Chapter 125 Initial Stage of Fusion

Just as the gray spiritual energy tightly enveloped Kuang Zheng, the pressure inside the entire cave instantly surged to its peak.

The pressure felt like a heavy mountain, pressing down on her heart.

Ying Yue, who was protecting them from the side, did her best to resist the powerful pressure emanating from the breakthroughs of the two.

The prolonged resistance caused her spiritual energy to be depleted at an alarming rate.

Despite the replenishment from the Spirit Nourishing Pill, he still felt weak all over.

However, she dared not relax in the slightest at this moment.

Because the closer one gets to the breakthrough before reaching the Nascent Soul stage, the less room there is for any disturbance.

Before the Nascent Soul is formed, every breakthrough carries the risk of being invaded by inner demons.

Once a cultivator has cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage, it is as if they have another self.

With the blessing of the Nascent Soul, inner demons generally have little impact on cultivators who are breaking through.

Therefore, all three of them need to be quiet and undisturbed when they are breaking through.

That's why they always have someone protecting them during each breakthrough.

Now that Kuang Zheng and Wu Ren have reached the critical stage of their breakthrough, Ying Yue has had to replenish her spiritual energy several times in order to resist the enormous pressure emanating from them.

Despite the immense pressure she was under, both physically and mentally, she dared not relax for a moment.

Without hesitation, she swallowed the two Spirit Nourishing Pills again.

With the replenishment of the Spirit Nourishing Pill, the spiritual energy that was almost depleted instantly became abundant again.

The feeling of weakness in my body was dispelled once again, but unlike before, the barrier that I had just broken through to the final stage of enlightenment a little over a month ago was now showing signs of loosening.

This discovery filled Ying Yue, who was still under immense pressure, with overwhelming joy.

Her eyes widened as she incredulously felt the wondrous changes taking place within her body.

The thought of her about to achieve another breakthrough made Ying Yue's heart leap into her throat with excitement.

Fortunately, she knew that the most important thing at this moment was to protect her two companions, so she tried her best to suppress her excitement.

So she roused herself and focused her attention on the two who were making a breakthrough.

The two who were breaking through were becoming increasingly powerful.

They were just one step away from the final breakthrough, and now it was the most crucial moment.

The three people who were originally on the same starting line gradually began to show differences.

At the beginning, Wu Ren took the lead and was the first to break through to the Enlightenment stage.

Following this, Kuang Zheng's extraordinary encounter with the white dragon in the Bone-Eating Fly Canyon propelled him forward with unstoppable momentum, achieving breakthroughs one after another.

Ying Yue, although she was the first to break through after entering the Dragon's Nest, is only at the late stage of the Enlightenment Realm so far.

In contrast, Wu Ren and Kuang Zheng have both entered the desirable stage of their romantic relationship.

As a result, the gap that already existed among the three not only did not narrow, but continued to widen.

This was simply unacceptable to Ying Yue, who was always proud and ambitious and always wanted to be the best.

Although she appeared calm and collected on the surface, she was secretly competing with him.

Ying Yue is undoubtedly a rare cultivation prodigy in the world, and her talent is astonishing.

Because of her easily satisfied nature, she devoted very little effort to cultivation.

If it weren't for resolving the issue of her inheritance and keeping up with everyone else, she wouldn't even be willing to put effort into cultivation.

But as she watched the gap between herself and her friends widen, her competitive spirit was ignited.

In order to counteract the immense power unleashed by Wu Ren and Kuang Zheng during their breakthroughs, the rate at which her spiritual energy was consumed far exceeded any previous moment.

Fortunately, there were plenty of Spirit-Nourishing Pills, which continuously provided her with a rich supply of spiritual energy.

However, most of the Spirit-Nourishing Pills in the Purple Dragon Ring had been used up, yet Wu Ren and Kuang Zheng still showed no signs of breaking through.

Thus, this fierce competition gradually turned into a protracted war of spiritual energy attrition!

Under such almost abnormal pressure, Ying Yue's hidden potential was finally fully unleashed.

Her cultivation level soared upwards like a rocket with its fuse lit.

However, because her mind was entirely focused on Wu Ren and Kuang Zheng, she was completely unaware of the changes that had occurred within herself.

She only woke up from her dream when the barrier at the final stage of the consecration ceremony began to show obvious signs of loosening.

"Buzz..." Just then, a tremendous power erupted from Wu Ren's body.

Wherever it passed, ripples spread through the space.

Stimulated by this unprecedented power, Ying Yue could no longer suppress the surge of her spiritual energy; this was a sign of a breakthrough.

With an almost obsessive thirst for strength, how could she easily let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

Just then, Wu Ren slowly opened his eyes; he had finally completed his breakthrough.

However, time was of the essence, leaving her no room for further reaction.

Ying Yue quickly gave him a look before hastily beginning her breakthrough.

Wu Ren instantly understood the meaning in Ying Yue's eyes. He dared not delay for a moment and immediately focused his mind on stabilizing his cultivation.

After all, he knew that both Kuangzheng and Yingyue, who were at a critical stage of their breakthroughs and were about to break through, needed his protection.

Seeing that Wu Ren understood, Ying Yue was immediately relieved.

Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately sat down on the ground, adjusted her breathing, and focused all her energy on one point, preparing to launch an attack on that higher realm.

Having stabilized his own realm, Wu Ren looked at Kuang Zheng, who was still breaking through, with disbelief in his eyes.

Even though he had already solidified his initial stage of Heartbeat, he felt a slight sense of trepidation in the face of this powerful force. Was this still the initial stage of Heartbeat?

He was astonished to discover that although he and Kuang Zheng were both at the initial stage of Heartbeat, he was a cultivator who had successfully stabilized the initial stage of Enlightenment!

However, when he compared himself to Kuang Zheng, who was in the midst of a breakthrough, he was shocked to find that his strength was actually inferior to Kuang Zheng's.

No wonder he's a freak who needs ten times the spiritual energy of ordinary cultivators to break through to the same realm! His demand for spiritual energy far exceeds that of ordinary people, and the strength he displays is equally extraordinary.

This fact struck Wu Ren like a heavy blow, leaving him once again deeply shocked by Kuang Zheng's almost abnormal physique.

This extraordinary demand and capability is simply unbelievable.

Even before Kuang Zheng had fully achieved his breakthrough, he already felt the pressure.

It's so unbelievable, who would believe it if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes?

He was still reeling from the shock of Kuang Zheng when Ying Yue, who had just entered meditation, suddenly broke through!

His cultivation had reached a new fusion stage, and the whole process went smoothly and was incredibly fast.

Ying Yue's breakthrough this time left him speechless, once again refreshing his worldview!

Is it okay to play like this?

When did breaking through realms become so easy?

Is it because I'm old and frail and can't keep up with the times, or has something drastic changed?

At this moment, Wu Ren became depressed...
