Until … four years later.
Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.
Inside the quiet chamber.
Thickly-packed spirit stones were laid out, filled with dense Spirit Qi that enveloped He Song entirely.
As time passed, the spirit power within He Song’s body also started to surge crazily at this moment.
He Song furrowed his brows, spiritual power circulating throughout his body. A strong spiritual pressure immediately radiated from him, enveloping the entire quiet chamber under its tremendous force.
But at this moment, He Song didn’t pay any attention to the outside scenario at all.
Inside his body.
The circulating Spirit Power was operating at an extremely fast rate, ceaselessly rushing through the meridians within his body.
Soon.
A sensation of touching some kind of bottleneck emerged in He Song’s mind.
Half a year ago, He Song’s cultivation had already reached the peak of the sixth-tier Qi Refining.
And in this half year, He Song had been constantly trying to break through to the seventh-tier Qi Refining. However, after several attempts, he was still unable to overcome the bottleneck.
Nevertheless, He Song gained considerable benefits in the process of repeatedly challenging the bottleneck.
And after failing at the last stretch during the previous bottleneck challenge, when he felt the bottleneck loosening, He Song was sure.
He could rely on his strength to break through the bottleneck of the
Qi-refining late stage, and he didn’t need to save spirit stones to buy the Breakthrough Elixir in Green Wall Immortal City for breakthrough like Meng Guan.
This was the gap in their natural endowments.
Meng Guan only had five spirits roots, while He Song had four.
Therefore, Meng Guan was stuck in the sixth-tier Qi Refining, unable to progress even a little in several years.
On the other hand, He Song felt the bottleneck had already started to loosen in half a year. And he was about to break through to the seventh-tier Qi Refining soon.
With five spirit roots, the qualification is too poor. Unless they have enough resources, there is hardly any chance for a cultivator with five spirit roots to break through to the Foundation Establishment.
But for those with four spirit roots, even if they cultivate step by step without ample resources, they would still have a chance of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment before the age of sixty.
Although they do not have the Foundation Establishment Elixir, even though chances of forcibly breaking through are small, there is still a chance.
Maybe they would succeed if they were lucky?
Although such lucky ones are scarce, they do exist.
At least, they were much better than those with five spirits roots.
Meng Guan, with his five spirits roots, had staked his life for such a chance.
When the spirit power inside his body began to operate at high speed, an intense spiritual pressure enveloped the entire quiet chamber. He Song vaguely felt the moment of the bottleneck.
He Song took a deep breath. Then, he continued to control the spirit power inside his body without any distraction.
Thanks to his mastery of Object Controlling Skills, He Song had extremely high mastery over the spirit power within his body.
This point.
It was vividly demonstrated when he wanted to accelerate the operation of the spirit power in his body.
The previous breakthrough, it failed when just a step away.
But it let He Song sense the loosening of the bottleneck.
This time, success is assured!
Such a thought flashed across He Song’s mind, and a wave of strong confidence surged into his heart at this moment.
Operating the spirit power, breaking through the bottleneck, it’s now!
At a certain moment.
Within the quiet chamber.
He Song, who was sitting quietly, suddenly trembled.
“Qi-refining late stage, made it!”
Letting out a light shout, He Song didn’t stand up, but instead continued to operate the Thick Earth Formulas, starting to solidify his cultivation.
Just having broken through to the Qi-refining late-stage, a minor lapse could lead to a decline in one’s realm. Naturally, consolidating my cultivation base is of utmost importance at this moment.
As He Song started to circulate the Thick Earth Formulas.
Swiftly, the rich spirit Qi in the quiet room flocked over, enveloping He Song’s entire body.
Inside the quiet room, countless spirit stones provided a vast amount of spirit Qi for He Song to absorb.
The vast spirit Qi drawn in by the Spirit-Gathering Array also flowed into He Song’s body.
Almost in the blink of an eye.
The originally dense spirit Qi in the room visibly thinned a bit.
However, He Song had prepared for such a situation.
From the piles of spirit stones placed in the quiet room, a large amount of spirit Qi was quickly gushing out, restoring the density of the spirit Qi.
With a vast amount of spirit Qi enveloping his body, He Song felt as if he were immersed in a sea of spirit Qi.
He just needed to casually operate the spirit power within his body, and wisps of spirit Qi from the outside would be absorbed into his body, transforming into his own spirit power.
In a condition where there are sufficient spirit stones and he is still in the Spirit-Gathering Array, He Song almost does not have to worry about the concentration of the spirit Qi outside. He just needs to absorb the spirit Qi into his body.
As such, the time for He Song to consolidate his cultivation base will greatly decrease.
Just saying.
During usual times, when breakthrough to the seventh-tier Qi Refining occurs, one needs a month’s time to consolidate the cultivation base.
However, at this moment, under such a dense concentration of spirit Qi, He Song only needs ten days to fully consolidate his cultivation base, and will no longer let his cultivation base fall from the seventh-tier Qi Refining.
However.
While absorbing spirit Qi to consolidate his cultivation, He Song secretly rejoiced.
Qi-refining late stage!
After many years of cultivation, he had finally reached the Qi-refining late stage!
From being a first-tier Qi Refining cultivator to now a seventh-tier Qi Refining cultivator, the difference in status is extremely significant.
At Qi Refining first- tier, being at the very bottom of the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, anyone who saw him could trample him.
At seventh-tier Qi Refining, though, he is at the Qi-refining late stage. Even though he still remains at the very bottom in the Cultivation World, his status within the small Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion is drastically different. Qi-refining late stage cultivators can have Immortal Pavilions offer small
Qi-refining late stage cultivators can have Immortal Pavilions offer free steward positions to lean on.
Qi-refining late stage cultivators can safely walk within the Immortal Pavilion and Immortal City without much danger to worry about.
Though they are all in the Qi Refining stage, the gap in status between the two is substantial.
At least.
Right now, in this small Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, He Song has become one of the few people standing at the top of the pyramid.
Except for one Foundation Establishment Master atop his head, there is no one
However, after meticulously calculating the time, He Song’s eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of vicissitudes.
Five years ago.
He Song met Su Yan. Back then, He Song had calculated the time since he arrived in this world.
At that time, seventeen years had passed since he came to this world and became a first-tier Qi Refining little cultivator.
But now, another five years have passed.
He Song has been in this world for a full twenty-two years!
Twenty-two years of time, from being a first- tier Qi Refining small cultivator to the current seventh-tier Qi Refining late-stage cultivator.
Only He Song himself knows the difficulties he has experienced in this journey.
From the initial carefulness when he just arrived in this world.
To the now jubilant entry into the seventh-tier Qi Refining, the psychological journey during this period made He Song nostalgic.
“Past experiences are like fleeting clouds of smoke. The Qi-refining late stage is merely the starting point of cultivation. In the future, I still need to cultivate cautiously. Considering my status, if I were to die inexplicably, it would truly be a loss.”
As He Song was consolidating his cultivation base using the Thick Earth Formulas and recounting past events, he was even more determined to stay cautious..
