Chapter 30: Assailing the Middle Stage (Two)

The car drove all the way to a peoples park. As it passed by the Triumphant Virtue Plaza, the bodies of the two youths evidently tensed. However, the tremendous fox that normal people were incapable of seeing, merely opened a sliver of its golden pupils and followingly sneered disdainfully from its dark nose, continuing to bury its head in its shaggy tail.

Vice Minister Chu. When Xu Yangyi and the others had come to the entrance of the peoples park during the afternoon, there had been no one. But at this moment, a man wearing a white coat was standing at the entrance with smile stretching across his face, cupping his hands: Welcome, its been some time, are you well?

He was an unimpressive sight. His speech was slovenly and his beard was unkempt. He was approximately around twenty-seven to twenty-eight years old, however, on this night, he stood there like a mountain. Perhaps it could be said that if a passer-by saw this, they wouldnt know why they would be completely incapable of paying attention the things surrounding the youth. Their sight would only concentrate on his body like they were under the obey of rules.

A trace of a smile finally drifted onto Vice Minister Chus face. Just as the car stopped, the driver immediately opened the rear door and lent an arm to help him get out of the car. His footsteps quickened, and he carried an extremely splendid smile as he advanced forward and grasped the others hand: I am well. Vice Branch Master Qi still hasnt changed since fifty years ago; I am unable to restrain my envy.

Vice Branch Master Qi!

This was Nantong Provinces Heavens Law branch, yet the arrival of this old man brought the vice branch master to personally come welcome him!

As Vice Branch Master Qi heard these words, he sighed ruefully: Like a dream or fantasy, to speak of these observations only brings about a needless sorrow.

And you. He pulled on Vice Minister Chu who couldnt be considered tall in stature and walked towards the pavilion: We submitted an application to the government this year to develop in the Huanglong travel region, but you surprisingly made me return. We still have this matter in mind, you know.

Old Qi. Vice Minister Chu sighed deeply: Its not that I wanted to make you return, but the Huanglong travel region is Chinas tourism destination that exceeds the A-level. It is famous domestically and abroad. Your proposal is too radical. No matter the place, whether it be the central committee, and not to mention the provincial level, you cannot even get this pass through the prefectural level.

But there is a massive spirit stone mine beneath! The accumulated amount measures as high as 200 million tons! Weve already even ascertained there are four kinds of uncommon metals in association! The people of the Bountiful Treasures Pavilions refining department are nearly stationed full time there!

I know. It was said Vice Minister Chus reputation was brilliant, yet his face was without the slightest begrudging expression so that there wasnt even a change in his voice: Thus, it must be slowly planned. Otherwise, the billions of people of this entire nation will have no choice but to speak of it. Although Chinas million cultivators is its primary military strength, the fact is, the cornerstone of this nation is its billions of citizens. This is a matter that I, Minister Wang, and Minister Qi have personally taken charge over. In three months, He

avens Law will have an answer.

After he finished his words, he extended his hand behind towards a warmed thermos and unscrewed the cover. At nearly the same time, he set it down in his old, wizened hand.

How is Zhaonan? He sipped light and changed the topic. This was genuine Big Red Robe tea that could only China was in possession of. He was rather fond of this flavor.

Vice Minister Chus grandson is naturally a dragon among men. Vice Branch Master Qi narrowed his eyes: However, you have never cared of the wellbeing of your grandson. Only the status of his cultivation. Is it you have not necessarily come here today to engage in such pleasantries?

Vice Minister Chu slightly narrowed his eyes. Immediately, of the men he brought, regardless if they were police, the two youths, or his driver, all of them silently left like an orderly squadron of troops.

There wasnt a single man left behind. It seemed like the ebbing of a crowd. It was as if the fanfare on stage had ended as the main character took to the scene.

Vice Branch Master Qi was faintly stunned. Not even waiting for him to speak, Vice Minister Chu who was a head shorter than him walked in front of him and dragged out his hand, writing several characters on it with his right hand.

Do you speak the truth!? Vice Branch Master Qis expression transformed in an instant and his voice immediately sunk. He turned his hand over and gripped on to Vice Minister Chus hand, his lips somewhat pale and asked hoarsely: The prize this time is actually that item?!

It has been verified a thousand times over. Vice Minister Chu extracted his hand wordlessly and laughed coldly: Otherwise, why would I rush over here through the middle of the night to Fengyi City? It is a distance of several thousand kilometers from the Capital to Fengyi. I am not so idle with my time.

Vice Branch Master Qi tightly pursed his lips. He didnt dare to believe. Fortuity Profound Liquid was an absolutely match made in heaven if bestowed to a Qi Condensation cultivator. However, the grade of the elixir this time unexpectedly far exceeded that of Fortuity Profound Liquid that it was even an item that stirred the hearts of Foundation Establishment cultivators!

Which Daomaster was it that took it out? His state of mind finally stabilized itself with great difficulty. Within ten seconds, he immediately sought an answer.

Daomaster Floatingcloud. Vice Minister Chu leisurely threw a card oud: 500 million. An additional high-grade spirit stone.

IneedZhaonan to take the championship.

Hearing the two words for spirit stone, a trace of fanaticism flashed through Vice Branch Master Qis gaze in an instant.

Vice Minister Chu leaned in closer, grinding his white teeth: Will you take to the task or will the men that I have brought with me have to?

Vice Branch Master Qi didnt say anything, and Vice Minister Chu smiled: Relax. Its not worth of it to me to exchange my good future prospects for a group of Qi Condensation worms. It is merely that within a year, theyll have no way to use spiritual energy. For myself, a mortal, to achieve this much to such a degree at the pinnacle of my standing as a majestic vice minister is already a true irony.

Vice Branch Master Qi still didnt say anything. He only looked deeply at Vice Minister Chu.

Immortal brew. Vice Minister Chu said indifferently: Ive searched for ten years, but only found this much of a stump Dont use that kind gaze like you could pierce through the heavens to look at me, I havent even cooperated with the cultivation world for even half a year. A Qi Condensation cultivator besides the rank one, have you ever cared for one? As long as nothing major occurs, with my position as vice minister, even if he is late-stage Foundation Establishment, is it me he will give face to or will it be given to the worms in your eyes?*

It was silent for a long period of time. Vice Branch Master Qi retracted his hand, yet the card could be seen no longer: This matter will come to pass.

Daomaster Floatingcloud is sanctified by the Qin Imperial Courts Qin Family. He collaborates with world-class authorities. I am of the initial-stage of Foundation Establishment. Even if he kills me in passing, no one will dare raise half a word.

The corner of Vice Minister Chus mouth curled into a smirk. He looked at Vice Branch Master Qi indifferently and said faintly after a long period of time: When did you begin to speak so dramatically?

A mortal without background, one without the qualifications to possess this kind of treasure. Since you are a mortal you should stand in your own position.

He narrowed his eyes: You think there is someone else even more suited to achieve that item than my, Chu Tianyis, grandson, the successor of the Chu Family.

These words seemed to make the air grow cold. Even though he wasnt a cultivator, Vice Branch Master Qi couldnt burst out in laughter at him in the slightest.

Not waiting for the other to speak, he laughed eerily: They do not dare to be unfitting.

History has always been written by the victor however, one who is strong is not necessarily the winner. But certainly, the winner must be one who is strong. He used his cane to push aside the floor and laughed grimly. His voice was cold like a blade: As long as we continue to be the victor, it will forever be the history that we write that will be true in regards to those Qi Condensation losers and winners. As for what they think

He raised a brow: Is it as important as my 500 million?

Vice Branch Master Qi muttered to himself for a moment and spoke: If it is so I shall risk my life and accompany the gentleman this time.

Time flowed past by minutes and seconds. Already, Xu Yangyi didnt know how much time had passed. A day? Two days? Three days? Or perhaps a single hour?

He had held the thought in advance to end his seclusion after five days, however, he was presently not of mind to simply even care how many days had passed.

His gaze didnt leave his sea of essence. He didnt know how long it had been. The sudden strengthening of his spirit sense in addition with his first use of the Spirit Focusing Formation had sent spiritual energy pouring into his body in a frenzy. The surrounding air faintly trembled. Originally, it had been a soon to be brimming pool, but now, as far as the eye could see, the soaring spiritual energy had already become more intense as if was a pot of water that had just boiled!

But it still hadnt boiled over...

Xu Yangyis senses transformed bit by bit that even his state of mind was drawn by all kinds of profound, minute transformations. He could distinctly capture it was but a mere strand of a difference A strand was sufficient to push his initial-stage sea of essence over the edge!

That would be the time he would charge into the middle stage!

Whether or not he would succeed was temporarily not up for discussion. However, assailing a stage of Qi Condensation wasnt like that of Foundation Establishment. A single failure would create a blowback to the body. For Qi Condensation, as long as you reached the threshold, you could choose to breakthrough at any moment.

This was the compensation of the heavens to cultivators who had newly advanced towards the endless path of cultivation.

It merely that if one wasnt successful in advancement, one would be confronted with the degradation of spiritual energy. Approximately around a tenth would be lost in a single bout. However, in comparison to a single failure of charging towards a boundary of Foundation Establishment, where one would be in a situation where they would have to nurse themselves for several years, it was by far much better.

He had long decided that in case he fully swelled his sea of essence, he would assail the middle stage at the first opportunity!

Spiritual energy slowly flowed into his entire body. The length of time that passed was unknown. In the midst of his meditation, Xu Yangyis eyelids faintly trembled and slowly opened afterwards.

Innersight!

At this instant, his sea of essence was peaceful no more, rather vaporous strands of white spiritual energy were charging towards the firmament! The entire sea of essence had truly come to a boil!

This was the true Great Circle of the initial stage of Qi Condensation!

Shh He breathed in deeply without any hesitation, revolving the Hundred Solutions with a bang! His sea of essence loudly exploded forth!

An untold number of fog-like strands of spiritual energy frantically surged toward every major meridian and acupuncture point in his entire body!

Gall bladder meridian, liver meridian, large intestine meridian, stomach meridian, spleen meridian, heart meridian, small intestine meridian, bladder meridian, pericardium meridian, and the three truncal meridians, his short hair moved itself free of the wind, and his face gradually turned flushed.

Like a spirit snake, spiritual energy followed along his twelve meridians to form a complete cycle. If someone to examine him at this moment, they would discover the five viscera and six bowels and bones and flesh of Xu Yangyis entire body were emitting a layer of lustrous white light. An outer appearance of being encased in spiritual energy. This advance was actually the transformation of the body, a process of evolution. It was making his body even more suited to assimilating spiritual energy and storing it. If an analogy had to be made it was like a computer upgrade.

His heart was the CPU, his skeleton was the motherboard, and his flesh was the circuits At this very instance, all of the spiritual energy in his body was in the middle of undergoing a transformation! Once this transformation reached a critical point, his sea of essence would expand ferociously! The middle-stage of Qi Condensation would be achieved!

At this moment, in one of the arenas stone rooms, Chu Zhaonan was meditating. However, he suddenly opened his eyes in the next second!

The spiritual energies of heaven and earth was stirring abnormally...

It was not a common incidental skipping fluctuation rather, it was an entirely delighted abnormality! Furthermore, it was swiftly centralizing!

A stupefied gaze flashed through his eyes. Beneath the massive characters of Unrivaled Beneath the Heavens, at the lowest level of the branch of Heavens Law, it was a pure impossibility that an outside enemy had invaded or a treasure had appeared in the world. This could only represent a single matter!

Someone has advanced!

He suddenly leapt off the bed without a second word and sent the paper crane towards the door. In a short time, he rushed to the arena stage.

This is Just as he arrived outside, he was stunned, thoroughly dumbfounded.
