Hearing this, Hong Minghu immediately looked toward Bai Luoyu.
"Patrol Envoy, you see..."
At the same time, he saw Bai Luoyu raise his head to look at the sky above the east courtyard, his gaze slightly condensed.
"Sun Essence Qi descending from the clouds, a most authentic Daoist Inner Strength technique!" Bai Luoyu exclaimed with astonishment.
"Patrol Envoy, what... is Sun Essence Qi?" Hong Minghu followed Bai Luoyu’s gaze but saw nothing but empty sky, his face a picture of perplexity.
Behind him, Xiao Emei looked as well, similarly clueless.
But in Bai Luoyu’s eyes, he saw strands of crimson Sun Essence Qi falling from the clouds, directly into the east courtyard where Jiang Ning was.
"Why can’t I see it, Master Bai?" Xiao Emei spoke up at this moment.
Bai Luoyu retracted his gaze, his tone flat, "It’s normal! You do not possess an Immortal Root, nor are you innately spiritually wise, so naturally you cannot perceive certain special energies between heaven and earth."
While speaking, he looked toward the east courtyard where Jiang Ning was.
He didn’t need to guess to know that the absorption and expulsion of the Sun Essence Qi must be coming from Jiang Ning, the man he was to meet today.
This was also the only possibility.
It also meant that Jiang Ning was a fellow cultivator like himself.
Thinking of this, Bai Luoyu couldn’t help but open his folding fan and gently sway it.
The dignity fanned out lifted the two tufts of hair on his forehead gently.
"It’s alright, madam, we’ll just wait here, we can go over after Commander Jiang finishes his practice."
Liuu Wanwan apologized with a look of regret," I’ve neglected the distinguished guests, please come inside and have some tea!"
"Sure!" Bai Luoyu said with a smile, stepping over the threshold, his folding fan waving gently, clearly in a good mood.
Hong Minghu and Xiao Emei, seeing this, quickly followed suit.
...
Noon.
Having refined the last strand of Sun Essence Qi within his viscera.
[Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill EXP +1]
Jiang Ning then slowly opened his eyes.
[Skill]: Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill (small success 3333/5000)
Looking at the panel, the progress had increased a bit more after two hours of refinement.
He then closed the panel and got up to walk outside.
"Master!"
Lv Yi, who had been waiting outside, hurriedly greeted Jiang Ning with respect.
"Let’s go, to the hall, we have honored guests!" Jiang Ning said.
"Yes, master!" Lv Yi, upon hearing the order, quickly followed Jiang Ning’s steps.
At this moment, excitement stirred within Jiang Ning.
Just now, while he was breathing in the Sun Essence Qi, he had heard noises at the front courtyard gate.
He also knew that this Master Bai was a significant figure from Dongling City.
His arrival signified that the rewards for the merits he had established were at hand.
Defending the city, killing enemies, the execution of Li Hong.
Three achievements to his name, the rewards from above must be extremely generous.
These rewards were also extremely important to him at this time.
Although he had the panel, he still needed the sustenance of resources. Sёarᴄh the NovelZone.fun website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Especially reaching this step now, he could clearly feel that the speed of strength growth was not as rapid as before.
He needed more careful and steady effort to improve.
Under these circumstances, if he had external aids, his growth rate could be much faster, and his strength would enhance significantly.
Just like now, Source Energy Points had long become the key to limiting his strength progress.
On the panel, Chopping Wood Blade Skill and Swimming had long satisfied the Experience Value needed for the next Break Limit, lacking only Source Energy Points.
As long as the Source Energy Points were sufficient, his Saber Technique would become stronger and would have many more traits.
The enhancement of Swimming would greatly improve his advantage in water.
Entering the water was his escape route and a hidden card that remained unknown to others so far.
If his combat power was considered a 1 in normal circumstances.
But once he entered the water, the domain would become his, capable of trapping and killing enemies.
He would also have no fear of any consumption; in the water, his Inner Breath could burst forth for days on end without depleting.
With such enhancements, his combat power would at least double.
His survival ability would increase many folds.
