Chapter 221 First Collection (2/2)

Yaoyao chose to completely ignore these gazes. With Tuntun again in her arms, she looked towards Zhou Yuan’s cultivation platform, and a soft cry of surprise suddenly sounded from her red lips, “Oh?”

She had sensed some strange activity from Zhou Yuan’s Spirit.

“This … his Spirit has entered the Alpha-Origin Heaven? Has he finally stepped into the first layer Alpha-Origin stage?” Yaoyao was somewhat surprised.

Bzz!

The moment Yaoyao’s words faded, a strange noise suddenly sounded in the sky. Numerous disciples lifted their heads in bewilderment, only to watch in astonishment as strands of world essence Qi began hanging down from high up the sky like a tassel.

“This is… Alpha-Origin Qi?!”

The sight of the world essence Qi caused numerous disciples to cry out in surprise.

“Someone has just stepped into the Alpha-Origin stage?” Everyone was somewhat stunned. The scene before their eyes was very familiar; it occured when someone reached the Alpha-Origin stage, linked to the Alpha-Origin Heaven and brought back Alpha-Origin Qi.

In other words, someone had ascended to the Alpha-Origin stage. However, there was someone who had yet to reach the Alpha-Origin stage amongst them?

“It’s Zhou Yuan!” Someone quickly regained his wits. Who else was there who had to reach the Alpha-Origin stage besides Zhou Yuan.

Thus, surprised gaze after gaze was cast in Zhou Yuan’s direction.

Sure enough, they saw that his eyes were still closed, the world essence Qi hanging down from the sky surrounding his body as it streamed in.

“Heh, he’s already caused such a ruckus at the quasi Alpha-Origin stage, wouldn’t that mean he’ll be going to turn the world upside down after he steps in the first layer Alpha-Origin?” Several Shengzhou first class disciples could not help but cheekily joke when they saw this.

In between there words was mockery and arrogance.

One of the first class disciples smiled as he asked Lu Feng, “Lu Feng, when you reached the Alpha-Origin stage, how long did the Alpha-Origin Qi you brought back last?”

Lu Feng’s face was impassive as he answered, “935 breaths.”

This period of time started when the Alpha-Origin Qi first appeared and ended when all of it entered the Qi Dwelling. It would normally be over pretty quickly, and was hence counted in breaths.

When one reached the Heaven Gate stage, the Genesis Qi dashing past the Heaven Gate was measured in feet.

At the Alpha-Origin stage, it was measured based on how much Alpha-Origin Qi was brought back. The more abundant the Alpha-Origin Qi, the longer it lasted.

“Awesome.” Praised the other first class disciples when they heard Lu Feng’s answer as their faces lit up with admiration. “The first time I brought back Alpha-Origin Qi, it only lasted for 400 breaths.”

“Me too.”

“Looks like brother Lu Feng’s Spirit is pretty strong too.”

Lu Feng chuckled softly. “I had a fortunate encounter in the past, and my Spirit just happened to reach the mid Illusory stage when I ascended to the the Alpha-Origin stage.”

“No wonder.” The crowd nodded. Most of them were only at the initial Illusory stage and naturally could not compare to Lu Feng.

“Hehe, I wonder how long the Alpha-Origin Qi Zhou Yuan brought back will last.” They grinned as they looked towards Zhou Yuan as if something amusing was going to happen.

Zhou Yuan’s victory over Han Shan had in a certain manner made the Shengzhou disciples lose face. Hence, they were naturally keen on gloating over him.

While the crowd was whispering, Gu Hongyi also looked over. The first time she had brought back Alpha-Origin Qi, it had lasted a thousand breaths, a record even longer than Lu Feng’s.

Hence, she too was interested to find out what the one who had overwhelmed Han Shan could achieve.

Besides them, even the Qiao Qing and the other non Shengzhou disciples, whom had spoken up for Zhou Yuan earlier, also cast their gazes over.

In mid air, Chen Yuan also turned his attention towards Zhou Yuan.

Under the numerous watching gazes, Zhou Yuan’s eyes remained shut as the world essence Qi continued to descend...

Time swiftly passed breath by breath...
