Chapter 4 Innate Boundary
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed and Chu Yi was still in the process of impacting the First Heaven Boundary. The area around him was piled up with nearly two hundred fire spirit crystals that had been drained of their spiritual energy. At this moment, the two fire spirit crystals he held in his hand were his last remaining stock.
"One yuan is the beginning, two yuan then combine, three yuan combine into the way..."
The massive amount of spiritual energy stored within his body, under the urging of Chu Yi, was like a flood bursting through the dam, frantically surging from his dantian to his limbs and meridians. The robustness of his meridians, tempered over three years, bore the brunt of this astonishing explosion of spiritual energy with an elasticity far surpassing that of ordinary people.
"Qu Bone... Tong... Guan Yuan, Zhong Ji, Guan Yuan, Shi Men, Qi Hai, Yin Jiao, Shen Qu, Shui Fen... Cheng Jiang Tong, Ren Mai Jin Tong... Ming Men, Yang Guan, Xuan Shu, Zhi Yang, Ling Tai, Shen Dao, Bai Hui, Shang Xing, Shen Ting... Tong, Du Mai Jin Tong..."
A burst of "crackling" sounds like stir-frying beans came out, and Chu Yi was covered in sweat as if he had just been pulled out of the water, and a faint smell of stench wafted out.
This is the benefit of breaking through innate with acquired, washing tendons and marrow, detoxifying and purifying internally, restoring Chu Y's body damaged in the postnatal environment to its original state, returning it to its original state at birth.
When the two regulatory vessels are open, then the eight extraordinary vessels are open. When the eight extraordinary vessels are open, then all the vessels are open. Reaching this state, one can transcend from the post-heaven to the pre-heaven, increasing one's lifespan by fifty years. In the Xuan Yuan star, those who reach this state number no less than a million.
After three years of arduous cultivation, Chu Yi had barely managed to enter the ranks of those who cultivate the truth.
"Shh..."
With a long sigh, Chu Yu slowly opened his eyes. Although he was in the dark mine where he had been for nearly four years, everything before him still made him reveal an expression of joy that he could not help but show.
Perceiving the thin heavenly energy around his body, Chu Yi spread out his palm and gazed at it for a moment. He silently activated the only offensive spell decision among the "Three Elemental Blazing Decisions", a spell that could only be cast after reaching the Pre-Heavenly realm - the Flame Palm.
At the moment of Fa's rotation, Chu Yi keenly felt that the heavenly and earthly spiritual energy in the surrounding space was slowly being absorbed and transformed by himself, and a flickering fiery red flame suddenly appeared in his palm.
"It succeeded!"
"I succeeded, Innate Boundary, haha, I'm a Cultivator now..."
The successful casting of the Blazing Palm made Chu Yu truly feel the power of the Innate Realm, and the thrill of gaining the strength of a powerful person after experiencing several hardships made Chu Yu, who had not smiled for a long time, make up for more than half of the laughter he owed over the years.
After the excitement, Chu Yi couldn't help but secretly sigh "good luck" as he looked at the discarded low-grade fire spirit crystals on the ground. Fortunately, he had accumulated enough spiritual energy to impact the hundred meridians in the last moment, otherwise, even if he was short of one fire spirit crystal's worth of spiritual energy, he would have probably ended up with a disappointing outcome.
"After the bottleneck, I must prepare a sufficient amount of spirit stones..." Chu Yi secretly decided in her heart.
"The Innate Boundary has increased my strength by at least tenfold, a transcendent leap that also marks a new starting point. After waiting for three years, it's time to explore the unknown region. My first pot of gold as a Cultivator will have to rely on this..."
Chu Yi pondered for a moment, then his figure swiftly entered the depths of the mine like the wind. The complex and rugged mine tunnels, which resembled spider webs, were as familiar to him as his own home, and he darted through them with almost no pause.
After three and a half years of living in the mine, Chu Yi firmly believed that no one knew this hundred-mile mine better than himself.
About two hours later, Chu Yi finally slowed down his urgent pace and stopped in front of a narrow cave entrance that could only accommodate one person.
This place is already at the edge of this vein, and few people come. In fact, as early as several years ago, this place was not even connected. The entrance to "that area" in front of Chu Yu appeared after a violent earthquake nine years ago.
That is to say, even the people of the Supreme Mysterious Yang Sect who are in charge of this hundred-mile mine vein do not know that it exists.
If it weren't for Chu Yi preparing a sufficient amount of spiritual stones for his future cultivation, he wouldn't have been able to find this place. Chu Yi could even assert that among the miners working in the mine, no more than ten people knew of the existence of this area.
As early as the first time he came here, according to his precise analysis of the terrain and mineral deposits, Chuyi determined that behind this narrow cave entrance was a vast amount of high-quality spiritual stone, which even the most productive rich mineral area he had discovered after exploring hundreds of miles of veins could not compare with.
At that time, this discovery naturally made Chu Yi ecstatic, and he rushed into the mine alone, and his life was almost lost in this dark cave.
Recalling the perilous encounter three and a half years ago, Chu Yi still felt some lingering fear. That time, he didn't even manage to exit the narrow cave, and was forced to retreat halfway due to the lethal threat.
Looking at the deep cave entrance in front of him, Chu Yi didn't hesitate at all, took a deep breath, and bowed his head to flash into it.
As soon as I entered the cave, the temperature around me plummeted, and a chill ran down my spine. A strong gust of wind blew in, carrying with it a faint scent of blood that only added to the terror.
The current situation is different from the past, Chu Yi's speed of advancing forward is very fast, and he soon exceeded the depth of his previous exploration. As he went deeper, the originally narrow space gradually became more spacious, but Chu Yi, who was always on guard against that "thing" suddenly appearing, did not discover anything.
They had been walking for half a moment, and at Chu Yi's current speed, they were at least three miles away. As an extension of the mine vein, this cave was incredibly deep, and so far, not even a single fork in the road had appeared. The only change was that the space was getting bigger and bigger. Meanwhile, Chu Yi carefully noticed that there were some holes of varying sizes on the surrounding rock walls.
Suddenly, a hissing sound entered Chu Yi's ears, causing him to stop in his tracks. In the dimly lit cave ahead, a snake head as large as a meter in diameter emerged from the depths, its two bronze-like eyes staring fixedly at Chu Yi like two giant lanterns. The half-meter-long snake tongue darted in and out, assuming an attitude of selecting its next victim to devour.
"Sure enough, I met that 'thing', the only difference being that the one I encountered at first was far inferior to this big guy in front of me. Although it could also be considered a giant python-level fierce beast, compared to this big guy, it's probably not even a third of its size..."
As Chu Yi recalled the near-death experience, his gaze focused on the forehead of the giant snake blocking his way, where a crimson-colored horn the size of a basketball grew from its center, making it fundamentally different from the common concept of "snake".
"Fierce horned python, fond of dark and spiritual places, often lurking underground for years, feeding on spiritual stones, can grow up to 100 meters in length at maturity, possessing the most basic spiritual intelligence, a ferocious beast..."
