Condensed five small sword seeds

The thoughts that flashed through Zhou Yuan's mind just now seemed to take a long time, but in reality, it was only an instant.

Zhou Yuan didn't deny it, nodding directly, then asked, "Senior Bai, how did you notice?"

Black Butcher smiled slightly, then said, "The few times you came back, I observed that you had extremely heavy resentment on you, so I guessed this outcome."

"But you, Zhou Boy, did surprise me a bit; you were actually able to dispel the resentment. Otherwise, I would have found you long ago. I don't want you to die in that small courtyard one day."

Upon hearing Black Butcher's words, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart; he had been careless.

If Black Butcher could see it, then it meant Liu Minghai, Li Rui, Song Quanfu, and others could also see it, but these people had never mentioned it in front of him.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhou Yuan's expression became somewhat uncertain; he couldn't guess what those people wanted to do!

Black Butcher stared at Zhou Yuan, then said, "Zhou Boy, find a way to leave the Spirit Driver. Qinglin City is about to fall into great chaos soon!"

Zhou Yuan was slightly stunned upon hearing this, then asked, "Senior Bai, are you referring to the Forget Worry Sect's interest in the Spirit Stone mine in Qinglin Mountain Range?"

Black Butcher looked at Zhou Yuan with a meaningful gaze upon hearing his words, then said, "That's just one aspect. If it were just that matter, Qinglin City wouldn't fall into chaos!"

"But I can't tell you the details for now. I can only tell you that Qinglin City will be peaceful for at most three months. After three months, it will definitely be in great chaos."

"If you believe me, leave the Spirit Driver within three months. When I leave Qinglin City then, I'll take you with me."

"Of course, if you don't believe me, then forget it, consider it unsaid!"

Upon hearing Black Butcher's words, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart and quickly cupped his fists, saying, "Thank you, Senior Bai. I will find a way to extricate myself within three months!"

Black Butcher nodded, then earnestly said, "Zhou Boy, Loose Cultivators cannot achieve much. To go further on the path of Cultivation, you must find a way to join a Sect."

"After we leave here, I will take you to a Sect, but whether you can enter will depend on your fortune!"

"Thank you, Senior Bai!"

Zhou Yuan quickly cupped his fists to Black Butcher; he could feel the concern in Black Butcher's words.

Watching Zhou Yuan's departing back, Black Butcher sighed and murmured to himself, "My girl, this is all your father can do. Whether you two can be together in the future will depend on your fate!"

Zhou Yuan returned to his small courtyard, then looked at his Dantian. Inside his Dantian, five small swords had appeared; this was Zhou Yuan's harvest from one month.

In one month, Zhou Yuan condensed three Foundation Establishment seeds. This speed was absolutely terrifying!

In fact, Zhou Yuan slaughtered more than twenty pigs every day, and among them were many from the Foundation Establishment Realm, which greatly delighted Zhou Yuan.

At this moment, Zhou Yuan had already advanced the Ancient Qi Refining Hundred Layer Technique from the twenty-third layer to over the fiftieth layer.

Then Zhou Yuan looked at his System panel.

【Host: Zhou Yuan】

【Cultivation: Qi Refining 8th Layer: 8980 / 12000】

【Lifespan: 21 / 8578.7】

【Aptitude: Three Spiritual Root】

【Luck Value: 4890】

【Skills: Middle-Grade Fireball Technique, Low-Level Soul Gathering Array】

【Special Abilities: Thousand Faces Technique, Time Destruction Technique, Aura Concealment Technique (Second Layer)】

Looking at the panel before him, Zhou Yuan didn't hesitate at all and directly exchanged for 163 drops of Soul Liquid, clearing his Luck value to 0.

Zhou Yuan had a premonition that the strengthening of his Divine Soul held great significance for his future.

Although those Supreme Heavenly Rank Battle Skills could be exchanged for 1000 Luck value, Zhou Yuan resisted the temptation and wholeheartedly focused on strengthening his Divine Soul.

Zhou Yuan had figured out one thing: when his strength was low, even if he exchanged for a Supreme Heavenly Rank Battle Skill, it would be useless because he couldn't unleash its power at all.

Moreover, once it was recognized as a Supreme Heavenly Rank Battle Skill, he would even face a deadly disaster.

Ever since Zhou Yuan condensed the third sword-shaped Foundation Establishment seed, his Cultivation value no longer surged layer by layer but remained fixed at 12000.

This made Zhou Yuan breathe a sigh of relief; if it continued to surge, he wouldn't be able to bear it either.

Looking at his Lifespan, which had already soared to over eight thousand five hundred, Zhou Yuan was also quite speechless; it was increasing too quickly.

It wouldn't be long before he felt his Lifespan would exceed ten thousand. The thought of being able to live as a ten-thousand-year-old demon made Zhou Yuan's heart tremble.

Zhou Yuan then closed his eyes to meditate, beginning to refine the Soul Liquid and slowly strengthen his Divine Soul.

At noon the next day, Zhou Yuan slowly opened his eyes, feeling that his Divine Soul had grown much stronger, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"A life with a cheat System is indeed different!"

Zhou Yuan murmured, then stood up, stretched, and his bones immediately crackled.

As Zhou Yuan's Cultivation of the "Ancient Qi Refining Hundred Layer Technique" deepened, he gradually gained a new understanding of the terrifying nature of this Cultivation Technique.

Every time he reached Qi Refining Tenth Success and the Spiritual Qi in his body automatically converged into a sword-shaped Foundation Establishment seed, his Physical Body would undergo a tempering.

Now he had already condensed five sword-shaped Foundation Establishment seeds, which meant his Physical Body had undergone five temperings.

Zhou Yuan felt the terrifying power within his Physical Body. He felt that even if he didn't use any Spiritual Qi, relying solely on the power of his Physical Body, he would be enough to kill someone below the Qi Refining eighth layer.

As for the Qi Refining ninth layer, he wasn't sure yet!

Zhou Yuan opened the door and surprisingly saw Bai Yunxiu not far away.

Seeing Zhou Yuan, Bai Yunxiu's face flushed slightly.

"Zhou Dage, aren't you going out today?"

Looking at Bai Yunxiu's flushed face, Zhou Yuan found it amusing. This little girl had been blushing intensely whenever she saw him recently.

Zhou Yuan naturally knew the reason and also had a good impression of Bai Yunxiu.

Zhou Yuan said with a smile, "Miss Bai, I'll be home today and tomorrow; consider it two days of rest."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yunxiu's face showed a hint of joy, then she smiled and said, "That's great, Zhou Dage! I happen to need to buy some things this afternoon; will you come with me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuan quickly nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, I also happen to want to go for a stroll this afternoon!"

What Zhou Yuan said was true. He had been in Qinglin City for quite some time, but he had never really explored Qinglin City properly.

After finishing lunch, under Black Butcher's dark expression, Zhou Yuan and Bai Xiuer left.

Zhou Yuan was actually not very familiar with Qinglin City; his daily routes were almost fixed.

But Qinglin City was very large; otherwise, it wouldn't be able to become the largest gathering place for Loose Cultivators in the entire Baiyang Domain.

As soon as he walked onto the street, Zhou Yuan felt something was off; there seemed to be more people in Qinglin City.

Moreover, Zhou Yuan discovered that among these people, there were even many at the Qi Refining eighth and ninth layers.
