Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2383: Chapter 2384: Breakthrough

Other things can be set aside for the time being, but cultivation alone is branded into his very body—there’s no need to say more, and Lin Chen would never let that go.

With the battles of these past few days, Lin Chen’s realm had risen at a frightening pace; signs of a breakthrough had appeared several days ago, yet up to now, Lin Chen was still lingering at the third level of the Spirit Pill Realm.

This was because during these days, Lin Chen simply hadn’t had the time or mental focus to advance; one trivial matter after another, coupled with the struggle against the Demon Sect, left him unable to calm his heart.

But now things were different.

The Demon Sect affair had come to a temporary close, and Chen Jie’s injuries had gradually begun to improve. For Lin Chen, the heavy knot in his heart had all but been set down.

As he quieted his mind, Spiritual Energy slowly flowed through the air. Drawn by Lin Chen’s breath, they were like trickling streams, slipping in through his nostrils, roaming through his meridians, and finally returning to his Dantian.

These Spiritual Energy currents, vivid and lively, sank into Lin Chen’s Dantian, but did not merge into the Spirit Pills that already existed there. Instead, Lin Chen cautiously refined them.

The initially mixed and impure Spiritual Energy, under Lin Chen’s refinement, began to condense like a flowing stream. It transformed into droplets the size of raindrops, speckling a crystalline sheen inside the Dantian on Lin Chen’s left side.

These raindrops were numerous, all formed from the surging streams of the original Spiritual Energy.

The impurities contained within the Spiritual Energy were further stripped away in this process; what remained was a single, pure essence.

The refining process was extremely tedious, but fortunately Lin Chen was not a hasty person. No trace of anxiety could be seen on his face—only a calm as deep as an ocean.

He slowly continued condensing those streams into raindrops. The motion was slow, yet with the passage of time their number grew and grew.

Only when Lin Chen’s left Dantian became crowded with the rain-like beads of condensed Spiritual Energy did he move on to the next step.

His consciousness sank, guiding the raindrop-like Spiritual Energy that had been resting in his Dantian to converge toward a single point.

If one could look closely into his Dantian, one would see a slight depression there.

This was the peculiarity of the Spirit Pill Realm, divided into nine levels; with each level, a round, smooth bead body was condensed within the Dantian.

Spiritual Energy gathered at that spot, where the depression seemed like a whirlpool, churning within Lin Chen’s Dantian as it began to condense.

This was the purest Spiritual Energy, with very few impurities; in the course of condensation, one could clearly see its crystal-clear translucence.

Though it looked deceptively simple, the occasional sweat that beaded on Lin Chen’s brow was proof enough of how strenuous it truly was for him at this moment.

After all, the elevation of one’s realm demanded an immense expenditure of mental effort from Lin Chen, far beyond anything else.

Thus, accompanied by this cultivation, time slipped away minute by minute...

Just then, with Lin Chen’s eyes closed, a tiny crack suddenly appeared at the center of his brows. From that crack, wisps of some breath could be seen surging inward.

This was not Spiritual Energy, but a jet-black, bizarre aura. Seizing the opportunity while Lin Chen’s mind was immersed, it slipped through that fissure, flooding into his body, then followed a strange meridian-linked path to the right side of Lin Chen’s Dantian. The bead body within, in that deep stillness, emitted an eerie glow.

Lin Chen did not see this scene; his entire mind and heart were devoted to the condensation of his fourth Spirit Pill.

It had already taken shape, releasing a soul-shocking power.

After about another two hours, the star-like rain beads gathered in Lin Chen’s Dantian completely dispersed. They had all converged into the depths of Lin Chen’s Dantian, becoming the fourth round bead body within it.

After circulating his Cultivation Technique once more and stabilizing his realm at this level, Lin Chen finally slowly opened his eyes. His gaze was deep, glinting with a hint of wisdom.

"Fourth level of the Spirit Pill Realm!"

Lin Chen exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. He lowered his head slightly, raising his hand for a gentle clench. With that motion, the Spirit Pills in his Dantian scattered forth streams of extremely powerful force.

Four Spirit Pills, each releasing strands of exceedingly pure Spiritual Energy fluctuations, rose from Lin Chen’s Dantian and converged at a certain point in his body, finally gathering slowly into the palm he had slightly opened.

After more than a full night of busy cultivation, Lin Chen had at last stepped into the fourth level of the Spirit Pill Realm.

Such a realm, while not much in this Spiritual World, and still far, far from Lin Chen’s ultimate goal, was nevertheless a good thing as long as it was progress.

"Once I’ve completely stabilized this realm, I can open the second acupoint."

Lin Chen rose to his feet, murmuring in his heart.

The acupoint he spoke of was naturally the special feature granted by the Cultivation Technique that Su Yan had previously taught him.

In fact, back when he was still at the ninth level of the Refining Spirit Realm, Lin Chen had already possessed the strength to break through that acupoint. The reason he had delayed until now, dragging it out, was simply because there had been too many trivial matters.

But as Lin Chen’s strength increased, the pace of cultivation would grow ever slower, and Su Yan’s Cultivation Technique happened to greatly enhance cultivation speed once the acupoint was opened. This was, without a doubt, an attribute that Lin Chen greatly needed at this moment.

A soft creaking sound rang out just as Lin Chen was lost in thought.

The sound was faint, but Lin Chen’s hearing was extraordinary, and the distance was not far. Naturally, he could hear it clearly.

He walked toward the door, and the moment he stepped out, he saw Sun Tianming slowly approaching.

Sun Tianming had originally been walking with his head lowered, but upon hearing footsteps, he lifted it. Seeing Lin Chen’s beaming face, he clearly froze for a moment, then scanned him up and down, suspiciously asking, "You... broke through again."

"Mm."

Lin Chen nodded. People’s spirits rise with joyous events, and right now his smile was bright and radiant.

"Your cultivation speed is a bit too fast..."

Sun Tianming first exclaimed in amazement, then showed a hint of regret.

He had always thought his own cultivation speed was not slow, but looking at Lin Chen now, a hard-to-describe sense of frustration wrapped itself around his heart.
