Chapter 341: Chapter 278 Li Tiange!

Translator: 549690339

The autumn wind howls, bending myriad grass.

Pei Xuanjing is sitting by a lake, circled by intense Heaven and Earth Essence Qi. He keeps his eyes half-closed as his True Qi circulates within his body, constantly generating pure True Qi.

Of course, if anyone saw this scene, they would be stunned.

Because, in the distance by the lake, dozens of the Da Li Dynasty tribal knights lay spread-eagled in all directions, all slain with a single sword strike to the throat, having seemingly failed to resist.

As expected, these fallen knights were all slain by Pei Xuanjing.

Ever since he left Yunzhong City, moving out alone into the grasslands, he became the target of many knights who thought they could easily capture him for their own gain.

Unfortunately for them, Pei Xuanjing was not their prey, but a ferocious tiger that devoured humans. Over this period, countless knights were slain by him.

As a result, almost all the tribes on the grasslands under the Da Li Dynasty had taken notice. They had dispatched several skilled individuals to find and eliminate Pei Xuanjing, but unsurprisingly, none succeeded.

Whooosh, whooosh…

Pei Xuanjing, having finished his cultivation, opened his eyes, a hint of a smile appearing on his face as he felt the surging stream of True Qi within his body.

In a short period of three months, he had managed to refine 365 strands of True Qi, reaching the absolute peak of the Qi Realm.

For those who find it challenging to reach the extreme of the Qi Realm, constant exploration and laborious cultivation are required to reach the pinnacle.

Yet for Pei Xuanjing, his path of cultivation was smooth sailing, without any obstacles, up until the Heavenly Rank.

Theories learned from a book are of limited depth; without practice, complete understanding is beyond reach.

Initially, Pei Xuanjing had some speculation about the process of cultivating the Qi Realm in this world. Now that he had actually begun his cultivation, he finally understood the profound intricacies of the process and the difference between the extent of True Qi accumulation and stepping into the Gang Qi Realm.

Cultivation in this world primarily follows the Dao of Qi Refining.

The Inner Qi, True Qi, and Gang Qi realms are essentially processes whereby martial artists form connections with the heavens and earth, and finally accomplish communion with the heavens and earth, thus understanding the essence of the world.

In the Inner Qi realm, martial artists refine themselves to lay a solid foundation, so as to hold the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.

The True Qi realm is the stage where the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi begins to slowly enter the body to bear the Essence Qi. The more True Qi is refined in this realm, the greater the range of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi contamination.

In the Gang Qi realm, the spirit acts as a bridge to the heavens and the earth. Communion and comprehension with the heavens and earth transform True Qi into the powerful Gang Qi, strengthening one’s body, fusing as one with the universe.

At the Heavenly Rank, the Meridian Pass is broken through, and the body’s True Qi is continuously condensed and purified. The cycle of ceaseless condensation ultimately leads to the unity with the heavens and earth, an infinite realm.

“No wonder these people do not strongly insist on reaching the extreme in the

True Qi realm. Because even if they only refine 108 strands of True Qi in the True Qi realm which affects their strength in the Gang Qi Realm, they still have hopes of breaking through to the Heavenly rank. After reaching the Heavenly Rank, there may be differences in strength, but there’ll be no other differences in cultivation. As long as they work hard and diligently, they can still make up for these shortcomings.” Pei Xuanjing thought.

Instead of pursuing perfection in the Qi Realm and wasting the prime of your life, it would be better to give up temporarily, wait for the chance to step into the Heavenly Rank, then make up for the deficiencies in the foundation.

After all, martial artists in the Qi realm have limited life spans and do not have much time to waste. Once they step into the Heavenly Rank, their inner Qi circulates indefinitely, and their life span is extended. They have ample time and opportunities to make up for the deficiencies.

“Originally in the Daming world, cultivation was simply about accumulating

True Qi continuously, but there was no clear distinction. Hence, even among First-Grade Martial Artists, there were measurable differences in the amount of True Qi accumulation and the degree of purity in their bodies. However, this world offers a more detailed classification, making the path of cultivation of martial artists more precise.” Pei Xuanjing thought about the martial studies he had studied in the Daming world: “In the Daming world, practicing Gang Qi is merely a means of attack, but in this world, it is an essential step in cultivation.”

“If others from the Daming world came to this world, they might need to re-cultivate Gang Qi. But for me, there’s no need.” A smile surfaced on Pei Xuanjing’s face, “Innate Thunder Gang Qi might become one of my strongest means of attack apart from swordsmanship in this world.”

As he spoke, he closed his eyes again, and his inner True Qi began to operate.

In an instant, countless Heaven and Earth Essence Qi began to converge around him again.

With the operation of Shenxiao Heaven’s Intention, urging on the Innate Thunder Gang Qi, in a world already rich with Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, the power of Pei Xuanjing’s innate Thunder Gang Qi would surely be even greater.

If other people saw this, they would surely be left with their mouths hanging

open In snocK.

For many, they had to go through great pains to gather their spirits, break through the Meridian Pass in one go, comprehend the spirit, and then carefully condense the Gang Qi. They live in constant fear, worrying that one small mistake would lead to significant setbacks.

As a result, many people choose a safe place when making a breakthrough, only proceeding when they are fully prepared. To see Pei Xuanjing behave in such a brazen manner is utterly unheard of.

However, what they don’t know is that for Pei Xuanjing, advancing to the Gang Qi Realm is no trouble at all; it’s merely a matter of moments.

A layer of purple-green light slowly emerged to envelop Pei Xuanjing, exuding a terrifying aura. An endless amount of Thunder Gang Qi pervaded the air as though all the power of thunder between heaven and earth was converging towards him.

Boom!

Countless Gang Qi burst out from around him, causing a series of gas explosions. The resulting shockwave swept everything in the vicinity.

Centered on where Pei Xuanjing was, everything in the vicinity was lifted off the ground leaving nothing but bare earth. All the vegetation in the area was reduced to dust and scattered with the wind.

The Third Stage of Martial Arts, Gang Qi Realm.

This is still the second stage of the Gang Qi Realm, the Gang Qi Externalization Realm.

Just by merging his inner and outer Gang Qi to form a unified whole, he would have reached perfection in the Gang Qi Realm, with only one step separating him from breaking through the Meridian Pass and advancing to the Heavenly

Rank.

Pei Xuanjing opened his eyes; flashes of lightning emanated from his eyes. His youthful face bore a grave dignity.

He smiled faintly, his eyes dimming, and the grand aura around him dissipated, restoring his casual demeanor.

He slowly stood up, hands resting on his back, his robe fluttering in the wind, his gaze fixed towards the north.

In the following moment, a gust of wind blew in. A young man of about twenty years old, along with an old man with white hair, appeared not far from Pei Xuanjing.

The Da Li Dynasty, Li Tiange!
