It's terrible that my ranking has dropped to fifth. The competition is too fierce.)
The setting sun shone, and the sky gradually darkened.
The setting sun was like flowing fire, sprinkling on the endless sea of clouds, like flowing flames. It was magnificent.
The tumbling sea of clouds seemed to be tired and wanted to rest. It gradually calmed down.
Night was about to fall, symbolizing that the day was about to pass.
Lying on the bed in the wooden house, Chen Zong tossed and turned, but he couldn't fall asleep. He couldn't even calm down.
After going through difficulties when he was young, he obtained the mysterious sword tip. His meridians and marrow were cleansed, and his potential was gradually developed. His talent became better and better, and his path of cultivation had always been smooth. Today, he had experienced many things, but it wasn't difficult for him to resolve them with his own ability.
This time, he had encountered a real setback.
For a moment, Chen Zong was a little dazed.
Breaking through the zenith was the true completion of the Qi Refining Realm. Chen Zong didn't aspire to be able to do it.
However, the greater the desire, the greater the disappointment. Fortunately, Chen Zong's willpower had been constantly tempered along the way, and he was able to withstand the blow of disappointment. However, it was inevitable that he would be upset.
Unable to sleep, he simply got up and walked out of the house. The setting sun shone, and a touch of afterglow fell on Chen Zong's eyes.
Stepping forward, he walked to the edge of the cliff that protruded like an eagle's beak. Chen Zong casually sat down in a position that made him feel comfortable. He just stared at the setting sun that was emitting the last afterglow, and the endless sea of clouds that was gradually calming down, perhaps because it was tired.
Gradually, the upset in his heart dissipated. Chen Zong didn't care, but he felt more and more relaxed.
The scenery in front of him was so magnificent that it made him forget to go back and forget himself.
When the last afterglow went down the mountain and disappeared into the world, the sea of clouds seemed to gradually fall asleep. Chen Zong's eyelids also slowly closed, and his breathing became longer and more subtle.
Yuan Lingzi stood not far from Chen Zong and watched. When he found that Chen Zong had fallen asleep, he couldn't help but smile.
It could be seen that after failing to break through the zenith three times in a row, Chen Zong's mood was a little unstable and irritable. However, this kind of thing was best for him to figure it out and get through it, because it was also a kind of tempering, a kind of spiritual cultivation.
Yuan Lingzi didn't know how long it would take Chen Zong to figure it out and get rid of this negative influence.
Now it seemed that he got.
Was very short.
"With such talent and temperament, even if he cannot truly reach the peak of the Qi Training realm, his future will be extraordinary," Yuan Lingzi thought.
The sky gradually darkened. It was as if a huge black curtain had spread out from the distant horizon and swept over, covering the entire sky. The mountains, rivers, and sea of clouds were plunged into an even deeper darkness.
..............................................................................
Tonight, there was no moon and no stars. It was difficult to distinguish one's five fingers.
Chen Zong fell asleep. He slept deeply, forgetting all his worries and throwing away all distracting thoughts.
The huge black curtain rolled up again, and a touch of white appeared on the eastern horizon. Immediately, the first ray of golden light shone out.
A new day had arrived.
When the ray of light passed through the sea of clouds and dispelled the last trace of darkness, the sea of clouds woke up and slowly rippled as if it was stretching its limbs.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
It slowly became more intense.
When the ray of golden light shone on Chen Zong's jade-like round face, Chen Zong's eyes opened. They were crystal clear, as deep as an abyss, and extremely calm.
Facing the morning sun and looking at the sea of clouds, he took a deep breath full of Spirit Energy. His strength surged, and his sleeping body woke up. Powerful strength filled his body.
He leaped, facing the sea of clouds, and his sword broke through the clouds like a ray of light.
He practiced the essence of the sword technique again and again, feeling carefree. Sheathing his sword, Chen Zong exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi. The turbid Qi shot out like an arrow, piercing through the air and leaving an invisible trail.
"It seems that you have adjusted." Yuan Lingzi's voice came from behind.
"Disciple Chen Zong greets Senior Yuan." Chen Zong turned around and bowed.
"No need to be so courteous." Yuan Lingzi chuckled. The wind blew, and his hair and robe danced, as if they were drifting away with the wind.
"The first three Crown Protection Pills are usually the most effective. After that, the effect will be weakened." Yuan Lingzi said. Chen Zong knew this and understood the meaning of Yuan Lingzi's words. If the first three Crown Protection Pills failed, the effect of the subsequent ones would be even worse, and it would be even more difficult to succeed.
If he had heard this last night, Chen Zong would have been even more disappointed, and his emotions would have been even more chaotic. But now, it was only a slight ripple, and he quickly calmed down. Yuan Lingzi had been paying attention to Chen Zong's eyes, and couldn't help but secretly nod.
"But it doesn't matter. Even if you don't break through the zenith and truly reach the great completion of the Qi Refining Realm, with your talent and temperament, you can achieve extraordinary things in the future." Yuan Lingzi smiled. "A true expert never relies on one advantage, but on a combination of all aspects."
"Disciple understands." Chen Zong bowed. He wasn't being perfunctory, but truly understood. However, if there was a chance, Chen Zong still wanted to break through the zenith.
"Since you understand, then memorize this Secret Art. Study it well and prepare to break through to the True Martial Realm," Yuan Lingzi said and handed Chen Zong an egg-sized, flat, and round cyan jade.
Chen Zong already knew that this thing was called a jade book. It was something used to record information. For low-level cultivators, this was a rare treasure.
The surface of this jade book was as smooth as a mirror, and there were no words. How did it record information?
In fact, this was the method of Transcendents. They stored information in a jade book, and it couldn't be seen from the outside.
Without Yuan Lingzi's guidance, Chen Zong wouldn't have recognized this jade book even if it was placed in front of him.
Reading the information in the jade book required a method. Ordinary cultivators couldn't master it, so even if they knew the value of the jade book, they couldn't do anything about it. However, Yuan Lingzi had taught Chen Zong how to use his Spiritual Energy to communicate with the jade book and read the information in the jade book.
Chen Zong's Spiritual Energy was indeed stronger than cultivators of the same cultivation level. It was even comparable to some True Martial Realm cultivators. However, he couldn't release his Spiritual Energy. To read the information in the jade book, he had to stick the jade book between his eyebrows.
This was also the first time Chen Zong tried to read the jade book. However, his Spiritual Energy penetrated the jade book in an instant.
Paragraphs of information suddenly poured into Chen Zong's mind from the jade book. Fortunately, Chen Zong's Spiritual Energy was stronger than most people's. This kind of information didn't bring him any bad feelings.
Not long after, the information contained in the jade book was transmitted, and the cyan light on the jade book disappeared.
"Zongjian Condensing True Qi Art."
This Secret Art didn't have any grades, but it was a Secret Art for condensing True Qi.
The reason why it was difficult for ordinary cultivators to break through to the True Martial Realm was that they were limited by talent.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
It was because they lacked a suitable Secret Art.
The True Condensation Art was a general term. It was easy to understand from its name. It was to condense True Qi in preparation for officially breaking through to the True Martial Realm.
When the first wisp of True Qi was condensed, one could officially break through their cultivation and reach the True Martial Realm.
Different forces often had different cultivation methods of the True Condensation Art. There were also differences in efficiency.
As a low-rank Sect and a middle-rank Sect before, the Zonghu Sword Sect's True Condensation Art was above average in the entire True Condensation Art.
It could be said that as long as a disciple of the Zonghu Sword Master reached the peak of the Energy Training Realm and then cultivated the True Condensation Art, the probability of breaking through to the True Martial Realm was at least seventy to eighty percent.
However, ordinary outer sect disciples weren't qualified to be taught the True Condensation Art. They could only cultivate the inferior True Condensation Art. The probability of breaking through to the True Martial Realm was about forty to fifty percent.
The probability wasn't low. The difference was time. Some people would spend less time to break through, while others would spend more time to break through.
After receiving the True Condensation Art, Chen Zong was about to start breaking through to the True Martial Realm. However, before that, he needed to comprehend the True Condensation Art and fully understand its mysteries.
With Chen Zong's comprehension and accumulation, it took him less than half a day to fully comprehend the mysteries of the True Condensation Art. Naturally, the next step was to cultivate.
However, Chen Zong hesitated again.
He believed that if he cultivated the True Condensation Art and condensed his inner strength into False True Qi, and then condensed it into True Qi, it wouldn't be difficult to truly break through to the True Martial Realm. However, in that case, he really wouldn't be able to complete the Energy Training Realm.
Thinking it through didn't mean that Chen Zong would give up.
Chen Zong wouldn't be satisfied if he didn't try again.
"How is it? Have you comprehended the True Condensation Art?" Yuan Lingzi asked.
"Elder, I have comprehended the True Condensation Art," Chen Zong said.
"Good." Hearing this, Yuan Lingzi's eyes flashed and he couldn't help but praise. Comprehending and comprehending were two different concepts.
The True Condensation Art wasn't a simple art. If Yan Hua, Xiao Jinpeng, and the others were to comprehend it, they wouldn't be able to comprehend it without a few days. However, Chen Zong only took half a day to comprehend it. This level of comprehension was indeed extraordinary.
"Since you have comprehended it, then start cultivating. After condensing the False True Qi, your combat strength can reach the Seven Star Realm. At that time, you can condense the False True Qi into True Qi and break through to the True Martial Realm with the Seven Star Realm's combat strength," Yuan Lingzi said happily.
"Elder, I still want to try to break through to the Heaven's Peak," Chen Zong said his thoughts.
"Break through to the Heaven's Peak!" Yuan Lingzi was startled when he heard this. He looked deeply at Chen Zong and said, "Do you know that in the world of martial artists, one step ahead is another step ahead?"
"I know," Chen Zong said, "but I still want to try again."
"If you want to try, then let's make an agreement. One month. If you still can't break through to the Heaven's Peak after one month, you will cultivate the True Condensation Art and break through to the True Martial Realm," Yuan Lingzi said seriously.
"One month …" Chen Zong thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
The last month.
The last gamble. If he could succeed, his path would be wider. Although strength didn't rely on one advantage, it was naturally better to have this advantage.
If he couldn't succeed, then he would completely give up and concentrate on cultivating the True Condensation Art. He would strive to break through to the True Martial Realm as soon as possible.
The True Martial Realm was the true starting point for martial artists, and also the starting point for geniuses to compete.
