Ti flew by, and a day and a night had passed.
During this ti, Xu Ping’an was working on unlocking his ridians.
At this mont, his three primary ridians were fully penetrated, and even the hidden veins were just a hair’s breadth away from being opened.
The dicinal power of the Yin Yang Flower had completely dissipated, and even the Lower Grade Spirit Stones in his hand were already the fourth one.
However, Xu Ping’an did not care; he took out the fifth Lower Grade Spirit Stone and, in one fell swoop, broke through the last bit of his ridians.
Broken through!
Xu Ping’an was thrilled.
Now that the four main ridians were open, it was ti to form the Pill Sea.
In his previous life, he had only managed to penetrate three; now in this life, he wanted to see just how vast the Pill Sea ford by four main ridians could be.
"Open for !" Xu Ping’an bellowed.
The four main ridians expanded at once, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the Lower Grade Spirit Stone in his hand was consud in an instant.
This ti, Xu Ping’an directly took out two Lower Grade Spirit Stones.
Yet, the spiritual energy within the Lower Grade Spirit Stones continued to diminish at a rate visible to the naked eye.
"Such a rapid absorption rate. Just one more main ridian, and the absorption speed has increased fivefold compared to when I first ford my Pill Sea in my previous life," Xu Ping’an marveled inwardly.
Each additional main ridian brought a qualitative leap forward.
With four main ridians penetrated and his Qi-Blood breaking through to the Thunder Third Layer Extre Realm, Xu Ping’an’s foundation could be described as perfect.
"Hum!"
In his abdominal area, Xu Ping’an distinctly felt a vast Pill Sea being ford by him.
Even with three ridians penetrated, the Pill Sea was only the size of an eyeball, but now Xu Ping’an’s Pill Sea was the size of an adult’s fist.
The spiritual energy condensed into True Yuan, exceedingly rich and dense.
"Sea-Splitting Realm First Layer! The reserves of this True Qi are no less than that of soone at the Fourth Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm. In terms of combat power, I could also take on the Fifth Layer," Xu Ping’an said to himself.
Before his breakthrough, his strength was comparable to the peak of the Third Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm.
Now, he was equivalent to the peak of the Fifth Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm, showing just how much his combat power had increased after the breakthrough.
This was still just after breaking through. Once he gained better control over his power and accumulated even denser True Yuan, he could even take on the Sixth Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm.
"Next ti I encounter Chen Wanshan, I can easily slay him. As for Chen Qinglong, he too is within my ability to fight. However, against Chen Tianqing, I’m still not strong enough," Xu Ping’an mused to himself.
But he was not in a hurry. To have reached this realm in such a short ti was already beyond his expectations.
Of course, all of this was thanks to his aunt.
"Auntie, wait for . Next ti, I will marry you openly and honorably," Xu Ping’an’s eyes shone with determination.
He then took a sword from within his Storage Token and slung it across his back.
He intended to practice the sword-nurturing combat technique, and nurturing the sword required constantly nourishing it with his own Qi-Blood and True Yuan, thus he must keep the sword close at all tis.
For fighting, there were many Mysterious Iron Swords in the Storage Token which would be sufficient.
The next mont, Xu Ping’an left the cave.
He wasn’t in a rush to find Zhou ngyue and others for revenge; rather, he planned to hunt so Demon Beasts.
…
"Boom!"
With a single sword strike, Xu Ping’an decapitated the head of a Second Rank, Fifth Layer Fierce Wind Green Wolf King.
This was the twelfth demon beast he had hunted.
```
It had been only three hours since he left the cave.
In these three hours, Xu Ping’an familiarized himself with the power he had just broken through by killing demon beasts.
And he planned to use the battle with the demon beasts to quickly break through to the Third Layer of the Thunder Triple Layer Technique, the Thunder Transformative Strength Realm.
Once he reached the Transformative Realm Levels, Xu Ping’an would fully possess the combat power of a Second Rank, Sixth Layer cultivator.
"Brother, is this the Gale Azure Wolf King? How did you kill it?"
Just as he was thinking, three young n suddenly approached from a distance, all dressed in the Inner Sect attire of the Beichen Sword Sect.
The cultivation of the three was not low either; two were at the Sea-Splitting Realm Fourth Layer, and one at the Sea-Splitting Realm Fifth Layer.
Such strength was considered upper-level within the Inner Sect.
The person who had spoken was the young man at the Sea-Splitting Realm Fifth Layer.
"It was just luck, I encountered it when it was severely injured," Xu Ping’an explained.
His current cultivation was only at the Sea-Splitting Realm First Layer.
The Gale Azure Wolf King was a demon beast at the Sea-Splitting Realm Fifth Layer, and normally even a person at the Sixth Layer would have difficulty killing it.
For Xu Ping’an to have killed it all by himself, it was hard not to arouse suspicion.
"I see, brother, you are really lucky, having directly killed an Azure Wolf King. With this achievent, you can definitely enter the top twenty of the Inner Sect," the young man said with a smile.
Xu Ping’an smiled, he didn’t really care about the rewards for the Sect trials.
He killed the Azure Wolf King solely because it was fast and attacked fiercely, making it a good subject for his training.
Seeing Xu Ping’an not responding, the others were not offended and continued to speak, "I forgot to introduce ourselves. My na is Song Qing, this is Li Mu, and he’s Wang Qi. May I ask for your na, brother?"
"Xu Ping’an!" Xu Ping’an responded indifferently.
"Brother Ping’an, since that’s the case, let get straight to the point. The three of us have discovered a cave, and inside the cave there’s a Fiery Sun Fruit tree that seems to have borne fruit, but there is a Vajra Giant Ape guarding it with the strength of a Second Rank, Seventh Layer. We would like to invite you to join us in dealing with the Vajra Giant Ape, and we’ll share the Fiery Sun Fruit equally afterwards," Song Qing proposed.
The other two also looked towards Xu Ping’an.
Xu Ping’an chuckled inwardly. Why were they looking for him?
Logically, if they really wanted to collaborate, they should look for soone of the sa rank. Why were they seeking him out, a Second Rank, First Layer?
Obviously, these three had plans to use him.
However, the Fiery Sun Fruit was indeed a good thing, a rare Spiritual dicine that could improve a cultivator’s strength in the Second Rank, Sea-Splitting Realm.
Although there were not bad things in his Storage Token space, they were all Second Rank, Third and Fourth Layer treasures, which weren’t of much help in improving his cultivation.
The Fiery Sun Fruit was just what he needed.
"Brother Song, aren’t you afraid I will drag you down?" Xu Ping’an asked with an expression of excitent.
"Why would you? Actually, we’ve already devised a strategy for dealing with that giant ape. We’re just short of hands. You won’t need to face the beast head-on, just assist us from the side," Song Qing answered with a smile.
"Right, younger brother, don’t worry about it. It’s just a beast without any spiritual intelligence. With the four of us working together, we will definitely be able to slay it," said the young man carrying the heavy sword, Li Mu, also laughing.
As for Wang Qi standing to the side, even though he did not speak, he waved his long spear as if to say, if it dares to co, I will skewer it with a single thrust.
Xu Ping’an just chuckled.
A Vajra Giant Ape at the Second Rank, Seventh Layer was comparable in strength to a cultivator at the Second Rank, Eighth Layer Peak.
Add to that its defense, and it might be invulnerable even to an average Second Rank, Ninth Layer cultivator.
Just the four of them wanting to kill this giant ape was wishful thinking.
"Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll join you brothers in slaying this demon beast," Xu Ping’an said with a laugh.
Upon hearing Xu Ping’an’s agreent, a faint smile also appeared on the faces of the three n.
But within that smile seed to be a hint of sothing more intriguing.
