70: Qi training level 4

Liu Sisi and Yang Rongrong were both professionals, and Liu Xuan obtained an experience from them like never before; it was a beauty that came from the heart and touched the Divine Soul, which could not be described by ordinary words.

"Young Master, it is time to circulate the Cultivation Technique!" Liu Sisi reminded him in a sweet voice.

Yang Rongrong slightly raised her head, looking at Liu Xuan with her large, watery eyes.

With Liu Sisi and Yang Rongrong looking at him with their bright, beautiful eyes, Liu Xuan nodded subconsciously, and the Three Yang Body Gathering Method slowly began to circulate.

A moment later, a peculiar feeling emerged, and most of Liu Xuan's consciousness was automatically drawn to the circulation of mana within his body.

"Hiss~"

The greatest joy in life had to be the improvement of cultivation; the mana in his Dantian suddenly increased by a segment, bringing an incomparably comfortable sensation to his Divine Soul as well.

With Yin and Yang generating each other and fusing together, this mana naturally converted into Liu Xuan's own mana. In just a short while, the total amount of mana within Liu Xuan's Meridians had increased by nearly half.

As the mana circulated with the Cultivation Technique, it gradually gathered in his Dantian. Liu Xuan had already reached a Bottleneck; originally, only a small portion of this mana would nourish the Dantian, while the rest would slowly dissipate.

However, Liu Xuan's Body Refining had broken through to the Qi Refining Fourth Layer ahead of time, causing the Bottleneck of the Qi Refining Third Layer to loosen.

"Hum~"

The mana in his Dantian compressed, and the mana in the center gradually underwent a qualitative change, containing increasingly higher energy.

"Pfft~"

A wisp of illusory golden flame ignited, as if illuminating the entire Dantian.

Qi Refining Fourth Layer, Middle Stage of Qi Refining, it was done!

The Three Yang Body Gathering Method reached Minor Achievement; his mana was imbued with the Pure Yang attribute, making it more powerful and longer-lasting.

A Cultivator at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining had more profound mana and could unleash a bit of the attribute from their Cultivation Technique, increasing their combat power several times over.

As long as one's cultivation broke through to the Middle Stage of Qi Refining, joining the Red Pine Sect would allow one to become an Outer Disciple Deacon, no longer being at the very bottom of the Cultivators, and not ending up worse off than some Martial Artists.

The limit for a Martial Artist was the Innate Realm, with combat power comparable to a Cultivator at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining. For an ordinary Cultivator at the early stage of Qi Refining, the most shameful thing was to be worse off than an Innate Martial Artist!

Breaking through to the Middle Stage of Qi Refining was different; even if an Innate Martial Artist's combat power was equivalent to theirs, their status and standing were far inferior.

"Young Master, you... you broke through?!?"

Liu Sisi exclaimed. Feeling the aura of improved cultivation on Liu Xuan, she even forgot her fatigue—Qi Refining Fourth Layer, the aura of the Middle Stage of Qi Refining!

Beside her, Yang Rongrong also had her small mouth slightly agape, looking at Liu Xuan with an expression of disbelief.

They were very clear about Liu Xuan's situation: Perfection of the Qi Refining Third Layer, stuck at the Bottleneck position.

He had only joined the sect for two years; presumably, he had at most just reached Perfection of the Third Layer recently, and breaking through to the Middle Stage of Qi Refining would still require slow grinding.

But what was the situation now? He had broken through just like that?!?

The 'Casting Cauldron Technique' they cultivated could indeed assist in the cultivation of Yang-attribute techniques, but the effect shouldn't be this good, right?

The help a Cauldron provided for breaking through a Bottleneck was not particularly exaggerated; otherwise, everyone would be practicing Dual Cultivation Techniques!

Liu Xuan nodded slightly, "Just now, I fell into a mysterious Concept, and I broke through naturally. This is truly an unexpected joy!"

Liu Sisi looked at Liu Xuan with a complex expression; envy, joy, disappointment, relief... various emotions flashed through her mind.

The Cultivation Bottleneck was a mysterious thing; besides the slow, grinding effort, there was also an element of luck.

With the same talent and the same Cultivation Technique, some people worked hard at cultivation their whole lives until death and failed to break through, while others broke through easily with a single Epiphany; this was also a common occurrence.

That Liu Xuan could have such an Opportunity of Epiphany, while shocking and enviable, was not incomprehensible.

"This concubine congratulates Young Master on your cultivation Breakthrough!"

Liu Sisi forced herself to steady her body and said with a smile.

With Liu Xuan's current status, breaking through to the Middle Stage of Qi Refining at twenty years old, his future was truly limitless!

"I must also thank you, Sisi, for your great help just now!"

Although according to normal cultivation, he would have been able to break through on his own in a few days, it was always good to break through a few days earlier.

Liu Xuan had always disliked treating women unfairly; if there was merit, there must be rewards, so that they could follow him more sincerely in the future.

Liu Xuan didn't care about the Cauldron aspect; as long as they followed him sincerely, he would certainly not let them suffer in the future.

As for now!

...

Another hour later.

Liu Xuan leaned against the head of the bed and took out a bottle of qi and blood pill to consume, the bit of Origin Qi lost just now quickly recovering.

The Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Body Refining Method was extremely overbearing and could use qi and blood to quickly restore Origin Qi.

Consuming some qi and blood pills could speed up the recovery of the two women; why not do it? Liu Xuan was not so stingy as to be reluctant to part with a mere few Spirit Stones.

If Liu Sisi and Yang Rongrong recovered their states as soon as possible, they could also assist his cultivation faster.

With their assistance in cultivation, Liu Xuan's Qi Refining Fourth Layer cultivation could also reach Perfection a bit faster.

His consciousness sank into his Dantian; the wisp of golden flame that had just broken through was a bit brighter—this was the credit of Yang Rongrong later on—and his current cultivation at the Qi Refining Fourth Layer was already basically stabilized.

However, Liu Sisi and Yang Rongrong had suffered a loss of their mana Origin; this was something they had painstakingly cultivated, and recovering would also require quite some time.

It was certainly impossible to want to quickly improve his cultivation relying solely on the two women.

Early morning.

Liu Xuan instructed Liu Sisi and Yang Rongrong, "Remember to keep the matter of my cultivation Breakthrough a secret for me; do not go around spreading it. Do you understand?"

The two women were puzzled and looked at Liu Xuan together, "Husband, breaking through to the Middle Stage of Qi Refining is a great thing; why should we not spread it?"

Other Cultivators, upon breaking through in cultivation, were always eager for everyone to know; this was the first time they had seen someone not want others to know about their Breakthrough.

"I don't have great ambitions; I just want to live a peaceful life. This Breakthrough was truly an accident; there is nothing worth celebrating!"

"My Spiritual Root talent is poor; having my current status and standing is already enough to provoke jealousy, so it is better to be a bit low-key!"

Liu Xuan explained casually; it wasn't strictly necessary to hide this bit of cultivation, but he just wanted to get them used to his preference for a low-key style.

"Understood!"

"We know; we will not go around talking about it!"

The two women nodded obediently. Although they did not quite agree with Liu Xuan's words and actions, they still chose to do as Liu Xuan said.

Everything they had belonged to Liu Xuan; Liu Xuan did not need to explain his actions to them. They just needed to do whatever Liu Xuan said.

Liu Xuan nodded with satisfaction and comforted the two for a few moments.

Subsequently, he restrained his own aura and even cast a small Spell to conceal his aura.

Cultivators in the Qi Refinement Stage did not have Divine Sense; as long as he slightly restrained his aura, they would not be able to see through his cultivation unless they practiced a specialized Spirit Eye Technique.

Although Liu Xuan had a reasonable explanation for this Breakthrough, he still decided to conceal it for now.

He had already displayed enough Genius; now that he was a Disciple of Ancestor Qingyun, there was no point in continuing to show off even more Genius.

Displaying talent was to obtain resources; when the risk of displaying talent was greater than the resources gained, there was no need to be so ostentatious.
