Chapter 21 Intermediate
…………
“With the changes, your students’ on-the-spot reaction and psychological quality will be put to the test even more. So I want to especially praise Zhao Tingxi and Mo Fan. Without them, this field training might have resulted in bloodshed.” Zhan Kong also added.
"Okay, everyone, don't stay here anymore, get ready and pack up!"
Soon, all the students from Tianlan Magic High School were taken away. After a short rest, they took a bus and left Xuefeng Mountain Station.
But Zhao Tingxi did not leave. He was now sitting in Zhan Kong's office, drinking tea with Zhan Kong.
“Zhao Tingxi, what level have you reached now?” Zhan Kong asked after taking a sip of tea.
Zhao Tingxi did not hide it: "A week ago, I just entered the beginner level three."
Zhan Kong nodded: "It has been two years since you awakened. From the first level of the elementary stage to the third level of the elementary stage, your progress is still very fast. As far as I know, your cultivation speed is not slow even among some big families."
"Oh? Normally, for the children of wealthy families in big cities with outstanding talents, how long does it usually take for them to reach the middle level?"
“Generally speaking, talented children from aristocratic families can usually reach the intermediate level in high school. In that circle, such a speed of cultivation is not surprising. Why, do you want to compete with them to see who can reach the intermediate level faster?” Zhan Kong said with a smile.
"Well, why not?" Zhao Tingxi did not hide his confidence at all: "In one year, why don't I think about entering the intermediate level? I believe that my talent should not be worse than others, right?"
Zhan Kong agreed with this: "You have a strong talent for cultivation, which cannot be displayed in a small place like Bo City. Believe me, as long as the resources are in place, it is not difficult to reach the intermediate level within a year."
“So, this depends on Boss Zhankong!” Zhao Tingxi said with a smile: “Boss Zhankong, I remember that your military has a great demand for my poison. There just happens to be a suitable pharmacist…”
I knew it! ! !
Zhan Kong knew what Zhao Tingxi was going to do when he saw his expression, but since it was not an excessive request, he nodded and agreed.
"Okay, since you need money and I need poison, we can each get what we need. But you have to be careful, you have to distinguish the priority between making poison and practicing! For you at this stage, practicing is more important than making poison." Finally, Zhan Kong also gave Zhao Tingxi a reminder.
Zhao Tingxi nodded: "Don't worry, I know what's going on!"
…………
The time spent in cultivation always passes quickly, and more than half a year has passed just like that.
On this day, Zhao Tingxi was practicing at home.
Now he has been in seclusion and has started to make the breakthrough to the intermediate level!
This brings us to one of the wonderful uses of ruby. Some time ago, Zhao Tingxi discovered that ruby can decompose essence or residual soul and convert it into the purest energy.
After discovering this, Zhao Tingxi never stopped hunting demons. After harvesting the residual souls, he decomposed them and converted them into energy for cultivation.
After adjusting himself to the best condition, Zhao Tingxi did not hesitate at all and mobilized all the pure energy in the ruby and pulled it into his stardust. The dark green stardust flashed brightly.
Outside the stardust, a faint light curtain envelops them, and the light blooming from within the stardust is about to break through this hazy light curtain.
The light curtains are like eggshells or silkworm chrysalises, wrapping the energy that is about to break out of the cocoon. They seem to be motionless under the impact of magic energy, but there is obvious swelling due to the surge of internal energy.
"Break it for me!!!"
The energy drawn from the ruby was directly injected into Zhao Tingxi's stardust. They were like countless small rivers flowing back and gathering into a river. The silent river suddenly surged, and the rolling waves hit the dam on the river bank! !
Cracks finally appeared on the outer layer of the silkworm pupa, and the spider veins spread around in an irregular manner, becoming larger and larger.
The bigger the crack got, the more Zhao Tingxi felt like his head was about to explode.
At first, when he heard that the breakthrough would be painful, he was a little disdainful. He thought that since he had the ruby protecting his body and was a time traveler, the breakthrough shouldn't be painful, right?
You know, my cultivation speed is much faster than others, so when I break through, will it be a little different from others?
It turned out that I was wrong, and I still suffered the same amount of pain!
The mental shock that was fed back during the breakthrough was like a sword piercing through the brain, or like the ocean under a storm, surging and colliding. This kind of mental pain was something Zhao Tingxi had never experienced before during his cultivation. It was a thousand times stronger than the exhaustion that exhausted all his energy. It was like the torture and destruction in a nightmare...
If you relax a little bit or give up a little bit during this process, all the offensive will disappear in an instant and you will have to start all over again! !
Zhao Tingxi felt like his brain was about to explode, and veins were all over his face, but he didn't dare to let it go.
This feeling is like one's spiritual world being torn apart. The pain is no less than being torn apart by demons. People with weaker willpower would have given up on breaking through long ago.
Zhao Tingxi's dark green stardust had gradually dimmed under this mental shock.
Just when the dark green stardust dimmed to the extreme, suddenly, the stardust burst out with a dazzling light, filling Zhao Tingxi's spiritual world at the fastest speed!
They fly by, they envelope, they seem to be creating a new small universe of their own, their own star home.
However, the creation this time is no longer the tiny stardust like fireflies in the corner. They have created a cluster of stars like clouds. Each one of them is full of luster. Complement each other!
"Stardust turns into nebula!!!"
Feeling all this, Zhao Tingxi's blood boiled.
Stardust is just a small piece of dust in the universe. They exist, but they are extremely small, and the energy they can provide to magicians is also quite limited.
However, nebulae and stardust are completely different. The brilliance of a whole group of stars occupying a huge area can be described as bright. They are so clearly visible in the vast spiritual universe, and they dot the chaotic spiritual world!
