Chapter 35: It's only been a few days, and the master wants to breakthrough again?

Afterwards, Gu Xiangxiang leaned against Lu Chen, her flushed face showing a hint of confusion.

As for the cause of her confusion, it was naturally the same as Su Qian's: she didn't understand why Lu Chen had her perform the Harvesting and Supplementing Technique.

"Lu Chen, aren't you worried that after I harvest and supplement you, your realm will regress?"

"Not worried." After Lu Chen entered sage's time, his attention was no longer on Gu Xiangxiang.

"..." Gu Xiangxiang's confused expression deepened, but she couldn't say anything else.

After a brief rest to recover his strength, Lu Chen got out of bed, took out the Extreme Martial Devil Canon that Gu Xiangxiang had just given him, found a spot, and prepared to cultivate on the spot.

Watching the bedding that Lu Chen had lifted, Gu Xiangxiang also didn't know what she was thinking for a moment.

As the cultivation proceeded, Lu Chen quickly entered the state.

The flow of time seemed to speed up, and before he knew it, half an hour had passed.

Due to fatigue, Gu Xiangxiang had already fallen asleep.

Moreover, it was deep night, and the entire room was silent.

Lu Chen was cultivating with focus when he was suddenly interrupted by a knocking sound.

Knock knock.

Sensing the visitor's aura, his expression changed and he seemed unhappy.

Lu Chen, I've come to apologize.

The visitor was none other than Mei Qianxue.

Lu Chen said nothing, closed his eyes, and cultivated again.

A few days ago he had set up several formations at his residence; unless the other party violently broke them, they couldn't enter.

With the blessing of the Supreme Dao Foundation, his cultivation speed is now astonishing.

Just an hour passed, and he had already cultivated the Extreme Martial Devil Canon to the Entry Level Realm.

Opening his eyes, he discovered that the other party was still outside.

This woman's desire to grow stronger is truly strong.

Lu Chen clearly understood that the other party's purpose in approaching him was nothing more than to rely on him to advance further.

Given the other party's Dao Foundation level, even if they painstakingly cultivated their whole life within the Nine Abyss Gate, exhausting their lifespan would at most allow them to reach the Spirit Transformation Stage.

But if they could obtain the resources of the Heavenly Demon Sect, then everything would have infinite possibilities.

It is rumored that within the Heavenly Demon Sect there exists a demonic cultivation method capable of altering one's Dao Foundation, and she is likely here for that purpose.

Lu Chen stopped thinking about it and entered cultivation again.

This time, he cultivated until dawn.

Minor Accomplishment achieved, how fast!

He glanced outside; Mei Qianxue had already left.

Seeing that, he took out the Heart-Soul Guiding Technique and continued cultivating.

Once a cultivation method reaches the Minor Accomplishment Realm, further practice basically no longer requires reliance on texts.

Therefore, he also returned the Extreme Martial Devil Canon to Gu Xiangxiang's storage bag.

Gu Xiangxiang slept soundly this nap, sleeping until midday before slowly waking up.

After waking, she discovered that Lu Chen had stayed up all night and was still cultivating.

Not wanting to disturb him, she lightly got out of bed and left the room.

Before leaving, she didn't even check whether anything was missing from her storage bag.

It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that Lu Chen finally ended his cultivation state and opened his eyes.

From his hard-to-conceal excited expression, it could be seen that the gains from this cultivation were enormous.

As expected of the Pulling Technique!

The time he took to cultivate the Pulling Technique to Minor Accomplishment was several times that of the Extreme Martial Devil Canon, which also indicates the strength of the Pulling Technique.

With the System's reversal, he can now easily turn a person into a slave.

Of course, this also comes at a cost.

Ninety percent of his soul power requires a long time to recover.

Just like the Qi Luo Empress.

Her soul power is now extremely weak; relying on natural recovery would take at least hundreds, even thousands of years.

Even if Lu Chen had bodily support and could take restorative pills, fully recovering his soul power would still take at least a whole year, or even longer.

During that year, the damage to his soul would prevent him from exerting his full strength.

Therefore, the Pulling Technique must never be used casually.

Has Senior Sister Gu left?

Seeing the bed empty, Lu Chen knew that the other party likely didn't want to disturb his cultivation.

Let's go find Su Qian; I feel another breakthrough coming.

Soon, he arrived at Su Qian's residence; at that moment, Su Qian was cultivating.

She had been immersed in the Early Concentration Stage for many years; these days, after letting go of harvesting and supplementing Lu Chen, she faintly felt that her realm had loosened a bit.

The formation restrictions in the room were not set against Lu Chen, so he easily entered her room.

Seeing that she was cultivating, Lu Chen also did not disturb her; instead, he found a spot to continue cultivating.

According to the Sect Master, one month after the Grand Competition, the Holy Sons and Holy Daughters selected from the Heavenly Demon Sect's major affiliated sects must go to the Heavenly Demon Sect for tempering.

If they pass the trial, they can remain in the Heavenly Demon Sect and enjoy treatment equal to that of its core disciples.

At that time, they will not only be able to enjoy the Heavenly Demon Sect's vast foundation support, but also possess greater freedom rights.

Given Lu Chen's current status, he can at most move about near the Nine Abyss Gate; if discovered by other sects, he would still be subjected to interrogation.

He has been in this world for many years, yet he has never seen what a righteous cultivator looks like.

Therefore, to be able to see the outside world, he must train diligently.

Over the next week, he shuttled daily between his residence and Su Qian's residence, and the Hall of Killing Qi.

After Su Qian broke through to the mid-stage of Spirit Concentration, the effect of her being dual-cultivated also increased.

By day she is Su Qian, by night she is the Empress, and in her free time she goes to the Hall of Killing Qi to train other techniques.

Day after day, he repaired and cultivated.

Until that day, when he dual-cultivated with Su Qian, he faintly felt that he was about to break through.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

Su Qian saw him suddenly get out of bed and asked, puzzled.

Just as it reached the most exciting point, clearly she was just a little away from...

"It's nothing, just lie down."

"I'm breaking through a realm, I'll be fine soon."

"Master, you're breaking through again?"

Hearing Lu Chen mention breaking through a realm with that relaxed tone, Su Qian was filled with disbelief.

Clearly, just a few days ago he had just broken through to mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and now he is about to directly break through to completion of Foundation Establishment.

At this rate, isn't it that Lu Chen will reach the Nurturing Elixir Realm in a month?

She remembered that, when she herself advanced from mid-stage Foundation Establishment to the Nurturing Elixir Realm, it had taken her several years.

If it weren't for her recently continuously dual-cultivating with Lu Chen, she might still be in the early stage of the Nurturing Elixir Realm.

Not only was she shocked, but the Empress's spirit body floating nearby also felt a bit doubtful.

"You little brat, do you have some special constitution? Being dual-cultivated by us every day, not regressing in cultivation would be enough, yet you actually manage to make progress?"

"Besides, you're really bold, cultivating without clothes—are you planning to continue dual-cultivating with this younger sister after breaking through?"

Originally, she was still watching their activity with interest, but she didn't expect Lu Chen to suddenly stop.

"Hmm, I've gained some insight."

Lu Chen answered both of them at the same time.

Afterwards, he immediately found a mat to sit on, circulated his spiritual power, and prepared to break through.
