Opening his eyes, Qin Chen's gaze flickered with a hint of surprise.
He had not expected that breaking through to the Heaven Level would be so natural, as if everything was flowing smoothly without any hindrance.
Just after breaking through to the Heaven Level, his true energy had reached an extremely powerful state.
Nian Wuji was right; the Wuxiang Soul Poison he planted in him not only was harmless to martial artists' cultivation but actually could enhance it, making the true energy within martial artists more pure.
Qin Chen couldn't help but smile wryly.
The smooth breakthrough was indeed related to the Wuxiang Soul Poison that Nian Wuji had sown in him.
Boom!
At this moment, an astonishing amount of heavenly true energy surged into Qin Chen's body, strengthening the true energy within his meridians.
Even the true energy from the world outside the cave was drawn in by this force, forming an invisible vortex.
But it wasn't enough.
The speed at which he absorbed true energy could not keep up with the speed of true energy evolution.
At this rate, the scarcity of true energy would hinder his improvement.
Furrowing his brows slightly, Qin Chen's mind moved, and he took out more than a hundred low-grade true stones to begin absorbing them.
Smash!
In just a few breaths, the true energy within the first low-grade true stone in Qin Chen's hand was completely absorbed and then shattered.
Under normal circumstances, the amount of true energy contained in each low-grade true stone was equivalent to all the true energy within a peak Earth Level martial artist.
Generally, a beginner Heaven Level martial artist would be overwhelmed after absorbing just a few low-grade true stones.
However, Qin Chen practiced the legendary Nine Star Divine Emperor Art, having opened an unprecedented twelve meridians, requiring far more true energy than a normal Heaven Level martial artist.
Smash! Smash! Smash!
One by one, the low-grade true stones in his hand continuously turned to powder. In the short span of a single incense stick, he had already absorbed twenty low-grade true stones.
Moreover, the purity of the true energy within Qin Chen's meridians had not yet reached its limit.
Thirty stones!
Forty stones!
Fifty stones!
Sixty stones!
Only after absorbing sixty-four stones did the true energy within Qin Chen's meridians finally feel a slight fullness, and he no longer needed to absorb more.
If other martial artists saw this scene, their eyes would surely bulge in disbelief.
Sixty-four low-grade true stones— even a peak Earth Level martial artist would struggle to absorb that many at once.
Huff!
Exhaling a long breath, Qin Chen finally opened his eyes.
His expression was calm, and his body seemed to contain boundless power.
Simultaneously, with the help of over sixty low-grade true stones, his cultivation directly elevated to the peak of the initial Heaven Level.
That's about right.
Standing up, Qin Chen approached Zi Xun.
Placing both hands on Zi Xun's chest, Qin Chen urged his true energy into her body.
After breaking through to the Heaven Level, the true energy attribute of the Nine Star Divine Emperor Art had qualitatively improved. The true energy that had previously been helpless against the poison now surged like a tiger descending the mountain, rapidly forcing the toxins within Zi Xun's body to one place.
The toxic force tried to escape, but it was futile. Under the interception of Qin Chen’s third-tier mental power, that strange toxin was slowly forced out of Zi Xun’s body.
Her skin and complexion gradually returned to normal, regaining their original fairness.
Furthermore, the true energy within her unexpectedly improved, crossing into the mid-Heaven Level realm due to the nourishment from the toxin and Qin Chen’s true energy.
Wow!
After about a stick of incense, Zi Xun spat out a mouthful of black blood.
What is this…
Zi Xun slowly regained consciousness and immediately noticed her disheveled clothing, revealing large areas of her fair skin.
What embarrassed her even more was that Qin Chen's hands were resting just above her chest.
