Jianchen let out a long breath and slowly calmed himself down. Then, he looked down at the magical core in his hand. Although he had only absorbed the energy for a short moment, he could clearly feel that the energy in the rank 1 magical core in his hand had been greatly reduced, and even the size of the magical core seemed to have shrunk.
This scene made Jianchen gasp. Although the energy in a rank 1 magical core was not particularly much, it would take at least three nights for Jianchen to completely absorb the energy in a rank 1 magical core before advancing to a Saint. Just now, he had only absorbed the energy in the magical core for a short breath, but he could clearly feel that the energy in the magical core had been greatly reduced. Jianchen really did not dare to imagine how much energy he had absorbed in that short period of time.
Then, Jianchen immediately checked his body again, but what surprised him was that after absorbing such a huge amount of energy, there was no reaction in his Dantian at all, and there were no signs of his energy increasing either. It was as if the scene just now was just an illusion that had never happened at all.
If it weren't for the fact that he could clearly feel that the energy in the rank 1 magical core in his hand had indeed been greatly reduced, Jianchen would have thought that the scene just now was just an illusion because everything was just too strange.
Jianchen frowned and thought hard, but no matter how he thought about it, he could not figure it out. In the end, Jianchen could only put this matter aside and continue to absorb the energy in the magical core to cultivate. However, after experiencing that scene just now, Jianchen was obviously much more cautious this time. He paid full attention to the condition of his body to prevent that unbelievable scene from happening again.
Unexpectedly, just as he began to absorb the energy in the magical core, the scene just now happened again. The magical core in Jianchen's hand was emitting a faint light, and the energy inside was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins. It surged into Jianchen's body at an unbelievable speed, and then was absorbed into his body through the meridians in his arm and the pores in his body.
Jianchen sat cross-legged on the bed, and his body trembled slightly like a stone sculpture. Now, he was finally sure that what had just happened was real, and not an illusion. Just when Jianchen was about to stop absorbing the energy in the magical core, he suddenly gave up on this idea, and then raised all his concentration to the peak, paying close attention to the situation in his body. He wanted to figure out what was going on, and why his speed of absorbing the energy in the magical core had suddenly increased to such a terrifying level. Moreover, when the energy entered his body, it immediately disappeared without a trace, and he did not know where it went.
The size of the magical core in Jianchen's hand was rapidly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the huge amount of energy released from the magical core crazily poured into Jianchen's body through the meridians in his arm and the pores in his body. Being impacted by such a huge amount of energy, Jianchen felt a burst of pain in the meridians in his arm and a small part of his skin.
It was different from absorbing the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth two days ago. The Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth was in a gentle state, so under such a fast absorption speed, Jianchen did not feel any discomfort. However, the magical core was different. The magical core was the essence of a magical beast's condensed energy, and whether it was the intensity or the purity of the energy, it was far from the most primitive Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth that could compare to it. Moreover, the energy in the magical core also contained a kind of wild element, so such a fast absorption of the energy in the magical core brought about some drawbacks to Jianchen's body.
Jianchen did not care about this little bit of pain, and concentrated on closely observing the situation in his body. He saw that most of the huge amount of energy he had absorbed from the magical core was flowing towards a certain place in his dantian, and only a very small part of the remaining energy was left for Jianchen to absorb.
However, when Jianchen found the place where the energy was going, his face suddenly became very interesting, because that place was actually the place where the two purple and green light spots suddenly appeared in his dantian two days ago, and the energy was actually all absorbed by these two light spots.
Jianchen slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the magical core in his hand with a slightly dignified expression. Then, he threw the magical core away, closed his eyes again, and continued to absorb the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth to continue his cultivation.
The Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth continuously gathered towards Jianchen, and the speed of gathering was actually more than ten times faster than when he usually absorbed the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth. However, now, among the Yuan Qi that Jianchen absorbed, 99% was actually absorbed by the two strange light spots in his dantian, and the Yuan Qi that he could absorb was only one percent of the total.
Inferring from this, Jianchen's current cultivation speed by absorbing the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth would be ten times slower than before.
After coming to this conclusion, Jianchen's face suddenly became ugly. His cultivation speed was only one-tenth of the usual, and this situation was definitely not what he wanted to see. What he did not expect was that the purple and green light spots in his dantian, which he did not know how they formed, would actually cause him so much trouble.
Then, Jianchen tried to absorb the energy in the magical core to cultivate, and then, the heavy expression on his face gradually relaxed. What made him feel very fortunate was that if he absorbed the energy in the magical core to cultivate, then not only would his cultivation speed not be slower than before, but it would also be three times faster than before. However, the only drawback was that the consumption of the magical core was too great, so much so that Jianchen's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Jianchen stopped cultivating, looked at the dark night sky outside the window, and sighed helplessly. If the two light spots in his dantian were to compete with him for energy every time he cultivated, then it would be very difficult for him to cultivate in the future. After all, by absorbing the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth, Jianchen's cultivation speed was only one-tenth of the usual, and although absorbing the energy in the magical core could increase his cultivation speed by another three times, the consumption of the magical core was so great that Jianchen could not bear it.
A Class 1 magical core was at least enough for Jianchen to cultivate for three nights in the past, but now, a Class 1 magical core could only last for less than the time to drink a cup of tea. Calculating from this, Jianchen would need to spend nearly fifty Class 1 magical cores to cultivate for a night. With such a large consumption, even if Jianchen was rich, it would be difficult to provide him with magical cores for cultivation.
(Baidu search: An hour is two hours, a quarter of an hour is fifteen minutes, the time to drink a cup of tea is ten minutes, and the time to burn an incense is five minutes. In the future, the smaller units of time will be calculated like this.)
Jianchen very quickly calmed down. With his wisdom, such a small setback would not be able to defeat him. "Sigh, I'll take it one step at a time. If I don't have magical cores, I'll just hunt magical beasts to obtain them. Moreover, who knows when it will be full and won't continue to compete with me for energy." With this thought in mind, Jianchen directly took out a large number of magical cores from his space belt and continued to cultivate.
The night quickly passed, and the next morning, Jian Chen ended his cultivation. When he counted the number of Monster Cores he had consumed last night, he couldn't help but gasp. In just a single night, he had actually used up fifty-six Monster Cores of the first step.
Jianchen's face revealed a trace of a bitter smile. Although he still had many magical cores in his space belt, at this rate, the magical cores in his hands would not be able to last for more than a few days. Once his magical cores were exhausted, he could only rely on absorbing the energy of heaven and earth to cultivate. Now, Jianchen only hoped that the two light spots in his dantian would reach a state of saturation soon, and not endlessly absorb energy like this.
"Looks like when will I have to go to the forest to hunt magical beasts to obtain magical cores again?" Jianchen muttered in a low voice.
After calming himself down, Jianchen directly left the dormitory, and then went to the small forest on the east side of the academy to explain some knowledge about techniques and battle experience to his older brother, Changyang Hu. When the sun had already risen high in the sky, Jianchen finished explaining to his older brother.
"Big brother, let's stop here for today. You will have to spend a little more effort on the utilization and transformation of power. As for battle experience, it will slowly increase as you fight, so you don't have to deliberately practice." Jianchen said to his older brother, Changyang Hu. These days, Jianchen would come here every morning to give his older brother some advice about martial arts.
Changyang Hu nodded and said, "I understand, fourth brother." Now, Changyang Hu did not find it strange at all how Jianchen knew these things. He did not know what kind of living environment Jianchen's environment in Changyang Prefecture, but in his opinion, his fourth brother was a true genius. Even if he received some special care in the family, it was only natural. Maybe these things were taught to him by the elders in the family. Moreover, he also knew that his fourth brother was especially fond of reading. When he was in the academy, he would run to the library all day long if he had nothing to do. Maybe he learned these things from the books in the family's library.
"Big brother, take your time to practice. I will leave first." After saying that, Jianchen walked into the depths of the small forest. On the other hand, Changyang Hu continued to train.
… …
In an indoor martial arts arena of the academy, two youths wearing the academy's uniform were engaged in an intense battle. Both of them were wielding huge swords. One of them was wielding a huge sword that was flashing with a fiery red radiance. Waves of hot aura was being emitted from the sword. This person was none other than Cheng Mingxiang who was known as a cultivation genius in Kargath Academy.
The huge sword in the hands of the young man who was practicing with Cheng Mingxiang was flashing with a blue light. He looked a little older than Cheng Mingxiang, but at this moment, his face was dignified and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
The two people were fighting very fiercely in the field, but people with discerning eyes could see that the young man with the blue sword was completely suppressed by the young man with the fiery red sword. He did not have the strength to fight back and could only blindly resist.
"Okay, young master, stop fighting. If you continue, I won't be able to hold on." The young man with the blue sword suddenly said.
Hearing this, Cheng Mingxiang suddenly stopped, and then the huge sword disappeared from his hand. He said with a faint smile: "Shala, now the time you can hold on is getting shorter and shorter. It seems that you should also work hard. The current you is much weaker than before."
Hearing this, the young man with the blue sword couldn't help but bitterly smile and said: "Young master, it's not that my strength has become weak, but your strength has grown too fast. I am no longer young master's opponent."
Hearing this, Cheng Mingxiang's face suddenly showed a trace of pride.
