The vortex that had gathered in mid-air above the Ethereal Dao College lasted for a full four hours. As it grew in size, it was like a black hole that gathered all the Spirit Qi that was drifting in all directions. This caused the spectators to feel invigorated as they felt the indescribably thick Spirit Qi around them.
The Spirit Qi was so thick that it was almost liquefied. It made the interior of the Ethereal Dao College seem to be underwater. All the disciples were cultivating rapidly, and the spectators outside the island were doing the same. Even though it couldn't compare to what was happening on the island, it was still a great opportunity for them.
At the same time, in the capital city of the Federation, Duan Muque stood in front of the window of the President's office and looked in the direction of the Ethereal Dao College. The clouds in the sky were still moving, and he could sense that Li Xingwen's aura was rising continuously in the direction of the Ethereal Dao College. This aura was becoming stronger and stronger, and it had already surpassed the Core Formation realm. To a certain extent, Li Xingwen was already a Yuanying!
However, he was different from the usual Yuanying. As a Yuanying in the New Law Era, his breakthrough was extremely difficult. It could even be said that with Li Xingwen's exceptional talent, his current cultivation level would have surpassed that of a Yuanying long ago if he had been in another mature cultivation civilization.
However, in the Federation, the resources, Spirit Qi, and the weak Stellar Source all limited his growth. However, it wasn't without its benefits. Despite such limitations, he was still able to achieve a breakthrough. It could be said that the moment he became a Yuanying, he was naturally much stronger than the new Yuanying of other civilizations.
Therefore, even though he already had a Yuanying cultivation level, he was still absorbing Spirit Qi. On one hand, it was to strengthen himself, and on the other hand, it was to let the disciples of the four major Dao Colleges have more Spirit Qi to absorb!
As the President of the Federation, Duan Muque didn't approve of this. Earth's Spirit Qi came from the fragments. Although it seemed endless, there was still a limit. Unless a new method of replacing Spirit Qi could be found before the limit was reached, the cultivation civilization of the entire Federation would only last for a short time.
He couldn't accept this, so he didn't approve of forcefully absorbing Spirit Energy to nourish the younger generation. However, he could understand Li Xingwen's decision. After all, he was the president of the Federation.
Therefore, after a moment of silence, Duan Muque took a deep breath and retracted his gaze from the sky. He looked toward the northwest and slowly narrowed his eyes. He seemed to be deep in thought.
In the direction that Duan Muque was looking at, there was a valley far away from the capital city. There was a pavilion in the valley, and a white-haired elder was sitting cross-legged in the pavilion.
This elder had the demeanor of a transcendent being. He wore a Daoist robe, and the aura emanating from his body surpassed that of the Core Formation realm. He was a Yuanying cultivator. This was the Yuanying powerhouse who had hunted down the three extraterrestrial cultivators in the video that Duan Muque had posted!
At that moment, he was also looking in the direction of the Ethereal Dao College. He looked at the clouds in the sky and sensed the rapidly rising aura of his peers. This elder was both gratified and emotional.
"I hope that Elder Feng's expectations can be perfectly fulfilled in this new cultivation civilization …" As he muttered to himself, the elder closed his eyes.
At the same time, Li Xingwen's advancement had also reached a critical juncture. As the Spirit Qi continued to gather amidst the loud rumbling noises, and as his breakthrough continued to erupt, all the disciples on the Upper Academy Island were shaken to the core. Their bodies were also trembling. This was because the Spirit Qi there was so rich that they didn't even need to actively absorb it. The Spirit Qi would automatically enter their pores and circulate throughout their bodies!
At that moment, Wang Baole's body was also trembling. As his expression changed, it was as if a small vortex had appeared where he was, sucking in the Spirit Qi that had gathered into his body.
If he were to cultivate the Thunder Dao: Central Volume now, Wang Baole's cultivation level would increase. However, after pondering for a while, he didn't choose the Thunder Dao: Central Volume. Instead, he sensed that the Spirit Qi entering his body could not only increase his cultivation level, but also temper his physical body. His eyes shone with a strange light.
"Right now, I have the Dark Core and the Thunder Core. My combat ability is close to the middle stage of the Core Formation realm … However, when I unleash my full power, my physical body, which was originally strong enough to withstand this power, seems to be unable to adapt …
"Therefore, the most important thing for me now may not be the cultivation techniques needed for the Core Formation realm, but … to increase the strength of my physical body!" Wang Baole took a deep breath. He closed his eyes and looked internally at the Green Lotus in his body. After looking at the lotus seed pod that contained the Dark Core and the Thunder Core, his gaze fell on the main lotus seed pod of the Green Lotus.
Ever since he had obtained the Green Lotus, he had already sensed that this object didn't increase his cultivation level significantly. However, it had a great impact on his physical body. Moreover, although Wang Baole hadn't seen any information about the Green Lotus in the Dark Sect's ancient records in the Dark Dream, he had seen some cultivation techniques for the physical body.
However, these cultivation techniques all required Dark Core. At the same time, most of them could only be used by those in the Spirit Immortal realm. However, this gave Wang Baole a direction. Therefore, at that moment, Wang Baole couldn't help but have an idea.
"Perhaps I can borrow the Spiritual Qi gathered by the Grand Supreme Elder and … use my physical body to reach the Core Formation realm!" At that thought, Wang Baole immediately made up his mind. Without hesitation, he performed an incantation gesture with both hands. Immediately, the Spiritual Qi in his body surged into the main lotus seed pod!
As the Spiritual Qi entered, the main lotus seed pod trembled slightly. Then, it began to emit a green light. This light seemed to be able to penetrate his internal organs and flesh, causing Wang Baole's entire body to turn green.
Under this green light, his bones began to regenerate. His flesh and blood grew densely. His internal organs also seemed to be strengthened. The sound of his heartbeat grew louder and stronger. In the end, when it reached Wang Baole's ears, it sounded like the roar of thunder.
"The strength of my physical body is increasing!" Wang Baole was excited. He simply activated the devouring seed in his body. Instantly, a large amount of the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings was absorbed. Soon, the people around him also noticed it. They immediately dispersed in shock. Now, Wang Baole was the only one left. The vortex that appeared around his body grew even larger. As the roar reverberated, even the Sect Leaders of the other three Dao Colleges noticed the abnormality around Wang Baole. They all began to pay attention to him.
However, Wang Baole didn't care about any of that. At that moment, he was completely immersed in the tempering of his physical body. A cycle had already formed in his body.
Absorbing Spiritual Qi, fusing it with the green lotus, releasing green light, and strengthening his physical body!
During the process of this cycle, the green lotus in his body shook violently and began to slowly grow!
As it grew, the green glow it exuded became more and more effective at strengthening one's physical body. As a result, Wang Baole was agitated, and a sense of comfort that was completely different from when he was practicing his cultivation technique surfaced inside and outside his body. It was as if countless small hands were touching his entire body, causing his skin to slowly emit a green glow. In the end, he, who was sitting cross-legged, looked completely green!
The sound of his heartbeat could be heard from within his body. It spread in all directions and created an echo!
This thumping sound caused the Ethereal Dao College Sect Leader and the other Dao Colleges' Sect Leaders to be shocked. Even the Holy River Dao College Sect Leader cried out in surprise.
"Heartbeat like thunder. I've read about it in an incomplete manual. This is a realm in the Ancient Sword civilization that cultivates the physical body. This realm is called the Core Heart realm, and it's comparable to a cultivator's Core Formation realm!
"Although the incomplete manual doesn't have a cultivation method, it does have a description. This so-called Heart Core is actually transforming one's heart into a Core. When the sound of one's heartbeat is incomparably deep, like the sound of a medicinal pill bouncing on a plate, but there is no response, it means … that one has successfully stepped into the Heart Core Stage!"
As the Holy River Sect Leader spoke hurriedly, the other Sect Leaders looked over. Even the Grand Supreme Elders of the three major Dao Colleges noticed the abnormality. The moment their gazes swept over …
The heavens and earth roared. An aura that surpassed the Core Formation realm and truly belonged to the Yuanying realm suddenly erupted from the mountain where Li Xingwen was cultivating in seclusion. With this eruption, the wind and clouds in the sky surged and condensed into a small figure. This small figure looked exactly like Li Xingwen. He stood in mid-air and looked around. As he laughed, everyone around him was excited and bowed to him. After the small figure returned the greeting, his gaze suddenly fell on Wang Baole. His expression was one of surprise.
"Interesting!" The small figure smiled. As he formed a seal, he pointed at Wang Baole. Instantly, Wang Baole's body trembled. The Spirit Qi in the surroundings was even more shocking than before. It gathered madly into his body!
Instantly, cracking sounds came from his body. The sound of his heartbeat also changed rapidly at this moment. It went from an echo to … there was no echo. It didn't even sound like a heartbeat. It sounded more like the sound of an elixir falling onto a plate!
After doing all this, Li Xingwen's Yuanying laughed loudly once again. He transformed into a beam of purple light and headed straight for the mountain below!
In the next moment, the mountain trembled and a huge crack appeared. Li Xingwen's figure had already walked out after the Yuanying returned to its original position!
His appearance caused all the cultivators on and off Upper Academy Island to freeze. Other than Wang Baole, who was still cultivating and didn't know what was happening, everyone else bowed deeply to Li Xingwen.
"Congratulations, Grand Supreme Elder, for advancing to Yuanying!"
"Congratulations, Senior Li, for advancing to Yuanying!"
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Li, for advancing to Yuanying!"
