Chapter 68: Chapter 68 - Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Realm, Becoming an

The spirit energy in Qi Ming’s body surged into the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Embryo in his hand. Immediately, wisps of sword qi appeared on the Sword Dao Green Lotus, and a thread-like light spread.

Upon closer inspection, he could sense the power of the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Embryo. When it erupted at full power, it was enough to crush a Core Formation realm cultivator.

Moreover…

In the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Embryo, there were twelve powers: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Ice, Wind, Lightning, Yin, Yang, Time, and Space.

These twelve were all controlled by the Sword Dao, reaching a perfect state of unison to evolve into Chaos.

Very strong!

Very strong!

“The Chaos Green Lotus Sword Embryo is already powerful enough.”

Qi Ming said, “If I refine the World Piercing Sword and Sword Mountain, what level can I reach when the three are combined?”

Thinking of this, Qi Ming was very excited.

Ding!

“The Chaos Green Lotus Sword Scripture has been AFK Farming for a day under the 10,000 times enhancement. Your spirit energy has increased tremendously. It’s estimated that you can break through in a day under the 10,000 times enhancement.”

Buzz! Buzz!

The Chaos Green Lotus Sword Scripture circulated on its own. Qi Ming seemed to have become a black hole that devoured spiritual qi. With the Falling Cloud Peak as the center, vast spiritual qi surged over.

From afar, on the top of the Falling Cloud Peak, there was a layer of white cloud immortal fog.

The phenomenon subsided.

“Okay.”

Qi Ming opened his eyes and felt the changes in his body. His spirit energy was abundant, “This AFK Farming cultivation speed is indeed very fast.”

“I can break through to the late-stage Foundation Establishment realm tomorrow.”

Ding!

“The Heavenly Nine Pill Scripture has been cultivated for a day under the enhancement of 10,000 times. It has already been cultivated. The host’s understanding of alchemy has increased greatly. You have become an alchemist.”

“This is…” Qi Ming’s tone paused. He immediately entered a state of enlightenment. In this state, countless understanding of alchemy surged into his mind, and all kinds of mysteries appeared.

He directly became an alchemist.

One had to know, to become a true alchemist, one needed the corresponding talent in pill refinement. They also needed to memorize a large amount of spiritual herb knowledge and experience the pill refinement process repeatedly before gradually mastering the pill refinement technique and finally condensing the Pill Flame.

For one with average talent, it might take more than ten years.

As for those with extremely high talent, they would take a year or two.

Only extremely talented alchemy geniuses would need a month or two to become a true alchemist. Now, Qi Ming only used a day to become a true alchemist.

“I see.”

Qi Ming comprehended all kinds of alchemy and the corresponding knowledge recorded in the Heavenly Nine Pill Scripture, “On the path of alchemy, alchemists are divided from low to high according to their cultivation realm.”

“They are: Qi Refinement Pill Master, Foundation Establishment Pill Master, Core Formation Pill Master…”

“Every major level is divided in detail into four grades: Pill Rune, Pill Cloud, Pill Spirit, and Pill Tribulation.”

“Generally speaking, after successfully refining the pill, the pill will have a ‘pill rune’ on it after the pill is completed. It will be a low-grade pill. If a pill cloud appears, it will be a medium-grade pill. If a pill spirit is born at the moment the pill is completed, it will be a high-grade pill.”

“Top-grade pills are even more ridiculous. There will be a Pill Tribulation.”

Under the enhancement of 10,000 times, Qi Ming cultivated the Heavenly Nine Pill Scripture. Although he had not refined a pill once, he had crossed several levels in a row and reached the Pill Spirit level Qi Refinement realm.

“Although the Heavenly Nine Pill Scripture is not bad, it’s only a pill scripture that can only reach the level of a Core Formation Pill Master.”

Qi Ming said, “However, it’s enough for me for the time being.”

Ding!

“You have been AFK Farming the game dungeon ‘Delilah Blood Clan Castle’ for a day. You have cleared the game dungeon once. You have received: one Origin Water and 100,000 low-grade spirit stones.”

“Origin Water.” Qi Ming was overjoyed.

Item: Origin Water.

Introduction: Mysterious water that contains the origin profoundness. Legend has it that it is an immortal item that flowed from the source of the Immortal World to the human world. It possesses many profoundnesses and can be used to refine Dharma treasures, refine medicinal pills, and so on.

“It’s indeed the material needed to refine the World Piercing Sword.”

Qi Ming said, “That’s great.”

The next day, in the evening.

Huo Changqing began to return to the Falling Cloud Peak from the Green Cloud Market. This time, after he sold all the remaining spoils of war, he obtained a total of 397,000 medium-grade spirit stones.

The size of the Green Cloud City was still very large. Although there was a large number of resources surging into the market, it did not affect the price of the Green Cloud City too much.

Because Huo Changqing sold so many resources, he was targeted by some people again. However, after knowing that Qi Ming was behind Huo Changqing, they basically gave up on the idea that they should not have.

They did not dare to offend a legacy disciple.

However, there were still legacy disciples who sent out several Core Formation realm subordinates to follow behind Huo Changqing. They planned to attack Huo Changqing in a remote place and snatch the resources in his hands.

In a quiet corner.

“Attack.”

“Attack with all your might. Don’t show mercy.”

“Kill him!”

Boom! Boom! Boom!!!

Three Core Formation realm cultivators.

Every one of them was at the late-stage Core Formation realm. Although they were all False Cores, their strength was not weak. They grasped many Foundation Establishment spells and artifacts and surrounded Huo Changqing.

The battle erupted.

Huo Changqing was surrounded.

He controlled his sword to attack and slashed out sword qi. It was very powerful, but against three enemies in the same realm, Huo Changqing was ultimately not his match. He had already been injured many times in succession.

“Myriad Sword Technique!”

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

At this critical moment, Huo Changqing erupted with his full strength and seized the opportunity to execute the Myriad Sword Technique. In an instant, over 10,000 sword qi slashed over like a waterfall.

“What spell is this?”

“So powerful!”

“Be careful!”

The three late-stage Core Formation cultivators were shocked. When faced with this strike, they did not dare to receive it head-on. Instead, they used powerful spells to attack, defeating a portion of the Myriad Sword Technique’s power, and then dodged towards the surroundings.

Rumble!!!

A huge hole was blasted into the ground.

Swish!

Huo Changqing flew at full speed towards the Falling Cloud Peak. His speed was extremely fast, like a sword light disappearing into the horizon.

“Chase!”

“We can’t let him escape.”

“Otherwise, we won’t be able to answer when we return.”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The three late-stage Core Formation cultivators chased after him at full speed.

The two sides chased after each other.

Not long after, they had already arrived at the Falling Cloud Peak.

“What?”

Qi Ming immediately sensed it. He raised his head and looked ahead. He circulated his spirit energy and used his full vision to see the injured Huo Changqing and the three cultivators pursuing him.

Huo Changqing and the three cultivators chased and fled. Coupled with the fact that a battle had occurred, it had actually already drawn the attention of many cultivators, but they did not interfere.

In the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, the management of disciples was quite lax. Even if Qi Ming was a legacy disciple, he was still in a ‘free’ state, much less those inner and outer sect disciples.

As long as they did not cause trouble on the main peak of the twelve peaks, or blatantly murder their fellow disciples, then the Heaven Enlightenment Sect would not care about matters like fighting in other places.

Therefore, many disciples would die for various reasons during their missions.

“You’re courting death.” Qi Ming’s gaze was cold as he muttered.

Swish!

The next moment, Qi Ming’s body transformed into a sword light that directly left the Falling Cloud Peak. His figure was like a sword that tore through the sky. In the blink of an eye, he had already appeared in front of Huo Changqing.

“Master.” Huo Changqing immediately stopped and cupped his hands at Qi Ming. He said, “I’ve already sold all the spoils of war. I encountered an ambush and attack on the way back. I’m no match for them, Master. I can only rush over.”

“Mm.” Qi Ming nodded and looked at the three cultivators pursuing him.

“It’s Qi Ming!”

“What should we do now?”

“Qi Ming is a legacy disciple. We can’t touch him, but he doesn’t know our identity and background. Moreover, Qi Ming’s strength is at most in the Foundation Establishment realm. We just need to not injure Qi Ming’s life.”

As soon as the three of them finished speaking, the next moment, they attacked at the same time. One of them attacked Qi Ming, and the other two surrounded Huo Changqing. The battle erupted in an extremely short period of time.

Boom! Boom!

Huo Changqing was already injured. Coupled with the use of the Myriad Sword Technique, his spirit energy was greatly exhausted. Facing the siege of two enemies in the same realm, his situation was very dangerous.

Swish!

The Blood Fiend Ghost King, which had already reached the early-stage Core Formation realm, rushed out from the Falling Cloud Peak. Blood Fiend Ghost Qi enveloped the surroundings and assisted Huo Changqing in fighting the enemy.

“How dare you!” Qi Ming said coldly, “How dare you touch my subordinate.”

“Hehe.”

The Core Formation cultivator also sneered a few times, “Legacy Disciple Qi, my master’s status is not lower than yours. If not for the fact that you’re a legacy disciple, you would have been killed by me long ago.”

“Green Lotus Dao!”

Boom!

Qi Ming attacked and directly used the Foundation Establishment divine power spell. The twelfth-grade Chaos Green Lotus rushed out and released a powerful Sword Dao pressure, suppressing the Core Formation realm cultivator. He fell from the late-stage Core Formation realm to the mid-stage Core Formation realm.

“What a powerful divine power spell technique.”

The Core Formation cultivator was shocked, but he quickly calmed down and shouted, “As expected of a legacy disciple who can master the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Scripture. He’s really not someone we can compare to.”

“But so what? You’re only at the Foundation Establishment realm. Even if my cultivation is suppressed to the mid-stage Core Formation realm, it’ll be easy to deal with you.”

“Mystic Spirit Treasure Tower.”

The Core Formation cultivator shouted loudly. With a wave of his right hand, he took out a Dharma treasure. It was a nine-story-tall, deep-yellow pagoda. It swelled up with the wind and became the size of a mountain as it suppressed Qi Ming.

Qi Ming took a deep breath and looked at the Mystic Spirit Treasure Tower. He said in a deep voice, “I just finished refining the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Embryo yesterday. Today, I’ll use you to commemorate the birth of this intrinsic Dharma treasure.”

“Chaos Green Lotus Sword Embryo.”

Buzz!

With a thought, Qi Ming raised his right hand. A Sword Dao Green Lotus appeared in his palm. It had twelve petals and contained powerful might.

“Go!”

Qi Ming injected the boundless spirit energy in his body into it and stimulated the power of the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Embryo. This Sword Dao Green Lotus soared into the sky and slowly revolved. Countless threads of sword qi spread out.

Crack! Crack!

The two sides faced each other.

The countless threads of sword qi were like gold and jade that were unstoppable. Under the dumbfounded gaze of the Core Formation cultivator, they forcefully cut his Mystic Spirit Treasure Tower into pieces.

“This is impossible!”

The Core Formation cultivator screamed in disbelief.
