Of course, there is one last reason, that is, it is rare for Qingyang to encounter a cold pool that can be used casually and is not restricted, where you can cultivate and improve your cultivation to your heart's content, and naturally you will not give up casually. Although he really wanted to go out to find the one-horned ghost king as soon as possible, he also knew very well that the matter of the one-horned ghost king was very difficult to handle, if his cultivation was too low, he would not be able to help much, and the higher his cultivation, the more he would contribute, so he had to improve his cultivation as much as possible before this.

These aside, as time goes by, Qingyang's cultivation is also gradually improving, Hantan's cultivation efficiency is amazing, just a few months later, Qingyang's cultivation has broken through from the fourth layer of Jindan to the fifth layer of Jindan, at the beginning of Hantan in the Ghost Valley, Qingyang's cultivation has reached the edge of breakthrough, and now it has been nearly a year, and the breakthrough is also a matter of course.

After that, Qingyang did not relax, but still spent most of his energy on cultivation, his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, and in less than five years, he promoted his cultivation to the sixth layer of Jindan.

After that, Qingyang made persistent efforts, and it took another six years to cultivate to the peak of the sixth layer of Jindan, at this time he finally encountered the bottleneck between the middle stage of Jindan and the late stage of Jindan, and his cultivation stagnated. Qingyang first tried to hit the bottleneck on his own, after a year of accumulation, tried several times, and found that it was too difficult to break through the conventional methods, so Qingyang took a bunch of grapes on the spirit vine of the drunken immortal Huli, as well as the spirit wine that had been treasured for many years to assist. I don't know if Qingyang's cultivation has really reached the time to break through, or if the effect of grapes and spirit wine is really good, this time he successfully broke through to the seventh layer of Jindan and became a late-stage Jindan monk.

On the side of the Gufeng Continent, the cultivation of immortals is developed, there are too many high-level monks, the monks of the late stage of Jindan are nothing, and Qingyang's cultivation is also very inconspicuous, but if you get the Kyushu Continent where Qingyang was originally located, this cultivation will be more terrifying, take the Qingfeng Hall where Qingyang was born, for example, the head Qiyun Zhenren only has the eighth layer of Jindan cultivation, and the other two heads of the Seven Great Immortal Sects, the Yuling Sect Huangming Zhenren and the Jinding Pavilion Jade Hoe Zhenren are also the seventh layer of Jindan, that is to say, if Qingyang's current cultivation is to return to the Kyushu Continent, It is enough to serve as the head of one of the seven immortal sects.

What's even more terrifying is Qingyang's strength, when he was a fourth-layer monk of Jindan before, he was able to fight with a ninth-layer monk of Jindan, and now his cultivation has been promoted to the seventh layer of Jindan, and there is no opponent below Jindan, even if he encounters an ordinary Yuanying monk, he is not afraid at all, with his current strength, I am afraid that no one in the entire Kyushu Continent will be his opponent.

Unconsciously, Qingyang has grown to the point where he had to look up to him at the beginning.

Up to now, Qingyang has been here for a full twelve years, but Soul Su is still alive and well, he can only continue to fulfill his promise and continue to stay in this cold cave to accompany him.

In the past twelve years, not only Qingyang, but also the iron-armed spirit monkey and the alcoholic queen bee have also cultivated in the cold pool, and the three of them consumed at the same time, but the aura in the cold pool has not decreased too much, the consumption is great, and the replenishment is also more, which can be described as a rare feng shui treasure.

After Qingyang continued to stay in the cold pool to cultivate, racing against time to improve his cultivation, in the later stage of Jindan, each layer of cultivation required more aura, from the seventh layer of Jindan to the eighth layer of Jindan, Qingyang took a full eight years, and after the ninth layer of Jindan realm, Qingyang took ten years, that is to say, Qingyang spent the thirtieth year in this cold cave, and his cultivation finally broke through to the nine-layer realm of Jindan, catching up with the original one that required him to pay a huge price, And the ghost dust real person who can only be injured by using the Five Elements Sword Formation.

The ninth layer of Jindan is already the last level of the Jindan realm, as long as you cultivate this layer to perfection, you can try to condense the Yuan Infant. It was the Yuan Infant Period, it used to be a realm that he couldn't even think of, but he didn't expect that he would be so close to him one day.

Outside of cultivation is strength, when Jindan was at the seventh layer before, although Qingyang was not afraid of Yuanying Monk, but when he really faced it, he was still a little weak-hearted, then it was a completely different level, and they could not be compared with each other at all, not to mention others, just from the direct increase in life span of six hundred years, it can be seen how big the gap between the two realms is. But now that his cultivation has reached the ninth layer of Jindan, he will no longer be empty-hearted, not to mention an ordinary Yuanying monk now, even if he is a senior Yuanying second-layer monk, Qingyang has the certainty of a battle.

Qingyang didn't expect that he would be able to retreat and cultivate here for thirty years at once, since he embarked on the road of cultivating immortals to now, Qingyang has retreated countless times, and he has never stayed in one place for so long like this time, Qingyang is only one hundred and thirty years old in total, and these thirty years account for almost a quarter of his life, even more than the time he spent in Qingfeng Hall at the beginning. However, Qingyang also knew that with the improvement of his cultivation, this kind of thing would only increase in the future, and it might take one or two hundred years for ordinary Yuanying Cultivators to improve their cultivation by one or two hundred years, and retreat was a common thing.

In the past thirty years, not only Qingyang's cultivation has improved rapidly, but the Iron Arm Spirit Monkey and the Alcoholic Queen Bee have also progressed, as early as the seventh year of entering the Hantan cultivation, the Iron Arm Spirit Monkey has been promoted to the peak of the eighth order, but the qualifications are limited, and the Iron Arm Spirit Monkey has spent three years unable to advance, and in desperation, Qingyang had to take out the remaining materials when he was refining the Demon Barrier Pill for the Rampant Demon King on Rampant Island.

Now Qingyang's Danshu is not much higher than when he was on Hengxing Island, not to mention the Jindan-level pill, even if it is the Yuanying-level pill, he dares to try it, especially the last time he used the Jiuzi Ghost Lotus Lotus Root to refine the Jindan-level pill in batches, and finally synthesized the Lingying Heshou Pill, which was of great help to Qingyang's Danjutsu improvement, so now refining the Demon Barrier Pill is extremely simple for him.

With the help of Ziyun Tongxiao Ding, Qingyang was full of luck, and with only one material, he successfully refined the Demon Barrier Pill, and then the Iron Arm Spirit Monkey broke through to the ninth order in one fell swoop with the help of this Demon Barrier Pill and became a ninth-order demon beast, and now it has been twenty years, and the strength of the Iron Arm Spirit Monkey has been improved to a level close to the peak of the ninth order, which is about equivalent to the nine-layer Dacheng of the Golden Pill of a human monk, and it is even half a layer higher than Qingyang.

As for the alcoholic queen bee, her strength had reached the peak of the ninth order early, and she was only one step away from advancing again, but she still lacked an opportunity to break through.

For demon beasts, the sixth to seventh orders are a threshold, because if you want to cross the spiritual wisdom tribulation, you can open the spiritual wisdom and become a spiritual demon beast, but you can't cross it to either die or become a demonic beast.
