Chapter 66 Breakthroughs in Multiple Realms (Please read on, please vote!)
The atmosphere turned cold again.
Gu Zhengshun said in a muffled voice, "There's no need to mention the underground palace anymore. Now that there are only four of us left in the Three Mountains of Xuangu, we might as well go back and send some more people over."
“No.” Liu Jinxian toyed with the bee gu in her hand and said in a low voice, “The five-year patrol period cannot be neglected for even a day.”
That's what she said, but anyone with eyes could see that she stayed behind to fully refine the bee gu, since she had already taken down the second-tier poisonous bee king with her trump card.
The sunk costs are too high; further refinement with the Corrosive Poison Bees of Xuan Gu Mountain is necessary for any chance of success, so she cannot leave.
Upon hearing this, Situ Hong nodded in agreement.
"I agree."
Not only can he utilize the Mystic Essence Flower, but he can also obtain the benefit of raising ghosts for free from the Bone Wood Forest, which is much more profitable than returning to the sect. Staying for five years will be pure profit.
Only Gu Zhengshun came here with the goal of finding the underground palace and a great opportunity, but all his efforts came to naught. He was disheartened and eager to go back.
Coupled with the unsafe environment and the anxiety of offending three people at the same time, Gu Zhengshun was terrified!
He first betrayed Wang Yu, and when he cooperated with Situ Hong, he was unwilling to deal with Liu Jinxian, thus offending all three parties.
Nobody liked him.
Wang Yu then spoke up, "I also agree with Senior Sister Liu's plan."
His earliest purpose in coming to Xuangu Mountain was to avoid disaster.
Now that they've made a fortune, they need time to digest it and naturally don't want to go back too soon. The resources they have are safe to keep and won't disappear until their cultivation level rises to the next level.
Once we get back, we can start planning the resources for foundation building.
While we're at it, we should also look into the secret demonic techniques that can compensate for innate talent; that's the most important thing.
With a score of three to one, the decision was made to continue guarding Xuan Gu Mountain.
Next.
Gu Zhengshun retreated into the formation, with no intention of coming out again, while Liu Jinxian began to run around looking for natural caves and searching for traces of the swarm of putrefied bees.
Situ Hong secluded himself in the Bonewood Forest, peacefully raising his ghostly servants.
For a moment, things calmed down.
No one mentioned expelling the Foundation Establishment Bone Beast. Wang Yu was happy about it, and he also needed time.
Thus, Xuan Gu Mountain became completely peaceful.
…………
…………
In the blink of an eye, another year has passed.
It was late May of the fifth year of Wang Yu's outer sect career, and also two and a half years since he came to Xuan Gu Mountain.
By now, he has turned twenty-two.
During this period, he had already consumed the third top-grade Cold Blood Pill and refined nearly two-thirds of it, bringing his spiritual power cultivation to its limit.
A total of 999 strands of spiritual energy, each of which is equivalent to ten strands of spiritual energy.
"The breakthrough is today!"
Actively circulate the cultivation technique, allowing spiritual energy to flow through the meridians and reach all parts of the body. Even external objects like the left arm are incorporated into the circulation path of the technique.
The corpse's arm was cold and damp, and carried an aura of death.
It was controlled in his left arm by the Yin Blood Pill that he was constantly refining, maintaining a delicate balance.
As his spiritual energy circulated faster, Wang Yu's body trembled.
The violent external spiritual energy obediently merged into the dantian, and the thousandth strand of spiritual energy was finally cultivated.
His aura surged instantly. The benefits of breaking through his realm brought about a certain increase in his body, meridians, divine sense, and many other human supernatural abilities.
"—Sixth level of Qi Refining!"
He exhaled a breath of hot air and continued to circulate his energy to stabilize his state.
Ten days later.
Inside the secret chamber of the temporary cave dwelling, which had been completely sealed off by Wang Yu using the [Blood Mist Concealing Spirit Array], there was a stone pool in the center of the chamber.
The pool is half-filled with mountain spring water, which carries a serene and spiritual quality.
Wang Yu took off his clothes and trousers, and soaked naked in the spring water. Immediately afterwards, three storage bags floated on the surface of the pool, their mouths wide open.
Countless Xuanjing flowers poured out, and Wang Yu used the "washing and refining" method from alchemy to completely extract the value from these Xuanjing flowers.
The peach-pink essence dripped into the pool water.
This action, which should have resulted in dilution, instead resulted in the addition of more essence than water, far exceeding the concentration of a single Mystic Flower.
Furthermore, this method of absorption can alleviate the problem of poor refining of some waste spiritual roots. Even if they are expelled from the body, they can remain in the Xuanjing Flower pool for a long time.
If you can achieve secondary absorption, even if you only use one or two tenths of it, it's much more cost-effective than simply swallowing it whole!
He has accumulated too many flowers; he can't possibly use them all.
Strictly speaking, this was the first time Wang Yu had achieved a breakthrough without using the placement bar. Although it still relied on external objects, it was still progress, wasn't it?
As the perfected Cold Blood Technique was activated.
As a large amount of medicinal power was absorbed into his body, it continuously refined and cleansed Wang Yu's spiritual cultivation. His skill in cultivation was high, and he could absorb a lot in one breath while controlling it exquisitely.
Unfortunately, his spiritual root was too weak, making the refining process slow and resulting in significant waste.
After a full cycle, less than half of the spiritual energy was actually used, but the resources overflowed to an explosive degree, forcibly purifying and fusing Wang Yu's thousand strands of spiritual energy.
From ten to one, from a thousand to a hundred, the Way unites us!
The misty spiritual energy became increasingly dense, each strand of it blocking out all other spiritual energy. Its quality was superior, more durable, and its cleansing effect on the physical body and consciousness was even more outstanding.
Gradually, as time passed, Wang Yu became completely immersed in cultivation. When he was hungry, he would swallow a top-grade fasting pill, and when he was thirsty, he would drink a sip of bathwater.
Its power reached new heights, until it reached a certain limit.
"Pop—"
With a faint sound of a bottleneck being broken, Wang Yu's body erupted with rich spiritual power, and at this moment he had successfully completed the second round of spiritual refinement.
His cultivation level improved naturally.
"This is what it feels like to be at the seventh level of Qi Refining... I entered the Dao at the age of sixteen and it took me six years to reach the late stage of Qi Refining. The path to immortality is indeed fraught with difficulty."
The blue-black cold blood spiritual power within his body was reduced to only one hundred strands, yet it was stronger than ever before, allowing him to unleash superior spells without ever running out of steam.
This solved a major shortcoming of his insufficient spiritual power.
He mentally calculated the time; it had been about three months since he entered the Flower Pool for seclusion, and he directly broke through to the seventh level of Qi Refining.
The essence of the Mysterious Flower in this pool has not yet been used up.
Wang Yu continued his seclusion, further purifying his spiritual energy into a semi-liquid true essence. This was the true mystery of the Xuanjing Flower, and it was not to be missed.
As for the next stage of cultivation, it will still be about accumulating spiritual power.
Accumulating from one hundred shares to three hundred shares allows one to break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining, which is equivalent to about 20,000 strands of spiritual power. It would take him five thousand days, nearly thirteen years, to achieve this by simply placing the stock in the bar!
This is what happens when you have a useless spiritual root; even when you're using cheat codes, it's frustrating.
But it's about the same as having three spiritual roots. At least you'll have a chance to try foundation building before you turn a hundred. Those with normal four or five spiritual roots can forget about it.
He possesses abundant resources and may have the opportunity to attempt Foundation Establishment before the age of fifty, making him only slightly inferior to those with dual spiritual roots in some respects.
As for breaking through to the ninth level of Qi Refining, one only needs to accumulate seven hundred strands of spiritual energy, and then accumulate one thousand strands to be considered to have reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.
You can try to break through!
