Chapter 706: One year (2) (1/2)

Shun Long's way involved the 'immortal-grade' cultivation techniques that Shun Long had given to Bai Longtian and the rest.

Of course, Liu Mei herself had no need to absorb qi, and she could naturally reach the peak of the Nascent Soul just by killing other cultivators and absorbing their energy.

However, Liu Mei had also found out that she couldn't do that too recklessly, or the negative effects of the 'Blood Absorption art' would probably start affecting her.

Thankfully, Shun Long was already prepared about this and wasn't planning to let Liu Mei be affected by the Blood Absorption art.

The melodious sound of a guqin would often fill the room, immediately expelling any negative emotions that tried to bubble inside Liu Mei along with the blood energy that she had absorbed and slowly influence her personality.

With Shun Long's guqin and as long as Liu Mei didn't go overboard, the 'Blood Absorption art' was a miraculous cultivation technique with no drawbacks!

As for Jiang Chen, Xingyi, and Bai Longtian, now that they all had unique immortal-grade cultivation techniques as well, reaching the peak of the Nascent Soul within a single year wasn't an issue for them.

But Shun Long knew that just that by itself wasn't going to be enough.

He knew that even if he, and Jiang Chen and the rest, all reached the peak of the Nascent Soul within the next year, they would still be unable to breakthrough to the Dao King realm even if they went to the King's Palace with the Grand Elder.

After all, there were 3 things that one had to fulfill before even thinking of breaking through to become a Dao King.

Not only did a person's cultivation needed to reach the peak of rank 9 in the Nascent Soul, but their comprehension of their Dao as well, along with the quality of their soul had to have reached that level.

Shun Long knew that even if they all reached the peak of rank 9 in the Nascent Soul within a year, in reality, they had simply been cultivating for far too short of a duration.

Compared to the other outer court disciples of the Holy sect, Shun Long, Jiang Chen, and the rest, were all simply too young.

There was no way that the quality of their souls would reach the peak of the Nascent Soul within a single year.

Even if they were given 10 years, it would still be unlikely that they would reach that level by themselves.

However, Shun Long knew that there was a way to solve this issue.

There was a specific rank 5 medicinal herb that he needed to refine a rare rank 5 pill, called the 'Soul Purifying flower'.

Although Shun Long had plenty of rank 5 medicinal herbs inside his herb garden, he had yet to find even a single rank 5 'Soul Purifying flower' that he needed in order to refine the 'Soul Purifying pill'.

He knew that practically every rank 5 medicinal herb that could affect a cultivator's soul was considered extremely rare even in the central region, and would be sought after by other Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
