Chapter Fifty-two: Devouring the Crystal Nucleus

  Brothers, you are too awesome! I feel like I'm dreaming, my hands are shaking... Thank you everyone, thank you to all the brothers who collected and voted, really thank you very much! There's still one more chapter before 12 o'clock.

  —————————————

  At noon, the sun shines brightly.

  It's already autumn, but it's still scorching hot in the Kunlun Mountains. After a night of galloping, Qin Tian was drenched in sweat, his clothes soaked through. Feeling the aura on the black rocks beside him, he couldn't help but feel envious.

  The Kunlun Mountains are more than sixty kilometers away from Qinghe City, and then enter the mountain range from the outer circle, passing through nearly five hundred kilometers. Hei Yan's face is not red, his breath is not short, and there is no fluctuation in his breathing.

  Since Qin Tian grasped the law of breath, all living things within a kilometer around him couldn't escape his perception of their breath. The law transcended rules and stood above techniques, only those with extraordinary intuition could comprehend it.

  Although the breath method seems a bit awkward, in fact it is not. In combat, Qin Tian can clearly feel the flow of his opponent's internal breath, rotation, and within a kilometer distance, he can discover his opponent. A kilometer may be short, but for a master, this is enough to make very sufficient preparations.

  Besides, breathing methods are just primary stages.

  "Right ahead is the hinterland of the Kunlun Mountains."

  Kuroiwa's heart still had lingering fear as he glanced at the dark front, gusts of cold wind blowing, his heart slightly trembling.

  A gloomy wind howled, and the eerie cries of ferocious beasts echoed incessantly, making one's heart quail with fear, not daring to take another step forward.

  The demonic beasts on the outer periphery of the Kunlun Mountains were all low-ranking and did not pose a great challenge to Qin Tian.

  The experience value of low-level demon beasts is very low, and now 100 or so points of experience are no longer enough for Qin Tian. Moreover, there are too many adventure teams on the periphery, and as soon as they encounter one, a group of people immediately surround it.

  It's just like in Novice Village where a large number of players gang up on one monster, such a miserable thing Qin Tian didn't want to do again.

  Qin Tian took a deep breath, and a red glow flashed in his eyes. He released the Breath of Qi, sensing all living creatures within a kilometer radius to see if there were any high-ranking demonic beasts hiding around him.

  Between a few breaths, Qin Tian was about to step into the dark forest when Hei Yan suddenly thought of something and said: "You should swallow the crystal nucleus now and quickly break through the Ling Gathering Boundary, otherwise it will be difficult for you to protect yourself inside."

  "Swallow crystal nucleus?"

  Qin Tian's eyebrows rose in delight, and he almost forgot about the crystal core.

  Qin Zhan Tian probed him three times, his purpose was to find out if Qin Tian had swallowed the crystal nucleus, and how much energy the crystal nucleus hid. Enough to make Qin Zhan Tian, who was in the Refining Boundary realm, have to be cautious for a while?

  Extract the crystal core of the Violent Ape King from the Space Ring, crystal clear and translucent like a marble, with a milky white halo appearing and disappearing, emitting a powerful energy aura.

  "Hurry up and drink it down, otherwise you'll attract high-level demonic beasts."

  The black rock faintly said that the demon beasts in the Kunlun Mountains were also like humans, where the weak were preyed upon by the strong, and only the fittest survived. The demon beasts were mutually incompatible, especially among the higher-level ones, who seemed to harbor a deep-seated hatred for each other, and would engage in a fierce battle that would not end until one of them died.

  And their struggle between each other, apart from competing for territory, also involves robbing the crystal nucleus under each other's skull. The cultivation of the demon beast and human beings is the same, but after hundreds of years of cultivation, they can condense the crystal nucleus, which stores a huge amount of energy, and being able to absorb this energy can bring great benefits.

  The struggle among the demon beasts also led to the fact that the five-stage demon beasts in the Kunlun Mountains were extremely powerful, and no one in the Refining Boundary could be their opponent.

  Hei Yan said, Qin Tian was stunned, and immediately put the crystal nucleus into his mouth.

  The crystal nucleus entered Qin Tian's body, a strong light shot out from his throat, and finally slowly disappeared, like a stone sinking into the ocean, becoming silent.

  Hei Yan sat on one side, a smile spreading across his face as he gazed at Qin Tian's calm expression, saying, "Soon you will be able to feel the power of the crystal core."

  Qin Tian didn't feel anything at all, but as soon as Hei Yan finished speaking, a drastic change began to occur in his Dantian. The system kept prompting "Increased Qi value by 100 points, Increased Qi value by 100 points..."

  System sound constantly displaying in mind, a string of red font crazily refreshing.

  Qin Tian clearly saw his Qi value increasing continuously, and seeing this made him feel extremely pleased. What crystal core was this? It was actually the source of magical power!

  The crystal nucleus releases a ring of light in the dantian, each flash increasing the qigong value by 100 points, with a steady speed and no signs of stopping, it's simply crazy.

  Yesterday, he consumed over 10,000 points of Qi Gong, and the progress bar for his Qi Gong value was more than two-thirds empty. Now, after using just over ten minutes, it has recovered by more than half, and is still continuously increasing. Qin Tian's heart is delighted beyond measure.

  Ordinary cultivators who absorb crystal nuclei will comprehensively temper their bodies, and some talented individuals can even break through continuously within a day of absorbing the crystal nucleus. Those with mediocre innate abilities will also undergo a powerful transformation, undergoing metamorphosis.

  A crystal core usually takes three years to refine the energy inside, and in those three years, you don't need to do anything, just refining it can greatly enhance its power.

  Qin Tian swallowed the crystal core, but it didn't change his body. However, the qigong in his dantian was constantly circulating and releasing, causing his qigong value to continuously increase. For Qin Tian, rapidly increasing his qigong value was much stronger than transforming his body.

  Half a time unit passed, and the energy value bar was full. At this moment, the crystal nucleus in the dantian calmed down again, motionless.

  Immediately, Qin Tian quietly activated his qigong, consuming a few points of qigong, and the crystal nucleus in his dantian suddenly became active again, emitting light, and his qigong value was instantly filled to the brim.

  "The source of magic power, is absolutely the source of magic power..."

  Qin Tian was overjoyed in his heart, and he couldn't help but let out a loud roar. With this thing, he didn't have to worry about not having enough internal energy, releasing big moves one after another, and if he couldn't kill him, he would smash him to death with his ultimate move.

  "Refreshing."

  His heart was filled with joy, happier than a child on New Year's Day. He then focused his mind and infused his Dan Tian, checking if he could control the crystal nucleus within it. To his surprise, his thoughts were able to link up with the crystal nucleus. Qin Tian's heart was once again filled with wild excitement as he immediately established a standard for releasing his Qi Gong values.

  After adjusting it, Qin Tian's face showed a happy expression, and he thought: "Drinking medicine is so cool, haha..."

  Hei Yan stood quietly to the side, watching Qin Tian's excited face and couldn't help but smile, his heart also happy for Qin Tian. Thinking of the brothers who had passed away, he silently said in his heart: "Brothers, we have another brother now."

  He truly regarded Qin Tian as his brother.

  Qin Tian truly regarded Hei Yan as an older brother.

  Everything was done, Qin Tian took a glance at Hei Yan, his heart full of gratitude.

  The black rock of the Refining Boundary wanted to take Qin Tian's crystal core, it was simply easy as turning one's hand over. When he killed the Violent Golden Ape, he should have taken its crystal core, but instead gave it to Qin Tian.

  This is great kindness, Qin Tianming will remember it in his heart.

  When dealing with enemies, one must know how to endure humiliation. When one's strength is great, crush them mercilessly and give them no chance to turn over.

  Treat brothers with sincerity and loyalty, like liver and gallbladder shining together.

  "How was it? The power of the crystal core is quite refreshing, isn't it?" Kuroiwa asked casually, and Yuehao replied with a smile.

  "It's not just cool, it's absolutely awesome!" Qin Tian said with a big smile.

  Then the two burst out laughing and stepped into the perilous land, the depths of the Kunlun Mountains!
