63: With the aid of elixirs, rapid progress was achieved.

On the cold stone bed, Lin Ye sat cross-legged.

He carefully placed the warm white jade porcelain bottle, gifted by Su Qingyue, in front of him.

He gently pulled out the stopper.

Buzz!

Just a single whiff made Lin Ye feel a refreshing coolness spread through his Meridians, which had been slightly stinging from forcibly activating the True Fire, and an indescribable comfort throughout his entire body!

"What potent medicinal power!"

A tempest raged in Lin Ye's heart!

As expected of a high-grade bone tempering pill!

He poured out one.

The Medicinal Pill was a light golden color, perfectly round and full, and its surface even had extremely fine, natural Medicinal Pill patterns resembling human Meridians slowly flowing, exuding vibrant vitality.

This was a truly miraculous Spirit Pill!

Compared to it, the "qi and blood pill" he had painstakingly acquired in the Outer Sect before were nothing more than worthless medicinal dregs!

He no longer hesitated and swallowed the golden Medicinal Pill whole!

Boom!!!

The moment the Medicinal Pill entered his abdomen, a gentle yet vast and river-like surge of medicinal power violently exploded within his body!

This medicinal power was not as violent and destructive as the True Fire from the Heaven Burning Heart Sutra.

It was more like a pure source of life, full of vitality!

It transformed into countless warm streams, instantly flowing through his limbs and bones, nourishing his tendons, bones, and skin, which were already riddled with hidden injuries from extreme Body Refining!

"Now is the time!"

Lin Ye's mind was more focused than ever before!

"System! Initiate AFK! Target - Heaven Burning Heart Sutra!"

"[Command confirmed! Pure Medicinal Pill energy detected, AFK mission automatically adapted...]

[AFK efficiency will be temporarily boosted to: Perfect!]

[The System will automatically guide the medicinal power to prioritize Meridian widening and repair, with all remaining energy used for Cultivating the Heaven Burning Heart Sutra!]"

As the System prompt faded.

The vast medicinal power flowing within him instantly split into two parts!

A small portion transformed into the purest, most gentle spring water, precisely flowing towards the fragile Meridian walls within his body, which had been slightly weakened by the True Fire's scorching, silently repairing and widening them like spring rain nourishing all things.

The larger portion, however, transformed into the purest fuel, continuously surging towards the flickering Heaven Burning True Fire flame in his Dantian, which was like a candle in the wind!

"Hiss--"

Like dry wood meeting a raging fire!

The faint flame, after receiving this pure energy, surged dramatically! It instantly grew much larger than its previous tiny size!

The previous heart-wrenching pain, as if his Meridians were about to be incinerated, completely vanished!

In its place was an unprecedented feeling of warmth, comfort, and exhilaration, as if soaking in a hot spring!

Lin Ye could clearly "see" that, under the protection of the gentle medicinal power, the enlarged Heaven Burning True Fire, in a state a hundred times more docile than before, slowly began its first truly meaningful Great Cycle within his Meridians, following the path of the Mind-Cultivation Technique!

Outside, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, which had been somewhat sparse due to Black Rock Peak's remote location, at this moment, seemed to be drawn by some fatal attraction, transforming into tiny, visible specks of light, frantically pouring through the Immortal Cave's stone walls into Lin Ye's body!

His entire Immortal Cave instantly formed a small Spiritual Qi vortex!

...Time flew by as Lin Ye deeply focused on his AFK Cultivate, oblivious to his surroundings.

One day... two days... three days... When the morning of the third day arrived, and only one high-grade bone tempering pill remained in the bottle, Lin Ye's tightly shut eyes suddenly opened!

Boom!!!

A powerful Aura suddenly erupted from his slender body!

The entire dim stone chamber seemed to brighten momentarily under the impact of this Aura!

Within his Dantian, the Heaven Burning True Fire was no longer a faint flame, but had transformed into a fist-sized, constantly flickering, deep-red flame filled with endless dominance and destructive Aura!

And his Qi Refining Realm Cultivation, which had been stagnant for several months, experienced a frantic Breakthrough within these short three days, as if it had ridden a rocket!

"[Ding! Heaven Burning Heart Sutra proficiency +300! Current Realm: Beginner!]

[Congratulations, host! Cultivation Breakthrough! Current Realm: Qi Refining Realm, Second Layer!]

[Congratulations, host! Cultivation Breakthrough! Current Realm: Qi Refining Realm, Third Layer!]"

A series of System prompts, like the most beautiful celestial music, flooded his mind!

"Qi Refining Realm... Third Layer!"

Lin Ye slowly spread his palm.

With a thought, a faint yet scorching deep-red Spiritual Qi, like an elf, danced joyfully in his palm!

This was truly his own power!

Only three days!

With the aid of Medicinal Pills and the System's perfect control, he achieved what other Disciples would need years of arduous Cultivate to accomplish!

His Cultivation not only advanced rapidly in terms of Realm but also became incredibly solid and pure due to the domineering nature of the Heaven Burning Heart Sutra and the perfect tempering of the high-grade bone tempering pill!

Lin Ye slowly clenched his fist, feeling the surging, explosive, scorching Spiritual Qi within his body, and a sharp glint flashed in his dark eyes!

After consolidating his Cultivation in the Immortal Cave for a full seven days, Lin Ye finally stabilized his rapidly increased Cultivation at the Peak of the Qi Refining Realm, Third Layer.

He knew that he could no longer blindly immerse himself in arduous Cultivate as he had before.
