Mortal Cultivator: Lin Tianzun

Chapter 117 Breakthrough to the Late Jindan Stage
As soon as the honeymoon period was over, Lin Fan arranged for Chen Qiaoqian to practice, and handed her a cave token, telling her that this token could be used to enter other places except the medicine garden and the practice room, and could also be used to enter and exit the cave.

Afterwards, Lin Fan walked into the practice room and slowly sat down cross-legged in front of a cushion.

He looked calm, but his slightly trembling fingertips revealed his inner excitement, "Late Jindan stage, here I come!" he said silently in his heart.

Then, he took out a strengthened Yin-Yang Creation Pill from his storage bag.

This elixir has been carefully cultivated in the Qiankun Creation Cauldron and has been transformed.

Its surface was faintly marked with traces of dan patterns, emitting a heart-pounding, powerful spiritual energy fluctuation. Just by holding it in the hand, one could feel the tremendous power trembling at the fingertips.

Lin Fan put the pill into his mouth without any hesitation.

As soon as the pill touched the tip of the tongue, it instantly turned into a surging torrent of spiritual power.

This spiritual power was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. In the blink of an eye, it rushed through his meridians. Wherever it passed, his meridians felt a sharp pain, as if they were being burned by fire.

Lin Fan was shocked and did not dare to slack off at all. He immediately practiced the "Nine Revolutions Sword Technique".

In an instant, the spiritual energy in his body surged and began to circulate in a mysterious rhythm.

The operation of the technique was like an invisible but powerful hand, trying to tame the drug power that was running around.

He closed his eyes tightly, his thick eyelashes casting a faint shadow on his eyelids. He concentrated on guiding his spiritual power, slowly running it along the meridian route recorded in the "Nine Revolutions Sword Technique", refining and integrating the violent medicinal power bit by bit.

Time passed quietly, and months flew by in a flash. Inside the training room, Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes, a flicker of surprise and excitement in them.

After several months of arduous refining, he clearly felt that the medicinal power of this enhanced pill had at least doubled.

Such a powerful medicinal effect played a huge role in improving his cultivation and greatly increased his magic power.

Lin Fan took out another pill and swallowed it.

Time flies, and five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

During these five years, Lin Fan was completely immersed in the world of cultivation, almost isolated from the outside world.

As he took each Yin-Yang Creation Pill, it transformed into tremendous spiritual power, which continuously flowed into his body, accumulating strength for his breakthrough.

The day of breakthrough finally arrived, and Lin Fan was practicing his skills with all his strength, trying to break through the shackles.

His breathing became heavier, and every breath brought out a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation, which vibrated the surrounding air and made a "buzzing" sound.

Lin Fan attacked the bottleneck again and again, and he didn't know how many times he had attacked. He only heard a crisp "puff" sound, as if the ice was breaking, and the shackles were broken in one fell swoop.

Lin Fan successfully broke through to the late Jindan stage!
In an instant, a powerful aura burst out from him, like a surging wave, spreading out in all directions like a tidal wave. The entire secret room was shaken, and the magic runes on the wall flickered.

He slowly opened his eyes, and an unprecedented light flashed in his eyes, which was the confidence and control over his own powerful strength after the breakthrough.

At this moment, he could clearly feel that his magic power and spiritual awareness had more than doubled.

He activated his magic power, and the spiritual energy around him surged, as if he possessed endless power.

His spiritual sense also became more sharp and powerful, and it slowly spread out, ten miles, twenty miles, fifty miles, one hundred miles, and finally stopped at one hundred and forty miles.

Lin Fan could sense any movement within the 140 miles.

You should know that the spiritual awareness range of an ordinary cultivator in the early stage of the Nascent Soul is only one hundred miles, one hundred and fifty miles in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and three hundred miles in the late stage.

In other words, Lin Fan's spiritual power now far surpassed that of an early Nascent Soul cultivator, and was not far from reaching that of a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator. Spiritual power was extremely important. It made magical weapons more agile and responsive during combat; it allowed for greater range when exploring secret realms; it also allowed for tracking enemies; and it even played a role in achieving breakthroughs.

Lin Fan stood up and stretched his muscles. His bones made a slight "cracking" sound, and he felt relaxed all over.

Now with his cultivation level in the late Jindan stage, he is considered a powerful figure in the world of immortal cultivation.

Now, if he were to fight against an early Nascent Soul cultivator, even if he couldn't defeat him, protecting himself shouldn't be a problem. After all, since they had never actually fought, Lin Fan didn't know what the outcome would be.
In the corner of the secret room, the fire phoenix was lying on the ground and taking a nap comfortably, emitting a soft flame glow all over its body, like a burning dream cloud, warm and charming.

Its body rose and fell slightly with its steady breathing. It was obviously sleeping soundly, and occasionally it would let out a few soft snoring sounds.

However, the spiritual power shock caused by Lin Fan's breakthrough was like a strong storm, breaking the tranquility of the secret room.

The Fire Phoenix's head suddenly lifted up, and its ruby-like eyes opened instantly, full of vigilance and confusion.

It flapped its wings, making a "puffing" sound, and flew quickly towards the source of the spiritual power fluctuations - Lin Fan, as fast as a red lightning.

In the blink of an eye, the Fire Phoenix landed lightly on Lin Fan's shoulder.

It tilted its head and looked at Lin Fan curiously with its bright eyes, as if it had sensed the earth-shaking changes in its master.

Then, it rubbed Lin Fan's cheek affectionately with its head, making a soft "cooing" sound in its throat, as if expressing its joy and intimacy. The soft touch and warm breath made Lin Fan's heart surge with warmth.

This fire phoenix has maintained its cultivation level at the middle stage of the Core Formation Realm over the past few years.

However, if you look closely, you can find that its feathers have become thicker, and each feather is shining with a more dazzling luster, like a carefully forged red gold feather.

Its body is also a little bigger than before. Its originally small figure now looks more agile and heroic, and it faintly exudes a more powerful aura, demonstrating its growth and transformation.

Lin Fan felt Huo Feng's intimate gesture, and a gentle smile appeared on his face. That smile was like the warm sunshine in spring, warm and gentle.

He raised his hand and gently placed it on the Fire Phoenix's forehead, slowly stroking its smooth and warm feathers.

Huo Feng narrowed her ruby ​​eyes, tilted her head back slightly, looked contented, and let out a more cheerful "cooing" sound from her throat. Her whole body relaxed, and she nestled comfortably on Lin Fan's shoulder.

Its feathers trembled gently as Lin Fan stroked it, and every touch seemed to scratch its itch, making it immersed in this comfort.

It would gently flutter its wings from time to time, as if conveying its inner joy to Lin Fan. Its cheerful appearance made people laugh.

In this quiet secret room, the interaction between the man and the phoenix is ​​full of warmth and harmony, as if time has stopped for this intimate emotion.

Lin Fan gently stroked the feathers of the Fire Phoenix, but his mind drifted away involuntarily, and he began to plan his future direction in his mind.

Now that he has successfully broken through to the late Jindan stage, he knows that it is unlikely to make another major breakthrough in cultivation in a short period of time.

With his current cultivation level at the late Jindan stage, it is impossible to break through to the Yuanying stage in just a few years.

Moreover, the difference in cultivation between the late Jindan stage and the late peak stage is actually not that big, it is just that the magic power is slightly shallower by 20% to 30%.

But at the moment, there is a more pressing matter lingering in his mind, and that is the impending invasion of demons.

He thought to himself that in just two or three years, the six sects of the Demonic Path would surely launch an invasion.

The seven major sects in the Yue Kingdom's immortal cultivation world are far behind the six sects of the Demonic Path in strength. They are not on the same level at all and are completely unable to resist the fierce invasion of the six sects of the Demonic Path.

Although he is now in the late Jindan stage and is considered to be quite powerful, he is well aware of the gap between the Jindan stage and the Yuanying stage.

It is better for me to develop in a low-key manner nowadays. What does the survival of Yue Kingdom's immortal cultivation world have to do with me? At worst, I can move to another place to continue practicing. The purpose of cultivating immortals is to achieve immortality. Unless one has absolute strength, "the tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind"!
