Chapter 228: Expanding Once Again!
“Rumble…!”
The aura on his body had become completely quiet. Around Su Yi, who sat cross-legged, an aura many times stronger than before emanated from within his body, as though awakening, bringing with it a trace of immense might and an air of destruction.
“Crack…”
Suddenly, both of his eyes opened. Two blinding glows that seemed almost tangible shot out simultaneously from his eyes. The glow flashed briefly before gradually subsiding into his firm, brooding gaze.
“Yuan Xuan Realm Sixth Grade!”
When he first sensed the transformation within his body, Su Yi’s face gradually flushed with shock, and he had difficulty coming back to his senses.
However, his shock wasn’t entirely due to reaching Yuan Xuan Realm Sixth Grade. After ceasing his continuous breakthrough, he was already near the peak of Yuan Xuan Realm Sixth Grade. Instead, due to Su Yi’s tremendous perseverance in forcefully compressing the Yuan Qi and aura in his body, his cultivation had been suppressed and suspended at the early stages of Yuan Xuan Realm Sixth Grade.
Yet how could Su Yi not be shocked at breaking through four grades continuously, from the later stages of Yuan Xuan Realm Second Grade to Yuan Xuan Realm Sixth Grade? The higher the cultivation, the harder it was to breakthrough.
Previously, when he had first consumed the Spiritual Essence, he had only broken through from Yuan Soul Realm Third Grade to Yuan Soul Realm Sixth Grade—three grades in total. But that was only at the Yuan Soul Realm. Now, Su Yi had broken through from Yuan Xuan Realm Second Grade to Yuan Xuan Realm Sixth Grade. Even the gap between Yuan Xuan Realm Second Grade and Third Grade alone was incomparable to the entire Yuan Soul Realm.
What shocked Su Yi even more was that despite breaking through four grades continuously, he could still feel surging, unrefined energy from the demonic core inside his body. This energy seeped into his bones, muscles, and limbs, as though it could erupt at any moment. Though the energy had now permeated his body and was extremely massive, it no longer surged chaotically, having been forcefully suppressed by Su Yi.
Su Yi realized he had refined barely two or three-tenths of the massive energy from the demonic core, while a large portion remained unrefined. With just this small fraction refined, he had already broken through four grades in the Yuan Xuan Realm. How frightening was this energy?!
As he examined his internal state, a slight smile emerged on his shocked face. Inside his Dantian, the Yuan Qi Whirlpool had grown significantly larger than when he was at Yuan Xuan Realm Second Grade—not just twice or thrice, not even ten times, but far beyond that. Even the spiritual power in his mind had increased tremendously.
Slightly clenching his fists, Su Yi could feel surging energy coursing through his body, ready to be used at his command. With this power, he felt confident he could easily crush a Serene Void Brutal Heavenly Leopard of the Demonic Xuan Realm Fifth Grade, surpassing and directly suppressing it.
“There seem to be changes again…”
Su Yi muttered deeply. Not only had his Yuan Qi improved, but his physique, spiritual power, and other aspects had also enhanced. He could sense changes in the mysterious space in his mind as well.
Glancing around, Su Yi found himself on a clifftop surrounded by ancient sky-high trees and jagged rocks covered in dragon-like vines. Not far away lay scattered bones and blood traces left by the slain Iron Armor Demonic Rhinoceros.
Light emerged in the empty sky above the cliff. It was morning, with the sun just rising, and a thick, misty white smoke fluctuated in the light.
Su Yi spotted Su Tian Que nearby, the small figure enveloped in a naked flames-like light circle, emitting a scorching aura while spreading uneven, obscured radiance. Though unable to confirm Su Tian Que’s origins or the rumored peacock identity—as peacocks were said to no longer exist in this world—Su Yi was certain this fellow had a significant background.
The area seemed temporarily safe with no beasts around. Uncertain how long he had been there, Su Yi’s eyes twitched as he summoned the mysterious space.
“This is…”
Inside the mysterious space, Su Yi lifted his head in astonishment. The entire space now rippled with holy light, faintly fluctuating with an immense, mighty aura as though descended from Ancient times.
What truly surprised Su Yi was that the space, originally 500 zhang in area, had expanded to more than twice its size. The mysterious space now stretched to 1000 zhang, with rich heaven and earth energy creating a hazy environment that emitted a faint radiance.
Previously, when the space was 500 zhang, an undispersed energy fog had drifted in the air. Now, though weakened, the energy remained far richer than typical treasure lands.
“My lord!”
Beast language transmitted as creatures gathered around.
“Swish swish…”
Two golden light-like tiny figures swept out like yellow glows, landing directly on Su Yi’s shoulders affectionately—Da Bao and Xiao Ling. The other beasts included Fire-Eyes Beast Tiger, Golden Python, Fiery Red Demonic Mink, Flaming Beast Bird, and others who had been cultivating inside the mysterious space.
Su Yi lifted his head and surveyed each beast, smiling as he sensed their auras. Every beast had broken through by a large margin.
“You guys… Demonic Xuan Realm!”
Su Yi’s heart thumped involuntarily when he sensed Da Bao and Xiao Ling’s auras, which had clearly reached Demonic Xuan Realm First Grade.
“Gulp…”
Su Yi’s throat grew hot as he swallowed.
Everyone knew beasts differed greatly from humans. Though naturally born with robust bodies or talents for speed or physical toughness, Heaven maintained fairness by making beasts’ cultivation speed much slower than humans’. While a typical human cultivator with decent talent might need ten years to reach Yuan Xuan Realm, a beast required at least twenty years to reach Demonic Xuan Realm.
Yet now, Da Bao and Xiao Ling had obviously reached Demonic Xuan Realm First Grade. Su Yi had witnessed their birth, meaning they had spent only a few months cultivating.
