Chapter 204: Spirit and Form!

"Hou!"
An extremely realistic roar rumbled through the mountain peak like a thunder blast, causing everyone nearby to look up with shock.
A blast of Qi shot upwards into the clouds, scattering all the snowflakes in its path!
Bei Feng opened his eyes and spat out a breath which was as sharp as a sword. At the same time, a piece of leaf which was falling from the tree in the yard happened to fall right into the path of the burst of Qi, and was disintegrated into powder in an instant!
"Boom, rumble!"
Peals of thunderous sounds echoed out continuously from Bei Feng's body as a massive amount of Heaven and Earth Ling Qi surged towards him, filling all his cells!
'Is he breaking through again?!'
Danxia Zi looked at him with aghast. The number of people who had broken through to the Xiantian level with their fleshly body was simply too few. At the very least, there was none who appeared in Mount Longhu for the past 500 years. As such, he was also unsure about the current situation—whether or not Bei Feng was achieving a breakthrough.
Even so, he was certain of one thing. Bei Feng had taken yet another step forward!
The thunderous rumblings continued echoing out atop Mount Longhu, causing a bunch of Evolved Jing elders to rush over in a panic. However, they were all sent away by Danxia Zi to prevent them from disrupting Bei Feng's cultivation.
"Hou!"
The rumbling sounds drew lighter as time passed, and Bei Feng's eyes finally snapped open as a long roar burst forth from his throat!
The roar was exactly like that of a bear, and the sound of it lingered in the air for a long time without dissipating.
"Congratulations Fellow Daoist! Fellow Daoist's talent truly makes one gasp with admiration!"
Those were Danxia Zi's heartfelt words. He truly felt that Bei Feng's rate of improvement was too monstrous!
"I still have to thank Fellow Daoist for your help."
Bei Feng clasped his hands gratefully. If not for Danxia Zi's insights and the painting of the Giant Bear, he would not have grasped the complete Form and Will Bear Form Style so quickly.
After making some more small talk, Bei Feng bade his farewell, and Danxia Zi also nodded his head in understanding.
Bei Feng tapped his feet against the ground lightly, leaving a bowl sized hole on the ground as he disappeared into the distance.
Back in his room, Bei Feng inserted his perception inwards and examined his physique to determine the results of his breakthrough.
After about ten minutes, he finally retracted his mental power. The most obvious thing was that his blood and Qi had increased by about 30 percent! Only now was Bei Feng finally able to say that he was a true early stage Xiantian martial artist!
Previously, he may have appeared to be a Xiantian Lord on the surface. But now, the bonds between his muscles were strengthened and even his bones had become harder. The increased density was like the difference between cotton and steel. There was a vast difference in its essence!
Even his skeleton was stronger and every bone had a jade-like luster to it.
The bear represented power after all, while the Form and Will Fist manual was an internal martial technique which emphasized on cultivating and projecting internal strength outwards instead of gathering and relying on external forces.
"Gru, gru!"
Bei Feng's stomach was growling again. The strengthening of the body couldn't be done without proper nutrition. And where would all the nutrition come from? Right now, the only way was through the consumption of large amounts of high-energy food!
After requesting another young Daoist to bring in a bowl of sauce, Bei Feng took out a piece of Dark Jade Snowy Dragon King meat, cut it into thin slices and began eating it directly.
Only after a huge chunk of around 20 jin of meat entered his stomach did Bei Feng feel his hunger alleviating.
As Bei Feng's body grew stronger, his requirements with regards to food had grown as well. Right now, even under normal circumstances, he would still need to eat at least 7 to 8 jin of Dark Jade Snowy Dragon King meat to feel satisfied.
Having eaten and drunk to his fill, Bei Feng lay down on his bed and fell asleep. Waves of energy constantly rose out of his stomach, flowing to every part of his body that needed it.
As daylight fell upon the earth, the precipitation had also come to a stop. Pushing open the door to the yard, one could only see a blanket of white. The dried leaves on the trees had also fallen off completely and were strewn messily all over the ground.
The normally peaceful Mount Longhu had started to get more lively as a large group of guests arrived. Numerous luxurious cars rolled into the parking lot, quickly filling it up and extending into a long line along both sides of the road.
A few passerby even snapped a few pictures of this scene and uploaded it onto the internet, triggering a wave of interest.
"Brother Wu, you're here so early? Is that your granddaughter? She really grew up to be beautiful!"
"Haha, aren't you here early as well? This person is Uncle Fu, he carried you before when you were young."
Two middle-aged men looked at each other for a good moment as they stepped out of their respective cars before walking up with a laugh. Wu Yunshan gestured at the other man before him and introduced him.
"Hello, Uncle Fu."
Wu Yuqi smiled sweetly in greeting.
"Good, good, what a sensible girl. She's unlike that useless brat of mine. I don't even know where he ran off to the moment he got off the car."
Fu Jie Sheng smiled bitterly as he shook his head. Following that, he joined up with the people from the Wu family and headed up the mountain together.
Today was the inauguration day for the new abbot of Mount Longhu. Thus, all the influential clans and families of Jiangbei had rushed over.
However, not everybody was eligible to enter Mount Longhu. Only those clans with Evolved Jing masters were allowed entry. Furthermore, they could at most bring two other people with them.
Even so, the number of people gathered around the mountain foot was so big that one would wonder if Mount Longhu could accommodate them all.
"Damn brat, where the hell have you run off to? Didn't I tell you that we're going to Mount Longhu today? Hurry up and get your butt here immediately!"
Su Lin scolded as soon as the call connected. That wastrel of a son only knew how to fool around with women all day long. Why can't he learn to work and play with women at the same time, not neglecting either side like him?
"Dad, you're at Mount Longhu already?"
Su Bai answered with a shudder as he thought back to the nightmarish day yesterday. After Bei Feng and the young Daoist left, he had suffered quite a great deal at Mount Longhu. The two girls were still better off, but he was quite literally chucked out of the mountain.
"Come here right away and wait for me at the entrance!" Su Lin hollered into the phone.
"I'll be right there!"
Su Bai hurriedly stumbled out of bed and pulled on his clothes.
'Mount Longhu? I'll see if you still dare to treat me so roughly this time now that my dad is here!'
Su Bai gritted his teeth with anger as he got into his car which had been fixed and sent over.
"Eh? Why are there so many luxurious cars here today?" Su Bai thought aloud with puzzlement as he drove down the road in his Porsche. With just a brief scan of his surroundings, he could already see at least five, six super cars like Lamborghini and Ferrari speeding past him. Even Su Bai felt somewhat envious in his heart.
"What're they all driving so quickly for? Are you in a rush to get reincarnated?! I'll ram all you bastards to death!"
Su Bai cursed lowly as he stepped on the gas. But as he looked at his speedometer, he nearly puked a mouthful of blood in exasperation. He was already driving at 180 km/h, but he was still left eating the dust of those super cars.
About ten minutes later, Su Bai finally reached the entrance of Mount Longhu. Seeing the carpark completely packed with luxurious cars, he could only stop his car along the road.
'What is going on today? Is some illustrious character holding an event at Mount Longhu? But what the hell are these old grandpas and grannies here for?'
Su Bai looked around in confusion as he walked towards the waiting Su Lin.
"Dad!" Su Bai saw two figures walking towards him and he hurriedly went forward and called out respectfully.
With regards to his father, Su Bai still retained quite a bit of fear. He did not dare to behave too insolently before Su Lin.
"En, you came on time this time. What happened to your face?"
Su Lin revealed a rare smile as he looked at Su Bai. But seeing that the brat's face was a little swollen, he could not help but to ask.
"I was hit by an unruly civilian." Su Bai felt extremely annoyed as soon as this topic came up. At that moment, he could only grit his teeth and reply with a wronged expression.
"We'll talk about this when we return. We'll wait for the Province Governor to arrive first. This time, if I didn't happen to be posted at Lingxi city, the job would not have been given to me."
Without waiting for Su Bai to continue speaking, Su Lin moved over to the entrance and continued waiting patiently.
Su Bai felt some shock in his heart as he pondered. Which esteemed person was on the mountain that even the Province Governor had come personally?
Time passed slowly and although it was not snowing anymore, the weather was exceptionally chilly. After standing outside for half an hour, the three already felt their limbs going numb.
