[Hmph! Be careful, or they might suck you dry,] Yue Lan’s voice teased lazily, though there was a faint undertone of warning.
“Haha, you don’t need to worry about that,” Shen Yuan replied with a confident smirk. “I’m sure my physique can handle it.”
[…]
He chuckled as she fell silent, shaking his head. “What? Cat got your tongue? Anyway, enough wasting time. I need to push my sixth dantian to the Origin Core Creation Realm.”
He threw around lots of High Grade Spirit Stone to fill the array before settling back onto the meditation mat, he adjusted his posture and took a deep breath.
The air around him shimmered faintly with dense Spiritual Qi, drawn from the Spirit Stones by the gathering arrays beneath him.
Every breath he took pulled in more of the concentrated essence, flooding his meridians with Qi and sending faint ripples through his sixth dantian.
“This will take quite a long while,” he muttered under his breath, his eyes narrowing in focus. “I’m not short on that either way.”
He closed his eyes, and his world narrowed to the flow of Qi within his body.
Each cycle through his meridians enhanced the concentration of Spatial Qi in his sixth Dantian.
The rune within pulsed faintly, rapidly transforming the surging Spiritual Qi into Spatial Qi as his cultivation base began soaring, climbing from the first level of the Body Forging Realm to the Peak Body Forging Realm in a few breaths.
Time passed in silence, each breath drawing more Qi into his body as he also utilized the Qi from the Primordial Yin stored in his Dantian.
The chamber’s energy surged, responding to his relentless pace as he condensed the Spiritual Qi into dense layers within his sixth dantian. Slowly but surely, the cultivation base of his sixth dantian soared toward the Origin Core Creation Realm.
…
[You’re pushing it hard, aren’t you?]
Yue Lan’s voice broke the silence as it had been too long during this round of cultivation.
[You don’t need to rush you know, you are already cultivating way faster than normal cultivators, and with this Dual Cultivation Chamber, you will surpass all of your peers without leaving them any hope for catching up with you.]
“Rushing?” Shen Yuan smirked without opening his eyes. “This is just me being efficient.”
[Efficient, huh? Sure, let’s call it that,]
she teased, though she didn’t press further.
Days turned into weeks as Shen Yuan remained in seclusion, building his foundation while comprehending the mysterious of Space.
The Spatial Qi within him grew denser, sharper, and more refined with each passing day.
The process wasn’t without its struggles—his body occasionally trembled under the strain of handling such volatile Qi, and the spatial waves emanating from his dantian caused subtle distortions in the air around him.
But Shen Yuan remained relentless in his pursuit for power. He drew upon his entire will, channeling Qi with precision and forcing his body to adapt to the rapid changes.
The spatial element was difficult for even his body to handle, which had no prior direct contact with the element of space.
Finally, after weeks of tireless effort, his cultivation began to advance from Peak Inner Sea Realm to Origin Core Creation Realm.
A thunderous wave rumbled through his body as the energy within his sixth dantian solidified further, reaching the same concentration as the Qi within his Main Dantian.
Marking his successful breakthrough to the Origin Core Creation Realm.
His entire body felt lighter, more in tune with the space surrounding him. Even his spatial perception seemed to have reached an entirely new level.
Shen Yuan opened his eyes slowly, and the faint glow of Spatial Qi flickered within them. He flexed his fingers, feeling the Spatial Qi playing on his fingertips. “Origin Core Creation Realm for the Sixth Dantian huh.” He softly murmured, a satisfied smile playing on his lips.
[Good, you finally reached the Origin Core Creation Realm,]
Yue Lan said with a hint of approval in her voice,
[It was much faster than I had expected, I was honestly thinking you might take 3 months, but you managed to did it in under 1 month.]
“Hah, It was nothing much for me,” he replied, slowly standing up and stretching his muscles. His joints cracked as he moved his body, and a faint spatial ripple followed his motion.
“Now comes the fun part, learning the techniques from the Void Transversing Art.” He smirked while saying.
[You don’t wanna rest? Are you sure? It was one of your longest seclusion after all. Well that’s typical of you.]
She sighed, though there was no real disapproval in her voice.
[Let’s see how much you can push yourself during this training session.]
“Hah, why rest when you can master a Spatial Technique in that time?” he replied with a smirk on his face, settling back onto the mat.
Shen Yuan calmed his breathing. His mind delved into the knowledge etched into the Void Transversing Manual, focusing on the first technique: Void Steps.
“This should be easy enough,” he muttered, a confident smirk playing on his lips.
He envisioned the principles behind the technique, imagining the space around him bending and folding, creating a temporary bridge to his destination.
The first attempt was far from graceful. Shen Yuan gathered a thin thread of Spatial Qi, aiming to shift his position to a point a few meters ahead.
He felt the space tremble under his will, but instead of smoothly transitioning, his body jerked forward awkwardly, stopping just short of his target.
[Hahaha! That was smooth. You looked like a drunk bird trying to fly,] Yue Lan teased, her laughter echoing in his mind.
“Tsk, my spatial talent is not that high and it was my first try,” Shen Yuan shot back, focusing more intently on the surrounding space.
He adjusted the flow of the Qi in his meridians. This time, he focused on compressing the space rather than forcing it to bend. Enjoy exclusive adventures from empire
On the second attempt, he felt the space around him stabilize.
The air rippled faintly, and in the blink of an eye, he moved forward, appearing precisely at his target location. Without making a single bit of sound, no unnecessary energy was wasted.
“Perfect,” he muttered, a smug grin pasted on his face.
[Truly Impressive.]
Yue Lan said, though her tone still carried a hint of amusement.
[At least now you don’t look like a sad drunk bird.]
He decided to ignore her, diving back into practicing the technique over and over again.
Over the next few weeks, his mastery grew. And after some time, he could use Void Steps seamlessly, moving across 2 meters of distance with precision and speed. freewebnvel.com
“Hmm… The technique is good but the range is far too limited for me. I need to increase my mastery over space to increase the limit on the distance.” He muttered to himself as he realized what he was missing.
But he didn’t let this stop him as he had more technique to learn, and the second technique he decided on was the Spatial Distortion.
This technique was more intricate—it required him to shift slightly out of sync with normal space, creating a state of semi-intangibility.
