"You've been a homebody for five days, rewarded with a box of Great Profound Pills."
Here it comes!
The Great Profound Pill is both a pill for breaking through the Profound Gate and a pill required for cultivation in the Profound Realm.
The system is generous, directly rewarding a box, rather than a single pill or a small bottle, which would be stingy.
Chu Xuan took out a bottle of pills, poured one out, and sat cross-legged in the room, putting the pill in his mouth to break through to the Profound Realm.
The pill dissolved as soon as it entered his mouth. He felt a loud boom, and sensed that his body was undergoing some kind of transformation, making him feel light and airy.
The spiritual energy in his body was also being compressed, with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth continuously surging in, gradually becoming substantial and emitting a faint glow.
The spiritual energy was also transforming, being refined into spiritual power.
One hundred units of spiritual energy could be refined into one unit of spiritual power, directly increasing the power he wielded by a hundred times.
The greater transformation, however, was in the willpower.
The Profound Gate, the greatest barrier, is not the transformation of the physical body or the spiritual energy, but the transformation of the willpower.
This step of transformation is the core.
It is also the greatest barrier to breaking through to the Profound Realm.
Chu Xuan felt that there seemed to be a lock in his willpower, and when the lock shattered, a door appeared.
The tightly closed door now showed some looseness.
As long as he pushed open this door, he would enter a new world.
The true barrier of the Profound Gate!
Chu Xuan knew that as long as he pushed open this door, his willpower would complete its sublimation, allowing him to perceive the world outside his body and understand the mysteries of the world.
This door is the door of profundity.
Pushing open the door of profundity, entering a new world.
This door is both the chasm and the test between the mundane and the profound.
Without breaking through the Profound Gate, one remains an ordinary mortal, ultimately just a handful of dust.
The peak lifespan of the mundane realm does not exceed 150 years.
But once one enters the Profound Realm, the lifespan extends to 500 years, and those who cultivate special techniques can even live for 800 years.
Chu Xuan was striking this door. Each strike caused his willpower to sublimate, and the gap in the door widened a bit more.
After nine consecutive strikes, accompanied by a loud boom, the door collapsed, and in an instant, Chu Xuan felt himself enter a new world.
His willpower was sublimating, undergoing some kind of transformation.
At one moment, he saw himself sitting cross-legged, saw everything in the room, and even saw the ants crawling on the ground in the yard.
The world became clearer at that moment.
He could even perceive the fluctuations of spiritual energy in the world.
The Profound Realm is achieved!
With his eyes closed, he could see everything around him, even more clearly than before breaking through.
Willpower perception!
This is a capability gained after breaking through to the Profound Realm.
The willpower can perceive outside the body, and the stronger one is, the farther the willpower can perceive.
Chu Xuan took another Great Profound Pill to consolidate his cultivation after breaking through.
"You've broken through by being a homebody, rewarded with the Hypnotic Technique!"
The system's voice sounded, and Chu Xuan was delighted. Breaking through also has rewards, which is great.
He wondered if there would be a reward every time he broke through.
After receiving the Hypnotic Technique, a small gray book appeared. Chu Xuan opened the book, and a series of profound characters jumped out of the book and entered his eyes.
A series of profound insights appeared in his mind. After half an hour, Chu Xuan had already mastered the Hypnotic Technique.
This is a type of secret technique that can confuse the willpower, disrupt the willpower, and even disrupt the soul.
At the same time, cultivating the Hypnotic Technique also enhances the willpower and soul.
The soul is still far from Chu Xuan. To凝聚神魂 is not easy; it requires another sublimation and transformation of the willpower to form the soul.
While consolidating his realm, Chu Xuan also practiced the Hypnotic Technique. Since he had already grasped it, the practice went smoothly, and it took him just over an hour to reach a basic level.
After finishing his practice, Chu Xuan went to the yard and performed the Dragon Python Spirit Fist again.
The power of the Dragon Python Spirit Fist after breaking through to the Profound Realm was incomparable to before.
With one punch, spiritual power surged, transforming into a gray giant python that swiftly attacked.
Chu Xuan continued to punch, and the gray giant python either bit, pounced, or struck, swift and agile.
After practicing the Dragon Python Spirit Fist, Chu Xuan tried the Hypnotic Technique, and an invisible wave rippled out.
The Hypnotic Technique directly attacks the willpower, making people fall into a trance and even allowing the user to control the hypnotized person according to their will.
Using the Hypnotic Technique consumes willpower. Even without comparing himself to other Profound Realm cultivators, Chu Xuan felt that his willpower was much stronger than that of other first-stage Profound Realm cultivators.
He wondered if the system would reward him with pills or spiritual items to enhance his willpower.
If there were cultivation techniques to enhance willpower, that would be even better.
Cultivation techniques for enhancing willpower are extremely rare and scarce.
Even the Chu family, one of the three major families in the Qin Kingdom, only has a lower-grade Profound Scripture for willpower cultivation.
Despite this, the Chu family has maintained its position in the Qin Kingdom thanks to this technique.
This technique is a core technique of the Chu family. Chu Xuan, who was only at the Vein Opening stage of the mundane realm, had not seen this technique even as a direct descendant.
After breaking through to the Profound Realm, Chu Xuan needed a cultivation technique. The Indestructible Body Technique was no longer necessary after reaching the Profound Realm.
The Chu family's cultivation technique only covers the mundane realm to the first stage of the Profound Realm. Each descendant of the Chu family can only receive the subsequent technique after breaking through to the Profound Realm.
Chu Xuan did not plan to continue cultivating the Chu family's technique; he was waiting for the system's technique reward.
The Chu family, one of the three major families in the Qin Kingdom, seems incredibly powerful, but in the Southern Province, it is relatively ordinary.
The cultivation technique of the direct descendants of the Chu family is only a high-grade Profound Scripture.
Cultivation techniques below the Void Realm are called Profound Scriptures, divided into high, medium, and low grades.
After the Void Realm, there are the Fusion Realm, True Realm, and Imperial Realm.
Cultivation techniques up to the True Realm are called True Scriptures, which have strength differences but no specific grades.
Above True Scriptures are Imperial Scriptures.
Chu Xuan felt that the minimum requirement should be to cultivate an Imperial Scripture.
After only a few days of being a homebody, he did not expect to receive higher-level techniques for now.
There is a rumor among the direct descendants of the Chu family that Chu Tianming has half a True Scripture. The ultimate goal of all direct descendants is to have the opportunity to cultivate this half True Scripture.
In the entire Chu family, only a handful of people have cultivated this half True Scripture, and they are the true core of the Chu family.
Chu Xuan currently looks down on this half True Scripture. With only half, it can probably only cultivate up to the Fusion Realm.
Lying on a reclining chair, Chu Xuan continued reading. Although he had just broken through, his realm was quite stable.
To be a homebody for a long time, one's mindset must be stable.
Therefore, Chu Xuan decided to read more books, both to pass the time and to gain more knowledge.
The Chu family, being a powerful family, has a vast collection of books. Reading all the books should increase his understanding of the world.
Currently, Chu Xuan only knows the Qin Kingdom well, and knows very little about the Southern Province, let alone beyond the Southern Province.
Many of the books in the Chu family's collection cannot be brought over by servants, so when Chu Yun comes again, he must ask her to help copy the numerous books in the Chu family's collection.
While reading, he suddenly perceived with his willpower that a servant was bringing a lunch box to the yard.
