Shui Yueli and Ye Bufan were now old acquaintances. Knowing that he knew little about the situation in Kunlun Continent, they began to talk about it.
"Among the five states in the Kunlun Continent, Tianwu State in the Eastern Region is the strongest. There are a total of five nine-star sects, and they occupy a total of forty places in this battle of geniuses and monsters.
Tianmang Prefecture in the Southern Territory is the second most powerful, with four nine-star sects occupying thirty places.
Tianshengzhou in the Central Region is in the middle, with three nine-star sects occupying fifteen places.
You must already know the strength of Tianqiong Province. There are two Nine-Star Sects occupying ten places, and the remaining five places belong to me, Tianluo State."
"oh!"
Ye Bufan nodded. Based on this quota allocation, we can also feel how big the strength gap between the continents is.
Both Tianluo Prefecture and Tianqiong Prefecture are pitifully weak compared to other states.
He asked again: "In Kunlun Continent, is the Nine Star Sect the most powerful?"
"of course not."
Shui Yueli said, "The strength of each major sect is divided according to the cultivation level of the strongest. Those who have the Mahayana stage are called Nine Star Sects.
The truth is, those who have strong men in the Tribulation Stage are the Ten Star Sects, but everyone doesn’t call them that, they all call them the Holy Sect.”
Jiang Fangzhou didn't know much about high-level monks, so he asked in surprise: "Transcending the tribulation period? Hasn't that already ascended?"
"Of course not, it's not that easy to ascend." Shui Yueli explained, "The tribulation period is the same as the previous cultivation levels. It is divided into four levels: early stage, middle stage, late stage and perfection.
Only when you truly reach the Great Perfection of the Tribulation Transcendence Period, receive the divine inspiration to bring down the thunder calamity, and survive it, can you truly become immortal and ascend."
Jiang Fangzhou clicked his tongue: "So that's it, but it's too difficult!"
Shui Yueli said: "The path of cultivation is to go against the will of heaven, so it is naturally even more difficult to ascend to the immortal world.
Because of this, there have been very few monks in Kunlun Continent who have been able to ascend over the years."
Ye Bufan said: "Since there is a holy sect, why are the nine-star sects used as the standard for the division of strength in each continent? Don't they have any disciples to participate in the battle of geniuses and evildoers?"
"No."
Shui Yueli said: "The Holy Sect has a high status and generally does not participate in the activities of other sects, including the battle between geniuses and evildoers."
Ye Bufan nodded and asked: "Which of these three holy sects are there? Which one is stronger?"
He knew very little about the Kunlun world, so he wanted to get as much information as possible.
"Two of the three holy gates are in Tianwu Prefecture, namely Xuantian Gate and Qingmengzhai, and the other Taixu Palace is in Tianmang Prefecture in the Southern Territory.
Outsiders don't know much about the three holy sects. They only know that they all have strong men who have transcended the tribulation period. As for who is stronger, it is unknown."
After asking a few more questions, Ye Bufan asked almost everything he wanted to know, and then said: "Water Fairy, your cultivation must have been initiated by a senior, and it seems that the foundation has not been solid yet."
"Yes, the Supreme Elder just sacrificed his own cultivation to give me a successful initiation."
Shui Yueli's cultivation level had just been obtained, and it was already unstable. After another battle, her aura was very weak now.
"Here, let me help you stabilize it quickly."
Ye Bufan asked her to sit cross-legged in front of him, then took out the golden needle and quickly inserted it into dozens of large acupoints.
About half an hour later, Shui Yueli opened her eyes again with excitement on her face.
After this treatment, not only the remaining injuries have been completely healed, but the true energy in the body has been completely stabilized, and there are no longer any hidden dangers.
She glanced at the young man in front of her, her eyes full of admiration and admiration.
"Ye Yixian, thank you for your help!"
"This is nothing. We will continue to fight side by side in the future."
Ye Bufan smiled and looked at everyone present, "Everyone should hurry up and go back to practice, stabilize your cultivation, and adjust your condition to the best.
Tomorrow morning we will go to Tiansheng Prefecture, and this time we must let them see the strength of our Tianluo Prefecture."
"Don't worry, Brother Ye. Those short-sighted guys underestimate me in Tianluo Province. This time, we must shock their eyes."
Jiang Fangzhou shook his fist excitedly, and everyone else was also full of confidence.
Although Tianluo Prefecture's previous performance was disastrous, they have enough confidence in Ye Bufan and believe that this time it will surely impress other continents.
After everyone left, Ye Bufan also returned to the room prepared for him.
He did not practice here, but chose to return to the Dragon King Palace.
On the eve of the competition, he also wanted to improve his cultivation as much as possible. Before, because of the colorful black stones, he did not dare to use all the spiritual stones in his pocket, but now he no longer has such scruples.
With a thought in his mind, countless spiritual stones appeared on Dragon King Island, forming a hill tens of meters high.
The rich spiritual energy spreads out in all directions and condenses into substance, making people feel comfortable after taking a sip.
He had accumulated a lot of spiritual stones before, and later he killed Qian Wuji and the elders of the Demon Sect one after another. The harvest was quite rich, and now his total spiritual stones amounted to over 100 million.
Last time, hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones were used to break through from the mid-term to the late stage of integration. I don’t know how much more will be consumed this time.
It is good to cultivate Chaos Qi. It has endless magical effects and is invincible at the same level. The only drawback is that it consumes too much.
Ye Bufan sat cross-legged on the top of the hill made of spiritual stones, and then started to circulate his Qi.
With the operation of the Chaos Technique, the surrounding spiritual energy immediately seemed to have found an outlet, and hundreds of rivers surged towards his body like a sea.
And his body was like a high-powered water pump that never stopped, rapidly devouring these spiritual energy.
The more he swallowed, the richer the spiritual energy emitted by the surrounding spiritual stones, gradually forming a huge spiritual energy vortex centered on his body.
The spiritual energy kept condensing into his body, getting faster and faster, and the hill-like spiritual stone shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye until it disappeared.
I don't know how long it took, but there was a click in his mind. The sound was not loud, just like an egg shell breaking.
Then his momentum suddenly surged, and he instantly reached the state of perfect union.
"not bad!"
Feeling that he had finally made a breakthrough, Ye Bufan slowly opened his eyes.
He did not directly charge into the Cave Void Stage. He had to check whether there were enough spiritual stones first, otherwise all the efforts would be wasted when the spiritual energy was insufficient in the middle of the charge.
Ye Bufan looked around and found that he was still sitting on the top of the hill, but Lingshi Mountain was now smaller than before.
Preliminary observation shows that the spirit stones have been consumed by about 20%. In other words, he has used a total of 20 million high-grade spirit stones for this breakthrough.
"hiss……"
This made him take a breath of air. Although he had been mentally prepared before, he still felt a pain in his body.
The spirit stones were gone in two nights, and this was only a small level of breakthrough. How much would it take to break through from the peak of integration to the early stage of cave void?
According to the current calculation, it is initially estimated that it will cost 200 million high-grade spiritual stones, or even more.
As expected, cultivation is all done with resources. Without resources, cultivation is just nonsense.
It seemed that the remaining spirit stones were not enough for him to reach the integration stage, so he could only stop here. He collected all the spirit stones and left the Dragon King Palace with a thought.
