Chapter 664 Breakthrough to the Second Palace
three days later.
Ye Kang closed the last book and let out a long sigh of relief.
It must be said that Jin Lingfeng's mother was very farsighted; the books she gave him were all basic knowledge, without any obscure books on governance or administration.
She probably felt that her son wasn't cut out for it, so she thought it would be better for him to broaden his horizons.
This is exactly what Ye Kang needs most right now.
After reading it, his understanding of Kyushu and the Wu Dynasty improved considerably.
Strangely, he found no information about Bafang Lingbaozhai, not even the name itself.
There are countless sects throughout the Nine Provinces, but there has never been a sect like this before.
Ye Kang was momentarily confused, but another name appeared many times.
Linglong Chamber of Commerce.
This mysterious merchant guild, which existed in the Great Jin Dynasty, is equally mysterious in the Nine Provinces.
They are everywhere and sell everything. Even the most powerful sects dare not covet this merchant guild in the slightest.
Similarly, no one knows the origin of the Linglong Chamber of Commerce.
Ye Kang roughly judged that both Bafang Lingbaozhai and Linglong Chamber of Commerce were forces outside of Kyushu, and were forces that specialized in doing business.
This put his mind at ease. It seemed that Zhou Fangbi was really lucky; the jade slip he had obtained by chance had now come to his advantage.
Ye Kang carefully put away all the books and then circulated his internal energy to regulate his breathing for a while.
The medicine in my body has been fully absorbed, and my injuries have almost healed.
It must be said that the leaf from that spiritual spring played a crucial role; otherwise, with that kind of injury, he definitely wouldn't have been able to get out of bed for at least two months.
Of course, it's only superficially better; internal injuries can't possibly heal that quickly.
Ye Kang decided to try a different approach to healing.
He sensed his current cultivation level; the first palace of the Nascent Soul stage was completely full, and the crimson Dao Palace in his divine sea shone brightly, having reached perfection in this bloody battle.
It's time to make a push into the second house; with the blessings of heaven and earth, the internal injuries will be swept away.
As he walked out the door, he ran into several civil officials from Windbreak Valley.
Upon seeing Ye Kang, these people immediately ran over with smiles on their faces.
"Commander Ye, congratulations on your recovery."
"You're welcome."
"Commander Ye is a dragon among men in our Windbreak Valley. We are also interested in making his acquaintance. If the commander doesn't mind, how about we have a drink together tonight? I happen to have a few bottles of good wine."
Ye Kang was completely bewildered. What was going on with these people?
I've never seen them this friendly before.
He shook his head and said, "It's not that I'm unwilling, it's just that I'm preparing to make my way to the second house now, and I really don't have the time."
"What! This is already the second palace! How long has the commander been at this level?!"
"Incredible! Such a breakthrough speed is truly admirable."
After offering some compliments, the group remained restrained and did not provoke further trouble, before leaving on their own.
Ye Kang shook his head and walked into the valley.
At this moment, Jin Lingfeng suddenly walked over.
"Is the injury healed?"
Ye Kang nodded and said, "That's about enough. One more breakthrough should be enough. Here are the books back, sir."
Ye Kang took out the book, wrapped it in his true energy, and made it float in the air.
Jin Lingfeng reached out his hand, and with a flash, the rings were all taken away.
"You little rascal, you read books so fast. You're not just skimming through them like I am, are you?"
"My lord, you are wise. I was just passing the time out of boredom. By the way, I am going to the Black Desert to break through my current level, and I need your help to protect me."
"No problem, but there's something troublesome you need to be aware of."
"What's the matter?"
"Let's talk as we walk."
Amidst envious glances, the two flew out of Windbreak Valley.
Jin Lingfeng said, "Didn't I say last time that whoever drives away Kuyue would be rewarded? Li Ben invited his senior brother over for this matter, but in the end, Kuyue was driven away by you, and his senior brother was very dissatisfied."
Ye Kang looked helpless. How could this be attributed to him?
He whispered, "Sir, Instructor Li is your servant. How could he possibly disobey you?"
“He dares! But he’s my father’s informant, so I can’t go too far. His senior brother is also at the Star Luo Realm, so he doesn’t dare to mess with me, but you might not be so lucky.”
"Your Excellency, you must do me justice!"
Ye Kang looked aggrieved and didn't hesitate to use his "cling to someone's coattails" skill.
Jin Lingfeng gave him a disdainful look and said, "Don't worry, no one will dare to touch you here. But when you go to the Three Prefectures, you'll have to be more careful."
Ye Kang nodded without saying much. As long as he had time, it wouldn't be a problem.
The two soon arrived at a deserted sand dune.
Ye Kang looked around and said, "This will do."
"What do you need me to do?"
"Sir, please shield my aura. When I break through, the noise might be a little strange."
"Tch, how strange could a mere Nascent Soul Stage 2 cultivator be?"
Jin Lingfeng didn't care at all and simply sat down on the spot.
A moment later, Ye Kang sat cross-legged and began to circulate the Sacred Ultimate Heaven-Reaching Technique.
The Breaking the Cocoon Technique has been fully deduced, and it is entirely possible to cultivate it to the peak of the Six Palaces.
With a thought, Ye Kang opened his divine sea, and his Dao Palace appeared. Above the Dao Palace, his primordial spirit closed its eyes slightly, surveying the surroundings with disdain.
Jin Lingfeng was dumbfounded when he saw Ye Kang's blood-red Dao Palace.
What the hell is this thing?!
Whose temple is this?!
Before he could react, Ye Kang had a thought, and ten demon blood crystals appeared.
The method of breaking free from the cocoon requires a lot of demon blood to be infused into one's body, forming a blood cocoon.
Unfortunately, Ye Kang had already used up all his essence and blood during his last breakthrough.
However, demon blood crystals can be used as a complete substitute, since blood crystals are formed from the condensation of essence and blood.
Blood crystals have many other uses, so using them in this way is somewhat wasteful.
Ye Kang didn't dwell on the gains or losses of this matter. He directly shattered ten demon blood crystals, which transformed into incomparably pure demon essence blood, covering his entire body from top to bottom.
The next second, rings of essence blood swirled around his body, forming a huge blood cocoon.
The blood cocoon throbbed continuously, like a heart, incredibly vibrant.
Jin Lingfeng was completely shocked.
This method of cultivation is simply unprecedented!
This must be the most demonic of all demonic cultivators!
No, it's not just demonic cultivators. This method of breaking free from the cocoon is the same as that of many demons. Coupled with this extremely strong demonic aura, Jin Lingfeng even began to doubt whether Ye Kang was human or not.
Fifteen minutes passed like this.
Ye Kang felt the time was ripe, and with a thought, the blood cocoon shattered.
Countless blood mists dissipated, and the primordial spirit opened its eyes, waving its hands to weave the prototype of the second Dao Palace.
Then the blood mist rose and merged into the nascent form.
Just then, with a thunderous roar, the second blood-red palace was officially completed!
The second house breakthrough is complete!
A faint sound came from heaven and earth, and blessings rained down upon him.
Ye Kang absorbed the nutrients greedily, and the internal injuries in his body that had not yet healed rapidly healed.
At the same time, his physical strength surged again, and after the transformation and renewal of his true energy, his aura increased dramatically.
