Primordial Cultivator

Chapter 127: 9th Qi Condensation Realm

Yang Wei was confused about why he encountered a bottleneck when he managed to kill a few Nascent Soul realm cultivators previously.

“Let me rephrase your words a bit,” Elder Jing shook her head in his accomplishment.

“You have indeed killed a few Nascent Soul realm cultivators but they were all nearly exhausted after getting bashed by me,” Elder Jing said with a prideful tone.

Yang Wei twitched his mouth as he was rendered speechless by Elder Jing’s haughty tone.

After all, she was not wrong at all and he was merely a kill stealer if he had to label himself as something.

Elder Jing smirked when she saw Yang Wei’s speechless expression as she continued, “Also, you were camping like a little bastard for them, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike them when their guards relaxed.”

Yang Wei kept his head lowered as he couldn’t rebuke her in any way. Not to mention, it was his battle spirit, Xiao Wei, that got the kill for him so he really couldn’t count the kill as his own effort.

“Why is your head lowered now huh?” Elder Jing stopped abruptly and asked Yang Wei when she saw him being downcasted.

“There is nothing to be ashamed about what you just did. The cultivation world is always full of ruthless and scheming people so you must do everything you can to succeed.”

Elder Jing’s word of enlightenment caused Yang Wei to raise his head up and nod.

However, before Yang Wei could be proud of his work to ambush the Nascent Soul cultivator as a Qi Condensation realm, Elder Jing continued her explanation.

“It was also because you simply ambushed a weakened and exhausted Nascent Soul realm that made your body and mind refuse to utilize their full potential. Thus, making you encounter the bottleneck since you have advanced too quickly in your cultivation base as well.” 

“But I have already solidified my foundation to make up for my fast cultivation base,” Yang Wei said in response.

He knew that he had advanced too quickly so he had already stopped trying to cultivate and simply tried to strengthen his foundation before trying for another breakthrough.

“You may have solidified your foundation but the damage has already been done.” Elder Jing said, shattering the last hopes of Yang Wei.

‘S-So in the end… I encountered a bottleneck because of my carelessness,’ Yang Wei sighed inwardly.

Seeing the hopeless Yang Wei, Elder Jing laughed softly. “You don’t have to be sighing in defeat since the sparring we did this week has already helped you get over it.”

Yang Wei’s expression brightened up as he forgot that he was no longer stuck in the bottleneck.

“R-Right, Jing Feng is really the best, always guiding this ignorant man,” Yang Wei smiled as he started bootlicking Elder Jing.

At the same time, he tried to be sneaky and leaned in for a kiss.

Alas, Elder Jing was smart enough to not realize his intention as she quickly retreated back to avoid Yang Wei’s action.

“Don’t even try to do some intimate things when you have more important tasks to do,” Elder Jing glared at Yang Wei as she ordered him to sit in a lotus position.

Yang Wei smiled cheekily as he quickly sat in a lotus position while perking his ears up to listen to Elder Jing’s instruction.

Elder Jing nodded as she retrieved a pill from her spatial ring. 

Afterward, she threw it to Yang Wei and said, “This is a breakthrough pill, and don’t worry about it affecting your foundation. The reason why alchemy pills are expensive and rare is that they have little to zero effect in a cultivator’s path.”

“I believe you, Jing Feng. You don’t have to explain it to me,” Yang Wei smiled brightly at her as he consumed the pill directly.

He has complete trust in Elder Jing and the thought about her betraying him has never crossed his mind.

Thus, Yang Wei was reassured to know he can become stronger after the gruesome sparring that has almost cost his life since Elder Jing didn’t give him any break.

Once Yang Wei swallows the pill down to his spiritual core, he can feel a gush of pure spiritual qi forming in his body.

“Don’t worry, the pill will supply you with sufficient spiritual qi to breakthrough so allow it to happen without any resistance,” Elder Jing’s voice echoed into Yang Wei’s ear as he kept his eyes closed to concentrate.

Yang Wei nodded as he allowed the newly formed spiritual qi to flow throughout his body parts, allowing him to have a nice and smooth breakthrough.

Sometime later, when the spiritual qi hit its limits, Yang Wei opened his eyes as he roared slightly and a beam of light shot out from his body.

BOOM!

A wave of spiritual qi was sent throughout the area as Yang Wei’s cultivation has finally become in the 9th Qi Condensation. He was now at the peak of his current realm and one more breakthrough would send him to be a Foundation Core cultivator.

“Jing Feng, I finally breakthrough,” Yang Wei stood up happily as he hurriedly leaped toward Elder Jing before giving her a warm and embracing hug.

Elder Jing patted his back slightly and congratulated him on breaking through.

“Now that you have successfully broken through and the mysterious realm is about to come to an end, you must start practicing some other martial techniques to take the inner disciple exam.” Elder Jing then said, shocking Yang Wei as he forgot that he was still a lowly outer disciple.

Although Elder Jing can use her authority to directly promote Yang Wei, she didn’t want to give him too much advantage as that will do him more harm than good.

Yang Wei must earn his inner disciple token through his own effort and must not rely on others.

‘Only the strong are respected while the ones who used their connection without any strength are doomed to be disgusted by others,’ Elder Jing exclaimed inwardly as she allowed Yang Wei to celebrate for a little longer.
