It was as if a stroke of genius had struck.
Xi Que and Bai Lu unconsciously began to circulate the "Gathering Spirit Technique." Although their bodies absorbed spiritual energy as rapidly as Ji Fengyao's, their strength was still increasing at an alarming rate.
Bai Lu, who had never had a rank before, was directly promoted to the mid-stage of the second level of the Spirit Gathering Realm, and then rushed to the third level of the Spirit Gathering Realm.
Meanwhile, the magpie broke through the fifth level of the Spirit Gathering Realm and successfully reached the sixth level!
In the past, in this situation, Xique and Linshuang should have been lying beside Ji Fengyao.
But Lin Shuang had a knot in her heart, and tonight she lay on the other side of Bai Lu.
After being absorbed by Ji Fengyao, Xique, and Bailu, the spiritual energy had been reduced by more than half by the time it reached Lin Shuang, but Lin Shuang still benefited greatly.
Lin Shuang had secretly cultivated to the mid-stage of the first level of the Spirit Gathering Realm using the spirit stones given to her by Shang Beiyu.
At this moment, thanks to the spiritual power attracted by Ji Fengyao, his cultivation successfully broke through the second level of the Spirit Gathering stage and was advancing towards the middle stage of the second level.
Moreover, the dispersed spiritual energy also benefited the hidden guards lurking around.
Hu Ji and the others thought it was because the mountain was exceptionally rich in spiritual energy.
While hiding in the grass, the guards quickly seized the time to cultivate, and their cultivation levels improved to varying degrees. Hu Ji even took the opportunity to break through the fourth level of the Spirit Gathering Realm!
Twelfth rank!
Mid-stage of the twelfth rank!
The twelfth stage of Great Perfection!
A large amount of spiritual energy gathered and began to condense within Ji Fengyao's body, indicating that she was already attempting to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
More spiritual energy from heaven and earth frantically converged around Ji Fengyao, stirring up the twilight in the mountains and forming a small tornado cloud above the Zen room courtyard. The originally dark night sky suddenly showed a faint glow, making the clear starry sky stained with a glassy color, which was extremely eerie.
Inside the main hall, Jin Yuan was undergoing the investiture ceremony.
Just as he took the abbot's staff, a rosy glow suddenly appeared in the night sky. The monks in the temple were immediately shocked and knelt down, shouting, "Auspicious omens descend from the heavens! The Buddha has manifested his power! The abbot is the chosen son of Buddha!"
Empress Dowager: "!"
The maids and servants around him looked at each other in bewilderment.
Wow, that's amazing!
Could it be that Jin Yuan is truly the chosen one of Buddhas, and that they have done something of immeasurable merit?
Jin Yuan: "???"
What happened? The celestial phenomena are caused by me? It doesn't seem like it.
On Ji Fengyao's side.
The guards and Lin Shuang were all alarmed by the scene in the courtyard.
"Your Highness..." a guard exclaimed in a low voice, about to rush into the courtyard.
Hu Ji had a sudden inspiration and quickly stopped him: "Don't go over there. The spiritual energy in the courtyard is abundant. That might be a great fortune for the princess."
He could stop the guards around him, but he couldn't stop Lin Shuang, who was beside Ji Fengyao.
Lin Shuang had already broken through to the second stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm, and her five senses and six perceptions had increased several times over, so she naturally heard Hu Ji's words.
She didn't know what she was thinking, she just felt that the princess couldn't become stronger, otherwise she might never have a chance to turn things around.
As if guided by some unseen force, Lin Shuang rushed to Ji Fengyao's side, shaking her body and anxiously calling out, "Your Highness, Your Highness, wake up!"
The whirlwind of spiritual energy above Ji Fengyao's body abruptly stopped and dissipated instantly.
The foundation that had already been half-built within her body collapsed like a dam breaking down, and immense spiritual power surged back and devoured her like a landslide and tsunami, raging and crashing within Ji Fengyao's body.
"puff!"
Ji Fengyao immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, then suddenly opened her eyes and glared hatefully at Lin Shuang.
Destroying someone's cultivation is like cutting off their path to recovery!
In the world of cultivators, this hatred is irreconcilable!
"Sister Lin Shuang, what are you doing?" Bai Lu was in a shallow meditative state. Seeing Lin Shuang pressing down on Ji Feng Yao's shoulder, she rushed up and pushed her away with a palm strike.
