#346 - Breakthrough after taking the pill
In the end, Amina was still coaxed by Wang Daochang.
She had to make an oath using her core circuit again;
Wang Daochang, on the other hand, staked the glory of his own sect and promised Amina that he would never use this subservient relationship to do anything excessive.
He was a righteous person, after all.
Amina pondered for a long time, and finally agreed to this plan.
Naturally, Wang Jixuan didn't feel like he had gotten a freebie. In his heart, Amina was already positioned as the only designated reliable partner of the Spirit Cultivation Civilization.
"Thank you for your hard work," Wang Daochang comforted her, "I will definitely compensate you later."
"What compensation?" Amina immediately became interested.
Wang Jixuan thought for a while: "At this stage, I can give you some escape techniques for fleeing, also using spirit energy. When my strength recovers to the point where I can catch up with that Nierda Tamon, I will teach you some extremely aggressive术法 (shùfǎ - magical arts/techniques)."
Amina nodded decisively: "It's a deal."
Dongfang Zhenghong on the side was filled with emotion.
Sure enough, coaxing girls is a job for handsome guys.
The oath was completed.
Amina, maintaining her small form, lamented bitterly:
"The number of times I've used my core circuit to make oaths now is more than in the previous ten thousand years!"
Zheng Shiduo said with a smile: "It's wartime, after all. Everyone's lives are hanging by a thread, so we can only find ways to hold on."
*Poof*.
Amina transformed into her large form.
She turned her head to look at Gao Huating on the side and said calmly: "When do we depart?"
Gao Huating hurriedly said: "Let me ask if she can take over my body…"
A wisp of spiritual power bloomed within her body. Gao Huating's expression became very indifferent, and a clear change appeared in her eyes. She nodded slightly to Amina, then looked around, her gaze landing on Wang Jixuan.
She said: "Although it's just a small circle, my existence is already almost semi-public. It's better to act sooner rather than later. Why doesn't Amina set off with me now?"
Wang Jixuan's expression shifted slightly.
He was guarding against this woman;
But combined with all her previous behavior, this woman didn't seem to have any intention of harming him…
The Daoist Priest was also a little conflicted.
This ancient civilization was unpredictable. Although he now had the Dao realm of the late Golden Core stage, he was not a Grand Ascension master after all…
It was still safer to be cautious.
"Amina," Wang Jixuan said, "Come over here, I have a few words to tell you."
He directly called Amina aside and whispered a few words in front of everyone.
So and so, this and that.
Amina nodded repeatedly, and the two then seemed to hit it off.
'Gao Huating' tilted her head and watched, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
After a while, Amina walked up to 'Gao Huating' and asked proactively: "What should I do next?"
'Gao Huating' closed her eyes, and a little bit of faint fluorescent light flew out from her forehead, condensing into a badge the size of a button, which was attached to Amina's chest.
She said: "The nearest portal from here is six hundred kilometers away. We need to find the downward passage of spiritual energy, and then I will activate the recall system of the civilization ruins, and you will be teleported in."
"Okay," Amina nodded slightly, glancing at Wang Jixuan.
Wang Daochang nodded with a solemn expression: "If you have problems and can't come back, I will uphold justice for you in the future."
Amina felt a little suffocated.
She just wanted to say goodbye!
Why did it feel like she was going to her death!
In fact, Amina was very curious about that place. After all, the six of them, the Spirit Cultivators, had arrived on Earth to find this ancient civilization.
Amina never thought that she would be able to accomplish this major task, which the six of them had worked hard for a long time without any results, so easily.
Shen Qionglin on the side suddenly asked: "Can you add me? It's okay if I don't come back."
"No."
The badge flickered slightly:
"Although Amina is not mature enough, she is still a Spirit Cultivator and one of the heirs to the legacy we left behind.
"Although I prefer that the person who inherits the civilization's knowledge and masters the method of entering and exiting the civilization ruins is this one-in-a-million cultivator."
Wang Jixuan shrugged: "When Amina returns safely, I will probably have a better idea."
"Yes, I understand your caution."
The badge did not make any more sound. Wang Jixuan seemed to see the 'elongated woman' bowing in salute.
He returned the salute with a cupped fist.
Amina transformed into a black butterfly in a flash and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Ji Xiao scratched his head: "Although I am now Lord Amina's soul slave, I shouldn't ask this, but… what if this is a trap set by the Spirit Cultivators…"
Wang Jixuan smiled awkwardly: "Before I reached this realm, Amina had ten thousand opportunities to kill me or kidnap me. We must have the most basic trust in our allies."
Gao Huating groaned and opened her eyes in the seat.
Wang Jixuan glanced at her and was inexplicably attracted.
For no other reason than that Gao Huating now had a kind of… clarity all over her.
Eyes as clear as a quiet lake, a face as clear as a cold mountain spring, and flawless skin that even exuded a jade-like texture of clarity.
That spiritual energy was almost about to burst out from the top of her head.
She was actually a good cultivation material.
Huh?
Why did Little Huating become more spiritual after losing that remnant soul?
Wang Jixuan suddenly noticed that it was inappropriate for him in his current identity to stare at a girl like this, so he immediately withdrew his gaze and coughed three times.
"Continue the meeting."
After saying that, he clapped his hands, signaling everyone to cheer up.
"Next, we need to consider from a global perspective how to deploy our forces and mobilize resources, assuming that Amina successfully masters the technology to close the intergalactic gate."
"By the way, there is also a teaching task today. I will teach you a few crash courses."
Everyone's spirits lifted.
After the meeting.
Wang Jixuan muttered, "I forgot to ask them when they can come back," as he walked away with his hands behind his back, taking Mudan with him.
His other soul had to rush to his main body's side. The time that the main body and the battle puppet were separated couldn't be too long, otherwise, there would be major discrepancies in the memories formed on both sides.
Just as Wang Jixuan left, Zheng Shiduo mysteriously found Gao Huating.
"Team Zheng, what's wrong?"
"Brother Wang asked me to tell you… to go practice singing now and see if there is anything special about it, whether that kind of power can still be used."
"Okay," Gao Huating nodded immediately.
Zheng Shiduo said: "What a pity."
"What a pity?"
"The way Brother Wang looked at you just now was very different, especially after you lost that incomplete soul. You were radiant and there was no disharmonious feeling. You felt like a little fairy."
Zheng Shiduo smacked his lips:
"It's a pity that Brother Wang now has Commander Lingtong. Our Brother Wang definitely can't do something like two-timing.
"But you don't have to be discouraged. We all see your little thoughts.
"They aren't married yet, you still have a chance."
"No, when did I… I'm going back to get my guitar!"
Gao Huating covered her eyes with her hands, turned her head and ran away.
Zheng Shiduo blinked and couldn't help but tilt his head.
He just probed a little, how could it be, is she really interested in Brother Wang? Even thinking about this kind of thing would be embarrassing, she's deeply poisoned.
'Good heavens, is Brother Wang so popular?'
Old Zheng adjusted the position of the plug with his gluteus maximus and breathed a sigh of relief.
'It's a good thing I don't like Brother Wang. Strong men like Shenhai are more manly.'
The latest novels are first published on 69书吧!
Shenhai on the side inexplicably shivered.
He felt a sense of malice from the era of collapse.
… …
Wang Daochang's other soul quickly returned to its position, and then stayed at home for two days.
Wang Jixuan used dual cultivation techniques to strengthen Lingtong's body again and helped Lingtong form an inner cycle, allowing her to officially enter cultivation.
She had already undergone mechanical modifications, and the meridians in her body were a mess. Wang Jixuan could only barely help her form an inner cycle.
Unless she directly changed her body or was reborn;
Otherwise, her upper limit on the path of cultivation would not be too high, and it would be difficult to complete even the Foundation Establishment stage.
Wang Jixuan didn't force it. He just wholeheartedly helped her and helped humanity cultivate an absolutely loyal pilot for a super-large mecha.
He was waiting for news from Amina.
Wang Daochang was somewhat embarrassed to let Amina take risks alone.
When he and Amina whispered in the corner, he also left a wisp of Amina's soul power. If Amina encountered an accident, he would be able to immediately detect something wrong.
But he could only detect something wrong.
The Interstellar Gate had already been opened;
The destruction of human civilization seemed to have entered a countdown;
In just two days, the human military and the Spirit Energy Capital had been acting frequently.
More firepower units were deployed near the Arctic Circle;
The three major space fortresses were also undergoing emergency preparations, and a large number of reserve troops were transported from the nine major integrated war zones to space. This seemed to indicate that humans predicted that outer space would become the main battlefield of the war.
This tense atmosphere actually had limited impact.
Most ordinary people were just living their daily lives in the fortresses, actively producing and expanding armaments, complaining that they had to work more and more overtime recently and that they needed a psychologist.
Wang Jixuan originally planned to stay with Lingtong for three days;
But there was no way, the materials for the 'Ascension Pill' he was going to refine were ready.
With a great enemy at hand, romantic feelings could only be put aside for the time being.
He and Lingtong went to their respective battlefields.
The D5 Integrated War Zone has been heavily promoting Ling Tong for the past year. Now, they need a 'hero' like her to step forward and give the soldiers confidence.
She has to travel to many places to encourage everyone to actively prepare for war, and she herself must also do a good job in her daily training as a 'candidate pilot for super-large mecha'.
Wang Jixuan returned to the ruins of Fortress 76 again.
This time, he didn't alarm anyone except Red Serpent and Treant Beta.
Open the furnace, refine pills.
This pill refinement resulted in a slight explosion in the furnace.
When Wang Jixuan used his magic power to pull out the radiant pill, the entire pill refining chamber was filled with the fragrance of medicine.
Red Serpent asked with shining eyes, "Teacher, what is this thing for!"
"It's for improving strength, but it can only be used at one stage."
Wang Jixuan was filled with mixed emotions.
He lamented, "If we follow normal reasoning, I shouldn't be stuck at a bottleneck right now. Instead, I should be accumulating insights and fully understanding what a Golden Core is before stepping onto the Bridge to Heaven and knocking on the Immortal Gate from the mortal world... But there's no way around it, I need strength."
Red Serpent asked, "Will cultivating faster have side effects?"
"Sometimes it will, like having inner demons," Wang Jixuan said with an embarrassed smile. "Cultivation isn't about speed, but about the upper limit. In my hometown's cultivation world, the power is in the hands of the older generation, and the younger generation can't make any waves."
Treant Beta suddenly understood, "Class!"
"It's lifespan."
Wang Daoren looked at the pill in front of him, hesitated for three seconds, swallowed it in one gulp, and jumped back into the corner, setting up a layer of magic barrier.
"If there are any anomalies, explain that I'm refining pills and don't let anyone disturb me."
"Yes!" Treant Beta replied like a soldier.
A sound like crashing waves came from within Wang Jixuan's body.
The Golden Core in his abdomen released a powerful magic cyclone, and streams of spiritual energy surged in from the world.
Seeing this, Peony, who was waiting outside, immediately stepped forward and began to set up a Spirit Release Array.
— The reason why Daoren didn't have to worry about these things himself was because Peony was assisting him.
Wang Jixuan quickly entered a breakthrough state.
He also wanted to rush to the Nascent Soul Realm in one step, so that he could advance and retreat freely in the future.
However, cultivating immortality cannot be achieved overnight.
The Bridge to Heaven Realm is the only realm that is divided into six stages, because no steps in this process can be omitted.
The Nascent Soul condenses Qi, the Golden Core is formed, and the Nascent Soul defines one's own path.
Unless there is now enough, many times more spiritual energy than what is required for this stage of cultivation, Wang Jixuan can use his Great Ascension remnant soul to forcibly elevate his realm, and this Bridge to Heaven Realm may be completed quickly.
Twenty-odd days is not enough time. It's best to improve my strength as much as possible.
The medicinal power in his body became more and more surging, and Wang Jixuan gradually abandoned distracting thoughts.
Cultivating here is indeed safer than inside the Pillar Blade Beast's body.
Before long, Wu Man and Zheng Shiduo, who had just returned from the general headquarters, were also called over by Peony. They started the furnace to refine pills, concealing the movement here.
Even the messages sent by Fu Jian were directly intercepted by Peony.
Peony estimated that Wang Jixuan's breakthrough should last for two or three days.
In these few days, the fire of this pill furnace must not be extinguished.
Noon on the third day after Daoren took the pill.
Near the ruins of Fortress 76, in a deep canyon on the edge of the desert.
A black butterfly slowly flew out, transforming into Amina's figure.
She looked back at the road she had come from, her expression somewhat complicated.
A faint rumbling sound came from the earth, which should be the collapse of a certain passage.
With that, Amina sighed, crossed her hands over her shoulders, and performed the highest etiquette of the Spiritual Cultivation Civilization towards the road she had come from.
"I have to hurry up and find that guy."
