Sole Sword Supremacy

Chapter 42: Realm-Breaking Overnight


Buzz!

At the moment of Opening Veins, Wang Junze instantly felt a roaring sound erupt within his body. True Qi naturally completed a Great Cycle inside, uncontrollably initiating Realm-Breaking directly!

Normally, after Opening Veins, one can choose when to break through, like Wang Junze who had opened 81 veins earlier but did not choose to advance and stayed in the Meridian Opening Realm. But now, when all the meridians in his body are opened, with Hundred Meridians Opening, it was no longer controllable, and naturally began breaking through.

Startled in his heart, the next moment, Wang Junze quickly reacted.

Opening Veins to break through to Condensing Truth is actually about nurturing the meridians, allowing True Qi to circulate throughout the body, filling the meridians—a process that was controllable before because Opening Veins wasn't complete and required manual control to circulate True Qi and complete the cycle.

But now, with Hundred Meridians Opening, there's no need to control; True Qi can circulate on its own, completing the cycle. Naturally, it can't be controlled and directly pushes cultivation towards breakthrough to the Condensing Realm.

A full vessel overflows; it's as simple as that.

Of course, Wang Junze couldn't spare any thought for these things now!

Direct Realm-Breaking means absorbing more spiritual energy to condense True Qi. This process is equally crucial: missing this opportunity requires several times or even a dozen times the time to make up for it later.

Fortunately, just now, Lu Qing smashed hundreds of Spirit Stones at once, and a lot of spiritual energy still lingered around, now allowing Wang Junze to quickly devour it and merge into the meridians within his body.

"Hey, this kid, he's really impatient!"

Su Yuwei and Lu Qing quickly sensed the changes happening to Wang Junze.

Of course, they naturally didn't know Wang Junze was being forced to break through, only assuming he chose to directly advance in excitement after successfully Opening Veins.

"Perhaps not necessarily impatient. Now his Opening Veins should have already reached the limit, even delaying further would bring no improvement. So it's better to seize this opportunity to directly break through." Nodding, Su Yuwei said softly, "Moreover, with us by his side now, should anything happen, we can assist him promptly; at the very least, he won't be short of cultivation resources."

"...This kid's really clung onto us?" Hearing this, Lu Qing rolled his eyes and laughed, cursing.

"You watch, bring him to see me tomorrow."

Not paying attention to Lu Qing, Su Yuwei turned around and left directly.

It's not yet dawn and still raining; she naturally had no patience to wait here, so she handed things over to Lu Qing.

"...You brat, you wait for me!"

Lu Qing naturally didn't dare to stop Su Yuwei. However, turning his gaze toward Wang Junze, his expression became somewhat unfriendly; this rascal kid's urgency to break through made him stay here, thus bullying the honest man!

Though cursing, Lu Qing didn't mind too much since it's just Opening Veins breaking through to Condensing, which wouldn't take long to finish.

However, after waiting for a while, Lu Qing felt something was off.

The spiritual energy released from those hundreds of Spirit Stones was quickly devoured by Wang Junze, and the absorption speed didn't slow down, meaning…the surrounding spiritual energy was actually insufficient for this kid's absorption!

Eye twitching, Lu Qing couldn't help but mutter to himself, "He really clung onto me?"

While speaking, Lu Qing flipped his wrist, and over a hundred Spirit Stones flew out, which he similarly shattered with Sword Qi, hurling toward Wang Junze's position.

Yet, what shocked Lu Qing was that these over a hundred Spirit Stones barely lasted a quarter of an hour before being completely absorbed again.

"Alright, let's see how much spiritual energy you can absorb!"

Fetching another two hundred Spirit Stones, shattering and throwing them, Lu Qing cursed exasperatedly.

But soon Lu Qing realized Wang Junze's body seemed like a bottomless pit; no matter how much spiritual energy surrounded him, it could all be swallowed, with no visible end.

Unconsciously, the torrential rain gradually ceased, and even a sliver of dawn light appeared!

During this process, Lu Qing had invested over a thousand Spirit Stones, not counting the hundreds of Spirit Stones used initially for Opening Veins—such consumption was dreadfully terrifying!

Lu Qing didn't mind those Spirit Stones, but the implications behind it made his heart tremble with fear.

Just how many meridians did he open?!

Seventy-two? Eighty-one? Surely not ninety?!

Lu Qing was once considered a genius himself, having opened sixty-three meridians, and when breaking through to Condensing Truth, the spiritual energy cost was at most two or three hundred Spirit Stones. But how many has Wang Junze devoured now? At least six or seven times his amount; even if opening more meridians requires more spiritual energy, this seems way too exaggerated!

Sigh!

After the last wisp of spiritual energy was absorbed into his body's meridians, Wang Junze finally opened his eyes slowly.

Raising his head, he saw the sun rising, indeed revealing a post-rain clear sky.

The light of the early sun fell on Wang Junze, looking exceptionally good.

A night, Realm-Breaking.
