Ye Xiao, who was hiding in the darkness, secretly nodded his head and at the same time, he thought, "Sigh, she is only about a year or two years older than me and she is already an Origin Core Realm expert. It is really infuriating when people compare themselves to each other."

"Humph!, I don't want to waste any more time with you." The young girl lightly frowned as she charged toward the Tyrant Bear with the sword in her hand. She channelled her Spirit Energy in her sword and a layer of white frost appeared on the sword.

Just as the Tyrant Bear was about to charge over, the green long sword in the young girl's hand was like a shooting star. With a 'sou' sound, it passed through the two bear claws and entered the stomach of the other party.

"Good sword art!" Ye Xiao could not help but praise it.

The Tyrant Bear falls to the ground with its eyes wide open. Sometime later, it died.

The young girl walked near the Tyrant Bear and dug out the core from its head and after resting for about fifteen minutes she left.

After the young girl left, Ye Xiao walked from behind the thick tree and slowly approached the corpse of Tyrant Bear. After looking here and there for a while, he enveloped the corpse of Tyrant Bear with his spirit energy and stored it on the first floor of Nine Story Pagoda.

The other eight floors are still not available for Ye Xiao because of his lack of strength. As he will cultivate and breakthrough to the next layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique, he can enter the next floor of Nine Story Pagoda.

The nine layers of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique are corresponding to the nine floors of Nine Story Pagoda. As he cultivates the various layers of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique he can enter the corresponding floor of the Nine Story Pagoda and use that floor as he wishes.

"I can sell the corpse of Tyrant Bear for quite a lot of money, hehe!"

After storing the corpse of the Tyrant Bear, just as he was about to leave, he saw a relatively obscure cave some distance away. Thinking about the dead Tyrant Bear, he came up with a vague answer. This cave was the home of the Tyrant Bear.

Ye Xiao carefully walked towards the cave. Standing at the entrance of the cave, a pure smell assaulted him.

Ye Xiao frowned and moved forward. After ten meters, a simple cave inside the cave appeared in his line of sight. The temperature of the cave was rather low, and on the ground, there were a few vines that were climbing up the walls of the cave. And on a vine, a crimson red fruit attracted his attention.

"This is?" Ye Xiao was startled, then slowly walked toward the vine. The fruit was as big as an infant's fist and it was sparkling. Ye Xiao could clearly feel a trace of spirit energy being emitted from the fruit.

"Spirit Origin Fruit"

The three words directly popped up in his mind.

He vaguely remembered the appearance of Spirit Origin Fruit. When he just started taking care of herbs in the medicine garden of the Silver Moon Sect, he once saw this Spirit Origin Fruit in the medicine garden.

This kind of fruit was extremely hard to find, and it was guarded by a powerful magical beast. If an expert of the First Stage of Qi Condensation Realm swallowed the Spirit Origin Fruit, he would directly level up by three or four levels reaching Fourth or Fifth Stages Of Qi Condensation Realm.

Ye Xiao was currently only at the Third Stage of Body Tempering Realm. If he swallowed this Spirit Origin Fruit, what kind of level would he reach?

Thinking about this, he carefully picked the Spirit Origin Fruit to form its vine. A light and elegant fragrance pervaded out from it.

Ye Xiao immediately sat down with his cross-legged on the ground and swallowed it. Immediately after, the spirit force contained within the Spirit Origin Fruit began to flow into Ye Xiao's limbs and bones, his entire body was flowing with dense gold light.

Ye Xiao channelled his spirit energy, guiding the spirit essence of the fruit's energy to flow through his body, to be absorbed and refined.

"I was careless" Ye Xiao suddenly felt that his body was about to explode from the energy of Spirit Origin Fruit.

This fruit was something only Qi Condensation Stage cultivators would dare to eat but Ye Xiao with his Third Stage of Body Tempering Realm swallowed it without bating his eyes.

He hurriedly started circulating the first layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique. Only after some time, his pain started to lessen.

"Roar!"

A dragon roar sounded out from within his sea of consciousness and all the spirit energy that was emitting from Spirit Origin fruit was devoured by the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon. After some time, all those spirit energies that were devoured by the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon began to slowly pour into his body by the divine dragon and he began to absorb it slowly.

After some time...

"BOOM!"

Fourth Stage of Body Tempering Realm

Fifth Stage of Body Tempering Realm

The sixth stage of Body Tempering Realm.....

After who knows how much time has passed. He continuously breakthrough and only stops after reaching the peak of Body Tempering.

"Ninth Stage of Body Tempering Realm"

Ye Xiao immediately became excited. He reached the Ninth Stage of Body Tempering Realm from the Third Stage of Body Tempering Realm in one leap.

A single Spirit Origin Fruit allowed his strength to rise by a large amount in such a short amount of time. Furthermore, Ye Xiao could still feel that his body has become much stronger than before.

Now, he has the confidence to fight against a cultivator of the Second Stage of Qi Condensation Realm.

Ye Xiao did not stay there any longer, as he got up and left toward the Lin Star City.

After walking for full three days did he crossed the Black Cloud Forest and reached the Lin Star City.
