He pulled out the jade bottle cap.
Ye Chen took a sniff and poured out a sparkling pill in his palm. He swallowed it and immediately felt refreshed. However, the effect was only limited to the physical body, and it did not have much effect on the mind and soul.
[Hint: Experience 1]
The sudden notification surprised Ye Chen a little, but then he thought about it and said,"It seems that the increase in experience is comprehensive. Taking pills is also experience, reading books is also experience. It's just that some experience increases a lot, while others increase very little.”
Ye Chen thought for a moment and took another pill. As expected, after taking it this time, there was no increase in experience. Experience seemed to be something that would be obtained after the first experience, including reading books. When he read the second time, his experience would not increase anymore.
He put away the jade bottle.
Ye Chen returned to his small pavilion. He was going to continue reading.
An ordinary person would definitely be frustrated and unable to read for a month, but his reading skills had been practiced for many years. He could easily finish reading a book with millions of words in one breath without moving. Reading was a pleasure to him.
……
Seventh Peak.
Under a pine tree on the peak.
There were two stone stools and a stone platform. There were crisscrossing marks on the stone platform. It was a chessboard. Two people were sitting on both sides of the chessboard playing chess. One of them was the elder of the Seventh Peak and Ye Ziling's master, Yu Cheng. He was a half-step Perfected Being at the perfected Foundation Establishment realm.
In this world, it was not difficult to refine Qi, but only one in a hundred could break through to the Foundation Establishment realm. It was even more difficult to form a Golden Core. This step was called the Heaven Barrier!
Swallowing a golden core into his stomach, his life was up to him, not the heavens!
After breaking through to the Golden Core realm, one could be called a Daoist Master!
Even someone like Yu Cheng, who had broken through to the perfected Foundation Establishment realm and condensed a Half-Step Golden Core, was a famous existence in the region. He could become an elder of a sect and was respected as a Half-Step Perfected Cultivator!
"You've really taken in a good disciple.”
Sitting opposite Yu Cheng was the fifth peak's peak master, Zhang Mingxuan. His gaze swept toward the middle peak below the seventh peak as he spoke with a hint of envy.
A disciple like Ye Ziling who had broken through the Foundation Establishment barrier in three years was undoubtedly a peerless prodigy that only appeared once in a hundred years. She had the hope of breaking through the Heaven Man Barrier, stepping into the Golden Core realm, and becoming a Perfected One!
"It's just fate." Yu Cheng chuckled.”
Zhang Mingxuan retracted his gaze and placed a piece on the chessboard.""Perhaps she will be the pillar of support for our Purple Cloud Sect in the hundred years to come…Oh right, I heard that Violet Spirit has an elder brother. Don't let her be caught up in worldly affairs, causing her Dao-heart to be lacking and forever separated from the heavens.”
Yu Cheng smiled casually and said," Don't worry. Her brother's aptitude is ordinary, and his spiritual roots are messy. It'll be difficult for him to break through the barrier of Foundation Establishment in his entire life. He'll definitely turn into a handful of yellow soil in a hundred years. At that time, his purple spirit should also be in the Xudan Stage. It'll be perfect to cut off his ties with the mortal world and break through the barrier of Heaven and man in one fell swoop, forging a Golden Core!”
"That's good." Zhang Mingxuan nodded.”
The Foundation Establishment realm transformed the Postnatal realm into the Connate realm, and one could live for 300 years. If one could break through the Heaven's Barrier and condense the Golden Core, their lifespan could increase to 1,000 years. However, this step was too difficult, and countless Heaven's Favorites were stuck here and died. Back then, he and Yu Cheng were also peerless geniuses, but in the end, they stopped at the Void Core realm. They could not transform the void into reality and break through the Heaven's Barrier.
If he was bound by the mortal fate, it was almost impossible to break the boundary between heaven and man. Now, hearing Yu Cheng's statement, Ye Chen would turn into dust in a hundred years, and Ye Ziling would no longer be bound by the mortal fate. It could be said that heaven and earth would be working together, and perhaps he could really break the boundary between heaven and man in one fell swoop!
Time flies,
Time flew by.
To cultivators, time passed in a flash. It seemed like nothing had happened. The entire Purple Cloud Sect had not changed at all. A year had passed quietly.
In the north courtyard of the Purple Spirit Cave on the middle peak of the seventh peak, Ye Chen was sitting cross-legged. He looked completely ordinary, without the slightest fluctuation of heaven and earth spiritual qi, as if he was no different from a mortal.
However, at this moment, a huge wave was set off in his heart!
The sea of consciousness was not the sea of consciousness. It had nothing to do with the soul or the body. It only existed in the dark. It was a mysterious point that could be condensed into one or evolved into the infinite.
At this moment.
In Ye Chen's mind, a mind sword was floating in the sky. The entire golden ocean below was churning with waves.
Every time the sword of thoughts created a ripple, the sea of mind below would be torn apart into thousands of abysses.
After an unknown period of time, everything gradually calmed down.
Ye Chen let out a breath, opened his eyes, and called out the spell interface.
ye chen
[Mantra: Heart Sword lvl 100 ( )]
[Experience: 337]
"It's getting harder and harder to improve the [Heartsword].”
Ye Chen looked at the data on the Tao technique interface and muttered.
In this one year, he had been immersed in the Ziyun Sect's Hidden Pavilion, reading all kinds of books. Because he had the identity of the elder brother of the seventh peak's legacy disciple, Ye Ziling, no one would disturb him. It could be said that it was very quiet.
In the past year, he had read almost all the books that he had the authority to read. He had also obtained a large amount of experience, and he had transformed all of this experience into the improvement of the Heart Sword.
The upgrade of the Mind Sword was different from the previous Basic Sword Techniques. From level one to level up, it had always been 100 experience points. When he broke through to level 99 just now, he had used up 1000 experience points in one go. It was obvious that he had crossed a large realm.
After such a huge leap, Ye Chen realized that he did not know what level his current power was at. Previously, he had roughly judged that no one below the Gold Core Realm would be able to take his sword attack. However, after breaking the boundary just now, he could not judge anymore.
"I wonder if my current sword can rival a jindan?”
The gap between Jindan and Foundation Establishment was extremely huge. It was the so-called barrier between Heaven and man. Only after crossing it would one be a Daoist Master. If one could not cross it, they would still be a mortal.
Ye Chen knew that his breakthrough just now had made a huge leap, but he was not sure if this leap was bigger than breaking through from the peak foundation establishment realm to the golden core realm or crossing the barrier of heaven.
"Eh?"
Just as Ye Chen was thinking, he suddenly sensed something and exclaimed.
He stood up and went to the window. He looked towards the north, and a faint sword light flashed in his eyes. The sword light gradually became brighter and brighter, and in his heart, the golden ocean was also surging, raising a huge wave.
His Heart Sword sensed that Ye Ziling was being pursued hundreds of miles to the north. The person chasing her had an extraordinary cultivation level and did not have the might of a Golden Core. He should be at the Void Core realm.
A half-step Perfected Being!
He was considered a big shot in the entire Ancient China Continent. He would be treated with respect when he went to various sects. In the Purple Cloud Sect, he could even become an elder of a peak or directly establish a new peak!
"How dare you chase after a Violet Spirit?"
"Come and take my sword!"
Ye Chen's mind was like a raging river.
The mortal sword hanging at his waist was unsheathed silently. It was controlled by his Heart Sword and instantly pierced through the window. It turned into a white light and disappeared into the sky.
……
It was about a few hundred miles away from the Purple Cloud Sect.
In the sky.
The two streaks of light were entangled as they flew towards the Purple Cloud Sect.
The figure in the light ahead was none other than Ye Ziling. Her face was pale, and there was blood trickling down the corner of her mouth. She was trying her best to activate the flying shuttle beneath her.
Behind Ye Ziling, a middle-aged cultivator was riding a streak of light, his face gloomy as he chased after her. Above his head, a multicolored light could be seen, and within the multicolored light, an azure core could be seen floating.
Void Core!
This was a Void Core half-step Perfected Being!
If it wasn't for the fact that Ye Ziling's flying shuttle was a middle-grade spirit shuttle and she had activated her secret technique and consumed a pill, she would have been caught and killed by a half-step Perfected Being!
But even so, Ye Ziling had already reached her limit. Her spiritual power was almost exhausted, and the spirit stone in her hand could no longer replenish her spiritual power.
"The Purple Cloud Sect is right in front of you. If you continue to chase, aren't you afraid that the Supreme Headmaster of our sect will attack you and destroy your body and soul?!”
Ye Ziling said coldly as she continued to fly away.
Han Qi's face darkened." So what if it's the Ziyun Sect? They're at least hundreds of miles away. Do you really think you can run another hundred miles with your current condition?"!”
He was an ordinary rogue cultivator, and Ye Ziling was a Successor Disciple of the Purple Cloud Sect. Normally, he would not want to provoke the Purple Cloud Sect. However, Ye Ziling had killed his only disciple in a battle of spells. That disciple was actually his bloodline that he had left behind in the mortal world. He could not let this matter rest.
If he let Ye Ziling go because he was afraid of the Purple Cloud Sect, he would never be able to break through the Celestial Barrier and become a Golden Core Cultivator!
