Within the stone room.
After an unknown period of time, Xiao Chen, who was on the stone bed, emitted an even denser azure light. Following that, the entire stone room was suddenly filled with a whistling wind. A formless air current surged violently. Regardless of whether it was the stone table or the stone chair, they were all trembling at this moment.
"I'm finally going to break through!"
Xiao Chen muttered. His eyes suddenly emitted a dazzling azure light. After a great deal of effort and the consumption of several Blood Refining realm pills, he had already opened eleven Heavenly Veins in his body. New Battle Qi surged, and his Blood Qi surged like a tide. Furthermore, the twelfth Heavenly Vein had already begun to crack under the surging Blood Qi.
He was prepared to open the twelfth Heavenly Vein in one go and form the Zhou Tian Qi Sea.
Opening the twelfth Heavenly Vein was the most important step in the Blood Refinement realm. It was also the most difficult of the twelve Heavenly Veins to open. Once this Heavenly Vein was opened, it would be the perfect Heavenly Vein. Martial artists would then have the ability to fight against the heavens, to form a nine-layered platform, to stand on the Martial Dao, and to condense an Eternal Immortal Martial Spirit.
Xiao Chen made a grabbing motion with his hand, and five light azure pills that emitted a dense pill fragrance floated in front of him.
Whoosh!
Xiao Chen opened his mouth and inhaled. A Medicinal Pill was instantly sucked into his stomach. Under the pressure of his vast Qi and blood, it turned into powder. The dense Medicinal Energy turned into a green light and entered his body. The Medicinal Energy contained in this Medicinal Pill was comparable to the Qi and blood of a Blood Refinement cultivator. After refining the Medicinal Pill, the impurities were removed and the essence of the Spirit Herb was gathered. This Medicinal Energy was extremely pure and gave off a dense fragrance.
Battle Qi roared within his body and flowed through the Heavenly Meridian, devouring the essence of the herbs. The new Battle Qi in the meridians began to expand and charge towards the last Heavenly Meridian like a ferocious wild beast.
Clang!
The surging Battle Qi contained the momentum of a thunderbolt. However, it was defeated. It was like it crashed into an ancient bronze bell, giving off a deep chime. Xiao Chen's expression was natural, as though this scene was within his expectations.
Opening the twelve Zhou Tian Qi Sea in the Blood Refining realm would form the Zhou Tian Qi Sea. The Heavenly Veins became more and more difficult to open. It could be said that the amount of energy required to open each Heavenly Vein increased exponentially.
Next, Xiao Chen's gaze fell on the remaining four pills. He took a deep breath, causing the air in front of him to distort and turn into an invisible stream of Qi that entered his mouth. Then, the remaining four pills all turned into powder. The dense medicinal energy filled his abdomen, and the four streams of medicinal energy fused into a brilliant green light that rushed into Xiao Chen's meridians.
The Heavenly Veins swallowed and spat out. His cultivation method circulated to the pinnacle, and the sparkling essence was several times stronger than before. Once the boundless medicinal energy rushed into the Heavenly Veins, Xiao Chen's entire body began to swell. His body couldn't help but tremble as the Battle Qi in the Heavenly Veins fused with the medicinal energy and rampaged through his body.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The surging stream of Qi once again fiercely smashed against the final Heavenly Vein's barrier. Like a wild beast, the Battle Qi raged and rammed against the rock-like Heavenly Vein's barrier with an unstoppable momentum.
Kacha!
Finally, a cracking sound came from within Xiao Chen's body. The stable barrier that was like a natural moat began to crack like a spider's web. But at this time, the surging Battle Qi in Xiao Chen's body had almost been consumed.
"I can't even break through the Heavenly Vein's barrier!" Xiao Chen bitterly smiled. This consumption was too great.
But how could he give up halfway? In the next moment, Xiao Chen grabbed at the air again, and several crystal clear primary stones appeared in front of him.
Cultivators in the Blood Refining Realm could already absorb the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi from low-grade primary stones, but Xiao Chen rarely used it. Compared to the medicinal energy and essence he had purified, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi from low-grade primary stones contained too many impurities. But now that he was about to break through, he had no choice but to release the arrow on the bowstring, so he couldn't care too much.
Whoosh!
With a big breath, the low-grade primary stones immediately shattered. The rich Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi turned into a white light and entered Xiao Chen's body, merging with the surging Battle Qi in his meridians. At this moment, the Heavenly Veins in his body shook once again, and the Battle Qi that had fallen to a low point surged again, fiercely colliding with the already cracked Heavenly Vein's barrier.
Boom!
A loud sound rang out from within Xiao Chen's body. It was as if the world had shattered. The Heavenly Vein's barrier was shattered, and the surging Battle Qi rushed in. An astonishing power rose from within his body, and the new Battle Qi flowed through the 12 Heavenly Veins. A brand new Zhou Tian cycle was formed. Xiao Chen had never felt so powerful before.
Boundless Qi flowed through the 12 Heavenly Veins, constantly nourishing his entire body and emitting a shocking aura. This was the smell of complete Zhou Tian. His body was like a whole. At this moment, Xiao Chen also felt that his body was dozens of times more sensitive than before, and he could sense the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi floating in the outside world more clearly.
The 12 Heavenly Veins were connected as one, and the circulation of his cultivation method became smoother and smoother. The speed at which he refined the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi was also inconceivably fast. This was also why peak Blood Refining cultivators could fight for a long time without running out of energy. They could absorb the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi into their bodies more quickly to replenish their Battle Qi.
"Fifty thousand kilograms of strength!"
The opening of the Heavenly Veins allowed Xiao Chen's body to be refined once again. The overflowing Essence Qi from breaking through the Heavenly Vein's barrier entered every corner of his body. With the Heavenly Vein's completion, Battle Qi could reach every corner of his body, and his strength could finally be condensed into one and harmonize with his body. Fifty thousand kilograms of strength. This was the strength that Xiao Chen currently possessed, and it had already surpassed the strength of an ordinary peak Blood Refining cultivator.
Not only that, the Bronze Battle Body that Xiao Chen cultivated had already turned one-third of his bones into Bronze Battle Bones. After these days of imperceptible influence, less than one-third of his bones had turned into Bronze Battle Bones. This was the foundation that supported Xiao Chen's Bronze Battle Body, and it was also the support that allowed him to exert the great strength of his body.
At this moment, Xiao Chen had finally reached the true pinnacle of the Blood Refining Realm. Half-step into the Heavy Floor Realm was equivalent to a ten thousand man commander among human Battle Masters. If the Purple Marten King of the Thousand Demon Mountain Range came again, Xiao Chen would not fight back with injuries, but would instead completely crush him.
As he gazed outside the stone house, every time Xiao Chen breathed, a faint green Qi would be released. An astonishing aura circulated around his body. After a long while, this aura gradually converged, and finally disappeared. At this moment, his entire person seemed to have become even more reserved, and gave off an otherworldly feeling.
