I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 339 The Fifth Level of Body Forging
Sandbar, Mount Qingcheng.

Xie Xuan, who had just finished practicing Qinggong, wiped the sweat from his forehead and turned to the staff who had been waiting for a long time and asked:

"Has the source crystal been delivered?"

The visitor nodded.

Then he signaled the people behind him to open a safe.

There were dozens of source crystals neatly placed inside.

"How much source crystal reserves are left now?"

Upon hearing this, the staff member reported and took out the documents that had been prepared long ago and handed them over.

"Since April, the source crystals used have totaled three parts."

"Of these, 50 pieces are used for cultivation, 20 pieces are used for source energy technology, and 100 pieces are used for spiritual plant cultivation."

"Including the 50 source crystals you called in this time, we have 45 source crystals left."

Xie Xuan rubbed his forehead with a headache.

Then he waved his hand, signaling the other party to leave.

Four months ago, all the source crystals that Xia Yuan left for Li Qingxuan had been used up.

If Xie Xuan had not taken out the source crystals from the official reserves, the few of them would have run out of resources for cultivation.

Of course, Xie Xuan cannot decide on the use of these source crystals alone.

More than half of the ministers of the Jiuzhou Management Department must agree to this.

Fortunately, when Xie Xuan suggested taking out the official source crystals and giving them to Li Qingxuan and others for practice first, the ministers did not object.

As the directors of the Jiuzhou Management Department, they all have this kind of vision.

However, after four months, the 50 source crystals were almost used up.

So Xie Xuan applied for another 50 yuan a few days ago.

So far, the official reserve of source crystals has almost reached the bottom.

Apart from cultivation, the most commonly used method is the cultivation of spiritual plants.

Less than half of the original potion produced at the beginning is now left.

That is why the authorities have increased the cultivation of spiritual plants.

After all, the more Origin Potions you have, the better.

Finally, there is Source Energy Technology, which also uses a part of it.

The so-called source energy technology is naturally the source energy conversion project researched by Mays and Xiao Wen.

After half a year of research by all the scientists at the experimental base, the situation where even the light bulb couldn't be lit is no longer the same.

The reason why only a weak current could be generated in the beginning was because the conversion rate was extremely low during the process of converting source energy.

This conversion rate is not even one in ten million.

Of course, the reason for this is that it was very imperfect at the beginning, and secondly, the conditions of the Metz laboratory were not up to par.

But later, with the joint efforts of countless top scientists and the assistance of the most advanced experimental equipment, scientists have increased the source energy conversion rate by hundreds of times.

Although the conversion rate is still very low after increasing by hundreds of times, the electricity generated is enough to power most scenarios.

The only problem is that the energy conversion process is very unstable.

However, with the current source crystal reserves, even if this problem can be solved, it will still be impossible to use it on a large scale in practice.

Before the problems of the Dharma-Ending Age are solved, the application of source energy technology will ultimately only be in a few areas.

So the focus now is still on improving conversion rate.

Only by increasing the conversion rate first can we provide enough energy.

According to scientists' calculations, if the source energy conversion rate can be increased to 50%, then only one hundred source crystals will be needed to provide the energy for a small spacecraft to fly to the moon.

It can be said that once source energy technology is truly utilized, it will greatly advance human exploration of the universe.

However, all of this requires sufficient source energy.

"Hey, why hasn't Xia Yuan come back yet?"

Xie Xuan sighed helplessly.

If Xia Yuan doesn't come back within half a year, both the cultivation of spiritual plants and the research on source energy technology will need to be suspended.

Of course, this is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is that the final selection will be held in more than ten months.

This is what is urgent.

If Xia Yuan doesn’t show up by then, it will be a lot of fun!
This guy forgets the time every time he practices. He is really helpless.

"Forget it, let's go practice first!"

Xie Xuan shook his head and muttered to himself in a low voice.

"At my current training speed, I should be able to break through to the third level of body forging in half a month at most."

In the past six months, Xie Xuan has put aside many worldly matters.

By now, he has reached the second level and tenth stage of body forging.

You only need to complete 4 more temperings to break through the third level of body forging.

He broke through from the first level of the second level to the tenth level in half a year. Although this speed cannot be considered fast, each step he took was very solid.

This can be seen from the tenth-order bottleneck.

He was stuck for five months at the first level of body building.

But now, only more than two months have passed since he broke through to the second level and tenth stage of body forging.

In other words, the time he spent on the second level and tenth stage of body forging was nearly two months less than the first level.

This is the benefit of learning martial arts.

The martial arts he learned was one of the light skills compiled by Li Qingxuan.

The name of this light skill is Wind Shadow Escape.

Well, as the name suggests, this light skill focuses on escaping.

While practicing this light skill, Xie Xuan even took several bottles of speed potions.

His normal running speed is about 11 meters per second, but once he uses the Wind Shadow Escape, the speed can soar to 16 meters per second.

Almost one third faster.

This is the horror of learning martial arts.

Little did people know that even when Xia Yuan was in his innate state, his speed was only 11 meters per second.

But now after learning martial arts, Xie Xuan’s basic speed can already catch up with Xia Yuan’s back then!
Of course, with his current physical condition, this speed cannot be sustained.

If he exerts all his strength, he will be completely exhausted in thirty seconds at most.

Even if he didn't use Qinggong, he couldn't last more than five minutes even if he burst out with all his strength.

Although Xia Yuan's speed was not fast at that time, it lasted for quite a long time.

A master at the innate realm can run at full speed for more than half an hour.

In fact, as long as one completes the first level of body-building training, when one bursts out with all his strength, he will not be much worse than an innate person.

The real strength of an innate master lies in his endurance, recovery, reaction and physical defense.

These aspects are leading in all aspects.

Therefore, even if it was a congenital master who had never learned any martial arts, it would not take much effort to deal with the current Xie Xuan.

Even if you use Qinggong to be twice as fast as me, how far can you run in 30 seconds?

However, if you are at the same level, there is a world of difference between learning martial arts and not!

Even before becoming an innate, a person at the second level of body forging could still unexpectedly defeat a person at the fifth level of body forging.

But, the innate nature is completely different!

The innate masters have undergone a certain transformation in their life level, and their control over their bodies has reached a level of ease.

"Come to think of it, Taoist Li shouldn't be far from the Xiantian realm!"

Xie Xuan remembered that a month ago, Li Qingxuan had already broken through to the fifth level of body forging.

If nothing unexpected happens, I have almost reached the third level of the fifth level of body forging.

Of course, the third-level origin potion played a significant role in Li Qingxuan's rapid breakthrough.

If he had not taken five bottles of third-level origin potion, Li Qingxuan would probably still be stuck at the fourth level and tenth stage of body forging.

"I don't know if he can break through to the Xiantian realm in half a year."

Xie Xuan really wanted to see what kind of changes would happen after becoming a Xiantian.

So far, only Li Qingxuan has reached the fifth level of Body Tempering. Among the others, even Feng Yuanshan, who has made the fastest progress, is only at the fourth level, sixth stage of Body Tempering.

As for the other four people from the Extraordinary Management Bureau, except Tang Ping, they have also entered the fourth level of body forging.

The rest are still at the third level of body building.

It is particularly worth mentioning that since Qingyue's mental power is relatively strong, she has almost no bottleneck.

Now her cultivation progress has officially surpassed Li Tianyi and reached the third level eight of body forging.

Li Tianyi and Lin Feng are both at the seventh level of the third level of body building.

It has to be said that Li Qingxuan's premonition was very accurate.

Since Li Tianyi has been living in the mountains for many years and has a rather lively personality, it is inevitable that his willpower is much weaker.

Of course, this is mainly because the people practicing around are a group of top talents.

That's why he seems to be much worse.

In fact, being able to cultivate to the third level of body forging in a year and a half is definitely not bad.

After all, being able to cultivate to the innate level is already stronger than most people.

Finally, there is Shao Longcheng, who has the slowest progress in cultivation.

In August, he had already broken through to the tenth level of the first level of body forging.

But until now, he still hasn't been able to break through to the second level of body forging.

This card was stuck for half a year.

Some time ago, he even fainted on the spot after practicing.

If it weren't for the timely rescue, the old man would probably have died.

Seeing his situation, Li Qingxuan and Lin Feng advised him many times to give up practicing.

You have to know that he is 92 years old and his body is extremely decayed.

If he had not taken more than a dozen bottles of origin potion before, he would not even be able to practice.

But the origin potion cannot stop the passage of life after all.

His organs were aging faster than he had imagined.

In this case, if he cannot break through, the more he practices, the faster he will die.

But facing the advice of several people, Shao Longcheng just replied calmly:
"If I can't live forever, what's the harm in dying?"

Didn't he understand that perhaps he had no hope at all?
But for him, if he cannot achieve immortality, then living a few more years will be meaningless.

This legendary figure has his own pride after all.

But, there is not much time left for him!

"Minister Xie, Mr. Xia is back."

At this moment, someone suddenly came to report.

"Back? Where?"

"It's in Taoist Priest Li's yard."

Hearing this, Xie Xuan's figure flashed, and he actually used his lightness skills to run away.

This scene left the surrounding guards stunned.

"Minister Xie's speed is probably faster than those of top athletes, right?"

"Perhaps it won't be long before Minister Xie no longer needs our protection!"

They looked at each other and all smiled bitterly.

……

In the yard where Li Qingxuan is.

When Xia Yuan learned from Li Qingxuan that Xie Xuan had given the official source crystals to several people for cultivation, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"I really have to thank Minister Xie this time."

If it weren't for Xie Xuan, the few of them would have had no way of practicing.

Seeing Li Qingxuan's current realm, Xia Yuan was very satisfied.

He broke through to the fifth level of body forging in a year and a half. Although this speed was a little slower than he had expected, it was still very good.

"It seems that within half a year, the Taoist priest will be able to break through to the Xiantian realm."

Hearing this, Li Qingxuan smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Practicing the fifth level of body forging is more difficult than I imagined."

"It's been a month since I broke through to the fifth level of body forging, but now I'm only at the second level."

Xia Yuan blurted out.

"No way, it took a month to break through to the first level?"

"..."

The corner of Li Qingxuan's mouth twitched. What does talent mean?
You really don't know how difficult it is to reach the fifth level of body building, right?
Oh fine!

For Xia Yuan, who broke through to the innate level in half a year, it seemed not difficult.

Just damn, can you please stop comparing everyone to yourself?

After a moment, Li Qingxuan adjusted his mood and continued:

"To be honest, fellow Daoist, this final stage of brain training requires extremely high mental strength."

"If your mental strength is insufficient, you may not be able to complete the tempering in one go."

"Of course, someone who can complete the first four levels of cultivation wouldn't be unable to complete even one tempering."

"It's just that after completing a tempering, it takes a long time to recover."

"I, the old Taoist priest, need about a day's rest to fully recover."

"And this is just the beginning. The difficulty will increase as you go on. Although my mental strength will improve as the tempering progresses, I'm not sure if my mental strength will be insufficient to complete a tempering session later on."

"It's no exaggeration to say that people who don't have enough mental strength will be stuck for a long time."

"It could take years, even decades."

"For most people, this level of training is several times more difficult than heart training."

After listening to this, Xia Yuan couldn't help but frown.

Li Qingxuan's mental strength is already quite strong among everyone.

At least for now, no one except Qingyue can surpass him.

At most, just like him.

If this is the case for him, wouldn't it be even harder for others?

Moreover, judging from the current progress, it seems that Li Qingxuan will have a hard time even reaching the innate level, let alone breaking through and awakening within a year.

"Does the Taoist have any good way to improve spiritual power?"

Li Qingxuan shook his head.

"As for improving spiritual power, many of my Taoist methods can play a certain role, but this requires long-term persistence, and the effect varies from person to person."

"For example, Daoist Fellow Qingyue, her effect is better."

"Of course, this is also related to her inherently strong mental strength. Moreover, her state of mind is quite good. She is naturally a good candidate for cultivation."

Speaking of Qingyue, a rare look of admiration flashed across Li Qingxuan's face.

"For others, the fifth level of body forging might be difficult, but for her, it might be the easiest one."

"In my estimation, she's the only one among us who can reach the peak of the fifth level of Body Tempering within half a year."

"If I'm fast, it'll take 8 months. If I'm slow, it might take more than a year!"

Speaking of this, Li Qingxuan felt a little ashamed.

There are only eleven months left until the college starts recruiting students. If he fails to awaken successfully, it would undoubtedly be a shame to Xia Yuan's trust!

So during this period of time, he hardly practiced martial arts.

After practicing the awakening method, he began to practice Taoist mental methods in order to improve his mental strength as quickly as possible.

"It's okay, Taoist priest, don't worry, safety is the most important thing."

Xia Yuan finally understood why brain training should be done last.

The risk of this level is the greatest. If you are not careful, you might become a fool.

If you don't lay a solid foundation beforehand and rashly start brain training, you will undoubtedly be seeking death!
"Xia Yuan, you're finally back. If you hadn't come back, I would have sent people to Antarctica to look for you!"

While the two were talking, a strong wind flashed by.

The next moment, Xie Xuan's figure landed steadily in the yard.
