Chapter 356 - 288: Innate Limit, Second Martial Vein! (Double - )
The full moon hangs high, the night is enchanting.
Amongst the flora and jungle, many luminous Exotic Beasts poke their heads out.
Insects fly all around, creating a blurry scene.
And within this vast jungle lies a sprawling mountain range stretching for dozens of kilometers.
The mountain is covered with a thin layer of tender grass.
The Spirit Crystal Vein that was discovered is right here.
With nightfall upon us, there are still many experienced miners diligently digging in the opened mining pits.
This hurried overtime work is to quickly exhaust the Spirit Crystals here to avoid long nights of dreams.
These miners were conscripted from Lei City, each with rich mining expertise.
Outside mining pit number seven, over three hundred Soldier Generals stand guard.
Pairs of eyes, bright as torches, are vigilantly watching the surroundings.
Several Centurions are stationed on four sides of the mining pit, releasing their perception to fully cover the paths leading up the mountain outside the pit.
In front of the mining cave, Fu Yuan is sitting cross-legged on a large rock, with a Silver Spear standing straight by his side, pointing to the sky.
After circulating the Innate Qi Aura through his body, Fu Yuan gently exhaled, lifting his gaze to the top of the mine.
At the top of the cave, Song Changming sits high and armored, quietly carrying a long knife on his back.
At this moment, the Innate Qi Aura within him is overflowing, rising like boiling water.
That Martial Vein storing the Innate Qi Aura has no more space to contain it.
This is the Innate Limit.
The excessive Innate Qi Aura needs a new space; every time at this moment comes the opportunity to break through to the second Martial Vein.
In the past few days, he has already vaguely sensed the emergence of this breakthrough opportunity.
Tonight, the timing is finally ripe.
"Increase the output!" Song Changming softly instructed.
In the pocket of his garment, a small slit is open on the Black Box.
Mountain Ginseng Spirit Xiaojin reluctantly exerted its strength, obediently increasing the traction of the Spiritual Qi.
In the next moment, the surrounding Spiritual Qi accelerated its flow, converging into a light Spiritual Mist around him.
The mist entwined, condensing without dispersing.
The Spiritual Mist was continuously absorbed into his body, these external Spiritual Qi, mottled and unprocessed, serving as temporary energy for breaking through the second Martial Vein.
Without sufficiently strong refined Spiritual Power as guidance and constraint, such an approach can easily harm oneself.
But Song Changming doesn’t care about these things; having more abundant Spiritual Qi can provide significant assistance, enhancing the probability of breaking through the Martial Vein.
As for the risk of runaway Spiritual Qi, not to mention his Spiritual Power is strong enough, even if it really goes out of control, with his robust body, he can withstand it without suffering severe injuries like ordinary Martial Artists.
"Increase it further!" Feeling yet undaunted, Song Changming was not satisfied with this amount of Spiritual Qi.
Upon hearing this, Xiaojin in the Black Box swung its tendrils wildly, summoning all its strength.
A massive amount of Spiritual Qi was forcibly drawn from the mountain below by it, and the Spiritual Mist surrounding Song Changming instantly became denser.
Being situated in the Spirit Crystal Vein has this advantage.
Countless Spirit Crystals piled up here, causing the quality of dispersed Spiritual Qi at this place to nearly match a Dongtian Blessed Land, if not surpassing it!
Plus, with the Mountain Ginseng Spirit as Spiritual Qi guide, Song Changming can make the most of this Spiritual Qi environment for cultivation.
He has been stationed here for nearly a year as per orders, with cultivation progress advancing by leaps and bounds.
This led to achieving the first Innate Limit and gaining the opportunity for a breakthrough in just over a year.
The next moment, feeling almost ready, within Song Changming’s Nether Sea, the refined Spirit Body trembled and fully released Spiritual Power, to guide the flow of all Innate Qi Aura and absorbed Spiritual Qi throughout his body.
Just like the previous breakthrough, all Innate Qi Aura and Spiritual Qi were refined and compressed, as if transforming into a heavy hammer, striking the barrier of the second Martial Vein.
The Hidden Vein appeared in an instant, yet the obstructed bottleneck did not open at once.
Song Changming wasn’t anxious; he knew breaking through Martial Veins isn’t easy, continuing to circulate Innate Qi Aura and Spiritual Qi, repeatedly pushing.
Many Innate Martial Artists also do not achieve breakthroughs of internal Martial Veins all at once.
Often requiring continuous honing, with multiple failures and accumulation, ultimately achieving a breakthrough with effort.
This process requires Martial Artists to seize several, if not dozens, of breakthrough opportunities to succeed.
And tonight was only Song Changming’s first attempt at a breakthrough.
Even if unsuccessful tonight, it would be understandable.
However, he believes that with the perfect alignment of heaven, earth, and human harmony tonight, there is a possibility of a one-time breakthrough!
If he leaves this Spirit Crystal Vein, the difficulty of another breakthrough will be even greater.
As Spiritual Qi is constantly consumed in the shock process, guided by Mountain Ginseng Spirit Xiaojin, further Spiritual Qi is continuously absorbed into his body as replenishment.
Repeated impacts, after who knows how long, showed signs of breakthrough on the obstructed Martial Vein.
"It can be done!" Seeing the sign, Song Changming’s confidence surged, and he continued to persist immediately.
His Spiritual Power was also being rapidly consumed in the breakthrough process.
After a stick of incense time passed, with Spiritual Power nearing depletion, Song Changming seemed to hear a crisp snap at a certain moment.
Something snapped within his body!
He felt a lightness throughout his entire body, a featherlike feeling, as though with a breath of wind, his Heart and Spirit and physical body were about to soar together to the skies.
The sky is vast for birds to fly, and the sea is broad for fish to leap.
The shackle binding his entire body had another link broken tonight!
The second Innate Martial Vein is through!
