C14 Spirit Qi Level Five

Lei Yang sped along the road, and gradually arrived at an area relatively deep in the surpassing Dragon Mountain Range that he had never stepped into in before. After going over a mountain, a valley appeared in front of Lei Yang, causing his eyes to immediately light up.

It was already the middle of winter, and although the South Vietnam was not cold, the rest of the mountain range still looked desolate.

However, in the valley in front of them, the plants were extremely flourishing. A small stream flowed through the valley, causing it to look full of life, filled with dense Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi. Smoke curled up within the valley, and dense fog rose up. One couldn't help but yearn for it when looking at it, as if it was a paradise.

Lei Yang stopped to observe the terrain for a while, and discovered that the place was surrounded by tall mountain peaks, the surrounding area also appeared to be flat, and accidentally, this valley was well hidden.

If Lei Yang had not been walking aimlessly through the mountain range, he would never have discovered that there was actually such a place hidden.

He cautiously stepped into the valley and followed the stream for about a hundred feet. Suddenly, he discovered that there was a cave on the cliff wall to the right of the valley about ten feet from the ground. The cave entrance was filled with lush vines, making it seem very secretive.

Lei Yang slapped his thigh, and immediately decided, "This place is well hidden, and the Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi are so abundant, it is simply a retreat place for cultivation!

Lei Yang picked up a few stones from the side of the stream and in a flash, he climbed up a big tree at the bottom of the cliff.

He hid on the other side of the tree trunk and threw a few rocks into the cave. After confirming that there was no danger, he carefully climbed to the entrance of the cave through a thick branch on the tree.

The cave was about five zhang deep and three zhang wide. The ground was flat and dry. It was a natural cave formed by a rocky fault. Lei Yang was very satisfied with the place he found, it was truly a suitable place for him to go into closed door cultivation.

He observed the cave for a while, and then observed his surroundings outside of the cave entrance. After that, he found that there was nothing abnormal with the cave entrance, and after he covered up the cave entrance for a while and set up a few simple mechanisms at the cave entrance, it was nightfall outside. Only then did he feel at ease and returned to the cave entrance.

The moment he sat down, he began to think about his future path, and how he should walk it, especially regarding the issue of whether or not he should swallow the pellet.

"Now that I have the pill, should I swallow it to break through to the next stage?" His father had warned him many times, saying that he should try his best not to rely on pills to increase his cultivation, or else there would be repercussions. However, if he didn't take the pill, how could he get out of this predicament?

Lei Yang thought about it, and after thinking about it again and again in his heart, he finally decided to swallow this pill and see if it was effective against him. Compared to the fact that he was about to be demoted to a medicine slave, the aftereffects were nothing. Therefore, he couldn't care less right now.

And today, he had injured Lei Ming. Although he had temporarily concealed his identity, it was not a long-term plan, and there would eventually be a day that he would be exposed. The most important thing was to make himself stronger as soon as possible. Only then would he be able to have a foothold in the clan.

Even though Lei Yang had made a decision in his heart, when he thought about his father's words, he looked at the pill bag as if he was looking at poison. In the end, he gritted his teeth and said as if he was risking everything, "For his parents, and for himself as well. I'll give it my all!"

He took out the pill bag, took out the Spirit Gathering Pills that he had obtained from the Pill Pavilion Elder, Lei Yunzi, and swallowed it all down. His appearance was even worse than a dead child, truly made one not know whether to laugh or cry.

The Spirit Gathering Pills was refined using spirit herbs. When the Spirit Gathering Pills was being refined into a single pill, it would forcefully congeal a large number of Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi into the pill. It was an amazing medicine that helped cultivators at the sixth level of the Spirit Qi and below to break through.

For ordinary families and itinerant cultivators, this kind of pill was simply too hard to obtain, yet Lei Yang was actually swallowing it with such an uncomfortable feeling, who knew what kind of feeling it would have if Lei Yunzi had seen this scene happening.

The Spirit Gathering Pills melted immediately after it entered his mouth. Following the spread of the fragrance, it instantly turned into a wave of dense and pure Spirit Qi, and rushed into his body.

This Spirit Qi was much purer than the Spirit Qi that he had used the bridge of heaven and earth to receive his attacks in the external world. Although it was not comparable to the Spirit Qi that he had purified, the quality was still very good.

"So that's how it is!" The Spirit Gathering Pills had extracted the essence of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi and fused it into the pill. Combined with the pill's own medicinal effects as well as the spiritual herbs, it was simply a solidified Spirit Qi. No wonder the other disciples cultivated so quickly. With such resources, there was no need for him to bitterly absorb the Spirit Qi.

Lei Yang had never taken pills before, now he understood the advantage of having abundant resources.

But how could he have known that the other disciples, even the disciples of the sixth floor of the Spirit Qi, would need to slowly refine the Spirit Qi within the pellet when swallowing it? It was simply impossible for the to be directly led into the Qi Sea like he was supposed to, with this large wave of Spirit Qi, or else it would be pierced through and cause severe backlash. And the reason why Lei Yang was able to do this, was because he was from the Stellar Sea.

As the huge wave of Spirit Qi rushed into the Qi Sea, his cultivation level immediately skyrocketed, directly reaching the middle 30% of the Spirit Qi.

The vortex formed by the golden gas in the center of the Qi Sea started to spin even faster. Although its cultivation had just risen to the middle of the third level of the Spirit Qi, it was falling down at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the end, it fell to the third level of the Spirit Qi and it actually stopped spinning and stabilized at this realm.

The golden aura in the Qi Sea also stopped spinning, as if all the Spirit Qi in the Qi Sea had already met the standards of a Qi Sea, and it was no longer purifying.

Furthermore, following his purification, some of the impurities within the medicinal pellet was immediately expelled out of his body by a strong repulsive force. Unconsciously, it even helped Lei Yang open up a few more bridges of heaven and earth from the inside to the outside, allowing him to understand and integrate his mind with the heaven and earth even more clearly.

"It can actually be like this!" This discovery shocked Lei Yang quite a bit. He didn't have time to think about it now and continued to consume another pill. However, the same thing happened again.

Excited, Lei Yang ignored everything else.

Unexpectedly, without a care, he swallowed all eleven Spirit Gathering Pills in one go. As the pellet transformed into boundless spirit energy, it was directly sent into the Qi Sea and as the Spirit Qi rushed in, the golden ball of gas within the Qi Sea began to spin even faster.

Lei Yang's cultivation had also continued to rise rapidly, until finally, when the center of the Qi Sea's golden aura gradually slowed down, before finally stopping, Lei Yang's cultivation had finally stabilized at the very beginning, the peak of the fourth level of the Spirit Qi.

This time, the cultivation level was stable, because all the Spirit Qi inside the Qi Sea seemed to have fully met the standards of the Star Qi Sea, and the golden gas was no longer purifying the Spirit Qi inside the Qi Sea.

When he looked inside his body, he noticed that when he swallowed the pill a moment ago, there were several other bridges in his body that opened up, bringing the number of bridges in his body to fifty-eight.

It was just that the only regret was that he could not break through the fifth level of the Spirit Qi with this refinement. However, what Lei Yang did not know was that if news of him swallowing the pellet spread, it would definitely cause the eyes of the disciples of the clan to explode.

However, just as he was thinking about it, a tiny drop of golden blood on his forehead suddenly flashed with a weak light that even Lei Yang himself could not detect.

The light directly rushed into the ball of golden gas in the middle of the Qi Sea that had stopped spinning. The golden gas seemed to have received a strong stimulation in an instant, and suddenly started to swirl crazily again.

The rotation speed was much faster than before, and in the blink of an eye, all the Spirit Qi in the Qi Sea started to spin. Outside of his body, in front of the Qi Sea, a huge black hole that was similar to the one in the Qi Sea appeared.

The moment the black hole was formed, an indescribably powerful suction force emanated out from it. The instant the suction force spread out, all of the Spirit Qi in the valley seemed to boil as they charged toward the gigantic black hole in front of the Qi Sea.

Although all of this took time to describe, it all happened in an extremely short period of time. Before Lei Yang could even react to it, his Qi Sea was directly filled to the brim with rushing Spirit Qi.

It was a good thing that the vortex formed by the golden gas was able to devour the Spirit Qi at a much faster rate. As a result, it barely managed to maintain the balance of the Qi Sea, causing it to not explode from the endless influx of giant Spirit Qi.

The black hole rotated even faster, causing more and more Spirit Qi to rush over, and the deeper they gathered, the more solid it became. In the end, it was like a dragon shaped Spirit Qi that was as thick as a person and about ten meters long.

As the dragon-shaped Spirit Qi instantly surged towards Lei Yang's Qi Sea, the vortex formed by the golden gas reached an unprecedented level of rotation, releasing a sound that overflowed into the heavens.

This state lasted for approximately the time it took for an incense stick to burn. As the black hole outside his body disappeared, the revolving speed of the golden energy within the Qi Sea gradually slowed down, and a soft "ka ka" sound suddenly came from within his body. Following this light sound, a completely different feeling from the fourth floor of the Spirit Qi appeared in Lei Yang's heart, and he muttered in his heart: "Fifth floor of the Spirit Qi!"

After about the time it took for an incense stick to burn, when the golden energy inside the Qi Sea had completely stopped spinning, and Lei Yang's cultivation had finally stabilized to the early stage of the 50% effectiveness of the Spirit Qi, a "bo" sound suddenly came out in his mind.

After the light sound, he felt an inexplicable scene appear in his mind. With just a glance, he realized that this was the scenery around the cave he was in. He had his eyes closed, and yet, everything within thirty meters of him was visible to him.

At this point of time, the sky outside the cave was already getting brighter, and with Lei Yang's calmness, a bug 30 feet away from a big tree immediately appeared in his mind.

"Looking around, hearing about ants, could this be the so-called Spiritual Sense?"

He immediately checked his brain and found that there was a small space opened up on his forehead. It was the so-called Sea of Consciousness.

"It is said that a Sea of Consciousness can be born after the fifth level of a Spirit Qi. Looks like this should be my Sea of Consciousness!" Lei Yang continued to unleash it a few more times, and finally discovered the secret of the Spiritual Sense. It could actually sense everything around the body, causing him to immediately become excited.

However, after he opened his Sea of Consciousness, the drop of golden liquid entered his Sea of Consciousness. However, he still did not know about it.

Within the cave, Lei Yang suddenly opened his eyes and two rays of light flashed. Clenching his fists, a powerful aura instantly filled his entire body, and when he looked at his body, he surprisingly discovered that under this kind of impact, the number of bridges in his body had increased by ten, and now, it was already more than sixty-eight.

After he tidied himself up, he stood up and walked out of the cave. He found that his body had become much lighter and nimbler. However, the moment he stood on the tree branch outside the cave, his expression immediately became strange.
