Chapter 95: 95: Promoted to the Eighth Level of Qi Cultivation, Strength Greatly Increased_l

In Misty Cloud City, Yan Yi—a cultivator from the Immortal Mist Sect-and Lu Ming, an elder from the Lu family, led a group of patrolling guards searching everywhere for any trace of Ji Bingyu and others, in an attempt to locate their hiding place.

In order to find their refuge, they practically went from door to door- conducting a thorough, carpet-style search.

Yet, no matter how earnestly they searched, they couldn’t find the slightest trace of Ji Bingyu and her companions.

Even individuals who knew them were scarce.

After all, Ji Bingyu and others usually stayed at home. Even when they encountered other cultivators, their interactions were at most superficial-an occasional nodding acquaintance.

They couldn’t exactly say they were close.

Even if they wanted to threaten them out by using acquaintances, such acquaintances were nowhere to be found.

This left them without a starting point.

“Damn it, where could these female cultivators have hidden? Could they have possibly obtained the power to vanish into thin air?”

“Moreover, they’ve been living in Misty Cloud City for such a long time, and they don’t even have one friend. How on earth do they make a living? Could it be that they are inherently rich?”

Yan Yi was utterly frustrated and felt suffocated.

He had previously asserted confidently that Ji Bingyu and her companions would eventually be caught, and they would be unable to fly away in Misty

Cloud City.

But now, he couldn’t even find a trace of their whereabouts.

As though they had disappeared into thin air in Misty Cloud City.

If he hadn’t known about Ji Bingyu and others prior to this, he would have thought that those female cultivators had suddenly emerged from nothing. “Friend Yan Yi, we can’t continue the search like this. The Ghost Demon Sect appears to be intensifying their attack. We must return to guard the city walls and prevent the demon cultivators from advancing,” warned Elder Lu Ming of the Lu family.

This was not the time to mobilize everyone for a search, not when the cultivators from the Ghost Demon Sect were lying in waiting outside the city.

Once the Seventh-Order formation was broken, they were doomed.

As for those few female cultivators, they were just a minor annoyance.

They were certainly not worth all this attention.

“Fine, if these insects can hide so well, then let’s temporarily let them be,” Yan Yi, reluctantly, yielded.

Even if they continued the search, the probability of obtaining any results was minimal.

On the contrary, his foolhardy behavior could lead to the fall of Misty Cloud City.

If that happened, he would be the culprit blamed in the Immortal Mist Sect. It was due to these reasons that they temporarily stopped after their grand search bore no fruit.

The whole of Misty Cloud City gradually returned to its former quiet state.

All the loose cultivators who couldn’t escape were drafted into the patrol team. As for whether they lived or died in the future, it all depended on luck

At this time, in a quiet room in an underground shelter.

The entire underground shelter was divided into countless rooms-some were alchemy rooms, some were rune drawing rooms, some were formation arranging rooms, and so forth. Every cultivator had their own exclusive room. Certainly, as a cultivator, they needed a quiet place to practice cultivation, so as not to disturb others.

This quiet room was naturally where Zhou Sul sequestered himself for cultivation.

Boom!

At this very moment, after Zhou Sui had calmed his mind and spirit for several days, his vigor was at its peak. He then drank a jar of spiritual wine.

Immediately the vast spiritual wine transformed into a stream of pure energy, and in an instant, it entered his body.

He immediately activated the Insect God Sutra, controlling this sudden surge

of energy.

The Foundation Establishment Divine Sense guided this energy to circulate in the meridian of his body, going one full cycle after another.

The power of his True Yuan also began to grow at a visible speed.

With his body as the center, the vast nature’s spiritual energy raged and formed a vortex of spiritual energy.

This spiritual energy entered into his spiritual root, infiltrated deep into the body’s meridians, and formed a perfect cycle.

In a single inhalation and exhalation, a unique rhythm was emitted.

Time also passed bit by bit.

After six hours.

The energy within Zhou Sui’s body suddenly surged, reaching its peak.

Boom—

in an instant, the energy formed by the spiritual wine broke through a certain bottleneck, like a flood breaking through a dam, unstoppable, reducing all obstacles to dust, invincible.

The True Yuan within the body surged like a tide, circulating in the depths of his meridians.

You could even hear the sound of the True Yuan surging, like waves hitting the rocks, raging mightily.

Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer!

At this moment, he knew that he had finally broken through the bottleneck and advanced to the realm of the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation.

Compared to before, the power of the True Yuan in his body had increased by at least a third.

The aura on his body also rose further.

The meridians in the body were once again broken through by the force of True

Yuan.

“Haha, great, I’ve finally advanced to the eighth level of Qi Cultivation.”

Zhou Sui laughed heartily, feeling extremely delighted.

After nearly two years of hard cultivation, using numerous pills and spiritual wine, and double cultivation with his partners day and night, he finally advanced from the seventh layer of Qi Cultivation to the eighth layer

It had to be said that Qi Cultivation in the later stages was extremely slow and difficult.

Especially since he only had a seventh-grade Spiritual Root, his cultivation efficiency was frighteningly sluggish.

After all, he had expended countless resources and needed two years to progress from the seventh to the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation.

If an average Qi Cultivation seventh layer cultivator wished to break through, they would need at least ten to twenty years.

No wonder, high-level Loose Cultivators were so rare.

Even if there were such cultivators, they were usually in their seventies or eighties.

But these Loose Cultivators were generally over sixty, their vitality had diminished and they had no hope of advancing to the Foundation

Establishment stage.

Undoubtedly, if he still had his former ninth-grade Spiritual Root Aptitude, he would have needed even more time to break through.

“No wonder sects are reluctant to accept cultivators with lower grade spiritual roots as disciples.”

“For lower grade spiritual root cultivators wanting to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage, it’s just too difficult.”

“Even at sixty years old, they can’t ascend to the eighth level of Qi Cultivation, let alone the ninth.”

“Though a significant amount of resources can indeed promote a lower grade spiritual root cultivator quickly to the Late Qi Cultivation stage.

“The issue is, why invest so much in cultivating a lower-grade Spiritual Root cultivator when you could cultivate two or three midgrade spiritual roots cultivators instead? The investment and return just don’t match.”

“But luckily, with the power of the Obsession Gu, my Spiritual Root Aptitude can still be improved.”

“In not too long, I should be able to reach a sixth stage Spiritual Root Aptitude, a mid-grade spiritual root.”

Zhou Sui was beginning to understand the way those sects operated.

If he were a Sect Master, he would probably also refuse cultivators with lower grade spiritual roots.

Of course, the Demon Sects were different.

The Demon Sects wouldn’t nurture their disciples at all, they only bestow them with Cultivation Techniques.

As for resources, they needed to fight for, rob, and plunder them themselves.

This was just like raising insects.

Whoever wins in the end becomes a true disciple of the Demon Sects, gaining supreme rights.

Therefore, they of course teach indiscriminately and recruit disciples desperately.

But for righteous sects, the cultivation of disciples is far more refined.

Gifted with both spirit stones and pills, along with guidance from distinguished teachers, meticulous cultivation was undertaken.

With such expenditure, naturally they couldn’t afford to recruit a large number of disciples..
