Chapter 78 Ninth Level of Qi Condensation
"interesting."

Chen Mu looked at the newly summoned water-colored dark thunder and nodded in satisfaction.

It's so powerful just after being cultivated, it really deserves to be a top-level killing spell...

After admiring it for a moment, he waved his hand to disperse the water-colored thunder, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

"Next, I must practice diligently and transform these resources into my own combat power as quickly as possible..."

"You also need to take time to practice Waterfall Technique. You can't just focus on the Secret Technique of Thunder."

"The Zhaokong Sword needs to be put aside for now..."

This is because in order to unleash the flexibility and full power of magical weapons such as flying swords, one needs to practice a sword-controlling technique. There are several sword-controlling techniques in the sect, but after all, Shuiyunjian is not good at sword-controlling, so the quality of the sword-controlling technique is naturally far inferior to that of Wenjian Pavilion.

"It's not good to practice too many things at once. Let's put aside the sword technique for now... It won't be too late to pick it up again after I've made some progress in the secret technique of Nether Thunder."

After pondering for a long time, Chen Mu made up his mind, turned around and returned to the pavilion, and began his life of hard training...

……

Three months later, the sound of cicadas outside the pavilion was heard, and hot wind rushed into the room through the window lattice.

Chen Mu remained unmoved and closed his eyes to rest.

A moment later, a buzzing sound different from the chirping of cicadas made him suddenly open his eyes, and he stood up and walked out of the pavilion.

A sound transmission jade slip was hanging in the air and shaking constantly.

He stretched out his hand and the jade slip flew into his hand.

"Junior Brother Chen, it's been a long time since we last met. I've been admitted to the ranks of the True Disciple for exactly six months. Today, I've reached Tianhu Peak to meet up with all my fellow disciples. If you're free, you can come to the summit and chat... If you don't have time, don't delay your work."

Zong Bing's usual gentle voice slowly rang out, suppressing much of the irritability in the hot summer weather.

"It's been half a year..."

Chen Mu's heart moved, and he couldn't help but sigh that the time passed by inconspicuously. After thinking for a moment, he used his magic power to record the sound of his declining the invitation, and then threw it into the air and sent the sound transmission jade slip out.

Since it was nothing serious, he simply didn't go. It was just some drinking and expressing his feelings among fellow apprentices.

Moreover, according to Zong Bing's message, he was going to get together with his fellow junior brothers and sisters. If he didn't go, it wouldn't delay anything.

Chen Mu smiled and went back to the pavilion to continue practicing.

Unexpectedly, Han Jing came to see him the next day and said she wanted to see what Chen Mu was busy with.

After seeing that Chen Mu was indeed practicing arduously, Han Jing encouraged him a few words and walked down the cliff in a happy mood. Before leaving, she told Chen Mu that she would also go to practice arduously...

This little incident made Chen Mu laugh a lot, but it did not interrupt his plan. Instead, it made him devote himself to his hard training even more wholeheartedly...

……

A year later, the cliffs of Duhai were covered with snow, and it was cold and lonely.

"call!"

Chen Mu let out a long breath and slowly finished his training.

Looking at the several empty bottles lined up beside him, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.

"Including the previous six months, it took a total of one and a half years. The several bottles of first-grade, high-quality Heyuan Pills I was rewarded with have finally been used up..."

It is estimated that the two rewards of Heyuan Dan will require six or seven hundred low-grade spirit stones. Chen Mu couldn't help but be amazed.

"But fortunately, after taking these pills, I've reached the peak of the eighth level of Qi Condensation, which is faster than I expected... As expected, with resources, cultivation is much easier."

"But the most important contributor is the mysterious water lotus. It helps absorb the power of the elixir and transforms it into spiritual fluid. Only then can I fully absorb the medicinal power of each elixir..."

Feeling the water lotus emitting vibrant vitality in his body, Chen Mu stood up.

In order to quickly reach the ninth level of Qi Condensation, he couldn't afford to lose the elixir's support. Reaching the edge of the cliff, Chen Muyu raised his Wind Pattern Cloud Banner and flew towards the elixir mark.

In a short while, he arrived at his destination.

Chen Mu looked to the side with great interest. Beneath the heavy snow, the Danhen Rift Valley was still burning. Steam rose into the sky, but before it could stay aloft for long, it condensed into snow and fell down...

The two continue, the cycle continues...

Walking slowly along the bright corridor, I soon saw the corner. The servant said that Wei Xingyou was refining elixirs in the alchemy cave.

After walking a few dozen steps, Chen Mu saw Wei Xingyou standing by the alchemy furnace and adding spiritual materials into it, while Ting'er was dozing off in the warmth of the furnace.

Seeing this, Chen Mu walked aside and sat down to wait.

After a while, as Wei Xingyou slammed the alchemy furnace hard, Ting'er suddenly woke up, and the lid of the furnace was pushed open, and several pills flew into the jade bottle one after another.

"Junior Brother Chen, sorry for the wait..."

Wei Xingyou glared at Ting'er, handed the jade bottle to him, then turned around and smiled.

Chen Mu stood up and chuckled, "What kind of elixir is this, Senior Brother Wei?"

"What else could it be? Dingyan Pills... Several more female cultivators have come to me to order them."

Wei Xingyou smiled complacently and led Chen Mu to sit down.

Chen Mu said with regret, "Although Dingyan Pills can earn you a lot of spirit stones, it's still not as good as progress in the art of alchemy... It's better for you to focus on the art of alchemy. With your talent that you occasionally gain, it's possible for you to become a second-level alchemist."

Upon hearing this, Wei Xingyou smiled awkwardly and waved his hand, "Let's not talk about that... Junior Brother, what is it that you are seeking this time?"

Chen Mu felt a little strange, but since the original owner didn't want to mention it anymore, he didn't force it. He smiled and said, "I came here for the elixir this time. I wonder if you can refine the Heyuan Pill?"

"Of course!" Wei Xingyou nodded and said, "I definitely can't miss out on this kind of high-demand elixir..."

A moment later, Chen Mu strode out of the alchemy cave with a smile on his face.

He turned around and went to the Fuzhao Palace, found the task of hunting monsters, handed over several monster pills in a row, and completed the task of his master for nearly two years.

Then they continued all the way back to the Duhai Cliff.

……

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed quietly.

Chen Mu sat cross-legged on the sea-viewing platform, with a waterfall-shaped water curtain hanging in front of him, with rapids surging and brilliance scattered everywhere.

In the distant sky, a streak of water-colored dark lightning appeared, flickering with Chen Mu's thoughts, like an invisible venomous snake constantly swallowing and spitting out its long tongue...

After a while, Chen Mu suddenly waved his hand, and the waterfall and thunder disappeared. Only then did a smile appear on his face.

Half a year ago, he successfully entered the ninth level of Qi Condensation, but he did not stop his hard training. Instead, he spent half a year focusing on practicing magic.

Until today, Xiaogui's secret technique of water thunder and water waterfall has made some progress and he is now capable of fighting.

Chen Mu was in a good mood, with a look of reminiscence on his face.

"Thirteen years of training, reaching the ninth level of Qi Condensation, it's not easy..."

"Although I haven't caught up with Niu Dali, I have suppressed many disciples with mid-level spiritual roots. Only a few who have sufficient resources are almost as good as me..."

"But I've used up quite a few of my hundred mid-grade spirit stones... It's time to get down the cliff."

Looking at the distant sky, Chen Mu murmured.

"You can go there..."
