Chapter 279 - 276: The Most Frustrated Assassin in History
There was no dwelling in Divine Capital for Ye Zhen and the others, so they headed back to the inn they were staying at in the Inner City. It was already nearing midnight.
Upon returning to his own room, after much thought, Ye Zhen could not contain his excitement—he decided that he would take the Spirit Storage Pill now and break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm in one fell swoop.
"Little Cub, go, stand guard for me well!"
With a soft meow, the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub, shrunken to the size of a palm, blended into a corner of Ye Zhen’s room like a black little ghost.
After making all the preparations, Ye Zhen did not rush to consume the Spirit Storage Pill. Instead, he performed his cultivation technique twice, returning his condition to its peak state.
"That should about do it...."
Ye Zhen took out the pigeon egg-sized Spirit Storage Pill, placed it in his mouth, wrapped it with Spiritual Power, and pressed it under his tongue.
The method to consume a Spirit Storage Pill was very particular, not just a matter of swallowing it and expecting to break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm. The Spirit Storage Pill only contains a trace of Innate Bloodline Spiritual Energy, and its main function is to replenish the Innate Bloodline Spiritual Energy within a martial artist’s Innate Bloodline.
Its potential was to be taken only in the critical moment when a Spiritual Power Seed is about to form. If taken too soon or too late, the effectiveness would be greatly diminished.
Ye Zhen began to operate the Five Transition Nourishing Essence Technique, gathering a Spiritual Power Seed, and the Spiritual Power within Ye Zhen’s Dantian started to swell up.
