Chapter 116: Did It Succeed?

  The force was circulating wildly within Xiaoyan's body, at this moment, Xiaoyan's entire body was surging with energy. His heart felt like a pipe pulsating with water. However, the inner force in Xiaoyan's body could not burst out.

  The Ling Luo Xin Fa was operating at full power, guiding the wildly surging internal energy to slowly flow towards Xia Yan's abdomen. After about half an hour, a circular, whirlpool-like object formed in Xia Yan's abdomen, rapidly rotating.

  Although he couldn't see it directly, Xia Yan could clearly feel the changes happening inside his body, all of which appeared clearly in his mind.

  The strong will enter the preheavenly realm tomorrow, and perhaps the changes that are happening now are a necessary step to take. Xia Yan has never had such an experience before, this is his first time impacting the spiritual master boundary.

  In the world, at every moment, countless postnatal practitioners are impacting the spiritual realm. However, only a very small number of people can truly succeed! This small group of people who successfully impact will then enter the prenatal state, and their identity and status will undergo earth-shaking changes.

  On the Dragon Continent, postnatal strongmen are as numerous as stars in the sky, but prenatal strongmen are rare and precious! Of course, the gap between prenatal and postnatal is also extremely huge and difficult to bridge.

  。

  Xia Yan's face alternated between pale and flushed, while the aura around his body was also constantly changing. At times, even the furniture around him would be shaken by the waves of energy. This was still the result of Xia Yan's strenuous self-control; if he were to burst out in anger, it was likely that the entire room would be destroyed.

  The candlelight on the table flickered constantly, and Xia Yan's shadow under the light fell on a wall.

  "The internal energy is gathering in the abdomen, more and more, this Linggathering Cave, should be the internal energy condensed. However, once the Linggathering Cave is condensed, then the growth afterwards will no longer be internal energy, but spiritual energy! The energy used by the Spiritual Master is spiritual energy! The most extensive spiritual energy in the world!"

  "The Holy Emperor Grandfather once said, when condensing the Ling Gathering Hole, one must not be impatient for quick gains. I am now not feeling anxious, but rather persisting in operating the Spiritual Net Heart Method with internal energy! Of course, I hope to succeed in condensing it at once,"

  In Xia Yan's heart, he was silently thinking these thoughts.

  Cuckoo

  Suddenly, a series of faint sounds kept coming from Xia Yan's abdomen. The sound was like the chirping of a small bird.

  But Xia Yan seemed to have heard nothing, his eyebrows didn't even twitch, and he was completely unmoved by the outside world.

  The blue shirt on his body kept swelling and subsiding!

  "Cuckoo"

  This strange cry gradually became denser and the sweat beads on Xia Yan's forehead completely soaked his clothes in front of him.

  If someone else were present at this moment, they would be shocked to discover that a white mist had begun to emanate from Summer's entire body. The mist rose slowly and swirled around her, enveloping her form.

  "Huh, my internal energy flow seems to have slowed down!" Xia Yan's heart was filled with surprise and his eyelids twitched slightly. "Even the Holy Emperor Grandfather never told me what kind of situation would occur when condensing the Ling Gathering Hole. I don't know if my current state is a prelude to failure or success."

  "Xia Yan's body shook, 'My inner strength'."

  At this moment, a subtle collision occurred in Xia Yan's abdominal internal force!

  A person's inner power of the same sex. In the body, a collision actually occurred! This thing is simply too unbelievable.

  Just like a person's blood, identical blood flowing within the body, how can there be collisions?

  Furrowing his brow, Xia Yan's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

  "This" weighed heavily on Xia Yan's heart, "Should I continue to persevere or give up?"

  The emergence of such a special situation also made Xia Yan hesitate! This internal force collision is not a trivial matter. Just now, the internal force was violent, but there was no collision. Even if it's turbulent, it's impossible to break through the meridians. But now that the internal force has collided, it's hard to say what will happen.

  If by any chance the meridians were broken through, then Xia Yan would be lucky if he didn't die, and all his cultivation would go down the drain.

  In an instant, the original "Gugu" sound also disappeared. The surrounding environment once again returned to a dead silence.

  Xia Yan took a deep breath and said, "Let's persevere! No matter what, now is not the time to give up."

  Decided, Xia Yan once again concentrated all his energy to operate the Ling Luo Heart Method! The inner force was like a thickening **, and the speed of operation became slower and slower. Although Xia Yan continued to increase the driving force, he still couldn't accelerate the flow rate of the inner force.

  At the beginning, the inner force was surging and overflowing, and Xia Yan had to think of a way to slow down the flow rate. Now, however, the inner force is flowing slower and slower, as if it's about to stop at any moment!

  All of this was a first for Xia and others!

  "Now, I finally know the difficulties of breaking through to the Spiritual Master realm! If it weren't for the spiritual liquid that was prepared in advance, I wouldn't have known what kind of predicament I would have encountered!" Xia Yan let out a sigh in his heart and shook his head. "Now, let's work hard."

  Time has passed for two hours!

  "Slap slap"

  A dense, popping sound like stir-frying beans came from Xia Yan's abdomen.

  Inner strength, divided into countless vortexes formed by colliding with the essence of the universe, was shattered in an instant and dissolved into numerous inner strengths.

  At that moment, Xia Yan's spirit almost collapsed as well. The whirlpool that had been maintained for several hours was actually defeated in the blink of an eye, and all his efforts seemed to have turned into foam!

  "It ended in failure"

  At this time, Xia Yan was thinking gloomily.

  But...

  At this moment, Xia Yan felt that there was something extra in his abdomen. This thing was only the size of a thumb but it had never been there before.

  "Huh?" Xia Yan's heart skipped a beat, his face twitching violently. "Impossible..."

  Overjoyed in his heart. Just now still painful and disappointed, but now suddenly delighted. Xia Yan hastily examined it and found that this thumb-sized thing was spinning around like a dan medicine. Moreover, what was most shocking was that this small thing was continuously absorbing and releasing strands of energy.

  Every meridian in the body is connected with this little thing.

  Feeling this change, Xia Yan was suddenly so shocked that he was completely stunned.

  "Could it be..."

  Xia Yan slowly opened his eyes, "Could this be the Ling Shi's realm that only strong practitioners possess - the Spirit Gathering Cave?"

  Although it is still internal energy in the body now, Xia Yan feels that after entering that small circular thing, the internal energy has changed. Once released, it becomes a completely different kind of power!

  However, the speed of this energy conversion is extremely slow. At this rate, it's unlikely that Xia Yan's internal power can be fully converted into spiritual power even in a year.

  Xia Yan stood up and got out of bed. His entire body's clothes were completely soaked through.

  The light emitted by the lamp on the table has restored its original calmness.

  After changing into a dry and comfortable set of clothes, Xia Yan walked out into the courtyard.

  At this time, the sky was already whitish. The cool breeze blew, blowing Xiaoyan's hair open. Since entering autumn, the weather has been cooler day by day.

  "I didn't expect the night to pass so quickly." Xia Yan shook his head, his eyes sparkling. "Even Saint Emperor Grandfather doesn't come out to talk to me now, and I still don't know if I've reached the Xiantian stage or not."

  As for the changes in his body, Xia Yan still didn't dare to confirm.

  If it is said that he has already entered the Pre-Heaven, then Xia Yan's current strength compared to before hasn't changed much. But if it is said that he hasn't entered the Pre-Heaven, then how can the obvious changes in his body be explained?

  With a flip of his palm, Xia Yan slowly slapped out a palm, and from the center of his palm, a stream of internal energy that was invisible to the naked eye but could be felt was released.

  "Only"

  The internal force burst out into the air and surged towards the direction of the distant gate!

  "Boom"

  A loud crash, the courtyard gate was directly blasted off by the inner force and flew out, and after falling to the ground, it still made a sharp scraping sound.

  A speck of dust. All flew up.

  Of course, ordinary people in such light are completely invisible.

  Xia Yan was shocked by the scene in front of him. He took a fright. Xia Yan was very certain that the internal force he had just used was indeed the accumulation of his internal strength over time, and not spiritual power. However, this internal force seemed to be much more powerful than before. Moreover, using Ren Li's external method now was also much easier than before.

  Just a casual slap can blast the gate open, and if someone is standing in front, they might even fly out. The force of this impact is enough to weigh over a thousand catties!

  Her eyes sparkled as Xia Yan looked at Bai Zhe's palm.

  "Xiaoyan's brother, what happened?"

  Xiao Qing was wearing her pajamas. With sleepy eyes, she ran out of the room with bare feet. After seeing Xia Yan, she asked in surprise.

  Xia Yan turned around awkwardly and smiled, rubbing his forehead, then said to Xiao Qing: "Just now I was practicing the martial skill I just grasped, and accidentally bumped into the door. It's okay, Xiao Qing, you go back to sleep!"

  Xiao Qing looked at the courtyard gate. The cool breeze outside blew and she was completely awake, her face full of strange expressions as she stared at Xia Yan.

  "Hey, Brother Xia Yan. Really nothing's wrong? Xiao Qing pointed at the door and said: 'Our courtyard gate, where did it all go?!'"

  He opened his mouth slightly, with an astonished expression.

  "Hehe, this courtyard gate hasn't been repaired for a long time and is all broken. One touch and it will fall off. Alright, Xia Qing, hurry back to your room, don't catch a cold." Xia Yan's eyebrows jumped up and down as he said with a smile.

  "It's fortunate that this courtyard is relatively secluded, otherwise the noise just now would have definitely attracted someone's attention and they would have come over to ask questions. And then I'd have had to waste my breath explaining." Xia Yan thought to himself.

  Her gaze shifted. Xia Yan's ears perked up, and she hadn't heard any footsteps, so she let out a sigh of relief. Xia Yan's separate courtyard was an abandoned yard, which was desolate to begin with.

  Her bright and shiny eyes blinked a few times, and after carefully making sure everything was okay, she said in a clear voice: "Well, Brother Xia Yan, I'll head back to my room first. After I get cleaned up, I'll make breakfast for you."

  Xia Yan looked at the lovely little green peak and nodded slightly!
