He opened his first Immortal Aperture.

Ye Ping had an amazing feeling.

The rolling spiritual energy surged into his body like a river.

The Immortal Aperture was absorbing the spiritual energy like a fountain opening.

However, Ye Ping wasn’t aware that he had stepped onto a different path of cultivation on his own.

Ordinary cultivators would have to refine spiritual energy before guiding it into their bodies because each person’s spiritual root was different, or rather, each person’s spiritual energy was different. Hence, refinement was necessary.

That was the significance of Qi Refinement.

However, Ye Ping did not refine messy spiritual energy and instead attracted spiritual energy into his body by letting the spiritual energy of heaven and earth enter on their own. Those that were adamant would not be forced into his body.

Hence, he could skip the Qi refinement process.

In other words, Ye Ping hadn’t reached the Qi Refinement realm yet, but he possessed the Nascent Soul realm ability to control it and cultivate automatically.

Automatic cultivation was not all. For some reason, the speed of his spiritual energy absorption became extremely exaggerated.

Perhaps, it was because of the Immortal Aperture or because of his personal constitution.

The spiritual energy that Ye Ping absorbed in just one hour was probably better than what Su Changyu absorbed after years of meditation and Qi refining.

However, Ye Ping tried to open his second Immortal Aperture.

Each time he opened an Immortal Aperture, his cultivation speed would be doubled. And his goal was to activate ten Immortal Apertures before cultivating.

However, dreams were beautiful but reality was often harsh.

Even though Ye Ping had been absorbing spiritual energy for three days and three nights, he could only barely open his second Immortal Aperture.

It was extremely difficult to open ten Immortal Apertures.

Fortunately, Ye Ping was cultivating in the Qingyun Mountains and the disciples of the sect were not high-level cultivators in the first place. Hence, they did not notice that the spiritual energy had suddenly become much thinner. They merely subconsciously thought that they were in a bad state.

If it was a sacred land or renowned academy, Ye Ping’s cultivation would probably already arouse the suspicion of others.

After opening the second Immortal Aperture, Ye Ping did not stubbornly try to open ten of them.

Instead, he began to cultivate the Ancient Godfiend Body Tempering Technique.

On the rear cliff of the Qingyun Dao Sect, Ye Ping began to practice the Ancient Godfiend Body Tempering Technique.

He was sitting cross-legged and meditating the Ancient Godfiend shadow.

Ye Ping was rather nervous.

After all, the Ancient Godfiend Body Tempering Technique was extremely frightening. He had to guide the Heaven and Earth powers and turn them into the Divine Hammer to hammer himself once. He also had to use the earth as a furnace to temper his flesh.

However, no matter how difficult it was, Ye Ping wouldn’t choose to give up.

He took a deep breath.

He began to practice the Ancient Godfiend Body Tempering Technique.

He used his spiritual energy to attract the gods.

Boom!

A thunderous sound rumbled between the heavens and the earth.

The power of the Heavenly Dome seemed to be condensing a Divine Hammer as it blasted Ye Ping’s body.

On the cliff, Ye Ping’s body was dealt a horrifying blow and cracks began to appear and spread from the middle of his forehead. However, surprisingly, there wasn’t any blood at all. Instead, what flowed out were wisps of black impurities that resembled black syrup and gave off a pungent stench.

It was an extreme pain that made him numb.

Ye Ping felt his body vibrate, after which he stopped feeling anything.

At this moment, two Immortal Apertures in his body emitted infinite spiritual energy, instantly healing Ye Ping’s body.

A wisp of golden light emanated from it and covered Ye Ping’s body while repairing the terrifying wound rapidly.

In the next moment, Ye Ping came back to his senses.

Without hesitation, he resumed what he was doing.

Using the earth as a furnace, the temperature around him instantly surged and the black impurities were refined completely in an instant, turning into wisps of black smoke before eventually disappearing.

However, during the refinement process, Ye Ping experienced something awful.

He felt as if he was standing in the middle of a furnace, but fortunately, the spiritual energy released by his Immortal Apertures were covering his body. Otherwise, Ye Ping really couldn’t stand it.

The entire refinement process lasted for two hours.

Ye Ping completed the first refinement.

However, Ye Ping’s body had changed rapidly even though he had only completed one session.

His complexion became more tender and delicate while his features became more attractive. More importantly, his temperament had been enhanced inexplicably.

Those were the results of only the first session.

However, Ye Ping did not notice that.

The only feeling Ye Ping had after body tempering was that he was enriched.

It was an enrichment of power.

He felt like he could now kill a bull with a single punch.

However, there were unfortunately no bulls in the Qingyun Dao Sect.

“Is this power?”

In the middle of the back cliff, Ye Ping opened his eyes and felt the power that was spreading through his body.

He was eager to try how strong he really was now.

Unfortunately, there was nothing he could try on.

‘Should I try it on Senior Brother Luochen?’

That idea popped up in Ye Ping’s mind.

However, Ye Ping soon shook his head and dismissed that idea for the time being. After all, to Ye Ping, Xu Luochen was a peerless expert and his strength might be insignificant to the latter. If he tried it on Xu Luochen, he might seem like he was trying to flaunt his strength.

It would be too random and abrupt.

At the thought of this, Ye Ping instantly began the second Body Tempering session.

Although the process was a little uncomfortable, Ye Ping subconsciously fell in love with the feeling of being empowered.

At the same time, in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, two figures walked in the middle of the mountain range, seemingly extremely conscientious and afraid to make a single sound.

“Changyu, do you know the way or not? I really can’t stand it anymore.”

Daoist Tai Hua asked fearfully in the mountains.

They had already been walking in the forest on the mountains for three whole days.

However, they couldn’t find the way out.

How could Daoist Tai Hua not feel uncomfortable?

Being on edge and fearing that they would encounter demonic beasts all the time did not feel any better than being chased by demonic beasts.

“This is the route to take, I remember it correctly.”

Su Changyu dared not be certain, but he was scanning his surroundings with a frown.

They had been trapped in the mountain range for three days.

Although Daoist Tai Hua’s condition had stabilized, he still had to hurry to the city to find someone to treat him. Otherwise, they would become permanent ailments.

Hence, the two of them were rather anxious.

While the two of them were walking through the forest on the mountain, a bunch of figures suddenly appeared in front of them.

“There are people.”

Su Changyu said.

In an instant, Daoist Tai Hua forced himself to perk up and pretended to be calm while bearing with the discomfort.

On the other hand, Su Changyu put on an arrogant expression again.

Sometimes, encountering humans on the Cloud Mist Mountain Range was much more terrifying than encountering demonic beasts.

After all, birds would die for food while men die for money. Cultivators who dared to enter the Cloud Mist Mountain Range mostly had nothing to lose.

They were there just for money.

If they saw an injured person, they might harbor evil intentions.

Hence, the two of them tried their best to pretend to be fine, and even disguised as experts, so that the people would be scared and wary.

Soon, the footsteps got closer and closer.

The figures were getting clearer too.

The two of them were getting increasingly nervous.

They knew that they couldn’t run at this juncture.

Once they ran, they would be in greater trouble.

Finally, a group of people appeared in front of Su Changyu and Daoist Tai Hua.

They looked dignified and the two elders, who were the leaders, gave off domineering auras.

They were dressed uniformly too.

The words ‘Four Thunder’ were embroidered on their clothes.

All of a sudden, they looked at each other.

They stayed silent.
