intent he hardly understood to occasionally put on a show.Although I still possess a technique that all cultivators yearn for, it's not something I can wield at will.When your opponent reveals a powe...Actually, speaking strictly, in almost half a year, Jiang Yun had only improved two realms, from the fifth level of Tongmai to the seventh level of Tongmai.

The reason for the slowdown in his cultivation advancement was twofold: on one hand, he needed to ensure his current realm was solid; on the other hand, he finally realized that after opening the sixth meridian, although the impurities within the seventh meridian had become extremely fine, the difficulty of clearing it had significantly increased.

To put it simply, the opening of the first six meridians was a swift process for Jiang Yun, allowing him to achieve a seamless flow of energy in an instant. However, unlocking the seventh meridian took him a full half month.

Although this speed is already unimaginable for any other cultivator, even those who are prodigies, it would take months or even years for them to cross the threshold of the sixth level. But Jiang Yun felt it was too slow.

However, he didn't find this strange at all, because since all cultivators regard the sixth level of meridian opening as a watershed, there must be a reason for it.

Especially after entering the seventh level of the meridian, he realized that it was not easy to consolidate this realm. Therefore, Jiang Yun did not continue to open up his meridians.

>In the end, whether it was facing Yu Xuan repeatedly in the initial stages or single-handedly killing nearly thirty ferocious beasts within the trapped beast forest, he finally stabilized his seventh level of meridian pathway cultivation.

Now he naturally has to begin to attack the eighth meridian, making himself even stronger!

……

Another three days passed. Jiang Yun looked inside his body. The eighth meridian had only been opened by a quarter, and the effects of the two Qi-attracting Pills had vanished.

From within his body, he withdrew his gaze. Ginger Yun furrowed her brow and stared intently at the air, muttering to herself: “This Qi-gathering Pill, even though its efficacy has been increased threefold, even if two of them are combined, the amount of spiritual energy it draws in is still too little!”

"I wish I could raise Dan's efficiency even more!"

This idea made Ginger Cloud chuckle wryly, shaking his head. A black stone that could increase the potency of a pill by three times was already incredibly rare. He wasn't satisfied with that and wanted even more. He was being too greedy.

However, suddenly a thought popped into his mind, and his eyes lit up as he said: "Although turning stone into water only allows the pill's effect to increase by three times, this Yijin Pill was originally just an ordinary first-grade pill. Even with a three-fold increase in effectiveness, it would at most reach the level of a human-grade pill. But if it were a first-grade Heavenly Pill, and its effectiveness increased by another three times, wouldn't that satisfy my requirements"

In the depths of Mang Mountain, although Ginger Cloud was skilled in alchemy, his grandfather had not told him about the grades of medicinal pills. It wasn't until he arrived at the Wudao Sect that he learned the truth within the Sutra Pavilion. It turned out that the medicinal pills consumed by cultivators were divided into a very detailed nine ranks and four levels.

Nine ranks refer to the classification of elixirs based on their types, while four grades refer to the further division of the same type of elixir into heaven, earth, human, and common grades according to their efficacy after refining.

Like the Qì-Invigorating Pill, it belongs to a first-grade pill. However, Sha Jing Shan's gift of the Qì-Invigorating Pill to Jiang Yun was extremely ineffective, belonging to the worst type of ordinary pills.

"It's just a first-grade Heavenly Pill. Where can I get it" Jiang Yun reached out and gently tapped his head, and after a moment, a smile appeared on his face: "Asking others is not as good as asking oneself. I can refine it myself, it's just that I don't have the materials on hand, but these materials are easy to handle. There must be plenty in the Hunter's Forest!"

Thinking of this, Jiang Yun suddenly jumped up, pushed open the door, and went to Dongfang Bo and his second senior sister's room. Finding they were still not back, he felt a little disappointed and quietly turned around, walked down Zangfeng, and prepared to go to Kunshulin again.

……

At the peak of Jian Dao Peak, Wei Zhengyang, the master of the peak, looked at Fang Yu'xuan who stood respectfully before him. A trace of hatred could not help but appear on his seemingly kind face.

He hates not Fang Yuxian, but Jiang Yun!

Although Fang Yuxian appears unscathed at the moment, Wei Zhengyang knows better than anyone that his beloved disciple's heart is carrying a knot that is impossible to unravel!

This knot in my heart comes from the blurry figure that appeared in the burnt talisman Jiang Yun used. To be precise, it's the sword strike the blurry figure casually unleashed!

Fang Yu-hsien's talent, while not astonishing, was indeed not weak in swordsmanship. His future prospects are limitless.

However, the blurry figure's sword strike truly frightened Fang Yu-xuan, a fellow swordsman. It instilled fear in his heart and even caused him to waver in his pursuit of the sword path.

As a swordsman, you have to be unwavering and fearless. If you start to feel fear in your heart, how can you possibly continue forward with courage

Moreover, for cultivators, no matter what kind of path they pursue, once a knot is formed in their heart, when the day comes to impact a higher realm, this knot has a very high probability of transforming into a demon in the heart. It will not only hinder the impact on the realm, but even have the risk of losing one's life.

Therefore, Wei Zhengyang even hated Jiang Yun more than Fang Yuxuan, and naturally he was very anxious to help Fang Yuxuan resolve his knot.

Gently rubbing his temples, Wei Zhengyang subdued the hatred on his face and spoke in a soft voice: "Yuxuan, don't mind that sword strike, don't think about it at all. Put aside all your burdens and focus on pursuing your swordsmanship!"

"Yes!"

Although he agreed verbally, there was no relaxation on Fang Yuxuan's handsome face. Apparently, he couldn't truly let go.

After a moment's pause, Wei Zhengyang spoke again: "From today onwards, you will go to the Sword Cave to retreat. As for other matters, naturally, your master will take care of them."

Hearing the words "Sword Grotto", Fang Yu-xuan's body trembled slightly, and a hint of joy finally appeared on his face. He hurriedly clasped his fists in a salute and said, "Thank you, Master!"

Then, Wei Zhengyang waved his hand and threw a jade bottle to Fang Yuxuan. "Your sword has now taken shape and you've touched the threshold of sword intent. There are some Sword Intent Pills inside. I hope that during this closed-door training, you can truly comprehend sword intent! Once you succeed, when you come out, I will report to the Sect Master and let you become a successor disciple!"

Fang Yu-xuan grasped the jade bottle, suddenly raising his head, a smile spreading across his entire face!

"Xu'er, you must remember this, right now, you are the number one disciple of the inner sect of my Wudaozong. In the future, you may become the head of my Jian Dao Peak, and even the suzerain of my Wudaozong. When that time comes, if you look back, those ants will still just be ants!"

Although Fang Yu-xuan's eyes still held a trace of unyielding hatred, Master's words at this moment brought a radiance to his face, as if reborn!

Master's teachings, Xuan'er will keep in mind! However, Xuan'er has a request!

"Say!"

"That Ginger Cloud's life, Xiner will take with his own hands!"

"Haha!" Hearing Fang Yu-xuan's request, Wei Zheng-yang couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Good, good! This is worthy of being my disciple, Wei Zheng-yang. Don't worry, that bumpkin's life, master will leave it for you!"

"Huan'er takes his leave!"

Looking at his disciple's departure, Wei Zhengyang nodded slightly. "Xuan'er's knot stems from Jiang Yun. Only by killing Jiang Yun with his own hands can he possibly unravel it. Since that's the case, I'll give Jiang Yun a little more time to live. However, death is not an option, but living punishment is inevitable! At the very least, I'll teach him a lesson and make him remember."

"Zheng Yuan!"

As Wei Zhengyang spoke, a young man in green robes, roughly the same age as Fang Yuxian, appeared before him. Though his appearance was unremarkable, there was an undeniable aura of killing intent in his eyes. He bowed and said, "Greetings, Peak Master!"

Although Zheng Yuan is an inner disciple of Jian Dao Peak, he is not a disciple of Wei Zhengyang, so he calls Wei Zhengyang "Peak Master".

Wei Zhengyang nodded and said, "I have something I need you to do. If you do it well, I will take you as my disciple!"

Zheng Yuan's eyes lit up instantly and he said, "Disciple will do his best!"

"You go to Zang Feng and get your senior brother back. Remember, you can't kill him!"

Zheng Yuan was slightly taken aback and said, "Master, it's simple to avenge my senior brother, but Cangfeng..."

Before Zheng Yuan could finish his words, Wei Zhengyang waved his hand to interrupt and said: "That Dongfang Bo and Situ Jing had already left several days ago. Now there is only Jiang Yun on Cangfeng Mountain. This is a rare opportunity!"

Zheng Yuan's eyes flashed with a cold light as he said, "Disciple understands!"t.Although Li Yue was captured by Jiang Yun and forcibly brought into Xiao Village, after more than a year of getting along.Especially after seeing how Jiang Yun treated their Li Village the same way...
