Chapter 289 Rapid Progress

In Li Qing’s sea of consciousness, that purple sun was the pure soul power that the Demon Ancestor had left behind for Li Qing. However, this soul power had not yet been absorbed by him, so he had never been able to use it.

Li Qing had no idea how to absorb this soul force, so he did not care about it. No matter how much the purple sun stayed in his sea of consciousness, it was harmless. Furthermore, it could defend against soul attacks such as possession.

He didn’t expect that after eating the gray fruit, he would successfully absorb this soul force, causing his soul force to greatly increase.

Soul has always been the most mysterious place for humans. There are relatively few studies on soul in this world, so Li Qing doesn’t know why this kind of situation happened.

Could it be that after experiencing the reincarnation of the mortal world, his state of mind had been improved, and the essence of his soul had undergone a leap, and his capacity had increased, so that he could absorb more soul power?

“No matter how much it is, it’s not a bad thing to be able to strengthen one’s soul force anyway! I just need to absorb it!” A smile appeared on Li Qing’s face and he was in a happy mood.

When others consumed these gray fruits, they could only increase their mood. This effect was profound, and it was hard to say how much benefit it would have. However, if he was able to absorb the soul power in his sea of consciousness, that would be a real benefit.

With his soul strengthened, his cultivation naturally couldn’t fall behind. Right now, he had encountered a bottleneck at the fourth level of the Xiantian realm. He was working hard to break through as soon as possible, so that he could continue to absorb the multicolored light and increase his cultivation.

He didn’t know if it was because he had eaten the gray fruit or something, and his state of mind had improved. Not long after Li Qing started to break through this bottleneck, he actually easily broke through and reached the Xiantian 4th layer True Essence Consolidation Realm.

In the Xiantian realm, Xiantian Fourth Layer was a major barrier. After reaching it, one would have the ability to condense true essence, and it would be extremely versatile and versatile. Normally, it would take at least a few years for people to break through this barrier, but he didn’t expect Li Qing to break through so easily. This surprised him.

Back then, City Lord Jiang Yuan had been stuck in this bottleneck for nearly ten years. In the end, he was able to successfully break through with the Barrier Breaking Pill Li Qing gave him!

“Isn’t it a little too easy … Although my strength is very strong, it should be the effect of the gray fruit!” Li Qing muttered to himself.

Since he had already broken through to the fourth level of the Xiantian realm, he could continue to receive the multicolored light and cultivate.

During this period of time, Chang Wudi was originally a person who received the multicolored light. He was relaxed and satisfied. He didn’t expect Li Qing to do the same today. He couldn’t help but ask in surprise, “Hey, aren’t you stuck in a bottleneck? What’s the use of absorbing this?”

“Breakthrough!” Li Qing said concisely.

“What?” Chang Wudi was obviously stunned for a moment and said, “Doesn’t that mean that your cultivation is about the same as mine?”

“That’s right.” Li Qing smiled, revealing a pair of snow-white teeth, but in Chang Wudi’s eyes, it was a little dark.

In the past, when Li Qing was only at the Xiantian 3rd layer, he was able to beat Chang Wudi to the point where he was powerless to retaliate. Now that he was at the Xiantian 4th layer, wouldn’t he be able to hang her up and beat her? There was simply no possibility of escaping in front of him!

“No, I have to hurry up and cultivate. I can’t let you catch up!” Chang Wudi began to fight hard.

…

For a very long time, they had been cultivating in this place. With cultivation resources like the Five-Colored Radiance, their cultivation had increased by leaps and bounds. How could they be willing to leave so easily?

After this village, there would be no shop! Although there was a sarcophagus floating above their heads, like a time bomb, there hadn’t been any accidents for such a long time, so there shouldn’t be any danger anymore.

After an unknown amount of time, the two of them had already reached the peak of the fourth level of the Xiantian realm. They had encountered a bottleneck and needed to break through before they could enter the fifth level of the Xiantian realm.

If he couldn’t break through the bottleneck, he wouldn’t be able to improve his cultivation. Even if he absorbed the multicolored light, it wouldn’t be of any use.

Chang Wudi had already reached the peak of the Xiantian Fourth Layer. Unfortunately, he was unable to break through the barrier. He watched helplessly as Li Qing’s cultivation slowly caught up. He was extremely anxious. The more anxious he was, the more he would be unable to break through. In the end, their cultivation levels were completely equal.

“Let’s go. Let’s leave this place. The bottleneck of the fifth level of the Xiantian realm is not so easy to break through. It’s useless to continue cultivating.” Li Qing said. He had already increased his cultivation by one level, and it would be very difficult for him to break through in a short period of time.

“If I don’t leave, I must break through the bottleneck!” Chang Wudi’s stubborn temper rose, and he insisted on competing with this bottleneck.

“Alright then. If you continue to cultivate here, I won’t accompany you anymore. I’ll leave first.” Li Qing said.

“What? You want to leave? Then what should I do?” Chang Wudi shouted.

“What are you going to do? What does this have to do with me? You need a long time to break through the bottleneck, but I can’t wait here, can I?” Li Qing shook his head.

Chang Wudi was instantly discouraged. Thinking about how he was alone in this damned place, living with a pile of corpses, he felt extremely terrifying. After all, she was only a nineteen-year-old girl.

Especially after Li Qing left, how would he get out? She can’t fly! Wouldn’t he be trapped here at that time?

“Forget it, I’ll leave as well!” Chang Wudi said helplessly.

“Don’t be too greedy. Think about how many benefits you’ve received? You’re still not satisfied!” Li Qing taught him a lesson.

“That’s right!” Chang Wudi thought about it carefully and his eyebrows relaxed. After all, not only did she obtain so many treasures this time, her cultivation had also increased by a lot. From her initial Xiantian 4th layer to her current peak Xiantian 4th layer, she had saved several years of time.

The reason why she felt that she was at a disadvantage was actually because of the comparison with Li Qing. Because Li Qing had obtained more benefits than her, she had this kind of mental state. However, in fact, she had earned it no matter what.

“Then let’s go. There’s nothing special here. Hurry up and pack up and leave immediately!” Li Qing urged.

After staying here for such a long time, they had basically searched every inch of the place, and there were no other treasures. Apart from that ancient tree, it might be a very precious species, but it was impossible for them to take it away.

A cloud of Yin and Yang appeared beneath Li Qing’s feet, pulling Chang Wudi up. The two of them flew up together and quickly flew out of the True Dragon Corpse’s range.

They continued to fly upwards and passed by the mouth of the True Dragon. They were getting closer and closer to the ancient coffin. They observed the ancient coffin at such a close distance and felt the terrifying aura inside. Both their legs were trembling.

This place was especially the mouth of a true dragon. A terrifying dragon aura was emitted, as if the dragon’s mouth could bite at them at any time.

They didn’t dare to look any further and flew straight up. Finally, they flew out of the bottom of the abyss, getting farther and farther away from the True Dragon’s corpse.

Looking down at the dragon nest that had become smaller and smaller, the two of them couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. They were truly afraid that something dangerous would happen at the last moment. Fortunately, everything went smoothly.

“Let’s go, we can finally get out!” Li Qing immediately accelerated the Yin Yang Cloud and flew upwards. Finally, he flew into the abyss and returned to the giant passageway.

“How should we get out?” Chang Wudi said. They had made countless circles along the way and had long since lost their way. How could they still remember the way out?

“Let’s go along this path first. If we really can’t get out, then let’s just blow out a path from the rock above our heads!” Li Qing said.

With the strength of a Xiantian expert, this was something that could be accomplished. However, it would be very troublesome to do so.

…

As long as they kept moving away from the Ancient Dragon Court and headed in this fixed direction, they believed that they would be able to leave sooner or later.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, they discovered that the terrain in front of them was slowly rising, and the entrance to the cave was also slowly shrinking.

“It’s getting closer. I feel that the terrain is slowly moving upwards!” Li Qing said. Although the increase in the passage was very low, it could still be clearly distinguished by carefully sensing it.

The further he went, the smaller the passage became, and finally, it turned into a hole that was several meters in diameter.

“Finally, it has become normal.” Li Qing sighed. All the passageways he had encountered before were over a hundred feet long. They were simply like the kingdoms of giants. The size of the cave entrance was normal now.

However, what surprised them was that the entrance of the cave was actually getting smaller and smaller. In the end, there was even no way out!

In front of him was already blocked, it was a stone wall.

The two of them exchanged glances and were somewhat surprised.

“What should we do?” Chang Wudi asked.

“What’s there to panic about?” Li Qing rolled his eyes and said, “There’s no way ahead, let’s make a path! We’ve walked for so long, and we should be close to the ground. We should be able to get out soon.”

“Alright, let’s do it!”

The two of them attacked together, and their Xiantian True Essence continuously shot out, transforming into streaks of sword light and saber light that slashed onto the stone wall, shattering it like cutting tofu.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of explosions continuously came from underground space. The two of them were like bamboo shooting forward like diamond heads, their True Essence transforming into sword light that tore apart the stone wall.

Finally, a ray of light appeared in front of him, illuminating the darkness and finally reaching the end!

The two of them were shocked and immediately increased their strength. With a “boom”, they rushed out and arrived at the outside world.

Breathing in the fresh air outside, the two of them felt very happy. When they opened their eyes, they were all stunned, because there were actually many people standing in front of them, all of them staring at them in shock.
