Everyone was clear on one point. The critical issue was to find the father and son of the Yan family. No matter if it was the Whirlwind Cloud Valley or the Spirit Fla Sect alliances, they all sent out countless disciples to search everywhere for their whereabouts.
But Lin Xuan was careful and ticulous when he took action and did not leave any evidence or tracks. The various sects worked for a long while and still did not turn up anything.
Only when Lin Xuan finished purifying the pills and ca out to get so fresh air did he hear about these things from Zhao Ming. He did not show anything on his face but was endlessly shocked in his heart.
He did not think that the death of the father and son of the Yan family would cause such an uproar. Of course, he did not feel guilty about it at all.
Firstly, the reason for this whole affair was because Yan TianHeng attacked and killed the people of the Wang family and stole their cultivation technique. That had nothing to do with Lin Xuan. Secondly, Lin Xuan killed the two of them because they wanted him to die there. Should he not have taken action and waited for them to kill him?
Lin Xuan was not dumb. If you do not offend , then I won’t offend you. If you offend , then I will imdiately and rcilessly take action. To survive in the cultivation world, one needed to learn how to be cold-hearted. Lin Xuan was not addicted to killing, but when dealing with enemies, he would not show a shred of rcy.
It doesn’t matter how big the uproar in the world is, it had nothing to do with him. Even if the sky fell, there would be people higher than him to support it, he would let those expert elders worry about it. As to himself, his top priority right now was single-heartedly devote himself to raising his strength.
Because Lin Xuan’s cultivation was still not at a level where he did not need sustenance, he ordered Zhao Ming to have the kitchen prepare for him a lot of dried ats and rations. The children were not suspicious at all, they thought that the lord immortal was preparing to shut himself in and sleep in again.
After having finished preparing everything, Lin Xuan started to focus on cultivating.
Consuming pills every day, sitting in ditation, training his spirit…
This so-called cultivation was basically absorbing the energy of heaven and earth. changing it into one’s own Spiritual Qi, and storing it in one’s dantian. But the cultivation techniques of the Spirit Condensation stage were very basic which all involved the circulation of that vital energy.
Although they were all about moving the vital energy through one’s ridians, but different cultivation techniques had different paths through the ridians. The effects on one’s cultivation were also very large.
For example, the cultivation technique that Lin Xuan previously practiced. It was only a basic one that the sect gave to ordinary disciples. The rate at which it converted the natural energy to Spiritual Qi was only so-so. It also didn’t have any special characteristics.
But in this journey, other than the mid-rank cultivation technique, he also bought the Soaring Cloud technique. This was the best basic cultivation technique of the Soaring Cloud Sect. Compared to the Flying Cloud Spirit technique that the Whirlwind Cloud Valley gave to its disciples, it was not at all inferior. They each had their own rits.
Lin Xuan held the jade slip in his hand and inserted his Spiritual Sense into it. Imdiately afterward, he lifted his head, a happy expression on his face. The Soaring Cloud technique had a well-deserved reputation. The path of circulation of vital energy described in it was more exquisite, fine, and ticulous. Although he had not yet practiced it, with just a look, he could already tell that it was out of the ordinary.
Calming down and sitting down, Lin Xuan waited for the effects of the pills he consud to manifest, then following the thods recorded in the Soaring Cloud technique, started the new path of circulation of vital energy.
…
Four hours later, Lin Xuan opened his eyes. With that cultivation technique he was practicing before, it would only take a little over one hour to complete one cycle of vital energy circulation. But now he had spent over three tis that, and the tempering effects on his ridians were better than before. Also, the rate at which natural vital energy was converted was greatly increased. This Soaring Cloud technique was definitely not an ordinary technique.
But it can’t be said that there were no downsides. Compared to ordinary cultivation techniques, the circulation of vital energy of the Soaring Cloud technique was much harder. Doing it once would consu five or six tis the amount of energy that would have been consud before.
If it was soone ordinary, they would definitely not be able to persevere.
Lin Xuan finally understood why the sect only gave the ordinary disciples basic cultivation techniques and only gave those elite disciples the good techniques. It wasn’t that the sect did not want to keep it a secret, but instead, the better the cultivation technique, the harder it was to practice. The vital energy circulation of these techniques would not be able to be practiced by these disciples with lower aptitudes.
As for Lin Xuan, he was a special case. Although he had no spiritual roots, but he was wise and extrely tenacious. He was even able to endure the Heart Refinent Road Therefore, although he had low natural talent, with his willpower, he was still able to learn such a cultivation technique.
This had nothing to do with the support of pills. It was purely because Lin Xuan worked harder than others.
…
Day after day passes, in the blink of an eye, over a month has passed.
The trash pills storage was quiet as usual, the children were bored and once again, sunning themselves. The manager’s door was still closed. They really admired the fact that he could sleep for so long.
This was all a ruse by Lin Xuan to avoid the suspicion of others. In reality, at this mont, he had arrived at a critical point of breaking through the bottleneck.
With the Soaring Cloud technique and the support of the dicinal pills, Lin Xuan made progress with lightning speed in that short period. He had already arrived at the peak of the fourth layer. With one more step forward, he would be able to step into the realm of the latter layers of the Spirit Condensation stage.
He consud two mid-grade pills and started to attempt to breakthrough. The Spiritual Qi in his body endlessly circulated and ford into a ball in his dantian. The vital energy he absorbed mixed with the dicinal power of the pills and continuously supplented that ball of spiritual Qi.
The originally light cyan ball of Spiritual Qi, under the nourishnt of dicinal power, started to beco darker in color. It started to speedily rotate and then started to decompose into many strands of spiritual power.
The ball of Spiritual Qi beca smaller. But the spiritual power in his ridians was continually being replenished. Just like this, they once again entered into the ball of spiritual energy and were tempered once more before being dispersed.
Do not underestimate this process. It was easy to describe but very hard to complete. If one was even slightly inattentive, the spiritual energy ball would split open, causing one to fail in breaking through the bottleneck.
But if all the spiritual power in one’s body underwent this tempering, then they would undergo a tamorphosis. They would have successfully stepped past the threshold of the latter stages of the Spirit Condensation stage.
Lin Xuan’s forehead was drenched with sweat. He was being very careful. It took a lot of effort to arrive at this stage, he did not want all of his previous effort to go to waste.
The minutes and seconds ticked past. Lin Xuan’s clothes had all been drenched with sweat but he stayed motionless and continued to persevere.
…
Another two hours passed. Lin Xuan suddenly swayed and fell back onto the hardwood floor. It was not because he had failed in breaking through the bottleneck. He had succeeded but was so exhausted that he did not even have the power to sit up.
“So dangerous!” Although he was so tired that he did not even want to move his fingers, he still had a smile on his face. He has finally reached the fifth layer and entered into the latter layers of the Spirit Condensation stage.
