Chu Jun sat cross-legged beneath a stalk of Village Spirit Wood and silently activated the first layer of the Five Thunder Heavenly Art. He continuously absorbed the pitifully thin Spiritual Qi that was floating in the air and gathered at his dantian to form a Spiritual Qi Cycle. This was what was commonly called Spirit Refining. Immortal cultivators at the Spirit Refining Stage were unable to expel objects. They could only rely on the spiritual energy in their dantian to increase their body's sensitivity and physical attack power. However, they were also stronger than body cultivators.
When the spiritual energy in a xiuzhe's dantian accumulated to a certain extent, it would liquefy and form a spiritual sea in the dantian. At this point, spiritual energy was generated. This stage was called Harmonious Spirit. When a cultivator reached the Harmonious Spirit realm, they could release spiritual energy to expel objects.
Ever since he cultivated the Five Thunder Heavenly Arts, Only then did Chu Jun truly realize the wonders of the Cold Moon Art and the Blazing Sun Art. These two cultivation methods were obviously different from the cultivation methods of the cultivation world. They absorbed the essence of the sun and moonlight, and did not rely on spiritual energy. Furthermore, the location where they were stored was extremely strange. They were actually at the bottom of their feet. More importantly, they cultivated quickly. Once they reached the first layer, they formed "divine power" that could be used to expel objects. Compared to the Five Thunder Heavenly Arts, their advantages were extremely obvious.
It was almost two months since he was injured last time. Chu Jun 's body had also fully recovered. He had been cultivating the Five Thunder Heavenly Arts for the past two months, but his progress was not ideal. It was simply incomparable to the speed of cultivating the Blazing Sun Arts and the Frost Moon Arts. After two months of hard cultivation, only a thin layer of spiritual energy had accumulated in his dantian.
Chu Jun was extremely dissatisfied with his progress in cultivating the Five Thunder Righteous Heavenly Art, but he didn't know that by absorbing the spiritual energy in the air alone, it was already quite formidable for him to reach this level in two months. One had to know that Zhao Yu had cultivated the Five Thunder Righteous Heavenly Art since he was ten years old, and it had taken him more than six years to reach the middle Harmonious Spirit realm.
Chu Jun had only cultivated for two months before accumulating a thin layer of spiritual energy. Furthermore, he had not used the beast cores of the spirit beasts to cultivate. At this speed, even Shangguan Yu, who was acknowledged to be the most talented cultivator in the sect, would have to be willing to lose. Logically speaking, Chu Jun's spiritual roots were ranked below Shangguan Yu and Zhao Yu. The speed of cultivation shouldn't be as fast as theirs, However, Chu Jun had also cultivated the Cold Moon Technique and the Blazing Sun Technique. These two miraculous techniques were constantly modifying Chu Jun's physique, as well as his spiritual roots. If Chu Jun were to try his spiritual roots again, the rank of the spiritual roots he had measured would probably have already reached the third grade, and it was slowly increasing.
When Chu Jun opened his eyes, the sun was already shining. It was clearly noon. Chu Jun stood up and lazily moved a few times. He thought to himself, "Inner sect disciples are just happy. They don't need to work. They still have 200 spirit beans to feed each month. All they need to do is cultivate peacefully!"
With a flash of light, a flying sword appeared in Chu Jun's hand. With a spit of Crescent Moon divine power, the flying sword flew out in the air with a sizzling sound, circling around the Tunling Wood before returning to his hand. After practicing for this period of time, Chu Jun was already able to control the flying sword to make simple hacking and assassination movements within five meters. If it exceeded five meters, it would be difficult to control it.
Just as Chu Jun was about to awaken from his training, the light-shadow woman suddenly came out and floated in the air like a ghost, coldly staring at Chu Jun. Although her entire body was covered in a layer of gentle light, Chu Jun could still feel that her gaze at this moment was very unfriendly.
" Chu Jun , are you really not planning to continue cultivating?" The woman said coldly.
Ever since the last time he tried it, Chu Jun didn't dare to cultivate the Blazing Sun Art. That kind of feeling was truly unbearable. For the past two months, Chu Jun had been cultivating the Five Thunder Heavenly Arts, and the Light Shadow Girl had never urged him. She had never expected that she would suddenly appear today.
"Didn't you say that you don't want to practice?" Chu Jun prevaricated.
As soon as he said that, the surrounding temperature quickly dropped. The light-shadow woman's eyes were clearly also turning gloomy. Chu Jun felt that his back was cold. He said coldly, "You said it yourself!"
"Alright, since you don't practice, then I'll kill you!" The woman's voice was emotionless, as if she was saying that I wanted something unimportant.
Chu Jun 's heart went cold as he angrily said, "You are unreasonable. I will not argue with you even if you occupy my Divine Sea. Now, I will repay you for your kindness!"
The woman sneered and said, "I like to repay kindness with vengeance. If you have the ability, come and slap me in the face!"
Chu Jun was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Making trouble for no reason!"
Zi!
The woman raised her right hand and a light sword formed out of thin air. The tip of the sword pressed against Chu Jun's throat. Chu Jun only felt a bone-chilling chill coming from the tip of the sword. His entire body seemed to be frozen, and even his internal organs were so cold that he felt pain.
"Let me ask you one more time. Do you want to practice or not?" The woman said coldly. As long as her hand moved forward slightly, Chu Jun would immediately leave his head.
Chu Jun 's stubborn strength came up, he glared angrily at the light-shadow woman, tightly pursing his lips in silence. The woman said coldly, "Believe it or not, I'll stab you blind before cutting off your tongue!"
Chu Jun said coldly, "The more you force me, the more I refuse to practice. If you have the ability, kill me!"
The woman raised her wrist and pointed the tip of her sword at Chu Jun's left eye. Chu Jun glared at the blurry face shrouded in light without fear. The woman's hand was about to pierce Chu Jun's left eye when a knock came from outside the courtyard.
" Chu Jun !" Zhao Yu's warm and pleasant voice came in.
Zhao Yu hadn't come back since the last time he took the medicine. Chu Jun thought that she was angry with him and had been depressed for a long time. Now that he suddenly heard her voice, he couldn't help but be delighted. Just as he was about to reply, he suddenly woke up the shadowy woman in front of him and immediately stopped talking.
"Since you're not afraid of death, then I'll kill Zhao Yu!" The woman snorted coldly.
Chu Jun 's expression immediately changed as he cursed, "She has no grudges with you. Why did you kill her?"
"If you want me to let her go, you can. As long as you continue to obediently cultivate the Blazing Sun Art!" The woman said indifferently.
Chu Jun said angrily, "You're abnormal!"
The woman floated towards the courtyard gate without a word. Chu Jun couldn't help but be shocked. This eccentric woman's cultivation was extraordinarily formidable. Killing Zhao Yu would probably be as easy as turning her palm. She hurriedly shouted, "Come back, I promise you!"
The woman turned around and floated back. "You'd better keep your word!" She said coldly. As he spoke, he turned into a wisp of white light and drilled back into the space between Chu Jun 's eyebrows.
Chu Jun secretly heaved a sigh of relief. This strange woman really wanted to die. He had to think of a way to get rid of her, but with his current cultivation, how could it be easy?
" Chu Jun , isn't he here?" Zhao Yu knocked on the door again.
Chu Jun hurriedly ran over and opened the courtyard door. Zhao Yu was standing outside the door. It had been two months since she last saw her. Her temperament seemed to be even more gentle and tranquil. Beside Zhao Yu stood Lin Ping, Ruan Fang , and Shen Xiaobao .
Zhao Yu couldn't help but be shocked when she saw Chu Jun in front of her. Yan Shui's blurry eyes lit up. Shen Xiaobao let out a weird cry. He rushed forward and looked at Chu Jun. He clicked his tongue and said, "You're not simple. You've recovered from such a serious injury in just two months. Even the Five Lightning Heavenly Art is about to enter the early stage of Spirit Refinement. It's incredible. Did the fatty give you some miraculous medicine?"
Lin Ping and Ruan Fang looked at each other in horror. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't believe that Chu Jun would have used only two months to reach the early stage of Spirit Refinement. This speed was something that only Eldest Senior Brother Shangguan Yu had achieved back then.
Chu Jun pushed away Shen Xiaobao , who was rubbing his body randomly, and said, "You must have eaten quite a bit of Master's miraculous pills, right?"
"Pei pei! That damn fatty is an iron rooster. I wish that Yours Truly would be more filial to him!" Shen Xiaobao said angrily.
Zhao Yu glared at Shen Xiaobao and said angrily, "How can I say that about my master?"
Shen Xiaobao chuckled and said, "It's alright, Master, that's all he has to say. If Yours Truly doesn't call him fatty, he won't feel well!"
Chu Jun couldn't help but be speechless. It was true that there were disciples as well as teachers. Qu Zhengfeng was an old and disrespected disciple, and the disciple he taught was also this kind of virtue. Zhao Yu gently swept her hair across her forehead and smiled softly, "Chu Jun, congratulations on your progress!"
Chu Jun smiled and said, "Thank you, Senior Sister Zhao , why are you free to visit me today?"
Zhao Yufang's heart trembled. She blamed Chu Jun for not coming to see him for more than two months. She hurriedly said, "Master told me to go into seclusion and concentrate on my cultivation. These two days, I came out of seclusion!" '"Junior Brother Lin and the others came to see me, so they came to see if your injuries were healed!"
" Junior Brother Chu , don't invite us in!" Lin Ping said with a smile.
Chu Jun hurriedly let the four of them into the courtyard.
Ruan Fang sized up the surroundings of the courtyard and said with a faint smile, " Junior Brother Chu , this courtyard is not bad!"
Chu Jun couldn't help but wonder why this fellow's attitude towards him had suddenly changed. He quietly said, " Senior Brother Ruan , you're laughing!"
Ruan Fang said sincerely, " Junior Brother Chu , there have been many misunderstandings between us before. I almost hurt you in the arena. I have always been very sorry. I sincerely apologize to you here. I hope you don't take the past matter to heart!"
Chu Jun was even more puzzled. What kind of medicine was this fellow selling in his gourd? However, when he saw Zhao Yushi beside him, he seemed to understand a bit and said indifferently, " Senior Brother Ruan , you're joking. I've long forgotten about this!"
A hint of joy flashed across Zhao Yu's eyes as he smiled and said softly, "The fellow disciples should understand and tolerate each other!"
Ruan Fang smiled and nodded, "Junior Sister Zhao is right. You must be friendly and united with your fellow disciples!"
" Chu Jun , since your injuries are healed, shouldn't you consider completing the task of forging the sword?" Zhao Yu said softly.
Chu Jun nodded and said, "I'm planning to start in the near future!"
Zhao Yuxi said, "That's great. We are also preparing to go out to look for ores. Let's go along. I know where there are ores to forge a first-grade flying sword!"
"Hehe, Chu Jun , you're lucky. With our help, you'll be able to gather enough materials to refine a sword soon!" Shen Xiaobao said casually.
Chu Jun asked curiously, "Do you also want to refine swords?"
Zhao Yu shook her head and said, "They are all here to help me find thunderfluorite . Last time, when Long Shenguang erupted, I picked up a low-grade third-grade broken sword that needs to be repaired with thunderfluorite !"
Hearing this, Chu Jun 's heart skipped a beat, and he blurted out, "Lightning fluorite?"
Everyone couldn't help but look at Chu Jun strangely. Zhao Yu nodded and said, "What's wrong?"
Chu Jun hurriedly said, "Nothing much. This kind of ore should be very rare, right?"
Ruan Fang said indifferently, "Naturally!"
Zhao Yu said regretfully, "Last time we went out to look for it, we couldn't find it for a month!"
Seeing this, Chu Jun almost blurted out that he had a piece. In the end, he endured it and comforted, "I will definitely find it this time!"
Zhao Yuyan smiled and said, "I hope so, but it doesn't matter if I can't find it. Anyway, there's still more than a year left!"
