Chapter 265: Chapter 264: Breakthrough, Innate Realm (Please Subscribe) For the Immortal Cultivators, the impact of the environment was significant. The more abundant the Spiritual Qi, the faster the cultivation speed. Thus, many Immortal Cultivation Sects established their mountain gates at famous mountains and rivers where spirit meridians converged. The stronger the sect, the higher the grade of the spirit meridian. But aside from spirit meridians, there were also many places where the Spiritual Qi, although not as abundant as those of the Immortal Technique Sects... was still decent. These places were often referred to as spirit node points. These spirit node points, if carefully nurtured with resources, had the potential to form spirit meridians as well. However, the cost was often not something that ordinary people could bear. Dongxuan Market was one such spirit node point. At the cost of a spirit stone for ten days, Bai Ziyue rented a courtyard near the spirit node as his temporary residence. Naturally, the courtyard was the property of Immortal Master Dongxuan, equipped with a small protective array. Although its defensive capability was weak, it could isolate sound and aura, combined with the deterrence of the Enlightenment Realm power of Immortal Master Dongxuan, few dared to disturb. The environment was surprisingly quite nice. Exotic flowers and plants, a small pavilion, combined with the fairly abundant Spiritual Qi, made it very comfortable. Bai Ziyue nodded inwardly but wasn’t immersed in it. He didn’t place importance on these. “Dongxuan Market, located at the frontier, is the nearest one on my journey. The next market will appear in the Daqian Kingdom, at least a half-month’s journey from here. Therefore, if I want to quickly obtain a treasure containing Wood Attribute Innate Qi, the only option is the Thousand-Year-Old Willow Wood Heart in Huang Hem’s possession.” Bai Ziyue pondered as he entered the room and sat on the edge of the bed. “Huang Hem’s strength is formidable, an Innate Realm Martial Artist, and also the Second Peak Master of Qilian Mountain. Although I had killed an Innate before, rashly venturing into Qilian Mountain would make it difficult to escape unharmed. Thus, I must enhance my strength once more.” *Bai Ziyue thought, and with a flip of his hand, a jade box appeared in it.* He opened the jade box, revealing a spirit pill the size of a baby’s fist, in pale gold. This spirit pill was the Innate Pill. Although the Spiritual Qi wasn’t apparent, with his keen perception, he could clearly sense the powerful and surging energy contained within the spirit pill. It was a force substantial enough to help a Peak of First-class Expert Martial Artist directly break through into the Innate Realm. “Let’s begin the breakthrough.” Bai Ziyue took a deep breath but didn’t directly consume the Innate Pill for the breakthrough. Instead, he placed it within arm’s reach. If possible, he preferred to rely on his own ability to break through the realm. The Innate Pill was placed aside, serving only as an extra layer of assurance. *His eyes closed slightly, heart and spirit immersed.* The golden inner strength within Bai Ziyue’s body circulated rapidly, like mercury flowing, swiftly propelling. One breath, two breaths, three breaths... The inner strength circulated faster and faster, unconsciously integrating Bai Ziyue’s Spiritual Power and then his Qi Blood Power. The three merged, swirling, with a strong aura driving, the tightly shut room door moved without the wind. The infusion of Qi Blood ceaselessly consumed his inner strength, causing some indescribable changes within. The endless infusion of Qi Blood and Spiritual Power seemingly made Bai Ziyue’s once robust physique appear emaciated, quickly leaving only skin and bones, like a skeleton. The exhaustion of his spirit further lent him a sense of decay and a deathly stillness. *The flame of life seemed utterly weakened, flickering and wavering.* The once rapidly-rotating inner strength also appeared to slow down due to the lack of infusion from the spirit and Qi Blood, turning sluggish and gradually stagnating. Outside the room, the Little Black Dog anxiously wagged its tail as though sensing something was amiss. It seemed ages had passed, yet also as if only a moment. Suddenly, a power of vitality surged to the extreme, pouring out like a stream from his limbs and bones, appearing all over his body. “It’s now!” *Bai Ziyue’s heart trembled as his consciousness seemed to return to clarity, and his once nearly dormant inner strength instantly absorbed this surge of vitality.* Bang! like a great bell and drum, a resounding boom. Bai Ziyue only felt his Dantian shock violently, and amid the rotation, a sharp, resilient, vibrant force full of vitality yet seemed to harbor infinite destructive power flowed out. “Innate True Qi!” *Bai Ziyue’s eyes brightened, his heart filled with an indescribable joy.* *He knew he had overcome the most challenging hurdle, escaping death to create life, cultivated Innate True Qi, and officially entered the Innate Realm.* The most crucial part was that he didn’t rely on the Innate Pill to merge inner strength with the vitality power within it to achieve the innate. Instead, he achieved it by himself, nurtured life amid life and death, piercing through the fog, breaking through that layer of realm. *There was a fundamental difference between the two.* “However, upon reflection, with my accumulation and the strength of the Invincible Golden Body Technique, if I couldn’t break through the barrier and step into the innate, how many people in this world could?” *He comprehended clearly in his heart and once again immersed himself in it.* At the instant when strands of Innate True Qi emerged from within his body, an indescribable sensation of comfort arose in his heart. The entire body, at this moment, seemed as if it were soaking in a hot spring, or as a baby returning to the womb, nourished by endless maternal essence, indescribably warm and comfortable. At this time, the vigorous vitality power contained within the Innate True Qi finally began to nourish his body, causing his flesh to fill out, become plump, and undergo transformation. *His spirit also recovered in turn, becoming vibrant like fire, and with a slight sway, it could even stir the breeze.* *He exhaled softly, breathing.* *The air became clearer than ever before.* *He opened his eyes.* *The colors of the world seemed to have changed.* *The scenery and objects appeared the same as before, but in his perception, they seemed to reveal their mysteries, allowing him to perceive the changes in Qi and fluctuations of vitality.* Even the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, which had originally been sensed only vaguely, could now be seen clearly. This was a substance separate from the air, formless, intangible, and colorless, yet it truly existed. “This is the Innate!” He sensed that the inner strength within his body had completely transformed into Innate True Qi. The instinctively operating Innate True Qi formed a powerful suction around him, like a vortex. The strands of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, seemingly without wind, were immediately attracted, turning into flowing light, pouring into his body, flooding his somewhat empty dantian, and then being refined by the flowing Innate True Qi in a blink, merging into one, indistinguishable from each other. “Now that I have broken through to the Innate Realm, the use of this Innate Pill is actually not much. It’s better to use it as a supplement to make my Innate True Qi more robust.” Sensing the dearth of Innate True Qi within his body, Bai Ziyue turned his gaze toward the Innate Pill. Without hesitation, he swallowed it. Boom! In an instant, vast and surging energy arose within his body. The rapidly circulating Innate True Qi seized the momentum to absorb and transform this enormous energy... An hour, two hours, three hours... Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, a day had gone by. The vast Innate Pill energy within Bai Ziyue’s body had at this time completely transformed into Innate True Qi. Although his dantian was not yet full, it no longer felt as empty and void as before. Under the nourishment of that gleaming Innate True Qi, Bai Ziyue’s body had undergone an earth-shattering transformation. Not only were his flesh and blood transparent like treasures, radiating a crystal glow, but his temperament had also drastically changed, carrying an impressive aura. “One Innate Pill saved me at least six months of arduous cultivation, so it’s quite worth it.” Bai Ziyue’s eyes slightly opened, revealing a glimmer, deep and mysterious. In his heart, he did not regret using one Innate Pill. Time was equally precious to him. “Martial Arts Innate was entirely different. At this moment, my strength was more than twice as strong compared to when I was a First-class Expert. If I encounter that Innate Expert Ji Haoran again, even without using my long saber, I could easily kill him. Moreover, most importantly, my lifespan had also increased significantly. If I lead a normal life, without pain or disaster, I could live to two hundred years.” Bai Ziyue couldn’t help but let a smile tug at the corner of his mouth. *A trace of excitement flowed through his heart.* *A lifespan of a hundred years and one of two hundred years might seem indifferent to someone like him who was not yet twenty, but this feeling of breaking through the limits of the human body and transcending was a rare experience, far beyond ordinary imagination.* *It also made him harbor a thought for the first time, one he had never dared to ponder deeply before.* *Longevity!* “Phew~!” *After a long while, he finally reined in his slightly swaying thoughts, regaining his calm.* *Although desire had arisen in his heart, he knew that he was still far, far away from that step.* “However, with my current strength, venturing into the Qilian Mountain to seek the Thousand-Year-Old Willow Wood Heart should be foolproof. Even if I do encounter the Second Peak Master Huang Hem and the First Peak Master Zhang Xiaofeng of Qilian Mountain joining forces, I would have nothing to fear. At least, I would be able to retreat unscathed.” Bai Ziyue felt clear in his heart and finally stood up tall. He knew that Qilian Mountain had a total of three Innate Realm masters, namely the First Peak Master Zhang Xiaofeng, the Second Peak Master Huang Hem, and the Third Peak Master Cai Xun. Among them, Cai Xun had already been directly killed by a Flying Sword from Fan Qingyu. This left only Zhang Xiaofeng and Huang Hem. Huang Hem was at the early stage of Innate Realm, while Zhang Xiaofeng was at the mid-stage Innate Realm. If it were before, he truly would not have had much confidence in dealing with Zhang Xiaofeng, but now it was different. A breakthrough to the Innate had led to a surge in strength, granting him boundless confidence.
