Chapter 57: Origin-Breaking Pill

Moon Cold Peak.

In the small courtyard with the thatched cottage at the peak, Yue Qingshuang landed with Lu Changfeng.

"Changfeng!"

Her expression was calm as she spoke indifferently:

"Before heading to the Saint Origin Sect, you could have already advanced to the Yuan Dan realm, couldn't you?"

"Yes!"

Lu Changfeng replied calmly.

His cultivation had long since stabilized in the Zhou Tian realm!

It was only to polish his Dao foundation that he had continuously suppressed his cultivation and held back from breaking through.

None of this could escape Yue Qingshuang's eyes.

"Now I shall guard you as you make your breakthrough!"

Yue Qingshuang nodded slightly, showing no surprise as she said:

"Since you have already reached the Yuan Dan realm, it is naturally time to thoroughly consolidate your Spiritual Aperture Technique!"

Hearing this, Lu Changfeng was slightly startled, then looked at her with curiosity and asked, "Master!"

"Don't I already have my spiritual apertures?"

"Could it be that the one you gave me was fake?"

Yue Qingshuang waved her hand and spoke apathetically:

"No!"

"You still haven't fully comprehended the true essence of the Spiritual Aperture Technique!"

"Do you know what the ultimate purpose of this Spiritual Aperture Technique is?"

"To increase the amount of spiritual Qi within the body?"

Lu Changfeng asked, looking puzzled.

Yue Qingshuang nodded slightly and said:

"Correct!"

"A person's Yuan Dan is closely related to their innate talent and the foundation of their cultivation!"

"Yet among all living beings, their Yuan Dan are actually quite similar."

"Have you seen just how large Lu Tianyun's Yuan Dan is?"

Hearing this, Lu Changfeng nodded slightly.

He had indeed noticed that Lu Tianyun's Yuan Dan was several times more powerful than that of ordinary cultivators!

The Yuan Dan was the core of a cultivator.

The more powerful the Yuan Dan, the greater the power of that cultivator naturally would be!

This was also the reason why the people of the Saint Origin Sect bestowed the identity of the Saint Origin Son upon Lu Tianyun at this very moment!

Because as long as he did not suffer an untimely death, he would at the very least become a cultivator of the True Spirit realm in the future!

"The most important aspect of the Spiritual Aperture Technique is not complete once you form a few acupoints within your body!"

"It is meant to make your Yuan Dan far more bountiful, and even surpass the Yuan Dan of others!"

Yue Qingshuang spoke calmly.

Lu Changfeng nodded slightly and said:

"I understand, Master!"

"Then let us begin now!"

Yue Qingshuang nodded slightly, her expression turning hesitant.

She took a deep breath and asked:

"What grade is the cultivation technique you are currently practicing?"

"If your technique is too weak, this matter cannot be accomplished!"

Hearing this, Lu Changfeng's expression flickered.

He had not told Yue Qingshuang about the cultivation technique he practiced.

Firstly, they were not well-acquainted before.

Secondly, he felt that a technique like the Dao Ancestor Divine Scripture was of monumental importance, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

Seeing the anxious expression on his face, Yue Qingshuang assumed that the cultivation technique Lu Changfeng practiced was quite trashy.

"How about this!"

"I do not have any other techniques on me either! You may practice the technique that I currently practice!"

"But I must warn you, you must never display this technique in front of outsiders!"

"Otherwise, it will bring endless trouble!"

Looking at Yue Qingshuang's serious expression, a warm feeling welled up in Lu Changfeng's heart.

By now, he fully understood.

Yue Qingshuang intended to pass down her own cultivation technique for him to practice.

Such a matter would be completely normal in any ordinary master-disciple relationship.

Yet it was different when it came to Yue Qingshuang!

Because her family background was extremely mysterious, and from the reaction of the Saint Origin Sect's Master, it was clear that the Yue family's influence was vast—so much so that even the Sect Master did not dare to offend them lightly.

Would the members of the Yue family truly be willing to let such a technique leak to outsiders?

That was why Yue Qingshuang was so anxious.

Lu Changfeng took a deep breath and said:

"Master!"

"Actually, there is something I haven't told you!"

"By chance, I once picked up a Heaven-grade cultivation technique!"

"Therefore, I feel I have no need to change my cultivation technique!"

Hearing this, Yue Qingshuang was momentarily stunned before nodding slightly.

She did not proactively ask how he had obtained this technique, as everyone had their own secrets!

"Very well! The reason I was so hesitant was simply because I didn't know whether you practicing my technique would be a blessing or a curse!"

"Since your own technique is of Heaven-grade, there is no need for us to replace it."

Yue Qingshuang nodded slightly and spoke with indifference.

"Understood!"

Lu Changfeng nodded slightly and said:

"Then this disciple shall begin attempting to break through my cultivation!"

Yue Qingshuang smiled faintly and said, "Proceed!"

"Later, if you sense my spiritual Qi, do not resist!"

The next moment.

Lu Changfeng closed his eyes slightly, and streams of spiritual Qi circulated through his body in complete cycles.

Immediately following that.

The spiritual Qi around him began to tremble, surging madly into his body in a relentless onslaught.

Yue Qingshuang sensed the changes in her surroundings.

With a wave of her hand, an exquisite isolation array completely enveloped the thatched cottage.

Furthermore.

Guided by Yue Qingshuang's spiritual Qi, torrents of spiritual Qi rushed into Lu Changfeng's body as if they had found a breached floodgate.

Hum—!

The spiritual Qi between heaven and earth grew increasingly dense, with wisps of spiritual mist drifting about the ground.

Shortly after.

The Dao Ancestor Divine Scripture circulated frantically, beginning to absorb and contain all of this spiritual Qi.

Crack, crack—!

A faint shattering sound echoed through the courtyard.

Lu Changfeng's body shuddered violently, and the sound of breaking barriers growing louder gradually emanated from within him.

Rumble!

His aura began to surge drastically once more.

Countless strands of spiritual Qi instantly transformed into ribbons of energy, being violently pulled and torn apart by Lu Changfeng.

Directly following that.

"Ugh!"

Lu Changfeng furrowed his brows tightly as he felt his spiritual apertures gradually shrinking, while the power contained within them seemed to wander through his meridians, converging toward his Dantian.

"To absorb spiritual Qi at such a rapid pace?"

"This technique is likely even higher than the Heaven-grade!!"

Yue Qingshuang nodded slightly, showing no trace of astonishment.

As time passed, the surrounding spiritual Qi seemed to have grown sparse.

Yet Lu Changfeng's aura became increasingly solid and condensed.

"Good thing I was prepared!"

Yue Qingshuang nodded slightly, watching Lu Changfeng, whose brows were furrowed due to the thinning spiritual Qi.

With a flick of her finger, a layer of array formations instantly lit up around the thatched cottage.

The moment this array appeared, it began to operate with a roaring momentum.

Streams of spiritual Qi were captured as if by giant pincers and forcefully funneled into Lu Changfeng's body.

Boom!

Immediately afterward.

From the side room of the thatched cottage, blocks of top-grade spirit stones flew out. A quick glance revealed there were already tens of thousands of them.

The next instant.

Crack!

These spirit stones were slowly absorbed, and numerous spirit stones began to turn a dull, ash-black color!

"This..."

Watching this scene, Yue Qingshuang could not help but feel a startle in her heart.

The arrays and spirit stones she had deployed, while sufficient to quench Lu Changfeng's thirst, were far from enough for his actual consumption.

"Very well!"

Yue Qingshuang nodded slightly and said, "I'd like to see!"

"Just what kind of Yuan Dan you will be able to forge!!"
