Chapter 1080 — Late Yellow Stage? Profound Stage? As Qiu Lingshan Silently Circulated Her Inner-Art Mantra, the Shock in Her Heart Deepened — Yet Wei Zhao Still Showed No Sign of Stopping
Qiu Lingshan could feel that the peak of the late Yellow Stage was no longer far off!
Was this... real? Was she dreaming? Qiu Lingshan could hardly believe it; it was simply too unreal!
And yet, sometimes things are exactly like that — unreal.
Qiu Lingshan felt the true qi her body absorbed growing ever more abundant, and her strength was climbing apace! One could say today was the fastest day of improvement in her entire life! In the past, Qiu Lingshan could never have imagined that her strength could rise so迅猛 in so short a time — no, that her strength could rise so rapidly in so short a time!
True, Qiu Lingshan had fantasized before that through the Song family's dual-cultivation art she might bring her strength to the peak of the late Yellow Stage, but that had only been a fantasy. If the Song family's dual-cultivation art were really so effective, her grandfather could not have only just now reached the level of the peak of the late Yellow Stage.
But now Qiu Lingshan had a feeling — she really could break through! She really could reach the peak of the late Yellow Stage!
Qiu Lingshan glanced at Wei Zhao. He still sat there with his eyes closed, his expression unruffled, showing nothing amiss; so the thought of speaking up and stopping him had to be put aside for the time being!
In this situation Qiu Lingshan did not want to disturb Wei Zhao. Who knew whether a single word from her might distract him and send him into qi deviation?
Qiu Lingshan knew well that transmitting true qi to another was far more complex and perilous than cultivating on one's own — a moment's carelessness and one could suffer qi deviation. So even though she worried whether Wei Zhao might be overtaxed by passing her so much true qi, she held her tongue.
Qiu Lingshan took a deep breath, closed her eyes once more, and went on greedily absorbing the true qi Wei Zhao sent her. Such pure and dense qi could never be drawn from the natural world, so she prized it all the more, unwilling to waste the slightest fraction of it!
This was qi Wei Zhao had painstakingly cultivated over long years, now given to her for nothing — how could Qiu Lingshan betray such kindness?
Gratitude welled up silently in her heart, yet Qiu Lingshan dared not slacken for even a moment; she kept running the Song family's inner-art mantra. After a while she felt the true qi in her body growing thicker and thicker, as if it were about to touch the barrier of the peak of the late Yellow Stage!
So soon? Was she about to break through already?
An incredulous shock flickered through Qiu Lingshan's eyes — Wei Zhao was actually forcing her straight from the late Yellow Stage to the peak of the late Yellow Stage!
Before long Qiu Lingshan felt her body was about to burst. True qi poured into her with furious, overwhelming speed, not slowed in the least by the barrier. Under normal circumstances, every time one reached the barrier of a rank, true qi became hardest of all to draw in by even a fraction; but the situation now was entirely different!
Not only did the qi entering her fail to diminish, it actually showed a rising trend! Even as Qiu Lingshan agonized under the pain, she was inwardly somewhat appalled. She did not know what would come of this, whether there would be any side effects, but in the end she still did not stop cultivating. Wei Zhao could not possibly mean her harm, she told herself; so though the present state was hard to endure, this was surely the prelude to her breakthrough!
Time slipped away, minute by second, from morning until noon. Qiu Lingshan's strength rose with every passing instant, until at last she felt she could endure no more — the true qi in her had saturated to the limit! She was about to cry out when, the next instant, her body seemed to detonate, a tremendous "boom" — and what followed was an exhilaration beyond anything she had ever known!
It was just like that instant in the dungeon; it sent Qiu Lingshan's whole being soaring clear into the sky!
"Ah—" Qiu Lingshan could not help letting out a moan of pleasure!
She had broken through — truly broken through!
Yes; she was now an expert at the peak of the late Yellow Stage!
Qiu Lingshan would never have imagined it: only a few days ago she had broken through to the late Yellow Stage, and today she was already at the peak of the late Yellow Stage! That rate of leveling up was a little too terrifying, wasn't it?
Qiu Lingshan wanted to thank Wei Zhao, but she abruptly realized that his transmission of true qi did not seem to have stopped — it was still flowing into her body in an unbroken stream!
Surely not? Qiu Lingshan started in bewilderment. Did Wei Zhao mean to help her climb yet another step?
Qiu Lingshan was stunned; the present situation had utterly exceeded her expectations. Did Wei Zhao not need to rest at all?
But Wei Zhao said nothing, and Qiu Lingshan did not like to press him with questions; all she could do was silently continue running the Song family's inner-art mantra, absorbing the true qi he transmitted to her!
Two hours later, Qiu Lingshan could scarcely believe the fact before her eyes!
She had actually touched the barrier of the Profound Stage!
Was she about to break through again?
Was she about to become a Profound Stage expert?
Qiu Lingshan could hardly bear to imagine it. She longed to raise her hands and cheer!
A Profound Stage expert — that was the lifelong dream of so many people!
Stepping from the Yellow Stage into the Profound Stage meant not merely a qualitative leap in strength but a corresponding lengthening of life as well. And with true qi shielding her body, ordinary blades and spears could no longer do a thing to her!
For Qiu Lingshan, this was nothing short of the thing she had dreamed of all her life!
But Qiu Lingshan's excitement did not last long; it was cut abruptly short.
The true qi Wei Zhao was sending her suddenly stopped the moment she touched the barrier of the Profound Stage!
That is to say, Qiu Lingshan remained at the strength of the peak of the late Yellow Stage — only now it was the great perfection of that peak, one step away from the Profound Stage. But that one step was not so easy to take!
Wei Zhao slowly opened his eyes, showing no surprise at all that she had again stopped at the peak of the late Yellow Stage. It seemed that so long as he himself had not broken through to the Earth Stage, he could not raise anyone else's strength to the Profound Stage!
Even so, Wei Zhao was reasonably satisfied — this was still far better than what others could do. Though the experts he produced were of little practical use to him personally, to outsiders they were frankly earth-shaking!
"The enhancement is complete. Feel it for yourself," Wei Zhao said lightly. "You should be at the peak of the late Yellow Stage now."
"Ah!" Qiu Lingshan snapped out of her shock in an instant. Was it already over? She felt a faint disappointment that Wei Zhao had not raised her to the early Profound Stage — but by now she was already quite content! One should know contentment; one must not be insatiable.
