The Three Paths: Refining Essence, Refining Qi, Refining Spirit.

A human body has three hundred and sixty-five large acupoints. Each time an acupoint is refined during body cultivation in the Spirit Realm, the physical body becomes stronger. When all three hundred and sixty-five acupoints are completely refined, one will step into the ultimate state of the Nine Realms of Spirit.

Pei Xuanjing classified different realms based on the number of acupoints refined. Each time a certain number of acupoints is refined, the physical body will undergo a qualitative change.

Pei Xuanjing’s Shenxiao Origin Qi circulates throughout his body, and the acupoints formed within him emit radiance. It can be seen that he has refined eleven acupoints, reaching the limit of the first level of body cultivation in the Spirit Realm.

If he waits to refine the twelfth acupoint, he will step into the second layer of the Spirit Realm. Simultaneously, the twelve acupoints inside his body will be connected, resulting in a qualitative change to his physical body.

However, the present Pei Xuanjing has not yet fully broken through, and cannot know what kind of qualitative change will take place at that time.

The Path of Qi Refinement can be said to have progressed the most. Originally, his Three Paths prioritized the Path of Qi Refinement as the weakest. But in these ten years, the latter has taken the lead. His Shenxiao Origin Qi is continuously refined and compressed while interacting with Heaven and Earth. At this moment, his Shenxiao Origin Qi has experienced three cycles of refinement, reaching the ultimate limit of this world.

It could be said that such progress made Pei Xuanjing couldn’t help but speculate whether this body was the son of the world, otherwise, it wouldn’t have such a talent for the Path of Qi Refinement.

With Pei Xuanjing’s current realm, his Primordial Qi interacting with Heaven and Earth will influence the sky within a radius of a hundred miles. And with the help of the limitless Heavenly Earthly Force, he can also manifest a Magical Domain.

Simultaneously, Pei Xuanjing’s Characteristic Magical Domain is filled with his features. The Magical Domain is the projection of the Great Tao’s foundation he was cultivating. Within this Magical Domain, the Four Seasons and Five Orders illusionarily emerge and fade. The illusions of the flowers are created like this.

In Pei Xuanjing’s mind, if one day he truly reaches the ultimate state, this Magical Domain can materialize from illusion and become a real world.

In the Path of Spirit Refinement, in these ten years, Pei Xuanjing’s Yin Spirit has once again strengthened. He can even sense the impending Yin Shen Thunder Tribulation. His Yin Spirit has solidified and can travel and fly in the night.

Perhaps because this world primarily focuses on Qi cultivation, Pei Xuanjing’s Path of Qi Refinement has reached its peak. It can be said that he only needs the right opportunity to step into the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm and become a powerful figure in the Spirit Realm, a Great Cultivator.

According to the information obtained from the Page of the Netherworld’s Book, each step in Nine Realms of Spirit is a new achievement. Only after stepping into the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm, one can be called a Great Cultivator, a great true person, considered as a pillar of a major force.

If one gets the opportunity to step into the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm, even in the golden age of cultivation, he would be a formidable figure dominating his territory, capable to establish his own school and dominate the Heaven and Earth.

It should be noted that those cultivators in the past mostly mastered one path. While Pei Xuanjing not only stepped into the Spirit Realm with Qi cultivation, but his paths of Refining Essence and Refining Spirit are not far behind either.

“Next, there’s only one thing left.” Pei Xuanjing said lightly.

To enter the Capital and prevent the Empress Dowager from ascending the throne.

Not long ago, the simulator gave a prompt:[At twenty-seven: The emperor dies, the crown prince ascends the throne as the emperor. Two months later, the eager emperor who wanted to expand his grand plan touches the Empress Dowager’s interests and is suppressed. The Empress Dowager, who has been in control of the court for many years, has many supporters and easily takes away the emperor’s power. Somebody advises her to ascend the throne, the Empress Dowager is tempted and wants to ascend the throne.]

His gains in this world are already significant. It can be said that he has accomplished his aspirations, and there is no need to stay in this world. Now only one last task needs to be completed before he can leave satisfactorily.

“I wonder, after ten years, to what extent this Empress Dowager has reached.” Pei Xuanjing was curious.

During their fleeting meeting ten years ago, he felt an unfathomably deep aura from her. Later, Zheng Ye Daoyuan personally verified her extraordinary power, which was not inferior to his.

So after ten years, how much progress has she made?

“Perhaps this is my opportunity.” Pei Xuanjing thought to himself.

His power has already reached a limit and he needs to find an opportunity to breakthrough.

At this moment, he had a feeling that perhaps this trip to the Capital could be his opportunity to breakthrough.

“Sword Saint Pei Min reappears in Yunzhong City.”

When the Sword Saint, who has disappeared for ten years without any news, reappears in everyone’s sight, it almost causes a worldwide shock.

For this powerful figure who was considered unparalleled in combat ten years ago, all the major forces in the world have not decreased their attention towards him in the slightest.

Even though there was no news for ten years, even though there were spies from various factions waiting here in Yunzhong City every day, waiting for his news.

“This one doesn’t appear early or late, but chooses this particular time to appear. It’s really thought-provoking, isn’t it?” Someone thought.

“Haha, this is getting more interesting. After all, this person had a deep relationship with the crown prince back then. Even though he has been absent for these ten years, the crown prince sends people every year to visit him with generous gifts.”

“That’s right, the Yunzhong Pei Family was originally just a branch of the Hedong Pei family, but over the years, their power has grown and several members of the family have risen rapidly, all because of this Sword Saint.”

“A storm is about to come!”

Pei Xuanjing’s reappearance drastically altered the already turbulent situation, making it even more unpredictable.

You should know that the recent death of the previous emperor and the crowning of the new emperor were quite sudden. Not long after the new emperor’s ascension, the Empress Dowager, who had previously announced her retirement from politics, suddenly got involved in court affairs, causing the new emperor to lose face and authority.

Moreover, Superintendent Zheng Ye Daoyuan, who was considered the number one martial artist in the empire, suddenly fell ill and secluded himself. There were rumors that this Empress Dowager was a peerless expert who didn’t care for worldly fame, and that Zheng Ye Daoyuan was injured by her.

All these incidents and rumors reminded many people of an old prophecy that was once widely circulated: “In the declining period of Great Tang, a female warrior will usurp the king.”

This prophecy started to spread widely again especially after the Empress Dowager’s actions seemed to confirm the prophecy, making many royal families feel restless.

And at this moment, the Sword Saint, who had disappeared for ten years, reappeared, inevitably making people speculate.

Yunzhong City, Pei Mansion.

Over the past ten years, the Yunzhong Pei family has essentially become the biggest imperial family in Yunzhong. The original Pei Mansion has also become more magnificent.

However, no matter how much Pei Mansion changes, the original loft in the mansion has remained unchanged.
