Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Chapter 521: Chapter 246: 300 Sword Qi Barriers, the Chain Reaction of Killing the Demon Saint! (Explosive update today, asking for monthly tickets~)_2

[Eighth year, you killed the Damned Dragon and eliminated the greatest threat on the Blue Star.]

[Ninth year, your cultivation level increased to the mid-stage of the Body Integration Realm, sixth layer.]

[With the continuous improvement of your cultivation level, the amount of spiritual energy you required increased even more. Fortunately, you still had millions of drops of Spiritual Liquid, enough to cultivate to the peak of the sixth layer of the Body Integration Realm.]

[But what interested you more was the innate Fuso Divine Tree branch you obtained from True Person Wan Mu.]

[You discovered that this branch contained a trace of the Great Dao of Wood and a trace of the Great Dao of Fire.]

[These two traces of Dao Essence were not fundamental origins but true Dao comprehensions. If you could comprehend them, you would undoubtedly benefit greatly.]

[The Great Dao Principles were not something you could directly comprehend, but you could parse abundant Wood and Fire Origin Power from them, which was also greatly beneficial to you.]

[Thus, over the next two years, apart from cultivation, you also began to attempt to comprehend this seemingly ordinary branch.]

[Eleventh year, two years passed, and your comprehension of the Wood and Fire Origin Power had barely scratched the surface.]

[The origin of wood was full of vitality, which could make your life force more vigorous and speed up the healing of injuries.]

[By frequently comprehending the origin of wood, you could even prolong your life, having a lifespan far exceeding that of an ordinary Body Integration Realm cultivator.]

[The Fire Origin, on the other hand, made your spiritual energy more destructive and notably enhanced the power of your Li Fire Technique.]

[What excited you more was that you seemed to be able to integrate the Wood and Fire Origin Power into the Five Elements Burst Technique, significantly multiplying its power...]

[Unfortunately, before you could fully grasp the Wood and Fire Origin Power, Blood Three descended upon the Blue Star.]

[After much hesitation, you decided that upgrading your Qi Refining Cultivation at this stage was more important than comprehending the two Daos, so you offered the branch and successfully gained the trust and pass of Blood Three.]

Su Xing, upon seeing this, raised his eyebrows.

"Indeed! A Body Integration Realm cultivator can further comprehend the Origin Power..."

"And I possess dual-type spiritual roots of wood and fire; my innate comprehension of the Great Dao of Wood and Fire surpasses that of ordinary cultivators. Perhaps, later on, I can delve deeply into comprehending these two Origin Powers!"

For Su Xing, whether it was the accelerated healing from the Wood Origin or the enhancement of the Li Fire Technique from the Fire Origin, both were crucial.

The Five Elements Spirit Gathering Technique, a divine skill Su Xing had created himself, needed no further elaboration.

"In future simulations, if I need to improve my cultivation level, I will offer the branch and keep the Spirit Vein Dragon..."

"If I need to enhance my comprehension of the Great Dao of Wood and Fire, I will offer the Spirit Vein Dragon and keep the branch..."

Su Xing's mind stirred, gradually grasping the pattern.

His gaze shifted to the simulation panel.

[After Blood Three left, you temporarily stopped comprehending the Wood and Fire Origins and focused fully on increasing your cultivation level and understanding the Body-Protecting Sword Aura.]

[You extracted the Spirit Vein Dragon from the relics of the Wan Mu Sect and introduced it into the Spirit Field Cave, after which the spiritual energy became more abundant, producing low and mid-grade Spiritual Liquid every day.]

[Thirteenth year, after exhausting millions of drops of Spiritual Liquid, your cultivation level rose to the peak of the sixth layer of the Body Integration Realm, just one step away from the later stage.]

[You knew this minor bottleneck would not be easy to breakthrough, so you took your time and focused more on comprehending the Body-Protecting Sword Aura.]

[Thus, two years gently passed by...]

[Fifteenth year, the total number of Sword Qi Barriers you mastered reached one hundred and eighty-six, with your Body-Protecting Sword Aura becoming more powerful than ever.]

[Nowadays, when all one hundred and eighty-six Sword Qi Barriers were activated, their power rivaled the full-force strike of a late Mahayana Realm cultivator.]

[This Sword Qi Barrier had become one of your strongest trump cards...]

[Sixteenth year, you consumed two hundred thousand drops of mid-grade Spiritual Liquid, attempting to break through to the later stage of the Body Integration Realm.]

[You failed the breakthrough, your spiritual power was thrown into chaos, and it took half a year to recover.]

"Huh? I failed to break through..."

Su Xing was taken aback; he had rarely failed in breaking through minor realms.

Yet, the breakthrough from mid to late Body Integration Realm had ended in failure.

"Sigh, it seems that as my cultivation level increases, breaking through bottlenecks becomes increasingly difficult..."

"Having three mutated Heavenly Spirit Roots is beneficial during the Body Integration Realm, but if I step into the Mahayana Realm, I might completely lose any advantage..."

"Even with my Nine Revolution Golden Core and super-class Nascent Soul... there's still a failure rate in breaking through to the late Body Integration Realm, let alone ordinary cultivators..."

Su Xing sighed.

The path of cultivation depended too heavily on aptitude and resources...

For Su Xing to improve his aptitude, he now had only two methods.

The first was to draw a gold-quality spiritual root.

The second was to achieve the second stage of the Heavenly Thunder Physique, further purifying the Thunder Spiritual Root and thus improving the quality of his spiritual roots...

"It was a pity that the Minor Spirit Gathering Array only boosted the speed during normal cultivation; during breakthroughs, it still depended on the quality of the spiritual roots..."

Su Xing slightly shook his head, vaguely guessing that the reason the Five Elements True Master failed to break through to the Body Integration Realm back then was due to an insufficient True Spiritual Root aptitude?

"However, the late Body Integration Realm is merely a minor bottleneck; with a bit of grinding, it should not be a big problem..."

Su Xing calmed his mind and refocused on the simulation panel.

[After failing to break through to the late Body Integration Realm, you were not discouraged but instead paid more attention to polishing your cultivation level.]

[That year, you went to the Slaughter Battlefield in the Beast Taming Realm, killing hundreds of Legendary Demon Beasts and three Demon Emperors.]

[Seventeenth year, the number of Sword Qi Barriers you controlled increased to one hundred ninety-six, with a slight enhancement in power.]

[Eighteenth year, you prepared one hundred thousand drops of mid-grade Spiritual Liquid and millions of drops of low-grade Spiritual Liquid for another breakthrough attempt.]

[This time, you succeeded.]

[Congratulations on reaching the seventh layer of the Body Integration Realm, becoming a late Body Integration Realm cultivator!]

[Nineteenth year, while rummaging through the storage ring of True Person Wan Mu, you inadvertently found a diary.]
