Chapter 69: Tenth Level of Qi Refining
This made sense. Su Qingwu took out the stone bottle and examined it carefully.
Judging from the appearance alone, there is no difference compared to the past.
The whole body is gray, without a trace of luster, and the characteristic of the treasure's restrained nature is perfectly reflected in the stone bottle.
After looking at it for a while, she took it back into her consciousness and continued to pull out the spiritual plants.
Although the feedback from his cultivation was not stable, it relied on the accumulation of quantity. When he harvested the 295th plant, the spiritual energy around him began to fluctuate violently again.
Su Qingwu returned to the bamboo house, closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and quickly entered a state of meditation.
In Dantian, the new spiritual power accumulated more and more, and the ninth cyclone was slowly forming.
This lasted for about sixty breaths, and the cyclone was completely condensed. At this moment, his cultivation broke through to the ninth level of Qi Refining!
After continuing to meditate for a while and consolidating his state of mind, Su Qingwu stood up from the cushion, went back to the outside of the bamboo house, walked to the spiritual field, and then pulled out the spiritual plants.
This time, she found that the cultivation level of each plant was generally lower than before.
Not until all the spiritual plants watered by the mysterious stone bottle were harvested did his cultivation finally show signs of another breakthrough.
He returned to the bamboo house and, with the help of Su Wen, used a thousand spirit stones to set up a small spirit gathering array. Then, with the help of the already rich spiritual energy in the space, he meditated for half a day. At the moment when many spirit stones turned into powder, the tenth cyclone was completely condensed in his dantian.
From this moment on, Su Qingwu's cultivation level broke through to the tenth level of Qi Refining, also known as the Perfect Qi Refining!
In the future, when the accumulation is enough, the ten cyclones will be further compressed and refined, condensed into true essence, and then you can enter the foundation-building realm.
In just one day, his cultivation level improved continuously, and Su Qingwu was filled with joy.
Now that her spiritual consciousness has been fully released, it can cover an area of about fifty meters in radius. If calculated in terms of spiritual fields, that is more than a hundred acres. Compared with the initial stage of Qi refining, when it could only cover an area of two or three meters, less than half an acre, it can be said that there is a world of difference.
On the side, Su Wen congratulated with a smile and then mentioned something.
"Qingwu, there is one thing you need to pay attention to. A breakthrough to a great realm must be made in the outside world. If you stay in the space all the time, you will not be able to build a foundation."
"Why is that?"
"It's a restriction of the laws of nature. When the time comes, you will feel it."
After receiving this answer, Su Qingwu suppressed his joy at the great improvement in his cultivation level, and thought for a moment, pondering:
"When I break through the foundation building stage in the future, it will surely cause a lot of trouble. I have been hiding my cultivation level from the outside world now. If I advance in the bluestone courtyard in the future, my true realm will be revealed by then."
After saying this, Su Wen nodded and said:
"That's true. When you break through a great realm, a cyclone of spiritual energy will appear around you, and the pressure will also dissipate. It is impossible to hide it. If you don't want to expose your true cultivation level, you must leave the sect to break through."
"This is the only way to do it. Otherwise, if my cultivation level suddenly increases, it will be like telling everyone that I have a big secret."
"Qingwu, I suggest you report to Ming'an Palace and tell them that you want to go out for training for a while, and come back after you have advanced to a higher level and established your foundation."
"Well, this is a good suggestion. After all, the Jade Purity Mirror can be carried with us. As for the spiritual field of less than one mu in the yard, it is not very important compared to the thousand mu in the space."
At this point, Su Qingwu thought of something else and frowned slightly.
"I don't know what the current situation of the Lord of the Cold Ghost Fire is. For me, this person is the most dangerous person when I go out to train."
Su Wen immediately said, "You can first inquire about the relevant information and see if there are any new disciples missing in the sect in recent days. The existing spiritual plants in the space will take at least a year to mature, so they don't have to leave the sect now."
After Su Qingwu heard this, he immediately started to work on this matter.
For the next seven days, she went to the dining hall every day and slowly heard some news.
So far, a total of forty people have been confirmed missing by the sect’s disciples, and all of these incidents happened half a year ago.
In the past six months, no relevant news has been released and everything has returned to normal.
The area where Luo Yunqian was originally located has now been renamed Dongxing Plain.
The sect sent many disciples there to open up spiritual fields and further expand its sphere of influence.
In addition, there has been no news of incidents similar to Luo Yunjian from other forces in Dongxuan Continent. The mastermind behind this incident may have left the continent for some reason, or was secretly found and killed by the elders of the sect.
No matter which situation it is, it is beneficial to Su Qingwu.
When she heard the news, she felt relieved.
Once the threat from the enemy disappears, you can consider leaving the sect to train.
On this day, Su Qingwu adjusted his cultivation level to the fourth level of Qi Refining and came to the Ming'an Palace on Heyun Peak.
After greeting the three deacons, she immediately stated her purpose.
Upon learning that she was planning to go out and gain experience, the three of them frowned.
Du Xinzhi gave a kind reminder.
"The outside world is not like the sect, and all kinds of fighting are very fierce. Although Junior Brother Su's strength has increased, it is still very dangerous for him to go out and train alone."
Su Qingwu had already thought of what to say to this, so she just replied respectfully:
"I have carefully considered what Master Uncle said, but I have a hunch that now is the best time to go out and gain experience. So even though I know there are dangers outside, I still want to give it a try, and I have made the corresponding preparations."
Hearing this, Du Xinzhi sighed softly.
"Since you have made up your mind, I will not hinder you any longer. The sect will arrange for the remaining disciples to take care of the spiritual plants in your nephew's courtyard as a task."
"Thank you, Uncle Master."
After Su Qingwu received his permission, he bowed to the three deacons again and then left the hall.
After she left, there was a burst of discussion in the hall.
Steward Yang shook his head repeatedly, "Fourth level of Qi Refining. It's hard to come back safely if you go out with this level of cultivation."
Du Xinzhi turned her head and glanced at him, then said slowly, "Don't be too pessimistic. Don't forget that there have been precedents in the sect."
At the side, Steward Zhang asked hesitantly, "Senior Sister Du is referring to Elder Gu?"
"Yes, he went out to practice when he was at the fourth level of Qi Refining. After more than a hundred years, he returned to the sect with a greatly improved level of cultivation."
"But... this elder ultimately failed to ascend, and passed away with regrets."
“Looking at the world as a whole, there are so many cultivators, but only a few can ascend. Junior Brother Zhang, what you said is really off topic. I am looking at this matter from the perspective of a fourth-level cultivator going out to practice.
To put it another way, we, the outer sect stewards, have no right to interfere with the freedom of the sect disciples except for the prescribed tasks. What will happen to Junior Sister Su in the future depends on her own luck. "
......
Su Qingwu was unaware of the three deacons' discussion, as she had already returned to the bluestone courtyard.
She put away the ground armor array and looked at the water vats placed in the four corners of the yard. She made hand gestures and performed the art of protecting objects, capturing as many of them as possible in front of her and bringing them into the Jade Purity Mirror space.
There are sixteen carps raised inside. If they are left outside with no one to feed them, I'm afraid when I return to the clan, I'll only see a pile of fish bones.
As for the seven-legged insect that was originally raised in the yard, Su Qingwu also took it and put it into the space.
After making all preparations, she quietly closed the gate of the courtyard, and left the clan, embarking on an unknown road of experience...
