Chapter 201: Spiritual Energy, About to Breakthrough

'Two grains of Spirit Nourishment Powder will not allow my soul to break through to the Spirit Realm, but it will still be able to decrease the gap, so I will take one grain and try it first.'

Looking at the two grains of pale-yellow powder in his hand, and after pondering for a moment, Xiao Ming finally couldn't hold back and with a movement of his mind, a grain of Spirit Nourishment Powder flew out of his palm and then slowly floated in front of him.

Xiao Ming slowly closed his eyes as he stared at this grain of Spirit Nourishment Powder, and as he closed his eyes, a suction force suddenly emerged, and under this suction force, the bright yellowish powder immediately melted and shot straight towards Xiao Ming's forehead, and then disappeared.

When the powder pierced his forehead, Xiao Ming's body shook violently, and his face immediately tensed up, with a vague feeling of pain coming from inside his head.

Xiao Ming frowned tightly, forcing himself to endure the vague pain. In his senses, that grain of Spirit Nourishment Powder was like a bullet, striking and penetrating his soul fiercely.

The sensation of being hit in the soul was not pleasant, but fortunately, the pain did not last long before gradually dissipating.

Only when he felt the pain gradually dissipate did Xiao Ming let out a sigh of relief. However, just as he let out this sigh of relief, he suddenly noticed that a strange fluctuation suddenly permeated the surrounding heaven and earth, and a faint wisp of strange air current penetrated through the fluctuation, and finally slowly entered his forehead.

Along with the entrance of this strange air current, Xiao Ming immediately noticed with surprise that the air current contained within his soul began to grow from nothing to something at an extremely slow rate!

'Is this spiritual energy!?'

Xiao Ming's soul had long since reached the perfection of the Mortal Realm, and it wasn't that he hadn't strived to sense spiritual energy in heaven and earth before, but no matter how he tried to sense it, he couldn't sense the existence of it.

But now, under the effect of this Spirit Nourishment Powder, that kind of spiritual energy, impossible to perceive by ordinary means, was directly absorbed and integrated into his soul.

Xiao Ming was delighted to feel the spiritual energy gradually strengthening within his soul, and only after a moment did he calm down again.

As he calmed his mind, a yellowish grain of light appeared in his mind, and a strange suction force emanated from the grain of light.

This suction force was not strong, but it was as if it had a strange power, pulling a kind of aura, against which countless powerful people could do nothing, from between heaven and earth.

The spiritual energy, as if a chaotic aura was seeping out of space, continuously penetrated into the center of Xiao Ming's eyebrows.

The absorption of this spiritual energy lasted for nearly three hours before the light emitted by the yellowish light grain and the suction force gradually weakened, obviously, this kind of spiritual powder could not last long.

As the light emitted by the grain became fainter and fainter, after a long while, a subtle clicking suddenly sounded in Xiao Ming's mind.

The strange suction force also came to an abrupt end as the spiritual dust broke, and the aura around it immediately dissipated, no matter how Xiao Ming tried to hold it back, it was in vain, and in the end, he could not even feel it.

Sensing this scene, Xiao Ming couldn't help but let out a bitter smile, and could only helplessly walk out of this state.

'Sigh, this Spirit Nourishment Powder is a good thing, but it's just that it's not long-lasting, and the number I possess in my hand is too small, it's said that this Spirit Nourishment Powder is artificially refined, if only I had the method to refine this thing...'

Xiao Ming opened his eyes and looked at the Spirit Nourishment Powder with a bit of reluctance before finally putting it into his storage ring.

There was only one grain of Spirit Nourishment Powder left, so it would be better to put it away and take it out later when there was nothing to do.

Maybe the chances of it showing up in the simulator would be higher.

Speaking of the simulator lottery, Xiao Ming was quite satisfied with the lottery these past few months.

Aside from the few times he was unlucky and drew trash, everything he had gotten could be considered good.

There was an Intermediate Di Dou Technique, "Thunder Falls Nine Heavens".

A silvery-white sword made of a light material, which Xiao Ming had baked with a Heavenly Flame and felt that it was very resistant to burning, so he calculated that it could be used at least until Dou Venerate.

A corpse of a seventh-rank wolf-shaped magical beast.

There was also an ancient high-grade seventh-tier pill recipe that could allow a Dou Ancestor to break through one star, the Mighty Zong Pill recipe.

A sixth-tier pill bottle, Soul Cleansing Pill.

...

Two days passed quickly.

Jia Nan City, located in the Black-Corner Region, was the place where the Jia Nan Academy was located, the sunlight on the sky poured down, shining on the plaque at the entrance of that city, the three slightly ordinary words on it shining with a soothing luster under the sunlight.

Jia Nan City!

When Xiao Ming and his group flew over a mountain peak and gazed at the city at the foot of it, their hearts also felt calm.

"We're finally here!" Zi Yan said happily, this trip had made her suffer a lot, not only did she have to see her sister and her best friend flirting shamelessly all the way back, but she also could not freely eat her favorite snacks.

Because she had eaten too much, she was about to break through, so Xiao Ming directly limited her snack supply.

She was almost starving! But now that they were back at Jia Nan Academy, she could finally have the delicious snacks back!

"Xiao Ming, quickly deliver the pills you promised to give me."

"What's the hurry?" shaking his head, Xiao Ming took out a bunch of bottles and vials from inside his storage ring, which seemed to be more than ten.

These were all refined by Xiao Ming beforehand, as he had purposely refined many more considering Zi Yan's breakthrough, this was in order to allow Zi Yan to ingest as much energy as possible, thus ensuring her breakthrough.

Looking at those bottles and jars, Zi Yan's big purple eyes curved into a crescent moon shape of happiness and she immediately pounced on them, then took the bottles and jars in Xiao Ming's hand and put them in her storage ring.

"Xiao Ming, you are the best!"

"That's right, when haven't I been?" patting Zi Yan's little head, Xiao Ming boasted shamelessly.

Xiao Yi Xian, who was beside him merely smiled as she watched the two play, and just then, Xiao Ming felt a surge of soul fluctuations.

Then a figure, which came from far away, landed on the Amethyst Winged Lion King's back.

"Hahaha, I saw the trail of this Amethyst Winged Lion King from far away, I didn't expect that it was really you, Xiao Ming, who had returned. It's only been a few months since you left on a trip, how come you were willing to come back so soon? If those old men knew, they would probably be happy."

The person who arrived was dressed in a very characteristic blood-red robe, with white hair and a white beard, and although he was smiling, it looked like a stiff smile due to his usual serious character, this person was none other than the Grand Commander of Jia Nan Academy, Wu Tianlang.

"Grand Commander is joking, this time we only went out to do one thing, and we came back as soon as we finished, what's the point of feeling reluctant? On the contrary, I haven't seen you for a few months, and your strength has improved a lot!"
