Spirit Qi, About to Break Through
"Two grains of Spirit Nurturing Dust won't be enough to break my soul into the Ling Realm, but they can narrow the gap. Let's try one first."
Looking at the two pale yellow dust particles in his hand, Xiao Ming pondered for a moment before finally unable to resist. With a thought, one of the Spirit Nurturing Dust fell from his palm and slowly floated in front of him.
With his gaze fixed on the single speck of Spirit Nurturing Dust, Xiao Ming slowly closed his eyes. As he closed them, a suction force suddenly emerged, and under this force, the pale yellow, shimmering dust instantly transformed into a tiny stream of light, shooting straight into Xiao Ming's forehead before disappearing.
As the grain of Spirit Nurturing Dust merged into his forehead, Xiao Ming's body trembled violently, his face tightened abruptly, and a faint, throbbing pain emanated from his head.
Xiao Ming frowned, enduring the faint pain. In his mind, the grain of Spirit Nurturing Dust was like a bullet, striking his soul hard and penetrating it.
The feeling of being struck in the soul is unpleasant, but fortunately, the pain did not last long and gradually dissipated.
Feeling the pain gradually dissipate, Xiao Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly realized that a strange fluctuation had suddenly spread throughout the surrounding world. Strands of extremely faint, unusual air currents seeped out from the Spatial Fluctuation and finally slowly invaded his forehead.
As this unusual energy flowed into his body, Xiao Ming was immediately surprised to find that the energy contained within his soul was beginning to grow from nothing, at an extremely slow pace!
"Is this Spirit Qi?!"
Xiao Ming's soul had long since reached the Mortal Realm Perfection. He had tried to sense the Spirit Qi in the world before, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't feel Spirit Qi presence.
But now, under the influence of this Spirit Nurturing Dust, the Spirit Qi that was impossible to sense by ordinary means was directly extracted and then merged into its soul.
Xiao Ming was delighted to feel the Spirit Qi gradually increasing within his soul. After a moment, he finally calmed his mind.
As he calmed down, a faint, pale yellow particle of light appeared in his mind, emanating a strange suction force.
This suction force wasn't strong, but it possessed a strange power that drew away the Spirit Qi that countless powerful individuals were powerless against, drawing it from the world.
The Spirit Qi, resembling the Aura of Chaos, slowly seeped out from within the space and then continuously entered Xiao Ming's brow.
This absorption of Spirit Qi lasted for nearly three hours before the light emitted by the pale yellow particles and the suction force gradually weakened. Clearly, this Spirit Nurturing Dust could not last long.
As the light emitted by the light particles grew dimmer, a faint clicking sound suddenly rang in Xiao Ming's mind after a long time.
As the Spirit Nurturing Dust shattered, the strange suction force abruptly ceased, and the surrounding Spirit Qi vanished instantly. No matter how Xiao Ming tried to hold on, it was to no avail; in the end, he couldn't even sense it anymore.
Seeing this, Xiao Ming couldn't help but smile wryly and had no choice but to exit the state.
"Sigh, this Spirit Nurturing Dust is good, but it doesn't last very long, and I don't have enough of it. I've heard that this Spirit Nurturing Dust is artificially refined. If only I had the Refinement Method."
Xiao Ming opened his eyes, glanced at the Spirit Nurturing Dust with a hint of reluctance, and finally stuffed it into his Na Ring.
There's only one grain of the Spirit Nurturing Dust left. Using it again won't be very effective, so I might as well keep it and take it out to look at it from time to time.
The probability of it appearing might increase in Simulator.
Speaking of Simulator lotteries, Xiao Ming was quite satisfied with the lotteries he had participated in over the past few months.
Aside from a few unlucky draws where he got junk items, everything he received was pretty good.
There is an Earth Tier Middle Grade Dou Technique called "Thunderfall Nine Heavens".
The silver-white sword, made of some mediocre material, was heated by Xiao Ming with Heavenly Flames. It seemed to be very heat-resistant, and he felt it could be used at least until he became Dou Zun.
The corpse of a Seventh Tier wolf-shaped Magical Beast.
There is also an Ancient Seventh Grade High-level Medicinal Pill Recipe that can help Dou Zong break through to the next level, the Sect Extreme Pill Formula.
One bottle of the Sixth Rank elixir Green Soul Pill.
The two days passed quickly.
The quiet town sits at the junction of the Black Corner Region and Jia Nan Academy. Sunlight pours down from the sky, illuminating the plaque above the town's entrance. The three ordinary, unassuming characters gleam with a reassuring luster in the sunlight.
Peace Town!
As Xiao Ming and his group flew over a mountain peak and looked down at the town at its foot, they felt a sense of relief.
"We've finally arrived," Zi Yan said happily. The journey had been tough for her. Traveling is never an easy thing. It was alright on the way there, as Xiao Ming would give her some energy-boosting snacks.
Later, because she ate too much and was about to break through, Xiao Ming directly controlled her snack supply.
She was practically drooling with envy; now that she's back at the Jia Nan Academy, she can finally enjoy some delicious snacks!
"Xiao Ming, quickly hand over the pills you promised to give me."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Xiao Ming shook his head, then took out a bunch of bottles and jars from his Na Ring, which looked like more than ten pills.
These were all prepared in advance by Xiao Ming. Because he considered that Zi Yan was about to break through, Xiao Ming prepared a lot more so that Zi Yan could absorb as much energy as possible to ensure her smooth breakthrough.
Looking at the bottles and jars, Zi Yan's big, dark eyes curved into crescent shapes with joy. She immediately pounced over and put the bottles and jars in Xiao Ming's hands into her Na Ring.
"Xiao Ming, you're so kind."
"Of course, when have I ever been bad?" Xiao Ming shamelessly boasted, patting Zi Yan's head.
Xiao Yi Xian watched the two bickering with a smile. Just then, Xiao Ming felt a Soul Fluctuation coming from them.
Then a figure shot in from a distance and landed on the back of the Amethyst Winged Lion King.
"Hahaha, I spotted the Amethyst Winged Lion King from a great distance. I didn't expect it to be you, Xiao Ming, back! You've only been gone a few months, how come you're back so soon? If those old guys knew, they'd be overjoyed."
The newcomer wore distinctive Blood Robe, had white hair and a white beard, and although he was smiling, he appeared somewhat stiff, perhaps due to his usually serious personality. This man was none other than Wu Tianlang, the Great Commander of the Jia Nan Academy.
"You flatter me, Great Commander. I only went out to take care of one matter, and I returned as soon as it was done. There's nothing to be reluctant about. On the contrary, it's been a few months since Great Commander you, Commander, and your abilities have improved considerably!"
