Chapter 1651: Chapter 381: Du Zundao: Chen, Chen94 How Could You Be This Strong!_2

The usual type only absorbs a bit and converts a bit; nothing like Chen Jie, who gulps it down like a whale—one mouthful of Spiritual Energy is basically half a month of cultivation for people outside.

So there’s no waiting time at all for Spiritual Energy to be converted.

And when I said just now that Du Zundao would need a few months to cultivate, there was a premise: when Du Zundao cultivates, he has to be fed a massive amount of Tai Sui Pills. If he relies only on his own Martial Arts talent to absorb the Spiritual Energy outside, he’d need a whole year.

This is the second reason Chen Jie was able to finish cultivating in just three two hours.

The third reason lies in Chen Jie himself: he cultivates both inside and out—inside he’s got the Four Seasons Celestial Phenomenon Technique, and outside he’s got the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms.

Inner training requires opening the governor and conception vessels; external training requires opening the yin and yang linking vessels in the hands and feet.

So with Chen Jie training both inside and out, he just went ahead and opened all Eight Extraordinary Meridians, and the Qiankun Great Method requires exactly these eight meridians to all be open.

But for Inner cultivation like Du Zundao’s, you don’t need to open all Eight Extraordinary Meridians—like those yin and yang linking vessels that run through the limbs, totally unnecessary.

So people who do Inner cultivation usually only open six meridians, because six is enough.

It doesn’t stop them from getting stronger. Who has the time to go open these yin and yang linking meridians—these leftover corner meridians? All effort, no return.

But the Qiankun Great Method needs them, so when they cultivate it, people like Du Zundao have to think of a way to re-open the yin and yang linking vessels. Opening these corner meridians doesn’t take that much Kung Fu, but it still needs, what, at least a month of slow grinding.

Chen Jie saved that time too.

And that’s how he pulled off the feat of pushing the Qiankun Great Method all the way to the Fourth Layer in just three hours.

That really was a case of the right time, the right place, and the right person—miss any one and it wouldn’t have worked.

Chen Jie stood there, looking out at the Spiritual Energy over the Central Island outside; it had thinned a lot, a whole layer slimmer than when he’d first come in.

Looks like it should’ve all been swallowed up by him.

Still, the results are obvious: not only has he recovered his skill, his strength has also gone up another level; he actually broke through all the way to the Molten Furnace Upper Realm.

That’s a massive leap—Molten Furnace Upper Realm. Chen Jie clenched his fist; if you add in the ferocity of the Qiankun Great Method, plus Killing Moves like the Four Seasons Celestial Phenomenon Technique, his actual strength should now have reached the Half-step Furnace level.

This level of strength is exactly the main goal of Chen Jie’s trip to Bright Peak.

And now the goal’s just... done like that?

Feels damn good.

Looking around, Chen Jie thought to himself that this really is a treasure land.

It’s a pity he has to leave.

He felt a bit reluctant to part with this treasure land, but after thinking a moment, he decided he couldn’t go back empty-handed. First, he took out the original manual of the Qiankun Great Method, flipped through it, then put it into his own Storage Ring.

Then Chen Jie looked at the golden mat he’d been sitting on—now this is a fine treasure.

You don’t know when you’re not sitting on it, but once he sat down he could feel just how wonderful this mat was, so he didn’t act polite at all and directly pocketed this treasure that had镇教 guarded the Zoroastrian Sect for hundreds of years.

After all, with Little Ming King’s current strength, even if they left this thing here for him, it’d still take him ten years or more before he could come sit on it. Since that’s the case, might as well let Chen Jie have the bargain first. When Little Ming King finally gets here and finds the mat gone...

What’s that got to do with me? It’s not like I took it.

Chen Jie’s lips curled up. A treasure that’s already in my hands and you still want it back? What are you dreaming about?

Besides, is this mat even yours, Little Ming King? It clearly belongs to Founder King Mao Ziyuan. If you want it, have Mao Ziyuan come ask for it himself.

With that thought, Chen Jie, utterly guilt-free, stuffed into his bag this treasure that had been secretly passed down for hundreds of years along the Sect Hierarch line of the Zoroastrian Sect—a golden mat treasure from the former Buddhist Sect Pure Land Sect.

After doing all that, Chen Jie still felt he’d made a tough trip and couldn’t go back empty-handed.

At this moment he looked at the Jade table and Jade chairs in front of him. At first he hadn’t noticed, but with this glance he realized the Jade was actually Thousand-Year-Old Cold Ice Jade. If you cultivate on these Jade chairs, you can also increase your skill—counts as a pretty decent skill-boosting treasure.

The effect is similar to Little Dragon Girl’s Cold Ice Jade Bed in Return of the Condor Heroes.

Chen Jie’s plan was to take both table and chairs, but unfortunately the table was too big; his storage space simply couldn’t hold it. No choice, in the end he could only barely stuff one Ice Jade Chair in.

After all this, Chen Jie lowered his head to look at the pond under the pavilion. There were still koi swimming in it. The koi weren’t big, but each one was packed with Spiritual Energy.

Chen Jie’s eyes lit up instantly.

These koi just looked nourishing as hell. Thinking that, he took out a water jar from his Storage Ring, filled it with some water, then jumped into the pond and grabbed the koi—one in each hand—catching more than a dozen of them.

The rest of the little koi were so scared they all hid in the cracks between the rocks. Seeing that, Chen Jie didn’t go all out to catch them, and instead turned his head to look at the lotuses in the pond.

Growing in a place with such dense Spiritual Energy, these lotuses had absorbed the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth and the essence of sun and moon, so of course they’d grown into treasure medicine.

Chen Jie went over and plucked a bunch more lotuses, especially picking quite a lot of lotus seeds.

After this whole round of tossing about by Chen Jie, this place that had originally been full of Immortal Energy and fairy vibes was completely turned upside down by him. There’s a phrase that fits perfectly: ”burning zither and cooking crane, utterly ruining the scenery”—probably the most accurate way to describe Chen Jie right now.

Of course, Chen Jie couldn’t care less. No matter how pretty this place is, it’s not his den. Once he leaves, he might never get the chance to come back in this lifetime. So, I don’t care how beautiful your mountains and rivers are—if I can stuff it in my pocket, that’s what counts as truly beautiful.
