Chapter 319 Fifth Stage
The advancement of a warrior from the third level to the fourth level is a process of opening up the Qi Sea and condensing true Qi.

To advance from the fourth level to the fifth level, one needs to refine all the true qi into true essence.

This is what is called condensing qi into essence.

Although the fourth and fifth levels both belong to the Qi Entry Realm, which is an upgrade rather than a breakthrough, the difficulty is not low at all.

The warrior's own talent, physique, understanding, the skills he practices, and the resources he consumes in daily life are all closely related to it. It is not enough to rely solely on hard work.

It hasn't been very long since Zhang Yuan opened up his Qi Hai.

He was able to condense Qi into essence so quickly, which was also inseparable from a series of opportunities.

In fact, considering Zhang Yuan’s age, he can continue to practice hard at the fourth level for a year or two to lay a more solid foundation, and then breaking through to the fifth level is the best option.

But the problem is that he has been feeling uneasy lately.

Especially the arrival of the celestial being made Zhang Yuan feel strongly alert.

He urgently needs to improve his cultivation level in order to deal with possible dangers in the future.

Under such circumstances, Zhang Yuan spared no expense to ask Huifeng to refine the Huayuan Pill for him.

As soon as the pill entered his stomach, an invisible storm was immediately set off in his dantian. The Hunyuan Tiangang true qi was instantly "ignited", causing the qi and blood in his body to boil violently.

At this moment, Zhang Yuan, both physically and mentally, was put to a tremendous test!

His abdomen seemed like a volcano about to erupt. The scorching true qi could explode at any time. The surging qi and blood rushed straight to the acupoint on the top of the head, and the whole person felt like he was in a furnace.

But at this moment Zhang Yuan was not at all panicked. He used the methods in "Hunyuan Tiangang Zhengfa" to guide the restless true qi up the meridians, penetrating the internal organs and entering the limbs and bones.

Attack the acupoints that have not been penetrated with a devastating force.

Since Zhang Yuan entered the fourth level, more than 80% of his acupoints have been opened.

But the remaining part is the hardest.

Previously, when he attained enlightenment in the Heavenly King Hall, he opened up more than a dozen important acupoints in one fell swoop.

It laid a solid foundation for today's condensation of qi and transformation of essence.

With the support or stimulation of the power of Huayuan Dan, the Hunyuan Tiangang Qi repeatedly flushed the blocked acupoints with a mighty force, breaking through the obstacles bit by bit.

Until it is completely connected!
And the breakthrough of an acupoint is just the beginning.

Zhang Yuan quickly entered a state of oblivion of himself and the world. He focused on controlling the docile Hunyuan Tiangang Qi in his body and launched a general attack on the stubborn "fortresses" one by one.

I don’t know how much time passed.

When the true qi in his Dantian began to dry up, Zhang Yuan swallowed the second Huayuan Pill without hesitation.

The most taboo thing in breaking through the barriers is to give up halfway. Once you stop, all the hard work you put in before will most likely be wasted, and the acupoints you just opened will be blocked again.

It may even cause damaged meridians to be unable to heal!
The Hunyuan Tiangang Qi is extremely strong and masculine, which makes it more difficult to advance.

If Zhang Yuan didn't have the three Yuan Hua Dan in his hand, he wouldn't dare to condense Qi into Yuan so quickly.

As the drug quickly took effect, he once again sank into his mind.

boom!
The last and most difficult acupoint, the Tianding acupoint, was finally successfully opened up after Zhang Yuan's unremitting efforts.

A burst of fiery blood energy surged from the top of his head, rushing straight up more than ten feet.

It didn't dissipate for a long time.

Zhang Yuan felt his whole body lighten, and the pressure from his Dantian suddenly reduced greatly. He felt as if he had gone through a bone-cutting and marrow-cleansing process. He was sweating profusely, yet he felt extremely relaxed.

But he did not relax. He continued to push the true Qi through the acupoints and meridians until it completed a great cycle.

When the Hunyuan Tiangang true qi returns to the Dantian, a drop of pure true qi naturally condenses and forms.

Level five!

Although this drop of true essence is very small, it is condensed from true qi that is more than ten times its volume.

It means that Zhang Yuan has officially broken through the shackles of the fourth level.

Stepping into the threshold of level five!
The most important hurdle has been passed.

Next, Zhang Yuan only needs to transform all the true qi in his dantian into true essence, and he will be able to stand firmly on the fifth level.

And he swallowed the third precious Huayuan Pill!
In fact, you don't need to take this Huayuan Pill again, you can achieve the goal by just practicing hard.

The saved pills could be sold for a large sum of gold and silver, but Zhang Yuan had no regrets.

With the help of this pill, the speed at which he condensed his true essence increased by more than ten times.

All conversions were completed in one go!

Entering the fifth level, the biggest change on the Shenchao panel is undoubtedly the increase in Qi and health values.

You should know that the higher the Qi and blood value, the more difficult it is to improve.

Before, it was as slow as a snail, and it was very difficult to increase it by 1 point.

Previously, Zhang Yuan’s Qi and blood value was just over a thousand, but now it has suddenly increased by hundreds of points.

The increase is really surprising!

Inside the quiet room, Zhang Yuan stood up, a gleam of light flashing in his dark eyes.

He clenched his fists, feeling the power filling his body, and he had never felt so strong as he did at that moment!

This is not Zhang Yuan’s illusion.

The true energy, like jade liquid, flowed silently in his meridians, roaming through his internal organs, limbs, and bones, penetrating the acupoints throughout the body, and finally returning to his dantian to continue circulating.

As long as Zhang Yuan is willing, he can mobilize his true energy at any time and burst out with a power that is several times or even ten times stronger than before.

A fifth-level warrior can easily crush a fourth-level warrior, precisely because of the characteristics of his true energy.

Zhang Yuan's heroic feat of defeating Li Wanlong would have been almost impossible to achieve without the help of the Divine Nest Parasite and the Red Blood Divine Weapon!

But now, he is already a fifth-level strongman.

Although in the Xiaxu where there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers, the fifth level is not the most powerful one.

But there is very few people as young as Zhang Yuan.

His level of cultivation is worthy of the status of the guardian general of the Heavenly King Palace!

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yuan sat down again.

Start looking inward.

This time he successfully broke through with the help of three Huayuan Pills. Although the process was very smooth, some problems were inevitable and required careful inspection.

Completely eliminate hidden dangers.

Fortunately, the "Hunyuan Tiangang Zhengfa" technique is mysterious and it is not difficult to solve.

Despite this, it took Zhang Yuan another three days to get out of quarantine.

The fourth level of retreat, the fifth level of breakthrough.

When he walked out of the quiet room and opened the door, he saw the talisman paper pasted on the door panel at a glance.

Zhang Yuan reached out and took off the token.

He glanced at what was written on the talisman paper and couldn't help but feel moved.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yuan went back to his room, changed his clothes, and then went to the Heavenly King Hall.
