Chapter 150: Chapter 36: Saintess’ Repayment, Evolving Sword Technique, Consuming Ginseng Fruit, Forming Core Second Stage_3

One body crosses three thousand miles, as a sword once resisted a million soldiers.

One Sword Facing Heaven.

This sword is named Chao Tian (Facing Heaven).

Zhao Huai pondered for a moment and named this sword.

One Sun-observing, Two Ya Long, Three Ten Thousand Swords Return to Sect, Sword Four Facing Heaven.

Practicing sword arts consumes a lot of spiritual power.

Fortunately, Zhao Huai has the destiny of [Three Flowers Gathering at the Top], which allows for a quick recovery.

Among the three flowers, the human flower and earth flower have been opened, but only the primordial spirit’s heavenly flower is dim.

There’s no need to rush.

Thinking of this, Zhao Huai takes out the ginseng fruit given to him by Eternal Taoist Temple Gu Tianji from his storage ring.

This fruit is said to bear fruits once in hundreds of years and ripens once in a thousand years. The quantity is extremely limited; it is a rare treasure.

If it weren’t for winning over Zhao Huai, Gu Tianji wouldn’t have given it up so easily.

This ginseng fruit is only the size of half a palm. It is crystal clear and looks like a child; it emits a faint fragrance.

Staring at the fragrant fruit, he doesn’t waste any time and takes a bite directly.

With a slurping sound, the ginseng fruit splashes a lot of juice as it explodes in his mouth, and a sweet taste spreads in his mouth.

The fruit flesh goes down the throat and into the stomach.

Then, an incredibly dense spiritual power begins to form in his Qi Sea in the pubic region.

The spiritual power comes from the ginseng fruit; it is very pure.

Zhao Huai feels that his True Vigor is starting to circulate rapidly on its own, without him needing to take any action.

Layers of spiritual qi naturally infuse into the acupoints of his Circulation of Qi.

The Circulation of Qi operates on its own.

One cycle, two cycles, three cycles…

In the blink of an eye, he already reached seventy-two cycles.

Ordinary cultivators, in an ideal state, need one morning to circulate their qi through one cycle. In a day, they can circulate three cycles and receive nine days of power.

With just one bite of this ginseng fruit, he circulates seventy-two cycles in a matter of several breaths, which is equivalent to more than two hundred days or half a year’s worth of power. The speed is undoubtedly extremely fast.

Seeing the great effect, Zhao Huai takes another bite.

The Circulation of Qi speeds up even more, continuously flowing without a break.

Once the fruit is finished, he licks his lips and fingers.

The flavor lingers on his lips and teeth. The sweet water in his mouth moistens his taste buds, and he can’t wait to eat another ginseng fruit.

After consuming the ginseng fruit, it’s as if a surging river of spiritual power has opened up in his Qi Sea, continuously transporting pure energy to all parts of his body.

Zhao Huai’s breath rises once again.

Right now, his realm has reached the seventh level of the Initiation Stage, and he has solidly entered the first stage of Forming Core.

This ginseng fruit allows him to refine his entire body once again.

Originally, his meridians only emitted a golden glow, but now they sparkle with gold. His entire body is filled with golden light.

Quickly, he finished refining and met the requirements for the second stage.

This lays the foundation for his future breakthrough into the Golden Core Stage.

There are a total of nine stages in the Golden Core, with the third stage being considered low-grade. Above this, one can be considered a high-level Golden Core expert.

The Seventh Stage of the Golden Core can be called a pinnacle expert. They are among the leaders of the younger generation in the various Immortal Sects.

The Eighth and Ninth Stages of the Golden Core have not been heard of for a long time.

Zhao Huai’s goal is evident- the Eighth Stage of the Golden Core. With the support of many destinies, it’s not impossible to challenge the legendary Ninth

After condensing the second stage, he feels that the Golden Core period is not as far as he imagined.

After breaking through his strength, Zhao Huai’s mind couldn’t help but see the mature figure of the master of the Exquisite Palace.

She is a power above the Metamorphosis Stage and has experienced thousands of years, living in the Immortal Calendar.

Before the Immortal Calendar, the Immortal Path was still open, and cultivators could still ascend. The Immortal Sects were flourishing, but now the path to ascension has been severed, and there are even fewer cultivators than before.

According to the records, above the Metamorphosis stage is the Refining Emptiness stage.

Cultivators will begin to face tribulations.

Thunder tribulation, Mind Tribulation, Taoist Tribulation…

Whatever tribulation a cultivator fears the most is the tribulation they will face.

If they pass the tribulation, they become the Mighty. If they fail, they perish, and their lifetimes of cultivation are destroyed in an instant.

After successfully passing the tribulation, they can reach the Superior Realm.

The Superior Realm is also known as a half-immortal, capable of escaping their own body and condensing immortal bones.

After reaching the Superior Realm and experiencing the Immortal Tribulation, they can ascend and become a true immortal.

Upon reaching the Rebirth Realm, cultivators are affected by the spiritual qi of Heaven and Earth and the Heavenly Power. They need to avoid thunder tribulation in order to seek longevity.

The higher the realm, the stronger the cultivation power and the greater control over Heaven and Earth, immortal skills, and divine abilities. However, at the same time, they will be under the suppression of Heavenly Power. They can’t be involved in worldly matters, and they can’t take action themselves. Otherwise, they will attract karma and calamities, and thunder tribulation will follow them.

That’s why cultivating immortality is considered going against the heavens.

Rebirth Realm and higher-level cultivators will hide themselves, find a place without people to retreat and practice, not interfere in the Mortal World, and dare not take action.

The powers of Heaven and Earth and Heavenly Karmic Power are what they fear the most.

All the karma and karmic power they experienced in the past will turn into thunder tribulation or even the Immortal Tribulation when they break through in the future.

The higher the realm, the more likely this is. If one is not careful, they will be involved in a major catastrophe and die under the thunder tribulation.

This is also why cultivators of the Refining Qi and Initiation Stage are the mainstream, and the Immortal Sects often hide from the world.
