Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

After nightfall, the Yang Qi between heaven and earth had decreased to its lowest while the Yin Qi penetrated gradually .

Zhang Ruochen stopped practicing so as to prevent the Yin Qi entering his Meridians and affecting the power of Sun Meridian Ripple .

He took out the purple Beast-training Crystal from his Storage Ring and placed it on the ground .

The dazzling purple light shone a mystical color in the sky . A layer of purple splendor even reflected in the pool water .

Zhang Ruochen summoned Kong Xuan, who was perceiving Sword Comprehension, to come over . He indicated for her to sit down and asked, "How's your perceiving?"

Kong Xuan sat on the ground carefully . She crossed her slender legs and put her hands on her knees . She sat up straight revealing her plumped chest and tiny waist .

Specs of light appeared on a pair of multi-color wings behind her under the shining of the crystal . It was as if a seven-hued light rain was completely covering her tender body .

Kong Xuan's voice was soft and sweet . She responded, "Master, I've perceived part of the Sword Comprehension . However, I think I need more time to reach the Initial Stage of Sword Following the Heart . "

"Take your time!"

He pointed to the purple Beast-training Crystal . He asked, "Do you know what this is?"

"I have no idea . " She answered .

"This is a Beast-training Crystal . It is extremely precious . With this crystal, warriors can affect the consciousness of a savage beast and control its mind, causing it kill their opponents . "

Zhang Ruochen continued, "It also carries another function, which is to test a warrior's Spiritual Power . Place your hand on the crystal . Try to open yourself up and feel the power of the crystal . "

Kong Xuan followed Zhang Ruochen's instruction . She rolled up her sleeves and exposed her snow-white arms . She stretched out her soft boneless hand and pressed on the surface of the purple crystal .

She closed her eyes slowly, showing two attractive eyelids and tidy eyelashes .

As one of the half-peacock humans, Kong Xuan carried an extraordinary sense of the aesthetic . She was indeed a shocking woman with exquisite facial features, smooth skin, and a slender figure .

Zhang Ruochen wasn't focusing on her beauty but rather on the purple crystal . He nodded as Lines began to appear on its surface .

After a while, Kong Xuan opened her eyes . She retreated her palms and asked, "What's the level of my Spiritual Power, master?"

"Level 14," Zhang Ruochen replied .

"Is that low?" Kong Xuan was nervous .

Zhang Ruochen shook his head . He responded, "Generally, the older you are, the higher your Spiritual Power will be . However, if someone doesn't specifically practice Spiritual Power, they can only reach level 15 at most . When a normal person reaches adulthood, their Spiritual Power should reach level 10 . Reaching level 12 is classified as a genius . You're indeed very outstanding by reaching level 14 . " #

"But, don't be overjoyed . Those who possess incredible Spiritual Power were at level 10 when they were born . At the age of 10, they will reach level 20; when they enter adulthood, they will reach level 30 . "

Of course, in the last million years, there had hardly been anyone who possessed such incredible talent, according to Zhang Ruochen .

He'd only said this to prevent Kong Xuan from being arrogant .

Zhang Ruochen placed his own palm on the purple crystal and started testing his level of Spiritual Power .

BANG!

The crystal's splendor became stronger . It radiated throughout the entire practicing mansion .

Fortunately, there were arrays set up in the practicing mansion . Otherwise, it would definitely have startled other students who were practicing .

"You possess very strong Spiritual Power, master!"

Kong Xuan was shocked . She gazed at Zhang Ruochen who sat before her like a spirit . Her bright beautiful eyes exposed a sense of obsession .

The splendor dispersed gradually, and Zhang Ruochen withdrew his palm .

"What level have you reached, master?" She asked .

"Level 36 . "

Zhang Ruochen didn't hide from Kong Xuan .

"You're the genius in the genius who possesses such magnificent Spiritual Power, aren't you?" Kong Xuan exclaimed .

"I guess!"

Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, "It's difficult to keep elevating my Spiritual Power as I reach later stages . With my current realm of Spiritual Power, it's going to be hard to increase even just one level . "



"When someone reaches level 40, the power of Spiritual Power is revealed preliminarily . Those talents only need to make eye contact to control warriors of the Heaven Realm and turn them into puppets . "

"Moreover, a person obtains magical abilities once they've reached level 40 . For example, opening the Skyeye, revealing life and death, summoning wind and thunder, and Astrology . "

"The so-called Skyeye refers to the extraordinary Spiritual Power of the eye that appears on the glabella . It allows warriors to look through a hundred-meter deep mineral vein; reveals one's destiny; shows the hidden Inscription of Array, as well as the ghosts' spirits wandering between Yin and Yang . "

"Revealing life and death means warriors can tell how many years a particular person gets to live by glancing at them . They can also tell exactly which day that person will die . Of course, accidents are not included . "

"As for summoning wind and thunder, that is to call for thunder, wind, and rain through using Spiritual Power . The First Central Empire has set up departments of Thunder, Rain, Wind and Ying Yang . The chiefs of the Department of Thunder and Department of Rain are called the 'Master of Thunder' and 'Master of Rain' respectively . The chief of the Department of Wind is called the 'Master of Wind' . Their major responsibility is to monitor the weather in the Kunlun's Field, as well as manage the order of mysterious issues that ordinary warriors aren't aware of . Of course, they possess a strong personal ability . " #

Kong Xuan was shocked . She asked, "Does that mean that they've all obtained a Spiritual Power of level 40 or higher?"

Zhang Ruochen nodded, "Correct . "

"So, what does 'Astrology' mean?"

He laughed, "Well, Astrology is fairly mysterious . Rumor has it that it's linked to the sky above us . "

"According to the deceased sages, the stars in the sky correspond to situations on earth . By looking at the transformation of stars, constellations and zodiac signs, it can explain changes on earth, or even predict major events in the future . "

"Really?" She asked .

Zhang Ruochen shook his head . He responded, "I don't know . My Spiritual Power hasn't reached level 40 yet . I don't understand what the deceased sages were thinking and can't figure out the pattern of the stars . I don't even possess Astrology abilities, so I can't answer your question . "

Kong Xuan said, "So they possess the Skyeye and Astrology; are able to reveal life and death and can summon wind and thunder when their Spiritual Power reaches level 40 . What happens when they reach level 50?"

Zhang Ruochen answered, "If one's Spiritual Power reaches level 50, he'll become a Saint . A Saint can then live up to 360 years, several times longer than ordinary people . "

"Alright! I just wanted to let you know how important Spiritual Power is . The higher the Spiritual Power you obtain, the better you can perceive and practice Sword Comprehension and martial technique . Moreover, if you want to breakthrough to the Heaven Realm, you need to elevate your Spiritual Power to level 20 . "

In fact, Zhang Ruochen wanted to elevate his Spiritual Power too, up to level 40 . However, it was very difficult, and the process of practice could not be rushed .

He put away the Beast-training Crystal, took out a dozen meters of white bone and placed it in front of Kong Xuan .

The white bone was crystal clear and contained strong Power of Fire . It was like a blood jade pillar of interlocking canine teeth . It emitted a powerful beast aura .

"This is the backbone of a Fire-cloud Wolf, a fourth-level savage beast . Do you know what its function is?" Zhang Ruochen asked .



Han Xue shook her head .

Zhang Ruochen laughed and continued, "The backbone of a fourth-level savage beast contains the essence of its spine . It's also called the 'Spirit Pith' . It can increase a warriors Spiritual Power if taken long term . "

He took out a 50-centimeter-high jar and two bronze wine glasses . He placed all three objects on the ground at the same time .

BANG!

Squeezing five of his fingers into knives, he neatly cut the 10-meter-long bones open .

He poured the Spirit Pith out from the white bone and saved it in the jar .

After putting all the Spirit Pith into the jar, it was half full .

He poured two cups of Spirit Pith, one for Kong Xuan and one for himself .

Fire-cloud Wolf was a savage beast that carried the nature of fire . Therefore, its Spirit Pith contained a fire nature .

The Spirit Pith in the wine cup turned red like a burning blaze .

Just holding the cups, they could feel its forceful power .

Kong Xuan brought the cup to her lips and took a small sip . She felt as if she was had just taken a sip of fire . Her body was boiling hot, like her Meridians were burning .

Zhang Ruochen lifted the cup and gulped down all the Spirit Pith . Shortly after, he had refined it .

He quickly drank two more .

Kong Xuan endured the burn in her body and finished what was left in her cup .

Her body appeared to have turned into a stove . Her Genuine Qi and blood were boiling, and she was extremely energetic . There was a thin layer of red light covering her crystal-clear jade-white skin as if her body had been torn apart .

"AHH . . . "

Just as she was about to give up, Zhang Ruochen pressed his hand on her back and helped her refine the power of Spirit Pith .

After an hour, the red glow had slowly dissipated .



Zhang Ruochen led her to the Secret Practicing Room . He took out the Half-Saint's Sacred Glyph that hung on the stone wall and said, "Perceiving the Half-Saint's Sacred Glyph after drinking the Spirit Pith is the fastest way to increase your Spiritual Power . "

Under Zhang Ruochen's instruction, Kong Xuan entered the world of the sacred glyph very quickly .

Meanwhile, Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged underneath the Half-Saint's Sacred Glyph and began to practice .

The Sun rose the next day .

Yang Qi had returned to the earth .

Zhang Ruochen put away the Half-Saint's Sacred Glyph and started practicing the Sun Meridian Ripple .

As for Kong Xuan, she sat at the base of the stone wall and cultivated Sword Comprehension .

After an entire night of practicing Spiritual Power, it seemed that her spirit was unprecedentedly full . Her face had a glimmering red glow with a pressing vigor . Her skin radiated an enchanting hue

For seven days Zhang Ruochen practiced the Sun Meridian Ripple during the day and perceived the Half-Saint's Sacred Glyph at night .

Seven days later .

It was noon and the hot sun was blazing like fire .

"Sun Meridian Ripple!"

Zhang Ruochen squeezed his fingers so hard that his thumb became extremely hot . He blended the Sword Comprehension together with Genuine Qi .

With his finger as the center, he formed a partially transparent energy circle about 33 meters in diameter .

The energy circle retracted quickly and compacted onto his fingertip .

He pointed his finger out .

SWISH!

A wisp of red Sword Wave flew out from his left thumb . It made a loud noise and formed a strong sword path . The path stretched several hundred meters into the distance and hit the wall .

BOOM!

The Sword Wave pierced through the wall leaving a massive two meter wide round hole .

Most of the stone wall surrounding the hole had melted . It dripped down drops of lava which transformed into a mirror-like structure when it cooled .Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
