Qi Refining Completion, the Old Doctor Breaks Through

Early in the morning, Lu Qing was sitting cross-legged in the bamboo grove behind the Lu Family's residence.

He was drawing in the spiritual energy of the surrounding world, absorbing it into his body.

Time flies, and another month has passed since Lu Qing returned from Western Province.

Throughout this month, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth continued to increase.

The spiritual energy in Nine Li Village, under the regulation and gathering of the array, is so concentrated that it is no less dense than what Lu Qing felt in Central Province.

Of course, so much time has passed, and the spiritual energy in Central Province must be much richer than when Lu Qing and the others left.

But in any case, the spiritual energy in Nine Li Village is now sufficient for his and his master's cultivation.

As Lu Qing cultivated, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surrounding him became increasingly abundant.

Later on, it even showed signs of condensing into a misty state.

Suddenly, Lu Qing's body trembled, and he absorbed all the dense spiritual energy around him.

Immediately afterwards, a sense of fulfillment emanated from him.

"Congratulations, young man, you have reached the Qi Refining Completion."

The figure of "Yan" materialized beside Lu Qing and congratulated him.

At the same time, he was amazed at how fast Lu Qing's cultivation speed was.

It hasn't been long since he last broke through to the Qi Refining Great Perfection, and now he has broken through again, reaching the Qi Refining Completion. He is only one step away from the Foundation Establishment Stage.

If not told, no one would believe that Lu Qing was actually cultivating the Five Elements Body Refining Art, a technique from the Ancient Cultivation Era known for its slow progress.

"The progress is still a bit slow," Lu Qing said, shaking his head.

"Inflammation":...

Lu Qing sensed Yan's silence and offered no further explanation.

He understood the meaning of "flame"; compared to ordinary cultivators, his cultivation speed was indeed extremely fast.

With his solid foundation and the blessing of his Lifebound Magical Treasure, the Five Elements Gourd, even the Five Elements Body Refining Art could not limit his cultivation speed.

But Lu Qing's goal was never to compare himself with cultivators of the same level.

More than a month has passed since the last time the Heaven and Earth Dao Sound was heard.

The evolution of the rules of heaven and earth has gradually reached a new limit.

Lu Qing estimated that it wouldn't be long before the fifth Heaven and Earth Dao Sound would resound.

Based on previous experiences, each time the Heaven and Earth Dao Sound resounds, the rules of Heaven and Earth become more perfect.

Those that can accommodate something will become increasingly powerful.

The current rules of heaven and earth allow cultivators to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm.

When the Heaven and Earth Dao Sound, it will likely evolve to the point where it can accommodate the birth of the Golden Core Realm expert.

Whoever breaks through first will greatly influence the global landscape.

Lu Qing didn't aspire to be the first to reach the Golden Core Realm; that was unrealistic.

But he must ensure that he has the confidence to face those at the Golden Core Realm stage.

This is clearly not something that Qi Refining Realm can achieve; he also needs a qualitative breakthrough.

"I hope this fifth Heaven and Earth Dao Sound can arrive a little later."

Lu Qing has now Qi Refining Realm the pinnacle of Qi Refining, and with his Supernatural Ability, he is almost free from any confusion regarding his cultivation level.

With a little more time to prepare, it wouldn't be difficult for him to enter the Foundation Establishment Stage.

He had a premonition that after this fifth Heaven and Earth Dao Sound, the world would undergo a major change.

Putting aside everything else, there will definitely be other actions happening on the other side of the Hanging Sky Mountain.

Therefore, he needs to have sufficient strength to cope with future changes.

"Um?"

Just as Lu Qing was pondering this in his heart, he suddenly sensed a fluctuation.

He looked towards the Half-Mountain Courtyard with surprise. "Master has broken through?"

A few days ago, my master said he was going into seclusion for a few days, but I didn't expect him to break through so quickly.

A gentle breeze stirred around Lu Qing, and in the next moment, he had disappeared into the bamboo forest.

Soon, we arrived at the Half-Mountain Courtyard.

"Brother, you're back!"

Xiao Yan, who had just finished practicing the [Qi Eating Method] in the courtyard, was delighted to see Lu Qing return.

After more than a month of training, the little guy has mastered the [Qi Eating Method] to a considerable degree.

With abundant Spiritual Power within his body, he had accumulated some strength in the Qi Refining Realm and was not far from reaching the Minor Completion of Qi Refining Realm.

After all, Xiao Yan's talent for cultivation is also exceptional.

According to Yan, even in the Ancient Cultivation Era, he would be considered a peerless genius, a core Direct Disciple of a top-tier cultivation sect.

"Um."

Lu Qing patted the little guy's head and looked towards the house.

He could sense that his master was still in the meditation room, presumably experiencing the changes that followed his breakthrough.

So he didn't go in to disturb them, but stood in the courtyard, waiting quietly.

After a while, the sound of the door opening was heard from inside the house, and soon, the Old Doctor appeared at the door.

"Grandpa Chen, you're out of seclusion!"

Xiao Yan shouted happily.

"Hehe, just came out of quarantine."

The Old Doctor stroked his beard, his face beaming with smiles, clearly in a very good mood.

"Congratulations, Master, on reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm."

Lu Qing also offered his congratulations with great joy.

At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh again.

Master's talent for cultivation is simply too exaggerated.

He had been baptized by the Heavenly Tribulation, and with the solid foundation condensed from the World Source Energy, plus the assistance of his Lifebound Magical Treasure, the Five Elements Gourd.

His cultivation speed is different from that of ordinary people, which is understandable.

His master didn't have as many opportunities as him, but his cultivation speed wasn't much slower, and he reached the Qi Refining Realm Perfection stage much earlier.

Now, he has broken through the barrier and entered the Foundation Establishment Realm stage.

Such progress in cultivation is astonishing.

Even Yan couldn't help but marvel in Lu Qing's mind. "Young master, your master's comprehension is exceptionally strong, a rarity in the world."

"As expected, you can't hide anything from you, A Qing," the Old Doctor said with a smile. "A few days ago, I treated Zi Hao and the others."

From the strange runes on their bodies, we gleaned some other insights into the workings of the body 'Vitality Qi.

With a sudden realization, he also glimpsed a trace of the profound mystery of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

I originally only planned to retreat for a few days to organize my thoughts, but I didn't expect to break through directly.

"Master's talent for cultivation is truly admirable," Lu Qing exclaimed.

I was also surprised.

He naturally knew what his master meant by runes.

Those were rune marks planted by Demonic Cultivator in the bodies of Wei Zihao and the others; they belonged to demonic cultivation techniques.

Unexpectedly, Master was able to gain inspiration from that, decipher the mysteries of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and break through to a higher realm.

This level of understanding is simply unimaginable.

"Don't try to sweet-talk this old man," the Old Doctor said with a laugh.

When it comes to talent in cultivation, is there anyone who can compare to my disciple?

Just as the master and apprentice were praising each other, Lu Qing suddenly felt a slight stirring in his heart.

He sensed it; a wisp of energy was lingering outside Nine Li Village.

And that aura was quite familiar to him.

Lu Qing smiled and said, "Master, it seems we have guests."
