Chapter 339: New Method

Spirit Vein Xiang Yu sat in deep concentration, attempting to initiate the bridge building process. Despite his efforts, after some time, he remained unsuccessful.

It was just like with his main body.

When facing this issue with his main body, he had theorized that true qi was probably the limiting factor. Though uncertain about this theory, it was the only explanation he could think of with the current variables, so he decided to go with it. He would now begin condensing true qi with this body.

For his main body, condensing true qi had been impossible before reaching the core formation realm and gaining qi equivalent to nascent soul realm quality.

However, he didn’t think this would be an issue here since the spirit vein was heavenly grade. Shouldn’t the qi quality be quite high as well? He wasn’t entirely sure as when absorbing qi, its quality was difficult to determine. The spiritual root would later refine it to make it ready for use. Although this process was simpler for him since he utilized all elements, other processes were still involved.

“Well, only one way to find out,” he thought as he began attempting to condense the qi into true qi.

Surprisingly, after just a few breaths, he successfully condensed a drop of true qi, this was multiple times faster than condensing in his main body.

He paused as a sudden idea struck him.

Main body Xiang Yu approached the core of the spirit vein and placed his hand upon it. Instantly, a refreshing energy washed over him as he transferred the drop of true qi from the tree body into his main body. His expression brightened considerably.

A wild idea formed in his mind.

He no longer cared about the integration realm tree monster concept. What if he used the tree to condense true qi and transfer it to himself? The process was significantly faster with the tree body. With his enormous spiritual sea, at his current pace, the process might take years to complete. But this method, while still potentially requiring years, would be much more efficient.

He wondered why the spirit vein performed this task so much faster. After contemplation, he guessed it was probably an inherent ability of the spirit vein – likely possessing the inherent ability to easily manage various types of energy. He tested this theory by attempting to transform the qi into different elemental forms, and it worked almost as seamlessly as his omni-element spirit root.

In the evening after dinner, Li Yao sat in her sect master chair, quickly reviewing memorandums, approving and disapproving swiftly.

As her brush moved across the documents, her thoughts drifted…

According to her senior brother’s calculations, tomorrow would be the day of confrontation with the enemy.

Her cultivation had increased substantially in preparation for this encounter. Thanks to her senior brother’s endless supply of heavenly grade spirit food, she now stood just slightly away from the peak of the soul formation realm. The only reason she wasn’t consuming it continuously around the clock was because the empress had warned her to take breaks to prevent qi poisoning.

Otherwise, she would have broken through already. Even with these precautions, she was confident she would reach the peak before the next day arrived.

Still, doubt flickered through her mind, could she actually win?

The empress had informed her about the enemy’s level and strength, when she thought about the power difference, she felt a little uncertain.

But she quickly corrected her train of thought. No, she had to win. Her senior brother was relying on her.

Moreover, her expression transformed into a menacing smile, “She actually dared to covet what belongs to me. How should I deal with her? Will slicing her into a million tiny pieces teach her a lesson? Or maybe I should also barbecue her with my lightning. Ahh, there are so many things I want to do to her, really makes me unable to wait…”

[What are you doing?] the empress asked.

It was then that Li Yao realized her drool was getting onto the memorandums.

“Ah, nothing,” she said, quickly wiping her mouth with her sleeve.

The empress just shook her head and decided to ignore it. This girl had a few (all) screws loose anyway, so bothering her wasn’t worth it.

[Hmm, why do I have the feeling that someone is thinking about me? An old friend perhaps? Or enemy…]
