At this mont, although everyone had yet to grasp the thod Jun Wu Xiao spoke of or how to implent it, at least they knew it was feasible. Sheng Yuan voiced the group’s curiosity:
"You said sothing about alchemy. Do you an mixing a bunch of poisons like the ancient people did?"
Jun Wu Xiao imdiately shook his head and replied:
"No, why would I do sothing so foolish? Right now, you can’t sense the dark energy in nature, but I’ll explain it to you. When you reach the energy-gathering realm, you can sense the presence of dark energy in nature. You can use your spirit to directly feel and absorb it, but this way doesn’t speed things up. Instead, focus the dark energy into the palm of your hand, concentrate it into a sphere, and when you can no longer hold it, push that sphere into your body. This thod will double the speed compared to normal cultivation."
Everyone was surprised to hear this, as they had many questions. Xia Ni asked:
"Is dark energy the type of energy that has helped us cultivate?"
Others shared the sa thought but still needed to ask to confirm.
Jun Wu Xiao nodded and replied:
"Yes, I call it dark energy because it has no color and cannot directly affect matter in its basic form."
Chu Wu then asked:
"What’s the difference between normal cultivation and this alchemy? I still don’t understand why this thod can double the speed."
Jun Wu Xiao wasn’t entirely certain but explained as he understood it:
"I can’t be 100% sure, but I think it’s due to cosmic rules. Direct absorption into the body has its limits, but gathering dark energy into a sphere does not. This also ans that after breaking through to a new realm, the cultivation speed will be faster than the previous realm."
Hearing this, everyone nodded, naturally feeling very pleased. If this thod could succeed, they could quickly break through to new realms.
"Thank you for coming to inform us about this. Although we can’t start practicing this thod right now, it’s enough to know about it." Yan ng Long said.
Jun Wu Xiao nodded and reminded:
"Oh, and if you want to cultivate at double speed, your head will be extrely painful."
Chu Wu snorted in response:
"Hmph, do we look like we’re afraid of a little pain? You must rember how terribly we were beaten by the monsters back then. We didn’t fear that, so why would we be afraid of a headache?"
"Haha, alright. I’ll be on my way then." Jun Wu Xiao said. Then he carried Gu Zhou Jian and flew towards the Kunlun Mountains.
The others returned to their respective cultivation retreats. They had no interest in leisure activities, so they dedicated themselves to diligent cultivation.
Gu Zhou Jian’s body’s endurance had improved significantly after his breakthrough, so Jun Wu Xiao’s speed wasn’t too slow. Before long, they reached the outskirts of the Kunlun Mountains.
They continued for a while, searching for Yue Guang’s location. Not long after, Yue Guang sensed their presence and ca out to et them.
Seeing her path companion holding soone else, Yue Guang didn’t feel anything. However, joking was more fun than being serious.
"Hmph, having fun with a young girl, huh? It’s been two years since you last ca back. Should I go out and find a few more young girls for you to play with?"
Being bombarded with such questions right after eting made Jun Wu Xiao’s brain temporarily stall. He shook his head and said:
"I’m innocent! I haven’t been doing anything wrong. For the past two years, I’ve been cultivating in closed seclusion at your place."
Yue Guang narrowed her eyes at him, her tone skeptical:
"Only cultivating? Really didn’t do anything else?"
Jun Wu Xiao realized she intended to play this out. So no matter how he answered, she wouldn’t believe him.
Seeing his helpless expression, Gu Zhou Jian laughed and said:
"Haha, big sister, he’s telling the truth. For the past two years, most of the ti we’ve been in closed-door cultivation. In the first few days, we did wander around a bit, and not long ago, he went to test the current weapons of the humans."
Hearing this, Yue Guang beca curious. She stopped joking and asked seriously:
"How has human developnt progressed?"
Seeing her finally change the tone, Jun Wu Xiao answered seriously:
"It’s beyond imagination. Although I couldn’t test humanity’s strongest weapon, the one I tested was fully capable of destroying the fifteen-ter-tall monster from back then."
Yue Guang nodded, but that monster was no longer a significant threat to her. She asked:
"Is that all it takes to be beyond imagination?"
Jun Wu Xiao shook his head and then changed the comparison to illustrate its power.
"That bomb has enough power to kill if I stood at the point of maximum damage. How about that? Isn’t that enough to call it a remarkable advancent?"
Yue Guang was astonished to hear this. The power of this bomb far exceeded the explosives she used in the past. She nodded and said:
"With those weapons combined with our efforts, even monsters at the energy-gathering realm could be killed. It’s just that we might not survive it."
She wasn’t exaggerating. In terms of body hardness, monsters had a much higher toughness than cultivators. This ant that if a monster took a direct hit from a bomb, it might survive, but a cultivator holding it back would likely die.
Quân Vô Tiếu just laughed and said:
"Are we really afraid of dying? If we feared death, we wouldn’t have risked our lives back then."
Yue Guang nodded and replied:
"Of course I’m not afraid, but with your goals and hers, I’m not so sure. After all, what you two want is to be strong enough so nothing can threaten you, allowing you to enjoy the world freely, not to bear responsibilities like us."
At this point, Gu Zhou Jian spoke:
"Big sister, I do want that, but it’s not because I fear death. I cultivate because the feeling of weakness bothers . If one day they attack Earth again, I wouldn’t hesitate to fight."
Jun Wu Xiao nodded, adding:
"That’s right. I just want to completely erase the existence of monsters from this universe. Not because of humanity, but because I hate them."
