Gulp!
Late at night, after swallowing two Condensing True Pills in succession, Ye Zhen closed his eyes once more.
The instant the vast medicinal power of the Condensing True Pills spread out, it surged toward Ye Zhen's dantian like a great whale drawing in water as the Primal Chaos Unity Art circulated.
Before reaching Ye Zhen's dantian, however, it first had to pass through the Mirage Dragon Pearl First Layer Space. Once it emerged from the Mirage Dragon Pearl First Layer Space, it immediately became incomparably dense.
The Primal Chaos Unity Art continued to circulate, continuously converting medicinal power into True Essence and sending it into the True Essence Vortex within his dantian. Every circulation passed through the Mirage Dragon Pearl First Layer Space, and each time, it refined his True Essence by another trace.
The instant the final strand of medicinal power from the Condensing True Pills completely transformed into True Essence and merged into his dantian, the True Essence Vortex there flickered and abruptly grew several degrees larger.
Crack!
Vaguely, Ye Zhen suddenly sensed that a small bottleneck that had troubled him these past few days had been broken through.
"I broke through! My cultivation has reached the True Essence Second Layer!" Joy abruptly flashed across Ye Zhen's face.
As he activated the True Essence in his dantian, its circulation speed suddenly more than doubled. During its circulation, streams of qi-light were produced, and when activated, they gave him a sensation that stabbed his meridians until they ached.
"Gang Qi?"
With a thought from Ye Zhen, the moment he lightly activated his True Essence, a thin layer of cyan Gang Qi immediately covered his body like armor.
"Protective Gang Qi? The Primal Chaos Unity Art has broken through to the fourth level!" Ye Zhen was overjoyed once again.
