Chapter 218 Another Breakthrough, Changes at the Main Peak

Inside the cultivation room on the main peak of Kunmen.

As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged rapidly, a massive vortex of airflow was formed. The boy within it emitted a blue-red light, and a martial spirit appeared behind him, its golden patterns radiating an extremely dazzling light.

After an unknown amount of time, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth flowing into the boy's body began to slow down.

There seemed to be a momentary pause in the space. The spiritual energy around the boy was all refined by the Martial Spirit. Eight points of light shone on the Martial Core. It was as if the true energy could be easily mobilized with a slight circulation. It contained extremely powerful true energy.

The two martial pills, one green and one red, no longer flowed their true energy as quickly as before; instead, they had a silky smooth feel. The three water droplets of true energy floating within them contained violent energy.

After nearly a week of cultivation, Qin Xin gained many benefits in this cultivation room. The soul fragments of the Lava Giant Scorpion King had been completely refined by the Spirit Devouring Stone, Qin Xin's Martial Spirit had advanced to the sixth star, and with the help of the advancement of the Martial Spirit, he also directly condensed the eighth True Aperture and directly stepped into the eighth level of the Aperture Opening Realm.

In addition, some changes were also found in Qin Xin's Firewood Martial Pill. Due to the advancement of the Martial Spirit, the true energy within the Martial Pill was undergoing a qualitative change, and even a few drops of true liquid were condensed.

It should be noted that only martial artists at the Qi Sea Realm can achieve the transformation of True Qi into Liquid, but Qin Xin has already accomplished it, which clearly shows the benefits he has gained from this cultivation.

Qin Xin had intended to chat with Dan Qing for a bit, but he found that Dan Qing had become much more silent than before since acquiring the Fire God Crystal. Even when they encountered a crisis in the Kunmen underground space, Dan Qing did not take action, as if he had some kind of apprehension.

He stretched, and for a moment, the sound of bones colliding echoed in the training room. Qin Xin's Desolate God Battle Body had now reached the second level, and his physical strength was comparable to that of a level three demon beast.

After collecting the Heavenly Phoenix Futon, he turned and walked out of the cultivation room.

Qin Xin had already adapted to the concentration of spiritual energy in the cultivation room, so even if he continued to cultivate, he wouldn't be able to cultivate at the same speed as before. It would be better for him to rest and recuperate. After all, he only had some dry rations for a week, and Qin Xin, who still had a strong appetite, had his stomach rumbling from time to time.

Stepping out of the cultivation room, the door immediately closed, and Qin Xin's identity crystal slowly floated in mid-air. Qin Xin reached out and grasped it, looking at the reduced spiritual energy of one hundred, a smile appearing on his lips.

Although the spiritual energy he expended made him feel a little pained, the benefits he gained far outweighed any amount of spiritual energy he could have obtained.

Looking at the abandoned buildings on the summit of the main peak, Qin Xin felt a sense of loneliness. As he passed the stone tablet for collecting Fire God Crystals, a feeling of strange fire also rose in his heart.

The originally broken stone tablet was restored to its original state, covered with the same inscriptions as those on the stone pillars around the spiritual vein, and emitted a blood-red light, which could be felt as hot as one could get close.

Without conducting a detailed study, Qin Xin slowly walked out of the main peak.

~~~~~~

"Those who want to join the main peak, come here to register. All you need is one psionic energy, and I can take you to see the peak master."

"Don't miss this opportunity!"

“A miraculous medicine, a top-quality miraculous medicine…”

"Brother, I have some Yellow-rank martial arts techniques here, would you like to take a look?"

On the stone steps leading down the mountain, Qin Xin heard the commotion and was somewhat puzzled.

In his memory, the main peak of the Kun Sect was rarely visited by other disciples, but today it was unusually lively. What puzzled him even more was that he had seen quite a few cave dwellings along the way.

Qin Xin was dressed very plainly, and no one noticed him when he came down from the mountain.

Qin Xin stopped in his tracks only after spotting a somewhat familiar figure.

"One psionic power! You only need one psionic power to enter the main peak!"

A somewhat quirky little girl was setting up a street stall.

"What is Ya Ru up to?"

Looking at Ya Ru's shrewd smile, Qin Xin murmured to himself.

"Look, this is Qin Xin, my brother. For just one spirit energy, I'll have my brother take you to the summit of the main peak for a tour, how about that?"

Ya Ru pointed at Qin Xin with her two little fingers and said.

"So young! He's obviously a con artist! Do you think we're stupid?!"

"If he were Qin Xin, I would still be the Peak Master of the North Peak!"

Doubts arose because Qin Xin looked like an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy, so there was no credibility in calling him the master of the main peak.

"Hmph! Believe it or not! You'll never have another chance if you miss this one!"

Seeing that no one believed her, Ya Ru said somewhat angrily, then immediately packed up her stall and walked towards Qin Xin.

"You silly girl, how many people have you fooled?"

Looking at Ya Ru in this state, Qin Xin smiled softly and said.

"Hmph! Not a single one, these idiots!" Ya Ru cursed resentfully.

"What's going on at the main peak? Why are there so many more people here?" Qin Xin asked, somewhat puzzled, after glancing at the Kunmen disciples around him.

"Let's talk as we walk. Sister Qingxi and Sister Xue are waiting for you."

Without giving a direct answer, Ya Ru pulled Qin Xin directly toward his cave dwelling.

Some Kunmen disciples who had settled on the main peak looked on with puzzlement as they saw the direction the two were heading.

On the way, through Ya Ru and Qin Xin, they learned that the peak master of Yifeng could open the gate to accept disciples, and only those disciples who were successfully selected could enter the summit.

However, this was irrelevant to Qin Xin. His main purpose in coming to the main peak of Kunmen was to find peace and quiet. If the mountain gate were opened, there would inevitably be a lot of troubles, so he simply put these problems out of his mind.

After arriving at the cave at the foot of the mountain, Qin Xin led Ya Ru inside.

At this moment, Shui Qingxi, Qin Xue, and Mao Ruijin were already in the living room of the pavilion, seemingly chatting about something, laughing heartily from time to time.

With a frown, Qin Xin reluctantly entered the living room of the pavilion, pulled by Ya Ru.

"Oh ho ho, our Kunmen's main peak master is really busy with a lot of things. It's really hard to get a glimpse of you."

Shui Qingxi, dressed in a gown that perfectly accentuated her figure, was currently munching on a spiritual fruit when she saw Qin Xin enter and spoke. (Qian Qianren)

"Uh, I just finished my training."

Qin Xin shrugged, feeling somewhat uneasy in his cave.

"I imagine this first training session brought you quite a few benefits," Shui Qingxi said softly, stretching her shoulders.

"Yes, Sister Shui's back injury has healed, hasn't it?"

Seeing Shui Qingxi's actions, Qin Xin remembered something and asked.

"Um."

Upon hearing about the injury on his back, Shui Qingxi immediately pictured herself cleaning the man's wounds, and a sudden nervousness rose to her face.

"Alright, let's get down to business. Qin Xin, the four of us might be joining the main peak." Qin Xin cleared his throat and said calmly.

"Oh? That would be very welcome."

Facing a woman, Qin Xin was afraid of saying the wrong thing, so he spoke respectfully.

"Don't stand there like that. Are you worried we'll eat you?"

Seeing that Qin Xin seemed a little flustered, Qin Xin quickly comforted him.

"I'm not worried, but are you all planning to stay here with me?"

Qin Xin asked curiously, after all, living under the same roof with a woman would inevitably lead to many conflicts, and it would also make him easily distracted when cultivating pills.
