Chapter 21: Refining Qi 5 heavy

Meng Zhang's feelings were right, and he followed his instincts, making the right decision at a critical moment.

His true qi operated at full power, forcefully penetrating through unfamiliar meridians. Within Meng Zhang's body, he seemed to hear a series of faint sounds. The once stagnant true qi became smooth and unobstructed.

Meng Zhang felt a sense of relief as his Cultivation Base finally broke through to the fifth level of Refining Qi. During the Refining Qi stage, cultivators primarily accumulated true qi to permeate their entire bodies and meridians. The attributes of true qi varied depending on the cultivation method, and different techniques had distinct sequences to traverse the meridians throughout the body.

Previously, due to the lack of the Lesser Yang Qi Art, Meng Zhang was unaware of some of the cultivation routes and had to try them out slowly. Now, thanks to the gains from the Trial Ground, he filled in the gaps in his cultivation method. With his excellent aptitude, he faced no more bottlenecks or obstacles in his Refining Qi stage. The only requirement was to ensure a sufficient supply of cultivation resources to accumulate true qi rapidly.

Although breaking through to the fifth level of Refining Qi was a natural progression, Meng Zhang had anticipated it a few days earlier. Nonetheless, breaking through a bottleneck that had troubled him for a long time filled him with joy, and he indulged himself for a while.

As a transmigrator, Meng Zhang had always been known for his early intelligence. Even in Taiyi Sect, where his aptitude surpassed everyone else, his diligence in cultivation far exceeded others. Since entering Taiyi Sect to cultivate, he rarely had time to rest. Especially after becoming the Taiyi Sect Sect Master, he had even more responsibilities. Even in his leisure time after cultivation, he had to record scrolls and organize the Hidden Scripture Pavilion.

Rarely having a chance to steal a half-day of leisure, Meng Zhang rode on his wind chasing horse, leaving the Taiyi Sect's base, galloping around the surroundings. Although he intended to relax, some matters weighed heavily on his mind.

His senior brother, Fang Meng, leaving the sect with others, was something Meng Zhang did not bother to investigate. However, when he saw Fang Meng associating with Zhao Family's members, it angered him. Zhao Family had always harbored ill intentions towards Taiyi Sect and often caused trouble. Over the years, Taiyi Sect had suffered many hardships, and it was almost reduced to an empty shell.

Among the many vassal families in Twin Success Valley, Zhao Family was one of the more powerful ones. With over 200 years of history, they considered themselves as the local natives and viewed Taiyi Sect as outsiders and invaders. Zhao Family's residence was situated on a Second Rank spirit vein, and they possessed hundreds of acres of spirit fields. Over the years, they had been trying to cultivate a Foundation Building stage cultivator to continue their family's legacy, relentlessly seeking various cultivation resources.

Having Zhao Family as neighbors, Taiyi Sect had long been targeted by them and faced several suppressions. If not for Twin Success Valley's circumstances, Zhao Family would likely have swallowed Taiyi Sect whole.

Thinking about how Zhao Family, who had been watching them closely, had recruited Taiyi Sect's traitor and gained more information about the sect, Meng Zhang lost interest in his leisurely ride.

Just as he was about to return, his wind chasing horse suddenly neighed loudly and became extremely restless. Meng Zhang, unprepared for this sudden change, nearly fell off the horse but managed to steady himself in time. He patted the horse's head, trying to calm it down, while carefully observing the surroundings for any anomalies.

Meng Zhang had chosen this particular wind chasing horse among the three because of its majestic appearance and pure white coat without a single trace of other colors. Additionally, it was the fastest and highly alert. It hadn't become dull due to human domestication.

Having a hunch about the situation, Meng Zhang became cautious. He surveyed the vast desert and ruled out any immediate dangers from the surroundings. Since the sky was clear and there were no abnormalities, he turned his attention to the ground.

In the Cultivation World, various escape techniques were prioritized by cultivators due to their magical effects. Especially in the Endless Sea of Sand, earth-based escape techniques were common and practical for both pursuit and escape. Generally, cultivators with a Refining Qi stage Cultivation Base could barely grasp the basics of escape techniques, but to truly master them, they needed a Foundation Building stage Cultivation Base.

Not having learned any earth-based escape techniques yet, Meng Zhang couldn't delve deep underground or make contact with enemies from below. In the past, the cautious Meng Zhang might have turned and fled, as he could easily escape the enemy on his wind chasing horse. However, his current mood urged him to vent his frustration, and besides, he was only about fifty miles away from Sweetwater Oasis.

Since the distance wasn't far and there might be dangerous enemies nearby, posing a threat to ordinary mortals at Sweetwater Oasis, he decided to confront the unknown enemies. Meng Zhang dismounted the horse and placed his palms on the ground, activating the earthshaking technique. A powerful vibration spread out from his palms, targeting the underground as the main attack.

In the Trial Ground, besides soul arts that could only be used by souls, Meng Zhang also gained many physical techniques that he could perform without relying on soul power. Additionally, the knowledge he obtained included various aspects related to magic, such as reducing casting difficulty, increasing spell power, and decreasing casting consumption.
