Chapter 85 Breaking Through Two Realms
Luo Qing was slightly surprised by Nie Shan's boldness.
Liu Yueru's aura is now approaching the Core Formation stage, and according to common sense, the strength of her divine sense should also increase greatly. Such close-range telepathic communication will most likely be detected, and may even be eavesdropped on.
Before he could remind him, Nie Shan's voice transmission came again, explaining the reason:
"Don't worry, I know her situation. Although Liu Yueru forcibly improved her cultivation by borrowing the bloodline of the Flame Demon, the Flame Demon is not a demon beast that is good at cultivating the primordial spirit, so her divine sense did not improve significantly."
Luo Qing understood and slowly responded with her divine sense, her tone calm: "I know."
"You know...what? You know?!"
Nie Shan looked on in astonishment, his voice filled with disbelief.
"The treasure is formed by the formation. Such a treasure of heaven and earth would be something that a normal person would want to obtain multiple times, and would never be satisfied with just one time."
Luo Qing explained calmly, "Those of us who know the secrets of the formation and have witnessed the birth of the treasure have no chance of surviving. Her promise was meaningless to begin with."
Although this was not the case, Luo Qing could not explain it at all.
The reason he feigned retreat and pretended to be ignorant was twofold: firstly, he was not confident of victory against Liu Yueru at the moment; secondly, he was also quite troubled about how to obtain the Golden Light Profound Fire Liquid, so he let Liu Yueru test the waters.
"It's good that you understand!"
Nie Shan's actions were not only to remind Luo Qing, but also to show that he and Luo Qing were on the same side, so as to avoid being mistakenly harmed.
Several groups, each with their own agendas, stood silently facing each other inside and outside the altar, waiting for the moment when the Golden Light Profound Fire Liquid would be perfectly condensed.
Outside the altar, Liu Yue sat cross-legged in mid-air, her body shimmering with crimson crystals and flames flickering slightly above her head. While suppressing the restless desire within her bloodline, she vigilantly scanned her surroundings, not allowing any disturbance to interfere with the condensation of the treasure.
Inside the altar, Nie Shan and the other two were adjusting their breathing at the edge, Deng Feng and the other eight continued to immerse themselves in the cultivation of the "Flame Devouring Technique", while Luo Qing continued to diligently cultivate the "Iron Cauldron Golden Body Technique".
Five days have passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, a dazzling dark golden light suddenly burst forth from the center of the Treasure Refining Altar, and the Golden Yang Divine Fire around Luo Qing surged wildly, flowing into his limbs and bones like a tide.
His physical body was undergoing a dramatic transformation, his bones creaking and cracking like metal striking metal. Beneath his skin, dark golden spiritual energy flowed like a dragon, constantly washing over and tempering his meridians and body.
"drink!"
Luo Qing let out a low shout, and his aura suddenly surged. The shackles of the peak of the early stage of Foundation Establishment were instantly broken, and his spiritual power surged out like a flood. His physical strength increased at a visible speed.
A fine, dark gold pattern gradually appeared on his skin, like a natural array, faintly echoing the Golden Sun Divine Fire Banners around him. Every inch of his muscles was filled with explosive power, and even his breath carried a majestic Golden Sun aura.
After a month of accumulation, his physical body finally broke through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage!
Luo Qing did not stop. Taking advantage of the momentum of his breakthrough, he continued to activate the Golden Sun Divine Fire Banner, gathering more Golden Sun Divine Fire, and once again devoted himself to arduous cultivation.
This time, due to the significant improvement in his spiritual attribute, although he still needed the assistance of the Lotus Seal, he no longer needed to pause and recuperate after only a few days of cultivation, and his efficiency increased dramatically once again.
Time slipped away quietly amidst the tedious waiting and arduous practice, and before we knew it, more than two months had passed.
Suddenly, Luo Qing's aura fluctuated again.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, a flash of golden light appearing in them. The dark golden patterns all over his body lit up, intertwining with the golden sunlight in the sky to form a huge cocoon of spiritual energy that tightly enveloped him.
Within the cocoon of light, the Golden Sun Divine Fire merged with his physical body, constantly compressing and condensing, hammering him like a piece of metal.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Luo Qing's heart pounded like a war drum, each beat sending out a ring of fire, and his spirit attribute soared like a rocket.
At the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage, his Spirit attribute reached over 50 points. After reaching the peak of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, it reached 76 points. Now, after breaking through to the late Foundation Establishment stage, it has jumped directly to 88 points!
The pain of physical breakthrough intertwined with the pleasure of surging power. Luo Qing gritted his teeth, enduring the swelling pain all over his body, and let the Golden Yang Divine Fire rage within him.
His bones gradually turned golden, and a thin film with a metallic sheen appeared on his internal organs!
As the last wisp of Golden Sun Divine Fire was absorbed by Luo Qing's physical body, the spiritual energy cocoon suddenly exploded, and a powerful aura swept across the entire Refining Altar.
He slowly stood up, and the dark gold patterns all over his body gradually faded away, his skin returning to its normal color.
The faint pressure emanating naturally from his body caused Nie Shan and the other two inside the altar to involuntarily take a step back, their eyes filled with horror.
"Late Foundation Establishment stage... In just over two months, he actually broke through two minor realms, and his physical cultivation directly entered the late Foundation Establishment stage?"
Nie Shan gasped in shock, utterly stunned.
Although body cultivation is not the mainstream, and he might be weaker than magic cultivators of the same level in combat, he will have to call Luo Qing "senior brother" from now on!
Even with ample resources, it would take an ordinary cultivator several decades to progress from the early to the late stages of Foundation Establishment!
This is what makes the Ascending Ranks style so terrifying.
The conditions for ascending to the next level are indeed difficult to meet, but once they are met, the breakthrough in cultivation is both fast and ruthless!
For an ordinary cultivator, meeting the requirements for ascending a level once is considered a great stroke of luck. However, with his foresight and the assistance of Meng Bao, Luo Qing is confident that he can directly forge a path to ascend the level!
Luo Qing stretched his limbs, feeling the surging power within him, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.
Now his physical strength is far greater than before, and even if he activates the Shadow Fist, there will be no backlash.
Having cultivated the Iron Cauldron Golden Body Technique to this level, he was already able to suppress the first demon soul and obtain its innate supernatural powers.
Unfortunately, with only a little over a month left before the Golden Sun Secret Realm closes, it's clearly too late to cultivate one's physical body to the peak of Foundation Establishment before then.
Luo Qing looked up at the golden sun high in the sky. The sun's light was becoming increasingly intense, and the golden light and mysterious fire liquid at its center had condensed into a fist-sized ball of liquid, which was entirely white gold and emitted an extremely dazzling spiritual light.
Liu Yueru clearly sensed that the treasure was about to be completed. She opened her eyes from her meditation, her eyes filled with fervor and greed, and the red crystals and flames around her began to stir.
Luo Qing composed herself and quietly awaited the arrival of the final moment.
Just three days later, the golden sun directly above the Refining Altar suddenly erupted with an incomparably powerful spiritual wave, which swept across the entire Golden Sun Secret Realm in an instant.
Instantly, numerous crimson-gold orbs of light emerged from the mountains, rivers, and vegetation of the secret realm, and as if summoned, they rapidly converged toward the golden sun.
"The primordial energy of heaven and earth! Truly a divine-level spiritual object!"
