Chapter 697: Hey~

The second step was a clear mind without any irrelevant thoughts.

Zhao Kuo, the cultivation maniac, had told Zhao Yanzi all the key points in a breakthrough.

That was why Zhao Yanzi had asked Hao Ren, the person she trusted most, to guard her during the breakthrough.

Silently, Hao Ren moved a stone chair to the side of Zhao Yanzi’s bed, blocking the entrance of the cave.

No mistakes were allowed in cultivation, which was why the cultivators would lock themselves in secret chambers to cultivate in seclusion.

Since most cultivators had enemies, it was tradition to find trusted cultivators who were on higher realms to guard them during the breakthroughs.

Sitting on the stone chair cross-legged, Hao Ren watched Zhao Yanzi who was concentrating and tried to calm himself.

With the quilt around her, traces of white vapor rose from Zhao Yanzi’s forehead.

This was the sign that the nature essence was gathering in the meridians.

If Hao Ren stood up, he could glance at the part of her body below her naked shoulders in the quilt.

After one year of cultivation and growth, Zhao Yanzi looked more beautiful than when they first met, and her figure got fuller.

“I guess more boys like her now,” Hao Ren thought with a bit of jealousy as he looked at her.

With her eyes closed, Zhao Yanzi was concentrating her mind on condensing the golden core. However, Hao Ren couldn’t close his eyes and cultivate. Instead, he must watch Zhao Yanzi closely, ready to act if she ran into issues.

Staring at Zhao Yanzi, he began to have other thoughts.

Exquisite small face, calm expression, twitching nostrils, pouting lips, and frowning eyebrows… Zhao Yanzi was in the most vivacious, lovely stage where she had just grown out of her childishness.

A cloud of white vapor rose from her shoulders, making her small collarbones looked as exquisite as two tie strings on a small pajama dress.

Her long black hair fell on her shoulders while some strands dropped to the front of her body, creating a sharp contrast against her white skin.

“Hu…” Hao Ren exhaled silently and began to circulate the spirit concentration scroll which he hadn’t used for a long time, trying to suppress his distracting thoughts.

If he had distracting thoughts, Zhao Yanzi would harbor distracting thoughts as well. Hao Ren was afraid that she would make mistakes since she had always been careless with her cultivation and studies.

“Erm…” Zhao Yanzi bit on her lower lip, and her eyelashes fluttered slightly.

Her peace of mind was disturbed while she was at an important checkpoint.

“I’m here. Don’t worry,” Hao Ren said immediately.

Zhao Yanzi nodded slightly and didn’t dare to open her eyes; it felt like her eyelids were glued.

She was looking inside of her body with nature essence, and opening her eyes would bring distracting thoughts to her mind. After hearing Hao Ren’s words, she calmed down a bit.

She didn’t care if Hao Ren were taking the opportunity to stare at her since she would marry him sooner or later.

In the small space inside the cotton quilt, white vapor got thicker, making it look like a small chimney.

A few sweat drops appeared on Zhao Yanzi’s forehead, which meant that her cultivation had entered a higher level.

The hair strands close to her forehead were damped with sweat, dripping sweat to the tip of her nose.

Hao Ren shot out a thin sword energy and moved sweatdrops at the ends of her hair.

At the critical moment, even the falling sweat drops could disturb the mind and bring unimaginable consequences.

Zhao Yanzi’s teeth left red marks on her lower lip, and her shoulders shook constantly.

In the moment of breakthrough, the firmness of a cultivator’s foundation was very important. However, Zhao Yanzi had spent far less time on cultivation than Hao Ren or Xie Yujia.

She had reached top-tier Foundation Establishment Realm with the aid of elixir pills. But to reach a higher realm, she must rely on her own will.

Hao Ren watched her anxiously, feeling the time ticking by slowly.

Sweat oozed from Zhao Yanzi’s skin and spread all over her body from her forehead to neck to shoulders.

It seemed like a natural process to reach the Core Formation Realm from the Foundation Establishment Realm, but it wasn’t easy to condense the nature essence into a core.

Since they were born with dragon cores, the dragon cultivators didn’t need to condense golden cores and could naturally reach Zhen-level. However, for human cultivators, they had to compress the nature essence into golden cores which could form their internal cores!

If it were an easy process, cultivation wouldn’t be going against the laws of nature!

Zhao Yanzi’s entire body was soaked in sweat as if she were sitting in a steaming pot or a volcano, releasing all the heat from her body.

Seeing her covered in sweat, Hao Ren didn’t dare to dry it for her since each disturbance at this moment would startle her.

All Hao Ren could do was stay with her and prevent anything from disturbing her.

If she were careless, and the nature essence deviated from the paths in her body, Hao Ren must act quickly and control the free-flowing nature essence!

When he saw that Zhao Yanzi had entered the most important process of core condensation, Hao Ren was more nervous than breaking through himself, and all his distracting thoughts were gone!

Four hours… Hao Ren calculated the time silently.

Four hours was a long time to be just sitting even if one weren’t cultivating.

Different from the Nascent Soul Realm breakthrough which took three to four days, the core condensation needed about half a day, but the cultivator must make good preparations for it.

Now, Hao Ren found that Zhao Yanzi’s frown had disappeared, and she had entered the realm of obliviousness. If she showed any agitation at this moment, it was a sign of trouble.

“This girl is careless in everyday life, but she succeeds at critical moments, just like how she could always pass the exams with good marks when she worked hard.” Hao Ren comforted himself with this thought.

Without the noises and distractions of the modern society, Fifth Heaven had more abundant nature essence, which meant that Zhao Yanzi had made a wise decision to break through in Ethereal Summit.

Looking at her peaceful face, Hao Ren wondered if those upsetting incidents were still inside her, giving her obstacles in the breakthrough.

However, if she indeed was sensitive to feelings, she should know that her life was happier compared with Duan Yao’s and wouldn’t mind the past conflicts. It would bring benefits to her cultivation breakthrough.

By returning to Sky Mountain Sect to break up with her past, Duan Yao was also preparing for her future breakthrough. After saying goodbye to her past, she would have fewer obstacles in her cultivation path.

In her breakthrough, Duan Yao must think back to her past. However, after the farewell to her past, the consequences would be minimal.

“I guess that Su Han has stayed alone because she is afraid of the potential distraction…” Hao Ren wondered what he would think on the day of his own breakthrough…

“Sword!” Zhao Yanzi suddenly reached out her hand from the pulled-up quilt.

Her slim and white arm reached out with her eyes still tightly shut.

With his fingertip, Hao Ren flicked the Purple Green Treasure Sword that was leaning against the bed, and it landed in Zhao Yanzi’s hand.

All the nature essence in Zhao Yanzi’s body circulated for one cycle before being injected into the Purple Green Treasure Sword.

While letting out a crisp sound, the body of the sword was surrounded by a flow of visible nature essence, and its sharp body looked vague inside.

“Zhao Yanzi wants to refine the Purple Green Treasure Sword!” Hao Ren was startled after understanding her intention.

However, he didn’t dare to utter a sound to stop her, or her nature essence would travel in the wrong path!

High-level cultivators including the Core Formation Realm cultivators could have their own natal dharma treasures.

However, low-tier Core Formation Realm cultivators usually didn’t have natal dharma treasures. One reason was that they might fail the refinery process and damage their bodies, and the other reason was that the cultivators at this realm usually didn’t have especially good dharma treasures. They wouldn’t want to make an ordinary dharma treasure into their natal dharma treasure since it would usually stay with them all their lives.

Zhao Yanzi was very bold to try and refine the Purple Green Treasure Sword while she was making a breakthrough! After receiving stimulation from Duan Yao and Xie Yujia, she was trying hard to increase her strength!

With her pure water body type and talent, she could control this top-tier sword and had a chance to make it into her natal dharma treasure, but it was quite risky!

Hum! Hum… The lights around the Purple Green Sword flashed. Although it wasn’t a supreme spiritual treasure, it still needed a powerful cultivator to refine it into a natal dharma treasure!

Zhao Yanzi looked calm, and Hao Ren watched her anxiously with sweat popping out on his forehead.

The refinery of natal dharma treasures would take twice the time compared to the Core Formation Realm breakthrough.

Each second during the breakthrough was risky, and Zhao Yanzi was a bit impatient to try to accomplish all these in one try!

The nature essence circulated in Zhao Yanzi’s body and then traveled around the body of the sword. It was dangerous to release the nature essence out of the body, let alone the fact that she was at the critical moment of a breakthrough!

Hao Ren began to regret letting her re-cultivate. With her personality, Zhao Yanzi should remain a carefree girl, and Zhao Hongyu was probably right about her future!

Ding! The Purple Green Treasure Sword let out a crisp sound.

Zhao Yanzi lifted the Purple Green Treasure Sword and inserted it into the top of her head.

Having turned into a phantom, the Purple Green Treasure Sword was injected into the Baihui Acupoint which was on top of Zhao Yanzi’s head.

Hao Ren held his breath with his heart in his throat.

If Zhao Yanzi made any mistake and lost control, the Purple Green Treasure Sword would return to its original state and cut open her head!

Despite his higher realm, Hao Ren could do nothing but watch in this situation!

The green sword phantom was almost visible from Zhao Yanzi’s white face while the tip of the sword entered her neck.

Hao Ren inhaled silently, not daring to swallow his saliva, afraid that a tiny sound would make Zhao Yanzi fail!

The sword phantom sunk little by little until it disappeared under her shoulder.

“Zhao Yanzi is too bold…” Hao Ren exhaled silently.

At the moment of a major breakthrough, it was indeed a good time for one’s nature essence to merge into a dharma treasure, making it one’s natal dharma treasure. However, if this cultivator failed, he or she would die instantly.

If one’s realm had reached a certain height, the refinery of a natal dharma treasure might fail, but the failure wouldn’t do significant damage to the body.

When the Purple Green Treasure Sword entered Zhao Yanzi’s body safely, Hao Ren looked down at his hands and saw that they were covered in sweat.

Ever since he began cultivating, he hadn’t sweated this bunch even when he fought with Taiyi Cave Master!

Zhao Yanzi exhaled deeply and opened her eyes.

Three light dots appeared in between her eyebrows, in the middle of her chest, and in the center of her belly. The golden core was finished while three acupoints had been unblocked!

Tink… The Purple Green Treasure Sword in Zhao Yanzi’s body echoed!

Exhaling deeply, Hao Ren turned jelly while he placed his hand on his chest. It was a narrow escape…

Collapsing on the bed limply, Zhao Yanzi was exhausted. Instead of feeling energetic with the breakthrough and rushing out of the cave abode to yell in ecstasy, Zhao Yanzi felt like all her strength had been sucked out.

Hao Ren patted his forehead and leaned over to touch her forehead.

With widened eyes, Zhao Yanzi looked at Hao Ren with happiness and satisfaction. Her round shoulders were damped with sweat, looking tempting.

There was a faint expectation in her eyes as if she were hoping for something.

Hao Ren lowered his head and bit her small lips gently.

Exhaling, Zhao Yanzi thought, “I wanted him to bring me a glass of water. What’s he doing…”

However, when Hao Ren kissed her, her heart raced. While she tried to hide her body in the quilt shyly, she bit on Hao Ren’s tongue with pleasure.

With half of his body on the stone bed, Hao Ren’s right hand moved slowly from her waist toward her soft and tender belly.

Zhao Yanzi’s body tensed up like a small fish that was caught.

“Erm?!” Her eyes widened when she felt Hao Ren’s hand going into the damp quilt and reaching for her chest!

This time she was naked!

The round part was held in his hand, and the most sensitive spot was touched. Zhao Yanzi’s shoulder shook, and she sprung to the stone wall behind her like a spring and slapping off Hao Ren’s hand with her smooth hand.

“You…are a pervert!” Zhao Yanzi glared at Hao Ren with a red face.

Hao Ren lowered his head with a smile and slapped his neck several times since he couldn’t say anything about it.

Zhao Yanzi pulled up the quilt in a hurry and yelled suddenly after taking a glance.
