Chapter 56: Breakthrough and Instant Casting

East and Yin-Yang, West from Ten Thousand Stones, South swings Six Harmonies, North shoots Heavenly Wolf, Middle leads the world.

After ten consecutive times of the Five-Battle Killing Fist, Xu Jin felt a sense of thorough comfort. The tension from the two days of executing missions gradually dissipated during the process of focused cultivation.

After ten times, Xu Jin originally wanted to receive starlight, but the bursts of crying from the Martial Arts Hall in the distance gave Xu Jin an indescribable emotion, urgent, inexplicably urgent.

Xu Jin simply directly introduced the starlight on the Arena into his body, continuously performing the Five-Battle Killing Fist, until all two threads of second-tier starlight on the Arena were consumed. After Xu Jin stopped, his mind was finally completely stable.

Forty-two consecutive times of the Five-Battle Killing Fist, the body-tempering progress was gratifying, and the body-tempering progress on his right leg surged by over two inches visibly.

The effect was much stronger than the usual four rounds of ten times each.

With Star Power support, Xu Jin was not tired. He continued the Drinking-Brilliance style. After the Star Power in the Star Pattern was restored to full, he started cultivating again.

After four rounds, the body-tempering progress of Xu Jin's right leg improved by over an inch again. Xu Jin directly took a nourished Spirit-Refreshing Pill.

In an instant, strands of warm and cool power rushed directly to his head. Under this impact, even the not-yet-completely-finished Clear-Soul Star Pattern brightened a bit.

One minute later, the previously obscure Clear-Soul Star Pattern became bright.

The mental fatigue brought by the four rounds of the Drinking-Brilliance style cultivated before had completely disappeared, replaced by spirit.

A hundred times the spirit.

It was like taking a stimulant; Xu Jin felt that he was unprecedentedly spirited and could fight for a night.

Full.

One Spirit-Refreshing Pill nourished for twelve hours directly restored Xu Jin's current Soul Power to full.

And before, ordinary Spirit-Refreshing Pills could only restore half.

That is to say, the effect of nourishing a pill to have a circle of halo, one nourishment, should be the same: both increase the pill's effect by one time.

At least currently, the Star-Supplementing Pill and the Spirit-Refreshing Pill are like this.

Continue cultivating. After four rounds of the Drinking-Brilliance style, another forty times of the Five-Battle Killing Fist, Xu Jin took a Star-Supplementing Pill, and another five times of the Five-Battle Killing Fist, Xu Jin then slowly stood up.

Mobilizing starlight to observe, the body-tempering progress of his right leg surged by another inch and a half.

The total number of times the Five-Battle Killing Fist was cultivated today was close to one hundred and twenty times, and the cultivation effect was also very amazing, with the total body-tempering progress close to five inches.

The starlight on his right leg was about to cover his knees.

If he could continue to maintain such high-intensity cultivation, Xu Jin estimated that he could break through within three to five days.

Wiping off his sweat, Xu Jin rinsed his body with cool water by the well, and then returned to the dormitory.

In fact, this is also progress.

If it were twenty days ago, that is, before lighting the stars, how would Xu Jin dare to rinse his body with cool water.

Daring to rinse with cool water, this body would dare to give Xu Jin a serious illness.

Now, it doesn't matter.

The prominent muscles, even Xu Jin himself liked them.

He would involuntarily touch them more.

At the door of the dormitory, just as he was about to enter, the door of the single dormitory next door suddenly opened, and it was Qiao Ruonan who hadn't slept yet and came out.

"Senior Brother Xu, your cultivation is really diligent; you only returned after cultivating until now." Qiao Ruonan spoke suddenly.

This sentence sounded a bit nonsensical to Xu Jin.

Although they were next door, men and women were different, and Xu Jin was focused on cultivation, so there was actually very little communication.

"One more point of strength is one more point of ability to save one's life. This mission earned a lot of silver and pills, and I plan to convert it into strength consumption as soon as possible. Otherwise, if I keep it without using it, it will always be paper wealth.

Converting it into one's own strength is the real capital," Xu Jin said.

"Paper wealth? Convert?"

Qiao Ruonan was thoughtful, nodded lightly, and then suddenly said, "Senior Brother Xu, thank you! Thank you for bringing our team back alive."

This sudden thank you made Xu Jin unable to respond.

"It should be done; I am the squad leader!"

"But you... are different!"

After speaking, Qiao Ruonan said goodnight and went back to her room to rest.

Xu Jin smiled bitterly. Was he different?

If it weren't for the emblem gifted by Ning Yuchan, if it weren't for the Arena nourishment that could enhance the emblem's power, he wouldn't be much better.

Own strength, ah.

Still need to be strong oneself.

Returning to the room, sitting cross-legged, Xu Jin waited for the door to open.

Xu Jin had already calculated that when that man in green came again, he must question him.

Is this man in green... a demon!

It is very clear that the man in green who casually gave away a fourth-tier Dawn Emblem and could come and go freely while the Dao Academy was sealed is very powerful.

His strength might be comparable to the Academy Chief or even stronger than the Academy Chief. Then the question arises, is there a peerless master hidden in the small Jinshan Prefecture City?

This kind of plot is not common, but the demons searched for recently are very mysterious and powerful.

Could the man in green be a demon?

If so?

Xu Jin had already calculated to ask, but it was a pity that after waiting for a quarter of an hour, the door did not open, and the man in green did not appear.

This made Xu Jin mutter, is this man in green really a demon?

Ran away or?

Thinking was thinking, but Xu Jin knew that empty thinking was useless. He swallowed a Spirit-Awakening Pill, strengthened the Clear-Soul Star Pattern for a quarter of an hour, and then tried to engrave the Great Gathering Star Pattern in the Star Lamp for half an hour before falling into a deep sleep.

However, before falling asleep, Xu Jin replaced all the nourished pills under the Star Lamp in the Arena with Spirit-Refreshing Pills.

Xu Jin didn't test the changes that might occur after nourishing the Star-Supplementing Pills for two days, three days, or even five days.

The death of so many Dao Academy disciples stimulated Xu Jin.

Xu Jin now only had one thought: cultivate with all his might, sprint to the fifth layer of Meal of Mist, or even the sixth layer, and then light the stars as soon as possible.

And when sprinting for cultivation, nourishing Spirit-Refreshing Pills has the highest cost-effectiveness. One in the morning and one in the evening can allow Xu Jin to have nearly double the cultivation time of other disciples.

On the 28th, Xu Jin originally thought that if the Dao Academy lifted the internal and external seal, he would leave the city to see his old father, and then find a way to solve his sister's problem and bring Jiang Er back.

It was a pity that the Dao Academy's seal did not stop, but Xu Jin received a new mission.

Xu Jin and three other fellow disciples escorted the coffin of one of the disciples who died in battle back to his hometown.

Must wear the full set of armor of the Star Patrol Guard, and after sending him home, must protect the spirit for three days.

The so-called protecting the spirit is that the four of them stay in this junior fellow disciple's home until the funeral is over.

No need to participate, no need to express anything, just need the four of them to stand there, which is the attitude of the Dao Academy.

It has to be said that the Jinshan Dao Academy has quite a lot of popular support in Jinshan Prefecture, and there is a reason for it.

For any ordinary family, losing a male who has just reached adulthood is an incomparably huge blow, and what follows is more of a blow at the social level.

Various rights and interests among the local villagers will be squeezed or even bullied because there are no young and strong males.

There is even malicious encroachment by village bullies and ruffians.

The Dao Academy's move is also to stand up for these families; even if someone bullies them in the future, they have to weigh it.

Conversely, it is also establishing the reputation of the Dao Academy, and villagers will send more disciples to the Dao Academy to light the stars in the future.

During the three days of protecting the spirit in the home of the junior fellow disciple who died in battle, the four of them were treated as the most distinguished guests.

It is said to be protecting the spirit, but in fact, it is enough to show up for a few hours a day.

Other time can be used for cultivation.

However, during the time of protecting the spirit, Xu Jin heard a lot of news again.

For example, Zhou Du.

Although the Dao Academy did not punish him, in fact, there was a punishment.

No pension, no pension order, and no Dao Academy disciples were sent to protect the spirit.

No pension, no spirit protection, this is actually the greatest punishment.

These three days, Xu Jin still practiced hard without stopping.

Morning class four rounds of Meal of Mist style, forty times of Five-Battle Killing Fist, then a nourished Spirit-Refreshing Pill plus Star-Supplementing Pill, another forty-five times of Five-Battle Killing Fist, body-tempering progress surged by three inches.

Evening class four rounds of Drinking-Brilliance style, forty times of Five-Battle Killing Fist, then a nourished Spirit-Refreshing Pill plus ordinary Star-Supplementing Pill, plus introducing two threads of second-tier starlight on the Arena into the body for cultivation, nearly one hundred and twenty times of Five-Battle Killing Fist, body-tempering progress surged by over five inches.

Then a Spirit-Awakening Pill, continued to strengthen the Clear-Soul Star Pattern for a quarter of an hour, and engraved the Great Gathering Star Pattern again.

Other times, even when standing there while protecting the spirit, he was either practicing martial arts in the Star Lamp or trying to engrave the Great Gathering Star Pattern in the Star Lamp.

On the last night of protecting the spirit, when the eightieth time of the Five-Battle Killing Fist was halfway through, Xu Jin kicked out, and a sense of transparency emerged inexplicably. A Star Arrow flew out from the tip of his right foot, and after flying four feet, it dissipated.

One layer, leaving the body for one foot.

Meal of Mist fourth layer, Star Arrow can leave the body for four feet.

June 30th, Xu Jin broke through to the fourth layer of Meal of Mist.

It was only five days since breaking through to the third layer of Meal of Mist!

Cultivation broke through again, and Xu Jin was also incomparably happy. He immediately continued to perform the Five-Battle Killing Fist, his heart and mind were more clear, and at the same time, the effect of spending a lot of time practicing martial arts in the Star Lamp these three days also appeared.

Suddenly, Xu Jin stopped.

His shoulders shook, and a Star Shield quickly appeared on his shoulder.

His chest shook, and a Star Shield also appeared immediately.

Abdomen, back, knees, calves, thighs, wherever his heart and mind reached, the Star Shield appeared.

Xu Jin was overjoyed!

Instant casting!

The Five-Battle Killing Fist East and Yin-Yang style, cultivated to great perfection, the basic Star Art Star Shield instant casting achieved!
