As he silently observed the state of his Internal Energy, he accidentally made an observation, of which he could not convince himself.

Two days ago, his Internal Energy was at the peak of the sixth layer and was touching the bottleneck. Generally speaking, before attaining the next layer, his Internal Energy would strictly remain within this realm, and regardless of how he cultivated, it will not increase a single bit.

However, He Yiming discovered that his Internal Energy had slightly increased compared to when he cultivated yesterday. But, he didn’t sense any of the two of his cultivation techniques attaining the seventh layer.

He Yiming bitterly smiled. He wasn’t even sure if this truly was the case. Perhaps this was just his sweet expectation, when in truth, his Internal Energy had not increased at all.

After a bit of thinking, his eyes suddenly s.h.i.+ned. The Internal Energy inside his body once again surged and began to circulate according to the course of Primordial Energy; the technique he was most familiar with.

Just after a short while, a scorching hot portion of his Internal Energy had already completed circulating through the familiar course of the sixth layer. This was the result of his recent six months of hard work.

Previously, at this point, He Yiming would stop on his own accord. He knew that after this was the unfamiliar course of the seventh layer. Even when he’d tried to attack the bottleneck two days ago, it seemed akin to a lofty mountain. He’d absolutely no chance of the breakthrough.

However, what about this time?

He Yiming, without the slightest hesitation, concentrated this portion of Internal Energy and rushed it fearlessly, as if looking calmly at the death, towards the bottleneck of the sixth layer

The Internal energy stopped at the entrance of the bottleneck. The bottleneck still seemed impenetrable like an iron wall. However, He Yiming was not discouraged. He could tell that the exhaustion of his Internal Energy’s power after reaching up to this point differed in comparison with the previous times. To his surprise, he felt as though he still had some energy left.

(Tl: This energy is not Internal Energy. This is general energy. Basically, he felt like he still had, energy/power/strength, remaining to perform some other task.)

Immediately, all the Internal Energy in his body berserkly rushed towards this location, while the coming Internal Energy at the same time.

When all the Internal Energy in his body was concentrated at a single point, that towering sixth layer’s wall eventually loosened. Especially, after the last bit of the Internal Energy entered within, seeming as though the last straw pressing down the camel’s back, this bottleneck, that had frustrated him to no extent, completely fell apart

Along with an apparent echo of a tinkling sound in his ears, the powerful Internal Energy, like a water rus.h.i.+ng out of a broken dam, flooded through and began circulating through the course of Primordial Energy’s seventh layer like a hot knife cutting through b.u.t.ter.

After one complete circulation through the seventh layer’s course, He Yiming restrained his Internal Energy and slowly withdrew it back into his Dantian.

He slowly opened his eyes, which had an ecstatic expression that couldn’t be put into words.

He truly had advanced to the seventh layer. Furthermore, the process of breakthrough had given him a surprise. Since he could advance two layers by cultivating two new Internal Energy technique, what about the next ranks?

At this instant, He Yiming was looking at a smooth road ahead him. His future path was, unconditionally, a huge road that was being illuminated in a golden radiance.

He took in a deep breath and forced down the ecstasy in his heart.

Half an hour later, he once again circulated his Internal Energy and began to attack the Ripple technique’s seventh layer. This time’s result caused him to be unable to contain his joy.

When his Internal Energy had arrived at the course of Ripple technique’s seventh layer, it had split opened the bottleneck with almost no effort and had automatically entered the course of Ripple technique’s seventh layer.

He’d to exert so much effort while attacking Primordial Energy’s seventh layer. He had to acc.u.mulate his entire Internal Energy before attacking the bottleneck. However, when one of his primary technique advanced, apparently, the advancement in the other technique became natural and just.

However, He Yiming knew that this was not natural and just in any way.

Not to mention Primordial Energy and Ripple technique were two differently attributed techniques, such a phenomenon was absolutely impossible to occur even among two techniques of same attributes.

Eventually, he discarded all the questions out of his mind.

As long as he could advance, he didn’t need to care much about these things. For these matters which were far beyond his comprehension, He Yiming decided to ignore them. From his perspective, this bizarre transformation had nothing but numerous advantages.
