Chapter 39 Fourth Level of the Qi Refinement Realm
Time passed day by day while he busied himself.
Soon, a month had passed.
Chen Daoxuan had been both happy and worried during this period of time due to the fact that he had discovered an immortal seedling in his clan.
Had it been any other clan, finding an immortal seedling would have been considered great news.
However, the Chen clan was a small clan with a shallow foundation.
They did not even possess a spiritual vein in their clan. They only had one spiritual eye, which was barely sufficient for Chen Daoxuan to cultivate alone.
As a result, even if they found a seedling of immortal cultivation like Chen Daochu, the Chen clan would not be able to provide him with spiritual essence for his cultivation.
Inside the cave abode, after Chen Daoxuan finished instructing Chen Daochu regarding the cultivation of the mortal realm, he urgently thought to himself, ‘No matter what, he had to nurture the spiritual vein of his clan within this
year.’
Chen Daoxuan’s objective was not a pipe dream.
He only made this his objective because of the confidence he had in the production capacity and output of the Hongyin Flying Sword Workshop, which had given him countless surprises over the past month. Within a month, excluding the flying swords that had been unsuccessfully refined due to the improper operation of the workers, Chen Daoxuan had refined a total of 148 flying swords.
On average, he had refined about five flying swords a day.
With so many flying swords, even if he sold them at the market price of Guang’an Prefecture, he would still earn 7,400 spirit stones. Not only would he recoup his investment, but he would also make a small profit.
One had to know that this was only after a month of operation.
If Chen Daoxuan were to calculate it over the course of a year, he would be able to earn at least 34,000 spirit stones.
In three years’ time, he would be able to accumulate enough spirit stones to nurture the spiritual vein.
However, Chen Daoxuan planned to settle the issue of the clan’s spiritual vein in a year’s time. It was obvious that relying on the Guang’an Prefecture’s sales were insufficient.
Thinking of this, he silently took out a green scale from his storage bag.
This scale was diamond-shaped, and there was a faint trace of dark red blood on it.
It was the natal scale left by the mermaid princess Luo Li to Chen Daoxuan.
However, two months had already passed, and this scale did not seem to display any reaction at all.
Chen Daoxuan had thrice tried to inject True qi into it but, in the end, all of it had been for naught. This made Chen Daoxuan wonder if the mermaid named Luo Li had been lying to him.
However, thinking about it carefully, the possibility of her lying to him was close to zero.
This was because there was no reason for her to lie to Chen Daoxuan, and trading with him, whether it was from the standpoint of the merfolk tribe or the Chen clan, was a win-win situation.
“Sigh.”
Chen Daoxuan sighed. Chen Daoxuan no longer thought about it and immediately put the green scale back into his storage bag. He began his cultivation for the day.
Of course, during this period of time, other than the explosion in the number of spiritual artifacts produced by his clan’s spiritual artifact factory, the increase in Chen Daoxuan’s cultivation had far exceeded his own expectations.
Initially, he thought that he would need four to five months, or even half a year, to break through to the fourth level of the Qi refinement realm.
However, after only two months of cultivation, he felt that he was on the verge of breaking through.
Such a terrifying cultivation speed finally gave him insight on how and why Zhou Mubai was able to successfully reach the foundation establishment realm at the mere age of 21.
Normally speaking, if a cultivator at the ninth level of the Qi refinement realm wanted to reach the foundation establishment realm, he would need to temper his true Qi for a very long time, allowing his true Qi to become so pure that there was no way to purify it further. Only then could he attempt to break through to the foundation establishment realm.
Of course, this was only one of the most basic requirements for breaking through to the foundation establishment realm.
As for the requirements of the spiritual vein, foundation establishment pill, and other resources, they were not included.
It was precisely because of the various requirements of the foundation establishment realm that the number of cultivators who were able to break through to the foundation establishment realm could be counted on one’s fingers.
Basically, they had to rely on accumulating battle merits on the battlefield against the Cloud Nation in order to obtain the resources to break through.

Those ordinary itinerant cultivators who were unwilling to go to the battlefield did not even have enough spiritual essence to cultivate normally, let alone break through to the foundation establishment realm.
Inside the cultivation room of the cave abode, Chen Daoxuan’s eyes were tightly shut, and pure spiritual essence kept gushing out from the water spirit pearl. With the help of the Qi gathering pill, at this moment, Chen Daoxuan’s speed of refining spiritual essence was even beyond the reach of heavenly spiritual root cultivators.
As the pure spiritual essence entered his meridians, it was continuously refined and converted into true Qi, which was then stored in his dantian and Qi ocean bit by bit.
In his dantian and Qi ocean, the amount of true Qi was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Suddenly, at this moment, Chen Daoxuan felt that he would break through to the fourth level of the Qi refinement realm!
His premonition was right, as the true Qi continued to accumulate in his dantian and Qi ocean, the total amount of true Qi in his dantian seemed to have reached the threshold.
Boom!
A loud explosion could be heard in Chen Daoxuan’s sea of consciousness.
He felt that his spiritual sense had suddenly become stronger. Not only that, his dantian and Qi ocean had also undergone a transformation.
When his consciousness returned the next second, he found that the great circle in his dantian and Qi ocean had suddenly increased by one circle. Compared to before, the total amount of true Qi in his dantian had increased by at least 50%.
“Fourth level of the Qi refinement realm! Success!”
Chen Daoxuan opened his eyes, and his face was full of both surprise and excitement.
He calculated carefully.
From the time he broke through to the third level of the Qi refinement realm to now, only four months had passed; it had not even been half a year.
Compared to the time when he broke through from the second level of the Qi refinement realm to the third level of the Qi refinement realm, the time he took to break through did not increase, but had rather decreased by several times.
This obviously did not conform to how cultivation would normally proceed.
Under normal circumstances, the higher the level a cultivator cultivated to, the slower their speed of breakthrough.
In other words, breaking through from the third level to the fourth level should definitely be slower than breaking through from the second level to the third level.
However, Chen Daoxuan somehow defied this convention.
Chen Daoxuan knew clearly in his heart this achievement was not due to his talent, but rather due to the assistance of the water spirit pearl and the Qi gathering pill. In the end, it was all thanks to the cultivation resources.
Thinking of this, he could not help but think of those great immortal cultivation clans, and even the core disciples of the Qianyuan Sword sect. What kind of cultivation conditions and resources would they have?
Those who could become core disciples of the Qianyuan Sword sect were all geniuses among geniuses.
According to what Chen Daoxuan knew, the Qianyuan Sword sect disciples were divided into three categories, which were outer disciples, inner disciples, and personal disciples.
It was said that the requirements for even the weakest of their outer sect disciples was to possess an upper spiritual root, and that was without mentioning the different kinds of tests and tempering of character and perseverance that they would have to undergo.
Therefore, any random disciple of the Qianyuan Sword sect would be invincible among the itinerant cultivators of the same level.
If they did not have this tiny bit of ability, the Qianyuan Sword sect would not have dominated the Myriad Sea of Stars for thousands of years.
Of course, although Chen Daoxuan knew that he could not compare to the disciples of the Qianyuan Sword sect in terms of spiritual roots, resources, and other aspects, there was one aspect in which the disciples of the Qianyuan Sword sect could not compare to him, which was…
Comprehension ability!
He had the ability to accumulate his comprehension through the Hong Meng Enlightenment Sutra every day, and he would experience an epiphany once every ten days.
In the long run, the effects of his advantage would be terrifying.
Thinking of this, Chen Daoxuan could not help but sink his consciousness into his sea of consciousness.

Inside his sea of consciousness, ten Stardust were revolving around a golden scripture. The ten Stardust were attracted to each other, but Chen Daoxuan deliberately restricted them and did not allow them to collide.
Perhaps it was because he had just broken through to the fourth level of the Qi refinement realm, but Chen Daoxuan suddenly had the feeling that perhaps the breakthrough opportunity for the wind chasing sword technique would also appear tonight.
With this thought in mind, he no longer suppressed the ten Stardust and allowed them to collide to form an even bigger Stardust. Finally, it exploded and spread throughout his entire sea of consciousness.
Immediately after, Chen Daoxuan’s consciousness kept rising, and all kinds of insights about the wind chasing sword technique kept surging into his mind.
Chen Daoxuan quickly immersed himself in the epiphany and forgot about the passage of time.
