On the rugged road, two figures were moving quickly forward.
Qin Luo's steps were steady and powerful. At this moment, he was focused on looking ahead, his brows furrowed as he gazed at the distant Lingwu Valley.
Behind him, Yiting's face was slightly pale. She gritted her teeth and tried her best to keep up.
"well!"
Qin Luo was starting to regret bringing her along; a whole day had passed, and they hadn't even covered half the distance.
The reason was that he forgot that Yi Ting was still a Spiritual Awareness Realm cultivator who could not use spiritual energy, and the spiritual flames on her body could only be used in simple alchemy and could not be used to cover her body.
As a result, she would stop and rest for a while after walking a certain distance, which greatly reduced their travel efficiency.
"Master, I need to rest for a while, I really can't run anymore."
Yi Ting rested her hands on her knees, panting heavily.
Qin Luo paused upon hearing Yi Ting's words, then slowly turned around. Looking at Yi Ting's pale face and exhausted appearance, he sighed inwardly, then walked to her side and knelt down.
"Come on up."
Yi Ting was slightly taken aback, looking at Qin Luo's broad back, a deep sense of emotion welled up in her heart.
"As expected, my master can't stand seeing me so overworked."
Yi Ting murmured to herself, a smile unconsciously creeping onto her lips.
Then she reached out and gently placed her hand on Qin Luo's shoulder, leaning forward slightly to rest her body against his back. Her cheek pressed against his back, listening to his steady heartbeat, she felt a deep sense of security.
Qin Luo felt a heavy weight pressing down on his back, and a strange feeling arose in his heart. He quickly recited the supreme incantation several times to calm down.
Then, he lifted Yiting steadily onto his back with both hands. He stood up, feeling the weight on his back, and sighed inwardly.
The next moment, spiritual energy enveloped the two of them, and then they sped away into the distance.
The wind whistled past Yi Ting's ears, making her long hair fly wildly. She hugged Qin Luo's neck tightly, carefully breathing in his scent.
After all, this is a very rare opportunity.
Qin Luo paid no attention to her little actions. A continuous stream of spiritual energy surged forth, causing him to transform into a streak of purple light and fly into the distance.
Generally speaking, only cultivators who have broken through to the eighth stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm can fly for a short period of time. However, Qin Luo's Myriad Manifestations Return to One Technique breaks the original rules of cultivation.
Thanks to this technique, he was able to freely use spiritual energy to perform various exquisite operations when he was at the fourth stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm.
For most cultivators at the eighth or ninth level of the Spirit Gathering Realm, using spiritual energy to fly is undoubtedly an extremely extravagant act. It's important to understand that flying consumes a vast amount of spiritual energy.
Therefore, they only use their spiritual energy to fly in critical situations such as escaping or being pursued.
But this was not within Qin Luo's consideration. This spiritual energy flight was nothing compared to the spiritual energy in his Qi Sea, which was the only thing that could make him feel gratified.
Just then, Qin Luo, who was flying rapidly through the air, suddenly stopped, and a voice rang in his mind.
[Xia Zihan has reached the fifth stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm. Based on her current affection level for the host: 100 (privately engaged); therefore, the return reward will be randomly distributed between 101 and 505 times the original value.]
[Cultivation points are doubled, with a multiplier of 500, granting 500 times the cultivation points of the fifth stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm]
Just as Yi Ting was feeling puzzled, a very vigorous purple spiritual energy suddenly emerged from Qin Luo's body.
The spiritual energy spread rapidly like a surging tide, forming a dazzling purple starry sky around them.
Then, a suction force emerged from Qin Luo's dantian, and the purple star continuously poured into his dantian.
As spiritual energy continued to flow in, a crisp sound suddenly rang out from Qin Luo's body after an incense stick's time. His aura also increased significantly, and at this moment he broke through to the fifth stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm!
At the fifth stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm, his Qi Sea has doubled in size once again!
And his Qi Sea has also undergone tremendous changes at this moment.
When Qin Luo's Qi Sea doubled again, it could no longer be called a sea; instead, it transformed into a vast and mysterious universe. In this grand cosmic space, the spiritual energy of the past had now transformed into countless dazzling stars.
Within the vast expanse of Qi Sea, scattered are purple stars. These purple stars are distributed in every corner of the Qi Sea universe, each containing profound spiritual energy. Their light intertwines to form a faint purple nebula.
The few emerald green stars, however, resembled emeralds scattered throughout the Qi Sea universe. Although their light was not as dazzling as that of the purple stars, they emitted a faint glow.
"This...this doesn't mean I'll end up filling up this Qi Sea, does it?"
Qin Luo looked at the new Qi Sea with a slight tremor in his heart. All the spiritual energy from before had been transformed into stars that adorned it, and each star emitted an incomparably vast spiritual energy.
After Qin Luo broke through, the Unity of All Things Technique within his body circulated even more rapidly, and in no time, it devoured all the purple spiritual energy around him into his Qi Sea, which resulted in the appearance of more stars in his Qi Sea.
Yiting, standing behind him, didn't dare to make a sound and disturb his absorption. She could only carefully adjust her posture to avoid adding any burden to him.
She gazed at the purple aura surrounding them and instinctively felt a sense of revulsion. She didn't know why she felt this way about the aura, but she just felt disgusted.
I was secretly thinking to myself that it wasn't as pretty as my emerald green aura.
After all the surrounding spiritual energy had been absorbed, Qin Luo slowly opened his eyes, a trace of worry appearing in them.
Thinking of the boundless Qi Sea universe, he felt a sense of powerlessness.
Before, land reclamation was still a hope for him, but now he has to fill this boundless universe. How can he possibly do that?
Qin Luo sighed slightly; now he could only take it one step at a time.
Upon hearing this sigh, Yiting, who was lying on his back, released her arms from his neck and gently placed them on his temples, kneading them softly.
She didn't know why her master sighed; she only knew that this was the only thing she could do for him now.
With Yi Ting's comforting words, Qin Luo's mood improved again. He gently pressed Yi Ting's hand down and then placed it back on his neck.
"Hold on tight, we need to keep going."
"Mmm~" Yi Ting gently wrapped her arms around his neck and responded softly.
Upon hearing this, Qin Mo unleashed a surge of purple spiritual energy that enveloped the two of them, and then they quickly flew away into the distance.
