The Post Sky Tipping Era

Inside the Cultivation House.

Cosmic energy converged around Li Yi, forming a glowing halo that made him appear like a Buddha or Bodhisattva seated majestically upon a lotus platform. As the cosmic energy was continuously absorbed into his body, his physique underwent ongoing evolution and transformation during this period. Not only had his Qi-Blood become robust once more, but even his silver Divine Bloodline grew increasingly potent.

Of course, the cost of this progress was not insignificant—he alone consumed twenty Extraordinary Creatures at the Soul Realm level.

If not for having sufficient prey stored in his Storage Magical Artifact, Li Yi might be starving by now. At this rate of food consumption, he estimated it would lead to a food shortage in about three months.

However, the gains outweighed the expenditure.

Over the course of ten days, Li Yi’s cultivation advanced further, successfully illuminating the twelfth acupoint.

After this breakthrough, he once again felt his physical limits. To take another step forward would require even greater time and effort than before. He could only imagine how challenging it would be to open all 365 acupoints, both large and small.

"Thankfully, Evolution and Divine Martial Path can be cultivated concurrently. Though demanding, the progress is substantial. However, the resources consumed with every step forward are astonishing. Before exhausting this batch of food supplies, I must find better substitutes," Li Yi thought. Suddenly, his silver eyes glowed brightly as he opened them. His entire body radiated a faint luminescence, as if light was faintly swirling across his skin.

The drawback of dual cultivation was that Li Yi had to simultaneously absorb cosmic energy to stimulate physical evolution while consuming food to replenish Qi-Blood and nurture his Divine Bloodline—both indispensable.

"I’ll recuperate for a while and then prepare for the next cross-dimensional venture. If crossing dimensions proves impossible, I’ll journey to the Barbaric World once more, locate Merchant Lord Xiu Xiang, thicken my skin, and seek his sponsorship. With the cultivators from Xuanxian Continent flooding in, the circumstances are becoming increasingly dire. There’s no room for procrastination."

Li Yi mused inwardly.
