Ji Tianyou raised an eyebrow as he watched Lin Yue's cultivation settle at the peak of the Body Refinement Realm.
Her progress had been much faster than he expected.
Lin Yue slowly opened her eyes and looked at her hands.
"Young Master..." she said quietly.
Ji Tianyou walked over.
"How do you feel?"
Lin Yue looked down at herself.
"My body feels different. There is a strange warmth flowing through me, and I can feel spiritual energy much more clearly than before."
She looked at Ji Tianyou with curiosity.
"Is this because of the flower?"
Ji Tianyou nodded.
"Partly. The flower helped remove the seal on your physique. Your body is now beginning to awaken."
Lin Yue listened carefully.
"So I really can cultivate?"
"Yes," Ji Tianyou replied. "Your cultivation path has only just begun. Your body needs time to adapt to the changes, so don't rush."
Lin Yue nodded.
"Okay, Young Master. I will be careful."
"Good. Go wash up and get some rest. Let your body fully adapt before you continue cultivating."
Lin Yue smiled and nodded.
"Thank you, Young Master."
"Thank you, Young Master!"
Then she quickly left the room with Xiao Qing.
Ji Tianyou touched his cheek for a moment before shaking his head with a small smile.
"That girl..."
Once Lin Yue had left, Ji Tianyou returned his attention to the system.
[Ding! Nine Purple Suns Divine Body detected.]
[Beginning integration.]
A warm golden light appeared around Ji Tianyou.
The energy slowly entered his body and spread through his meridians.
Ji Tianyou sat down and focused on the process.
The Nine Purple Suns Divine Body gradually merged with his body, strengthening his physical foundation and increasing his affinity with spiritual energy.
He could clearly feel the difference.
His body was becoming more compatible with spiritual energy, and his cultivation foundation was becoming stronger.
After a while, the integration process began to stabilize.
Ji Tianyou opened his eyes.
"So this is the Nine Purple Suns Divine Body."
He could already sense its extraordinary potential.
Ji Tianyou took out the cultivation technique from his System Inventory.
The moment he examined it, he was surprised by its quality.
It was a Heaven-Rank cultivation technique known as the Yin-Yang Harmony Art.
Unlike ordinary cultivation techniques, it focused on balancing two different types of spiritual energy within the cultivator's body.
Ji Tianyou carefully read through the technique.
"The Yin-Yang Harmony Art can improve spiritual energy absorption, strengthen the foundation, and help maintain a stable cultivation state."
He continued reading.
The technique could be cultivated normally without using any special method. It was suitable for cultivators with compatible physiques and could greatly improve their cultivation speed.
Ji Tianyou looked at the technique with satisfaction.
"This is much better than the Azure Sky Spirit Art."
The technique was powerful even without its more advanced applications.
It could also be cultivated by Lin Yue after she reached the appropriate stage, which meant that both of them could benefit from it in the future.
Ji Tianyou carefully memorized the cultivation method.
"The technique is complicated, but it shouldn't be a problem with my current understanding."
He sat down on the bed and began studying the first section.
The Yin-Yang Harmony Art explained how to circulate spiritual energy through the meridians while maintaining a perfect balance between the two energies.
Ji Tianyou soon understood why it was classified as a Heaven-Rank technique.
Even the basic circulation method was far more profound than the techniques he had encountered before.
"If I cultivate this properly, my foundation should become much stronger."
He closed his eyes and began following the cultivation method.
Spiritual energy slowly gathered around him.
Ji Tianyou guided it through his meridians according to the Yin-Yang Harmony Art.
His cultivation became increasingly stable as the spiritual energy circulated through his body.
After several cycles, he opened his eyes.
"I'll cultivate this technique from now on."
He then looked toward the door.
Lin Yue had already gone to rest, and Xiao Qing had gone with her.
"I'll teach her more once she has perfectly consolidated her Physique," Ji Tianyou murmured.
Another month passed.
During this time, Ji Tianyou taught Lin Yue the Yin-Yang Harmony Art. Her comprehension was surprisingly fast, and she quickly understood the basic principles of the technique.
That same day, Lin Yue successfully broke through to the First Layer of the Qi Refinement Realm.
Ji Tianyou nodded with satisfaction.
"Her comprehension is impressive. With her physique, cultivating will become much easier for her from now on."
While Lin Yue continued cultivating, Ji Tianyou focused on completing the Jade Body Art.
Fortunately, after awakening the Nine Purple Suns Divine Body, his cultivation talent had improved tremendously. He was able to comprehend the Jade Body Art much faster than before.
After completing the Jade Body Technique to Perfection, Ji Tianyou prepared to begin his Qi Refinement cultivation.
He took out the Nine Petals Sun Flower and carefully consumed its petals one by one.
A powerful energy immediately spread through his body.
Ji Tianyou quickly began circulating the Yin-Yang Harmony Art, guiding the energy through his meridians and slowly refining it into pure spiritual energy.
His Qi Refinement cultivation began advancing rapidly.
First Layer.
Second Layer.
Third Layer.
The energy from the Nine Petals Sun Flower was extremely powerful, but Ji Tianyou remained calm and continued refining it.
Fourth Layer.
Fifth Layer.
His cultivation finally stopped at the Fifth Layer of the Qi Refinement Realm.
Ji Tianyou slowly opened his eyes.
A faint light flashed across them.
He could clearly feel the difference between his current strength and his previous level.
"Now that I can sense and control spiritual energy, it's time to learn some spells and martial arts."
Ji Tianyou stood up and stretched his body.
He had finally entered the Qi Refinement Realm.
From now on, he could begin learning the various techniques that cultivators used in battle.
