Absorbing the Earth Spirit Pearl, Qi Refining Realm Sixth Layer!

Absorbing the Earth Spirit Pearl, Qi Refining Level Six!

"Cloud Gazing Qi Swallowing Art."

"Basic Cultivation Methods for Condensing Qi; it can absorb the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth for one's own use!"

"I never expected Bai Feng to have something like this on him. It seems he made preparations in advance, clearly planning for something!"

Qin Yang narrowed his eyes slightly. He had not expected such an unexpected windfall.

He had been worrying that he did not possess any Cultivation Methods capable of absorbing the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth.

But now, things had worked out perfectly. Bai Feng had delivered one straight into his hands.

With this Cloud Gazing Qi Swallowing Art, after obtaining the Earth Spirit Pearl, he naturally would not need to swallow it raw and worry about his body exploding!

Afterward, he searched again and discovered that a yellowed scroll had actually been specially sewn into Bai Feng's clothes. If he had not conducted such a meticulous inspection, he truly would have had no way of noticing that there was still something hidden there!

"Bai Feng really wasn't simple."

"He secretly prepared so many good things over all these years!"

Qin Yang smacked his lips and spread open the yellowed scroll in his hand.

It was a map.

It only marked a place called the Cave Immortal Land, along with some explanatory writing.

"The Cave Immortal Land, a land of myriad wonders, mysterious beyond mystery, is where all under Heaven return to become immortals."

"Enter the Cave Immortal gates, cultivate the myriad wondrous methods, and attain eternal life and immortality!"

"Hiss."

Qin Yang could not help sucking in a cold breath, his eyes brimming with delight.

This was actually a map related to a sacred land of cultivation!

"From the looks of it, the Cave Immortal Land should be an extremely glorious and flourishing sacred land of cultivation, the stronghold of the righteous path."

"Bai Feng, Bai Feng, I really have to thank you for making such thorough preparations. With this map, I can search for the Cave Immortal Land in your place later. Perhaps I'll even have a chance to become its disciple."

"Rest assured. I'll help you cultivate your share as well!"

Qin Yang said joyfully.

Thinking about it now, Bai Feng truly had made ample preparations.

Not only had he obtained a spirit formation capable of removing the poison of the Soul Locking Pill from his body, he had even prepared a way out in advance.

With this map, he could follow the route marked on it to find the Cave Immortal Land in the future and escape from his sea of suffering!

However, it had now become Qin Yang's possession.

Before leaving, he did not forget to strip Bai Feng completely bare. Only after confirming that nothing at all remained did he depart, hurrying toward Xiabai Town to retrieve the Earth Spirit Pearl.

As for the scroll he had just obtained, he could wait until his cultivation had improved before setting out. There was no rush.

Having lived through several lifetimes, Qin Yang already understood all too well that this was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. Without cultivation, it was useless no matter where one went.

But once one possessed strength, everything was different. One could grasp one's fate firmly in one's own hands!

This time, Qin Yang traveled at full speed, taking less than half a day to successfully reach Xiabai Town. It was only approaching dusk, so there was still plenty of time.

"Azure Blood Crocodile, time is running short."

Qin Yang was eager to give it a try.

His cultivation was now vastly different from before. He had already reached the Qi Refining Realm Fourth Layer, a full three layers stronger than the Azure Blood Crocodile. In theory, he should certainly be able to deal with it easily.

Just as expected.

The Azure Blood Crocodile was alarmed and charged out with a roar.

However, with the battle experience he had gained from fighting it in his previous life, Qin Yang was now utterly familiar with the process. He immediately blinded the Azure Blood Crocodile, and everything after that was merely cleanup.

An hour later, the Azure Blood Crocodile collapsed with a thud amid its wails and fell silent.

Qin Yang easily obtained the Earth Spirit Pearl!

"Let's find a place to go into seclusion first!"

Qin Yang immediately left this watery marshland.

He deliberately traveled more than twenty li away from Xiabai Town. After having an open-hearted exchange with a black bear, he successfully moved into the black bear's cave.

The black bear, whose life force had already been severed, naturally had no objections.

"In this damned place, no one should be able to find me, right?"

Qin Yang made some more arrangements and blocked off the cave entrance. Only then did he relax.

Afterward, he took out the Earth Spirit Pearl. Before that, of course, he first had to cultivate the Cloud Gazing Qi Swallowing Art.

This was a basic Qi Refining technique, and it was not difficult to cultivate.

Qin Yang himself possessed a Fire Spirit Root. Although it was only low-grade, he still had a certain talent for cultivation.

Whoosh!

He memorized the incantation and continuously cultivated according to the technique, breathing in and out to a special rhythm—gazing at the clouds and rinsing his mouth with the evening dew!

Three days later, Qin Yang succeeded.

He circulated the Cloud Gazing Qi Swallowing Art, continuously mobilizing the Spiritual Power within his body as it traveled through his meridians and dantian, completing cycle after cycle without the slightest obstruction.

At last, it was naturally time for the Earth Spirit Pearl.

Qin Yang gripped the Earth Spirit Pearl tightly in his hand, circulated the Cloud Gazing Qi Swallowing Art, and slowly absorbed the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth within it.

Sure enough, it quickly took effect!

The Earth Spirit Pearl shimmered with a faint glow. Wisps of spiritual radiance blossomed, illuminating the pitch-black cave until it was bright.

In a haze, one could even see wisps of the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth being drawn out from the Earth Spirit Pearl. Following a special rhythm, they flowed into Qin Yang's mouth and nose.

After this pure spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth was refined, it left him feeling comfortable from head to toe, as if he were floating among the immortals.

His cultivation was also steadily rising.

After four days, Qin Yang's cultivation broke through, entering the Qi Refining Realm Fifth Layer!

But this still was not the end.

Qin Yang worked tirelessly and relished every moment of it, without the slightest slackening.

By the end, even faint spiritual energy lingered around him, making him look as though he were sitting within a land of spirits, his bearing extraordinary!

This time, Qin Yang cultivated for nearly ten full days before finally breaking through once more, reaching the Qi Refining Realm Sixth Layer!

Buzz!

A powerful force that could be felt broke through some kind of barrier, causing the aura around Qin Yang to rise. He was several times stronger than before.

He tried mobilizing the Spiritual Power within his body and looked inward at himself. He discovered that his Spiritual Power had already grown extremely dense, continuously flowing like liquid through every meridian in his body before finally converging within his dantian and forming a small pool.

Compared to before absorbing the Earth Spirit Pearl, his strength had increased by at least twofold!

"If I run into Bai Feng again now, I should be able to kill him with a single punch, right?"

Qin Yang mused inwardly, very satisfied with his current state.

Looking again at the Earth Spirit Pearl in his hand, he found that the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth within it had already been completely absorbed. After losing its spirituality, it was merely an ordinary pearl, utterly useless.

Qin Yang was not worried in the slightest. After all, as long as he restarted the next life, he could obtain another Earth Spirit Pearl and cultivate with it again.

This was a starting resource that refreshed every time!

"I wonder how great the gap is between my current strength and that Old Devil Xuan Chengzi. Do I possess enough capital to contend with him?"

Qin Yang suddenly had a thought.

After all, as long as he possessed the strength to contend with that old fellow, he would not need to be forced to take the Soul Locking Pill. That way, he could escape safely.

But then he thought it over and did not dare to gamble while in his current state.

If he were defeated and captured alive by Xuan Chengzi, the other man would certainly resort to every possible means to interrogate him. Even dying would be difficult.

Before he had absolute confidence, he absolutely could not take such a risk!
