I meet all the requirements for becoming a god in this world!

Xu Jiayin was giving instructions with great enthusiasm.

Hearing Cheng Laiyun's words, he frowned, glanced at him sideways, and asked:

"What do you mean?"

Cheng Laiyun reacted quickly; in the blink of an eye, he had already figured out how to deal with the situation.

He looked at Xu Jiayin with a shy expression and said:

"I just remembered that I often get seasick. If it were normal, I wouldn't make a fuss and would just bear with it for a while."

"But recently, in order to find a breakthrough, I've been focusing on strengthening my spirit and soul, afraid that this might affect me..."

After using the supernatural power of "Forgetful River Guide" to empathize with the dead, he had no doubt about the giant black snake in the Qujiang River.

From a realistic perspective, the original owner of this body had never heard of this giant black snake in all those years of his life, and he himself had never heard of it since he transmigrated.

Whether it is true or not remains to be verified.

However, in his empathy, he could feel the oppression in the heart of the deceased.

If it's fake, traveling by land would just take a few more days.

But if they really did travel by water... then the three of them would probably be no match for that giant black snake.

After Cheng Laiyun finished speaking.

Ling Ziyun waved his hand and laughed, "It's just seasickness, don't worry about it. I'll make you some preventative incense right away."

As he spoke, he got up and walked outside, but as soon as he lifted his foot, his whole body went limp.

"Pfft..."

"Be careful!" Fortunately, Cheng Laiyun reacted quickly and stepped forward to support Ling Ziyun, preventing him from hitting his head on the ground.

"Ahem." Ling Ziyun was embarrassed, and he said shyly:

"I just used a forbidden medical technique, so I'm a little weak. It's alright... Help me up!"

"Alright!" Xu Jiayin waved her hand impatiently, then her large, bright eyes sized Cheng Laiyun up and down, her gaze filled with suspicion.

Are you sure you have seasickness?

"Why have I never heard you mention this before?"

Cheng Laiyun looked innocent and spread his hands, saying, "When have I ever had the chance to ride a boat with my senior sister before?"

"If that's really the case." Xu Jiayin frowned as she looked at Cheng Laiyun's face.

His handsome face remained as unremarkable as ever.

But upon closer inspection, one can still detect a subtle hint of fatigue.

"Since this is a crucial moment for your breakthrough, we will not take the water route."

After saying that, she instructed her men to prepare two more carriages to carry all the food, clothing and other necessities for the journey.

Changing her itinerary at the last minute is nothing to Xu Jiayin, who is very wealthy.

So it's very fast.

So they set off.

…………

This is a long procession of seven horse-drawn carriages.

The first three carriages carried supplies, while the last four were the carriages belonging to Xu Jiayin, Cheng Laiyun, and Ling Ziyun.

The last vehicle was carrying food and drinks.

The original plan was to travel by land, by horse-drawn carriage to Qinglongshuijian, and then by boat to join the Qujiang River.

As a result, when the carriage reached Qinglong Mountain, it headed south along the mountain road.

The journey by water would normally take no more than seven days.

Traveling by land would take twelve or thirteen days.

On the first day, Cheng Laiyun was fine no matter what, and his food tasted delicious.

He was still alright the next day.

On the third day, something seemed off about him.

On the fourth day...

Cheng Laiyun was already somewhat dazed.

I haven't slept for seven days.

His dark circles are now so intense they resemble those of a panda.

He doesn't dare close his eyes at all now.

I'm afraid that if I close my eyes, I'll just say goodnight.

Even when he was cultivating, he kept his eyes open.

However, one thing is certain: after so many days of torment, he could feel that the speed at which his spiritual energy was nourishing his divine soul had increased.

Moreover, the power of the divine soul already has a faint feeling of "transforming the illusory into the real".

I just don't know if it's a hallucination caused by not sleeping for so many days.

On the evening of the fifth day.

"yawn……"

Moon stars are rare.

Cheng Laiyun felt like he was about to have a nightmare and his computer would crash.

He sat cross-legged in the carriage.

The last cycle of spiritual energy was completed.

He took a deep breath and silently felt the nourishment of the spiritual power within his sea of ​​consciousness...

"I can't take it anymore..."

"We can't hold on any longer."

"Since we've already come this far, if it doesn't work, let's just try to break through!"

In Cheng Laiyun's extremely tired eyes, there was a captivating glint.

If I keep going... I might die suddenly.

At this moment, the carriage caravan stopped in a grove of trees.

The carriage servants were all sleeping soundly inside the carriage.

"Young Miss, I feel I've reached my limit and can't go on any longer."

We must try to break through.

When Cheng Lai arrived at Xu Jiayin's carriage, his eyes were already filled with exhaustion.

His voice was hoarse.

Cheng Laiyun even felt like he wasn't himself anymore.

They act and speak like zombies.

Xu Jiayin lifted the car curtain and frowned as she looked at Cheng Laiyun's current state:

Are you sure you can do it?

"If the breakthrough fails, it will take at least twice as long to achieve another breakthrough next time."

"Fifty percent." Cheng Laiyun didn't mince words, holding up five fingers:

"If I don't make a breakthrough now, I'm afraid I won't make it to tomorrow."

His expression was very serious.

"Hmm, here, this is Spirit Replenishing Elixir. Take one bottle before breaking through." Xu Jiayin thought for a moment, then took out a small pink porcelain bottle from her bosom, her pretty face shrouded in solemnity.

"To prevent insufficient spiritual power during the breakthrough, which would prevent the formation of the Divine Soul Seed."

"good!"

Anyway, I already owe the young lady enough.

Having too much debt means you don't have to worry.

After receiving the porcelain bottle, Cheng Laiyun returned to his carriage and then sat down cross-legged.

All he wants now is to break through to the next level and then get a good night's sleep.

Sleep for seven days and seven nights!

……

Xu Jiayin watched Cheng Laiyun get into the carriage, feeling uneasy.

She thought for a moment, then got out of the carriage and walked to Ling Ziyun's carriage:

"Ling Ziyun, are you asleep?"

"Not yet!" After several days of recuperation, Ling Ziyun had fully recovered to her peak condition. She lifted the car curtain and glanced at Xu Jiayin:

"What's wrong?"

"Cheng Laiyun is about to break through." Xu Jiayin's expression was grave.

"But for some reason, I feel uneasy today."

"Don't sleep tonight, come with me to protect Cheng Laiyun."

Ling Ziyun rarely saw Xu Jiayin speak to him so seriously.

His expression also turned serious at the same time:

"it is good."

Done.

The two had already arrived in front of Cheng Laiyun's carriage.

They each found a place to sit cross-legged.

Inside the carriage.

Cheng Laiyun closed his eyes and remained quiet for a while.

One breath, two breaths... three breaths.

"Snapped!"

Cheng Laiyun suddenly woke up with a start and slapped himself.

"Holy crap, I almost fell asleep."

"Indeed, we can never let our guard down!"

"Phew~"

He took a deep breath, no longer hesitated, and downed the spiritual liquid in the porcelain bottle in one gulp.

After the spiritual liquid entered his mouth, it transformed into a raging and boundless spiritual power, directly filling his entire body.

"There's no time to lose!"

Cheng Laiyun immediately controlled the spiritual energy and charged towards the two bridges of heaven and earth.

"To break through to the eighth rank, one should use all one's strength to impact the divine soul, compressing it into a seed, rather than nurturing it!"

This is a key principle in the Mo Sect's path from the ninth rank to the eighth rank.
