Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, North Courtyard encampment, Lin Tian's cave.

In front of Lin Tian was the fine powder of the spirit stone that had been used up. The thick powder was placed in front of Lin Tian and was several stories high.

But at this time, Lin Tian was still cultivating. After who knows how long, Lin Tian's body suddenly shook violently. The next moment, a huge light suddenly exploded out from within his body.

Lin Tian slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a mouthful of foul air. Feeling the surging power in his body, he softly said: "Finally, finally, it's the fifth level of the Aurous Core …"

But Lin Tian looked at the spirit stone slags in front of his eyes and couldn't help but be speechless: "This … .this three hundred thousand spirit stones is just going to end like this?"

Three hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones, which was the contribution points Lin Tian received from hunting the demon beasts. He had exchanged it for one hundred thousand and Hua Ruoyi had given him two hundred thousand spirit stones. His total was over three hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones.

It disappeared just like that …

Not to mention the demon beast blood essence that he had refined using the Great Art of Blood Solidification …

In total, from the first level of the Aurous Core Stage to the fifth level of the Aurous Core Stage, Lin Tian had only broken through the fourth level. However, he had refined more than 100 Rank 3 greater demons' blood essence and had also consumed 300,000 high grade spirit stones.

Based on this estimate, every time Lin Tian broke through a stage, he would have consumed about two hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones … …

If he were to calculate it this way, his body would truly be a bottomless pit …

At the same time that Lin Tian was somewhat shocked, he also became deeply worried for the future.

If the consumption continued, who could sustain such cultivation …

However, it was a good thing that the Great Blood Coagulation Art that he had obtained could help him survive for a while. After all, the Great Blood Coagulation Art only required the blood of demon beasts.

This wasn't difficult. Lin Tian could just soak in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range in the future and hunt demon beasts and use them to cultivate.

However, after breaking through to the fifth level, Lin Tian stopped cultivating. The fifth level was enough for him to deal with the situation that was coming up.

Haste made waste and Lin Tian had always sought stability. He had requested that every step he took be extremely firm and stable.

So, after reaching the fifth level of the Aurous Core Stage, Lin Tian decided that next, it was time to fight in actual combat and begin to consolidate his own realm.

Lin Tian packed up simply and directly dove into the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.

The purpose of entering the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range was to first fight with the demon beasts in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range. From then on, he would help Lin Tian consolidate his cultivation.

Another point was that with the Blood Solidification Realm in his possession, the high level demon beasts now were comparable to spirit stones to Lin Tian. The innumerable demon beasts in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range were his cultivation resources.

Of course, Lin Tian had another goal, and that was to train his martial arts.

Especially the spear art of the Dragon's Tomb.

Before Lin Tian, he had only practiced the first two moves because there seemed to be a limit to this martial art. Only when the first two moves, namely the Killing technique and the afterimage, were cultivated to the Great Perfection Stage would they be able to begin practicing the latter two moves.

This was because although the spear techniques of the Heavenly Dragon's Tomb were a complete system, they were all independent between each move.

Previously in the monster tide, Lin Tian had actually practiced the first two moves to the large success stage.

There was still some distance to complete mastery. However, this time around, it was just right for him to once again comprehend the two types of Spear Arts. He needed to quickly master the Spear Art to the perfection stage before beginning the next two moves.

Thinking of this, Lin Tian Deng felt that he was full of energy. He immediately rushed towards the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.

Lin Tian wasn't cultivating in the cave and the speed at which the Rank 2 Spirit Convergence Array was absorbing Spiritual Aura also slowed down.

All of the students who were closer to Lin Tian immediately felt that their cave began to slowly gather spirit energy …

Everyone was on the verge of tears of happiness.

"That Lin Kuang Devil has finally left …" Some almost cried tears of joy.

In this period of time that Lin Tian cultivated, their abode was no different from an ordinary abode. They couldn't gather any spirit energy at all, so they might as well not stay in this abode.

Who said that with a Spirit Convergence Array, the abode would be filled with spirit energy?

If there was no such thing as spiritual energy, the entire cave wouldn't be able to hold it in.

They almost wanted to leave this cave dwelling because Lin Tian's cave dwelling was practically berserk as it plundered the spirit energy in their cave …

Lin Tian did not know that the plot against him was about to come, nor did he know what the students in the cave were thinking. He only knew that the pressure on his cultivation would be extremely great.

After all, the Freshman Competition was about to begin!

"Bang!" A flower of blood suddenly exploded. Lin Tian's spear pierced through the head of a third level first rank demon beast. After that, he put the demon beast's corpse into the stone tablet.

This was already Lin Tian's third day in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.

Dozens of demon beasts had been hunted.

In these three days, Lin Tian continuously used Sky Dragon Burial's spear skills. Other than that, Lin Tian did not use a single martial skill. All of the martial arts were the two moves, Death Kill and Shadow.

However, Lin Tian always felt that it was a bit weird. It seemed like he was only missing a layer of paper from the Perfection Stage, but no matter how hard Lin Tian tried, that layer of paper was never broken.

Was it because the strength of the demonic beasts he had killed was too weak, that prevented him from unleashing his potential?

In the past few days, Lin Tian had encountered almost all demon beasts below the Third Stage Fifth Stage. In other words, they were demon beasts that were comparable to a human Fifth Stage Golden Core martial artist.

Lin Tian was an expert at the fifth level of the Aurous Core Stage. His strength was already much stronger than these demon beasts, so he did not waste much effort. Those demon beasts were all instantly killed with a single spear.

Lin Tian guessed that it was because of this that the effect couldn't be achieved.

"Do we still have to kill stronger demon beasts?" Lin Tian secretly said in his heart, but like this, he had to go deeper into the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.

Lin Tian looked at his surroundings.

This place was specifically designed for the students of the Northern Courtyard to cultivate and fight.

Generally speaking, the students of the Northern Courtyard could not surpass this boundary. This was because in the deeper parts of the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, there were even more powerful demon beasts. Some of them were top ferocious beasts and big demons.

For safety reasons, no one was allowed to enter the depths of the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.

In this area of the Northern Courtyard, there was a barrier. Firstly, it prevented the entry of even stronger demonic beasts, and secondly, it prevented the students of the Northern Courtyard from leaving this area.

The current Lin Tian was standing at the boundary. He could already see the faint white barrier that was placed around him.

Once Lin Tian approached, the white barrier's power would appear and push Lin Tian back.

"That's a problem …" Lin Tian creased his brows and thought for a while, but in the end, he still decided to go out and head deeper into the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.

With his current combat strength, even if he met a third level eighth stage great demon, he would not be afraid in the slightest.

Moreover, he also had a powerful trump card, which was the Ice Silkworm. The Ice Silkworm could even swallow a Rank Four Great Flood Dragon, so even if he encountered a Rank Four demon beast, Lin Tian did not need to worry at all.

In the next moment, on top of the white barrier, waves of terrifying power immediately rebounded and wanted to bounce back Lin Tian's spear, but Lin Tian did not move at all. At the same time, the Divine Punisher Shuttle in his Divine Mansion also crazily pierced towards the white barrier like rain.

As a result, the area above the white barrier began to ripple.

Lin Tian used a bit of force on the spear in his hand. With three "peng peng" sounds, the white barrier immediately collapsed.

In the next moment, Lin Tian's figure also disappeared from the barrier …
