Chapter 1153 Taking Root
Besides this, for the place where Chen Yang cultivated himself, several special individuals were arranged.
Luo Xiaohao, the successor of Venerable Queyi, and Ruan Dongjun, the successor of Sword God of the Sword Sect.
Daozhi, the senior disciple of the Daoist school.
These three individuals had only recently reached the Foundation Establishment True Person realm, but their cultivation speed was absolutely among the fastest in the entire Land of Hope.
Chen Yang found it understandable that Luo Xiaohao and Ruan Dongjun could break through so quickly, as they possessed foundations that others could never obtain.
The mysterious and unfathomable cultivation technique of Venerable Queyi was something even Zhou Zeyao envied.
And the legendary Sword God had even founded the Sword Sect and wreaked havoc in the Human Realm.
Chen Yang had even learned indirectly from Wu Min about some of the deeds of the founder of the Sword Sect. The cultivation technique he practiced was not something that could be fully comprehended even at the Core Formation realm.
It was a cultivation technique that guaranteed further progress.
In Chen Yang's eyes, these two would definitely become Core Formation cultivators after this period of cultivation.
As for Daozhi, Chen Yang had not been deeply familiar with this senior disciple of the Daoist school before.
It was only after Dongcang arrived that he gained some understanding.
Although Daozhi bore the title of senior disciple of the Daoist school, he was actually the candidate for the next Celestial Master.
If he were not in the Human Realm now, he might have already inherited the position of Celestial Master.
After all, Daozhi had already begun to take over the affairs of the Celestial Master before.
Even the summoning of the Sword Sect was undertaken by him, a person who was a generation younger, which showed the importance the Daoist school placed on him.
Daozhi's talent was perfectly displayed in the Human Realm.
He was the first to break through to Foundation Establishment, and in the eyes of others, his subsequent breakthroughs were even more remarkable.
While everyone else was generally at the second or third layer of the Foundation Establishment True Person realm, Daozhi had already reached the fifth layer.
After Chen Yang placed a large number of top-grade spirit stones in various cultivation locations, he also entered his own cultivation.
This was the first time Chen Yang had calmly cultivated since reaching the Core Formation realm.
Time ticked by, and the sounds of breakthroughs emanating from the bronze cauldron from time to time served as a spur to everyone.
Chen Yang also used this time to break through to the third layer of the Core Formation realm.
When Chen Yang wanted to progress further, he found himself encountering a bottleneck, a state he had never experienced even during Foundation Establishment or the breakthrough to Core Formation.
However, Chen Yang did not dwell on it and began to help refine the top-grade spirit stones for the various cultivation locations.
Although there would be some loss in directly refining the spiritual energy from the top-grade spirit stones, others could absorb it faster.
Seeing that this method was effective, Chen Yang then took out all the spirit stones in the Tree Mound space.
There was no spiritual energy within the bronze cauldron.
If the inside of the bronze cauldron could be filled with spiritual energy, then their absorption of spiritual energy using spirit stones would definitely yield twice the results with half the effort.
Just as Chen Yang was focused on refining the top-grade spirit stones, Daozhi suddenly appeared before him.
"Do you need any help?" Daozhi asked, looking at the spirit stones Chen Yang was refining with great interest.
It was like poking a water-filled balloon.
The release of spiritual energy was exhilarating and fascinating to watch.
"Hmm? Senior Brother Daozhi doesn't need to continue cultivating?"
After Chen Yang spoke, he sensed that Daozhi's aura was several times stronger than before.
"I can break through to the Core Formation realm once I leave here. It seems I can't break through here."
Chen Yang gasped, and in that instant, he truly understood how powerful Daozhi's talent was.
Ruan Dongjun and Luo Xiaohao had not stopped yet, indicating that they had not reached the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.
These two, despite having a clear path laid out by their predecessors, were not breaking through as quickly as Daozhi...
Was it that their talent was too poor?
Chen Yang did not believe that for a moment!
In other cultivation spots, these two were already the fastest.
It could only be said that Daozhi's cultivation speed was terrifyingly fast.
"So fast!"
In response to Chen Yang's praise, Daozhi showed a wry smile. "Don't flatter me. Ever since I came to the Human Realm, except for the initial difficulties, I've basically been cultivating every day.
"I've been constantly absorbing the spiritual energy from top-grade spirit stones. If others had this treatment, their breakthrough speed wouldn't be much slower than mine.
"Take you, for example... You have so many things to do every day, yet you can still find time to cultivate and successfully break through to the Core Formation realm."
Just as Chen Yang marveled at Daozhi's talent, Daozhi himself held Chen Yang in high esteem.
He had less cultivation time than everyone else, yet he was at the highest realm.
Last time, facing the Lord of Yaogu City, it was said that Chen Yang, at the first layer of Core Formation, could fight on par with him.
If Chen Yang weren't standing right in front of him, he would have thought these stories were fantastical.
Daozhi sat beside Chen Yang and, as he released the spiritual energy from the top-grade spirit stones, he felt a refreshing gust of wind.
If there was one thing that was not good about this special space they were in, it was the complete lack of life.
Although there were plants on the fragments, they all exuded a sense of twilight and lifelessness. The splashing water from the waterfalls didn't even create ripples.
It was only when the spiritual energy diffused into a breeze that Daozhi felt immense comfort.
If people in the Human Realm knew that these two were using the wind generated by the scattering of top-grade spirit stones to alleviate the monotony of their cultivation, they would surely jump up in outrage.
As the spiritual energy within the bronze cauldron slowly rose, Chen Yang was astonished to notice that the plants on the surrounding fragments seemed to have regained some vitality compared to before.
Even the broken ruins were not as unsightly as before.
Daozhi also noticed this special situation, but he did not ask Chen Yang about the origin of these fragments.
Even the special space they were currently in, Daozhi did not inquire about.
These were definitely Chen Yang's secrets. If it weren't for their cultivation, Chen Yang would likely never have revealed the existence of these things.
Daozhi was rather concerned that with more and more people coming in to cultivate, these secrets of Chen Yang might leak out to some extent.
This was not a good thing!
After conveying his thoughts to Chen Yang, Chen Yang smiled bitterly. "If I cultivated alone, no matter how fast I became, and even if I could confront the Prefect of Yaodu Prefecture head-on, the human race would still be in a weak state.
"This is not our original intention.
"To establish the human race in the Human Realm is!
"And to achieve this state, I alone am not enough. One Core Formation cultivator is not enough, nor are ten. When there are dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of Core Formation cultivators, other forces in the Human Realm will truly tremble."
