Luo Xia and Hao Wenxi didn’t hesitate at all, stretching out their hands one after another, taking a Pseudo-True Pill each from Qi Tian’s hand. Instead of swallowing it immediately, they simultaneously thanked Qi Tian, saying, “Qi Tian, if we successfully ascend to the Pseudo Core Realm, it is all thanks to your benevolence. We will etch this kindness in our hearts and never forget.”

Qi Tian sighed, saying, “The two Elders should not put it that way. Your ascension to the Pseudo Core Realm essentially cuts off your potential for further growth. I feel guilty about it. If the two of you bear no resentment towards me, I will be satisfied. Ah, there’s no time to spare, let’s not discuss this further. I will now form two Arrays of Spirit Gathering to assist both of you in your breakthrough to the Pseudo Core Realm.”

Qi Tian took out hundreds of middle-grade spirit stones and thousands of low-grade spirit stones, dividing them in half. Prompted by his own guilt and considering the situation they were in, he arranged two Arrays of Spirit Gathering of superior grades. He hoped that even after Luo Xia and Hao Wenxi managed to breakthrough to the Pseudo Core Realm, they would be able to advance a bit further, to raise their power level a notch. This was the last effort he could make for the two of them and for the Imperial Master Mansion.

Although Luo Xia and Hao Wenxi were surprised that Qi Tian was able to bring out so many middle-grade spirit stones, when they thought about Qi Tian possessing four Pseudo-True Pills, it seemed more acceptable. After thanking Qi Tian, they each step into an Array of Spirit Gathering and began their breakthrough by taking the Pseudo-True Pill as Qi Tian directed.

Although Luo Xia and Hao Wenxi were only at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, they had already met the criteria to take the Pseudo-True Pill without needing to worry about having an insufficient foundation. It would be a great challenge for a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Peak or Half-step Golden Core to take the Pill. By that point, they’d feel they would ascend to the Gold Core Stage with just a little more hard work. They would only swallow the Pseudo-True Pill if they had no other choice. For instance, Ape King Sun Xiaotian only took the Pill when he was left with no alternatives.

It was due to this predicament that the Pseudo-True Pill, ever since its introduction, was aimed at cultivators at the ninth level or even the eighth level of Foundation Establishment. If they saw no hope of ascending to the Gold Core Stage in their lifetime and were not willing to die, they would choose to swallow the Pseudo-True Pill and ascend to the Pseudo Core Realm.

As the two elders of the Imperial Master Mansion, Luo Xia and Hao Wenxi had a solid foundation. With the Arrays of Spirit Gathering arranged by Qi Tian, their breakthrough went smoothly without any obstacle.

Luo Xia was the first to complete the breakthrough. Before he could open his eyes, Qi Tian spoke, “Elder Luo, don’t stop now. This is your last opportunity to elevate your power. There’s a lot of Spirit Qi remaining in the Array. Seize this last chance and absorb as much as you can. Expand your Qi Sea to its limit. Consolidate your Pseudo Core to the greatest extent. Don’t be worried about running out of Spirit Qi. If you need more, I will add more spirit stones. I guaranteed you won’t run out.”

Upon hearing Qi Tian’s words, Luo Xia immediately seized the opportunity and inhaled as much Spirit Qi into his Qi Sea as possible. However, he found that after his breakthrough to the Pseudo Core Realm, the exchange between his Qi Sea and the exterior had ceased, as if his vehicle was trapped in the mud. Regardless of his efforts, it was extremely hard to move even a little bit. What troubled Luo Xia even more was that his Qi Sea seemed to solidify. Each time he tried to absorb Spirit Qi from the exterior, he experienced piercing pain.

Despite this, Luo Xia dared not stop, just as Qi Tian had said. This was his last opportunity to increase his power. Any laxity this time would deny him future opportunities to upgrade, regardless of his ambition.

Seeing Luo Xia frowning deeply and breaking out in a cold sweat from the intense pain, Qi Tian sighed. He wanted to help but didn’t know how. Suddenly, an idea flashed in Qi Tian’s mind. When he practiced cultivation, he always operated the Heavenly Dao Engine. With the engine’s help, his cultivation was like taking a rocket ride – quick and with a solid foundation. He wondered if the Heavenly Dao Engine could also help Luo Xia.

Qi Tian decided to give it a try. To put it bluntly, since the moment Luo Xia made the breakthrough, his upper limit of power was basically set and no matter how hard he tried, the room for improvement was extremely limited. Even if he was disturbed by Qi Tian, the loss would be very slight. However, if the attempt succeeded, the benefits for Luo Xia would be substantial.

Having made up his mind, Qi Tian placed his hand on Luo Xia’s back, trying to stimulate Luo Xia’s almost solidified Qi Sea with the Heavenly Dao Engine.

As the power of the Heavenly Dao Engine was transmitted through Qi Tian’s palm into Luo Xia’s Qi Sea, the latter seemed to have been nudged by a ferocious beast, making it spin again even though it was extremely difficult. However, this didn’t come without a price. The fuel consumption of the Heavenly Dao Engine more than doubled compared to when Qi Tian used it himself. Moreover, the pain that Luo Xia suffered also multiplied significantly. It was like trying to turn a nut that was almost rusted solid. The nut was likely to lose its threads and yet unable to move a bit. In this process, one could imagine how much the nut had been tormented. Now, Luo Xia was that nut.
