Ten Earth Knot, seal!

Lu Ren's body rapidly began to shrink, his height returning to 2.3 meters, and his once bronze skin had turned back to a normal yellowish hue.

What surprised him most was that his shoulder and neck muscles became extremely high and broad, and his shoulder blades were several degrees thicker than before.

"This is..."

He could feel something was nurturing within his shoulder blades.

What is it?!

With a strange expression, Lu Ren felt the muscles on his back start to wriggle.

Swish!!

A pair of wings suddenly burst forth from his shoulder blades, causing Lu Ren to let out a stifled groan of pain and stagger a step forward.

The wings flapped twice, allowing him to steady his footing.

He looked around; the soft feathers on the flesh wings began to tremble and, in just a few seconds, transformed into extremely hard and metallic red feathers.

Clang!

Lu Ren flicked them with his fingers, producing a sound like metal clashing.

Rather than feathers, they were like sword feathers, incredibly sharp and tough.

Even using this pair of wings to attack could cause immense damage to an enemy.

He gently touched the edge of the feathers, and his fingertips were cut, leaving a bleeding mark.

Holy shit!!

This sharp!?

It's worth noting that his entire body was covered in dense red scales, especially his hands, with a toughness that was unimaginable.

This is definitely a major weapon!

But when did I turn into a birdman?!

No wonder he always felt something was wrong with his back, thinking that the shifted center of gravity was due to significant enhancements in physical strength.

Lu Ren pondered in his mind.

It might be due to the integration of Phoenix Falcon Fist and Phoenix Extreme Fist into the Ten Lands Great Accomplishment Golden Body Bodhisattva Path that triggered this change.

Now called the Ten Lands Great Accomplishment Golden Body Phoenix Bodhisattva Path, the True Phoenix Intent transformed into Phoenix Rebirth, and because of the Fourth Stage of Transformation, a pair of wings forcibly grew on his back.

This is truly...

A cow drilling with an electric drill, incredibly awesome.

After spending almost ten minutes to adapt to the wings on his back, Lu Ren looked upwards, bent his legs, and in one motion, shot up like a sky-reaching cannonball.

Even in a default state, his formidable physique granted Lu Ren immense power, causing the ground to form a large crater with his sudden acceleration breaking the sound barrier.

In nearly a hundred meters high in the air, Lu Ren slowly hovered, starting to flap his wings.

Swoosh swoosh!

Swoosh swoosh!

The flapping wings generated great floating power for Lu Ren.

However...

He was really too heavy, and with the change in body structure, his weight had further increased, reaching nearly a ton.

If not for the Red Dragon Inner Core providing energy, he might have been consumed alive by this transformation.

With a slight movement of his mind, his own magnetic field merged, triggering the surrounding magnetic field, coupled with the flapping wings, he finally hovered in mid-air.

It's a pity, these wings are somewhat superfluous; wanting to be extremely maneuverable in the air is something not achievable now.

Dispersing the gathered magnetic field, he turned around in mid-air and glided toward the exit.

As a tool for gliding, it can still be considered decent.

As he was about to reach the ground, the flapping wings slowed his fall, allowing him to land gently.

The wings trembled, the hard feathers softened, then withdrew back into the shoulder blades.

Lu Ren let out a breath, realizing these wings could serve as a surprise attack method, with feathers that were extremely tough and sharp.

At that moment, without hesitation, Lu Ren left the Dragon Realm.

"Ding, you have exited the Dragon Realm Secret Realm."

Hearing the system prompt, Lu Ren glanced down at his shorts, ensuring there were no holes, then swiftly flew upwards.

There are still ten attribute points; to be honest, they are just enough for Lu Ren to upgrade the Ten Lands Great Accomplishment Golden Body Phoenix Bodhisattva Path once to reach the Sixth Earth Realm, requiring six attribute points, and the remaining four attribute points might be left unused.

Although Basic Swordsmanship can still be upgraded, it requires exactly four skill points.

But seeing that the percentage progress of Outstanding Level Swordsmanship is almost complete, upgrading now seems a bit unwise.

It's better to keep them for emergencies.

On the ground, Chen Feng and the others were almost like ants on a hot pan, pacing back and forth.

Several times they wanted to come down.

When the relay detected Lu Ren emerging from the alternate space within the cave, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Feng let out a silly laugh.

"I just knew this big shot wouldn't encounter any major issues."

"I feel like I'm about to get a heart attack these past few days." Wang Yuan said, clutching his heart, his face full of fear.

It didn't take Lu Ren long to come up from underground with his enhanced physical response; it was less than half an hour before he emerged from the pit, his tall figure appearing in everyone's sight.

When they saw that Lu Ren was left in only a pair of shorts, simply carrying a High-Frequency Vibrating Sword, everyone let out a long breath.

Lu Ren saw this and couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Everyone, with this exploration mission unlocked, continuing to explore may require a lot of manpower and resources."

The enormous dragon bone within the Dragon Realm Secret Realm holds great research value, and such a small Dragon Realm Secret Realm is incredibly valuable as a refuge.

The rarest part is that it's not like the nearly collapsing Treasure Light Buddha Realm encountered in Baoguang Temple.

This is an intact small secret realm.

Due to the exceptionally good weather, a heavy helicopter arrived to pick everyone up, and as Lu Ren boarded, the helicopter's roar suddenly amplified.

The pilot couldn't help but glance at Lu Ren getting on the helicopter.

Lu Ren remained composed: "You all know, martial artists just have a stronger physique."

"..."

Once Lu Ren reported the experience to the Changbai Mountain base, personnel deployment commenced for exploration, and returning to Shu Capital took two days.

Lu Ren once again stood in front of the Martial Arts Dojo, just about to push the door open when he suddenly stopped and turned to look at the right.

There stood a tall man.

Wearing ancient armor, holding a heavy sword, he looked around in confusion.

What intrigued Lu Ren most was the man's exceptionally powerful blood qi, almost like blood energy comparable to a dragon.

Is this... the Blood Qi Martial Path from the Underworld?

Lu Ren turned to face him, just about to speak, but then closed his mouth.

"Ding, discovering the Underworld gradually merging with the real world, current merge level at 9.7%."

For the cosmos-world, this degree of overlap is an incredible figure.

It means things from the Underworld will start appearing in the reality world.

Will this place become a ghostly realm?!

Thinking of this, Lu Ren didn't hesitate any longer, turned to push the door open, and walked straight to the martial field where Li Qingling was practicing diligently.

Seeing she was okay, Lu Ren relaxed slightly.

"Qingling, pack up your things, we need to leave first."
