"Sigh..."

Zhang Bin couldn't help but find it amusing and helpless as he ignored the pair of future unrivaled beauties and started to regulate his breathing.

After more than an hour of adjusting his breath, he took out a jade vial and poured out an elixir emitting a rich fragrance.

This was the Qingling Pill, of course.

He found all the medicinal herbs in Youming Dongtian and the Dragon Blood Forbidden Zone and refined ten batches—90 Qingling Pills.

The Qingling Pill is far less valuable than the Nascent Soul Pill, and its refining is not as challenging.

Moreover, there was neither heavenly tribulation for the elixir nor the oddity of the elixir becoming a spirit.

Thus, Zhang Bin successfully refined it with ease.

The reason for making so many was to trade with Gao Si.

He swallowed one without hesitation.

The Qingling Pill dissolved instantly upon entrance into his mouth, turning into a peculiar liquid, swirling around in his abdomen.

Finally, Zhang Bin diligently guided it into the Dantian.

It dripped onto the surface of the seed.

"Boom..."

A magical thing happened.

A rich purple light rose from the surface of the seed, as if a violent reaction had occurred.

The seed also began to rapidly expand and then contract.

It cycled in this pattern rhythmically.

The purple light flickered between bright and dim.

The seed seemed to be undergoing a transformation.

It was breaking through its current limits to devour more True Qi and Dragon Qi once again.

The miraculous effect of the Qingling Pill was bestowing the seed with greater spirituality, allowing it to break through its limits.

After a while, Zhang Bin consumed another Qingling Pill.

According to the instructions of the Qingmu Longevity Technique, to break through to the Late Stage of the Seed Condensing Realm, one must consume one or more Qingling Pills.

The more elixir the seed absorbs, the greater its potential, and the more powerful the Divine Tree it will develop in the future.

However, generally speaking, two pills are sufficient.

But Zhang Bin's seed was not just any Divine Wood seed; it was an Innate Spirit Seed.

Thus, the situation was different.

Quickly, the medicinal power of the second pill was absorbed by the seed.

It was still far from reaching its limit, and no magical transformation had occurred.

Zhang Bin continued consuming the Qingling Pills.

The third pill, the fourth pill...

He continued taking them mechanically.

And his seed seemed like a bottomless pit that could never be satiated.

10 pills, 30 pills... 60 pills, 70 pills.

It wasn't until the 72nd pill that the seed reached its limit.

Suddenly, it burst out with an incomparably brilliant purple light, enveloping Zhang Bin.

Forming a cocoon of light, it kept expanding and contracting.

"Boom..."

A thunderous sound suddenly echoed in Zhang Bin's mental world, and he felt himself breaking through an invisible bottleneck.

"Woo..."

The seed within the Dantian issued a powerful devouring force, madly absorbing the True Qi in the Dantian. In an instant, it devoured all the liquid within, and the momentum was simply terrifying.

Moreover, the Dragon Qi of the Dragon Palace was attracted by the devouring force and swarmed in, permeating Zhang Bin's body, being absorbed by his bones, muscles, and blood vessels. Naturally, most of it entered the Dantian and was absorbed by the seed.

Evidently, by breaking through to the Late Stage of the Seed Condensing Realm, Zhang Bin broke the limits, allowing the seed to devour Dragon Qi once again. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The bodily limits were also shattered, enabling rapid absorption and refinement of the Dragon Qi.

"Not good, not enough True Qi."

Zhang Bin's expression changed dramatically. With a thought, ten thousand top-grade spirit stones flew out of his space ring.

Under the massive devouring force, they instantly shattered, transforming into spiritual energy that lingered in the Dragon Palace.

A magical event unfolded; the seed suddenly burst with a surge of purple light, enveloping all the spiritual energy.

Fine strands of purple gas were dissected out.

All were devoured by the seed, which emitted an incredibly joyous sound, as if it had tasted something delightful.

Zhang Bin's heart soared with joy, for he felt the seed just devoured much Hongmeng Purple Qi.

This is the most mystical gas in Heaven and Earth, enabling creatures to continually grow stronger.

However, any creature's speed in absorbing and refining Hongmeng Purple Qi is usually very slow.

He never thought his seed was so miraculous, capable of devouring so much Hongmeng Purple Qi!

Could it be due to the sudden breakthrough, thereby displaying great prowess?

Without hesitation, he released 100,000 top-grade spirit stones from his space ring.

Displaying a lavish demeanor.

"Oh my God, who is he really? How could he possess so many top-grade spirit stones? Is he the son of an Immortal Emperor?" The Dragon Vein was utterly dumbfounded, drooling.

If it could devour so many top-grade spirit stones, it would become much stronger, possibly achieving Earth Dragon state billions of years sooner.

Seems like clinging tightly to this youth's thigh is a must!

"Woo woo woo..."

The seed became increasingly excited, once more bursting out brilliant purple light, enveloping all the spirit stones.

The spirit stones rapidly shattered, swiftly releasing Hongmeng Purple Qi, which was promptly absorbed by the seed.

The spiritual energy, on the other hand, swarmed into Zhang Bin's body.

By breaking through the realm at this special moment, Zhang Bin's body transformed True Qi at an astonishing speed.

The spiritual energy was absorbed by the body and immediately transformed into True Qi, gathering into the Dantian, turning into liquid, and descending into the sea beneath.

"Master's seed is too miraculous." Xiao Qing & Xiao Lv were dumbfounded, utterly shocked.

However, the seed's ability to absorb and refine Hongmeng Purple Qi still had its limits.

After a while of devouring, it finally reached its limit.

It ceased to absorb and refine Hongmeng Purple Qi, and 20,000 spirit stones remained unshattered.

However, the seed continued to devour Dragon Qi and True Qi.

Of course, the speed was no longer as fierce as before.

"How can I get hold of the remaining 20,000 top-grade spirit stones?"

The Dragon Vein drooled and muttered in its heart.

After cultivating for 10 hours like this, Zhang Bin finally stabilized his realm.

The seed also stopped devouring Dragon Qi and True Qi rapidly, merely inhaling and exhaling gently.

As if breathing.

Zhang Bin opened his eyes, and two dazzling rays shot out, brightening the Dragon Palace significantly.

A powerful aura and oppression surged out, gathering together, genuinely impressive.

He was already beginning to show his promising edge.

"Hahaha... I've finally cultivated to the Late Stage of the Seed Condensing Realm. I've nearly doubled in strength. Even my soul and spiritual power have greatly improved." Zhang Bin experienced it closely, then laughed excitedly, his face full of confidence.

Now, he was absolutely certain he could handle a Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator.

Even a Mid-Nascent Soul cultivator might be within his reach to confront.

However, he was also clearly aware that defeating formidable experts like Min Tatian was still a bit short.

After all, a cultivator's strength lies not only in the soul and the body but also in Daoist magic.

Daoist magic is the essence of a cultivator...
