Chapter 180 - Half a Month, Gengjin Qi
Chapter 180: Half a Month, Gengjin Qi
Ever since Su Yi made a huge promise to City Lord Ji, he had agreed to explore the Demon Subduing Mountain range with the team.
To be honest, he did not want to get involved in this mess, but the city lord had given him too much.
Moreover, according to the city lord, the Demon Subduing Mountain might give birth to a new secret realm. The fortune inside was so deep that he was tempted and wanted to try it.
Now that he thought about it, the city lord was truly terrifying. He had actually managed to stir the desire in his heart without him noticing. Then, he had unknowingly caused people to have thoughts about that place.
However, the team that the city lord wanted to form would take about half a month to gather. This made him secretly exclaim in his heart, ‘what kind of efficiency is this? Why does it take so long to gather a team?’
In reality, Ji Tongtian did not tell him that this time around, all the teams were sent by the major forces. Of course, it would take time to gather all the teams.
However, Su Yi did not know this. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged in the cultivation room, slowly breathing in and out.
A few days ago, he had also gone to look for Nie Ling. However, Nie Longxiang told him that Nie Ling had gone to another place to train and would not be able to return for a short period of time.
Having nothing to do, he chose to enter closed-door cultivation to increase his strength. In the middle of the Central Plains City, he found a place to settle down in the cultivation room, and in the blink of an eye, fifteen days had passed.
Sitting cross-legged, he suddenly opened his eyes, only to see a stream of light flickering in his eyes. He slowly exhaled.
Along with the sound of notifications, he had already refined a celestial-grade azure origin pill.
[Notification: You have consumed an azure origin pill (celestial-grade). Your cultivation has increased by 5,000]
This was already the sixth azure origin pill he had consumed. As long as he consumed another three celestial-grade azure origin pill, he would be able to raise his spiritual root to the middle grade.
As he sensed the slight change in his spiritual root, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
He opened his attribute panel and took a look. After half a month of cultivation, his cultivation had also increased by a level. However, most of the increase was due to the medicinal pills.
[Name: Su Yi]
[Realm: Middle stage of foundation establishment stage, level four (18,060/40,000)]
If he cultivated for half a month, he would definitely be able to break through to the middle stage of foundation establishment stage, level five.
Closing his attribute panel, he looked at his own immortal destiny seal space. A dagger that was emitting a faint light was lying quietly in one of the spaces.
Ever since Little Xie possessed the dagger, he had rarely used it to fight. Even when he was crossing the Demon Subduing Mountain range, he had torn demon beasts with his bare hands.
This was also the reason why he was covered in blood at that time.
Following that, he took out the dDragon Blood Spirit-breaking Blade from the seal space. The Dao rhythm on it was circulating. Little Xie had been attached to it for several days, but she had not come out to talk to him.
If he had not been able to sense Little Xie’s faint aura, he would have wondered what had happened to Little Xie.
Now, she seemed to be in a deep sleep.
He sighed helplessly. He did not know much about the sword spirit. He just hoped that Little Xie would be alright.
Then, he took out another pill. This pill was naturally not an azure origin pill. It had just been refined and was still being consumed at intervals.
The pill in his hand was a foundation establishment pill. Its surface had no luster and was incomparably rough. At a glance, it was obvious that it was a low-grade pill.
He looked at the foundation establishment pill in his hand and did not immediately consume it.
Instead, he took out the supreme treasure from his own seal space, the Starry Sea Bottle. He had the Starry Sea Bottle, so how could he consume a low-grade pill?
He placed the low-grade foundation establishment pill into the Starry Sea Bottle. Immediately, the Starry Sea Bottle’s starlight flickered.
Not long after, with a reminder, the low-grade foundation establishment pill’s refinement was completed. At the same time, the Starry Sea Bottle’s energy lost another three points.
Then, he poured the medicinal pill into his hand. The medicinal pill was as white and flawless as warm jade. Faint charm flowed on it.
Without any hesitation, he swallowed the foundation establishment pill. Up until now, he had consumed a total of four celestial-grade foundation establishment pills. Including this one, he had consumed a total of five.
The pill melted as soon as it entered his throat. Waves of surging energy continuously washed over his body and washed over his meridians.
At the same time, faint golden patterns appeared on his skin.
[Hint: You have consumed a celestial-grade foundation establishment pill. Your chance of breaking through has increased by 100%]
[Hint: You have consumed a celestial-grade foundation establishment pill. You have condensed a trace of innate Gengjin qi. The damage received has been reduced by 2%]
With the refinement of the fifth foundation establishment pill, his chances of breaking through to the next realm had reached 500%]
The effect of the celestial-grade pill allowed him to condense five traces of innate Gengjin qi. The total damage reduction effect had reached 10%.
Feeling that his skin seemed to have become more firm, he moved his body and made cracking sounds. After refining the two medicinal pills, he felt that his whole body had become much more refreshed.
Just when he was about to continue cultivating, Little Xie actually came out at this time, and he saw a cloud of white smoke coming out from his side.
Little Xie’s figure appeared in Su Yi’s eyes. He did not know whether it was an illusion or something else, but in his eyes, Little Xie seemed to have grown a little bigger.
“Wah wah! That was such a great sleep!”
A tender voice came out from her small lips. Her pair of misty eyes seemed to have woken up.
She floated in the air and stretched her lazy waist. Then, she opened her eyes wide and saw Su Yi looking at her with black lines all over his face.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Little Xie raised her beautiful eyebrows slightly and said indifferently.
He looked at Little Xie and a trace of concern flashed across his eyes. However, he quickly wiped it away and said indifferently, “do you sword spirits sleep for such a long time?”
He could not remember how long it had been since he had slept. A month? Or two months?
In any case, for cultivators, meditation allowed them to rest.
When Little Xie heard this, she did not reply. She also felt that it was very strange. She clearly did not want to sleep, but when she returned to the dagger, she immediately fell into a deep sleep.
Although she felt that it was very strange, she still replied.
“I don’t know, maybe.”
When he heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he did not continue speaking.
At this time, there was a knock on the door from outside the cultivation room, and a voice sounded.
“Young Master Su, the city lord has summoned you.”
Hearing this, Su Yi realized that the team should be assembled, so he was called over.
So he packed his things and headed to the rendezvous point set by Ji Tongtian.
