YM778.TV Chapter 40: Breakthrough
"If it weren\'t for this pill I would have taken decades to complete the Revolutions of this technique. The good thing is the effects become stronger as I take more pills, so after eating thousands of such pills, I should be able to reach the next level with only this single one." He ate it in one gulp.
As he took a deep breath, he started his breathing exercise. Slowly he started to move, his muscles and tendons responding to the familiar movements that had become second nature to him after training in it for over a decade.
As he continued his training, he felt the pressure building up in his body. Approaching the 81st Revolution of the Chaos Body Refinement Technique, he felt his excitement overflow as he ignored the monstrous pain that could make even a high-level cultivator whine in pain.
He pushed himself past his limits and finally broke through to the 81st level of Chaos Body Refinement, he felt a surge of power changing his body at the sub-atomic level, changing every fiber of his being, making them stronger and grander than before.
Increasing his potential to a new height, "Haah! Haah!" He panted as his body broke everywhere, his blood flowing freely as his body began generating new and purer blood, making even his bloodline stronger.
He felt his body rapidly becoming more powerful and his power condensing further. He decided to take this opportunity to break through directly to the Qi Refinement realm.
He sat down cross-legged and began practicing the Basic Qi Gathering Technique that he learned for his awakening ceremony. He started to meditate and felt the qi in the surrounding world, while his body continued breaking and reforming itself.
He didn\'t even take 5 seconds before he was able to begin absorbing Qi from the surrounding atmosphere. At first, it was one wisp of qi at a time that he was absorbing, but his body began absorbing Qi as well to finish reforming his body, transforming it to be the most perfect vessel for cultivation as the body reforging began sucking the qi from the surrounding environment of the Mystique Realm.
The devouring force became so strong that a qi vortex formed above his head, but it wasn\'t like the one before where he only had a vortex due to his awakening, this time he was absorbing all the Qi and forging his body with it.
The pain became hundred times worse than when he was practicing the Chaos Body Refinement technique, he clenched his teeth to endure it and focused all his will to absorb the Qi and direct it to his body. Washing his body with qi and gathering a bit of that purified gaseous qi in his dantian.
1st level of Qi Refinement Realm
2nd level of Qi Refinement Realm
…
He didn\'t stop his breakthrough until the 5th level of Qi Refinement Realm as his breakthrough finally stopped and his body also became much stronger.
He was still sitting on the grass but it was no longer green, it had long lost its original color to red due to all the blood Shen Yuan lost while reforging his Body. His body discharged a lot of impurities together with his blood.
"Haah… haah… this shit hurt so bad." He cursed due to pain after finally catching his breath.
He fell backward on the grass to take a moment of rest after finally surviving the ordeal, if his will wasn\'t strong enough then the pain alone would have made him faint and he would have died due to qi deviation.
He closed his eyes to rest for a moment but he opened them soon enough due to the unbearable stench from his body, "Ugh this stench is killing me." He stood up and ripped his tattered clothes aside and went towards the bathroom only in his pants.
All the maids who saw him were horrified by how badly he was injured, but none dared to come forward and ask him about it, they simple bowed their heads.
Shen Yuan was also too lazy to tell them about it and decided to tell his mother and sisters when they came back.
He opened the bathroom door and went inside, undressing and taking a shower before heading inside the tub to rest.
He closed his eyes and finally fell asleep.
…
He didn\'t wake up for a few hours due to how exhausted he was. He was woken up when Shen Yuxin came inside the bathroom, she looked at him and only then heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that not only was he not injured but his condition was better than ever.
He had broken through to the 5th level of the Qi Refinement Realm in a single day. It would be a historical record if someone in the outside world knew about it.
She lightly tapped his shoulder and said softly, "Wake up, Yuan\'er, it\'s already evening and you are still sleeping in the bathroom."
"Yawn~," Shen Yuan slowly woke up with a yawn as he hadn\'t expected that he would fall asleep in the bathroom, but it made sense after a bit more thought. Due to his exhaustion he was left drained of all his energy.
He looked up and saw his mom standing there in a beautiful purple qipao, smiling gently at him. He felt his day brighten at her smile as he stood up and went to hug her, totally ignoring that he was still naked.
This wasn\'t the first time that he was doing it, he is used to taking baths with her from time to time since a young age. He didn\'t train his shameless character in vain as he felt her soft breasts pressing against his chest.
He breathed deeply in her fragrance and said, "Welcome back mom, I missed you a lot while you were gone."
Shen Yuxin smiled gently and patted his back, "Yes, Yes, I know. I\'m back now, are you going to get out or are you planning to go back to sleep inside? Hehe~." She giggled at the end of her sentence.
Shen Yuan left her and began drying himself with a towel, while speaking in an embarrassed tone, "Cough, sorry for making you wet mom, I was just too excited to see you after a few days."
