Chapter 1097: Breakthrough
Liang Qingqing couldn’t help but ask, “Dad, do you think there might be some problem with this phoenix egg? Why would Siming Manor’s high priest announce such important information to the public? Couldn’t their Siming Manor just sneakily come take the phoenix egg away?”
“Qingqing makes a good point.” Liang Wanshan remarked with a smile, “That is also what Father is contemplating. In any case, we just came to get in on the action! Whether we can obtain the phoenix egg all depends on chance.”
Situ Min also chortled. “Sect Master Liang is absolutely right. Then let us set off!”
After the group discussed for a bit, they shuffled into the Mystic Beast Forest behind their sect masters.
Not long after the two parties left, the Mu Clan’s patriarch, Mu Boming, appeared at the entrance to the forest with a group of young disciples—Mu Zijun, Mu Zhilan, etc.—in tow.
With his order, the people from the Mu Clan also headed for the Mystic Beast Forest, a bit of hope showing on each of their faces.
If he (she) could obtain the ancient bloodfire phoenix egg, then it would certainly raise their strength significantly! It was another story whether they could form a contract with it, but at least they still had hopes right now.
Sentiments surged as the mob of cultivators rushed over here for this contest by their own strength.
Meanwhile, Qiao Mu was also in the central part of the Mystic Beast Forest. After finding a place with the most concentrated mystic energy, she started to cultivate by meditation.
Very soon, she once again triggered the mystic energy inside the Mystic Beast Forest to gather above her head.
Previously, after using the rapid cultivation curse and absorbing all the mystic energy inside the Mystic Beast Forest secret realm, her cultivation had gone from level-13’s entry-rank, jumped over the progress rank, and directly stepped into the initial success rank.
Yet now, she felt that she was about to break through the barrier to phenomenal success!
If other people were to hear of this kind of abnormal cultivation speed, breaking through from initial success to phenomenal success in less than one day and night, they would certainly die from fright.
Cultivate, cultivate, cultivate!
These three words were drifting in Darling Qiao’s mind the entire time!
She once again immersed herself in this cultivating state without batting an eyelid. Although her five senses had been completely blocked, her spiritual conscious expanded exceedingly fiercely.
Her spiritual conscious was originally at level-one, but over these several days, it had already leveled up twice to level-three spiritual conscious.
This was a rather excessive matter. After all, the level of normal people’s mystic conscious was generally about 60 percent of their body’s cultivation, and this was already considered excellent.
In other words, it would already be considered a perfect proportion if a level-13 great mystic cultivator’s mystic conscious reached level seven.
Yet for Qiao Mu, although her cultivation had yet to break through to the spiritual realm, her conscious had already broken through to the spiritual realm first, with her spiritual conscious breaking through three levels.
This kind of achievement that defied the natural order was truly one of a kind in the world.
Everyone knew that compared to the body’s cultivation, it was more difficult to expand the mystic conscious.
Hence, increasing the mystic conscious by one level within a mere one or two days was an absolutely impossible task!
However, Qiao Mu overturned this impossibility as she worked hard to cultivate, wholly concentrating on cultivating to the end.
Meanwhile, gigantic waves had long swelled inside the Mystic Beast Forest.
People from the eight great patrician families had all come upon catching wind of the news, planning to try their luck like a blind cat encountering a dead mouse.
Anyway, whether they could obtain the phoenix egg or not, it was just exercise! Participation was the most important…
When the Mu Clan’s patriarch, Mu Boming, and the Dou Clan’s patriarch, Dou Heping, bumped into each other inside the forest, they exchanged pleasantries with artificial smiles.
