I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players-Chapter 632 - 119: Breakthrough, One Heart Realm Sect Leader

"They're having a great time chatting, aren't they?"

"Why are they talking about us, Xi Rong?"

Ning Zheng ate quietly, glancing casually at the Bone Demon Sect's observer perspective.

Eight maidservants stood demurely in a corner of the meeting, showcasing the full 360-degree projection, leaving no blind spots.

The Food God and Shao Chaikun were having a blast cooking and grilling dishes before the meeting, lost in the joy of their culinary madness.

"They certainly wouldn't expect...Their supposedly closed sect can transmit through observer perspectives on the server here."

"Looks like in some aspects, we are more sophisticated than Communication Tokens."

Ning Zheng sat cross-legged in the room.

The Sword Casting Manor Ark had been sailing for six or seven days and was soon reaching the Sea Abyss.

It still seemed slow in Ning Zheng's eyes!

Due to the manor's massive size, spanning several thousand meters, it couldn't fly at near-light speeds like an energy body or Dharma Aspect.

He bowed his head and looked at the accumulated Qi Fortune Values over five days.

[18.91 million]

Enough to break through the One Heart Realm.

With the impending war and numerous variables, Ning Zheng pondered whether he should break through immediately.

Holding onto a large amount of Qi Fortune Value allows for adaptability.

After all, who knows what major events might occur?

Yet, after much deliberation, he felt maybe he was being overly suspicious and cautious.

It's unlikely that a Human God would emerge from the Human Race Ancestral Tomb or Dragon Tomb, right? 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Even if something big happens, there will be buffer time for himself.

If the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up!

Heading to Sea Abyss and staying away from the vortex of war, he definitely won't be the first to get beaten.

Ning Zheng was always cautious.

Life is precious, so it's best to hide away and protect oneself before considering anything else.

"Oh well, let's power up!" His thoughts shifted, dispelling further rumination.

Add points!

[-10 million Qi Fortune Value!]

Bang!

A colossal aura suddenly erupted.

Ning Zheng felt the whole body's cycles tremble, with each large circle accelerating as they rolled up like a raging river.

The outer circle is the Five Elements.

The inner circle is the Four Viscera.

The mind circle is the Three Elements.

Yin and Yang, the Two Phases.

In the human body perspective, each large circle sped up its rotation.

Eventually, countless refined organs, limbs, and spirit gathered onto the heart at the center.

This was a Mortal Heart that had never been tempered.

Humans have five viscera but only refine four, leaving the heart untouched.

Because the heart...within the current Undying cultivation system, is the core of all body cycles, too fragile, too sensitive, prone to issues.

Therefore, cultivators below the One Heart Realm have a fatal weakness in their heart, which won't regenerate.

Only upon reaching One Heart Realm does the heart cease to be a weakness, being tempered, serving as the central connection for all cycles...

The heart is the closing hub for the first four realm cycles.

Hence the name, One Heart.

One Heart is also a cycle, but it encompasses all cycles in its core cycle.

Bang!

Ning Zheng slightly closed his eyes as countless cycles of realm cultivation rapidly infused into the heart.

Thump! Thump thump!

The weighty and muffled heartbeat resonated like a grand bell.

Within him, breaking open the chaos and Hongmeng's chaotic bell sound, prying open life's murkiness, akin to splitting heaven and earth, birthing all creation.

Ning Zheng slowly opened his eyes, voraciously consuming resources as various Heavenly and Earthly Treasures from the Storage Bag poured forth, transforming into dense torrents within his body.

These resources, plundered from the previous domain masters, were nearly depleted now, with an expenditure reaching an astounding fifty billion.

These were top-tier resources, beyond market pricing.

Typically, a prodigious cultivator would only require resources worth ten billion Magic Coins to reach the One Heart Realm, which is already substantial enough, given that only a Great Sect could support it.

Yet Ning Zheng spent over fifty billion, as if he transformed into a gold-devouring beast, madly consuming.

Time gradually slipped into night.

The rapidly beating heart sounds finally became steady, turning into an Undying Exquisite Heart, pulsing slowly and powerfully, seems like the energy source for the entire cycle.

Ning Zheng slowly opened his eyes, a gleam of Essence flashing in his eyes:

"One Heart Realm achieved."

He sensed the omnipotent force surging through his body, an urge to vent, even wanting to roar out all his mana.

But still, he forcibly suppressed that impulse.

If he shouted, his entire estate would be done for!

The whole mountain, including the estate, would shatter, revealing the Magic Copper head of the One Heart Realm Gao inside, and then all the dirt mixed with blacksmiths' corpses would shake onto the ark's protective shield, forming a giant crust.

The Two-Phase Realm can move mountains and fill seas, and the One Heart Realm is the façade combat power of a Great Nine-State Teachings level, how can it be simple?

Not to mention the uniquely extreme One Heart Realm like Ning Zheng.

"Pity, spent too much money... the money saved before is now all gone."

Ning Zheng's expression slightly changed.

The One Heart Realm truly is a consumption giant, his resource consumption might even match a poorly managed Great Power in the Self-Transformation Realm!

He had actually impoverished his own force.

At the same time, he remained extremely clear-headed.

If it weren't for these blacksmiths raising him to earn a lot of resources, if he were to regularly tackle secret realm dungeons to earn resources through tomb raiding, who knows how many years it would take to accumulate enough.

"It's time to start earning money again, the estate has been depleted."

He sighed, calming his emotions, and reconnected with his body.

The One Heart Realm actually divides into six small realms.

One Heart, known as the Six-Orifice Exquisite Immortal Heart.

Upon entering the One Heart Realm, the heart itself is the first Heart Acupoints Realm.

At this stage of cultivation, one must work backwards to open the cycles.

The heart first opens the Two-Phase Realm cycle, which is the One Heart and Two Apertures Realm.

The heart next opens the Three Elements Realm cycle, which is the One Heart Three Apertures Realm.

The heart connecting to one cycle is one aperture.

When the most outer Five-Body Cycle is opened, it is the Five-Orifice Realm, meaning all five body cycles are opened, forming a solid plate!

But in today's era, even the fur—the meridians cycle, is an aperture too.

So, in the One Heart Realm, after the appearance of the Human God, there was actually an extra small realm.

The Human God stole human fur, stole a foundational small realm from humans.

Before the Human God appeared, it was the Five-Orifice Exquisite Heart.

Now, it's the Six-Orifice Exquisite Heart.

"Including the latest fur-meridian cycle, the human body has in total six major cycles." Ning Zheng pondered, "The Six-Orifice Exquisite Heart is now the perfect foundation for the Human Race!"

"But... if the Human God can steal a part, who can guarantee no other beings in history have stolen another part? Maybe the human limit is the Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart?"

When Ning Zheng crossed over, although he was young, he had seen a certain mythological TV series and had some memory of the term Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart.

With such high realms now, even childhood memories were incredibly clear.

No matter how.

The combat power difference between One Heart Realm Sect Leaders is very obvious; not many in this era can achieve One Heart Realm Great Perfection by opening all heart acupoints.

This is most normal.

An era can have many sect leaders, but Saint-level individuals, at most one or two per era in the past.

"Let me see the difficulty ahead."

Ning Zheng prepared in his heart to see astronomical numbers, and tentatively opened the Qi Fortune Value.

[Breakthrough One Heart and Two Apertures Realm: 5 million Qi Fortune Value.]

Only five million for a small realm?

Ning Zheng laughed.

Is that it? Underestimating me?

Do you believe I won't just spend 5 million in the next second to level up?

"It seems that what's limiting my breakthrough is no longer the Qi Fortune Value, but the time needed to buffer and adapt to the realm after a breakthrough."

Ning Zheng pondered to himself.

If the contemporary sect leaders outside knew Ning Zheng's thoughts, they would want to beat him up fiercely.

What do you mean by what you've said?

The heart is a hub.

Opening each cycle requires great determination, courage, and painstaking efforts to succeed.

At this realm, it's not resources that can elevate you.

It relies on enlightenment!

Why is it said that the Ghost King's limit is high, but the limit is the One Heart Realm?

Because the Ghost King grows by consuming ghosts, but after reaching the One Heart Realm, no matter how many ghosts you eat, how much energy is provided, it can't make you stronger.

This realm relies on enlightenment, on sudden realization.

At this stage, many cultivators travel and hone their hearts through the mortal world... heart training is the One Heart Realm.

That's why there are so many stories of hidden masters in folk tales.

But coincidentally, Ning Zheng is a heaven-bestowed genius, the one thing he lacks least in this life is enlightenment.

He knows he is a rare historical genius of enlightenment that ordinary people cannot compare with, and with just a little assistance from Qi Fortune, he can have sudden realizations about most things.

He doesn't need to enter the world to train his heart, all realizations occur instantly on the spot.

"The stage of the One Heart Realm, needing enlightenment and such, is almost no challenge at all." Instead, Ning Zheng felt the difficulty decreased, a bit boring.

He couldn't be bothered to think more, continued solidifying his cultivation, adapting to his body's abilities.

"Tomorrow..." his eyes gleamed.
