I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head

Chapter 359: Exit Seclusion, Peak Eighth Level of the Energy Refinement Stage

Chu Yunfan’s breakthrough made peoples’ imaginations run wild. They thought of many things. As for Chu Yunfan, he was overjoyed. He had finally broken through. After breaking through to the eighth level of the Energy Refinement Stage, his combat strength could leap to another level.

Chu Yunfan was no longer afraid of anyone in the Energy Refinement Stage. Among the students in the same batch, he had leaped to the next category. And obviously, those in the first category were Dong Fanghao, Jiang Pengfei, Liang Haoyu, and all those who had already stepped into the Acquired Stage.

The difference between these people and ordinary students was like the difference between Heaven and Earth. For example, there was Chu Yuntian. Although he had also stepped into the ninth level of the Energy Refinement Stage, there was still a chasm between him and those in the Acquired Stage. This gap could be crossed in three to five days, but it could also take three to five months.

Three to five months was not a long time for an ordinary person, but for these students who were racing against time, the gap was vast. An ordinary person who could cultivate to his level would naturally be very satisfied. But unfortunately, Chu Yunfan was not satisfied with just this. Moreover, there were many hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the students of the first category.

Therefore, Chu Yunfan was only happy for a moment. He quickly calmed his state of mind and began to cultivate. He discovered that after breaking through to the eighth level of the Energy Refinement Stage, the speed at which his True Energy recovered was much faster than when he was at the seventh level. His overall strength was at least twice as strong as before, and this was just upon crossing the line.

Every level was a leap, and it was the same for every cultivator. It was just that Chu Yunfan’s strength was too strong, so the distance of his leap appeared to be very wide.

After Chu Yunfan continued to cultivate, Chu Yuntian and Chu Xuelian ceased paying attention and continued to cultivate as well. Chu Yunfan’s existence had created a huge mountain in their hearts.

This was psychological trauma. There was one person who was far more powerful than them. These two people were proud and arrogant people. How could they accept this?

Unknowingly, under Chu Yunfan’s stimulation, their cultivation speed had also increased a lot. This was what Chu Haoyue had once said—the importance of a good opponent.

Time passed quickly. Another half a month passed in a flash. For the trio who were cultivating, they had truly experienced what it meant to have no time for cultivation. In this sealed land, there was a fiery red everywhere. They could not distinguish between day and night. Everything was awash in a fiery red.

If it were not for the assistance of high-tech equipment, they would not even know how many days they had spent. Was it half a month? Or a month? Or half a year? Or perhaps a year?

The concept of time had disappeared from their minds.

The three of them had been cultivating in this sealed land for a full month. A month spent here was even better than cultivating outside for two, or even three months.

Chu Yuntian and Chu Xuelian had only been at the initial stage of the ninth and eighth levels of the Energy Refinement Stage respectively. But now, it was completely different. Chu Yuntian was now at the peak of the ninth level of the Energy Refinement Stage and was only half a step away from stepping into the Acquired Stage. However, this half-step might only take half a day, or it might take a month or even a few months. Chu Xuelian had stepped into the ninth level of the Energy Refinement Stage, which was about the same as Chu Yuntian’s realm half a month ago.

Although there was still a big gap, generally speaking, they had caught up with each other. Of course, Chu Xuelian knew that she might still not be a match for Chu Yuntian at the moment.

In a month’s time, both of their cultivations had improved a lot, but neither of them was the slightest bit excited because someone had improved more than the two of them combined in this one month.

This person was none other than Chu Yunfan.

After Chu Yunfan had broken through to the eighth level of the Energy Refinement Stage half a month ago, his aura had become more and more mellow. Slowly, one could no longer see any changes in his appearance.

They understood that Chu Yunfan must have stepped into the peak of the eighth level of the Energy Refinement Stage and cultivated this realm to perfection. That was why he was so mellow.

Chu Xuelian had just stepped into the ninth level of the Energy Refinement Stage a few days ago. In other words, she only stepped into the ninth level of the Energy Refinement Stage a few days earlier than Chu Yunfan.

When Chu Xuelian thought of this, she was unusually depressed. For the first time, she felt a little flustered. It was as if there was a prehistoric beast chasing after her crazily. And in no time at all, it had caught up to her. It was enough to swallow her whole.

The only person who was more depressed than Chu Xuelian was Chu Yuntian. He realized that although he had made a breakthrough and improved, the gap between him and Chu Yunfan had widened. Based on this speed, it would not be long before Chu Yunfan caught up to him.

When Chu Yunfan was called out and informed that the training period had ended, he still had some unfinished business. A month was a long time, but it felt like just a snap of a finger.

In this one month, Chu Yunfan had broken through from the initial seventh-level Energy Refinement Stage to the eighth-level Energy Refinement Stage peak. He had gained a lot. Of course, during this process, he had also expended a lot. He estimated that with all the various resources added up, he had consumed at least 20 million. When Chu Yunfan was cultivating, he had not realized how much he had consumed.

The trio walked out of the metal door. The junior leader, Chu Haoyue, was waiting outside the door. When he saw that the three of them were in a completely new state compared to before they entered, he nodded his head in satisfaction. He said, “Not bad. You three have made significant improvements.”

When he saw Chu Yunfan, Chu Haoyue’s eyes lit up. With his cultivation, he could see that Chu Yunfan’s breakthrough and gains were the greatest amongst the trio. According to this rate of progress, stepping into the ninth level of the Energy Refinement Stage would be as easy as flipping one’s hand.

Although no one had broken through to the Acquired Stage, this was already considered pretty good. It was not in vain that the Chus had invested so much in nurturing the three of them.

“All right, I won’t say much else. Go home and get some rest. Federation University will be starting classes in a few days,” Chu Haoyue said, “Oh right, Chu Yunfan, Chu Yuntian and Chu Xuelian have already secured their instructors. You don’t have your own yet, so there’ll be a contest for instructors in a few days. Perform well and bring glory to our family. The more outstanding you perform, the more outstanding your future instructors will be. That’s all I have to say. Do your best.”

“Understood,” Chu Yunfan said confidently.

Teacher contest, here I come!

And Chu Yunfan only had one goal, and that is to be the champion!
