Ye Liuyun had not cultivated with full concentration for a long time.
Now that no one was following him and he had the protection of the black python and the vulture, he could finally rest assured to cultivate.
So he took a Vitality Reinforcement Pills and began to cultivate his True Qi to condense True Qi seeds in the eighth Meridian.
He had fought endless battles for the past few days. He felt like this was the best method of consolidating himself and raising his cultivation realm. This might also have something to do with his bloodline.
He did not waste much effort to open up the eighth Meridian. He opened it in a short time. Now, he was familiar with the process of opening up the meridian, and his tolerance for pain had improved a lot.
After that, he began to cultivate his Divine Soul and used the power of thunder to refine the Soul Sword.
His current thunder power was much stronger than before. In the beginning, his Divine Soul was not used to it, making him grimace in pain, and his face turned pale.
He barely got used to it when it was almost dawn. But he did not continue. Instead, he took a Soul Concentration Pill and slept for a while.
After daybreak, they once again rode on the vulture and rushed towards Sky Fortune Town.
According to the vulture's speed, they would rest for another night and arrive at noon tomorrow. The vulture was very familiar with this area, so they did not have to worry about going the wrong way.
On the back of the vulture, Ye Liuyun was not idle.
First, he swallowed the Blood Vine Pill to increase the degree of the awakening of his bloodline, and then he practiced his Divine Soul.
In short, he kept cultivating without sparing a moment. Lei Ming was bored to death, but she did not dare to disturb him.
When she was resting in the evening, Ye Liuyun saw that she was really bored, so he cut the meat and roasted it while chatting with her about how to use the dagger.
"You don't know how to use it? Then why are you holding an assassin's dagger?" Lei Ming was also interested.
Ye Liuyun raised the dagger and looked at it before asking, "You can even tell that this is from an assassin? Why can't I tell what's the difference? It's just normal Darksteel, right? I got it from someone who was hunting me down."
"Look, this dagger doesn't reflect any light. It must be specially made for assassination!" As Lei Ming spoke, she took out her own dagger and demonstrated a few moves to him, telling him the method of assassination.
"You just need to use the dagger as an extension of your arm!" said Lei Ming.
Ye Liuyun suddenly came to realization when he heard that.
"That's right! The Sky Cutting Finger is also an extension of an arm!"
As he spoke, he turned his finger and pointed out.
With a "chi" sound, a small hole as big as a finger was pierced through the big tree next to him.
Sure enough, not only did he save a lot of True Qi, but his power had also increased a lot.
Ye Liuyun immediately stopped barbecuing and started practicing the Sky Cutting Finger. In one go, he had cultivated the Sky Cutting Finger to the Consummation Phase.
Ever since Ye Liuyun had the Sky Cutting Finger, he had rarely cultivated his Star Plucking Claw. Cultivation methods should be good and not a lot is needed. He could not cultivate too many cultivation methods too.
Lei Ming just stood there, staring at him fascinatedly. "Your comprehension ability isn't bad!"
"You too!" Ye Liuyun was a little humble. He threw away the burned meat and switched for another piece of meat to continue roasting.
"Roast two more pieces for me. I can't teach you for nothing!" Lei Ming said coquettishly.
"Alright! You can eat as much as you want tonight!" Ye Liuyun also laughed happily.
"But where did you learn all your cultivation methods?" Ye Liuyun asked curiously.
"I'm a Demon, so I don't need to learn them specifically. Some cultivation methods were passed down in my bloodline. And these techniques were also summarized by my ancestors. They are very suitable for us." Lei Ming did not hide anything and told him directly.
After hearing this, Ye Liuyun's face was filled with envy. He did not know if he would get any powerful cultivation methods after his bloodline was fully awakened.
That night, Ye Liuyun cultivated his Divine Soul and power of bloodline for a while before lying down early to sleep.
When they arrived at Sky Fortune Town, something might happen. They might not even be able to sleep.
"Since it's safe now, I'd better sleep a little longer! It's extravagant to sleep now!"
Ye Liuyun sighed in his heart and fell asleep very quickly. However, he was already used to preserving some of his Divine Sense to stay awake even if he is sleeping.
While he was sleeping, he found that Lei Ming had changed into her real form and was sleeping in his arms. He did not care about it and even held it in his arms. It was very hairy and warm.
They slept until dawn and continued their journey.
Soon, they arrived at Sky Fortune Town.
Ye Liuyun looked down at Sky Fortune Town from the sky and had a different understanding of this city. This was also the first time he had observed a city from the sky.
Suddenly, he thought of those legendary powerful figures who could fly in the air. Did they think that the people below were so small too?
As the vulture slowly landed outside the city, Ye Liuyun became even more agitated.
He had finally arrived! Ever since he left Fengyang City, his journey had been full of ups and downs. He had finally reached his destination!
He made the vulture and the black python shrink and asked them to stay in his Interspatial Ring.
Then, he discussed it with Lei Ming. If he went to the Preparatory Camp, he could not bring Lei Ming with him, so he asked Lei Ming to stay in the Interspatial Ring too.
However, Lei Ming did not agree. She said that she was an ancient feral beast and could not stay in the Storage Treasure. In fact, she felt that it was too stuffy to stay there. Therefore, after a negotiation, Lei Ming transformed into her true form and lay on Ye Liuyun's shoulder as his pet, following Ye Liuyun into the city.
As the selection of the Sky Fortune Mansion was about to begin, martial art artists from other places were gathering here. Thus, many inns were packed with people.
The guest rooms could no longer be found. In the end, Ye Liuyun could only rent a courtyard. Although it was a lot more expensive, it was very quiet and would not be disturbed by others.
After he moved in, he inquired about the time and venue of the competition.
Then he was pestered by Lei Ming. They went shopping in the town and he bought a lot of delicious food for her. They only returned to the inn until Lei Ming could not eat anymore.
There were still seven days before the competition. He could still improve his realm.
For the rest of the time, he did not go out. Instead, he started cultivating in his residence. He wanted to raise his realm to the First Level of the Genuine Condensation Phase before the competition.
However, things went contrary to his wishes. It took a lot of effort for the True Qi seeds in his ninth meridian to condense.
But he always failed while using True Qi to open up the whole meridian.
He thought about it. Perhaps it was because his True Qi was not condensed enough, or his Sea of Qi was not expanded enough. So in the remaining time, he desperately compressed and condensed his True Qi to expand his Sea of Qi.
In the end, he managed to rebuild his meridian before the competition began.
The last meridian was wider than the other meridians.
Although his realm had not broken through, Ye Liuyun discovered that the speed at which he absorbed the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth had rapidly increased by more than ten times after his ninth meridian had been rebuilt.
Although he also felt that the speed of absorbing the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy increased rapidly every time he opened up a Spiritual Meridian, it was not until he completed the reconstruction of the nine meridians that he felt his speed increase rapidly.
Thanks to the reconstruction of his meridians, he absorbed the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth ten times faster than before. On the night before the competition, the True Qi seeds in Ye Liuyun's entire body finally made a move and had the intention of gathering into his Sea of Qi.
However, there was not enough time left for him. He could only stop and wait for the breakthrough to the Genuine Condensation Phase after the match.
