Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2205: Chapter 2209: Tempering Complete

”Eastern forest?”

Hu Yiqiu paused upon hearing this, his brow furrowing slightly. He glanced down at Fire Mountain and said in a solemn voice, ”Alright! For Young Jiang’s sake, after the Mingqian Banquet, we shall make a trip to the Eastern forest!”

”However, there’s a Lei Ming Beast there, and it could be problematic. I’ve heard that even the powerful figures from the Domain Lord’s Mansion couldn’t handle it back then!”

Sang Zhenye’s expression grew serious.

”We’ll go and take a look. If we can avoid disturbing the Lei Ming Beast, that would be best. But if we do, we’ll distract it and give Young Jiang time to seize the Spiritual Fire.”

Hu Yiqiu pondered for a moment before speaking resolutely.

Sang Zhenye glanced at Hu Yiqiu and nodded heavily.

They knew very well what kind of magical beast the Lei Ming Beast was. For Hu Yiqiu to propose distracting it for Jiang Chen showed how highly he valued Jiang Chen in his heart!

”Call Jiang Chen then, let’s not really delay the time. We’re so close to Mingyuan City, we should arrive two days earlier!”

After a while, Sang Zhenye spoke softly.

Hu Yiqiu nodded slightly, a strand of Divine Sense emerging from within him, intending to transmit to Jiang Chen.

But just as his Divine Sense began to leave his body, a sudden change in Fire Mountain made him abandon the idea.

Inside the volcano.

Jiang Chen, who had been continuously absorbing and refining in cycles, finally showed other movements.

After another absorption, Jiang Chen didn’t continue refining. Instead, he expelled the violent energy outside, leaving only the pure Spiritual Energy to replenish himself.

Once the connection between his body and the heavens and earth was blocked, a deep aura spread from Jiang Chen’s body.

An intense oppressive aura instantly filled the volcano’s mouth, enveloping all the cultivators currently training.

”This is...”

”It seems like Jiang Di has grown much stronger, but his realm hasn’t improved!”

”What’s going on? Why does this aura make me feel like I’m not his match anymore! This...”

Many Late Divine Infant Realm cultivators on the platform stared at Jiang Chen in surprise, one of them full of disbelief, as he felt he was no match for Jiang Chen.

”This... The aura has thickened quite a bit, yet there’s no increase in realm... Has he refined his Spiritual Power!?”

Instructor Lin, on the platform over the lava, suddenly reacted, exclaiming.

Instructor Lin had already entered the Virtual Refinement Realm Peak and touched the threshold of the Unity Realm Stage, preparing for refining Spiritual Power, which could be done once entering the Unity Realm Stage.

Therefore, he quickly realized what Jiang Chen was doing!

”Refining Spiritual Power? Isn’t that only necessary after reaching the Unity Realm Stage?”

Beside him, Fire Phoenix exclaimed in astonishment.

”This... By logic, yes. As for why Jiang Chen is doing this here, I am also unclear!”

Instructor Lin nodded, looking at Jiang Chen with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Buzz buzz buzz!

The deep aura gradually receded. Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes, a sharp gleam shooting out.

”I finally understand why teachers have always said that refining Spiritual Power before reaching the Unity Realm Stage is unrewarding! Without substantial Spiritual Power support, refined Spiritual Power might not remain pure. Solidified Spiritual Power and unsolidified Spiritual Power are incompatible.”

Jiang Chen spoke to himself with a sense of comprehension: ”Unless a certain realm is reached, where the Power of the Great Dao can be used to harmonize Spiritual Powers of differing densities, their incompatibility during battle could cause significant trouble!”

Jiang Chen then smiled slightly; ”However, this trouble doesn’t affect me!”

At present, the Spiritual Power in Jiang Chen’s Dantian was just absorbed and transformed, unrefined. Meanwhile, the Spiritual Power that had been refined was sealed within his apertures.

”Two months of refining, Spiritual Power solidified by thirty percent. When all my Spiritual Power is compressed and solidified to the point it can no longer be refined, I should be able to unleash the Five Elements Demon Sealing Sword!”

Expectation flickered in Jiang Chen’s eyes.

Heaven Rank Battle Techniques are rare across the entire Canglan Continent, and with the guidance of combat skills, the power of Great Dao attacks will be multiplied. Jiang Chen eagerly anticipated what level of combat strength he could achieve by then.

Hmm?

Slightly surprised, Jiang Chen looked higher up, his figure flashing as he directly shot out from Fire Mountain’s mouth towards the sky.

However, upon reaching ten thousand meters altitude, Jiang Chen felt a tremendous force preventing his progress.

”Heavenly Momentum, huh? It seems without sufficient cultivation, even higher landscapes remain out of reach!”

Jiang Chen sighed softly, looking upward, calling out gently: ”Master, teacher, aren’t you coming down? If not, I’ll be leaving, I can’t ascend higher!”

”Haha!”

”You youngster!”

Loud laughter echoed, Hu Yiqiu and Sang Zhenye appeared before Jiang Chen.

”How do you feel? You youngster seems to have grown stronger again!”

Hu Yiqiu examined Jiang Chen curiously.

”Master, teacher, you were right. Refining Spiritual Power before Unity Realm Stage is indeed unrewarding for others.”

Jiang Chen spoke with a light laugh.

”Indeed, before Unity Realm Stage, one’s apertures remain closed, unable to segment Spiritual Power. Upon reaching Unity Realm Stage, employing the Power of Dao seeds to open apertures allows compartmentalization of Spiritual Power.”

”At that time, refining piece by piece will not result in mixed Spiritual Power, nor will refined Spiritual Power be integrated with unrefined Spiritual Power causing inconvenience. Additionally, refined Spiritual Power remains susceptible to assimilation by unrefined Spiritual Power, resulting in wasted effort!”

Sang Zhenye felt somewhat gratified, although two months were wasted, allowing Jiang Chen to comprehend this truth was worthwhile, much better than repeated futile attempts would be.

”What do you mean by ’others’?”

Hu Yiqiu caught a different meaning in Jiang Chen’s words.

Sang Zhenye blinked, contemplating Jiang Chen’s words, showing a trace of confusion.

”As teacher mentioned, apertures allow segmentation. Serendipitously, my apertures are already open, so my refining wasn’t in vain!”

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, looked at Sang Zhenye, and spoke softly.

”What did you say? Your, your apertures are already open?!”

Hu Yiqiu exclaimed, gripping Jiang Chen’s hand, a powerful yet gentle Spiritual Power permeating Jiang Chen’s body.

Jiang Chen cooperatively opened an aperture, guiding Hu Yiqiu’s Spiritual Power inside.

”Haha! Good! Good! Good!”

Hu Yiqiu withdrew his Spiritual Power, laughing aloud: ”You youngster, indeed, a genius! To have opened an aperture already, if you continue to open them, upon reaching Unity Realm Stage, everything will become much easier!”
