Chapter 1421: Switching to Primal Energy Cultivation
Success or failure rests on this single move.
After about seven or eight days, Lin Feng sat cross-legged on a rock before the cave, his eyes solemn.
He had been seriously studying for seven or eight days, following the Mist Love Sect attendant he had captured.
Supported by his vast soul power, he had almost learned all the knowledge about primal energy cultivation from that woman's mind.
Even, if not for that woman's pondering and other distractions, he could have learned it even faster!
"Giving up fighting qi to cultivate primal energy, I never expected to take this path opposite to Liuxi's so quickly."
Thinking of how Liuxi had given up primal energy to cultivate fighting qi, while he now did the opposite, Lin Feng couldn't help feeling a mix of laughter and tears.
"Never mind all that; hurry up and finish the initial conversion, then head out. Staying all day in this desolate mountain forest is just too boring."
Then he shook his head, gently closed his eyes, cleared his mind, and tentatively sensed the surrounding primal energy.
Of course, before the conversion, he should first expel the fighting qi within his body.
Unfortunately, his fighting qi had long been exhausted; there was none left to expel.
Thus, he saved himself this step.
Immediately after, his hands flew together, constantly forming various hand seals.
At the same time, the surrounding primal energy showed a slight fluctuation.
After all, compared to ordinary beginners just starting to cultivate primal energy, Lin Feng had cultivated fighting qi for over thirty years; although fighting qi and primal energy are not entirely identical, many aspects are similar.
Therefore, he was undoubtedly far superior to those true beginners.
Moreover, although his fighting qi was gone, his soul power was still truly present!
Thus, in sensing primal energy, Lin Feng held a complete advantage.
"Sit cross-legged, guard the void valley; draw myriad to the Hundred Meetings."
"Exhale and inhale to engender new life; the dantian contains heavenly spirit."
"."
As he continuously performed the method of absorbing primal energy, a certain energy in the surrounding air suddenly separated from other gases and rushed toward his head, finally flying upward into the Hundred Meetings.
This energy was exactly the primal energy Lin Feng needed!
Because his soul power was strong, and he had over thirty years of cultivation experience.
Thus his initial cultivation was exceptionally smooth and swift.
If the people of this continent saw his initial cultivation speed, they'd likely be shocked enough to dislocate their jaws.
After all, a normal person's initial cultivation might take several months before they can first sense the existence of primal energy.
Even excellent talents would similarly need ten days to half a month.
As a result, you cultivated and sensed and absorbed primal energy on the spot.
Such speed, even the continent's top genius could not match yours!
However, Lin Feng at this moment obviously would not pay attention to these.
Upon sensing that a stream of energy had been drawn into his body, he vaguely guessed that this must be primal energy.
Thinking this, he quickly circulated the Burning Technique, drawing the continually incoming energy into its cultivation path.
Then he guided it, rapidly circulating it through his meridians.
After all, he had previously asked Liuxi; those of the Hundred Origin Continent who convert to cultivate fighting qi need not change their techniques.
He himself had confirmed this: the technique that woman cultivated was indeed quite different from what he usually saw.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't resemble anything from the Fighting Qi Continent.
Furthermore, in the original work, Xiao Yan, after going to the Da Qian Shijie, likewise only converted to cultivate spiritual power without changing his technique, and still could cultivate normally.
Thus, he dared to confidently use the Fighting Qi Continent's technique to convert to cultivate the Hundred Origin Continent's primal energy.
Of course, his strong body also meant he had no fear of this little primal energy going berserk.
After all, as long as he didn't recklessly gulp down a large amount of primal energy, relying on his body stronger than a Dou Emperor–level magic beast.
A mere bit of primal energy, even if it surged, could not possibly harm him.
Meanwhile, as Lin Feng guided this energy into his meridians for rapid circulation,
under the refinement of the Emperor‑level Burning Technique, those energies were quickly refined and finally merged into the cells within Lin Feng's body.
"The situation is normal; it seems the Fighting Qi Continent's technique can indeed normally accommodate primal energy cultivation."
With the absorption, upon discovering his body could normally accept primal energy without issue, Lin Feng couldn't help but a hint of joy appear at the corner of his mouth.
Seeing that the cultivation was normal, he immediately began to mobilize more soul power.
Absorbing primal energy from a wider area into his body, he began to accelerate his cultivation.
And after successfully absorbing primal energy into his body, Lin Feng became directly immersed in this cultivation.
Meanwhile, as the sun and moon turned, the days quickly passed one after another.
In the blink of an eye, six days had quietly slipped away in his cultivation.
During this time, Lin Feng's cultivation level surged upward rapidly.
In just six days' time, he reached the Pellet Gathering Peak!
As for the Hundred Origin Continent's cultivation ranks, from low to high they are: Nasal Element, Meridian Opening, Pellet Gathering, Lower Three Tribulations, Heavenly Response, Union with Heaven, Upper Three Tribulations, Comprehending Origin, and Origin Realm.
Pellet Gathering Peak, if simply and crudely converted to the Fighting Qi Continent's cultivation realm, is roughly equivalent to the Grand Fighting Master Peak.
Thus, it amounts to Lin Feng, in six days, advancing from the initial entry into the Fighting Strength realm all the way up to near the Fighting Spirit level.
However, this is not strange, after all, for him his body and soul have no bottlenecks.
All he needs to do is absorb primal energy day and night without cease to level up.
Furthermore, while absorbing primal energy, he can rely on his vast soul power to speed up the absorption.
Its speed, who knows how many times faster than that of a true cultivator who now reaches the same level as him.
"Boom—"
And after another day of cultivation, Lin Feng's head suddenly began to stir with wind and clouds.
Immediately after, the distant sky suddenly saw a patch of dark black clouds about thirty zhang wide and long drifting over.
Furthermore, at that moment, Lin Feng, whose perception was extremely sharp, suddenly sensed something and lifted his head.
"Suddenly having a feeling of being locked onto, it seems this heavenly tribulation is quite intelligent, actually knowing to lock onto the person undergoing the heavenly tribulation; not bad, also lets me test how powerful the heavenly tribulation of the Hundred Source Continent is."
Looking at the dark clouds flying in the sky, Lin Feng, who already had fairly rich theoretical knowledge of vital energy cultivation, knew that he had broken through from the Peak of Pill Gathering to the Lower Three Tribulations Realm.
And this advancement depends solely on surviving this heavenly tribulation.
Only after undergoing the tribulation lightning's baptism can one successfully advance.
Of course, for a normal cultivator at the Peak of Pill Gathering, this is an exceptionally troublesome heavenly tribulation.
In front of Lin Feng, this former Dou Emperor powerhouse, it appeared rather 'weak'.
Before, when he was on the Fighting Qi Continent, the lightning attracted by refining pills.
Even the lightning from the birth of a seventh-grade pill is ten times stronger than this momentum!
Moreover, even Little Nine, attached to Lin Feng's arm, merely gave a simple glance upon seeing the dark clouds flying in the sky.
Then, disdainfully, it pursed its lips and continued to sleep.
"Boom—"
Meanwhile, the vast dark cloud tens of zhang wide in the sky, upon drifting over Lin Feng's head, soon began to have silvery lightning snakes flickering within.
Soon after, the thunder within the dark clouds grew more and more.
Finally, when its quantity reached a certain degree, the silver thunder within the clouds began to converge toward the center of the dark cloud.
"Boom—"
Not long after, a bolt of silver lightning as thick as three fingers fiercely struck down toward Lin Feng below.
After tracing a silver flash in the air, it directly struck Lin Feng's body!
However, the moment this silver lightning touched his body, it itself violently exploded, returning to nothing.
"Mm, not bad, just a bit short of reaching the attack power of the Fighting King on the Fighting Qi Continent. It seems the vital energy produced on the Hundred Source Continent is stronger, making cultivators indeed much more formidable. Clearly, a Lower Three Tribulations cultivator at the fourth stage of cultivation corresponds to a Fighting Spirit cultivator on the Fighting Qi Continent. Yet, without fully breaking through to the Lower Three Tribulations, one can still withstand heavenly thunder comparable to that of a Peak Fighting Spirit cultivator on the Fighting Qi Continent."
And after experiencing the heavenly thunder that must be endured to advance to the Lower Three Tribulations, Lin Feng soon laughed and looked up to praise: 'Not bad, little guy, you're quite diligent, just the power is a bit small; later you need to work harder.'
"???"
Facing the murmuring of the people below, the heavenly tribulation's mind for a moment actually couldn't turn.
However, soon after, sensing the strong provocation and insult, the heavenly tribulation fiercely struck down another bolt of thunder.
However, as expected, even without Lin Feng using vital energy to resist, this heavenly thunder could not injure his flesh in the slightest.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Seeing this, the heavenly thunder above, unwilling, again mobilized its power and fiercely smashed toward the people below.
However, this had no use at all.
Below, Lin Feng, until the heavenly thunder in the dark clouds was exhausted, never suffered even a single hair injured.
Finally, that extremely frustrated heavenly tribulation.
It could only puff up its face and leave here angrily. (End of chapter)
