Chapter 34 Breakthrough, 9 Spiritual Veins!
"In that case, I refuse." Ji Chen said without hesitation.
Su Wanyue was stunned when she heard this, but she didn't say much. After shrugged meaninglessly, she walked past Ji Chen and the others.
Soon, we returned to the disciples' residence.
After Ji Chen specifically instructed Lin Cai'er and Li Yang to practice hard, he entered his own yard.
"Buzz!"
Without wasting any time, Ji Chen immediately took out a large amount of spirit stones and began to practice.
Now, his cultivation has reached the peak of the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm. The speed at which his divine body absorbs spirit stones is astonishingly fast, and he can absorb nearly two hundred spirit stones every day.
Such a speed is almost close to that of a strong man at the Spiritual Transformation Realm.
Logically speaking, after absorbing so many spirit stones, my cultivation should be able to improve by leaps and bounds.
However, Ji Chen discovered that perhaps because of the special nature of his divine body, every breakthrough required a huge accumulation of spiritual energy.
Because it's not just about cultivation, a large part of the spirit stones he absorbed were converted into energy needed for the divine body.
……
inner door.
At this moment, Ji Yanran was sitting cross-legged in her own yard.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth that gathered around her had already reached a very dense level, as if she had entered some critical juncture.
"boom!"
I don’t know how much time has passed.
Finally, a muffled sound came from her body, as if some bottleneck was broken, and then Ji Yanran's aura began to pour out uncontrollably.
"A breakthrough?"
She let out a long breath, slowly opened her eyes, and a look of joy appeared on her face.
Now, her cultivation has finally broken through the shackles of the ninth level of the Nengmai Realm and successfully entered the first level of the Linghua Realm, becoming a Linghua Realm master!
People of this level are already able to fly in the air.
Moreover, among the nearly one thousand disciples in the entire inner sect, there are definitely only a handful of people who can reach this level of cultivation.
Today, Ji Yanran is almost able to compete with the younger generation of Yuhua Sect in terms of strength!
Ji Xueruo came, and after learning that Ji Yanran had made a breakthrough, her little face was full of excitement and she kept congratulating her.
"Sister Yanran, you are now a master of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, and have reached the requirements to practice the Taixuan Sutra. I remember all the formulas of the Taixuan Sutra. Do you want me to write a copy for you now?"
Hearing this, Ji Yanran was startled, then shook her head and said, "The Taixuan Sutra is a special secret method of our Ji family. Without my father's consent, how dare I practice it without permission?"
"Dad won't blame you. If he knew, he would immediately send someone to deliver the Taixuan Sutra to Yuhua Sect and give it to you."
Ji Xueruo said with a smile, "You are the jewel of our Ji family."
"yes……"
Hearing her words, Ji Yanran couldn't help but be a little stunned, "Whether it's me, you, or Wushuang, if we reach the level of Spiritual Transformation, Dad will definitely give us the Taixuan Sutra to practice, but if it's Ji Chen... will Dad do that?"
"This……"
The smile on Ji Xueruo's face gradually faded, and she became speechless for a moment.
"Over the years, Dad has never cared about Ji Chen. He hasn't even given Ji Chen a yellow-grade intermediate martial art. The Taixuan Sutra... is even more impossible." Ji Yanran smiled bitterly.
She suddenly remembered that not long ago, Ji Xiaotian had spent hundreds of thousands of spirit stones at an auction to buy a high-level Xuan-level martial art for Ji Wushuang.
Compared with the treatment Ji Chen received, there is a huge difference.
Who is his real son?
When she thought of this, Ji Yanran couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
"By the way, Sister Yanran, I just went to the outer sect to inquire, and it seems that Ji Chen will also participate in this year's outer sect competition. Should we go and take a look then?" Ji Xueruo suddenly spoke.
"He's going to participate too?"
Hearing this, Ji Yanran was stunned. "Based on his performance in the entrance examination, if he wants to enter the inner gate, he only needs to find the elder. Why bother to participate in the so-called competition?"
"I don't know what he's thinking."
Ji Xuerou was also a little confused. "And I heard that there are a lot more people participating in the competition this year than in previous years. With Ji Chen's strength... I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to get a place in the top 20."
"Let's go and take a look when the time comes. I wonder how his cultivation has been going during this period?" Ji Yanran said.
……
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
On the eve of the upcoming outer sect competition, Ji Chen finally made a successful breakthrough and entered the first level of cultivation in the Condensing Veins Realm.
Not only that, just like in his previous life, he successfully condensed nine spiritual veins in the spiritual sea.
And new problems also arise.
The more spiritual veins one has, the stronger his strength will naturally be. However, it also means that the amount of spiritual power Ji Chen needs to absorb for each subsequent advancement in his realm will be several times or even ten times that of an ordinary person!
"After the breakthrough in my cultivation, my mental strength has also been greatly improved. Now I should be able to refine third-grade pills by myself."
"The Qi Gathering Pills are supplied by the Yidan Pavilion, so I don't need to refine them myself. However, there are many kinds of third-grade pills suitable for cultivators in the Condensing Veins Realm. I can now refine them myself." He said to himself.
In his previous life, Ji Chen was able to research the Qinghuo Pill on his own, which shows that his talent in alchemy is naturally not low.
Moreover, in addition to the Qinghuo Pill, Ji Chen has also studied many other pills, including a third-grade pill called Fuling Pill.
As the name suggests, this pill can help people speed up the recovery of their spiritual power, and its effect is much better than similar pills on the market.
He was hesitating whether to provide the recipe of the Fuling Pill to Lin Qing. After all, if someone could help him refine it, it would save him a lot of time.
"Ji Chen, are you there? Someone is looking for you."
Just when Ji Chen had not made a decision, Lin Caier's voice suddenly came from outside the yard.
"I'm here, come in."
He was startled, then spoke.
Soon, the courtyard door was pushed open and Lin Cai'er walked in. Behind her was a fifty-year-old man, who was Master Lin Qing.
Ji Chen was surprised, and quickly stood up and greeted him, "Master Lin Qing, why are you here?"
"The outer sect competition of Yuhua Sect will begin tomorrow. I thought I'd come over to watch the fun and, by the way, give this item to you."
Lin Qing spoke with a smile, and then handed a storage bag to Ji Chen.
Ji Chen suddenly realized that this was the 20% profit share of Yidan Pavilion every month.
In addition, the storage bag also contains many Qi Gathering Pills.
"Thank you very much. I didn't expect that I would have to trouble Master Lin Qing to make the trip in person." Ji Chen clasped his fists.
"It doesn't matter. It's on the way anyway."
He waved his hand, but his eyes were fixed on Ji Chen, with a strange look in his eyes, "It's been a month since I last saw you, and your improvement is beyond my expectation."
If I remember correctly, when they first met, although Lin Qing didn't know Ji Chen's identity and origin, he could feel that the aura of the other party was at most the third or fourth level of the Qi Refining Realm.
Later, in the entrance examination of Yuhua Sect, Ji Chen reached the seventh level of Qi Refining Realm, which also surprised Lin Qing greatly.
At that time, many people speculated that the reason why Ji Chen suddenly became stronger was because of their help.
But only Lin Qing knew clearly that this was not the case.
Now, after a month, when they met again, Ji Chen had actually reached the first level of Condensing Veins Realm!
Such a fast speed was so fast that even with Lin Qing's great concentration, he couldn't help but feel shocked.
