“I wonder if it will have any effect.” Ji Die took a deep breath, picked up the fruit, brought it to his mouth, and carefully took a bite.
The texture was completely different from when he had eaten it before; this time, the fruit melted instantly in his mouth.
Then, a warm current, which was Spiritual Qi, surged wildly through his body!
“It really can improve! Could this fruit also be a type of medicinal herb!” Ji Die’s eyes lit up with pleasant surprise, and he grew even fonder of the copper furnace.
It was simply a genuine treasure, constantly bringing him surprises!
However, the top priority at the moment was to refine this Spiritual Qi, so Ji Die didn’t bother with his excitement; he quickly closed his eyes and circulated the ‘Tai Xuan Scripture,’ transforming this Spiritual Qi into his own, continuously merging it into the Spiritual Qi within his body.
Immediately, Ji Die only felt a warmth spreading throughout his body, as if every pore had comfortably opened, making him extremely comfortable.
Only after the medicinal power was completely absorbed did he happily open his eyes, looking at the bitten fruit.
“The effect of this spirit-boosting fruit is so strong; one bite is almost equivalent to absorbing three Spirit Stones!”
This effect once again made Ji Die’s heart pound uncontrollably.
One must know that Spirit Stones required time for him to absorb, but eating this fruit only took a few dozen breaths, yet its effect was at least equivalent to two or three days of Cultivation previously. No wonder those Disciples were so envious!
This fruit was indeed a good thing!
And with his copper furnace, he could now have as many of these fruits as he wanted!
“First, Break through to Qi Cultivation Second Layer!” Ji Die’s eyes shone brightly, and he excitedly kissed the copper furnace. At this moment, he could already feel the Bottleneck of his cultivation loosening. If he had a bit more Spiritual Qi, he estimated he could directly Break through to Qi Cultivation Second Layer!
Coincidentally, he had only taken one bite of the spirit-boosting fruit in his hand, so he wasted no more time and quickly ate the small fruit in a few bites.
Boom! This time, the warm current was even larger, constantly flowing into his Qi Sea under the guidance of the ‘Tai Xuan Scripture.’
At a certain moment, a rumbling sound directly came from within his body. Ji Die felt a warmth all over, and his aura became even stronger than before, successfully stepping into the Qi Cultivation Second Layer, which he had been unable to Break through to!
Moreover, even after the Breakthrough, this upward trend did not stop. Ji Die didn’t open his eyes and continued to refine the residual medicinal power.
It wasn't until the Spiritual Qi, which was originally the thickness of a finger, expanded several times, slowly growing to the size of a small water channel, that he slowly opened his eyes.
“I’ve finally Broken through to Qi Cultivation Second Layer.” Ji Die’s gaze was clear as he looked ahead.
Originally, his skin was a bit dark, but after the Breakthrough, it gradually became whiter, and he also grew taller again, becoming more resolute and confident!
“Speaking of which, all of this is thanks to that woman.” Remembering that malicious woman, Ji Die sneered.
If she hadn’t arranged for him to be in the Beast Pen, he might not have Broken through so quickly.
Of course, he would never thank her, nor would he become arrogant because of it!
“Qi Cultivation Second Layer is far from the end; I cannot be arrogant. My strength is still insufficient. I don’t know what cultivation level that woman is at, but one day, I will surpass her…” Shaking his head, Ji Die secretly made up his mind, not forgetting who he was just because he had Broken through to Qi Cultivation Second Layer.
He planned to go out and pick some of those fruits, put them into the copper furnace to upgrade them, and improve his cultivation.
No one naturally paid attention to this action; these fruits grew extremely fast and were abundant throughout the garden.
However, Ji Die didn’t pick too many at once.
On one hand, picking too many wouldn’t be used up in a short time, and on the other hand, he didn't want to arouse suspicion.
Although no one would suspect anything, being cautious was always beneficial.
Soon, taking advantage of the quiet of the night, Ji Die put all the picked fruits into the copper furnace. After enhancement, he obtained a total of fifteen spirit-boosting fruits.
“Fifteen!” Ji Die’s breathing quickened.
During the day, Luo Qiang obtained one spirit-boosting fruit, and so many Disciples envied him.
If his fifteen spirit-boosting fruits were to get out, it would likely attract countless people’s jealousy.
However, Ji Die naturally wouldn't foolishly expose this matter.
His parents died early, and he grew up alone, so his mind was extremely mature; otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died.
Putting the extra spirit-boosting fruits into his Storage Pouch, Ji Die picked up one spirit-boosting fruit and began to munch on it.
According to the records in that booklet, the Spiritual Qi required to Break through to Lianqi Stage Three was several times that of Qi Cultivation Second Layer.
But Ji Die had the spirit-boosting fruit, so his Cultivation was naturally extremely fast. After consuming about ten of them, a sudden boom sounded within his body.
His cultivation, which had only recently Broken through to Qi Cultivation Second Layer, actually Broke through again,
Stepping into Lianqi Stage Three!
The Spiritual Qi within his body had also reached the size of a small ditch!
If this speed were to spread, it would likely shock countless people!
After all, his Cultivation time was only less than half a month!
“Lianqi Stage Three.” Ji Die didn’t feel much about this and continued to consume the remaining five spirit-boosting fruits. The Spiritual Qi, which was the size of a small ditch, slowly approached the scale of a small stream.
The next day, Ji Die carried a basket of fruits and walked into the shed, deep in thought the whole way.
“I wonder if it’s my illusion,”
“The cultivation enhanced by that spirit-boosting fruit seems to have weakened a lot.” Ji Die frowned, pondering the reason.
As he ate more and more spirit-boosting fruits, he found that the cultivation he gained began to continuously weaken.
“I heard before that if it’s just a minor illness, it’s best not to take medicine. On one hand, all medicine has side effects, and on the other hand, if you take too much medicine, your body will gradually develop resistance. Could it be the same with this fruit?” Ji Die pondered deeply, feeling that his guess was probably very close to the truth, yet he was powerless.
After all, these were irresistible factors.
“Never mind, if it weakens, then it weakens. Anyway, I have so many fruits!” Ji Die smiled magnanimously, not worrying too much about it, and soon arrived at cubicle number eleven.
Ji Die, as usual, poured the fruits in and then looked at the big fellow inside, no longer as timid as he was at the beginning.
“This black snake’s cultivation seems to be only Qi Training stage 3 peak. I am also Lianqi Stage Three, so even if I can’t defeat it yet, it’s not as dangerous.” Seeing its arrogant demeanor, not putting him in its eyes, Ji Die didn’t get angry.
He rolled his eyes, confirmed that no one was in the shed, then took out a spirit-boosting fruit that had been put into the copper furnace from his Storage Pouch. After a slight hesitation, he directly threw it next to the black snake.
Ever since he discovered so many spirit-boosting fruits that could enhance cultivation here, he no longer wanted to leave this place.
So, naturally, he still had to get along with this big fellow, lest it bite him when he went in to clean the cubicle and take a bath!
But Ji Die wasn’t entirely sure if the black snake would be interested in this fruit.
Fortunately, this worry was somewhat unnecessary. The black snake seemed to sense something and hesitantly opened its eyes, moving its large head towards the enhanced spirit-boosting fruit.
The next moment, it swallowed it whole, a satisfied expression appearing in its eyes!
“It worked!”
