Chapter 701 Reaching the Nascent Soul Realm

He was not interested in the antiques appraisal now. What he was anxious about was to get the Upper Level Spirit Stones as soon as possible.

Chen Dongxu said, “Of course.”

At present, all these bronze heads of the 12 Chinese Zodiacs given by Qin Haodong, regardless of whether they were genuine or not, were of great cultural and economic value.

Moreover, his request was very simple. He just wanted to have a look and it was not a big deal. Therefore, Chen Dongxu directly made the decision and led him to the hall where the bronze heads of the 12 Chinese Zodiac were exhibited.

For the past few days, the exhibition hall where the cultural relics were displayed had not been open to the public. The hall was quiet and there was no one around.

Chen Dongxu instructed the staff to open the security locks, one by one. Then he took out the bronze heads and showed them to Qin Haodong.

At present, there were a total of eight bronze heads stored in the Huaxia Museum. One sheep’s head had been donated by him and the cow’s head and the rabbit’s head were fake. Therefore, he did not bother to look at them. Instead, he focused on the remaining five bronze heads.

Using the Spirit to scan the items, Qin Haodong breathed a sigh of relief. The five bronze heads of the 12 Chinese Zodiac were all sealed, which meant that there were Upper Level Spirit Stones hidden in them.

He secretly set up an illusion. In the eyes of Chen Dongxu and the others, he appeared to be stroking these copper heads. In reality, he had secretly unlocked the seals and taken the Upper Level Spirit Stones inside.

After taking all the Upper Level Spirit Stones, he left the museum hurriedly with Ye Qing.

Chen Dongxu was very puzzled. He did not expect that Qin Haodong would donate six bronze heads of the 12 Chinese Zodiac and then spend only a few minutes to look at the others.

Qin Haodong did not care about that at all. He already had nine Upper Level Spirit Stones, which were enough for him to break through the Late-stage of the Gold Core and cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm.

He asked Ye Qing to go back to the Tang Sect and he then rushed out of the city.

He would make a pretty big racket once he reached the Yuan Ying Stage. He did not want to disturb others with his promotion this time, so he chose a suitable place.

Soon, he went out of the city and came to the foot of a small mountain. The Spiritual Qi here was much richer than that in other places. It was Shenbao Mountain, which Yan Feifei had used to break through last time.

When he arrived at the peak of Shenbao Mountain, the dead branches and trees from their last breakthrough were still there.

First, he set up a defensive formation around the top of the mountain. Then, he chose a clean place to sit cross-legged and began to break through.

For safety’s sake, Qin Haodong took out all the nine Upper Level Spirit Stones and placed them around his body. Then he ran the Gold Core in his dantian and began to absorb the Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Stones.

At this moment, the Gold Core in his dantian was as big as an egg. It shone with a dazzling golden light, like a rare treasure.

As the Gold Core rotated slowly, the surrounding Spiritual Qi immediately poured into his body, like hundreds of rivers flowing in. Finally, it was absorbed by the Gold Core.

Qin Haodong used to be a cultivator at Tribulation Realm, so there was no problem with the consolidation of his foundation and perception. He only needed to absorb a large amount of Spiritual Qi.

About an hour later, the first Upper Level Spiritual Stone was reduced to powder, followed by the second and third.

When the fourth Upper Level Spirit Stone was broken, Qin Haodong’s Gold Core was completely filled with Spiritual Qi. It had swelled to its maximum limit and could no longer absorb any more Qi. The huge saturated feeling was like a balloon that was full of air.

Qin Haodong had experienced the breaking into the Nascent Soul Realm once before. He did not stop at all and continued to absorb the Spiritual Qi frantically.

At this moment, a huge vortex of Spiritual Qi formed on the top of Shenbao Mountain. It was not only the Spiritual Qi emitted by the Upper Level Spiritual Stones, but the surrounding Spiritual Qi was also insanely absorbed by him.

After a long time, suddenly there was a crisp sound in his mind and the Gold Core in his dantian began to crack slowly.

At the same time, the clouds within a radius of five kilometers suddenly changed. The Qi of Heaven and Earth seemed to have lost control and became extremely violent. For a short while, gusts of wind blew, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled.

Fortunately, the location of Shenbao Mountain was remote, so it did not create too much of a disturbance. If this was the imperial capital, the entire city would definitely be in an uproar.

The breakthrough had reached a critical moment. Qin Haodong did not care about it at all and continued to absorb the Spiritual Qi outside.

As the Spiritual Qi continued to flow in, the crack became bigger. Finally, with a bang, the Gold Core cracked completely. The golden shells that fell off turned into golden mist, filling the whole dantian in an instant.

A baby about the size of a fist appeared vaguely in the golden mist. The baby’s eyes and eyebrows were well defined and his limbs were complete. Except for his small body, he was not much different from a normal baby.

The baby slowly opened his eyes and took a deep breath. The surrounding Spiritual Qi was instantly absorbed by him.

The Upper Level Spirit Stones that Qin Haodong had placed around made a series of crackling sounds. The Spiritual Qi was sucked clean and even the Spiritual Qi around Shenbao Mountain was instantly absorbed.

After absorbing so much Spiritual Qi, the baby closed his eyes in satisfaction and his whole body grew a little bit bigger than before.

“It’s done!”

Qin Haodong was ecstatic. He slowly opened his eyes. After his rebirth, he finally had his Nascent Soul again.

Before reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, both the cultivators at the Gold Core Realm and at the level nine of Supreme Power Realm could absorb the Qi between heaven and earth for their own use. But once they broke into the Nascent Soul Realm, they could directly control the Qi between heaven and earth and their power would be increased by a hundred times or more.

In the same level, the ability of a master at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm to control the Qi of Heaven and Earth was much stronger than that of a Saint at the early stage. With his current cultivation, it could be said that he was invincible at this cultivation level.

The moment he reached the Nascent Soul Realm, the Qi of Heaven and Earth around him calmed down again and everything returned to what it was before.

At this time, a full moon had risen from the horizon. It seemed that it took him more than half a day to break through this time and it was already late at night.

Qin Haodong slowly stood up. With a thought, a golden sword appeared in front of him. It was the Xuan Yuan Sword.

Xuan Yuan Sword was originally a flying sword. Its size could be increased or decreased under the control of his Spirit. At this time, it was about two meters long and half a foot wide. It looked majestic and lethal.

Qin Haodong lifted his foot and stepped forward gently. He stood directly on the Xuanyuan Sword. His whole body flew up in an instant and his speed was as fast as a meteor’s.

It had been a long time since he had experienced such a pleasant feeling of riding on a sword and flying. So he rode on the Xuan Yuan Sword and flew quickly around the capital.

Due to the presence of the Alien Demon, he did not want to broadcast the news of his breakthrough, so he did not enter the capital. Instead, he flew around the periphery to express the joy in his heart.

After the golden sword circled around the capital three times, he was ready to put away his flying sword and rush back to the Tang Sect. Suddenly, his mind shifted and he landed in a small forest, under his feet.

This was a desolate forest, about 20 miles away from the outskirts of the capital. At this moment, a woman covered in blood and dressed in ragged clothes, was leaning against a small tree. She was looking angrily at a man in black in front of her.

“Little beauty Kim Jihyun, why don’t you run away?” The man in black shouted arrogantly, “You are a warrior at the Covert Power Realm and you can still run so far after being hit by me. I’m really curious.”

The wounded woman was Kim Jihyun. She looked at the man in black in front of her and scolded angrily, “Kim Tonghae, you’ve betrayed your ancestors. In order to please Cha Taehang, you betrayed our entire family. You will definitely die in your boots.”

“It’s you who will die. Now, you’re the only one left in the family.” Speaking of this, Kim Tonghae laughed arrogantly. “What’s wrong with relying on the Master Fist Saint?”

“He has already promoted me to the first level of supreme power realm and my cultivation will be higher in the future. If I stay in the Kim family, I will only be part of the family. How many benefits can I get? Not only will I have to work for your direct descendants, but will also be despised by you.”

“Bastard. You’re ungrateful…” Kim Jihyun was obviously extremely angry and she kept cursing. Unfortunately, she was seriously injured now and her breath was not strong enough. She did not even have the momentum to scold him.

“If it were not for our family, how are you able to stand here today?”

“Ha… Ha… Ha… Ha… You’re the loser. What’s the point of saying these things to me?” After laughing wildly, he said, “Little girl, if you hand over the thing that the Fist Saint wants, I can spare your life. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being cruel!”

After he spoke, his expression became extremely ferocious, as if he could kill Kim Jihyun at any time.

“Bah! Stop dreaming. I won’t give it to you even if I die!”

Kim Jihyun was leaning against a tree at this moment. She was so weak that she had no strength left, but her eyes were firm and showed no signs of compromise.

Kim Tonghae’s expression changed instantly and he said with a lewd smile, “Well, you’re tough. But if you don’t hand it over, I’ll search for it myself.”

Kim Jihyun roared angrily, “How dare you!”

“Whether I dare or not, you’ll know immediately.”

After saying that, he reached out his big hairy hand to search Kim Jihyun’s chest. After grabbing her bra, he tore it off.

Seeing that she was about to be humiliated, Kim Jihyun was furious. However, she was seriously injured and fainted in an instant.

At the same time, a golden light passed through Kim Tonghae’s head like a meteor.

There was still a lewd smile on his face, but his body froze instantly. Then he fell to the ground with a plop. There was no trace of any life in him at all.

Qin Haodong put away the Xuan Yuan Sword, stepped in front of Kim Jihyun and kicked the body away.

Kim Jihyun was a good girl. Of course, Qin Haodong could not watch her being humiliated, so he killed Kim Tonghae.

He squatted and put his hand on Kim Jihyun’s pulse, frowning slightly.

This little girl was seriously hurt. Her viscera had been damaged and she had been on the run continuously, which had taken a serious toll on her life. It was very difficult for him to cure her with his ability.

He took out the silver needles from his pocket and first helped to stabilize Kim Jihyun’s condition with Green Wood Genuine Qi. Then he picked her up, stepped on the Xuan Yuan Sword and flew quickly toward the capital.

Qin Haodong landed in the courtyard of the Tang Sect. He put the Xuan Yuan Sword away, kicked open Ma Wenzhuo’s door and walked in.

Ma Wenzhuo was sitting in front of the computer and chatting happily with a girl. When he heard the door being kicked open, he was shocked. When he turned around and saw Qin Haodong, he said discontentedly, “It’s late at night. What if you scared my girl away?”

“That’s all fake. How do you know if the other party isn’t a strong man?” Qin Haodong came in with Kim Jihyun in his arms. “I’ll give you a real chance to save a beauty.”

“What do you mean?” Only then did Ma Wenzhuo notice Kim Jihyun, who was covered in blood and he shouted, “Did you take advantage of her? Aren’t you a little too cruel?”

Qin Haodong ignored his nonsense and put her on his bed. Ma Wenzhuo followed him. Only then did he realize that it was Kim Jihyun. He said in surprise, “Isn’t this the little girl from Koryo? Why is she so seriously injured?”

Qin Haodong said, “She was running away from a pursuer. I happened to pass by and saved her. She is seriously injured now. I’ll leave her to you. As long as you can save her, I guess you will be able to say goodbye to the single life soon.”
