Chapter 549: Chapter 305: Chi Yue True Monarch, Five Inches Nine, Zhao Ming

"A Desire-Burning Breath Transformation Pill and a corresponding Tier Four Middle Grade Pill Formula, that’s a decent gain."

"The key is knowing the location of a high-tier special Spirit Flame. I need to wait until my proficiency in the Fire-Seeking Technique is higher, then go to the deepest part of the ’Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain’ to use it and find it."

"Finally, there are three Tier Four Middle Grade Sea Demon Cores, along with many precious Tier Four Middle Grade Sea Demon Beast Materials, and a considerable amount of common resources."

After organizing his gains, Qi Chuan had a clear plan for his future actions.

First, he made a trip to the Myriad Flowers Hall, where he handed over some low-tier resources, unused by himself, to Qingyun True Monarch. These resources would be used to enrich the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect’s treasure vault.

During the process, he also had an exchange with Qingyun True Monarch.

He learned that recently there were no major events happening in Beihua State; both the Cangjian Pavilion and the Yin Yang Mansion were very obedient, and he felt relieved.

Afterward, he returned directly to his Cave Mansion to begin refining the three Tier Four Middle Grade Sea Demon Cores into Nascent Soul Pills.

Seven or eight days passed, and all three cauldrons of Nascent Soul Pills were successfully refined.

Each cauldron formed five, six, and six pills respectively.

In total, he gained seventeen Nascent Soul Pills, which was quite gratifying.

These seventeen Nascent Soul Pills were enough for Qi Chuan to use for a long time.

Upon completion of the refinement, Qi Chuan immediately picked up a Nascent Soul Pill and swallowed it: "Let’s test the taste first."

The taste was excellent.

The elixir melted in his mouth, transforming into a substantial and pure medicinal power, entering Qi Chuan’s body.

Taking advantage of the rich medicinal power, Qi Chuan went straight to the Secluded Stone Chamber, sat cross-legged on the bed, took out the Mysterious Stone Talisman, and began his cultivation by operating the Sword Technique.

In no time, a Grand Circulation was completed.

Qi Chuan opened his eyes, and a line of script appeared before him.

[You operate the Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique, absorbing the Spiritual Qi of the Tier Four Cave Mansion and the Mysterious Stone Talisman, refining the medicinal power of the Nascent Soul Pill, converting it into your own Nascent Soul, triggering a fourteenfold critical strike, gaining fourteenfold rewards. Your Nascent Soul foundation has slightly improved, and the height of your Nascent Soul has grown slightly.]

With the appearance of the script, Qi Chuan could clearly feel that in the Dantian, the foundation and height of his Nascent Soul had both been enhanced to a certain extent.

"As expected of a Nascent Soul Pill, its efficacy is quite remarkable..."

Feeling the extent of improvement in his Nascent Soul foundation and height, Qi Chuan nodded with satisfaction.

In truth, having reached his current level of cultivation, progress was already very slow. To be able to clearly perceive improvement in his Nascent Soul foundation and height after cultivation was quite commendable.

Originally, cultivating a Grand Circulation with no noticeable change in the Dantian’s Nascent Soul was considered normal.

Thus, Qi Chuan was quite pleased.

He promptly closed his eyes, operated the Sword Technique, and resumed his cultivation: "How many years would it take, at this pace of cultivation, for the height of my Nascent Soul to truly reach my limit of six inches?"

Years fly by in the Cultivation Immortality.

Under Qi Chuan’s consistent effort following his cultivation routine, five years passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day.

In the Secluded Stone Chamber, Qi Chuan, seated cross-legged on the bed, slightly moved his eyelids and slowly opened his eyes. A touch of azure light flashed in the depths of his eyes.

[You operate the Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique, absorbing the Spiritual Qi of the Tier Four Cave Mansion and the Mysterious Stone Talisman, refining the medicinal power of the Nascent Soul Pill, converting it into your own Nascent Soul, triggering a sixteenfold critical strike, gaining sixteenfold rewards. Your Nascent Soul foundation has slightly improved, and the height of your Nascent Soul has grown slightly.]

At the same time, a line of script appeared before him.

Seeing this, Qi Chuan smiled slightly.

Then, he relaxedly sensed the foundation and height of his own Nascent Soul within the Dantian.

"This is..."

After a moment of introspection, Qi Chuan raised his eyebrows, showing a hint of surprise on his face.

"...The height of my Nascent Soul has actually reached five inches and nine, at this point?"

At this moment, under his introspection, it was very clear to see that little Nascent Soul sitting in the Dantian was a full five inches and nine high!

Five inches and nine!

According to ordinary cultivators, at this moment, Qi Chuan has truly reached what he belongs to — the Quasi-Great True Monarch Realm!

And before, even though some considered him to be in the Quasi-Great True Monarch Realm, it was actually not the case.

Previously, his Nascent Soul height only exceeded five inches and eight.

That was solely because his Nascent Soul had evolved from a First-Grade Nine Orifice Golden Core, granting his Nascent Soul extraordinarily high quality. At the same Nascent Soul height, the foundation of his Nascent Soul far surpassed ordinary people, leading to some misunderstanding by others.

Qi Chuan didn’t see much need to clarify this misunderstanding.

Could he actively explain to others the extraordinary quality of his Nascent Soul?

Thus, he just let others speculate.

"However, with my current Nascent Soul height of five inches and nine, could my Nascent Soul foundation now be equivalent to that of a true Peak of Nascent Soul Middle Stage, or rather, the foundation level of a Nascent Soul at the extreme height of five inches and ninety-nine?"

Qi Chuan couldn’t help but secretly ponder.

If possible.

At this point, although he had just reached the Quasi-Great True Monarch Realm.

In the eyes of others, he might well be equivalent to a Nascent Soul at the Peak of Nascent Soul Middle Stage with five inches and ninety-nine, matching the Realm of the Strongest Quasi-Great True Monarch.

A figure who is just one step away from a true Great True Monarch!

"But others would never guess that a Nascent Soul height of six inches is my true limit for the Nascent Soul Middle Stage!"

Qi Chuan sighed softly: "I took more than five years to cultivate from a Nascent Soul height of five inches and eight to five inches and nine."

"It seems from five inches and nine to six inches of Nascent Soul height will take at least six years... continuous effort is still necessary..."

"However, one thing..."

"Once my Nascent Soul height truly reaches six inches, then at that time, even though I would not have ascended to the Realm of Great True Monarch, whether in the eyes of others or in terms of my own power, I’m afraid there will be no difference from a true Great True Monarch."

For the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, the Nascent Soul height ranges from three inches to five inches and ninety-nine.

In the Nascent Soul Late Stage Realm, the Nascent Soul height ranges from six inches to ten inches.

At that time, Qi Chuan could indeed be considered a Great True Monarch.

Just with slightly lower foundation than most Great True Monarchs.

Even so, it’s not something any quasi-Great True Monarch in the Cultivation Realm could hope to match.

Thump thump!

As Qi Chuan was pondering, sudden fluctuations arose from the array outside the Cave Mansion.

Qi Chuan raised his gaze, looking toward the direction outside the Cave Mansion.

In his perception, Sect Leader Zhao Ming was waiting respectfully outside of the array.

"There must be something he wants to discuss..."

Qi Chuan got up, exited the Cave Mansion, and opened the array covering the Cave Mansion.

"Greetings, Second Supreme Elder." Seeing Qi Chuan, Zhao Ming still respectfully saluted.

"No need for formalities, Sect Leader." Qi Chuan showed a gentle demeanor.

"Yes!"

Zhao Ming slightly relaxed, then relayed his task: "The First Supreme Elder instructed me to invite you; there’s something important and he’s currently waiting in the Myriad Flowers Hall."

"I understand, I’ll head there immediately."

Qi Chuan nodded, and then, in a flash, transformed into an Escape Light, soaring toward the sky, disappearing from Zhao Ming’s sight.

Zhao Ming turned, respectfully saluting again in the direction where Qi Chuan vanished.

Swoosh!

Just then, a whistling sound came from the void ahead.

Zhao Ming looked up, seeing a Tier Four Lower Grade Elixir, enveloped in a Nascent Soul, floating before him.

"Sect Leader Senior Brother, this elixir is for you, please don’t stand on ceremony."

A gentle voice echoed in his ears.

"Thank you, Second Supreme Elder!"

Zhao Ming extended his hands, cradling the elixir in his palms, with a shimmer in his eyes.
