The wind howled softly outside the cave, brushing over the jagged cliffs like a song of the wild. Inside, the calm stillness was broken only by the rustle of robes and the soft clink of bottles.
Xiao Feng sat cross-legged once more, his silver eyes sharp and resolute.
> "Time to break through."
He retrieved a small bottle from his storage ring—a mid 4th tier Dou Shi Advancement Pill, a crystal blue pill with faint ripples of energy swirling within. Without hesitation, he consumed it.
Warmth spread through his veins instantly. His Dou Qi surged like a rising tide, coursing through his meridians and compressing further with each breath. The familiar pain of expansion and the burning sensation of growth followed, but he remained composed.
In less than an hour—
> Boom!
His aura flared and stabilized at a new height.
> 9-Star Dou Shi.
His control over Dou Qi felt more refined, more dense, and more alive.
Yet, this was only the beginning.
He took out a small black jade box, its surface etched with intricate runes. As he opened it, a golden pill pulsed with radiant wind-element light. The air itself seemed to swirl around it naturally, as though the world recognized its importance.
> "The Heavenly Wind Marrow Awakening Pill…"
> "25 million energy points. The most expensive thing I've ever bought."
But he didn't regret it. This wasn't just a power boost—it was evolution.
The Wind Spirit Body was a mythical constitution recorded only in ancient legends—one that only those who cultivated the Wind God's Scripture could awaken. It was a physical and spiritual transformation, permanently altering the body to become one with the wind itself.
He consumed the pill.
For a moment, nothing happened.
Then—the storm came.
Wind erupted within the cave, forming a cyclone that lifted Xiao Feng off the ground. His body glowed with golden-green light, veins pulsing with new life as his bones, muscles, and even his cells underwent a painful reconstruction.
Lightning crackled in the air. His heart pounded in rhythm with the gusts around him. The wind was no longer a force outside him—it became part of him.
He grit his teeth, sweat pouring from his body as waves of wind Dou Qi merged with his very essence. The transformation was brutal… but he endured.
After an unknown span of time, the light faded. The wind stilled.
And Xiao Feng slowly lowered back to the ground.
He opened his eyes—calmer, sharper, brighter.
> He had become the Wind.
He had awakened the Wind Spirit Body.
