As soon as Wang Weijun began his cultivation, the surrounding Spiritual Qi crazily surged into Mi Xiaojing’s body. In an instant, a breeze formed around Mi Xiaojing’s body, as if he was a bottomless pit, madly devouring the surrounding Spiritual Qi.

Just as the Spiritual Qi in the cave was about to be completely absorbed, suddenly, formations began to activate within the cave. One, two, three, a total of seven Gathering Spirit Arrays continuously activated, replenishing the previously scarce Spiritual Qi.

In just a few moments, the Spiritual Qi in the cave condensed into liquid, transforming into a misty drizzle that fell down.

Wang Weijun breathed a sigh of relief. He found that no matter how much Spiritual Qi he absorbed, the surrounding Spiritual Qi remained abundant, preventing him from being completely drained of energy by the Mantra Banner.

Mi Xiaojing, however, was unaware of these changes. He was still staring intently at the heart tower, where seven clusters of ancient texts, like meteors, were gradually slowing down in their orbit.

As their speed slowed, Mi Xiaojing could now clearly see the light clusters formed by these seven clusters of ancient texts.

The light clusters gradually stretched out, and what happened next left Mi Xiaojing utterly astounded.

The light clusters elongated and became rectangular, resembling the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture.

Seven Pill Scriptures!

Mi Xiaojing was so shocked that he was at a loss for words. Was this a replication of the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture? How could that be possible!

Soon, Mi Xiaojing noticed the differences. These seven Pill Scriptures were all formed by ancient texts without a carrier. Compared to the real Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture, there was still a significant difference. However, they already had the rudimentary form of the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture.

It was as if on a transparent crystal, the purple ancient texts emitted a faint halo. Anything with a halo was a treasure. Although the halo was very weak, Mi Xiaojing understood that this was already considered a treasure.

When the ancient texts formed the seven Pill Scriptures, the Spiritual Qi that had already turned into liquid seemed to have found an outlet, madly rushing into Mi Xiaojing’s body, heading straight for the seven Pill Scriptures.

At this point, Wang Weijun couldn’t absorb even a trace of Spiritual Qi, which greatly frightened him. However, he quickly realized that although he couldn’t absorb any Spiritual Qi, the Mantra Chains were no longer draining his energy. He breathed a sigh of relief, but after a quick check on his Elemental Infant, he couldn’t help but curse.

The true essence of his Elemental Infant, which he had painstakingly accumulated, had been consumed by more than half, almost reaching the brink of collapse.

This was truly disheartening!

Even with seven Gathering Spirit Arrays, even with an underground spiritual spring, even with such abundant Spiritual Qi, in a very short time, the seven Pill Scriptures inside Mi Xiaojing’s body had absorbed all the Spiritual Qi. The subsequent Spiritual Qi was simply not enough.

Wang Weijun suddenly realized that the Mantra Chains had started to absorb his true essence again. He was so scared that he didn’t know what to do. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t absorb any Spiritual Qi, and the true essence of his Elemental Infant was rapidly depleting.

I’m done for!

His Elemental Infant rapidly shrank, and in a moment, Wang Weijun looked much older. He looked around in despair, truly unwilling to accept this.

Meanwhile, Mi Xiaojing also noticed something was wrong. The Starry Sky power within his body was madly rushing into the seven Pill Scriptures. Even if he wanted to stop it, he couldn’t, forcing him to start cultivating.

Fortunately, Mi Xiaojing could absorb starlight anywhere. Even if he was hundreds of meters underground, it didn’t hinder his cultivation.

This cultivation session was different from the previous ones. Mi Xiaojing was completely immersed in it. Because the Pill Scriptures within his body were constantly drawing on the Starry Sky power, every time he transformed starlight into Starry Sky power, it would immediately disappear. Mi Xiaojing couldn’t even stay conscious, he could only continue cultivating.

With the emergence of a large amount of Starry Sky power, the seven Pill Scriptures’ absorption of the surrounding Spiritual Qi weakened. Plus, Mi Xiaojing was absorbing starlight, not Spiritual Qi, which allowed the Spiritual Qi in the cave to slowly recover. The seven Gathering Spirit Arrays were functioning, and the spiritual spring was also spewing out Spiritual Qi.

Wang Weijun was in a near-death state, thinking he was doomed. But just then, the Mantra Chains suddenly shook and stopped absorbing his true essence.

Wang Weijun finally recovered a bit. Looking at his Elemental Infant that was on the verge of collapse, he felt somewhat disheartened. This was too difficult.

However, Wang Weijun quickly cheered up. A cultivator, especially one who could cultivate to the Unity Stage, was a tenacious individual. Even if they were momentarily disheartened, they wouldn’t truly give up. Cultivators inherently defied the heavens. If they gave up easily, they wouldn’t be true cultivation masters.

After a bit of cultivation, Wang Weijun was overjoyed because the Spiritual Qi was back.

Mi Xiaojing and Wang Weijun were both immersed in cultivation, and time passed unknowingly.

Half a year passed in a blink!

During this time, Yu Hong and Mo Chentian had come to visit. All four elders had visited, some even twice or thrice. But each time, Mi Xiaojing seemed like a dead man, covered in a thick layer of dust.

Yu Hong and the others speculated that Mi Xiaojing must have entered some kind of state, but they didn’t know the real changes in Mi Xiaojing.

In fact, with Mi Xiaojing’s cultivation level, he shouldn’t have been able to seclude himself for so long. Even though he was already at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, he couldn’t go without food or drink for a long time. The reason he could hold on until now was mainly because Wang Weijun was cultivating, and the large amount of Spiritual Qi nourishing his body allowed him to sustain for a long time without affecting his cultivation.

After half a year of seclusion, without eating or drinking, Mi Xiaojing unknowingly advanced to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, almost reaching the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. This speed was simply terrifying.

However, Mi Xiaojing was unaware of all this. Once immersed in a certain unknown state, cultivators lose their sense of time. To them, it’s just a moment.

In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed. This state was not easy for cultivators to achieve. It required not only opportunity and luck but also the right timing. Only when all conditions coincided could they succeed.

Wang Weijun didn’t disturb Mi Xiaojing either. He was also having a hard time. The Mantra Banner would occasionally drain his true essence, and each time it would only stop when his Elemental Infant was about to collapse, forcing him to cultivate desperately.

It wasn’t until two months had passed that the Mantra Banner stopped absorbing his energy, finally giving Wang Weijun four months of his own cultivation time. He slowly recovered and even managed to strengthen his true essence a bit.However, the idea of improving one’s cultivation level was almost an impossible task.

Mi Xiaojing opened his eyes, thinking that only a few hours had passed. As he tried to stand up, he suddenly felt his entire body stiffen.

The power of the Starry Sky circulated throughout his body, causing his joints to crackle until he felt slightly better. Mi Xiaojing pushed himself off the ground and finally managed to stand up, only then did he realize something was wrong. To be continued.
