Chapter 64 - Breakthrough, National Guardian Level (1/2)

Time flies when one is cultivating, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

During this span of three days, Lu Xuan did not step out of his room. He was cultivating the whole time without stopping, and he only ate his meals after his mother, Liu Wanrong, brought them into his room.

He had completely and utterly closed himself off from the world.

On the afternoon of the third day, Lu Xuan opened his eyes. The Vigor that was originally circling him and the steady stream of air he exhaled from his nostrils all vanished without a trace in an instant.

However, looking closely, one might discover that the Vigor that had surrounded Lu Xuan’s body had become more compact, and almost imperceptibly, had transformed into a different kind of energy—Spiritual Qi.

He had transformed all the Vigor in his body to Spiritual Qi, which was a sign that he had successfully attained Level Seven.

When warriors first started their cultivation, they relied on the energy of the physical body to produce Vigor, but the process was different once one reached Level Seven.

Regular people had no clue how to reach Level Seven because Mental Strength was involved in the process. Through the combination of the physical body’s energy and mental energy, Vigor could be transformed into Spiritual Qi.

Vigor was very tough. Spiritual Qi had both properties of toughness and suppleness without losing any of its raw power, so it was a big overall upgrade.

The power of Spiritual Qi was on a whole other level. For example, it was still possible for a Level Six martial arts legend to be surrounded by an army and whittled down to death.

However, at the Level Seven National Guardian level, the situation was completely different. Even if they were encircled by a huge army of thousands, it would be difficult to take one down.

They could even withstand a hail of gunfire from a machinegun, as the Shield of Vigor formed from the Spiritual Qi shrouding the body’s surface was at least ten times stronger than its Level Six equivalent.

A Level Six martial arts legend could be killed by a rocket, but once one reached the Level Seven National Guardian level, even a rocket had a low chance of being lethal. Unless it was a direct hit, there was absolutely nothing to be afraid of.

Lu Xuan’s power was even more frightening. Compared to a regular Level Seven National Guardian level Cultivator, his strength was much more fearsome. Even if he took a hit head-on from a rocket, he could brush it off like it was nothing.

The Spiritual Qi cultivated from the Taixu Origin Power was enough to defend oneself from the bombing of a rocket.

On the battlefield, one Cultivator of this level could take on an entire army brigade. It was a truly inhuman strength!

Lu Xuan did some stretching, and the joints of his entire body erupted in a series of loud cracks.

“I’ve broken through. What a great feeling!”

At this time, a shocking amount of grime had seeped out of Lu Xuan’s skin. After cleaning himself off while holding his nose from the smell, Lu Xuan left his room. His parents had both already left for work.

Of his two younger sisters, one had gone back to school, and the other had been sent to the kindergarten.

Presently, Lu Xuan was alone in the house.

There and then, Lu Xuan made a hand seal, and very quickly, there was a sound of someone knocking on his main door. Lu Xuan opened the door to his house, seeing Zhang Hongyang standing at the door in a reverent and deferential manner.

Just now, Lu Xuan had commanded Zhang Hongyang to come with his secret methods. There was a master-servant contract binding them, so most of the time, Lu Xuan only needed to think about it to contact Zhang Hongyang.

Of course, with Lu Xuan’s current cultivation, he still could not contact Zhang Hongyang from extreme distances.

However, Zhang Hongyang had been staking out the district for the past few days, and he had rented an apartment nearby to live in.

Hence, when Lu Xuan summoned him, he had quickly rushed over.
