Dandy Pill God-Chapter 137: Strange Phenomenon

The Qi Gathering Pill melted in his mouth instantly, and streams of heat, rich in Spiritual Energy, surged within Zhu Fei’s body.

Zhu Fei calmed his heart and breath, and naturally began to operate the Five Elements Creation and Transformation Skill, leading the medicinal power from the Qi Gathering Pill into his meridians, and then converging it into his Dantian.

Gradually, within Zhu Fei’s Dantian, clumps of white airflow suddenly appeared.

The white airflow in Zhu Fei’s Dantian kept spinning, expanding, and finally burst forth with brilliant five-colored radiance.

As Zhu Fei’s cultivation technique continued to operate, the five-colored radiance slowly separated from his Dantian, first spreading to his limbs and bones, then transforming into droplets of crystalline light dots like liquid, before finally rushing into the Mud Pill Palace at his third eye.

"Boom!"

The Mud Pill Palace began to expand, and those five specks of five-colored light, originally as tiny as dust particles within it, clearly increased in size by half.

Even the surrounding grey mists dissipated somewhat under the expansion of the five-colored light, as if becoming thinner.

Hmm, my cultivation has clearly improved, but it seems that just one Qi Gathering Pill isn’t enough to break through to the Qi Refining Sixth Level. ƒгeewebnovёl_com

Strange, although the Qi Gathering Pill is just a lower grade of Spirit Pill, it should be enough for a cultivator in the Qi Refinement Realm to match half a year of hard training. Why does it feel like it only improved my Spiritual Power by less than a month?

No matter, if one isn’t enough then two, if two aren’t enough then three. I refuse to believe that these twelve Qi Gathering Pills can’t help my cultivation break through to the Qi Refining Sixth Level.

Zhu Fei frowned slightly, seemingly puzzled and dissatisfied with the boost in Spiritual Power from the Qi Gathering Pills.

With a single hand gesture, "pop pop," two Qi Gathering Pills flew out of the Jade Bottle and were swallowed by him in one gulp.

The medicinal power, twice as strong as before, surged into his body as Zhu Fei once again operated his cultivation technique.

This time, he observed his body’s condition even more carefully than before.

He could see a circulation of Spiritual Power throughout his body, and after the five-colored light entered his Mud Pill Palace at his third eye, it increased a bit more, causing the surrounding grey mists to also scatter again.

However, Zhu Fei’s frown was even deeper than before.

No, under normal circumstances, two Qi Gathering Pills should be enough for a Qi Refining Fifth Level cultivator to break through to the Qi Refining Sixth Level.

But now, having taken three Qi Gathering Pills, he hadn’t even brushed against the barrier to a breakthrough in cultivation. What was going on?

Could it be related to the Five Elements Creation and Transformation Skill that I’m currently cultivating?

Upon this thought, Zhu Fei suddenly made a very bold move.

He reached out once more and took four Qi Gathering Pills directly from the Jade Bottle, and without any hesitation, swallowed them down again.

"Boom!"

Medicinal power, more than four times the original, entered his body, and Zhu Fei ran the Five Elements Creation and Transformation Skill anew.

Instantly, the pain from the meridian swelling due to the excessive medicine strength disappeared in the blink of an eye.

What surfaced instead was an even more powerful Spiritual Power flowing around him than before.

Several hours later, Zhu Fei opened his eyes in astonishment, with a clear trace of disbelief on his face that he himself could hardly believe.

After continuously ingesting seven Qi Gathering Pills, equivalent to the medicinal power that would suffice for a common Qi Refining cultivator to enhance by two minor levels, it barely allowed him to touch the barrier of breakthrough.

This...?

Zhu Fei was somewhat at a loss for words. Previously at the Qi Refining Early Stage, there hadn’t been much difference between him and most other early-stage Qi Refining cultivators.

But as soon as he entered the Qi Refining Middle Stage, such a strange phenomenon had appeared, leaving him both shocked and confused.

Could it be that the Spiritual Power required for breaking through with the Five Elements Creation and Transformation Skill he was cultivating was three times more than what other cultivators required for their breakthroughs?

And this was only the situation at the Qi Refining Middle Stage. What if, later on, he entered the Late-stage Qi Refining or even the Foundation Establishment Golden Core?

Wouldn’t that mean that the resources he would need to spend on cultivating in the future would far exceed that of ordinary cultivators?

Zhu Fei suddenly felt a tinge of dizziness in his mind. It must be known that in today’s world, where spiritual energy is scarce, breaking through his realm was already many times more difficult than it had been on the Five Mountains Continent.

Now, to make matters worse, the difficulty of his cultivation had increased by several, if not dozens of times.

However, this thought merely flickered through Zhu Fei’s mind and was gone as his eyes gradually sharpened.

A confident and domineering aura burst forth from him.

Hmph! What does it matter if the difficulty of cultivating has increased? I, Zhu Fei, have never been afraid of anything! If there are not enough cultivation resources, then I’ll go find them! I refuse to believe that in such a vast world, I won’t be able to find the resources I need to make my breakthrough!

Zhu Fei’s hands suddenly clenched, and a "pop" sounded as if the air itself had been squeezed and burst.

With that, Zhu Fei reached out again, and two more Qi Gathering Pills flew out of the jade bottle, instantly swallowed by him.

Such frequent consumption of pills would surely lead to the accumulation of impurities within a normal Qi Refining cultivator, causing their spiritual power to become impure.

Even if they could ignore this, their bodies would certainly be unable to withstand the overwhelming power of the pills. If they were not careful, they might even burst or spawn a Heart Demon.

But Zhu Fei was different. To say nothing of his countless experiences in cultivation from a previous life,

just considering his current physique and the cultivation technique he practiced, he would never encounter such issues. At the very least, swallowing nine consecutive Qi Gathering Pills would not cause him any substantial side effects.

He could clearly feel that whenever he swallowed a pill and then cycled his cultivation technique,

there seemed to be a force within him that would stabilize the immense medicinal power and directly filter out the impurities from the pills, ensuring that he would not experience any abnormalities.

This was also the reason why Zhu Fei still dared to do so.

Just as he had previously surmised, the Five Elements Creation and Transformation Skill contained unfathomable mysteries, and he had only just barely touched the tip of the iceberg.

After all, the words "Creation" and "Transformation" were not casually named.

If the cultivation technique did not possess any exceptional qualities, how could it bear such a name?

"Huff, huff..."

The mighty medicinal power continuously gathered and coursed through Zhu Fei’s body, producing a rapid sound similar to human breathing.

Finally, after several more hours had passed, a "crack" sounded, and Zhu Fei suddenly heard what seemed like something shattering.

The next second, the center of his forehead bulged out again, propelling his entire body’s spiritual power to surge and directly break through into the Qi Refining Sixth Level!

Ah, such immense spiritual power, such vast True Qi.

Zhu Fei was a bit taken aback. He felt that the intensity of the spiritual power surrounding him was now no less than that of a Qi Refining Eighth Level cultivator.

Let’s see how much my Divine Sense has expanded by now.

Twenty meters, thirty meters, forty meters, fifty meters—what? My Divine Sense has actually reached a range of fifty meters? That’s more than double what it was before!

Zhu Fei was genuinely stunned.

One must know that a Divine Sense range of fifty meters had almost surpassed the strength typical of a Qi Refining Eighth Level cultivator. With such a shocking enhancement of his Divine Sense, Zhu Fei could not help but be astonished.

So that’s how it is. It seems that as my cultivation level advances, the Five Elements Creation and Transformation Skill will require more and more spiritual power for the further elevation of my cultivation.

But these efforts are clearly not in vain.

Now, at the Qi Refining Sixth Level, Zhu Fei’s spiritual power is comparable to that of a Qi Refining Eighth Level cultivator, and his Divine Sense even surpasses that of a typical cultivator at that level.

How can this be seen as a burden? It’s clearly a fortuitous opportunity for me, Zhu Fei!

If I were to face those three from the Zhenwu Sect now with my current cultivation level, I could easily kill them all without even resorting to a magic artifact.

With this thought, a smile appeared on Zhu Fei’s face, and the faint worry that had lingered in his heart disappeared completely in that moment!

PS: Thank you to Grandmaster Lengshi for the generous reward and for becoming the top-ranking disciple. Speaking of which, the plot has hit a bit of a bottleneck lately. I want to explode with creativity, but it’s tough. Can I have a moment to adjust? Many thanks!
