Disperse the power and start over, the fourth level of Qi Refining

Thousands of years ago, the Ancient Qi Refining Hundred Layer Technique appeared from a Saint's Secret Realm, subsequently stirring up a bloody storm in the Xuantian Star Region.

Top forces competed fiercely for it, and it can be said that many top powerhouses fell.

Then, the major forces were stunned.

For over a thousand years, they had sought various Geniuses to Cultivate this Cultivation Technique, but the highest anyone had Cultivated was to the fifty-second layer before their Lifespan ran out.

Consequently, this Cultivation Technique gradually spread throughout the Xuantian Star Region, becoming almost universally known.

However, what the old man just told Zhou Yuan was not nonsense; above the Qi Refining 9th layer, there was still one more layer, which was the Qi Refining Tenth Layer Great Perfection.

In some top Sects, many favored Geniuses would try every means to Breakthrough to the Qi Refining Tenth Layer, thereby forging a perfect Dao Foundation.

The Ancient Qi Refining Hundred Layer Technique was equivalent to forging ten such perfect Foundation Establishments, but the difficulty increased with each subsequent layer.

According to a powerful being's prediction, if someone could truly Cultivate to the hundredth layer, they could indeed forge ten Dao Foundations, then nurture ten Golden Cores, and achieve ten Nascent Souls!

Zhou Yuan naturally did not know these secrets, but the old man's words stirred his heart, and the hand he had lowered involuntarily paused.

Seeing a chance, the old man's eyes instantly lit up, and he quickly began to persuade!

"Fellow Daoist, I can swear to the Heavenly Dao that what I just mentioned about this Cultivation Technique is absolutely true; otherwise, this old man is willing to suffer the wrath of five thunders from the heavens, perishing in body and Dao!"

If someone on Blue Star had said that, Zhou Yuan would have scoffed; he himself had made many vows before.

But the Xuantian Star Region was different; such oaths were absolutely effective.

Zhou Yuan had been struck by lightning more than ten times over the past three years, a truly unforgettable experience!

However, Zhou Yuan was not so easily deceived now; he looked around and saw many people's playful gazes, instantly realizing there was something fishy.

"How much?"

Zhou Yuan asked calmly.

"One thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones!"

The old man quickly replied.

Zhou Yuan directly threw the Ancient Qi Refining Hundred Layer Technique onto the stall and turned to leave.

"Little friend, little friend, don't be so hasty! If you think it's too expensive, you can make an offer. How about this, five hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones?"

Seeing Zhou Yuan about to leave, the old man wouldn't let him go and quickly spoke.

Zhou Yuan looked around and instantly determined from the eyes of the crowd that the price was outrageous.

"Five Low-Grade Spirit Stones. Take it or leave it!"

Zhou Yuan turned to the old man and said.

"Little friend, you can't bargain like that! From one thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones to five, do you think this is selling cabbages?"

The old man's face showed displeasure.

"I'll only offer five Low-Grade Spirit Stones to just take a look; if you don't sell, then forget it."

"Whose Lifespan can support Cultivating to the hundredth layer? I still want to Foundation Establishment!"

Zhou Yuan instantly understood the trick and pointed it out directly.

Hearing Zhou Yuan say this, the old man knew he couldn't fleece him heavily.

The old man chuckled apologetically, "Little friend, five Low-Grade Spirit Stones is really too low!"

"If you're sincere, how about one hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones for you?"

Zhou Yuan didn't want to waste words and just walked away. The old man quickly chased after him, blocking Zhou Yuan's path.

"Little friend, add a bit more, five is really too little! Add a bit more and I'll give it to you!"

The old man quickly spoke. In fact, he would make a huge profit even with five Spirit Stones; the cost of this Cultivation Technique was less than one Spirit Stone.

"Six, that's the limit!"

"Deal!"

As soon as Zhou Yuan finished speaking, the old man eagerly agreed, then quickly shoved the Ancient Qi Refining Hundred Layer Technique into Zhou Yuan's hand, as if afraid Zhou Yuan would go back on his word, his speed unusually nimble.

"Damn it, I've been scammed by this old guy again!"

Zhou Yuan realized it internally, but now that the words were out, they couldn't be taken back, so he could only take out six Low-Grade Spirit Stones and give them to the old man.

The old man took the Spirit Stones with a smile and cupped his fists to Zhou Yuan, "This old man wishes little friend an early Breakthrough to the Qi Refining hundredth layer, and that one day you will dominate and be famous throughout my Xuantian Star Region!"

Zhou Yuan's mouth twitched, and looking at the playful glances around him, his face uncharacteristically flushed, and he quickly walked away.

After leaving that place, a smile involuntarily appeared on Zhou Yuan's lips.

What others couldn't do, he could.

Wasn't it just about Lifespan? If he needed Lifespan, he only needed to kill a few more people; what was there to worry about.

At this moment, Zhou Yuan's heart burned with excitement; he had already made up his mind to disperse his Cultivation and re-Cultivate this Ancient Qi Refining Hundred Layer Technique when he returned!

Zhou Yuan wanted to be the strongest in the world.

Moreover, he would definitely enjoy pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger in the future!

Ten against one, I don't believe I can't kill him!

But Zhou Yuan was also very clear that he would probably remain in the Qi Refinement Stage for a long time.

Zhou Yuan returned, spent seventy-five Spirit Stones to buy twenty Medicinal Pills from Wang Ling, and then went home.

Zhou Yuan did not rush to Cultivate, but instead carefully read the Ancient Qi Refining Hundred Layer Technique, and a day passed like that.

Zhou Yuan thought about it all night and felt there shouldn't be any problems.

The next morning, Zhou Yuan made up his mind to disperse his Cultivation and re-Cultivate.

Thinking about having to abandon everything he had worked hard for over three years, Zhou Yuan was still very reluctant, but he had to do it!

As Zhou Yuan counted down on his body, the Spiritual Qi within him continuously surged out of his body.

In the blink of an eye, his Cultivation dropped from Cultivation Realm 3 to Qi Refining stage - 2nd level, and then to Qi Refining First Layer.

His Cultivation continued to fall, and in just a moment, the Spiritual Qi in his body was empty.

Zhou Yuan felt very weak, then looked at the panel and was surprised to find that the Cultivation column had changed to 234 / 80.

Zhou Yuan was overjoyed; it turned out that before upgrading, the Cultivation was retained in the System!

Zhou Yuan quickly activated the first layer of the Ancient Qi Refining Hundred Layer Technique, and a moment later, he had already understood the operational path.

Just as Zhou Yuan understood the operational path, a massive amount of Spiritual Qi suddenly appeared in his body. His Cultivation directly reached the Qi Refining First Layer!

At this moment, the Cultivation value on the System panel changed to 154 / 100.

One day later, Zhou Yuan's Cultivation reached Qi Refining stage - 2nd level, and the System Cultivation value was 54 / 140.

Zhou Yuan then took out Medicinal Pills and began to Cultivate.

Time flew by, and a month and a half passed in a flash. Apart from getting hungry and making some food, Zhou Yuan spent all his time Cultivating and never went out.

The twenty Medicinal Pills and the Medicinal Pills obtained from Zhan Ming all went into Zhou Yuan's stomach.

Zhou Yuan opened his eyes, then checked the System panel.
