It was early in the morning, and the sky was only faintly lit.
In the mountain behind the Gu Family, a thin and small figure was constantly moving about in the forest, jumping and running like a monkey.
"Hah!"
Gu Xuan's body exploded outwards as he punched out, causing a stone the size of a millstone to explode into pieces.
Amidst the sounds of snatching, a large amount of shattered rocks stabbed into the surrounding trees, sinking a few inches into the ground. As for the rocks that were flying towards Gu Xuan, they crumbled into fine powder after they got within three inches of him.
"I managed to open the seventh Chakra, my fist strength reached a thousand kilograms, hit the stone and turned it into powder, grab onto iron marks, and cultivate a protective film. I am now completely capable of breaking through to the fourth star in Spirit Level, not bad."
Looking at his masterpiece, Gu Xuan nodded his head in satisfaction.
The effect of consuming the Source Spirit Pill and cultivating for half a month was indeed extraordinary. After all, the Source Spirit Pill had already been purified by Yun Xi to be of the highest quality and the effect was not trivial.
"However, this is still far from enough! When I tried to break through to the fourth star Spirit Level in my previous life, I managed to clear ten Chakra s, which was quite a distance away. "
With the breakthrough of the first three stars, every time a Chakra in his body was activated, he would be able to rush to the next realm. But from the fourth star, he could open several more Chakra, and the more Chakra he had, the stronger he would be, and the faster his cultivation.
"Continue to cultivate!"
Gu Xuan gave up on the thought of breaking through immediately, grabbed a large rock and fiercely hammered it at his own chest.
Gu Xuan used several hundred kilograms of strength in every strike, making his vital energy and blood churn, and the pain from his chest tearing apart.
However, Gu Xuan's expression was calm, and did not reveal any abnormality.
To be able to become a member of the continent's genius rankings, talent alone was already not enough. To work hard and meet face to face, one couldn't be missing a single one.
This body tempering method was called the Divine Weapon Formula, it required the cultivator to use their own body as a weapon to help them break through the Chakra and strengthen their body.
When Gu Xuan had cultivated to the peak, he had managed to train his Heavenly And Earthly Treasures into his body.
After striking his chest dozens of times, Gu Xuan threw down the boulder. He still did not use the Strength of Fire to block, and used all his strength to smash into a tree at the side.
In addition to the chest, the body had to be tempered in order to transform into a divine weapon.
Yun Xi floated above Gu Xuan and wandered around leisurely. After coming to an agreement with Gu Xuan, shsheobtained a certain degree of freedom, allowing him to leave her dantian while she cultivated. In exchange, he would need to help Gu Xuan purify the medicinal pellets.
"Is there any point in cultivating like this …?"
Yun Xi looked at Gu Xuan who was frantically cultivating, and muttered to herself. So what if her body had suffered so much, could she still cultivate to the same level as her previous master, the Pill Emperor Gu Xuan?
However, such masochistic training suits this perverted character. It even dares to change me into … Hmph, just kill him.
Eight days later, the eighth Chakra opened.
Thirteen days later, the ninth Chakra appeared.
After opening the ninth Chakra, Gu Xuan was already unable to suppress his own realm and broke through to the fourth star Spirit Level.
"Only nine, one less than in my previous life." Gu Xuan frowned, the difference between his first attempt and his previous one, this was not a good omen.
"Oi, damn pervert, the pill you used was consumed in ten days. You don't even know what effects it would have without the help of the medicinal effects. How many people did you connect to, can you let me see?" Yun Xi did not let go of this chance, and ridiculed her.
"Of course I know." Gu Xuan activated his Strength of Fire, and nine whirlpools instantly appeared around his body as he started to devour the surrounding Elemental Energy of Heaven And Earth.
"Nine Chakra s, how is that possible!?" Yun Xi was shocked. Although she did not understand cultivation, she knew how difficult it was to open the Chakra s, for most people to be able to reach the fourth star Spirit Level, being able to reach the fifth would already be considered good.
If there were enough pills, wouldn't he be able to open eleven or twelve of them? This damn pervert had such high potential?
"Alright, you should go back into my body."
With a wave of Gu Xuan's hand, Yun Xi was returned to the Dantian, and Gu Xuan also started to frown as she thought about it.
If this were to continue, even after cultivating to the ninth star of the Spirit Level, he would only be able to open forty Chakra s at most, which was completely incomparable to the forty-eight in his previous life.
Every time a Chakra was opened, the speed at which the Elemental Energy of Heaven And Earth was being absorbed would increase. This body's aptitude was off from the start, so if the Chakra was cleared slightly less, the cultivation speed would probably not even be 10% of what it was in his previous life.
His cultivation speed could not keep up. With the Heaven Flame as his source, not only would he not have an advantage, he would also become a burden.
Originally, when one became a Martial Cultivator, their family would need to subsidize it a little, but the distribution of resources was controlled by Gu Duanchen and the Great Clan Elder. For the time being, wanting to obtain the pellets from the hands of these two was nothing more than a fantasy.
"Forget it, I'll go find father for help again."
Gu Xuan thought helplessly. Previously, his father had pledged all of his mother's belongings away in order to exchange for that Source Spirit Pill. Now, Gu Xuan was truly embarrassed to open his mouth.
However, the basics of cultivation were not child's play. Once he became a powerful expert, he would owe his father ten or even a hundred times the honor.
After all, with his abilities, it would only take him a split-second to reach this level.
After returning home, Gu Xuan went to his father's room.
"Xuan Er, how has your cultivation been this month? Have you started training the fourth Chakra?" Gu Tianmo stopped cultivating, glanced at Gu Xuan, and asked with concern.
"This... "Seems like he's started training now." Gu Xuan spread his hands.
"Is it?" How can there be such a concept? To not be able to clear it is to not be able to open it, how ambitious! " Gu Tianmo's face darkened, and he grabbed onto Gu Xuan's hand.
"Let me see how good your cultivation is. I'll personally guide you, but if you don't want me to, you have to go outside. If the results are too poor, let's see if I …"
Gu Tianmo examined Gu Xuan's realm and the words came to a halt. His white brows twitched and he stood up abruptly: "What's going on, how many Chakra s did you open?"
"About seven?" Gu Xuan controlled one Chakra after another to appear on each of the seven.
"Hiss." Gu Tianmo sucked in a breath of cold air, his ankle trembled and he nearly fell down. He carefully scanned Gu Xuan's seven Chakra s and laughed bitterly: "You little bastard, are you still a normal person? "I've asked you how your cultivation is, and you intentionally hid it from me. You must scare your father to death to be satisfied with it?"
Gu Xuan shrugged his hands helplessly. Previously, you asked whether or not you were cultivating the fourth Chakra.
Fortunately, he had only displayed seven. If his father knew that he had reached the ninth level, what kind of expression would he have?
