Thunderclap Mountain, the first region!
Cheng Fei sat under the Thunderbolt Tree's tree with his eyes closed in meditation!
In the Thunderclap Mountain, the aura of the zhenqi was very strong. Cheng Fei had just broken through the fifth level of the zhenqi.
The power of his zhenqi had risen to five realms, far surpassing Cheng Fei's imagination. It was a pity that this was the Thunderclap Mountain and could not be verified.
"The fifth stage of the zhenqi has been stabilized. The next step is to wholeheartedly focus on comprehending this Thunderbolt Tree's sapling and strive to develop that technique before the Genius Competition!"
Cheng Fei stuck close to the tree trunk, ignoring the lightning attacks from the branches tree.
At most, the power of the lightning was only equivalent to the power of Qi Cultivating Stage. With Cheng Fei's physical strength, coupled with his zhenqi, he could completely ignore it.
"According to Brother Heaven-Returning, the Thunderclap Mountain's eight hundred li of the Thunder End Region was formed because of the existence of the Thunderbolt Tree. The Thunderbolt Tree is a tree of lightning, and there is an endless amount of lightning in that place. "
"Therefore, a place with Thunderbolt Tree is definitely the best place to comprehend the zhenqi."
Cheng Fei closed his eyes and calmed his mind, thinking about the ancient tree in front of him.
First the outline, then the trunk, then the branches, then the leaves...
In his mind, the outline of the ancient tree gradually became clearer, and a towering ancient tree slowly took shape.
"Outline, trunk, branches, leaves... "Roots, branches, veins, leaves …"
The structure of an ancient tree was definitely not as simple as it looked.
The Spirit of Heaven and Earth, a Thunderbolt Tree that gathered thunder and lightning essence, even if it was only a child tree, its structure was extremely complicated.
As Cheng Fei delved deeper in, the difficulty of the visualization process became greater and greater.
However, the benefits were also obvious.
The zhenqi that was everywhere in the Thunderclap Mountain surrounded Cheng Fei and was extremely intimate with him, allowing him to comprehend what he wanted to. Furthermore, as the outline of the Thunderbolt Tree grew clearer and clearer in his mind, the zhenqi by Cheng Fei's side became thicker and thicker.
Under this kind of situation, Cheng Fei's zhenqi realm unknowingly advanced by leaps and bounds!
The zhenqi that had originally only just broken through to the fifth stage of the Refinement Realm gradually solidified, and then once again advanced on the path to the fifth stage.
One hour, four hours …
One day, two days …
Time slowly passed as Cheng Fei continued to meditate.
The Small Divine Eagles stayed by Cheng Fei's side the whole time, comprehending the zhenqi at the same time.
Because of Cheng Fei's cultivation, the zhenqi here far surpassed the other areas of the Thunderclap Mountain, and was even easier to be felt and understood.
Small Divine Eagles s were Void Lightning Condors and were born with the ability to use both Spatial and Lightning Primordial Qi.
Although he was a Divine Beast, even if he did not cultivate on his own, the Small Divine Eagles's attainments in zhenqi would increase with age. However, this process was extremely long.
However, active cultivation could shorten this process.
Just like that, a man and a bird fell into a meditative state.
Thunderbolt Tree was born with the ability to conceal themselves, so they could very well disguise themselves.
Cheng Fei comprehended the Thunderbolt Tree, and unknowingly, he also covered his own presence, and even the Small Divine Eagles at the side was covered up as well.
Hong Zhanlei's body had already been taken care of by Cheng Fei, and in that moment, Cheng Fei, Hong Zhanlei and the Divine Eagles seemed to have disappeared from the Thunderclap Mountain.
Wei Nanzheng had sent many soldiers to search for traces of Hong Zhanlei in the Thunderclap Mountain, but the natural suppressive power of the Thunderclap Mountain was simply a headache for many soldiers, to find a certain person in the middle was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, cultivators above the Aurous Core stage were still unable to enter.
Ji Ying had also come to the Thunderclap Mountain to search for five days, and after finding nothing, he left the Thunderclap Mountain to guard outside the mountain cultivating.
After all, Ji Ying did not cultivate the zhenqi, it was useless to stay in the Thunderclap Mountain.
As the days of Da Xuan City grew closer and closer, countless geniuses began to gather at the Da Xuan City. Ji Ying bitterly waited outside the Thunderclap Mountain, but to no avail. He also left for the Da Xuan City to prepare for dealing with the Genius Competition.
Five days before Da Xuan City.
In the mountain pass at the southeast of Thunderclap Mountain, the soldier on guard closed his eyes and rested as if he was bored to death.
When the Genius Competition was close, many people went to the Da Xuan City to join in on the fun.
At the back of the pass, there was a flash of lightning.
"Damned lightning!"
The guard opened his eyes and looked into the mountain pass. He muttered to himself for a bit before he closed his eyes and went back to rest. Guarding Thunderclap Mountain Pass, this kind of situation was common, the soldiers were already used to it.
Eight hundred kilometers away from Thunderclap Mountain, three thousand kilometers away from the Da Xuan City!
A bolt of lightning appeared in mid air, revealing two figures, it was Cheng Fei and Small Divine Eagles.
"This place is eight hundred kilometers away from the Thunderclap Mountain. We shouldn't be discovered." Cheng Fei smiled and said to the Small Divine Eagles.
Cheng Fei had cultivated under the Thunderbolt Tree for nearly a month, and he had finally finished pondering over the matter before the Genius Competition began.
In his mind, a towering ancient tree landed. If one looked carefully, they would realize that this towering ancient tree was exactly the same as the Thunderbolt Tree in Thunderclap Mountain.
"After I finished comprehending one of the Thunderbolt Tree's sub-trees, my zhenqi's attainments have actually increased again. From the early fifth stage to the peak of the early fifth stage, I'm only one step away from stepping into the intermediate fifth stage." Cheng Fei lamented in his heart.
If he had enough time, he could finish visualizing all eight of the Thunderbolt Tree's subtrees. Then, he could look at the mother tree again, and Cheng Fei's zhenqi would definitely reach an unprecedented height.
It was a pity that with the Genius Competition near at hand, Cheng Fei didn't have that much time to waste.
"The position of the Genius Competition is related to whether or not I can find the ancient poisonous substance. Cheng Fei looked towards the direction of the Da Xuan City with a resolute expression.
Although Cheng Fei was still in the Seventh Level of Zhu Ji Stage Realm, relying on the zhenqi of the fifth stage, as well as many other extraordinary methods, Cheng Fei's strength could absolutely be said to be invincible under the Zhu Ji Ninth Level!
"Zhu Ji Ninth Level!"
Thinking about it, Cheng Fei's eyes lit up.
"Foundation Establishment level 8 and Zhu Ji Ninth Level are two completely different realms. A level eight Foundation Establishment can only be considered as the expert of one side, but the Zhu Ji Ninth Level is enough to guard a country. From this, you can see the weight of the two. "
The reason for this situation was that the bottleneck between the eighth level of the Foundation Establishment and the Zhu Ji Ninth Level was like the heavens. The difference in strength between the two was like a chasm.
"A Zhu Ji Ninth Level Ranker can already be called an Aurous Core stage cultivator. At any time, they could step into the Aurous Core stage and become a dragon from now on. "Although, this possibility is much smaller than the possibility of him surpassing the eighth level of Foundation Establishment to the Zhu Ji Ninth Level."
"There are many people who have yet to reach the Zhu Ji Ninth Level and have reached the Foundation Establishment stage and yet are forced to form their core. There is no hope for these people and they are only fake pills. True geniuses are nothing to look down upon."
For example, Hong Yuan and Tan Tiangui had broken through with a fake core. On the surface, they were only Aurous Cores, but in the Qing Xu Sect, they could only be Outer Sect Elders s.
"Thus, cultivators with good spirits and talent, will mostly cultivate to the Zhu Ji Ninth Level before making a breakthrough."
"To pursue a higher cultivation realm, one must also cultivate one's true qi to an extremely high level."
"Once such a person breaks through, he would be an absolute powerhouse among the same level. Killing someone of a higher level would be nothing more than an ordinary feat!"
