"Phew~"
"My little Bai, I didn't dote on you for nothing."
Xu Changge reached out and continuously rubbed Su Bai's little face, molding her soft cheeks into various shapes.
Su Bai reached out, gripping the bottle containing the Medicinal Pill, her eyes devoid of any emotion, and spoke coldly: "If you continue to rub my face like this, then I won't give you this bottle of Medicinal Pill."
Su Bai's voice was very clear, and the act of rubbing her face made her protest strongly.
Xu Changge really wanted to say, I just want to rub it!
A face this cute is meant for me to rub!
However, this Medicinal Pill was indeed needed.
She reluctantly withdrew her hand.
The feel of Su Bai's face made her somewhat linger.
"This time's closed-door Breakthrough will probably take a long time, little Bai, you also need to Cultivate diligently."
Xu Changge didn't know how long her Core Formation would take; it could be five or six years, or even ten years.
She came here this time to see Su Bai before entering closed-door Cultivation.
"Sister will accept this Medicinal Pill, hehe, next time we meet, Sister will be a Core Formation Cultivator."
"Little Bai still needs to work hard."
Xu Changge took the Two-pattern Ziwei Spirit-Guiding Pill into her hand and then reached out to pat Su Bai's head again.
However, this time Su Bai dodged.
After they played and joked for a while, Xu Changge left.
"She's actually going to Core Formation already…?"
Once she reached Core Formation, Xu Changge would truly be considered a top-tier combatant in Xingluo Market.
"Cultivation is not something that can be rushed."
Xu Changge went into closed-door Cultivation, which made no difference to Su Bai.
She usually researched new Cultivation Techniques in her Danfu Pavilion.
Every other day, she would visit Han Xue to see if her Physique had deduced anything new from the Cultivation Technique.
Perhaps it was because the 'Three Meridians Seven Chakras' Cultivation method was modified based on Martial Dao.
So its potential was limited.
In short, the subsequent Meridians changes were all within Su Bai's deductions.
Five years passed just like that.
Lu Hong spent ten years on Ebony Island and finally completed her Cultivation of the Medicine King Canon.
After finishing her Cultivation, Lu Hong could continue to take the Twin Lotus to comprehend Cultivation Techniques, which also helped her Alchemy.
Lu Hong had accumulated quite a bit of Spirit Qi liquid now, and after returning from Ebony Island, she Cultivated even harder every day, preparing to attempt a Breakthrough to Late-Stage Foundation Establishment.
And Su Bai had used the attribute points from these five years to increase Creation Essence to forty points.
Now her attributes were fully developed.
[Divine Soul: 40 Physique: 42 Mana: 40 Creation Essence: 40]
Looking at her attribute panel, Su Bai stroked her smooth chin, feeling a bit emotional.
"Unknowingly, I'm already one hundred and sixty-two years old?"
I'm old.
While feeling emotional, Su Bai looked up towards Xingluo Mountain.
Xu Changge had been in closed-door Cultivation for five years; if there were no accidents, she would soon begin Core Formation.
Although Su Bai couldn't undergo Core Formation now.
She wasn't without progress either.
At the very least, 'Three Meridians Seven Chakras' had now opened six Wheels.
And her 'Heavenly Calamity Illusionary Thunder Body Tempering Method', which she had always diligently Cultivated, was also about to Breakthrough to the third stage.
Yes, Su Bai was about to reach the third Realm of Body Refining.
Once she reached the third Body Refining Realm and Awakened a Physical Body Divine Ability, she would be able to fight against Core Formation Cultivators.
Even some Cultivators who had been in Core Formation for many years might not be Su Bai's opponents.
Because at that time, her body would definitely have the 'Seven Chakras' bonus, further strengthened by attribute points.
The power of a single punch would be enough to shatter the distant Seven Stars Mountain!
Moreover, 'Three Meridians Seven Chakras' would also grant Su Bai a Divine Ability.
Once she reached Core Formation, she would possess both Qi and Blood Martial Dao Divine Ability and Body Refining Divine Ability, and later she could also have a Lifebound Treasure.
For ordinary people, Su Bai could probably stand there and let them attack her, and it wouldn't pose a threat.
Just thinking about it.
Su Bai felt incredibly strong!
"No, I'm not very strong, I'm super strong!"
"Bai, mighty! Invincible!!"
Now Su Bai planned to wait for Xu Changge to complete Core Formation first.
She wanted to see what would happen when Xu Changge underwent Core Formation.
Core Formation would definitely absorb a large amount of Spirit Qi.
As for how big the commotion would be, she didn't know yet.
Su Bai wanted to prepare herself based on the situation when Xu Changge underwent Core Formation.
If the commotion of Core Formation was too great.
She wouldn't Breakthrough to the third Body Refining Realm here.
Instead, she would look for another place.
Ebony Island was the best choice.
Although the Spiritual Vein there was only second-tier.
The grade was a bit low, but combined with the Mid-Grade Spirit Stones she had collected over the years, and the thousand year Azure Cloud Thunder Bamboo she had cultivated, plus the thousand year warm jade bed, it would be enough!
The thousand year Azure Cloud Thunder Bamboo and thousand year warm jade bed were the most precious items in her possession.
And because Su Bai would not use them openly, they were cultivated to be a thousand years old.
No one knew that Su Bai's Body Refining Realm was so high.
This was something Su Bai had always hidden.
Even Xu Changge couldn't guess that Su Bai's Body Refining Realm was this high.
Xu Changge knew that Su Bai also Cultivated Body Refining.
But Body Refining consumed too many resources.
Xu Changge thought that Su Bai would stop investing resources after reaching the second Body Refining Realm due to the consumption.
How could she know that such a Heaven-Defying thing as Creation Essence existed?
Su Bai had never worried about Body Refining resources!
During these five years, there had been few reports from the Secret Realm.
The exploration progress seemed to be stuck.
The entire immortal mountain was enveloped by the Secret Realm.
They could only advance a very short distance each day.
Moreover, although the Blood Sea Old Man had died a thousand years ago, his lingering power was still present in the records of Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.
They dared not act rashly.
But even with such cautious exploration, there were still frequent deaths of Cultivators in the fleet.
Some would suddenly fall into a highly poisonous swamp and be digested until only a pile of white bones remained.
Others would be struck by a strange poison and die on the spot.
Furthermore, on this immortal island Secret Realm, there was also a special Yao Beast ethnic group that had been continuously reproducing.
They blended into the mist, occasionally coming out to launch sneak attacks.
And if Cultivators wanted to eliminate them, they had to disperse the nearby mist along with the Yao Beasts.
Although these special Yao Beasts were difficult to deal with.
There were also pleasant surprises.
After killing them, they would drop special Yao Cores.
The Yao Cores were overall grayish-white.
Holding them in hand could reduce distracting thoughts, making them suitable for Cultivation.
Of course, during these five years, although the fleet's exploration was slow, the gains were still considerable.
After all, this Secret Realm had been sealed for a long time.
The abundance of Spirit Medicine within was dazzling.
Various rare thousand-year Spirit Medicines were countless here.
Every day, people were ambushed by their peers.
Although the fleet had already prohibited private duels among Cultivators.
There were not a few people driven by greed.
Once inside the Secret Realm's mist, no matter who you were, if you were about a thousand meters away, you might not even hear the sound of a fight.
In such a situation, how could anyone not harbor ill intentions?
The Cultivators only maintained a good facade, but secretly they were already killing each other with bloodshot eyes.
Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion and the Six Sects organizations did not interfere with this situation.
They didn't have many people.
And their main objective wasn't here.
Yu Feng was currently listening to Zhang Tianhai's report.
"Lord Yu, after these years of exploration, we have found the central location of the Secret Realm, and the main tomb is probably there as well."
Hearing this news, Yu Feng nodded, then stretched his body; it was time for him to act.
Similar things were happening on the other ships.
Just as these Core Formation Cultivators were preparing to make their move.
In the mist, an unknown number of Cultivators lay on the ground.
These were Loose Cultivators who had been killed for failing to seize Spirit Medicine.
However, these Cultivators were emaciated, as if only empty shells remained.
If one observed carefully, they would find fine branches embedded in their bodies, absorbing the essence of these Loose Cultivators' flesh and blood.
