Chapter 735: Breakthrough bottleneck

At this moment, Leng Xuan seemed to sense the fierce gaze of Li Mengjie and quickly turned his head away. Nonetheless, Li Mengjie’s glare felt like thorns in his back, making him as restless as if sitting on pins and needles. So, pretending to be calm, he coughed and said, "It’s getting late, I’m going to sleep now. You all should also rest early." After speaking, he fled back to his room as if escaping.

After closing the door to his room, he patted his forehead, took a long breath, and kept telling himself that this time he was doomed. Knowing Li Mengjie, she was certain to make him agree to some unfair terms, and he would never dare to refuse. Otherwise, with Li Mengjie’s temperament, who knows what she might do to tease him.

Seeing Leng Xuan run away, Li Mengjie huffed with dissatisfaction. Just as Leng Xuan predicted, she began pondering how to make Leng Xuan compensate her.

Leng Xuan sat cross-legged on the ____, ready to begin his cultivation. But every time he closed his eyes, the image of Li Mengjie’s voluptuous softness involuntarily surfaced in his mind, preventing him from calming his heart. Shaking his head vigorously, he took a deep breath and tried hard to eliminate these distracting thoughts. With even and steady inhalation and exhalation, his mind gradually calmed down, entering a deep meditative state.

After several cycles of Grand Circulation, Leng Xuan felt the True Qi in his Dantian was brimming and ready to break through at any moment, which filled him with joy. These days, due to the numerous lurking threats, he had invested a lot of effort and time into his cultivation. With the help of Jiuyang Divine Art, his cultivation pace was indeed unimaginably swift. From reaching Mid-Stage Fusion not long ago, he had once again hit a bottleneck, just one step away from the Later Fusion Stage.

He circulated his True Qi and opened his Six Senses until deep into the night, waiting until Li Mengjie and the others had gone to rest before he started cultivating without worry. Because he planned to take advantage of this night to try and break through the bottleneck, any disturbance during this process could not be tolerated, as it could result in complete failure or even deviate into madness, consequences too dreadful to contemplate.

He exhaled and started running the Jiuyang Divine Art with all his might to accumulate sufficient True Qi before attempting to smash through the bottleneck. With the activation of Jiuyang Divine Art, a faint red glow emerged all over his body, as if wrapped in red silk.

Meanwhile, with him at the center, nature’s spiritual energy in the room began to spin rapidly, surging into his body. At this moment, his body seemed like an enormous container, drawing in this spiritual energy. As time slowly passed, the fluctuation of nature’s spiritual energy extended beyond the confines of the room, even the villa outside was influenced, madly converging upon him. It was fortunate that the guards outside were all ordinary people who didn’t notice this abnormality. Otherwise, if a cultivator were to see this, they would be utterly shocked. In a world starved of spiritual energy, nobody else could draw spiritual power in such a terrifying manner.

As he absorbed nature’s spiritual energy, the red light on Leng Xuan’s body became even more intense. When this aura reached its limit, he finally stopped the absorption of spiritual energy. At this moment, his body had transformed the energy into dense True Qi, enough to challenge and smash the bottleneck.
