40: Li Yawei breaks through!

“Alas! Sixth Brother’s Cultivation has advanced quite a bit! The gap between him and me is truly growing larger and larger!”

He shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

The Cultivator wearing a snake-faced mask transformed into a wisp of green smoke and vanished from the spot!

...

At this moment, Wei Zhou was holding Li Yawei’s hand and running at full speed!

When the Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator wearing a snake-faced mask cast his Divine Sense from afar towards him, he had already sensed it.

He had also released his own Divine Sense, comparable to Foundation Establishment Initial Stage, to collide with the other party’s Divine Sense!

However, his Divine Sense directly melted away upon encountering the other party’s Divine Sense!

Wei Zhou immediately realized that the person’s Divine Sense Realm was immeasurably superior to his own!

He then pulled Li Yawei and began a desperate sprint!

However, that person’s Divine Sense only swept over him a few times before slowly retreating!

Perhaps it was just an unintentional glance!

But Wei Zhou dared not gamble; he could only pull Li Yawei’s hand, consume Medicinal Pills, and run desperately!

Finally, after a few incense sticks’ time, they arrived outside the Fengyu Market.

Wei Zhou held Li Yawei’s hand and quickly entered the market, hurrying towards his own residence!

Upon reaching his residence, Wei Zhou took out his token, and he and Li Yawei smoothly entered the courtyard!

After reaching the courtyard, Wei Zhou suddenly collapsed to the ground, letting out a long breath!

He said with lingering fear, “Fortunately, I ran fast! Plus, that Foundation Establishment Grand Cultivator didn’t pursue me!”

“If not for that, I would absolutely not have escaped from that Foundation Establishment Grand Cultivator’s grasp!”

Wei Zhou patted his chest, still feeling a lingering fear about what had just happened.

He would never forget that just now, facing the owner of that Divine Sense, he felt like an ant!

The other party only needed to move a finger to annihilate him!

Afterward, Wei Zhou stopped thinking, closed his eyes, and sat cross-legged, beginning to recover the Spiritual Energy consumed by his rapid running and the medicinal properties of the Medicinal Pills absorbed along the way!

The medicinal properties of the Medicinal Pills he had consumed along the way had not yet been fully absorbed by him!

Once fully absorbed, his consumed Spiritual Energy should be recovered!

He quickly cast aside the distracting thoughts in his mind and focused on circulating his Cultivation Technique!

He absorbed the Spiritual Qi freely floating between heaven and earth and the residual medicinal power within his body!

...

After three or four incense sticks’ time,

Wei Zhou slowly opened his eyes and stood up!

Feeling the replenished Magical Power within his body, he stepped towards his bedroom!

Li Yawei, who was beside Wei Zhou, had returned to her room much earlier after entering the residence!

She began to prepare for her Breakthrough to Qi Refining Late Stage, which is Qi Refinement Stage Layer 7!

...

Wei Zhou walked through several corridors and arrived at the door of his bedroom!

He gently pushed open the wooden door and stepped inside!

He turned and closed the wooden door, then slowly walked to the side of the bed!

He took off his shoes and lay spread-eagled on the bed!

He looked up at the ceiling and murmured, “So comfortable~!”

Afterward, Wei Zhou cast aside his distracting thoughts and fell into a deep sleep!

A faint smile lingered on the corner of his mouth!

...

Wei Zhou was woken up in the middle of the night!

He rubbed his blurry eyes, extended his Divine Sense, and probed outside the courtyard!

He was surprised to find that the Spiritual Qi throughout the entire courtyard was converging towards one room!

That room was precisely Li Yawei’s room!

Wei Zhou increased the coverage of his Divine Sense, enveloping the entire residence within his Divine Sense!

He probed his Divine Sense into Li Yawei’s room!

Inside the room, Li Yawei was sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed!

Her hands were placed on her Dantian in her abdomen, concentrating on gathering the Magical Power within her body into a Magical Power lake!

(In Qi Refining Early Stage, Cultivators condense a hundred wisps of Spiritual Qi within their bodies! Once they reach 100 wisps, it will be refined and compressed into Magical Power!)

(In Qi Refining Middle Stage, the Spiritual Qi within the Cultivator’s body has been completely transformed into Magical Power! On average, one hundred wisps of Spiritual Qi are compressed into one strand of Magical Power!)

(Once a Qi Refining Middle Stage Cultivator has accumulated one hundred strands of Magical Power within their body!)

(They can attempt to Breakthrough to Qi Refining Late Stage! Qi Refining Middle Stage and Qi Refining Late Stage are a watershed!)

(Countless low-level Loose Cultivators are stuck at this Realm, unable to Breakthrough! They end their lives in regret!)

(The so-called Qi Refining Late Stage is to gather the hundred-plus strands of Magical Power within the body into a Magical Power lake!)

(The initial size of the Magical Power lake is determined by a person’s talent!)

(Generally, a Five Spiritual Root Cultivator’s condensed Magical Power lake is only one zhang in size! It’s no different from a small puddle!)

(However, the one-zhang size of a Five Spiritual Root’s Magical Power lake is not absolute!)

(Historically, there have been cases where a Martial Forest Root condensed a Magical Power lake 18 zhang wide! Ultimately, that person even achieved Ascension to the Immortal Realm!)

(This story has inspired countless low-level Martial Forest Root Cultivators!)

(And a Heavenly Spiritual Root Cultivator’s condensed Magical Power lake is a full 10 zhang wide!)

(And this is only the starting point; it can even ultimately reach 18 zhang wide!)

(However, an 18-zhang-wide Magical Power lake is extremely rare in the entire Cultivation world of this continent!)

(One might only be born every ten thousand years!)

(It is rumored that above an 18-zhang-wide Magical Power lake, there is even a 20-zhang one!)

...

Several hours later,

The Spiritual Qi gathered between heaven and earth slowly dissipated again, merging back into heaven and earth!

Li Yawei’s room suddenly erupted with an aura far surpassing Qi Refining Middle Stage!

Li Yawei had indeed entered Qi Refining Late Stage!

A huge surge of joy immediately flooded Li Yawei’s mind, making her feel immensely happy!

She murmured to herself, “19 years old! Qi Refinement Stage Layer 7! This is all thanks to my husband! Without him, there would be no me today!”

Afterward, Li Yawei continued to sit cross-legged with her eyes closed, consolidating her newly broken-through Realm!

On Wei Zhou’s side,

He had already withdrawn his Divine Sense, confirming that his wife had successfully broken through!

He patted his mouth and let out a big yawn!

He lay down on the bed and closed his eyes!

Accompanied by a series of snores, Wei Zhou fell into a deep sleep and entered dreamland!

...

The next day,

A ray of sunlight filtered through the dappled leaves, passing through the window and illuminating Wei Zhou’s bedroom!

Wei Zhou rubbed his eyes, groggily opened them, and turned over!

He was about to fall back asleep!

Wei Zhou, who had just fallen asleep, heard footsteps approaching from outside the courtyard!

Not long after, the footsteps drew closer to Wei Zhou’s door!

“Knock, knock, knock!”

A series of knocks on the door woke Wei Zhou.

Wei Zhou rubbed his eyes, got up, and grumbled, “It’s early in the morning, can’t a person get some decent sleep?!”

“I was woken up last night, and now again today! It’s truly impossible to get a good night’s sleep!”

Grumbling under his breath, Wei Zhou still walked step by step towards the wooden door of his bedroom!

“Creak!”

Wei Zhou reached out and opened the wooden door!

The moment he pushed open the wooden door, a wisp of fragrance passed through the air and entered his nostrils!

Wei Zhou took a few deep breaths, seemingly savoring the fragrance in the air!
