Yu Xian sat still with his eyes closed, waiting for his body to fully absorb the medicinal power of the Minor Spirit Pill before swallowing another one.

He cleansed his body, expelled impurities, expanded his Qi Sea, and condensed Spiritual Qi.

A bottle containing five Minor Spirit Pills was quickly consumed.

But Yu Xian had ten bottles, so he didn't hesitate to take out another bottle and continue swallowing, quickly finishing it!

A Qi Sea of three feet, with Spiritual Qi condensed like dark clouds!

He swallowed another bottle!

A Qi Sea of three feet and five inches, with raindrops already brewing within the dark clouds!

He swallowed yet another bottle!

A Qi Sea of four feet, with the dark clouds seemingly about to liquefy!

Until the fifth bottle!

The Qi Sea expanded to four feet and seven inches, with half-liquid, half-gaseous Spiritual Qi inside, finally reaching the critical point!

Yu Xian stopped taking the Minor Spirit Pills.

Instead, he took out a jade bottle containing the Sea-Expanding Pill.

With a gentle tilt of his hand, a smooth, peanut-sized pill with a faint medicinal fragrance, resembling white fat, rolled into his hand.

The Sea-Expanding Pill, worth three hundred Spirit Stones!

Only one pill per bottle.

Taking a deep breath of Spiritual Qi, Yu Xian focused his mind, completely discarding any distracting thoughts, then raised his hand and swallowed the Sea-Expanding Pill.

To expand the sea, naturally, it meant expanding the Qi Sea!

Inside Yu Xian's body, his entire Dantian twisted instantly, the domineering medicinal effect pulling at the Dantian like dozens of large hands, causing his Qi Sea to begin expanding!

Four feet and seven inches, five feet, five and a half feet, six feet!

Sweat continuously beaded on Yu Xian's forehead, the pain from the twisting Dantian was extremely terrifying.

But he endured, gripping Spirit Stones in both hands, continuously absorbing, ensuring the expanded Qi Sea had enough Spiritual Qi to prevent it from retracting.

Six and a half feet, seven feet!

When his Qi Sea expanded to seven feet, it finally began to slow down, until it reached seven feet and three inches, where the medicinal effect completely ended, and the expansion stopped.

A Qi Sea of seven feet and three inches, its capacity for Spiritual Qi nearly ten times more than before.

Yu Xian, drenched in sweat, opened his eyes, revealing a determined look.

Success or failure hinged on this moment!

If he succeeded next, he would reach the mid-Qi Condensation stage!

With the Spiritual Qi half-liquefied, just one step away from transforming into the Qi Condensation like Water of the mid-Qi Condensation stage.

While others needed years of arduous cultivation to reach this stage, today, he was about to step into it!

Yu Xian flipped his hand, and the jade bottle containing the Earth Spirit Pill appeared in his palm.

In fact, he could have spent a few months gradually reaching perfection, then naturally breaking through.

But he didn't want to wait.

The Earth Spirit Pill, even for cultivators in the late Qi Condensation or even Perfected Qi Condensation stage, was a highly beneficial elixir.

Valued at five hundred Spirit Stones, an average outer disciple couldn't afford it.

Yu Xian steadied his mind, raised his hand, and was about to take it to begin breaking through.

But just then, Yu Xian was suddenly startled, quickly retracting the elixir, and then looked sharply at the wooden door.

So close! Just a bit more! If he had swallowed it, everything would have been wasted!

Damn it, hadn't he already paid the Scorching Sun Essence Stone? Why was he at his door again!?

Yu Xian could already sense someone standing at the door.

No need to guess, it must be Old Third Zhang.

"Yu Xian."

Moments later, Old Third Zhang's indifferent voice came from outside the door.

Murderous intent flickered in Yu Xian's eyes. Anyone who was interrupted during cultivation for no reason, almost ruining their major affairs, would naturally be filled with rage and killing intent!

After a moment, Yu Xian suppressed the murderous intent, calmly got off the bed, opened the door, and looked at Old Third Zhang at the door, saying indifferently, "Steward, what brings you here at night? If there's nothing, I need to rest."

"There is something, of course."

Old Third Zhang looked at the young man in front of him, smiling, "Previously, Zhao Mulin had you mining at Ding No. 18, which was really too much; that's an abandoned mine! Now I've decided to let you mine at Yi No. 3. What do you think?"

"Really?"

Yu Xian showed a surprised expression, smiling, "Thank you, Steward."

"Come, I'll take you to see Yi No. 3 mine. If you're not satisfied, I'll change it for you."

Old Third Zhang's face was full of a kind smile, as if he was speaking the truth.

Yu Xian smiled at Old Third Zhang, his gaze sharp, then nodded after a moment, "Alright!"

Old Third Zhang didn't understand Yu Xian's gaze. Hearing Yu Xian's words, he was immediately delighted, "Then follow me!"

With that, he turned and left.

He hadn't expected this kid to actually believe his words.

If he had been unwilling or had quibbled, he really wouldn't have been able to kill him here.

After all, at this time, there were still quite a few disciples mining, cultivating, or sleeping in their dwellings. If they saw him kill Yu Xian for no reason, he would surely be in trouble.

But this foolish young man actually believed his words?

Hahaha, he's seeking death himself, not even the gods can save him!

Yu Xian watched Old Third Zhang's back, his smile fading, his expression indifferent as he followed.

The two walked for half an hour, quickly reaching the depths of the mine, Yi No. 3 mine, which had been developed for about a year and was rich in resources.

Generally, disciples with even slightly decent luck could mine for a month and end up with one or two, or even three Scorching Sun Essence Stones, which could be exchanged for Spirit Stones for cultivation.

This Yi No. 3 mine had an owner.

But Old Third Zhang still led Yu Xian into the mine.

The two walked deeper into the mine, gradually reaching a point where even moonlight couldn't penetrate, becoming increasingly dark.

"Kid."

Suddenly, Old Third Zhang stopped, turned to Yu Xian, and with a sinister expression, said, "Tell me, do you have some secret to mining?"

Yu Xian showed a surprised expression, "Steward, what are you talking about? How could I have... Earth Spike!"

Yu Xian's last low shout was like muffled thunder, filled with killing intent!

Boom!

Inside the cave, the ground suddenly surged, and a sharp stone spike shot up, directly stabbing towards Old Third Zhang's lower body!

Either don't move, or strike first!

"What!?"

Old Third Zhang didn't expect Yu Xian to be so decisive and with such a high cultivation level!

The Earth Spike whistled out, and Old Third Zhang barely reacted, exclaiming as a green armor lit up on his body.

It was the Wood God Armor from the Ten Basic Spell Techniques of the White Cloud Sect.

Boom!

The Earth Spike collided with the Wood God Armor, causing a muffled explosion. Old Third Zhang grunted, being lifted into the air.

"Go!"

But since Yu Xian had made a move, how could it be just one Earth Spike?

With a loud shout, three fist-sized fireballs roared out!

At the same time, Yu Xian continued forming seals, shouting, "Fire Serpent Technique!"

"You little brat! How dare you attack me!?"

Old Third Zhang shouted in anger while forming seals to cast spells in defense, "You're courting death!!"

Boom boom boom!

The three fireballs struck the Wood God Armor, combined with the Earth Spike's attack, directly breaking Old Third Zhang's Wood God Armor. Then, a five-foot-long fire serpent, burning with scorching flames, appeared out of thin air, lunging at Old Third Zhang!

"Ah! You're at the mid-Qi Condensation stage!? How can you cast so many spells! Floating Light Mirror!"

Old Third Zhang exclaimed in shock, a copper mirror floated up from his chest, emitting light, enveloping him once more!

With a muffled boom, the fire serpent crashed into the shield formed by the Floating Light Mirror, sparking an explosion, causing the shield to tremble and nearly dissipate.

"Hahaha! You brat! You're out of spells! Your Spiritual Qi is exhausted, right!? How dare you ambush me! I'll skin you alive and tear you apart later!"

Old Third Zhang relaxed slightly, then roared in fury, raising his hand to quickly form seals, casting spells!

"Kill!"

But how could Yu Xian end it here?

If before he only had a two-foot Qi Sea, these spells would indeed have exhausted his Spiritual Qi.

But now, he had a Qi Sea over seven feet!

With an indifferent expression, Yu Xian's hands moved like dancing butterflies, continuously forming seals, and in the blink of an eye, he formed another spell.

Black Water Cannon!

Search "pawℝead.com" for the original.

A human-head-sized water droplet condensed out of thin air in the mine, then shot like a bomb towards Old Third Zhang!

"Go go go!"

One Black Water Cannon wasn't enough, Yu Xian continued forming seals, Golden Light Technique, Wind Blade Technique, Fireball Technique, Earth Spike, casting spells like there was no tomorrow!

At this moment, Yu Xian had transformed into a human-shaped spell machine gun!

Once taking the initiative, there was no stopping until his Qi Sea was completely exhausted!

Boom boom boom boom!

Explosions, roars, and flying debris.

The ground ahead was forcibly blasted by Yu Xian into a pit about a zhang wide and five or six feet deep!
