Heaven Defying Sword Emperor

0The Ouyang Family had a Spirit Convergence Array. Legend has it that the Ouyang Family spent a lot of money to invite Spiritual Array Masters, and it was built with great difficulty.    

    

The Spirit Convergence Array was located a hundred meters behind the Ouyang Family Assembly Hall. Usually, not many disciples would go inside to cultivate it, after all, not everyone could afford to pay such a high price! He had painstakingly saved a month's worth of money in exchange for two to three days of cultivation time. "If it wasn't for the fact that they were faced with a critical situation, I believe that very few young martial practitioners would have chosen to cultivate inside the Spirit Gathering Formation.    

    

However, when Ouyang Xiaotian arrived at the back of the meeting hall, he frowned deeply.    

    

Behind the meeting hall, in a wide open area, stood an impenetrable structure that looked like a fortress. On the wall, there was a series of mysterious runes that were like earthworms as they rippled and flickered with a faint light. This was naturally the Spirit Convergence Array.    

    

There were quite a few people lined up outside the Spirit Gathering Array. From the looks of it, they had waited for a long time.    

    

Ouyang Xiaotian frowned. It seemed that since it was near the Hunting Competition, most of the disciples from Ouyang Family would take out their savings, and prepare to properly breakthrough into the next realm in the Spirit Gathering Array.    

    

There was only one Spiritual Concentration Formation, and it was currently facing a situation where there were too many monks and too few porridge.    

    

"Eh, isn't that Ouyang Xiaotian?"    

    

"He actually came as well!"    

    

"It seems like he has to prepare for the Hunting Competition as well!"    

    

Not a single one of the Ouyang Family disciples present were weak, as they were all strong competitors for the bounty.    

    

"He also wants to come to the Spiritual Concentration Formation?" A martial artist said in surprise, then he laughed out loud, "Stop teasing me, isn't he so poor that he can't even afford pants anymore?"    

    

A few people sat in the resting area, chatting idly.    

    

Ouyang Xiaotian muttered in his heart: "So many people, it seems like we won't make it today." However, there was no chance today, and there might not be a chance tomorrow either.    

    

Ouyang Xiaotian walked up to an old man in front of the Spirit Gathering Array and asked: "May I ask how do we get in?"    

    

The old man looked at Ouyang Xiaotian and said, "As long as you are willing to pay three times the price, you can go in first."    

    

Going in for a day costed fifty silver coins, and three times that meant a hundred and fifty silver coins.    

    

"Why do you ask? Do you have money? Don't even mention a hundred and fifty silver coins, even if you have a hundred silver coins, I will let you in. "    

    

The person was around eighteen or nineteen years old. He looked rather handsome, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. He was full of heroic spirit. However, there was a hidden arrogance between his brows, as if he didn't put anyone in his eyes. He looked at Ouyang Xiaotian with disdain. After all, Ouyang Xiaotian had risen up too quickly. It was hard for others to completely differentiate him from the timid Ouyang Xiaotian.    

    

Coincidentally, Ouyang Xiaotian also knew him.    

    

"Ouyang Feng." Ouyang Xiaotian read out a name.    

    

Ouyang Feng, the son of the Patriarch. With extraordinary talent, he had already reached the peak of the first level of Spirit Transforming Stage at the age of eighteen. It was only a matter of time before he entered the second level of Spirit Transforming Stage.    

    

Ouyang Xiaotian smiled and took out a gold coin from his pocket.    

    

"Watch carefully, what is this?"    

    

Ouyang Feng was suddenly speechless.    

    

The people around him felt like they had been slapped in the face. They were speechless.    

    

At this moment, the people from the Spiritual Concentration Formation came out. Ouyang Xiaotian handed three gold coins to the old man and said, "I want two days of practice time!"    

    

The old man smiled as he received the gold coins. He stroked his beard and said, "Brat, go in. This old man sees that your cultivation is about to break through, so I'll give you one more day." "Good luck!"    

    

When Ouyang Xiaotian heard this, he excitedly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Sir!"    

    

There was still one month until the Hunting Competition, but unexpectedly, he had somehow gotten the chance to cultivate inside the Spirit Gathering Formation for three days! If he could reach the seventh stage of the Qi Nourishing Stage in a single go, then even if his realm wasn't the highest, he wouldn't need to be afraid of any martial artists of the same age.    

    

After thanking him, Ouyang Xiaotian quickly stepped into the Spirit Convergence Array. As the heavy door slowly closed, the smile on the old man's face became more and more obvious.    

    

"This young man is interesting …"    

    

The surrounding darkness was extremely depressing, so Ouyang Xiaotian didn't think too much about it. He simply sat cross-legged on the ground, cleared away all distracting thoughts, closed his eyes, formed a seal with his hands and entered the state of cultivation.    

    

The spiritual energy in the Spirit Convergence Array was much denser than outside. Just a few breaths of air and it would be surrounded by the dense spiritual energy. That feeling was really great.    

    

Ouyang Xiaotian calmed himself down and sank his Qi into his Dantian. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. The spirit energy in the Spirit Gathering Formation was in the shape of a whirlpool, gathering and gathering within his body.    

    

If there was a true expert by his side and saw this scene unfold, he would definitely be greatly shocked.    

    

Because Ouyang Xiaotian had perfectly controlled all of his movements, from his posture to his expression, even the frequency and strength of each breath, there was nothing wrong with him!    

    

He didn't seem like a young man who had just started learning martial arts. Instead, he looked more like a powerful grandmaster of martial arts!    

    

All of this was thanks to the Qilin King.    

    

At this moment, Ouyang Xiaotian did not think about anything else. He was completely immersed in his cultivation and had forgotten everything.    

    

Breathing time after time, Ouyang Xiaotian successfully guided the spiritual energy into his body, slowly expanding the capacity of the spiritual energy in his body and achieving the goal of advancing to the next stage.    

    

There was no concept of time when one was training. A martial artist that was in closed-door seclusion would only need to open and close their eyes for a day to pass.    

    

It had to be said that this Spirit Convergence Array was truly good stuff, and was extremely useful for Qi Nourishing Stage Warriors and other Spirit Transforming Stage Warriors.    

    

In the midst of the haziness, Ouyang Xiaotian felt that his realm had unknowingly broke through to the Qi Nourishing Stage, and was continuing to advance towards the seventh stage of the Qi Nourishing Stage!    

    

He liked this feeling very much and enjoyed it very much. There were only three days left, and he had to grasp it. To rush all the way to the seventh level of the Qi Nourishing Stage in one breath, that was his final goal!    

    

The dense spirit energy coiled around them, Ouyang Xiaotian was doing his best to absorb the spirit energy, vowing to break through to the seventh level of the Qi Nourishing Stage in one go!    

    

The current situation was also very good. It proved that after the meridians in his body were repaired, Ouyang Xiaotian's meridians were twice as thick as an ordinary martial artist's. Now that they were inside the Spirit Convergence Array, the effects were even more shocking.    

    

The spiritual energy in his body continued to rise, and he quickly reached another critical point.    

    

At this time, Ouyang Xiaotian's cultivation was already at the peak of Qi Nourishing Stage!    

    

Without stopping, Ouyang Xiaotian continued to rush into the seventh level of Qi Nourishing Stage.    

    

Finally, Ouyang Xiaotian's spirit energy and willpower reached their peak at the same time. With a serious expression, he shouted in a low voice.    

    

In an instant, the entire Spirit Convergence Array seemed to tremble, and the raging energy of the spirit energy madly surged. Ouyang Xiaotian's entire aura changed. He was clearly at the critical moment of his charge.    

    

"Buzz!"    

    

The air vibrated along with it, and an even stronger and greater amount of spiritual energy was emitted from Ouyang Xiaotian's body. Another meridian was opened.    

    

He had finally reached the seventh level of Qi Nourishing Stage!    

    

Outside the Spirit Convergence Array, the old man seemed to have felt something and a trace of light flashed through his originally lowered eyes.    

    

He faintly smiled and said, "Not bad, this old man didn't misjudge you."
