Chapter 168 - 130: Achieving the Spiritual Sea Realm!_2
Nine feet and nine inches is the true initial perfection.
As for why he could breakthrough to this limit, Jiang Yuan himself didn’t quite understand.
But he knew that he had forged the most solid and perfect foundation for this realm.
This outcome didn’t surprise him at all, believing that if he couldn’t reach the initial limit of the Spiritual Sea Realm, it merely implied that such limit did not exist.
Subsequently, he slowly opened his eyes.
At that moment, as his realm stabilized, he felt his body slowly changing; his essence began to sublimate.
His divine soul continued to grow, and his physical body became stronger as it sublimated. The golden particles in his blood also slowly increased.
This change was not dramatic, but unhurried.
He could predict that this process would last several days.
Jiang Yuan had anticipated this; it was the essence of sublimation brought about by the breakthrough.
The promotion of the level of life and position level.
This sublimation often lasted seven days to half a month.
After the sublimation was completed, that would be the real Spiritual Sea Realm.
However, he now felt the surging spiritual power within his body, and a smile appeared on his face.
Compared to the tenth increase in meridian breaking realm, the current surge in spiritual power, although only more than tenfold.
But transitioning from gaseous spiritual power to liquid, it’s an advancement in quality; there’s a fundamental difference between the two and is an increase of much more than tenfold when combined.
Afterwards, he opened his Personal Dashboard for a glance.
[Name]: Jiang Yuan
[Realm]: First Level of Spiritual Sea Realm
[Innate Luck Power]: Ancient Double Pupils (Gold), Immortal life (Purple), Human Emperor Bloodline (Purple), Peerless Intelligence (Purple), Dragon Elephant Overlord Body (Purple), Five Elements Spiritual Body (Blue), Divine Soul Condensation (Blue), Divine Archer (Blue)
[Luck Power]: 107 strands
[Luck Seeds]: None
He then glanced at the thick layer of gray-white dust beside him.
This was the waste from the massive cellular division and death during his physical metamorphosis.
He sighed a murky breath and slowly rose to his feet.
With a wave of his hand, the spiritual stones in the formation sank back into his hand, and the rising formation gradually dissipated.
Outside the room, Shu Xiaoxiao noticed the change in the Quiet Room and a look of joy appeared on her face.
It seems that Young Master has completed the breakthrough.
Just then, the door to the Quiet Room slowly opened.
The figure of Jiang Yuan appeared in Shu Xiaoxiao’s sight.
Seeing the gray-whiteness on Jiang Yuan’s body and the peeling skin on his face.
She stuttered momentarily, then hurriedly said, “Young Master, I’ll go heat some water for your bath now!”
Jiang Yuan smiled: “There’s no need.”
He raised his hand and conjured a cubic meter of pure water out of thin air.
Kou Dong saw the formation of Jiang Yuan’s courtyard slowly fading.
Looking in that direction, he joyfully said, “It seems that Junior Brother Jiang has completely broken through!”
Then, he lamented, “A Spiritual Sea Realm under the age of twenty, how exaggerated! The Supreme Mystery Sect hasn’t seen this kind of prodigy in years! I should pay him a visit to congratulate.”
A moment later.
He arrived at Jiang Yuan’s courtyard and knocked on the door.
Jiang Yuan’s voice immediately reached his ears: “Brother Kou, please wait a moment, I’m bathing.”
Half an incense stick’s time passed.
Squeak!
The wooden door of the yard slowly opened.
Shu Xiaoxiao suggested: “Young Master Kou, please!”
Kou Dong stepped through the courtyard door and saw Jiang Yuan, who was already waiting in the pavilion.
He immediately clasped his fists and said, “Congratulations Junior Brother Jiang on successfully breaking through the realm!”
Jiang Yuan also smiled, raising his hand to gesture and said, “Senior Brother Kou, please take a seat!”
Following Kou Dong’s seating, Jiang Yuan poured him a cup of tea.
“Senior Brother Kou, you are very observant! You guessed that I silently broke through! No wonder the sect puts major responsibilities on Senior Brother Kou and has assigned you to hold office in Yunxiao City.”
“Ah,” Kou Dong sighed, “let’s not talk about it! Although staying in Yunxiao City is a glorious sight, there are many troublesome matters as well, causing my recent cultivation to lag a bit!”
“But there is one thing that’s good! I am quite wealthy!”
He gave a laugh, then took out a bottle of elixir.
“This is a mid-grade Lingering Pill, which I originally bought for my own practice. Now, Brother Jiang has just achieved the Spiritual Sea Realm. I’ll give it to you as a congratulatory gift!”
Jiang Yuan looked at Kou Dong with surprise in his eyes.
“Senior Brother Kou has a generous disposition. This vial of elixir must be worth a hundred medium-grade spiritual stones!”
Kou Dong nodded his head, “Junior Brother Jiang guessed correctly, its price is just slightly higher than that! As it’s a gift, I wouldn’t feel comfortable giving something too cheap.”
Jiang Yuan let out a smile, “Then I’ll accept it without any reservations!”
Meanwhile…
The Supreme Mystery Sect…
At this point, the hall doors were tightly shut, and all the elders and chiefs of each peak had gathered here.
“Sect Leader, what did people from the Sunset Sect say?” A man who appeared to be around forty stood up and asked.
He was Nie Xuan, the Peak Master of Qingxi Peak, one of the seven chiefs of the Supreme Mystery Sect.
“They said, it’s still the old rule, with ten young disciples chosen to decide the ownership of this spiritual stone vein, all of whom must be under twenty-five years old,” Lu Qingshan said.
The chief of Divine Maiden Peak, Chief Mu, nodded, “I see no problem in agreeance, we have Jiang Yuan.”
Lu Qingshan also showed a trace of a smile, “I think the same way too, I have already notified them that the battle for the ownership of the vein will be half a month later.”
Just then, Kong Nian suddenly said, “Has the news about Jiang Yuan’s previous battle been contained?”
Lu Qingshan nodded slightly, “Upon receiving the news from the Sunset Sect, I had the Third Elder investigate the matter.”
Then he turned to a middle-aged woman in a blue robe standing below him, “Third Elder, please, you explain this matter!”
The Third Elder looked at the eyes of everyone gathered on her, then stepped forward and calmly said, “According to my investigation, the news of Jiang Yuan defeating Liang Qiu has spread a little in the past few days.”
“But fortunately, there were not many people present at the time, only about ten, and they were all inner sect disciples.”
“These days, it’s still only spreading within the inner sect, most of the disciples in it are focusing on cultivation or out for training.”
“I have also cut off all propagation routes, only two people in the Outer Court just found out about this, and they have been taken away temporarily after my warning!”
“The Sunset Sect should have had no chance to know about it!”
Upon hearing the Third Elder’s words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Nie Xuan, the Chief of Qingxi Peak, said, “That’s good! With Jiang Yuan taking action, we should secure the ownership of this vein! When the time comes, we will have to reward him with one or two percent of the profits!”
Nie Xuan’s face showed a kind smile, Kou Dong’s response a few days ago, made him realize Jiang Yuan’s true potential.
His excellent direct disciple, Kou Dong, was born with a transcendent perception, he can tell who is strong and who is weak at a glance.
At that time, Jiang Yuan was merely at the tenth level of meridian breaking, and was already quite a threat to Kou Dong, indicating some issues.
You should know that, although Kou Dong was only ranked at the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm on the Heavenly Ranking, his actual cultivation is at the fifth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm.
Many people, including him, have underestimated Jiang Yuan to some extent.
Just then, a voice suddenly echoed, “I disagree, Jiang Yuan has been in the sect for more than half a year and hasn’t made any contributions, but has enjoyed quite a bit of resources!”
A grim man slowly stood out.
Upon hearing this, Nie Xuan glanced at him, “Wu Yin, as the Peak Master of Slanting Moon Peak, what are you saying? For a true heaven genius, the greatest contribution to the sect comes from successful cultivation. Do you expect such a genius to handle trivial matters?”
Wu Yin shook his head and said, “That’s not how it works, the Supreme Mystery Sect places great emphasis on fairness, how can we make exceptions in this manner! This time, let him go into battle as part of the sect’s assigned task. As for rewards, one vein is not enough for our seven peaks to divide, giving one or two percent to a disciple is too outrageous!”
At this moment, the Chief of Divine Maiden Peak, Chief Mu, nodded her head.
“Giving one to two percent is indeed too extravagant! But we can’t give no rewards either, I suggest we reward him with some sect achievement points and access to read techniques in the Technique Hall!”
Watching the Chiefs below ready to squabble again due to the distribution of benefits, Lu Qingshan said indifferently.
“Let’s put this matter aside for now, we’ll judge his contribution later, if he turns the tides, he must be heavily rewarded, we can’t let lower ranks lose their morale.”
Upon hearing Sect Leader Lu Qingshan weighing in, everyone stopped arguing.
They all bowed in agreement, “We will follow the Sect Leader’s command.”
