Chapter 542 – Gale (continued)
could clearly feel the changes that were gradually happening within his dantian. Originally, Yang Junshan’s dantian was like the form of a small hill, but during the martial arts realm period, as his cultivation increased, the hill was also constantly increasing in height.
After he advanced to the realms of life, the True Essence in his body turned into astral energy. As the mountain rose in height, clouds formed from True Essence Qi gradually gathered around the hill.
As Yang Junshan’s cultivation reached the peak of Astral Transformation Realm, the layer of clouds surrounding his dantian became even thicker, and the color naturally became darker. At first glance, it was as if dark clouds had covered his head.
At this moment, the thick layer of clouds formed by the Yuangang Heavenly Energy was accumulating in the air above the hill that his dantian had transformed into. It even felt like it was about to collapse if he couldn’t hold on for much longer.
Yang Junshan knew that the condition to break through the Astral Transformation Realm’s bottleneck and advance into Gangli Accumulation Realm had already been met.
The surface of the purple pill in the jade bottle was covered with natural fire and cloud patterns from the process of refining pills. This kind of mysterious pattern was able to combine and condense the huge amount of spiritual energy contained in the countless spiritual herbs into this small pill, and after the cultivator swallowed it, he would slowly release the spiritual energy contained within it.
Among the three treasured pellets he had acquired from Junior Brother Qiao, this was the most precious “Gale Treasure Pellet”. It was able to assist cultivators in breaking through the bottleneck of their Astral Transformation Realm; even amongst the treasured pellets, it was considered to be an extremely rare high quality.
Without hesitation, Yang Junshan swallowed the pellet into his stomach. The surging spirit energy immediately burst out from his stomach, and following the circulation route of the Nine Transformations Technique, it was refined into the pure Nine Transformations True Handle, and continuously flowed into the astral clouds above the mountain peak formed by his dantian.
After Yang Junshan decided to rush into the Gangli Accumulation Realm, he circulated according to the cultivation technique for the Mountain Nine Transformations, his spirit energy beginning to converge into his dantian and fuse with his True Essence. Then, with the help of the True Handle, he began to slowly revolve the Astral Cloud in his dantian.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis was precisely the crucial step of breaking through the bottleneck of the Astral Transformation Realm. And when Astral Transformation Realm cultivators were trying to break through the Gangli Accumulation Realm, about seventy to eighty percent of them were trying to push their astral clouds to spin and fail.
This step was related to the cultivation techniques a cultivator cultivated, the accumulation of their knowledge, the strength of their fleshly body, the environment in which they cultivated, the medicinal pills they consumed, and other things.
However, at the same time, the Astral Cloud accumulated by Yang Junshan’s Astral Tactic was also extremely thick. If it was any other cultivator, facing such a vigorous accumulation of Qi, they would probably end up in the wrong, and would not be able to cause the Astral Cloud in their dantian to spin.
But no matter whether it was Yang Junshan’s cultivation of spiritual consciousness or cultivation of the body, they were all of the highest level of strength. Adding on to his cultivation of the five elements Spirit Convergence Array, which was set up with seventy-two jade crystals in his cave of ice, ensuring an adequate supply of external spirit energy, there was another True Essence formed from a Qi Gathering Pellet that entered his dantian.
It was as if a basin of water had been stirred up by a single hand and was initially jusipple. However, as the arm continued to move, more and more water was drawn in and began to spin with the arm. Finally, the entire basin of water started to spin.
The condensed astral clouds above Yang Junshan’s dantian started to move from a small radius to more and more of them, until finally, the entire astral clouds above his dantian started to spin, which was an extremely long process.
Yang Junshan had to spend an entire half a year’s time to revolve the astral cloud in his dantian around the hill, and at this time, the matter of Yang Junshan advancing his Gangli Accumulation Realm was already eighty to ninety percent of the way.
The Astral Energy around his dantian began to spin faster and faster, and the Astral Energy around his dantian was slowly being absorbed. The entire area that the Astral Energy cloud covered was shrinking, and the deeper he moved, the denser the Astral Energy cloud became. It was also until the center of the spinning Astral Energy cloud gradually started to droop towards the top of the hill, forming a huge funnel.
At this time, Yang Junshan’s consciousness suddenly connected with the hill that his dantian had turned into, Yang Junshan felt his entire body suddenly shake, his entire body suddenly felt as though it was light as a feather, as though he was about to ascend to the immortal level. After that, the surrounding spirit energy started to converge on him, all of the spirit energy in the 72 jade stones beneath him was absorbed, and turned into 72 piles of powder.
The formation around the ice cliff was no longer able to conceal Yang Junshan’s presence. As his cultivation advanced, his consciousness expanded, and the spirit energy on the ice plains gathered below the ice cliff. It was even able to cause a strong wind to form, sweeping up the snow and ice fragments on the ground.
As the gale vortex in Yang Junshan’s dantian slowly took shape, gradually with the ice cliff as its center, because of the convergence of spirit energy, it formed into an enormous vortex of spirit energy, and looked likornado from afar as it shot into the sky.
It was fortunate that this place was located in the extreme north of the icy plains. It was originally desolate and desolate, but after the drastic change in the glaciers two years ago, there were even fewer cultivators in the extreme north of the icy plains. Other than the Alien Cultivator, there were only a few wandering savage beasts and desolate beasts.
Although there were no cultivators nearby, they had still attracted an Ice Origin Frigid Eagle to investigate. After circling around the huge whirlpool of air with the ice cliff as the center, the Frigid Eagle let out a long cry and flew back.
At the same time, that long cry woke up Yang Junshan, who had just had a breakthrough in his Gangli Accumulation Realm. The reason he chose to go into seclusion in the Frozen Plains was because he had noticed how desolate and lonely this place was and how few people noticed it.
Although it did not attract anyone, there was a Alien Cultivator on the ice plains that could control beasts. This Frigid Eagle might bring the Alien Cultivator along to investigate since he had been cultivating in this place for nearly three years, and had no idea about the situation in the outside world.
Fortunately, Yang Junshan was already prepared, or perhaps it could be said that the Snow Wind Sword Sect’s Junior Brother Qiao had fallen long ago. With a flick of Yang Junshan’s wrist, he took out a jade bottle that contained a “Origin Freezing Pill” from his storage ring.
The Origin Freezing Pill was specially used by newly advanced cultivators to stabilize their cultivation.
Normally, afteealms of life cultivator ascends, they would need at least three months to half a year to stabilize their cultivation, and during this period of time, their cultivation would be at its most unstable. A slight mistake could cause their cultivation level to drop back to its original realm, and even if their cultivation level is maintained, it could cause a huge loss to their cultivation, and they might even need to spend a longer time to recover from it.
With the Absolute Origin Pill in his hands, Yang Junshan could easily reduce the three to five months of cultivation to three to five days. On that day, this was only a temporary measure, but at the very least, Yang Junshan could very quickly use the strength he had after advancing to the Gangli Accumulation Realm.
After refining the Absolute Soul Pill, Yang Junshan could feel a thin layer of spirit energy gradually covering the surface of the astral cloud vortex, as if a layer of protection had been added to the surface of the brittle object. However, this could not truly change the fragile nature of the item, and to change it, the only way was to continue strengthening the item itself in the future.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYang Junshan whistled, and suddenly, from outside the cave beneath the ice cliff, the cry of a young eagle could be heard, following that, a white figure suddenly leapt out of the cave, and climbed onto Yang Junshan’s shoulder in a few moments.
Afterwards, the sound of wind came from outside the cave again, and a cloud of snow foam surged in from outside. Then, a small hawk slowly walked in from outside, and saw the Ice Fox on Yang Junshan’s shoulder, and immediately flapped its two wings into a flutter.
Yang Junshan tilted his head and glanced at the little Ice Fox on his shoulder, pretending to be displeased: “Xue Yi, you bullied the little gyrfalcon again?”
With a chirp from Ice Fox, his upper body stood on his own, opening up his two front claws, he had an extremely innocent expression, and upon seeing this, the little hawk who had folded his wings at the entrance of the cave immediately opened his wings and flapped them.
“Alright, alright. You two, stop messing around. We’re leaving the ice plains!”
Half a day after Yang Junshan brought the two little fellows and left this ice cave which had been used for closed door cultivation for three years, a huge change suddenly occurred to the constellations near the ice cliff. The originally dark and heavy sky was suddenly swept up by a huge blizzard, and the snow that filled the sky suddenly swept out to both sides likearl curtain. Then, a beautiful female cultivator wearing elegant clothes, whose entire body emitted a cold aura, walked down from the sky, step by step, until she finally landed at the mouth of the ice cave below the ice cliff.
Right at this moment, the cry of an anxious eagle suddenly came from behind the beautiful woman. The Frigid Eagle that was previously patrolling the place and discovered the strange phenomenon was circling in the air far away from the lady. The cry of the eagle seemed to explain to the woman that it had clearly seen the Celestial Phenomenon from before.
“I know, you don’t need to explain. There was indeed someone cultivating here earlier, but that person has already left!”
The Frigid Eagle behind her seemed to heave a sigh of relief, the speed at which it circled around the woman became even faster.
A moment later, a look of surprise flashed across her face and she said, “Whaure heaven and earth origin energy. Although this person’s cultivation is low, the cultivation method he cultivates is not simple, and this person is also a formation master? Although the formation array here has been destroyed after he left, from some clues, this person’s formation technique must be extremely ancient.”
He still dares to cultivate in seclusion on the ice plains aime like this, which means that he has some guts. If it was a normal person, he would be interested in teasing this person, but unfortunately, there are other important things he needs to do. Humph.
Yang Junshan didn’t know that he had nearly been targeted by a terrifying existence, but as he snuck out of the extreme north ice plains, he heard a shocking piece of news. The internal affairs of the Snow Wind Sword Sect had split apart, and three years ago, a portion of the cultivators of the Snow Wind Sword Sect had betrayed the Snow Wind Sword Sect under the lead of a few clan elders.
