Half a year later.
As a group of cultivators from the Ghost Demon Sect had died, what remained
of their spies considerably calmed down.
For they too feared that the Immortal Mist Sect would act as bait to kill them.
This provided a brief period of stability for Misty Cloud City, which was no longer as chaotic as before.
Perhaps due to this, Zhou Sui led a simple life in peace and stability.
Cultivation, alchemy, cultivation, alchemy.
The rhythm was monotonous, revolving around these two touchpoints. But it
was simple, fulfilling, and comforting.
At this moment, within the courtyard.
With a crunch, a rock was instantly crushed into pieces by Zhou Sui, demonstrating his powerful strength.
“My lord, your strength has really increased. The effect of this Body Tempering
skill is astonishing.”
Xia Jingyan opened her beautiful eyes wide in surprise. After all, her husband’s strength had not been this great before, a change happening within half a year, was indeed beyond belief.
“Haha, all credit to the Body Tempering skill. Besides, haven’t your physical constitutions improved quite a lot too?”
Zhou Sui chuckled proudly.
In this half-year, his physical constitution had progressed the most.
Thanks to the power of the Dragon Elephant Gu, he could strengthen his body once a month, and in half a year, his body had been enhanced six times.
At present, his strength exceeded thirty thousand catties.
Even a Body Cultivator at the peak of Qi Cultivation could not match him based solely on physical constitution.
Continuing like this, perhaps his body would start Foundation Establishment before his cultivation did.
Such was the power of the Dragon Elephant Gu, bringing about earth-shaking changes to the host.
The three wives were the most aware of such change.
After all, Zhou Sui’s constitution and strength were ordinary before.
But now, it was as if he had been tempering his body for decades, the change
was enormous.
They thoroughly experienced the strength of this man.
Of course, thanks to the power of the Obsession Gu, they also reaped full benefits.
They also derived a trace of mysterious blood energy from Zhou Sui. Although the degree of improvement did not compare to Zhou Sui’s, it was an unimaginable benefit for them.
Their physical constitution also improved significantly, and their strength at least exceeded three thousand catties.
Even though they looked like delicate beauties, their strength was astonishing. Undoubtedly, Zhou Sui’s cultivation had improved geometrically. Before, it was his partners who offered him aid.
But now it was Zhou Sui who brought great aid to his three wives.
In fact, the improvement in physical constitution brings many benefits for future Foundation Establishment.
At the very least, they would definitely pass the test of Qi and blood.
-Yes, dual cultivation with my lord has also increased our physical constitution. Even though we have not practiced the Body Tempering skill, the Qi and blood in our bodies is much stronger than half a year ago.”
“If we continue to improve like this, we will definitely pass the first hurdle of
Foundation Establishment.”
Mu Ziyi said excitedly.
She could also feel the vitality of the Qi and blood within her body.
With each dual cultivation session, the power acquired may not be abundant,
but the frequency was high.
Over the long haul, the degree of improvement was indeed staggering.
-My lord, your cultivation must also be close to reaching the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation, right?”
Ji Bingyu asked curiously.
“Yes, I am indeed close to reaching the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation.” Zhou Sui nodded, glancing at his virtual panel; a great transformation had taken place since half a year ago.
[Host: Zhou Sui, Cultivation: Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer (Progress 99%),
Lifespan: 22 (210) years old]
[Aptitude: Seventh grade Spiritual Root (75°/°)]
[Swordsmanship: First-grade Superior (95%)!
[Rune: First-grade Superior (95%)]
[Seventh-Order formation: First-grade Superior (35%) 1
[Pill Master: First-grade Superior (99%)1
[Phantasma Transformation skill: Minor Accomplishment (45%)) [Five Elements Alchemy Technique: Minor Accomplishment (40%)] [Fireball Technique: Grandmaster (3%), Wind Blade Art: Proficient, Golden Light skill: Proficient, Ice Frost skill: Proficient, Spring Wind Rain skill: Proficient, Lightning Summoning skill: Proficient…]
[Obsession Gu: Mid-Class of Second Stage, Clone Gu: First-grade Superior, Wine Bug: First-grade Superior, Gold Eating Bug: First-grade Superior, Book Worm: First-grade Superior, Dream Soul Gu: First-grade Superior, Dragon Elephant Gu: Mid-First-grade.]
Without a doubt, with half a year of dedicated cultivation, his partner’s assistance, the help of pills, and the Dragon Elephant Gu’s assistance, his cultivation had nearly reached the peak of the Seventh Layer of Qi Cultivation. He was just one step away from stepping into the Eighth Layer of Qi Cultivation.
He felt that this was not really a bottleneck for him, and he would be able to break through in no time after a short while.
Of course, aside from the increase in cultivation, the most astounding was the increase in his lifespan.
Thanks to the monthly tempering by the Dragon Elephant Gu, his lifespan limit had increased substantially.
Despite him being only at the Seventh Layer of Qi Cultivation, which normally would allow him to live up to 150 years, his lifespan had reached 210 years.
This was a terrifying length of lifespan.
Even common Foundation Establishment cultivators live up to 250 years at most, yet Zhou Sui could already live up to 210 years, which would surely be envied by many cultivators.
This also proved Zhou Sui’s life stage was beginning to transcend the norm for mortals.
in fact, the lifespan of a normal beast at the Qi Cultivation stage exceeds that of a human at the same stage, with those beasts easily living for several hundred, or even thousands of years.
This is the difference in lifespan among different species.
The higher the tier of the species, the longer is its natural lifespan.
The tempering and baptism of the Dragon Elephant Gu also improved Zhou Sui’s life stage.
That’s how he could easily break the limit of a mortal’s lifespan because he was no longer a mortal.
-Can’t be… If I continue to be tempered by the Dragon Elephant Gu, does it mean that even without advancing in cultivation, I can easily live for several hundreds or even thousands of years?”
Zhou Sui had a peculiar expression on his face.
But it was a natural occurrence, as the monthly tempering always resulted in a tremendous evolution of his strength and body. Even without cultivating, he would still evolve naturally.
It felt as if he was a young dragon gradually growing into a divine dragon.
As time passed, his strength only grew stronger.
“I didn’t expect you to be so close to advancing to the Eighth Layer of Qi Cultivation. If you keep practicing like this, you’ll probably be able to attempt Foundation Establishment before you’re thirty.”
“Such a speed of improvement, even the True Disciples of those sects can’t compete.”
■■Was Immortal Mist Sect blind? How could they not see the potential of such a promising cultivator?”
Ji Bingyu sighed.
She had witnessed Zhou Sui’s growth from the first layer of Qi cultivation all the way to the seventh layer. The speed of his improvement had been incredibly fast.
The growth rate of a Heavenly Spirit Root cultivator probably wouldn’t be much different.
“This is just the first step in a long journey, nothing special. No matter how genius someone is, there are countless examples of them falling midway. We need to remain cautious.”
Zhou Sui remained careful and humble, not showing a trace of arrogance. Even if it was a Heavenly Spirit Root cultivator, there were some who died during the Qi Cultivation Stage. So, a genius who hasn’t realized his full potential means nothing in the end..
