Both Huang Chong and Wu Caiyun were martial arts practitioners, and both of their martial arts cultivation had long reached the Regulated Breathing realm. Especially Wu Caiyun, who was only one step away from the Martial Mystic level that many martial arts practitioners dreamed of.
Both of them had a deep understanding of martial arts cultivation, so they knew that it was not easy to cross the threshold from the Qi Nurturing realm to the Regulated Breathing realm. Many martial arts practitioners could not even cross this threshold in their entire lives. As experienced people, Huang Chong and Wu Caiyun knew very well that the inner strength of a martial arts practitioner could not be developed overnight. When one first stepped into the Regulated Breathing realm, the Qi and blood would be separated, and a trace of inner Qi would be born in the martial arts practitioner's Qi and blood. After that, to develop and strengthen this trace of inner Qi, one needed to supplement it with appropriate techniques, meditate every day, and breathe in and out. Only then could the inner Qi be strengthened.
Therefore, after reaching the Regulated Breathing realm, the strength of a martial arts practitioner's inner Qi was built up over time. Even inner strength was often described as "decades of practice". This meant that after stepping into the Regulated Breathing realm, it was not easy to increase one's inner strength. It would take years or decades of accumulation before one's inner strength could be achieved.
However, Huang Chong and Wu Caiyun had personally witnessed the strange things that happened to Qin Lang.
Qin Lang had just stepped into the Regulated Breathing realm, and his Inner Energy had started to advance by leaps and bounds, rising steadily.
Huang Chong and Wu Caiyun roughly estimated that in just a short while, Qin Lang's inner Qi cultivation had already reached 20 years of practice. It was equivalent to the inner Qi that an ordinary Regulated Breathing martial arts practitioner would need 20 years of practice to accumulate.
Of course, something like inner Qi could not only be accumulated through hard work and hard practice. The strength of a martial arts practitioner's inner Qi cultivation was not only related to the amount of time spent on hard work and practice, but also related to the inner Qi cultivation method used. There were strong and weak moves in outer sect martial arts, and similarly, there were strong and weak inner Qi cultivation methods.
A good inner Qi cultivation method could allow a cultivator to achieve twice the results with half the effort and improve by leaps and bounds. However, all the best inner Qi cultivation methods were viewed as treasures by all sects. Even the disciples would not easily pass them on. Only core disciples and the successor of the Sect Master could cultivate the top-notch Inner Force Cultivation Technique.
Huang Chong and Wu Caiyun cultivated Dragon Snake's inner force mental cultivation methods. Even though these methods couldn't be considered top-notch, they were still above average. Only, when they saw Qin Lang's current cultivation progress, the two of them felt like their own cultivation methods were just too trashy. They couldn't compare to Qin Lang's inner force mental cultivation methods at all.
Once he stepped into the Regulated Breathing realm, he already had the Inner Qi cultivation of twenty years of practice. This was simply too abnormal, too nature-defying!
Qin Lang did not know about Huang Chong and Wu Caiyun's shock. To Qin Lang, this time he had used Qu Bu Duoji's Dark Sky Great Handprint to break through to the Regulated Breathing realm. This was something that happened naturally. As for the Inner Qi in his meridians continuously strengthening, in Qin Lang's eyes, this was also something that happened naturally. This was because, unlike others, although Qin Lang's realm increased very quickly, he did not blindly pursue the advancement of realms. He had a solid foundation for every realm, and his foundation was incomparably firm. Especially when he was in the Bone Forging realm, Qin Lang's Buddhist, Devil, and Poison Sects combined into one, and his body's tendons and bones were honed to the extreme. Hence, after he entered the Qi Nourishing realm, Qin Lang's Qi and blood were also incomparably strong, and few could compare to him.
And after entering the Regulated Breathing realm from the Qi Nourishing realm, Qi and blood were separated. Because Qin Lang's Qi and blood were much stronger than those of the same realm, the Inner Qi produced was also much stronger than others. And after Qin Lang circulated it for a few days, the Inner Qi that was scattered in his meridians gathered together and gathered into a powerful Inner Qi.
This was equivalent to twenty years of practice for others!
Hence, the more vigorous a warrior's accumulation, the more powerful the eruption of power after breaking through realms. On the contrary, warriors who forcefully increased their realms, although they had reached a new realm, their progress in the future would be slow, and it might even be difficult for them to improve.
However, Qin Lang did not have the slightest bit of complacency, because twenty years of practice was not the peak of the Regulated Breathing realm. To reach the peak of the Regulated Breathing realm, one would need at least sixty years of practice. Sixty years was a cycle of sixty years, a cycle of reincarnation, and represented perfection. After the Regulated Breathing realm had sixty years of practice, the next step would be to break through the "Hidden Latch of Life and Death", and step into the Mystic Enlightenment realm.
Wu Caiyun's cultivation had already stepped into the Mystic Enlightenment realm.
Of course, Qin Lang knew that Wu Caiyun definitely did not rely on hard work to improve to this stage. She must have received help from Marquis Wuming, or perhaps obtained elixirs from the Dragon Snake troop.
Qin Lang knew that some elixirs could directly increase one's practice, such as some elixirs from Taoism. Even for Poisons, there were some special elixirs that could directly increase one's practice. However, it was not easy to refine these elixirs, so it was impossible for any sect to have too many elixirs and elixirs like that.
Qin Lang was already satisfied with twenty years of practice. Although he felt that his Inner Qi could be strengthened further, it was obvious that he did not need to continue improving in this place, because he had already achieved his goal for coming here.
Stepping into the Regulated Breathing realm was Qin Lang's goal.
Now that his goal had been achieved, Qin Lang did not force it.
Although Qin Lang could not wait to directly open up the Conception and Governing Vessels and raise his realm to the Mystic Enlightenment realm, he knew that going too far was as bad as not going far enough. The path of martial arts was endless. If he forced himself and squeezed out his potential from the start, he might not be able to walk further than others on this path.
Only by taking one step at a time and building a solid foundation, could he continue on the path of martial arts.
Seeing that Qin Lang had suddenly stopped practicing, Wu Caiyun was slightly surprised. She had originally thought that Qin Lang would continue to increase his practice here.
Seeing that Wu Caiyun was staring at him, Qin Lang could not help but laugh, "Young Mistress Wu, why are you staring at me? Is there a flower growing on my face?"
"Tsk!" Wu Caiyun snorted, "I'm afraid that if you advance by leaps and bounds, you will go berserk."
"Don't worry, I won't go berserk, because I have already become one with the Buddha and the Demon," Qin Lang said with a straight face.
"Buddha and the Demon as one? With your current realm, you dare to say that you have become one with the Buddha and the Demon? Will you die if you don't brag?" Wu Caiyun snorted, obviously not believing Qin Lang's words.
"These days … why doesn't anyone listen to the truth?" Qin Lang shook his head, then said to Huang Chong, "Big Brother Huang, I'm sorry, this Qu Bu Duoji doesn't seem to be the person who injured you."
"I knew it long ago." Huang Chong said, "I've said it before, as long as I see that old llama, even if he turns into ashes, I will still recognize him. However, this Qu Bu Duoji is definitely not him. I knew it the moment I saw him."
"Qin Lang, does that mean that the reason why we came to the Black Ear Temple is to help you raise your cultivation?" At this moment, Wu Caiyun finally understood Qin Lang's intentions. This caused her to feel a little indescribable anger, because this mission was no small matter, but Qin Lang actually treated it as a child's play, and only cared about his own interests.
