God-Like Extraction - Chapter 126
Chapter 126: Automatic Breakthrough
His skin was red!
His exhaled breaths became arrows!
Eyes shining!
It was not a figurative description. They were really like electric lamps that emitted a blinding light.
It was clear that he could not go out in this state.
Su Jingxing could only apply for three days leave.
In these three days, he tempered his true energy while using the Ghost Python Breath-holding Technique to restrain his uncontrollable aura and vital energy.
Fortunately, the level of the Ghost Python Breath-holding Technique was high enough and its ability was outstanding.
Su Jingxing didn’t sleep or rest. It took him two days and two nights to take care of this.
Now that he had reduced the anomalies in his body due to the rapid growth of his true energy,
Su Jingxing had learned his lesson from advancing rashly this time.
Although he could increase his true energy without limits with the help of the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven, the consequences of doing so too quickly would still be unavoidable.
Smoke rising from the top of his head and his eyes glowing were still fine.
But if his ears, nose and limbs were to become bigger one day that would be a pain in the ass.
At the end of the day, it was safer to proceed step by step in whatever he did.
Excess is just as bad as deficiency. It might cause serious trouble in the future.
Of course, not many people could be like Su Jingxing, stepping into the sixth-grade before the age of sixteen and possessing true energy cultivation of more than 300 years!
Su Jingxing had asked the Ethereal Sword Immortal before.
On the surface, the lifespan of a first-grade powerhouse, the highest level martial artists could reach, was the same as that of ordinary people. They could live up to 120 years at most.
That was two cycles of 60 years.
In the past hundred years, through the use of heavenly treasures and high-level internal exercises, the highest level of true energy cultivation attained was 100 years.
Above that was true essence.
After all, true essence was a qualitative change in true energy, and it was even stronger.
Martial artists in the top ranks paid particular attention to their true essence cultivation.
True energy cultivation was the characteristic of martial artists in the middle ranks.
According to what the Ethereal Sword Immortal had revealed, the true essence cultivation of a first-grade expert was generally around a hundred years too.
300 years, regardless of whether it was true essence or true energy, Su Jingxing was probably the first.
After much effort, Su Jingxing managed to control himself. While he went to work, he continued to temper himself at night.
Repeated tempering of his true energy was like building a foundation, and the stronger the foundation, the better.
Others were anxious to make a breakthrough, but Su Jingxing wasn’t.
Putting aside the mysteries of Nine Steps Trampling Heaven, just the True Energy Cards he extracted were enough for Su Jingxing to feel at ease and slowly strengthen his foundation.
Except.
After Su Jingxing had taken half a month to refine his 300 years of Heaven Trampling True Energy nine times, the true energy in his dantian had automatically turned into mist.
True energy turns into mist, this was a characteristic of fifth-grade!
“I didn’t want to break through, but I did?”
Su Jingxing didn’t know what to say.
He had wanted to wait, but his realm didn’t wait for him and advanced by itself.
“Is it because I have too much true energy?”
After regaining his composure, Su Jingxing thought to himself while accepting the truth.
Since his true energy had turned into mist on its own, it should have nothing to do with the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven he cultivated.
Even if it did, the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven most likely played a very small role.
The real reason was probably due to the excessive true energy that he had accumulated was too much, and exceeded 300 years.
A qualitative change brought about by a complete change in quantity.
To put it simply, Su Jingxing’s sixth-grade foundation couldn’t be any more secure.
So secure that his realm advanced to the next level by itself.
Su Jingxing was relieved after thinking through all these.
With the most stable fifth-grade foundation, it would be much easier to break through to fourth-grade.
Of course, it would be best if it is another automatic breakthrough.
Cough cough!
Su Jingxing was secretly delighted.
At this moment, a soft sound came from the phone he had set aside, indicating that he had received a message.
Su Jingxing picked up his phone and unlocked it. He couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.
The next moment, he used an anonymous number to dial Shen Qian’s number. When the call connected, he quickly asked, “What’s the situation?”
“We don’t know the details.”
Shen Qian answered on the other end, “At first, we thought that we were caught because our whereabouts were leaked. However, after Yi Yunru and Cai Gongxian were caught, we realized that something was wrong. After careful analysis, we confirmed that the Shi Family was deliberately luring us. Yi Yunru and Cai Gongxian had tracked the traces left behind by the Shi Family. They followed them all the way and finally fell into the Shi Family’s trap and were captured.”
“Are you sure they were captured and not killed?” Su Jingxing lowered his voice.
“Yes,” Shen Qian said in a more serious tone. “All of our remaining martial artists have installed a heartbeat tracker in our bodies, the kind that is embedded in our skin. Through the tracker, we can determine whether a person is dead or alive. As long as Yi Yunru and Cai Gongxian keep silent, no one will know that there is a little gadgetry hidden under their skin.”
“With the help of this little gadgetry, not only will we know whether they are dead or alive, we will also be able to lock onto their movements and their final location!”
“Where are they now?” Su Jingxing asked.
“On a mountain peak that is part of the peripheral peaks northeast of the Green Cloud Mountain Range.”
Shen Qian replied, “I’ve asked Xiaomao to mark the exact location on a map and send it to you.”
“Alright, I’ll take a look first.”
Su Jingxing hung up and turned on his computer.
He first received an email, then opened it and looked at the route on the map.
As expected, the Shi Family was up to something again!
For the past two weeks, Su Jingxing had been receiving news about the Shi Family from Shen Qian.
Firstly, all the members of the Shi Family were holed up, staying in their estate all day long.
After that, the various factions sent many people to infiltrate the estate and investigate the situation, but none of those people came out.
Furthermore, the Shi Family was selling their businesses to the outside world, and it seemed like they no longer planned to stay in Qinghe City.
Finally, Yi Yunru, Cai Gongxian, Ye Jiuchong, and the remaining dozen or so martial artists of the Stone Annihilation Alliance were deliberately lured and captured by the Shi Family.
Of course, there was no problem with these people being captured.
The problem was that the Shi Family did not kill them!
This made everyone curious. They found it strange.
Members of the Stone Annihilation Alliance had self-destructed in the arena and killed more than ten Shi descendants.
They even cooperated with Su Jingxing and started a duel in the name of the Lin Family.
Logically speaking, the Shi Family should be itching to kill all those martial artists from the alliance.
However, the Shi Family did not. Instead, they secretly moved them to a mountain peak northeast of Green Cloud Mountain Range!
Su Jingxing, who had already been to the Turtleback Mountain that was southeastern of the Green Cloud Mountain Range, had no doubt that Yi Yunru, Cai Gongxian, Ye Jiuchong, and the others were currently held at another secret base of the Shi Family.
Why did the Shi Family lock them up in the secret base?
Something is wrong!
There is definitely something going on here!
Su Jingxing stared at the final location on the map for a while and decided to go take a look.
Saving people was a matter of convenience. Getting to the bottom of the Shi Family’s conspiracy was secondary. Killing a group of Shi descendants and extracting the Bloodline Cards was the key.
Thunderbolt was just one step away from a complete recovery.
There were too many people watching if he were to take action in the city.
Outside the city, at the Shi Family’s secret base, there would be no problem.
With Su Jingxing’s true energy cultivation of more than 300 years, even if the Shi Family had ten fourth-grade experts, he would still dare to fight!
