Chapter 50

Rong Kaihua's facial tumor had been removed, although his skin had darkened, he remained resolute and was not at all concerned, considering it a trade-off.

Rong Cai suggested returning to the family, but Rong Kaixuan refused, deciding to stay for ten days.

After Rong Yihé and Rong Cai discussed it, they agreed despite Rong Yiyang's opposition.

They all wanted to see what Rong Kaixuan would bring to convince them after the three-month agreement.

The next day, Rong Kaixuan locked himself in the room and continuously made spirit body fighter talismans.

Since the sphere had mutated, he also gained the ability to recover quickly. As long as he continuously absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the sphere, which was once empty, could recondense enough golden, viscous energy within an hour.

Therefore, the speed at which he made spirit body fighter talismans increased several times.

He planned to use ten days to complete the nearly a hundred blank talismans he had.

However, on the second day, as he began to work tirelessly on the talismans again, his spiritual energy suddenly fluctuated strongly, and the spiritual energy absorbed into his yintang began to mutate.

A large amount of spiritual energy was continuously compressed, as if a mysterious force was compressing the spiritual energy, gradually elevating its power.

Rong Kaixuan sat cross-legged on the ground, his breathing long and powerful, each breath seeming to directly reach his yintang. The yintang moved with his breathing, continuously compressing the spiritual energy inside.

Under the immense external force, the spiritual energy began to condense inward.

The sphere at the center of the yintang seemed to sense the change and accelerated the process of absorbing and expelling spiritual energy.

After each absorption and expulsion, the spiritual energy in the yintang became increasingly viscous, almost transforming into a form of special energy.

Of course, this was just a superficial phenomenon. The spiritual energy surrounding the sphere could not be compared in quality to the special energy inside.

After a full hour of change, a "boom" sounded in Rong Kaixuan's mind, the sound making him dizzy.

After a while, Rong Kaixuan opened his eyes, his pupils filled with extreme joy.

Unconsciously, his spiritual energy had been compressed to the extreme, allowing him to absorb more spiritual energy in the same space.

He took a deep breath, and countless light points appeared around him. These light points were transformed from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, continuously flowing into his yintang. He was pleasantly surprised to find that his speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had increased by at least three times.

However, although the speed of absorbing external energy had increased, it still took the same amount of time to fill the sphere with special energy and to have enough ordinary spiritual energy in the yintang.

Furrowing his brow, after a while, Rong Kaixuan finally confirmed two things.

First, he had advanced.

He had advanced from an early-stage Spirit Warrior to a mid-stage Spirit Warrior, a significant leap in his cultivation as a Spirit Practitioner.

Although he did not know how fast others advanced, advancing a rank in over a month was definitely not slower than others.

Scratching his head, he was puzzled.

He had long heard Senior Sister Wang Xiaoxiao say that the cultivation of the Spirit Path was extremely difficult. Each rank's advancement had a bottleneck, and to break through this bottleneck, one had to comprehend the heavens and earth, which was much more difficult than a martial artist's advancement.

However, his advancement this time seemed to be a natural progression, with no sense of a bottleneck.

Could it be that he really had extraordinary talent, even ignoring the bottleneck in cultivation?

However, he also vaguely guessed that this sudden advancement was related to his burst of energy during the life-and-death struggle. Perhaps it was that incredible burst that allowed him to avoid the bottleneck.

Second, his spiritual energy and special energy had undergone significant changes. If the size of his yintang and the sphere had not changed, the power contained in the spiritual energy in the yintang and the special energy in the sphere had increased several times. This increase in strength was almost equal to the increase in his speed of absorbing external spiritual energy.

Taking a long breath, Rong Kaixuan's thoughts raced. He extended a hand and lightly pointed in front of him. In the next moment, a spirit body appeared, and he swiftly sealed it into a blank talisman.

However, after performing this ordinary action, his face showed a look of happiness.

Because this time he had only used one-tenth of the sphere's special energy.

When his cultivation was at the early-stage Spirit Warrior, he needed to use one-third of the sphere's special energy to form a qualified spirit body fighter. Now, using one-tenth of the energy, he could achieve the same effect.

His hands moved in a series of quick points, and all the special energy in the sphere and the ordinary spiritual energy in the yintang were released. In a short while, eleven spirit body fighters stood in a row in front of him.

Rong Kaixuan's eyes sparkled with indescribable joy.

It turned out that the increase in strength after advancing was so obvious.

However, at this moment, he overlooked the difference between himself and ordinary Spirit Practitioners.

An ordinary early-stage Spirit Warrior could only summon one spirit body fighter, but because of his special energy, he could summon three more than a normal early-stage Spirit Warrior.

Therefore, the increase in his strength after advancing was quite terrifying.

Although he was overjoyed, his actions were not slow. With a wave of his hand, eleven blank talismans rose into the air, emitting threads of light that enveloped the spirit bodies.

In an instant, the twelve blank talismans had turned into first-rank special spirit body fighter talismans.

Looking at the talismans that used to take several hours to complete, Rong Kaixuan felt a sense of unreality.

However, he quickly regained his composure and began to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish his consumption.

The special energy in the sphere could make nine spirit body fighters, and the absorbed spiritual energy of heaven and earth could make three. In other words, every hour and a half, he could make twelve first-rank special spirit body fighter talismans.

He slept when he was tired and made talismans when he woke up. By the next morning, he had completed all ninety-six first-rank special spirit body fighter talismans.

He took a deep breath and put the talismans into a box.

Opening the door, he immediately saw the worried look in Rong Cai's eyes.

"Little Master Kaixuan, what were you doing in the room?" Rong Cai asked with a smile. "Can you tell this old servant?"

Rong Kaixuan laughed and said, "Grandpa Cai, what's there to hide?" He raised the box in his hand and said, "I was making spirit body fighter talismans."

"Ah." Rong Cai was relieved. Although he was not a Spirit Practitioner, he could still sense the changes in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to some extent.

During the day, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in Little Master Kaixuan's room was like boiling water, sometimes boiling continuously, making him extremely worried.

Rong Kaixuan shook the box in his hand and said, "Grandpa Cai, I'm going to the Donghua Treasure Hall to sell these things."

Rong Cai was taken aback and hesitated, saying, "Little Master, aren't you keeping some for your own use?"

Rong Kaixuan chuckled and said, "Grandpa Cai, didn't you forget that we still have to stay here for eight more days?"

Rong Cai's eyelids twitched, and he vaguely understood why Little Master had such strong confidence. Could it be that his reliance was the spirit body fighter talismans in his hand?

If Little Master really had twenty to thirty spirit body fighter talismans, what reason would they have to stop him from going out to explore?

Rong Kaixuan took the box and quickly left, heading to the familiar small shop.

This was his fourth visit to this place. The shop assistant immediately ran up to him with a smile, saying, "Young Master Rong, please sit down. I'll go get the steward."

Rong Kaixuan nodded slightly and handed over a spirit coin, saying, "Thank you, brother. This is a small token of my appreciation, for you to buy tea."

The assistant's eyebrows twitched, took the spirit coin, and glanced at the box in Rong Kaixuan's hand, saying, "Young Master is so generous, I appreciate it."

This was a technique Rong Kaixuan had learned from his father. A spirit coin was no longer much to him, and giving it away sometimes produced unexpected results.

A moment later, Ye Jianhao came out and said with a smile, "Brother Rong, we haven't seen each other for two days, and you're already visiting me again." His gaze also fell on the box in Rong Kaixuan's hand, teasing, "What's wrong? Did the talismans I prepared for you have any flaws?"

Although he was well-informed, he could not guess Rong Kaixuan's intentions.

Smiling slightly, Rong Kaixuan said, "Brother Ye, in a few days, I will be returning to the family with my father. Before I leave, I want to sell some more talismans."

"Haha, I see, welcome, welcome," Ye Jianhao laughed. "The more you sell, the happier I am."

He gestured and said, "Let's go inside to talk."

The two entered the private room, and Ye Jianhao had tea served. He said, "Brother, if you urgently need spirit coins, you can ask me for some. I can't promise a lot, but a few thousand spirit coins, I can manage."

Rong Kaixuan was taken aback and asked, "Brother Ye, I don't have any urgent need."

Ye Jianhao looked at him in surprise and said, "If you don't have an urgent need, why are you in such a hurry to sell the talismans?"

Rong Kaixuan was puzzled and said, "I've already finished making the talismans, so of course, I need to sell them."

"Oh, make... what?" Ye Jianhao suddenly stood up, looking at him in surprise, almost disbelievingly, "You've finished making them?"

Rong Kaixuan nodded and said, "Yes." He patted the box beside him and said, "All the talismans are here, please inspect them, Brother."
