On the path of cultivation, the higher the level, the more difficult it was to make a breakthrough.
When Lin Yun entered the Yellow Spring Camp, he told Ye Chen that it would take him three years or even longer to make a breakthrough.
However, in this short month, Ye Chen made a series of breakthroughs, from the late stage of the Second Sky of Truth realm to the middle stage of the Third Sky of Truth realm.
This speed could be said to be extremely amazing.
But now, in his Yuan sea, the solid barrier was on the verge of collapse. The endless Yuan energy was like a fierce tiger, constantly attacking, and the momentum was getting more and more fierce.
Puff!
Accompanied by a muffled sound.
The barrier was shattered, and the Yuan energy in the entire cultivation room was crazily rushing towards Ye Chen. The momentum was so great that it even affected the surrounding cultivation rooms.
"What's going on?
It seems that the Yuan energy is being sucked away all of a sudden? "
"Judging from this movement, it should be an Origin Aura realm powerhouse making a breakthrough. But the strange thing is, most Origin Aura powerhouses are cultivating on the fourth floor or above. Why would they come to the second floor?"
The crowd was discussing spiritedly, and their hearts were full of doubts.
At this time, in the stone room.
Ye Chen's whole body was bathed in golden light. He opened his eyes and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Late stage of the Third Sky of Truth realm!
With this breakthrough, Ye Chen's Yuan energy storage had increased by 30%, and his Yuan sea had doubled in size. Now, it was comparable to a Fifth Sky of Truth realm expert. What was even more surprising was that his physical strength was close to a terrifying 90,000 jin, which was twice as much as an ordinary cultivator at the same level.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Chen slightly sighed, "This life and death battle stimulated the potential in my body. Coupled with the residual efficacy of the nine lotus seeds, I was able to make a breakthrough again."
But …
Suddenly, Ye Chen's complexion became somewhat dignified.
The rapid improvement of his cultivation was extremely gratifying, but after all, it was relying on the powerful efficacy of the Arctic Ice Lotus, not Ye Chen's own cultivation. Therefore, his cultivation realm was not stable, and it was easy to produce the Qi of Emptiness.
To eliminate the Qi of Emptiness, it required a period of meditation, continuous polishing, and continuous consolidation. If the Qi of Emptiness was not eliminated, then it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven to continue to make breakthroughs in the future.
"Although heavenly treasures are good, they are easy to produce Qi of Emptiness and disturb the cultivation heart. In that powerhouse's memory, it mentioned that after taking some elixirs, it could improve the cultivation realm, and prevent the Qi of Emptiness."
With this thought, Ye Chen's heart was somewhat excited.
Of Emptiness, the powerhouse of Emptiness, especially in alchemy, it could be described as extensive and profound.........................................

Ye Chen walked out of the Nine Feather Tower.
The surrounding crowd's gazes fell one after another, and all of them were filled with reverence. They immediately opened up a path.
Ye Chen glanced at them and his expression changed slightly.
In the world of martial artists, if you had strength, you had everything. If you did not have strength, you would only be bullied.
More than a month ago, when he first entered the Yuhua Sect, no one took him seriously. They were all arrogant and looked at him with disdain. Now, Ye Chen's name had spread throughout the Yuhua Sect. Naturally, no one dared to look down on him.
Ye Chen lifted his foot and was about to walk towards his residence. However, at this moment, a figure flashed over and slowly landed in front of Ye Chen.
Lin Guanqi?
Seeing this person, Ye Chen frowned slightly. He did not expect to meet him here.
"You broke through?"
Lin Guanqi looked at him and could feel that Ye Chen's aura had become much stronger. He was happy at first, but then his expression darkened. He said in a warning tone, "Ye Chen, although breaking through is a joyous thing, I can feel that your body is weak. During this time, you must consolidate your cultivation. Don't let it affect your future."
"I will remember." Ye Chen nodded. Seeing that Lin Guanqi had no intention of leaving, he asked, "Do you need something from me?"
"Did you forget that you have to go to the royal banquet today?"
Lin Guanqi's words enlightened Ye Chen. He slapped his head. He really had forgotten about it.
Lin Guanqi raised his head and looked at Ye Chen helplessly. He said, "The banquet is about to start. If you want to attend, come with me. If you refuse, it's fine."
"Then I'll go with you."
Ye Chen hesitated for a moment, but then nodded in agreement.
After the battle of life and death, Ye Chen deeply felt how powerful the enemy he was facing was. If he was alone, it would be fine. At worst, he could just wander the world. But after considering Ye Yao, he decided to attend the royal banquet.
Lin Guanqi did not expect Ye Chen to be so cooperative. He smiled and led Ye Chen out of the Yuhua Sect.
The location of the banquet was the famous Lake Pavilion.
The two of them rushed forward. Approximately an hour later, they stepped into the pavilion at the center of the lake.
Looking at the elegantly decorated scenery in front of him, surrounded by green bamboos, birds chirping, flowers fragrant, and the sound of flowing water could be heard from time to time. Simple and elegant, it made Ye Chen feel extremely comfortable.
It was hard to believe that there was such a pure place in the Imperial City, where good and bad mixed together.
But Ye Chen noticed that among the guests coming and going, almost all of them had respectful expressions. They held congratulatory gifts of various sizes in their hands. They looked hurried as they walked forward.
"Tonight, the royal family is holding a banquet. Why are these people giving gifts?"
Ye Chen looked at Lin Guanqi in confusion. Lin Guanqi smiled faintly and asked, "Ye Chen, do you know Duan Chongyu?"
"Duan Chongyu?"
Ye Chen shook his head. He had never heard of this name.
The smile on Lin Guanqi's face deepened. "Duan Chongyu's name is known by everyone in the Imperial City. He is an idler who stands aloof from worldly affairs. He is also a royal official who holds great power in the Imperial Court. He is also an expert who hides in the city."
"Now, when the princes of the Qinwu Dynasty see Duan Chongyu, they all have to bow and call him Master. Even the current emperor has to call Duan Chongyu Master. It's the same for the previous emperor, and even the emperor before the emperor before that."
"Generation after generation, year after year, Duan Chongyu has become a legend of the Qinwu Dynasty. Today is his birthday. This banquet is naturally held for him by the royal family."
After hearing this, Ye Chen was shocked. He looked at Lin Guanqi in surprise. "Even the previous emperors have to call Duan Chongyu master. Hasn't he lived for hundreds of years? Is he a Saint Plane cultivator?"
From the memories of the cultivators, Ye Chen also had a good understanding of the Saint Plane.
To be able to survive through several dynasties and still be alive, this Duan Chongyu must be a cultivator of the Longevity Realm.
With a lifespan of more than 10,000 years, he would be as old as the heavens.
"Yes, Duan Chongyu is indeed a cultivator of the Saint Plane. He is now in the Second Heaven of the Saint Plane."
At this point, Lin Guanqi suddenly turned his head and said casually, "However, compared to his achievements in the path of cultivation, Duan Chongyu's attainments in the path of alchemy are what truly shocked and impressed everyone."
Alchemy?
Ye Chen was slightly surprised and immediately asked, "Then what level is he now?"
"He is already in the sixth level. He can be called a grandmaster of alchemy."
As he spoke, Lin Guanqi's expression became serious. He did not hide the admiration in his heart.
