Third Level of Gang Qi
After killing Su Yuexi, Yang Hongwu was completely drained of energy. He slumped to the ground. This attack had consumed a lot of his zhenqi and mental strength.
"This is a good opportunity to cultivate. Don't miss it. Directly enter the blood of the dragon ape." Hua Qianxue's voice rang in Yang Hongwu's ears.
Yang Hongwu clenched his teeth. Step by step, he walked towards the One-eyed Dragon Ape's blood and sat down cross-legged. Although he was exhausted, he still persisted.
Activating his cultivation method, the blood seemed to have met a sponge and immediately entered Yang Hongwu's body.
The blood of the Dragon Ape contained a huge amount of energy. It was a Level 5 savage beast and was much stronger than the Earth-Armored Rock Dragon.
The energy in his blood was absorbed bit by bit, entering his meridians. The small meridians were destroyed by the domineering energy. They were broken bit by bit, but they were constantly repaired.
One cycle, two cycles.
After 49 cycles, the dragon ape's blood was completely absorbed. His damaged meridians were repaired. At this moment, Yang Hongwu's meridians were even wider than before.
The Genuine Qi in his body had already reached the limit of the second level of the Gang Qi Realm.
Yang Hongwu controlled his Genuine Qi to break through to the third level of the Gang Qi Realm.
Once, twice, thrice.
After three consecutive attempts, he finally broke through the bottleneck of the second level of the Aura Realm and entered the third level of the Aura Realm.
With the breakthrough in his cultivation, he had fully recovered from his internal injuries. His mental power had also improved tremendously.
Opening his eyes, Yang Hongwu stood up. The bones in his body collided with one another, causing crackling noises that sounded like firecrackers being set off. His entire body was filled with power, and he felt like he could collapse the entire canyon with a single punch.
"The energy contained in the Dragon Ape's blood was only enough for me to break through to the third level of the Aura Realm." Yang Hongwu took a deep breath. Every time he made a breakthrough, the amount of energy he needed was simply too great. He had no idea how much energy he needed to break through to the pinnacle of the Aura Realm and then the True Spirit Realm.
"That's already pretty good," Hua Qianxue said. "After all, the Dragon Ape is not a real dragon. Although it has the blood of a dragon, it is still too thin."
"You're right." Yang Hongwu nodded. One should not be too greedy. His cultivation speed was much faster than others.
"Pack your things and leave this place." Hua Qianxue said, "The Dragon Ape is dead, and the smell of blood has already spread. If we don't leave now, I'm afraid we won't be able to."
The flesh of a Level 5 savage beast had a fatal attraction to other savage beasts. He had no idea how many savage beasts would gather here. Now, he had to leave immediately.
After digging out the core of the One-eyed Dragon Ape and retrieving Su Yuexi's storage ring, Yang Hongwu began climbing towards the peak of the mountain. His speed was very fast, and he was as agile as a monkey. Within a dozen breaths, he had reached the top.
Yang Hongwu didn't stop until he was more than ten miles away from the canyon.
"Let's see what I got." Su Yuexi threw her long sword into the storage ring and checked the other things in the ring.
Su Yuexi was a disciple of a reclusive family and the number one genius of the Su Family. The Su Family should be much stronger than the Chen Family. Moreover, for Su Yuexi to have such a cultivation at such a young age, she should have had some fortuitous encounters. Yang Hongwu was looking forward to her collection.
He opened the ring and his mind entered the space of the ring.
The space of the ring was very big. Although it was not as big as the one he got in the Mysterious Yin Cave, it was much bigger than the storage ring of Chen Yuanba and his brother.
The gold, silver, jewels, necklaces, and so on were piled up like a mountain.
"Wow, what a nouveau riche." These gold and jewels, when added together, were probably more than the wealth of the entire Flower Moon Mansion, and not much less than the Heaven's Pride Mansion.
This wealth could solve Yang Hongwu's urgent problem. One should know that he needed a large amount of resources to break through, and this would be enough to support him for a while.
Other than gold and jewels, there were also some elixirs and spiritual stones.
"Three-Origin Purple Qi Elixirs, wow, there are ten of them." Yang Hongwu was overjoyed. Three-Origin Purple Qi Elixirs were the best of the Tier 4 elixirs. They were even comparable to Tier 5 elixirs. Three-Origin Purple Qi Elixirs could refine Genuine Qi, and were of great help to True Spirit Realm martial artists.
The value of these ten Three-Origin Purple Qi Elixirs was far more than the sum of all the gold and jewels.
"What a nouveau riche, I've made a fortune this time." Yang Hongwu took a deep breath. Suppressing his excitement, he continued to examine the pills. In addition to the Tri-Essences Violet Qi Pills, there were also tier-2 and tier-3 medicinal pills, all of which were used to heal injuries or restore true energy. There were also a dozen or so paper talismans.
Talismans were rarer than elixirs. The status of a talisman master was no less than that of an alchemist. Talisman masters were rarer than alchemists, and it was harder to become a talisman master than an alchemist. In the entire Golden Dragon Dynasty, there was only one talisman master, and more than one alchemist.
There were talismans in Su Yuexi's storage ring. Although there was only one Tier 3 talisman, and the rest were Tier 2 talismans, it was still very amazing.
One should know that the use of talismans did not depend on one's cultivation level. Even an ordinary martial artist could use them without consuming too much Genuine Qi.
A talisman master was very terrifying. Even a Tier 2 talisman master could kill a martial artist in the Gang Qi Realm. Think about it, if a talisman master threw out countless talismans, he could smash you to death.
"I've gained a lot." Yang Hongwu received the talismans with satisfaction. The Three-Origin Purple Qi Pill could only be used after he had broken through to the Gang Qi Realm. However, these talismans were extremely useful. They could even save his life at a critical moment.
"The harvest is indeed not small. However, you can't be careless. Don't forget that you still have two formidable opponents. One is Huyan Yong, and the other is your brother Yang Hongtian. Huyan Yong is a disciple of the Huyan Clan. This time, the Huyan Clan has not sent only Huyan Yong, but also four other martial artists in the Gang Qi Realm. These four people's auras are interlinked. I reckon that they have practiced a joint attack technique. The strength of four martial artists in the Gang Qi Realm using a joint attack technique isn't as simple as one plus one," Hua Qianxue explained. "With Huyan Yong's strength, you won't be a match for them. Even if you open the Nine Dragons Saint Body, you may not be a match for them."
"Don't worry about the joint attack technique. I won't give them a chance." When Yang Hongwu heard about the joint attack technique, he naturally knew how powerful it was. Even a profound level joint attack martial technique was very difficult to deal with. If it was an earth level martial technique, then perhaps he wouldn't even have the power to fight back.
Therefore, if he wanted to deal with them, he would need to not give them a chance. He would need to kill one of them at lightning speed. Then, the joint attack technique would collapse.
"Unless you can kill them in one blow. Moreover, you have to kill them before they can react. However, they are also martial artists in the Gang Qi Realm. If you want to kill them in one blow, it won't be easy. Besides them, you should be most concerned about Yang Hongtian." Hua Qianxue said, "When you broke through to the third level of the Gang Qi Realm, I faintly felt a strong spiritual power fluctuation. Someone must have broken through to the True Spirit Realm. The aura is very similar to Yang Hongtian's."
Hearing this, Yang Hongwu swallowed his saliva. His brother Yang Hongtian had broken through to the True Spirit Realm. This … this was troublesome.
The Gang Qi Realm was still manageable. He could even deal with a martial artist at the peak of the tenth level of the Gang Qi Realm. However, the True Spirit Realm was troublesome.
