The common saying goes, "A small boat turns swiftly."
Sotis, when the foundation is excessively robust, a breakthrough brings greater benefits, but the process becos much more arduous.
Lu Yao ate Ten-Complete Immortal Pills daily, received massages from four beauties who spared no True Qi, and even more, he was personally coached by Yu Yani, an 18-year-old genius who had beco a Grandmaster.
Not to ntion Li Pei's Orchid Fragrance, which he could sll anyti, an extraordinary woman of such caliber in the history of Divine Land could be counted on one hand.
Plus, the especially potent "plutonium-239", the simultaneous practice of three different Cultivation Techniques, and so on and so forth…
Lu Yao's "cheating" allowed him to fly in terms of progress, forging an exceptionally robust foundation, so much so that it took two months of seclusion to finally break through!
On March 8th, Yu Yani, who had always been guarding outside the quiet room, suddenly felt a movent in her heart!
She suddenly sensed a surging life force within the room, followed by a torrent of True Qi violently swelling, shaking the quiet room to its core.
Knowing that her little man had reached the critical mont, Yu Yani stood up, stared intently at the quiet room, her fists clenched tightly.
The surging life force grew even stronger, like the warm sun in winter. Even separated by a wall, Yu Yani felt as if she were basking in the spring breeze.
But inside, she was becoming increasingly anxious, unsure if her little man had succeeded or not…
Then, in less than a second, a massive amount of True Qi suddenly exploded out, driving the air into a roar, shattering the quiet room's door and walls all at once!
Bricks scattered and dust flew everywhere.
Through the haze, a silhouette slowly erged—it was Lu Yao!
"Why didn't you tell there would be such a commotion when breaking through…"
He walked out with a smile, baring a neat row of white teeth, his clothes destroyed by the rampaging True Qi, his body fully exposed.
With a chest broad like a fan, broad shoulders, a slim waist, and long proportionate legs.
The muscles had a natural, flowing beauty, tempting to the touch.
But the most striking thing at the mont was the fiery "wave of Qi" rippling across his body, scraping the ground clean.
This was the rampaging surge of True Qi ford, which was twenty or thirty tis the quantity of the Innate Realm, indicating that Lu Yao had successfully ascended to the Jin Realm but was yet to fully grasp control.
"Your foundation is too robust… After your breakthrough, your strength has surged, and you can't control it freely for the ti being."
Yu Yani explained while she took off her own clothes to demonstrate for her little man.
The bellyband was too troubleso to undo, she simply tore it off to reveal her flawless, extraordinarily radiant body reminiscent of a lunar goddess.
"The 720 Aperture Points around the body are like valves and switches, the True Qi becos like the torrents that Yu the Great once subdued…"
Yu Yani actively placed Lu Yao's hand on her body as all the Aperture Points vibrated and opened and closed, twinkling like the stars in the sky, the True Qi behaving obediently and softly.
This direct lesson made it instantly understandable. Lu Yao tried the sa thing, and his surging True Qi indeed beca much gentler.
He looked up and said with a smile, "This is really effective… Speaking of which, why aren't you wearing the underwear I gave you?"
Yu Yani smiled radiantly, as if a hundred flowers were blossoming, "I'm not used to it. I'll just keep wearing my usual ones… Lu Xiaozi, congratulations!"
"I also have to thank you for looking after for two months. Feeling you were outside made a lot more at ease."
"It's nothing, I was also taking the opportunity to ponder the subtleties of Fetal Breath myself."
The two chatted softly for a while, then, as if by telepathy, they hugged each other tightly at the sa ti, as if trying to fuse into one another, pouring out boundless joy from their hearts.
At this mont, the rest of the girls at ho heard the commotion and rushed over with their swift movents.
Everyone's faces were brimming with uncontainable joy; Liao Qe was the first to leap onto Lu Yao, screaming, "You made it!"
Liao Ya's eyes shone brightly with emotion, her voice trembling a bit, "Congratulations to Junior Brother for ascending to the Jin Realm without flaws!"
Lady Xiao also wanted to step forward and offer her congratulations, but seeing Lu Yao in such an indecent state, she refrained from approaching.
Looking at the lively group of youngsters, she figured it was better not to disturb them.
She turned around with a smile to go back to her room, but accidentally caught sight of Yu Yani getting dressed and was instantly startled:
"Their relationship isn't ordinary, it seems... The rumors mustn't be unfounded."
At this mont, Su Erya also excitedly stepped forward to congratulate.
Seeing that Lu Yao wasn't wearing any clothes, her face instantly turned bright red, and she shyly lowered her head, daring not to look again, yet she couldn't help stealing a few glances.
It took quite a bit of courage for her to speak, and she could only say half a sentence, "Congratulations, Uncle-Master..." before she was shoved aside by three Spiritual Sparrowhawks that missed their owner greatly and cuddled around him nonstop with their necks.
Erya pouted unhappily, appearing so endearing that she hardly resembled the "Asura Fairy" who was feared at the re ntion of her na.
With so many people coming over, the quiet Cultivation Quiet Room beca extrely lively.
After everyone made a fuss for a while, Lu Yao finally said, "First, find so clothes and then get more food—I am so hungry!"
Only then did everyone realize that Lu Yao was still unclothed.
~~~~~~~~~~
The Liao Family Sisters and Su Erya quickly prepared a rich feast.
Liao Qe was seen holding a copper basin, gathering True Qi in just a few breaths, heating the soup base in the basin until it began to roll and boil.
Erya added lamb rolls and tofu among other items to hotpot.
Liao Ya was roasting a whole pig on the side, using her True Qi to cook it to perfection, the aroma wafting through the air.
True Qi was incredibly precious, and others, who didn't even have enough for their own cultivation, could only dream of such luxury to cook with, which only the Lu family could afford.
Grabbing his chopsticks, he devoured the food like a whirlwind, and within monts he seed to have ingested a hundred pounds of food.
Then he picked up a large bowl of the Golden Elixir Brew that Liao Ya had just brewed, gulped it down in one breath, and finally let out a contented sigh:
"Ah~ revived. This brew is really delicious! And it's chilly?"
"I placed a piece of Ice Jade into it while brewing, glad it turned out well."
Liao Ya smiled elegantly, filling her junior brother's cup again.
With the addition of Ice Jade, the strength of the Golden Elixir Brew could even affect those in the No-Leak Realm.
Lu Yao slowly sipped and shared, "This breakthrough, my biggest realization is that the more you know, the more reverence you have. The human body is truly amazing, no other creation in the world cos close to one ten-thousandth of its intricacy!"
"Flesh Realm" combined with Inner Vision gave Lu Yao the ability of "Crafting the Subtle and Mysterious," allowing him to see the tiniest parts of his body as if he was observing them under a microscope.
This also increased his awe for the miraculous construction of the human body, with 720 Aperture Points throughout the body, as if they were inherently ant for cultivation.
"The human body is like a machine that operates on the lowest power consumption after being stripped of all privileges... And cultivation is like gradually reactivating these privileges one by one!"
Lu Yao suddenly had this epiphany.
He used to think that Blue Star's technology was advanced, but now he realized that many of mankind's proudest technologies were not even on par with wild animals, and an aircraft carrier wasn't even as exquisite as a finger.
Liao Ya laughed and said, "Not bad, junior brother, you have finally developed a sense of reverence for cultivation. You used to be too carefree."
"I indeed was a bit too arrogant." Lu Yao laughed as well, and then said:
"Right, using sea pressure for cultivation is crucial! This breakthrough was greatly aided by it, and you all should give it a try!"
Enduring the pressure at the sea bottom isn't just excellent extre training; the body will also instinctively use the Aperture Points to breathe, absorbing oxygen from the water, which is absolutely beneficial for cultivation.
In the Otherworld's ocean live gargantuan sea monsters, but Lu Yao had thought of a way to deal with them. He was about to share it when Li Pei hurried back.
"Congratulations to my lord, felicitations to my lord~" She was also bubbling with joy, revealing two rows of pearly white teeth with her smile.
She then began to report on her duties:
"The state of affairs in the nation is smooth, and all matters are progressing in an orderly fashion. Following your instructions, the Imperial Fist was the first to complete reorganization. Are you planning to use troops against Izumo?"
"We'll first take down Goryeo, which has been occupied by Izumo, to train the troops and cut off their possibility for land reinforcents."
