September twenty.
The three layers of defensive and covering arrays in Shen Hao's bedroom were fully activated. He was sitting cross-legged on the futon. The air flow around him was turbulent, as if a whirlwind was sweeping out of thin air with him as the center. The whistling wind filled the room with a harsh sound. The furniture was pushed to the walls by the wind, and the room was in a mess.
If there were other people around, they would definitely exclaim, "The true energy is flowing out!"
This is when the true energy in the body is filled to the limit. At the same time, the violent squeezing of the meridians affects the external "qi connecting the heaven and earth", and finally forms a strange phenomenon like a whirlwind.
At this time, Shen Hao's eyes were tightly closed, his heart was raised to the sky, his face was shimmering with aura, and it was obvious that he had reached a critical moment in his cultivation.
In fact, Shen Hao has been speeding up his practice these days. Although he is not going all out, he has used all the available time. In terms of time, he has been rushing, and the result is as smooth as he expected. Reach the ceiling of the eighth level of the God Gathering Realm, and then start to make breakthroughs.
This breakthrough was more difficult than all the small realm breakthroughs in the God Converging Realm that Shen Hao had experienced before, or even several times more difficult.
In the past, with the help of the black beast tattoo, Shen Hao only needed to condense the zhenqi spears in his meridians and then attack the realm barrier without thinking. But this time, those once invincible spears were completely useless, and their impact on the ninth level barrier was like scratching the surface without leaving any trace.
"After all, it's the Nine Passes. It's really extraordinary."
Unexpected but reasonable. It is said that it is because of the sudden realization that there is no barrier, but in fact it is still getting more and more difficult to break through. It's not like Shen Hao has never thought about this situation before, so he doesn't panic.
"If the spear doesn't work, then try the drill and see how long you can hold on." Shen Hao thought to himself.
After that, the "spear" of true energy that had been condensed in the meridians came closer to each other driven by Shen Hao's thoughts and twisted together, forming a drill that was several times thicker than before and had a spiral pattern. Add a rotating force at the bottom, and finally slowly push this thing into the sea of consciousness and forcefully resist the realm barrier.
Shen Hao was very patient. At the beginning, the effect of this drill was not much better than the previous "spear", but as time went by, the hard work of the spiral finally became apparent.
First, a small depression was drilled out by the drill bit, and then it began to slowly expand into a small round hole under the forced extrusion of the spiral pattern, and then slowly became larger and deeper...
In fact, it does not need to be drilled completely. The realm barrier is hard, but not very tough. Once the drill bit destroys it to a certain extent, cracks will appear, and you can break it open by applying more force.
From morning to sunset, Shen Hao took out the first Great Peiyuan Pill and was about to continue to consume it. When the first crack appeared in the barrier without any warning, he collected the pill again. Get up, it should be no longer needed.
Then the second and third course...
Finally, boom!
It was like a bomb exploded from Shen Hao's body, setting off every piece of flesh and blood in his body. Every inch of his meridians seemed to be convulsing. At the same time, a strange feeling rose up from the sea of consciousness, and then washed over Shen Hao like a bath. Hao's soul seemed to give him a strange feeling from then on, as if a window had been opened a small crack, and the location of this small crack was not in the sea of consciousness, but in his Lower abdomen, three inches below the belly button.
When Shen Hao sensed it carefully, this ethereal feeling became unreal again, and seemed to exist in a very subtle state.
Afterwards, the Qi of the whole body is collected and the Qi of the whole body enters a new level, and the meridians and sea of consciousness begin to expand again. And when they reach their limit again, it's time for Shen Hao to gather his energy and prepare to attack Yuan Dan. Shen Hao is not sure how long this process will take, but he is determined not to delay it until next year.
After exhaling a long breath, Shen Hao stood up from the futon without any extra movement, adjusting to his current state of the ninth level of the God Convergence Realm. He even took out his weapons and started a fight in the room. Fortunately, the furniture in the room had been pushed to the wall by the "zhenqi outward" before, leaving the room empty, enough for Shen Hao to use his small tricks.
It wasn't until the sky became bright again that Shen Hao put away his weapons, removed the array, opened the door and walked out.
Secretly, three pairs of eyes stared so hard that the boss almost burst out of his eyes. They were the three guards who commanded the Yamen to place beside Shen Hao.
These three people had been greatly stimulated by Shen Hao's ridiculous cultivation speed before. They felt that they had lived like a dog for most of their lives. Now they witnessed Shen Haofei's breakthrough from the eighth level of the God Converging Realm to the ninth level of the God Converging Realm again. It seemed that I saw a scene that was like a miracle, but I felt numb.
"Is this kid really a human being?"
"Have you really made a breakthrough? In just one day, have you really encountered no difficulties at all? Can you really get such great benefits from just one epiphany? This..."
"Not only is the breakthrough successful, have you sensed his aura? There is no sense of vanity at all. This is just the end of the breakthrough. He probably didn't use any pills!"
"Strike the realm barrier without the help of elixir?! This is impossible! He, this, I..." He was incoherent for a moment.
Because these three people are all masters in the Yuan Dan realm, Shen Hao is still far away from their level even if his cultivation level rises again. You can tell the depth at a glance by observing in the dark. Once reminded, it is easy to tell that Shen Hao's aura state after his new breakthrough is indeed not the kind that caused a weak foundation after taking a large amount of pills.
"You can support breakthroughs from the eighth level to the ninth level of the God Gathering Realm just by relying on your own energy and condensation speed. Do you think the geniuses in the super sect have this ability?"
"Tianjiao? I don't know. But those leaders in the first-class sects should be embarrassed, right? Anyway, this kid is now among the most promising ones even if he is placed in the first-class sects."
"That's not necessarily true. It is said that Shen Hao's cultivation speed is all due to the benefits of his previous enlightenment on Chang Baifeng. If we really want to see the potential, we have to wait until he enters the Yuan Dan realm to see the reality. Okay. Come on, stop talking and go back to your place. I will report this matter to the commanding officer’s office."
After the three people secretly exchanged their inner emotions, they disappeared again. They received new orders. No matter whether Shen Hao was released or not, they must always follow and protect him.
At the moment when the three people disappeared, the vague feeling in Shen Hao's heart was finally broken. Before that, he was somewhat aware of three familiar breaths that seemed to follow him in a place not far away that could not be seen with the naked eye. He thought in his mind that they should be the three guards sent by the commander's yamen.
"My perception has improved so much after this breakthrough?" Shen Hao was slightly surprised.
