The second step of the breakthrough was to reach the state of 'unburdened mind' and stop thinking about random things.
Zhao Kuo, the cultivation maniac, had clearly told Zhao Yanzi the key points of breaking through to the next realm.
That was why Zhao Yanzi asked Hao Ren, whom she trusted the most, to guard her entrance.
Hao Ren quietly moved a stone chair to the side of Zhao Yanzi's bed, blocking her entrance.
During this period of cultivation, no mistakes could be made. That was why the cultivators in the cultivation sects would lock themselves in secret chambers and cultivate in seclusion when seeking breakthroughs.
Since cultivators usually had a lot of enemies, it was a tradition to ask a high-level cultivator they trusted to guard them.
At this moment, Hao Ren sat cross-legged on the stone chair and watched Zhao Yanzi who was concentrating on her cultivation. He tried to calm himself down.
Zhao Yanzi's head was covered by the quilt, and white steam came out of her head.
It was a sign that nature essence was gathering in her meridians.
As long as Hao Ren stood up and peeked under the quilt, he would be able to see Zhao Yanzi's bare shoulders.
After a year of cultivation and growth, Zhao Yanzi seemed to be more beautiful than when Hao Ren first met her. Her body was also a little longer.
"I'm sure there are more guys who like her in middle school."
Hao Ren looked at her and thought sourly.
Zhao Yanzi had to close her eyes to cultivate and concentrate all her spirit to condense the golden core. However, Hao Ren couldn't do the same. Instead, he had to keep a close eye on Zhao Yanzi's condition and be prepared for the worst-case scenario of Qi Deviation.
Staring at Zhao Yanzi, he couldn't help but let his thoughts run wild.
Her delicate little face, her trying to stay calm, her slightly twitching nose, her puffed lips, and her furrowed brows …
Zhao Yanzi was at her most lively and adorable, and she was no longer a kid.
A layer of white smoke gradually rose from the delicate skin on her shoulder. Her small collarbone was like a natural belt on her pajamas; it was very delicate.
Her black hair fell from her ears to her shoulders, and a few strands of hair ran to the front of her body, forming a sharp contrast with her white skin.
Hu …
Hao Ren secretly exhaled and continued to cultivate the Spirit Concentration Scroll that he had neglected for a long time. He tried his best to reduce the distracting thoughts to the lowest level.
If he had distracting thoughts, it meant that Zhao Yanzi had distracting thoughts as well. Hao Ren was worried that she would make mistakes. After all, she was not reliable in cultivation and studies.
"Um …" Zhao Yanzi suddenly bit her lip, and the eyelashes on her closed eyes trembled slightly.
Her state of mind was slightly affected, and her cultivation had also reached a bottleneck.
"I'm here, don't worry," Hao Ren said hurriedly.
Zhao Yanzi nodded lightly. Her eyes seemed to be glued shut, and she didn't dare to open them.
She was using her Reiki to look inside her body. When she opened her eyes, distracting thoughts would disturb her cultivation. Hearing Hao Ren was here, she calmed down a little.
As for whether Hao Ren would take the opportunity to peek at her, it was no longer her concern. She would marry Hao Ren sooner or later.
The white smoke grew thicker and thicker in the small cylinder that was surrounded by the quilt. It looked like a small chimney.
A few beads of sweat appeared on Zhao Yanzi's forehead, which meant that her cultivation had reached a higher level.
A few strands of hair near her forehead were wet with the sweat, and the sweat flowed to the tip of her nose.
Hao Ren shot out a thin sword energy and knocked away the sweat at the end of her hair.
At a critical moment in cultivation, even a drop of sweat could disturb the mind and cause unimaginable consequences.
Zhao Yanzi bit her lips so hard that a layer of red marks appeared on her shoulders, and her shoulders kept shaking.
The moment of breakthrough depended on the stability of the cultivator's foundation. Zhao Yanzi was extremely talented, but she spent far less time on cultivation than Hao Ren or Xie Yujia.
With some elixir pills, she easily reached top-tier Foundation Establishment Realm. However, breaking through to higher realms mainly depended on her own willpower.
Hao Ren looked at her nervously and silently felt that time was ticking away.
Sweat seeped out of Zhao Yanzi's skin, from her forehead to her neck to her shoulders, and then to her entire body.
Going from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Core Formation Realm seemed to be a natural cultivation realm, but it was not easy to condense the nature essence in one's body into a core!
Since the dragon cultivators were born with dragon cores, they didn't have to condense a golden core, and it was natural for them to advance from Kan-level to Zhen-level. However, the cultivation method of human cultivators was to condense the nature essence into a golden core by force and form an internal core!
If it were easy to achieve, cultivation wouldn't be a heaven-defying move!
Zhao Yanzi's shoulders were all wet, and the area below her shoulders was also covered in sweat. She felt like she was sitting in a steamer or a volcano, and all the heat in her body was evaporating.
Hao Ren saw that she was covered in sweat, but he didn't dare to wipe it off. At this moment, any vibration would scare her.
The only thing Hao Ren could do was to stay by her side and not let anything disturb her.
If she accidentally entered the state of Qi Deviation, Hao Ren would quickly take action and control the messy nature essence in her body!
Seeing that Zhao Yanzi was about to enter the most important process of condensing the core, Hao Ren was very nervous. He was even more nervous than when he was breaking through in his cultivation. He had abandoned all the random thoughts!
It had been four hours …
Hao Ren quietly calculated the time.
Even if she didn't cultivate, four hours of sitting was still a very long time.
Unlike the Nascent Soul Realm which took three to four days to break through to the Core Formation Realm, it only took about half a day to break through to the Core Formation Realm. However, ordinary cultivators would be more prepared in the early stages.
Hao Ren looked at Zhao Yanzi and saw that her brows had relaxed, and she had truly entered the state of Qi Deviation. If there were any signs of uneasiness on her face, it would be a sign of Qi Deviation.
"This girl … is usually frivolous, but she won't drop the ball at the critical moment. Just like taking an exam, if you really put your heart into it, you will always get a good score.
Hao Ren thought to himself as he comforted himself.
Fifth Heaven didn't have the hustle and bustle of the modern society, and the nature essence was denser than First Heaven. It was a wise choice for Zhao Yanzi to break through in Ethereal Summit.
Looking at her calm face, Hao Ren wondered if the things that made her unhappy still existed in her heart and would affect her breakthrough.
However, if Zhao Yanzi was really sentimental, she would feel happy after seeing what happened to Duan Yao and forget about those grudges, which would be good for her cultivation breakthrough.
Duan Yao returning to Sky Mountain Sect to make a decision was probably to plan for her future breakthrough. As time went by, the earlier she ended it, the smaller her demonic barrier would be.
When she was breaking through, she would still think about all the things that happened in Sky Mountain Sect. However, since she had already made a decision, the impact would be smaller.
"She is always alone because she is afraid that the thoughts in her heart will affect her cultivation …" Hao Ren thought.
Hao Ren's thoughts started to unfold, and he suddenly remembered how he would feel on the day of his breakthrough …
"Sword!" Zhao Yanzi suddenly reached out her hand from under the quilt.
Her slim and white arm reached out from under the quilt, but her eyes were still tightly closed.
Hao Ren flicked the Purple Green Treasure Sword from the bedside with his fingertip and let it slide into Zhao Yanzi's hand.
All of Zhao Yanzi's nature essence suddenly rotated and poured into the Purple Green Treasure Sword, which was an ultimate dharma treasure.
The Purple Green Treasure Sword made a crisp sound, and the surface of the sword was surrounded by a layer of visible flowing nature essence. The sharp blade suddenly became faintly discernible.
Zhao Yanzi wanted to refine the Purple Green Treasure Sword!
Hao Ren suddenly understood Zhao Yanzi's intention and was shocked.
However, he didn't dare to stop her. Otherwise, she would immediately go crazy!
High-level cultivators usually had their own natal dharma treasures, and cultivators who reached the Core Formation Realm could have their own natal dharma treasures.
However, low-tier Core Formation Realm cultivators usually wouldn't refine their natal dharma treasures. For one thing, their realms were too low, and they might not be able to succeed. For another, low-tier Core Formation Realm cultivators usually couldn't find good dharma treasures, and the natal dharma treasures would follow them for the rest of their lives.
It was a bold move for Zhao Yanzi to refine the Purple Green Treasure Sword while she was breaking through! She was probably stimulated by Duan Yao and Xie Yujia, and she was trying her best to improve her strength!
She had a pure water body type, and she could control such a top-tier sword. She might have a chance to make it her natal dharma treasure while she was breaking through a big realm, but it was still risky!
Hum … Hum …
The blade of the Purple Green Treasure Sword flickered. It wasn't a supreme spiritual treasure and didn't have its own spirituality. However, the cultivator had to have great strength to refine it into a natal dharma treasure!
Zhao Yanzi's expression was calm, and she still didn't show any signs of going crazy. Hao Ren looked at her anxiously, and he was so nervous that sweat began to appear on his forehead.
If it took twice as long to break through to the Core Formation Realm, then it would take twice as long to refine a natal dharma treasure!
The process of breaking through to the Core Formation Realm was extremely dangerous, and Zhao Yanzi was a bit impatient to get it done in one go!
The nature essence circulated in Zhao Yanzi's body and then around the sword. It was a dangerous move to release the nature essence outside of the body, not to mention that she was on the verge of breaking through!
"This damn girl is always a bit greedy when doing questions, and I didn't expect it to be the same when it comes to cultivation." If she did the questions wrong, she could try again. However, if she failed to break through, her life would be in danger!
Hao Ren began to regret letting her cultivate again. With Zhao Yanzi's personality, she should have been a girl who didn't have to worry about food and clothing. Zhao Hongyu probably saw through her future!
Ding! The Purple Green Treasure Sword made a crisp sound.
Zhao Yanzi raised the Purple Green Treasure Sword and stabbed it into the top of her head.
The Purple Green Treasure Sword looked like a phantom, but it also looked like a stream of energy flowing into her Baihui Acupoint.
Hao Ren held his breath, and his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
At this moment, if Zhao Yanzi made the slightest mistake and lost control, the Purple Green Treasure Sword would turn back into a sharp sword and cut open her head!
Hao Ren's realm was much higher than hers, but he could only watch and couldn't do anything in this situation!
In Zhao Yanzi's pale face, the green sword shadow could almost be seen. The tip of the sword entered her neck and then into her shoulders.
Hao Ren secretly gasped and didn't even dare to swallow his saliva, afraid that the slightest sound would cause Zhao Yanzi to fail!
The Purple Green Treasure Sword sank bit by bit until it was below Hao Ren's shoulder where he couldn't see.
"Zhao Yanzi is too bold …" Hao Ren secretly exhaled.
When breaking through to a big realm, it was indeed suitable to merge one's nature essence with the dharma treasure to form a natal dharma treasure. However, if it failed, it would be a double failure, and the probability of death was very high!
When one's realm reached a certain level, it would be difficult to refine a natal dharma treasure, but if it failed, it wouldn't cause much damage to the body.
Seeing that the Purple Green Treasure Sword had safely entered Zhao Yanzi's body, Hao Ren looked at his palms and found that they were covered in sweat.
Ever since he started cultivating, he hadn't sweated due to nervousness for a long time. Even when he was fighting with Taiyi Cave Master, he had never been this nervous and scared!
Zhao Yanzi exhaled deeply and suddenly opened her eyes.
Three spots on her forehead, chest, and lower abdomen lit up at the same time. The golden core was formed, and the three acupoints were unlocked!
Ding …
The Purple Green Treasure Sword in Zhao Yanzi's body resonated with it.
Hao Ren exhaled deeply and put his hand on his chest, feeling like his whole body was about to collapse. "Daunting but not dangerous. Daunting but not dangerous …"
Zhao Yanzi was lying on the bed softly, and she looked even more exhausted. She didn't have the slightest intention of breaking through to the next realm. She was full of energy, so she rushed out of her cave abode, and she seemed to be drained of energy.
Hao Ren patted his forehead. Then, he moved closer and touched her forehead.
Zhao Yanzi opened her eyes wide and looked at Hao Ren happily and gratifyingly. Her round shoulders were wet with sweat, and they were full of temptation.
Hao Ren lowered his head slightly and bit her soft jelly-like lips.
Zhao Yanzi lowered his head slightly and bit her soft jelly-like lips.
Zhao Yanzi's little nostrils puffed out hot air, and she thought, "I want him to get me a glass of water. How can he do this …"
However, when Hao Ren kissed her, her heart was racing. She shyly hid under the blanket and bit Hao Ren's tongue happily.
Hao Ren pressed half of his body on the stone bed, and his right hand that was on her waist slowly slid down to her soft belly.
Zhao Yanzi's body suddenly tensed up like a caught mudfish.
"Ugh?!"
Her eyes suddenly widened when she felt Hao Ren's hand under the wet blanket and touching her chest!
She really wasn't wearing any clothes this time!
Zhao Yanzi's shoulder shook, and her most sensitive spot was touched. Like a spring, her back was pressed against the stone wall behind her. Then, she hurriedly slapped Hao Ren's hand away with her smooth palm.
"You … pervert!" Zhao Yanzi glared at Hao Ren with a red face.
Hao Ren lowered his head with a smile and patted his head a few times. What else could he say?
Zhao Yanzi hurriedly pulled up the blanket and glanced at it. Then, she suddenly yelled, "Wow!" (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
