”Breakthrough? What breakthrough?” Chen Xiaolong looked bewildered.

Liu Yunmeng and Zhu Chengzhi almost said in unison, ”Of course, it’s a cultivation breakthrough!”

Liu Yunmeng’s eyes were filled with immense shock, and she said in a low voice, ”But I’ve heard that cultivation advancements usually happen within half a year... Qin Tian’s is way too fast, wasn’t it just yesterday he absorbed the Pig Demon King’s Beast Core and now he’s already broken through?”

Zhu Chengzhi said, ”I don’t get it, I really don’t get it. Qin Tian has too many mysteries. I’m curious about where he comes from on the spiritual road and what exactly he’s doing in the domain world. If he doesn’t belong to any sect, we could ask our master to bring him into our Yunshui Villa when we return.”

”Senior Brother, I feel he is not an ordinary person. Our Yunshui Villa, he probably wouldn’t think much of it. Now that Qin Tian has broken through to the Late Stage of the Longevity Realm, being in his thirties, that’s incredibly young in the cultivation immortality world. He will surely become a prominent figure in the Tianyuan Dynasty.”

While Liu Yunmeng spoke, her gaze was fixed on the extremely excited Qin Tian, with a tone filled with fervent admiration.

Qin Tian also hadn’t expected his breakthrough would come on the very first day upon arriving at the spiritual road for cultivation. In fact, he was already on the verge of breaking through, and this time the Pig Demon King’s Beast Core just gave him that final push.

Of course, if it hadn’t been for cultivating on the spiritual road, who knows when this advancement would have occurred.

”Cultivating on the spiritual road is truly formidable. I haven’t even managed to cultivate on spirit stones yet.”

Feeling quite pleased with himself, Qin Tian looked up at Zhu Chengzhi and the others, who were staring at him dumbfoundedly. He chuckled, ”What are you all looking at me for? Let’s go.”

”Sure, sure,” Zhu Chengzhi nodded, then made a gesture of inviting him, respectfully saying, ”Senior Brother Qin Tian, after you.”

Qin Tian naturally didn’t stand on ceremony. As he walked, he asked, ”What are your plans next? Where are you heading?”

In fact, Qin Tian hadn’t made any plans. He didn’t know where the most abundant cultivation immortality resources were.

”Senior Brother Qin Tian, you won’t abandon us, will you? Aren’t we teamed up? Why not stick together? Where you go, we will follow...”

”Zhu Chengzhi, you’ve changed way too fast. Stop with the ’Senior Brother’ this and that. Just call me by my name. I’m not as vain and arrogant as you.”

Qin Tian interrupted Zhu Chengzhi, saying, ”Right now, I’m contemplating where the richest cultivation immortality resources are, where there are spirit stones, so we can cultivate a bit and get through the night.”

As Du Qiuniang previously mentioned, while cultivating on the spiritual road, the most important thing at night is to cultivate on spirit stones, gathering nature’s spiritual energy to enhance the quality of True Qi, safeguarding the True Qi and energy absorbed during the day. This prevents rapid improvement in cultivation and strength from leading to deviation.

So now, Qin Tian wanted to see what the nighttime cultivation spirit stones were really like.

”The spiritual road world is still vast. We currently only know that about 100 kilometers ahead, in a valley full of fierce beasts, it should offer the greatest improvement to cultivation.”

Liu Yunmeng said, ”Of course, it’s been said that there are many experts around there too. We three originally planned to check it out but were deterred by the fear that those experts might target us, so we ended up giving up.”

Liu Yunmeng, looking at Qin Tian, said, ”Qin Tian, if you want to go, we can accompany you. That valley is called Spiritual Cloud Valley.”

”Haha, what a name to give.” Qin Tian was quite speechless. Spiritual Cloud Valley made him think of Xiao Lingyun, that arrogant fool who delusionally wanted to marry Murong Fei!

”Senior Sister, are we really going to Spiritual Cloud Valley? It might be too dangerous.”

Chen Xiaolong hesitated, saying, ”Not to mention how many ferocious beasts there are, the main issue is that there are truly too many experts there. If we go, we might go through the trouble of hunting a few spiritual beasts, only to have them snatched away by others. At that point, we could even lose our lives!”

Chen Xiaolong’s words left Liu Yunmeng and Zhu Chengzhi silent, as these too were their concerns.

”Are you afraid?” Qin Tian asked.

All three nodded simultaneously.

Zhu Chengzhi said, ”There’s a high chance that experts of the Small Immortal Realm might appear in Spiritual Cloud Valley. If one shows up, we might meet our end. Many have died on the spiritual road, and should we die, not even a soul would burn paper money for us…”

Qin Tian smiled, ”If you’re that scared, why did you come here?”

”Given that Spiritual Cloud Valley has so many resources, I must go and take a look. If we encounter a super expert, we’ll just sidestep. If we don’t, hehe, can’t we make a substantial fortune?”

Seeing the three hesitate, Qin Tian continued, ”Don’t you want to quickly break through and advance like I did? The way you’re going about hunting a few minor demon beasts, it’ll take forever to advance, right? When the time comes, you won’t be strong enough, and upon meeting those experts, won’t they just take you down with one move?”

”Strong power is fought for. You have to keep striving to win. If you don’t go, I will.”

Finishing his words, Qin Tian crossed his arms behind his head and started walking away.

Liu Yunmeng was the first to step forward, decisively saying, ”I’m going with you.”

Zhu Chengzhi saw this, pouted, ”I’m going too. Anyway, you saved my life, time to fight.”

”If you all are going, being alone would be more dangerous, so I’m going too,” Chen Xiaolong said, feeling quite helpless.

Qin Tian anticipated this outcome, giving a faint smile, ”Then let’s go.”

However, all three didn’t move.

Qin Tian turned around, ”What is it?”

Liu Yunmeng covered her mouth with a smile, saying, ”Qin Tian, it’s this way, you’re going the wrong direction.”

Qin Tian: ”...”

…

On the way to Spiritual Cloud Valley, night fell. At this point, they were still 40 kilometers away, so all four were very cautious.

At night, they all began cultivating. Qin Tian found the spirit stones Du Qiuniang had mentioned.

In fact, spirit stones aren’t difficult to find in the spiritual road; they appear frequently, which is one reason for the quick cultivation pace there.

Sitting cross-legged on a spirit stone, Qin Tian circulated through three circulations and immediately felt refreshed.

After the breakthrough, now in the Late Stage of the Longevity Realm, his Dan Tian Qi Sea was exceptionally tranquil, without any ripples, which was somewhat surprising to Qin Tian.

He looked up at the ten moons in the sky, marveling that the spiritual road actually has no distinction between day and night; the sky always has moons, just emitting different light intensity.

Gazing at Liu Yunmeng and the others meditating not far off, Qin Tian gritted his teeth, vowing silently, ”Breaking through on the first day sets a promising beginning. I must at least advance to the Small Immortal Realm in half a year! I can’t lag behind Murong Ao! I not only want to surpass Murong Ao but also trample Xiao Lingyun!”

(Busy preparing for the wedding these days, it’s been hectic, could only squeeze in time to write, hence I forgot Qin Tian previously advanced to the Peak through dual cultivation with the Fire Qilin. I forgot to make notes in the outline back then; sigh, now it can’t be corrected, and I wondered why Qin Tian seemed to have weakened... Embarrassing, I must not make such a low-level mistake again in the future.)
