1929 Rapid Breakthrough (1/2)
Qingfeng Li gazed ahead toward Xue Lin with eyes filled with admiration. Ever since my wife started practicing the Phoenix Immortal Chant, he thought to himself, she's been progressing extremely quickly. In just the blink of an eye, she's already broken through to the first level of the spirit monarch realm.
All the while that Qingfeng Li was thinking to himself, the spirit energy within Xue Lin grew at an astonishing rate. Within a one-kilometer radius, massive amounts of essence qi and spirit qi gathered toward her body. Amazingly, Xue Lin was drawing all of the energy from the surrounding area toward herself. However, it was still not enough.
Qingfeng Li knew that, at this moment, Xue Lin had only just begun practicing the First Verse of the Phoenix Immortal Chant. She needed a massive quantity of spirit qi from the heavens and earth in order to sustain her.
The spirit qi inside Sky Rat City was rather thin. It wasn't enough to support her through the First Verse.
Qingfeng Li didn't hesitate. He took out the interspatial rings that had belonged to the Wind Eagle Dynasty Monarch and Sword Monarch. Within, there were more than ten thousand vitality stones and valuable elixirs.
These vitality stones contained a large amount of vital essence and spirituality. With the force of a thought, Qingfeng Li removed all of the more than ten thousand vitality stones, spirit herbs, and elixirs from the two interspatial rings and placed them all before Xue Lin. He indicated to her that she should absorb these with her Phoenix Immortal Chant.
Xue Lin had just awakened her Ice Phoenix Bloodline. Compared to the one part in ten thousand before, it was now ten times stronger. Within her body, there appeared a phantom of the Ice Phoenix Bloodline the size of a pinpoint. Although it was small, it still consumed a massive amount of spirit energy.
Qingfeng Li had taken out over ten thousand vitality stones, and they were absorbed by Xue Lin in a blink of the eye. The vitality stones fell apart into a pile of dust, all the spirit energy within gone.
As for the spirit herbs, they, too, withered into dried twigs. All the spiritual and medicinal energy within had been taken into Xue Lin's body and absorbed by her.
Within Xue Lin's body, her spirit nucleus and Ice Phoenix Bloodline had absorbed a massive amount of vitality stones, spirit herbs, and elixirs, undergoing a rapid change. The violet spirit nucleus began to spin, like a tornado, it twirled around and around.
After a few dozen revolutions, two marks formed upon its surface. However, having formed the two marks, the violet spirit nucleus still seemed dissatisfied. It continued to devour the spiritual energy from the spirit herbs and vitality stones until a third mark had formed.
After the formation of the third mark, the spirit nucleus continued to absorb the spirit energy and medicinal qualities of the spirit herbs. Finally, there were four marks.
Four marks, this symbolized that she had reached the Spirit monarch realm's Fourth Level.
Xue Lin's rapid rate of progression startled Qingfeng Li. It had to be said that even Qingfeng Li's own rate of progression, fast as it was, hadn't been like Xue Lin's. She had broken through four small realms in the blink of an eye.
When Xue Lin's power broke through to the Spirit monarch realm Fourth level, she finally stopped. It wasn't that she was unable to continue breaking through, but rather that there wasn't enough spirit energy to sustain her progression.
All of the vitality stones, spirit herbs, and elixirs had been completely used up. There wasn't even a scrap of them left. In addition, all of the spirit qi in the surrounding air for a thousand kilometers around had been absorbed by her.
As for the spirit qi from further away, Xue Lin didn't have the power to influence it yet. Besides, within the Mysterious Sun Realm, there was a suppressive force working against her.
Xue Lin opened her eyes, slowly. In her left eye, there was a sun, in her right a moon. The sun and moon revolved within. They represented yin and yang, sun and moon, heaven and earth, the Universe itself, and black and white.
Qingfeng Li's power was at the Seventh level of the Spirit monarch realm. Although he was more powerful than Xue Lin at the moment, he still felt a chill run down his spine when he looked at her. This was the power of suppression from her bloodline.
If Qingfeng Li could fully awaken his own bloodline, then he could withstand the pressure from the Ice Phoenix Bloodline. Otherwise, like any other self-cultivator, he would feel fear under the suppression of a godly beast.
