Chapter 675 (1/2)
Could it be that… His Immortal Deity Technique was tailored for the sake of Saint Energy?
What a simple, smooth breakthrough of the 29th Death Acupuncture Point! Zhou Weiqing was completely struck dumb by astonishment. After all, his breakthrough of the 28th Death Acupuncture Point that enabled him to enter the seventh jewel level just took place a short, short while ago. I’ve already broken through the 29th Death Acupuncture Point? Other than finding it to be beyond logic and above reason, there were absolutely no other words that Zhou Weiqing’s could use to describe this phenomenon.
It looked like he did not even have to store his energy if he used the Saint Energy to cultivate his Immortal Deity Technique. Even though he had not attempted it yet, he knew that he would need more Saint Energy to break through the next Death Acupuncture Point. Calming the excitement that he felt in wanting to try for the next breakthrough, he gradually ended his cultivation.
At the moment, it was apparent that he could not cultivate continuously to the next breakthrough. Although the Saint Energy in his body was more than enough, he still needed to revive Hui Yao the dragon with Tian’er later. Only God knew how much energy he would need to do that. Even if it was the majestic Saint Energy, the horrifying possibility of it being depleted in the process still exists. In order to ensure there wouldn’t be any failure in the resurrection plan, he needed to conserve the Saint Energy in his body as much as possible so that he could help support Tian’er during the resurrection. As for his own breakthrough, well, what was there to be worried of now that he had made such an astounding discovery? Since he still wanted to go to the Heavenly Snow Mountain, it would be better for him to solve this immediate problem first.
Zhou Weiqing noticed another marvelous discovery. After he used up 300 drops of Saint Energy, it was immediately replenished with Heavenly Energy. Although this Heavenly Energy was not the real Saint Energy, the essence of Saint Energy that was mixed in it was pretty rich. It was obvious that the Heavenly Energy that he had was different from the original Heavenly Energy. Because of the presence of the Saint Energy, he could vaguely feel that if he was to engage in a combat, as long as he did not directly unleash his Saint Energy to cast his techniques, the Heavenly Energy in his body would be almost inexhaustible.
Although his cultivation base was only at the Seventh Jewel, the vast amount of Saint Energy that he possessed had made him much, much stronger than his level. As for his actual combat effectiveness? Well, he himself was unable to answer the question as well.
The dragon was still resting as it would need more time to recover. Zhou Weiqing opened his eyes and called out to Tian’er softly.
Opening her eyes, she saw the hand that he stretched out towards her. Immediately, she understood his thoughts. The two of them held onto each other’s hands and once again, the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool started to swirl again.
At once, strong intense Saint Energy’s ripples spread out from their bodies. Whether it was the dragon or the three Shangguan’s sisters, their bodies trembled subtly as they bathed in the rays of the Saint Energy. Apparently, it was quite a boost to all of them.
When they were not devouring outside matter, Zhou Weiqing and Tian’er used their four great saint attributes to cultivate their Saint Energy. Last time, even if they cultivated one whole day, they could only obtain 10 drops of Saint Energy and that was if there was enough Atmospheric Energy in the air for them to use.
However, this time, after they had activated the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool, joy filled their hearts at once. It was because they had both noticed that even though the overall volume of the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool was not altered at all, it had been solidified many more times than it was previously. The Atmospheric Energy in the Lustre Spatial Realm was madly rushing in into their huge Saint Energy Whirlpool in an extremely exaggerated manner.
Although the energy influx was extremely huge, the pressure was still able to be borne by the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool. At the centre of the whirlpool, droplets of Saint Energy was slowly flowing in. Although the speed was not too fast, it was in some ways much stronger than before. At the very least, it only took 5 breaths for the second drop to regenerate after the first one was done. With such a cultivation speed, they could easily generate 100 drops of Saint Energy in a day, or perhaps more. If they could maintain this cultivation speed in the future, it would be more than enough even if they did not devour any Heavenly beast.
In order not to disturb the other’s cultivation, Zhou Weiqing whispered at Tian’er and told her about the situation of the Immortal Deity Technique cultivation.
The moment she heard his story, Tian’er was completely startled. She glanced up at Zhou Weiqing and after a moment of pondering, she whispered back, “Weiqing, I think you need to continue to cultivate. Duo Si has used up a lot of her power earlier so I think she needs at least 10 days before she could fully recover. Now that we’re able to generate the Saint Energy in such a fast speed, I’m sure it would be more than enough to support your consumption in these 10 days. You can’t simply pass up such a good opportunity! God knows how much Saint Energy we would be left with after we revive that gigantic dragon. You might as well seize this opportunity to push your cultivation base up a notch.”
Zhou Weiqing replied, “Do you sense anything different at all? Like did your cultivation speed improved or something?”
Tian’er shook her head, “Yeah, it’s apparent that my cultivation speed has improved and I could also feel that I would be able to breakthrough very soon but still, mine is not in the same class as your Immortal Deity Technique. If your technique is able to break through the rest of the Death Acupuncture Points, I’m pretty sure that you’d be able to enter the ninth jewel level in no time. At that time, you can also solidify your Saint Energy into the Saint Core Nucleus first. Now, both of our Saint Energy added up together is around 6000 drops and even if that’s not enough, I don’t think you’d be far from achieving that. We could each solidify part of our Saint Energy and help you make your breakthrough. We’re going to face more dangers in the future and in order to reach the Heavenly King level from the upper ninth jewel, your Heavenly Energy would need to go from the 36th level to the 40th level. But at that time, your Immortal Deity Technique would already have reached its maximum ninth jewel so you’d need more time to explore your other options.”
Under Tian’er’s encouragement, Zhou Weiqing finally agreed to the suggestion after thinking about it deeply. However, he would not use all of his Saint Energy up at ago. After discussing with Tian’er, he decided to cultivate and regenerate his Saint Energy at the same time in order to ensure that both of their Saint Energy would never be lower than 2000 droplets.
