth finger breaks the sky."

Four finger rays shot out in succession, each stronger than the last. When Stephan's figure came to a halt, a large rock in the distance made a shocking sound and shattered into pieces.

"I've already mastered the first 4 fingers of the Yiyuan Finger. If I can master the 5th finger, Universal Movement, it will be another big trump card of mine." Stephan carefully meditated on the technique of Yiyuan Finger.

All of a sudden, a gust of wind blew past. Stephan tapped the ground with the tip of his feet and moved continuously, leaving a series of afterimages. He waved his fingers constantly and shot out rays of light from his fingers.

"First Finger, Fifth Finger Move the Universe."

With a loud shout, the Spiritual Energy in Stephan's Spiritual Core suddenly gathered on his fist, and his Mental Energy also wrapped around the fist.

When the spiritual force was concentrated to the extreme, Stephan gently tapped the air with his right index finger. The spiritual force and spiritual force gathered on his fist were compressed into a single point and shot out from his right index finger.

When this finger ray shot to the distant stone, it did not emit the slightest sound. However, the stone was also undamaged.

"I've finally mastered the Yiyuan Finger," Stephan chuckled as he glanced at the stone.

Just as Stephan finished speaking, the rock that was hit by the finger in the distance exploded, sending dust flying everywhere.

"This is the foundation of the Yiyuan Finger. It can penetrate the surface and attack the inside directly. If you fight with the enemy, even if the enemy is wearing a protective armor, you can still attack the enemy's body through the armor." Stephan nodded with satisfaction and said softly.

There was only a week left before the annual competition of the Yeager Family. Stephan had also cultivated to the peak of the fifth level of Refinement and would soon break through to the sixth level of Refinement. His spiritual force had also increased a lot. Most importantly, he had mastered the Yiyuan Finger. This would be one of Stephan's trump cards.

"Bonnie, are you ready?" Stephan murmured to himself as he gazed at the boundless Martial God Domain.
