The convoy rolled steadily along the northern road, leaving Xianling City farther behind with each passing hour.
Inside the lead carriage, Xian Tiandi sat in a ditative posture while the others conversed quietly or watched the scenery pass by.
The first few days of travel had been relatively peaceful. They passed through small villages and towns, stopping occasionally to rest the horses and replenish supplies.
The landscape gradually changed from the familiar plains around Xianling City to more hilly terrain with dense forests on either side of the road.
Xian Tiandi spent most of his ti cultivating.
Even while the carriage was moving, he maintained his ditation, circulating both the Chaos Dao Cultivation Technique and the Chaos Divine Body Technique simultaneously.
The others in the carriage had learned to speak quietly when he was in this state, not wanting to disturb him.
Ying Yue occasionally glanced at him with concern. She could sense the powerful energy fluctuations emanating from his body during these cultivation sessions.
The air around him seed to shimr slightly, and sotis she thought she could see faint traces of multicolored light surrounding him.
Xiao Ming had gotten used to the journey after the initial excitent wore off. He now spent his ti practicing the basic cultivation exercises that Xian Tiandi had taught him.
The boy was diligent, repeating the movents over and over even when his arms grew tired.
Xian Long also cultivated seriously whenever possible.
The young boy understood that this journey was not just about reaching their destination but also about growing stronger. He followed Xian Tiandi’s earlier advice about focusing on stability rather than speed.
Zhou Kang, in the carriage behind them, spent his ti working on controlling his War Fiendgod Divine Body.
The physique had powerful battle instincts that sotis threatened to overwhelm his rational mind.
He practiced suppression techniques that his ancestor had taught him, trying to master this double-edged sword he had been blessed with.
The Fang Clan convoy traveled alongside them for the first three days before their paths diverged at a major crossroads.
Fang Ling had waved enthusiastically from her carriage window as they parted ways, much to Ying Yue’s relief.
The girl’s open interest in the Young Master had continued to make Ying Yue feel uncomfortable.
By the fifth day of travel, Xian Tiandi’s cultivation had reached a critical point.
Both his Qi Refinent Realm and Body Refinent Realm were now fully consolidated at Stage 10.
The foundations were solid and stable. He was ready for the dual breakthrough.
That evening, when they stopped to make camp in a clearing beside the road, Xian Tiandi inford the others that he would be entering closed-door cultivation.
"I’ll be breaking through tonight," he told Ying Yue and Xian Long. "Don’t disturb unless there’s a serious ergency. Elder Feng and Elder Qiu will handle any threats."
"Yes, Young Master," Ying Yue replied imdiately. "We’ll make sure you’re not disturbed."
Xian Long nodded seriously. "I’ll keep watch too, Big Brother."
Zhou Kang, when inford, simply grunted his acknowledgnt and positioned himself near Xian Tiandi’s tent.
Despite their past conflict, he took his role as a companion seriously.
Inside his tent, Xian Tiandi sat cross-legged on a ditation mat. He had set up several basic defensive arrays around the tent to prevent any accidental intrusions.
Then he withdrew a large number of spirit stones from his storage ring and arranged them in a circular pattern around himself.
He also consud a Chaos Body Refinent Pill and a high-grade Qi Condensation Pill simultaneously.
The two pills dissolved in his mouth, releasing powerful dicinal energy that flooded through his body.
Then he began.
The dual breakthrough was not sothing most cultivators could even attempt. In the entire cultivation world, the vast majority of people could only walk one path.
They either beca Immortal Cultivators who focused on Qi refinent and Dao comprehension, or they beca Martial Cultivators who focused on body tempering and physical power.
The reason for this limitation was fundantal. A cultivator’s spirit root determined their elental affinity.
Soone with a fire spirit root could only absorb and refine fire-attribute Qi efficiently.
Trying to absorb other types of Qi would be inefficient at best and harmful at worst. This ant that most cultivation techniques were designed for specific elental affinities.
Martial cultivation, on the other hand, required an extrely strong physical body as its foundation.
The process of body refinent was painful and resource-intensive. Most people who chose this path did so because they lacked a good spirit root for Immortal cultivation. They had no choice but to focus entirely on the martial path.
Those rare individuals who tried to walk both paths simultaneously usually ended up diocre in both.
Their attention and resources were divided, so they couldn’t excel in either direction. This was why dual cultivation was considered foolish by most experts.
But Xian Tiandi was different.
His Chaos Spirit Root was special. It wasn’t limited to a single elent or even multiple specific elents.
The Chaos Spirit Root could absorb and refine all types of elental Qi equally well. Fire, water, wind, earth, lightning, ice, light, darkness—everything could be absorbed and converted into Chaos Qi.
This ant he faced none of the usual limitations of elental affinity.
His Chaos Divine Physique was equally special. It was a body constitution specifically designed to support dual cultivation.
The physique automatically balanced the energies from both cultivation paths, preventing conflicts or imbalances.
His Celestial Immortal Body, which had awakened alongside the Chaos Divine Physique, provided additional support with its incredible regenerative capabilities.
Most importantly, the Chaos Dao Cultivation Technique and Chaos Divine Body Technique were designed as a matched pair.
They weren’t two separate techniques that happened to work together—they were two halves of a complete system.
Cultivating one without the other would leave gaps in the foundation. Cultivating both together created a synergy that multiplied their effectiveness.
This was the path that no one in his past life had successfully walked. This was the perfect foundation he was building.
Xian Tiandi’s consciousness split, focusing on both breakthroughs simultaneously.
This level of multitasking would be impossible for normal cultivators, but his soul had been tempered through thousands of years of life in his previous existence.
His ntal strength was far beyond what his apparent age suggested.
In his dantian, the gaseous Qi that had accumulated began to condense.
This was the fundantal principle of the Qi Condensation Realm—transforming Qi from a gaseous state into a liquid state.
The process required trendous pressure and precise control.
The Chaos Qi swirled in his dantian like a miniature storm. Gradually, tiny droplets began to form.
These droplets fell like rain, collecting at the bottom of his dantian. The gaseous Qi above grew thinner while the liquid Qi below grew deeper.
For normal cultivators, the goal of the Qi Condensation Realm was to eventually fill their dantian with liquid Qi until it ford a small pond.
The size of this pond varied from person to person, but generally, it was about the size of a small bowl or cup. Those with exceptional talent might have a pond the size of a large bowl.
But Xian Tiandi’s dantian was different. The Chaos Spirit Root and Chaos Dao Cultivation Technique had expanded his dantian to an enormous size during the Qi Refinent Realm.
Now, as he condensed his Qi, the pond that ford would be ten tis larger than normal. Instead of a small bowl, his Qi pond would be the size of a large basin or even a small tub.
This ant his total Qi reserves would be ten tis greater than cultivators at the sa realm.
He could fight longer, use more powerful techniques, and recover faster than anyone else at the Qi Condensation Realm.
The condensation process continued for hours. Drop by drop, the liquid Qi accumulated.
The pond grew slowly but steadily. Xian Tiandi maintained perfect control throughout, ensuring the condensation happened evenly and without any impurities mixing in.
While his Immortal cultivation progressed, his Martial cultivation was undergoing its own transformation.
