ENTERING THE CORE REGION

Li Meng eventually reached the end of the path. He felt like thousands of needles were piercing his body. These needles were slowly drilling through his body and entering in the form of thread-like tendrils. 

Li Meng bore the huge burden of pain coming from his body. It was surprising that his body was still incapable of handling energy like this even after being refined in so many ways. His last upgrade was the Batlle-Sovereign's blood from the Sovereign's hall. It has helped him improve his blood essence, life weapons, and even physique, enhanced twice previously.

He felt like he could crush Qi Emperors like crushing ants, yet the thunder here was able to refine his body to an even higher stage. The Keeper was silent ever since he encountered the old man outside the path. Li Meng assumed that he was a powerful hidden cultivator of the Thunder Academy.
