Chapter 48: Breakthrough! Fourth Level of the Acquired Realm

regret.Me! To die at the hands of a cultivator surrounded by such powerful energy!Boom!Mù Qiú's body transformed into a blood mist, with nothing else remaining besides his storage ring.A cultivator o...I don't know how long I slept, Fang Chen slowly woke up.

The wound-healing elixir has stopped the bleeding from his wounds, but the pain still makes even a slight movement feel like being whipped.

Fortunately, the unyielding spirit kept him going, making things much better for Fang Chen.

He smiled wryly: "If not for my physical body being the Sword Demon's Physique, able to fully absorb the medicinal power of the Healing Pill. And being at the seventh level of the Tempering Body Realm, otherwise, I might have really died at the hands of that Du Tianqiang."

After bandaging his wound, he sat cross-legged on the ground to check his condition.

After checking, he was shocked on the spot!

"Wait! How did my physical body break through to the ninth level of the Tempering Body Realm! What's going on!"

At this moment, his physical body realm had actually broken through while he was in a coma, and his foundation was consolidated, with almost no hollowness!

“This should be due to the Sword Demon's body. Even being injured can temper the physical body, and it also improves the path of the physical body. Furthermore, the speed of improvement is no weaker than swallowing the blood of a Sword Demon!”

"But this is equally dangerous, after all, if you get hurt, there's a high chance of dying on the spot, or giving others an opportunity. Unexpectedly, I turned misfortune into good fortune this time, and my cultivation level has improved quite a bit!"

"If I were to encounter a Seven-Headed Expert again alone, I wouldn't be so embarrassed."

At that thought, Fang Chen's eyes flashed a cold light.

He was not going to just hide until the first exit opened. If they wanted to kill him in this new world, then he would kill them all in this new world!

Ru Mo Dao's Fang Chen, is not kind.

"Let's see what treasures are in Du Tianqiang's storage bag."

He opened the storage bag and reached into it.

Du Tianqiang's magic treasures were much better than those of others, spanning a full three zhang.

There were over three thousand spirit stones alone, and materials, medicinal herbs, etc. were also plentiful, with a total value of over ten thousand.

Among them are many of the second and third ranks, some even incredibly rare.

There are also quite a few medicinal herbs, about five or six bottles.

Healing Pills and Spirit Recovery Pills are top-tier, but what made Fang Chen the happiest was! There were actually two bottles of Spirit Enhancement Pills inside!

If taken all at once, there are no problems breaking through the Western Heavens!

Besides, there are many other treasures. Du Tianqiang's treasured sword is a yellow-grade third-rank magic weapon, very precious.

It's a pity that Fang Chen didn't hone his swordsmanship, otherwise his combat power would have increased again.

As for the rest, there are wolf claws, a shield, and a long needle box.

After experimenting for a while, Fang Chen understood its function.

"This must be used to track my treasure, but it can only give a general direction. That's also why they can't find me."

"Keep it for now, it might be useful later."

He put the sewing needle box into a storage bag.

He continued to check the storage bag for any other good things, and sure enough, he found a delicate jade bottle.

As soon as he opened the jade bottle, a strong fragrance of herbs filled the air! Fang Chen felt his cultivation level subtly increase slightly.

This is!

A gleam flashed in Fang Chen's eyes! He poured the elixir from the jade bottle!

A golden-red pill appeared in Fang Chen's hand, its fragrance intoxicating.

"Third-Rank Spirit Meridian Pill! This is not inferior to the Opening Meridian Heavenly Pill! If I take it now, opening the second meridian would be no problem at all.

"First, I will open my meridian channels and break through to the Western Heavenly Layer. Then, I will cultivate the Fierce Demon Sword Manual with both meridians to break through the Western Layer. My strength will increase exponentially!"

Fang Chen's mouth twitched slightly upward. If he encountered a strong opponent of the seventh level again, he would not only have the power to fight once but many times over.

But he wasn't in a hurry to cultivate, he first sorted things out. He put the useful ones in his own storage pouch and the useless ones in another storage pouch.

Afterwards, he examined the sixth-grade storage bag again, but to his disappointment, this person's assets were not as substantial as the previous one. There were only one or two elixir pills inside.

However, thinking about it, the Six-Headed wasn't as strong as before. It should have just broken through recently, so there were fewer things to enhance its cultivation level.

After tidying up, Fang Chen placed the Lingmai Dan and Tilin Dan in front of him. Then he sat cross-legged, bringing his state to its optimal condition.

After preparing, he swallowed the Lingmai Dan.

At that moment, a surge of powerful energy surged into his body. Under Fang Chen's guidance, it flowed into the meridian that had been opened halfway.

Fang Chen's second meridian is the Heavenly Meridian, which connects the sea of consciousness to the dantian. Its importance is no less than that of the Central Meridian.

It's just that the central meridian is more suitable as the first channel to open, after all, it's the key meridian that dominates the whole body.

If one were to try and open up these meridians, it would be incredibly difficult even if they possessed elixirs like the Lingmai Dan, a divine pill for opening meridians.

At first, it's easy; you can open a path with just one or two. But the difficulty of opening subsequent paths will increase exponentially.

Not only does it require a large amount of acupuncture spirit pills, but the grade also needs to be increasingly higher.

But Fang Chen was different. After being modified by the Sword Demon's blood, it became even more difficult to open up his meridians.

But once activated, its context will be even stronger than others'!

This is also the confidence Fang Chen had after opening up the meridian, that he could fight against a Seventh Heaven cultivator.

Soon, Fang Chen entered into cultivation.

……

Du Tianqiang's corpse had already been torn to shreds by passing monsters. There were more than twenty people here at the moment, including Luo Xiu and Bai Xiangmei.

They recognized him as Du Tianqiang through the token he left behind, but they remained very calm about his death.

"A good-for-nothing, dying at the hands of that bastard. Luo Xiu's face was full of disdain."

Bai Xiangmei also said, "He must have been caught off guard by that bastard and ambushed. He deserved it for even trying to take all the credit."

Luo Xiu nodded without hesitation, and immediately a murderous glint flashed in his eyes: “There are seventeen days left before the exit opens. We must find him and eliminate him within these seventeen days!”

Bai Xiangmei gave a charming smile and said, "Master Luo, please rest assured. I will set up my Bai Die everywhere. As long as he appears, I will be able to sense his location and he will not be able to escape."

Luo Xiu nodded: "In that case, I'll trouble my junior sister then."

……

Three days later.

Fang Chen still sat cross-legged in the cave, spiritual energy swirling around him! His dantian and sea of consciousness flickered with light, like a galaxy coming into view!

Celestial Network Activated!

At the same time, Fang Chen's cultivation realm surged! After breaking through the Xiantian Realm, he continued to ascend, reaching the peak of the Xiantian Realm.

He let out a heavy breath, feeling the shift within him, and the corners of his mouth twitched upwards.

"Finally, I broke through!"

He circulated his internal spiritual energy, the central meridian and celestial meridians swiftly running, gathering a powerful spiritual energy in his hand within the blink of an eye.

Don't be fooled by the idea that simply looking at a pulse can quickly gather spiritual energy. Remember, unleashing powerful abilities requires substantial spiritual power, and the stronger the ability, the more spiritual energy it demands.

Others won't wait for you to slowly gather your spiritual energy and unleash your divine abilities. They will kill you while you are charging up.

Context is also extremely important for improving cultivation and is the key to future achievements.

He stood up, feeling quite satisfied with the changes in his body.

Simply opening the second pathway greatly increased his power.

What disappointed him was that the fifth level of the small tower remained closed.

It seems that Xiao Ta's awakening wasn't just about improving his realm, there were other factors at play as well.

If he guessed correctly, one should need to reach a certain level of personal strength before they can unlock the next higher level.

Thinking this, he didn't think about it anymore.

It's probably time to go. I wonder how hard others have been looking for me.

Fang Chen darted out of the cave and came to the outside.

Along the way, he did encounter others, but these were not pursuing him. They were disciples who were truly running errands for their missions.

Fang Chen did not disturb them, but walked his own way.

He didn't know, though, that as he moved through the dense forest, a white butterfly slowly rose and faded into the air.

"Hmm"

After walking ten miles, Fang Chen came across another group of people.

He didn't want to pay attention and planned to walk around it, but he found that there were acquaintances among them.

"Han Xiangxiang"

Before Fang Chen entered the new world, Han Xiangxiang sent him a voice transmission, stating that she was from the Hong Yun Elder Clan and could help him avoid this danger.

But after he entered, he was immediately ambushed and had no chance to rush to the central area. He never expected to run into... here.

"Who!"

Han Xiangxiang suddenly looked in the direction where Fang Chen was.

Fang Chen was astonished! His whereabouts had been discovered.ese two people was undeniably superb. Even Fang Chen and Yan Qiao Lin, who witnessed everything firsthand, would have believed their words if they hadn't seen the truth.Liu Fu remained silent for a mo...
