C20 Break Through the Peak
"Lee Wuchen, have you heard of this person before?" The thrush bit his lip and spat out a name.
Qin Yi was confused, "What kind of person is famous?"
"Hidden Dragon Rank rank 187, grandson of Luna Sect Great Elder Lee Wudao. Nineteen years old, at the peak of Ninth Empyrean, he had killed at least three experts who were at the level of Heaven Man Unity. He was known as one of the most talented geniuses of Wu State!"
"What does it have to do with me?" Qin Yi felt that this person was pretty awesome, but there were so many of them.
"It has nothing to do with you, young master, but it is related to my family's young miss."
"What relationship?"
"In order to cure the illness, my family's young miss once followed her aunt to the Luna Sect. That time, she was met by Lee Wuchen. The other party drooled over my family's young miss's beauty and started to tease my family's young miss. Luckily, Elder Chu was there and he didn't let that guy succeed. Originally, my Young Miss thought that this matter would end like this, but who would have known that this fellow actually moved his family members and directly sent someone over to Tianshui City, wanting my Young Miss to marry him! "
"What's wrong with that?" The other party is a genius with a strong background, strong enough to be worthy of your Young Miss, right? "
Qin Yi interjected nonchalantly. "If you have such a person, then why are you pretending? Just agree quickly, why did you have to destroy me!"
Throwing a deep glance at Qin Yi, the man said with a hint of anger, "Young Master Qin has such a good temper. My wife is so magnanimous after being taken advantage of. I'm so, so impressed!"
"Hehe, if the one sitting here isn't you but your young miss, Chu Lingyan, then I will accept your disdain."
Qin Yi twitched his mouth, thinking to himself, don't you know what's going on, stop coming with me. You guys have even asked someone to replace you, why are you still here chatting with me about your temper? If I had a bad temper, I would have forgotten about all these unpleasant things.
He immediately changed the topic and said: "Although that Lee Wuchen is extremely talented, but he is a lustful person. Moreover, he doesn't want to marry my family's young miss as his wife, but wants my family's young miss to be his concubine. How could my family's young miss agree to that?"
"So in order for your clan's Chu Family to avoid Lee Wuchen's proposal and not dare to offend him, you just so happened to want to snatch my Spiritual Seed. This broke Lee Wuchen's train of thought, and then it gave us Qin Family as an explanation, it truly is perfect for both sides! Not bad, not bad! "
Qin Yi said two things that are not bad. He looked at the other side and continued, "You should keep this sort of thing a secret. Why did you spread it out like this? It looks like I am truly a transparent person in the eyes of your Chu Family. Whether I live or die, whether I am happy or angry, I don't care at all! "
I don't know what attitude Chu Family has, but my family's miss is a kind person, and she feels guilty towards this Spiritual Seed incident. If not for my family's miss's strong objection, what awaited Young Master Qin was probably not this benefit exchange, but another way.
Seeing that Qin Yi's expression did not change, he continued: "In order to get the Canghan Fruit, my family's Miss has paid a lot of price that you can't imagine. I feel that my family's Miss has done her best, if it was her family's young lady, the ending would not be like this."
A kind bandit? Then should I thank your young lady? Qin Yi sneered in his heart. Since things had already come to this, what was the point in saying who was right and wrong?
With a person like Lee Wuchen around, Luna Sect was impossible to go. Qin Yi no longer had any interest in talking, he stood up and returned to his room.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
Qin Yi stayed in his room quietly for a month and never left his small yard.
At the same time, the people from the Qin Family also did not come to the courtyard, as if the courtyard did not even exist. If it wasn't for the fact that Peach and Green both went back to the kitchen to get food everyday, Qin Yi felt that he was no longer in Qin Family.
Half a month's time was not a long time for cultivators. Even if they cultivated day and night without interruption and had sufficient cultivation resources, it was impossible for their cultivation to increase by much in such a short period of time.
However, Qin Yi still had another treasure.
Nine Revolutions gold ginseng!
According to the introduction given by Chu Lingyan's maid, the Nine Revolutions gold ginseng was the best medicinal ingredient for the Postnatal stage, which was extremely rare. This ginseng required nine hundred and eighty-one years to fully mature. Every ninety years, it would be a first transition, and every time, it would form a dark red line on the body of the ginseng. After it matured, nine lines would appear on the body of the ginseng.
A mature Nine Revolutions gold ginseng could help a person who had just entered the martial way to directly reach the peak of the Postliminary Realm. In other words, each transition represented that they could break through a Postnatal realm.
Of course, it was basically impossible for Nine Revolutions gold ginseng to appear in its mature stage, at least, it had never appeared in the history of Wu State before.
The one that Qin Yi got was Rank three, and it should be called a Rank three gold ginseng.
Even so, Qin Yi was extremely excited. In just a month or so, he had advanced from the first stage to the third stage. This speed was enough to stun anyone!
If he did not have this gold ginseng, it would probably take him one to two years to reach the Third Stage of the Nascent Realm. And this was with sufficient cultivation resources, otherwise, it would take even longer.
The original owner of this body had trained until he had transmigrated over ten years ago and had just stepped into the second stage of the Houtian realm. Some people had even cultivated to the point of death when they were still lingering around the early Houtian realm, which clearly showed the difficulty of their practice.
After reaching the 3rd stage, Qin Yi's cultivation speed rapidly decreased.
Although he still had a lot of cultivation resources from the Chu Family, these resources were far from being comparable to the Nine Revolutions gold ginseng, and could only allow him to cultivate a little faster than he normally would.
However, the Nine Revolutions gold ginseng was a rare treasure that could not be bought with money. According to Thrust, even if it was their Chu Family, they did not have this kind of treasure, and even gave him one of it was due to the importance he placed on him.
Qin Yi did not reveal the source of the Nine Revolutions gold ginseng, but he was secretly alerted in his heart. He was still unable to figure out the origin of the black clothed man who gave him the Nine Revolutions gold ginseng.
However, Qin Yi knew that his code name of 9528 was definitely not that easy to use. It was hard to say when the other party would come looking for him.
Other than that, there was another thing that made Qin Yi depressed.
After looking up the information in the book, as well as the information he got from the scrawny man's mouth, he finally understood the reason why the Art of Withering Wood was not able to cultivate.
Just as he had guessed, it was the suppression of cultivation techniques.
If one's own cultivation technique was a low level, then it could be changed to a high level cultivation technique. On the other hand, it could not be changed. This was because the low level cultivation technique's internal force would be devoured by the high level cultivation technique's internal force.
In other words, the Peony Heart Meridian's level was higher than the Withering Wood Method, thus he was unable to change to the Withering Wood Method!
Logically speaking, this should not be a big deal since the higher the level of the cultivation technique, the better it was. There was no need to change it to a low-level cultivation technique. But his situation was a bit different. This was because the cultivation method he obtained was incomplete, and he only had the first five levels!
Only the first five levels meant that he could only cultivate to the fifth level of the Postnatal realm, and there were only two ways to improve that. The first was to find a secret technique of a higher level than the Peony Heart Meridian, otherwise he would have to complete the last part of the Peony Heart Meridian.
Neither of these methods was easy.
According to thrush's introduction, this Withered Wood Method was already one of the higher level absolute arts, it had been unintentionally acquired by Chu Lingyan's aunt, Chu Xuemei. It was comparable to Chu Family's legacy, the 'Jade Tide Life Art'.
This kind of absolute arts and mental cultivation methods were usually not passed down to the families of the big powers, it was not something that could be bought with money. Qin Yi reckoned that with his current identity, it would not be easy to find a mental cultivation method of a higher level than Peony Heart Meridian.
This way, he would have to look for a way on the Peony Heart Meridian, and that would also make up for the later parts of his plan.
"We still have to find Lee Meiniang?"
Qin Yi had a bit of a toothache.
When he thought of Li Kui, Lu Zhizhen, Zhang Fei-chuan's body and those ambiguous eyes, he felt a sense of sadness.
Nothing could make him happy. Qin Yi felt like he was reincarnated into a net. As time passed, the net was also tightening. If this went on, he would be strangled to death soon.
Therefore, he had to increase his cultivation as soon as possible and break out of the net!
Holding this sense of urgency, Qin Yi once again immersed himself in cultivating day and night.
After three months, Qin Yi had finally cultivated to the peak of Houtian third stage. Once he broke through again, he would enter the middle Houtian realm.
However, this bottleneck was not that easy to break through. There was a total of Ninth Empyrean in the day after tomorrow, and every three stages was a small one, which was divided into early, middle, and late stages. The corresponding Dantian, middle Dantian, and upper Dantian were respectively.
In other words, the first three stages of cultivation involved the lower dantian, while the fourth stage would require the middle dantian. This was a watershed, and breaking through would be much more difficult.
Since he was temporarily unable to progress in his cultivation, Qin Yi spent most of his time on Self-sacrifice Knife, Three Thunder Slashes and Star Picking Step.
Self-sacrifice Knife was still unable to find the key point, and he was only able to learn the first slash of the Three Thunderclap Slash. The most exciting thing was the Star Picking Step Technique.
According to the four levels of proficiency, proficiency, perfection, and perfection, the Star Picking Step had already been trained to the level of perfection.
Even as a master of the seventh stage, he was still amazed at Qin Yi's speed in training the Star Picking Step. With this footwork, he could even contend with a few moves from her.
