Pill toxins accumulated in a cultivator's body were like this.
The more pill toxins accumulated, the more difficult it would be to open the apertures.
Lu Ye had been using the Innate Tree to burn pill toxins ever since he started cultivating. Although there was a period of time when the Innate Tree ran out of fuel, causing a large amount of pill toxins to accumulate, as he replenished the fuel of the Innate Tree, the accumulated pill toxins were also burned away.
His spiritual energy was purer than anyone else's, so he never felt too much resistance during the process of opening the apertures.
Of course, in terms of speed of opening the apertures, Giant Armor was fully deserving of the title. Giant Armor was able to rise from the seventh heaven to the cloud river. Just this point alone was unparalleled throughout history.
However, Giant Armor's situation was special. After all, no cultivator would have a yao core like his.
Rousing his spiritual energy, he charged towards the last unopened spiritual aperture.
This spiritual aperture was very close to the source aperture, almost right next to it. When a cultivator stepped onto the path of cultivation, the first spiritual aperture they opened was the source aperture. The last spiritual aperture of the Spirit Stream Realm was near the source aperture. This way, when they reached the cloud river realm, all of the spiritual apertures would be connected, forming a large cycle.
Spiritual energy continued to surge, attacking again and again until a certain moment, the thick barrier of the spiritual aperture was broken. Spiritual energy flowed in, filling the newly opened spiritual aperture.
The great circle of the Spirit Stream Realm!
At this time, the three hundred and sixty apertures were scattered throughout Lu Ye's limbs and bones. Therefore, if a cultivator accidentally lost an arm or a leg in battle, it would greatly affect their strength. This effect was not only caused by the loss of the limb, but also by the loss of the spiritual aperture, which had a greater impact.
Regrowing a severed limb was too far away for the cultivation world of the Nine Provinces. No one had ever heard of such a bizarre thing. However, it was possible to reconnect a severed limb. As long as the limb was intact, there was a chance to reconnect it.
That required extremely high medical skills!
In the Spirit Stream Realm, opening all three hundred and sixty apertures was the great circle of the Spirit Stream Realm. At this point, the cultivation of the Spirit Stream Realm had basically reached the end.
Generally speaking, only cultivators from third-rank sects and above had the qualifications to cultivate to the great circle of the Spirit Stream Realm.
This didn't mean that the sects above the third rank had any special cultivation methods. It was just that when they recruited disciples, the disciples with good aptitude would be taken in by the sects above the third rank. Only those who were rejected by the sects below the third rank would be recruited by the sects below the third rank.
For example, the last recruitment ceremony held by Third Saint Academy was the host. Many small and medium-sized sects were the organizers. The most outstanding disciples would be taken in by Third Saint Academy. The rest would be picked by the small and medium-sized sects.
After such rounds of selection, outstanding talents would always appear in the large sects, while the small sects could only accept those with poor aptitudes.
However, nothing was absolute. There were always some unpolished gems that were unknown to others when they were young. If those small and medium sects could pick up such talents, they would also have the opportunity to raise their own sects' ranks.
Any cultivator who reached the Grand Completion Stage would definitely be able to advance to the True Lake Stage. There was an 80-90% chance that they could even advance to the Divine Ocean Stage. The prerequisite was that they didn't die young!
The competition in the cultivation world of the Nine Prefectures was very cruel. If one was killed on the road to growth, then let alone advancing to the Divine Ocean Stage, it would be difficult to even reach the True Lake Stage …
During this period of time, Lu Ye had killed a lot of Nine Heavens cultivators, especially when he was trying to break through to the Spirit Stream List. In the first few days, almost all of the cultivators he encountered were killed.
With the last aperture opened, Lu Ye surged his spiritual energy and passed it through the sixty spirit apertures that were not in a system, making a small cycle.
Waves of energy swept out, and his body buzzed. Nine Heavens was formed!
In an instant, Lu Ye felt some changes in his body. Although the nine minor circulatory systems in his body were not related to each other, when the ninth minor circulatory system was formed, there seemed to be some resonance between them. The flow of spiritual energy in his body also became much faster. If one listened carefully, they could even faintly hear the sound of flowing water.
At this time, if Lu Ye wanted to advance to the Cloud River Stage, he could do so at any time. He only needed to connect all the spirit apertures into a large cycle. There was no difficulty.
But how could he advance to the Cloud River Stage at this time?
Not to mention that the baptism bestowed by Tian Ji had not reached its limit, he also had not properly settled the grudge between him and the cultivators of the Myriad Demons Ridge.
During this period of time, he had been cultivating in the Myriad Poisons Forest, and his heart was filled with resentment. Now that he had advanced to the Nine Heavens, how could he not vent it?
Moreover, he still had some things to do.
Conservatively speaking, he would stay in the Spirit Stream Stage for another one or two months.
After the Seven Heavens, he changed his cultivation technique to the Great Sun Colored Glass Art. This cultivation technique cost him more than five thousand and two hundred merit points. It was the most suitable cultivation technique for him in Tian Ji's treasury, and was the most expensive one.
The quality of a cultivation technique depended on the order in which the spirit apertures were connected. If the order in which the spirit apertures were connected was different, the cultivation path would naturally be different. If the cultivation path was different, the efficiency of the spiritual energy in the body would be different. As such, the benefits it could bring to a cultivator would be different …
The better the cultivation technique, the faster the spiritual energy would flow. Correspondingly, it could bring a cultivator greater benefits!
Compared to the worst cultivation techniques, the Great Sun Colored Glass Art's price was several times that of an ordinary Heaven Grade cultivation technique. However, the difference of several times could only bring about an increase of ten to twenty percent.
This was already a very high benefit. A cultivation technique that could increase one's strength by ten to twenty percent was extremely tempting to any cultivator.
Moreover, the Great Sun Colored Glass Art also had the effect of tempering the body. This kind of tempering didn't require Lu Ye to do much. He only needed to maintain the flow of spiritual energy in his body, and it would slowly strengthen his body.
Lu Ye didn't feel it. Perhaps his body was strong enough, so the strengthening wasn't obvious, or perhaps the strengthening was subtle.
However, this was a product of Tian Ji's treasury, so it couldn't be a lie.
Although he had advanced to the Nine Heavens, Lu Ye didn't plan on leaving immediately. The newly formed minor circulation wasn't too stable, so he needed to stabilize it for a few days. This was to prevent the minor circulation from suddenly stopping during a battle. That sudden drop in strength could lead to extremely bad consequences.
In the small courtyard, Lu Ye meticulously practiced his saber arts.
Hua Ci returned from cultivating outside and glanced at Lu Ye. "Nine Heavens? Congratulations. "
Lu Ye put away his saber and casually replied, "There's nothing to congratulate me about."
Hua Ci had advanced to the Nine Heavens more than half a month ago! Her cultivation speed was so fast that it was simply amazing.
"You're ready to leave?" Hua Ci asked. Although Lu Ye hadn't told her about his plans, she could feel that after his cultivation reached the Nine Heavens, Lu Ye couldn't continue to stay here.
"What do you plan to do in a few days?"
"Me? I don't have any plans. "
"You're already in the Nine Heavens. You're not going to attack the Spirit Stream List, nor are you going to advance to the Cloud River Realm. What do you want to do? Moreover, you're already in the Nine Heavens. How are you going to cultivate? "
This was the thing that Lu Ye couldn't figure out the most. Logically speaking, after reaching the Nine Heavens, unless one advanced to the Cloud River Realm, there was no way to increase their cultivation. However, Hua Ci was still going out early and returning late every day.
Yiyi had gone to see her before and found that she was still devouring the poisonous fog in the Forest of a Thousand Poisons. She didn't know why she was doing so.
Moreover, Lu Ye didn't know if it was an illusion or not, but recently, he felt that the poisonous fog in the vicinity seemed to have thinned out a lot.
"I have my own ways." Hua Ci pursed her lips and smiled, but didn't elaborate. "I'm going to cook. What do you want to eat tonight?"
Lu Ye casually took out a large piece of beast meat from his storage bag and threw it to her.
Three days passed in a flash. Everything was ready and Lu Ye was ready to leave.
Hua Ci straightened his clothes for him and spoke in the tone of a kind mother sending her son off: "Be careful when you're outside."
The corner of Lu Ye's eyes couldn't help but twitch. It wasn't like he was going to run to the ends of the earth. Moreover, he had left the Forest of a Thousand Poisons several times in the past and Hua Ci hadn't warned him about anything.
"I don't have anything to give you. This is for you to protect yourself." As Hua Ci spoke, under Lu Ye's dumbstruck gaze, she opened her mouth and gently spat out a green, round, thumbnail-sized ball that floated out of her mouth.
The corner of Lu Ye's eyes twitched even more because when Hua Ci's breath blew on his face, not only did he smell the fragrance of orchids, but a large amount of gray fog also ignited on his Talent Tree …
This woman, even her breath now carries poison!
"What is this?" Lu Ye instinctively felt that this green ball wasn't anything good.
"A Thousand Poisons Pill?" Hua Ci smiled and took out a wooden box. She put the Thousand Poisons Pill inside and slapped it on Lu Ye's hand, "If you're surrounded by a lot of people and can't escape, use your spiritual power to throw this thing out."
"What effect does it have?"
Hua Ci tilted her head and thought for a moment: "I don't know. I've never used it before. Try it later and tell me the result."
"…"
Lu Ye carefully put the wooden box into his storage bag and placed it in the safest place.
"Let's go." Lu Ye called out to Hu Po, and the cat-like Hu Po jumped onto his shoulder. Then, Lu Ye summoned his own spirit boat and soared into the sky.
Standing in the same place, Hua Ci watched Lu Ye leave until the stream of light disappeared from her sight. Then, she turned around and walked towards the place where she usually cultivated.
As she moved forward, her cultivation, which was originally at the Ninth Heaven level, quickly fell. In just a short period of time, it fell to the Eighth Heaven level.
Condensing that Thousand Poisons Pill was obviously not without consumption for her. What was consumed was actually her own cultivation!
In the cultivation world of the Nine Provinces, there had never been such a bizarre cultivation method or secret technique.
Arriving at the place where she usually cultivated, she sat down cross-legged. In a breath, a large amount of thick poisonous fog gathered towards her. In a short moment, it condensed into a ball in front of her. That ball of thick poisonous fog rapidly rotated, and a strong suction force caused even more poisonous fog to gather. In a short moment, a vortex was formed in front of Hua Ci.
