Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 178: Is an apology useful?
With the help of the Soul Devouring Divine Ability, Gu Xiaoxing absorbed spiritual energy at a speed that was simply astonishingly fast. Especially with the presence of a source in the late Jindan stage for Gu Xiaoxing to absorb, before long, the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth Qi seas appeared one after another.
An ordinary cultivator only has one Qi Sea during the Qi Condensation stage, but at this moment, there are a total of six Qi Seas in the upper and lower Dantian inside Gu Xiaoxing's body. Each Qi Sea is equivalent to a Qi Condensation Great Perfection cultivation level, and the Qi Condensation Great Perfection is supported by the spiritual power of the Jindan Realm. Its scale looks huge!
With each additional layer of Qi Sea, Gu Xiaoxing's Dantian becomes thicker. Although this is not foundation building, Gu Xiaoxing has a feeling that he is building a foundation. In fact, the principles are almost the same. In some ways, this is far better than ordinary foundation building!
When the seventh, eighth, and even the ninth Qi Sea appeared, Gu Xiaoxing's Dantian had turned into a golden color. It looked majestic and solid as a rock. The nine layers of Qi Sea were connected together, just like a huge golden ocean!
Nine Seas Decision, Qi Condensation Chapter, Complete!
This also means that Gu Xiaoxing's lower dantian has truly reached the great perfection of Qi condensation, and no matter how much spiritual energy he absorbs, he cannot integrate it into it. If he wants to continue to improve, he needs to build a foundation!
When Gu Xiaoxing slowly opened his eyes, a handsome pale face appeared before him. When Xin Zhenren slowly opened his eyes, a pure and ruddy face appeared before him. When their eyes met, they were both stunned, and then their faces changed drastically at the same time.
It was still Gu Xiaoxing who reacted faster. He felt that the face in front of him was frightened, and subconsciously slapped him directly on the handsome face of Master Xin.
Master Xin screamed and flew backwards.
"Young Master!"
Qiao Yanran also reacted quickly, and ran over in surprise. After seeing Gu Xiaoxing's bright and clear eyes, she was even more surprised and asked, "Master, have you recovered?"
After seeing Qiao Yanran's face, Gu Xiaoxing finally felt better. It was really too scary to see a man's face right in front of him when he opened his eyes just now. At this moment, he still felt that Qiao Yanran's little face was much prettier, so he smiled and nodded.
"Yeah, everything is fine."
Qiao Yanran immediately smiled happily after hearing this. Although Gu Xiaoxing was no longer blind, she subconsciously went over to help him up.
When the people on the side saw this scene, many of them were shocked and wondered what kind of identity this Lin Xiaochi had to make the Little Wilderness Goddess act like this.
There were even many people who wanted to go up and say hello and make themselves familiar with him. They had all seen the attitude of the Sword Controlling Sect, and knew that this person must be someone extraordinary!
But at this moment, a resentful howl was heard from afar.
"Ah...! Cultivation, my cultivation!!"
Master Xin, who had just gotten up, was looking incredulous, and then pointed at Gu Xiaoxing angrily and said, "You... you dare to absorb my power!?"
Originally, Master Xin should have been in the late Jindan stage, but at this moment, he had actually become in the middle Jindan stage, a whole level down!
Don't underestimate this small realm. For a cultivator in the Jindan stage, if there is no opportunity, it will take at least several years or even decades to break through the bottleneck of a small realm.
Master Xin was only unconscious for a short while before he was demoted to a lower level. Although he had already broken through that bottleneck a long time ago and only needed to accumulate enough cultivation to return to the late Jindan stage soon, this "soon" was only relative, as all that cultivation was the result of his hard work!
At this moment, Master Xin was so angry that he was fuming.
Gu Xiaoxing finally understood where the pure spiritual power he had swallowed came from. It turned out that it was supplied by Master Xin. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He had absorbed his spiritual power and slapped him in return. So he blinked and said awkwardly, "Is it any use if I apologize to you?"
"Apologize?" Master Xin's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Gu Xiaoxing, his eyes already showing a bit of madness. "First you ate my spirit pet, then you attacked and injured me and knocked me unconscious, and finally you used your evil techniques to devour my cultivation. Now you're asking me to apologize?"
Seeing the other party's hatred, Gu Xiaoxing's embarrassment disappeared, and he narrowed his eyes slightly at the other party and said, "So, you still don't want to make peace?"
"Don't even think about it!" Xin Zhenren refused without hesitation, and then looked around, "My fellow Taoists, this person dared to devour people's cultivation in public, how many evil things must he have done in secret? Such an evil monster, are you friends of the righteous path going to let him run rampant in the world?"
As he spoke, Master Xin activated his cultivation, and his voice spread out like a wave, spreading throughout the entire Seventh Ancient Sword, saying: "Imperial Sword Sect, as the leader of the righteous path in Xiaohuang, don't you come out to manage it?"
Although Master Xin fell into a kind of madness due to anger and wanted revenge at all costs, he was not really crazy. He knew that he was no match for his opponent, so he made an impassioned speech, which not only expanded his own camp and returned it to the righteous path, but also put everyone on the path.
Especially the Sword Controlling Sect, which was placed by him at the top of the righteous path. And most importantly, every word that Master Xin said made sense. He immediately sneered in his heart. He couldn't believe that under such circumstances, no one had taken action yet, and the people of the Sword Controlling Sect would still ignore it!
Qiao Yanran's face turned cold and she took a step forward, but Gu Xiaoxing pulled her back, shook his head at her, and then looked at Master Xin with a smile, without saying a word, and just waited together.
It was not that Gu Xiaoxing was soft-hearted, but he thought that since they had formed a feud that could not be reconciled, he would see if anyone else would jump out and kill them all together. However, after waiting for a long time, no one spoke.
For a moment, the scene fell into silence. Master Xin was originally full of malice, but gradually, he found something wrong. Gu Xiaoxing's smile made him feel weird, and after a while, no one present spoke, not even the Sword Controlling Sect made any sound.
“ Hahaha…!” A laugh rang out. It was Gu Jianjiu again. He looked at Master Xin with a half-smile, “You don’t know yet, but actually, when you were unconscious, people from the Sword Controlling Sect had already been here.”
Master Xin was stunned. Has he been here before?
Suddenly, a bad premonition came to his mind. Master Xin had never had any expectations for the people around him. He mainly placed his hopes on the Sword Controlling Sect. After all, this was the Sword Controlling Sect's territory. But he said that people from the Sword Controlling Sect had been here. Since they had been here, why didn't he care?
At this moment, Master Xin even felt it was a bit absurd!
Suddenly, a powerful pressure descended, and everyone looked up, only to find that there was a person standing in the air above them.
The moment he saw this person, Master Xin was immediately overjoyed, secretly thinking that the savior had finally arrived!
