Chapter 784: False 3rd level of Heavenly Core Realm!

"What abundant spiritual qi."

Upon entering the Heavenly Heart Dojo, even though none of them were ordinary people with shallow experience, they all revealed shocked expressions.

Even Huang Tianlin was taken aback.

The spiritual qi within the Heavenly Heart Dojo was so abundant that it had condensed into a sea of spiritual qi in the air. Moreover, it was extremely pure. With a casual breath, one did not even need to refine it carefully before a significant amount of essence qi increased within the body.

Furthermore, the power of laws here seemed different from the outside world.

Comprehending the Martial Dao was much easier.

Many problems that had normally confused them were suddenly resolved, with answers emerging in their minds on their own.

Powerful essence qi overflowed like mist from several contestants, as if they were on the verge of breaking through to the Spirit Manifestation Realm.

"Not good."

At this, the expressions of those cultivators changed drastically.

They hurriedly used all their strength to suppress their cultivation. Only after a long while did they finally suppress the restless signs of breakthrough.

"That was close."

After finally suppressing the signs of breakthrough, lingering fear appeared on their faces.

At the same time, the other cultivators also reacted.

To them, the Heavenly Heart Dojo was both an opportunity and a test.

They had to seize this rare chance to cultivate and improve their strength, but they also had to be careful to suppress their cultivation and avoid breaking through to the Spirit Manifestation Realm.

In fact, with their talent, breaking through to the Spirit Manifestation Realm was not difficult.

The reason they had not broken through was precisely for this Northern Territory Heaven’s Chosen Gathering.

If they broke through at this time, they would automatically lose their final eligibility to compete, which would be a loss greater than any gain.

"I see."

Li Yun also realized this.

However, while this place was both an opportunity and a test for others, to him, it was a pure opportunity.

Even if he broke through, he would only reach the 3rd level of Heavenly Core Realm. He did not need to worry about being disqualified.

"Here, I can try to break through to the 3rd level of Heavenly Core Realm and completely resolve this Evil Qi Vortex."

Li Yun pondered silently.

In the Heavenly Heart Dojo, the spiritual qi was so abundant that it formed a sea. It could almost be called inexhaustible.

He could use this environment to completely eliminate the hidden danger of the Evil Qi Vortex.

"Let us begin."

Immediately, he found a spot and sat down cross-legged, circulating his cultivation method.

Suddenly, endless heaven and earth spiritual qi surged frantically toward his body.

The surging spiritual qi formed a storm around Li Yun and rapidly entered his body.

Supported by the massive amount of spiritual qi, Li Yun’s chaos qi was almost overflowing in only half an hour, reaching the edge of a breakthrough.

Not only that, but during this process, the Evil Qi Vortex within his body was almost completely worn away, with only a tiny bit of residue remaining.

Boom!

But at that moment, a sudden change occurred.

That bit of residual evil qi seemed to sense the crisis of its own destruction and launched a final counterattack. Although its quantity was small, its quality was terrifying. A wisp of extremely condensed evil qi exploded completely within Li Yun’s body.

"Not good."

Li Yun’s expression changed drastically.

He nearly lost control of his chaos qi and almost suffered qi deviation, which would have sent him into eternal damnation.

Fortunately, at the final moment, he managed to control his chaos qi in time.

He did not dare to be careless. He immediately guided the surging spiritual qi toward that final wisp of evil qi, attempting to completely eliminate it.

However, the tenacity of this final wisp of evil qi exceeded Li Yun’s imagination.

In the end, he suppressed it, but he was still unable to eliminate it.

"What a pity."

He shook his head.

Originally, he had been about to break through to the 3rd level of Heavenly Core Realm. But because of this final wisp of evil qi, his breakthrough had been forcibly stalled.

However, although he had not successfully broken through, he could be considered to have one foot across the threshold of the 3rd level of Heavenly Core Realm.

There was actually no major difference between his current state and the true 3rd level of Heavenly Core Realm.

Moreover, under this situation, if he could eliminate the final wisp of evil qi and break through to the 3rd level of Heavenly Core Realm, he would immediately reach the major accomplishment stage of the 3rd level of Heavenly Core Realm.

"Forget it. It seems I will have to find another method."

Li Yun shook his head and stopped thinking about these distracting matters.

Since it was impossible to make any further breakthrough in his cultivation realm before the Ranking Matches began, his next point of improvement would naturally be martial skills.

After experiencing several battles in the Group Stage and watching fights between other geniuses, he had gained some inspiration.

In the Heavenly Heart Dojo, comprehending the Martial Dao was also much easier than in the outside world.

While there was still time, he could make some improvements in this regard.

His three souls began studying different directions.

His main soul focused on Sword Control Art.

His two split souls studied the Fast and Slow Sword techniques and Five Elements Wind and Thunder Sword respectively.

Although his realm had not truly broken through due to the final wisp of evil qi, his soul strength had increased significantly. It had become enough for him to control eighteen hundred precious swords simultaneously.

Especially within the environment of the Heavenly Heart Dojo, his cultivation speed was startlingly fast. In only one day, he could already proficiently control eighteen hundred Violet Thunder Swords.

Additionally, his progress with the Fast and Slow Sword techniques was also substantial.

If he had previously fused only ten percent of the Mountain River Sword Art, then now, the degree of fusion had reached twenty percent.

This directly doubled the power of his Fast and Slow Sword techniques.

In comparison, the progress of Five Elements Wind and Thunder Sword seemed negligible.

Although there was some improvement, the magnitude was not large.
