Chapter 0003: Refining Qi into Essence

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

The entire class was almost fed up with Su Yan, and anyone could feel Teacher Jade's murderous gaze. They all understood Jade's temperament; who would dare to skip class? They should be prepared to face the consequences

Su Yan was at a loss for words, and at present, he could not discern what the Dragon Totem was. He could only focus on his cultivation for the time being. Moreover, he held no significant resentment towards the Dragon Totem; this object could not be understood through common reasoning. For now, he would enshrine it and see what its true nature was.

Where has it gone

Even so, Base Nine frequently encounters beast tide attacks. Throughout the Huaxia Alliance, only Huaxia City is the safest place. The ten major bases are established around Huaxia City, but only those who have awakened are qualified to enter Huaxia City

The soul-shattering roar is not only loud, but also accompanied by a surge of immense memories

Boom

Not correct

His ears roared as if a new world had been opened before him. From that moment on, the vital energy and blood within Su Yan surged, resembling a blazing furnace

Isn't this a humanoid monster

All current cultivation experiences have been derived through exploration

These buildings are indeed quite sturdy, all forged from steel

In the blink of an eye, seven days have passed, and there is not much time left until the major examination. Almost everyone at the Ice and Snow Academy is diligently training and attentively listening to lectures

You old man

How terrifying can the physical body be? Could it possibly be more terrifying than the stars!

Throughout the journey, he was pointed at and whispered about by others. Even just now, he overheard some of Gao Hua's words, which made him feel quite displeased. A century ago, he was considered a prominent figure in the academy and was also an outstanding athlete. How could he now be looked down upon by his classmates? Always unwilling to accept defeat, he suddenly felt a surge of determination!

There is a look of surprise in his heart, this is a method that guides people in their cultivation

In a contest of fists, Su Yan is never afraid of anyone

Global mutations have occurred, and mysterious energy exists between heaven and earth. Humans can absorb this energy to strengthen their physical bodies and transcend the limits of life

The dragon totem shines brilliantly, scattering divine radiance, dazzling and resplendent

"Just like me?" Gao Hua's face changed, filled with shame; this was simply an insult to him

The dragon totem has come to plunder again

The existence of divine and demonic civilizations on Earth was evident in the past, with the initial scriptures serving as the best proof

When he saw the three characters ahead, Su Yan immersed himself in them, studying the scriptures, and spent the entire night organizing the previous text

Regardless, I must get to the bottom of all this. First, I need to find the dean of the Ice and Snow Academy, as they may help unravel some of the mysteries, after all, it was the dean who brought me to the academy for my training

This bandit still knows to leave some for me

Su Yan visualizes the vast sky, visualizes the starry night, and visualizes the great stars of the heavens according to the descriptions in the scriptures

The inscription on the blood-red coffin is the inscription of the bell and ding, but in the end, the bell and ding were swallowed by the true dragon. The dragon totem on my arm is definitely of significant relevance to the true dragon

It is stated above that the first realm of cultivation is the initial realm

At that moment, the dim dragon patterns on Su Yan's arm flared up with a brilliant intensity, scattering golden divine radiance, resembling a dragon totem awakening, vividly alive. The more radiant it became, the weaker the refined essence within Su Yan's body.

All of this left Su Yan completely baffled, indicating that there were certainly some issues he had not clarified.

Su Yan seemed to witness the roar of the ancient true dragon, shattering the stars across the sky, its dragon body piercing through the nine heavens and ten earths, looking down upon the vast firmament

"Hahaha, what a divine and magical era!"

This energy is named the Essence of Heaven and Earth. The first step in cultivation is awakening. Upon successful awakening, the human body undergoes mutation, unlocking potential and continuously absorbing the Essence of Heaven and Earth to grow stronger

So it was him. Gao Hua spat and cursed, saying: "What bad luck, I almost got knocked down by him just now. Who does he think he is, just saying sorry and that's it?"

His body resembled the universe, and Su Yan envisioned the entire cosmos. He attempted this many times, and with his powerful mental strength, each visualization left him extremely fatigued

How dare someone skip Mr. Jared's class? Does this student not realize how many people are outside, eavesdropping on his lectures from beneath the windows?

Did the energy I cultivated before disappear because it was absorbed by the dragon totem? Now that the dragon totem is strong enough, is it passing the scriptures to me?

Focus your mind, circulate energy throughout your body, perceive the universe, absorb energy

The matter of the Dragon Coffin in the Snowy Mountains must not be disclosed

Su Yan's expression was grave; regardless of whether it was due to Zu Yan or the Initial Sutra, before everything was clarified, the matter concerning the Snow Mountain Dragon Coffin must not be disclosed to a second person

Time flies, night falls, and the starlight descends

Su Yan quickly dismissed his distractions, sensing this power, he began to breathe, inhaling and exhaling through his mouth and nose

Su Yan's absorption of energy is astonishing, to the extent that the human body seems to be on the verge of unlocking a seal, awakening an immensely powerful force

As for Su Yan, although he is also an Awakened, the two are simply not comparable

Su Yan smiled helplessly. The dormitory contained only some simple furniture. He took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyes gleaming with anticipation. The era of divine and demonic civilizations had been long yearned for by many in the past!

Su Yan could sense his potential, which was like an endless abyss, unreservedly accepting the essence of heaven and earth, absorbing it all and refining it all

The entire class was instantly stirred. Huaxia Academy, established for a full ninety years, is the first academy of the Huaxia Alliance and also the strongest academy, having produced countless heroes in the era of apocalypse

I am currently an Awakener, belonging to the weakest category

It must be so

What is this? A dense array of characters, arranged within Su Yan's soul, radiating a golden brilliance. Each character appears to be cast from gold, with over ten thousand golden characters imprinted upon Su Yan's soul

At present, he can only understand a portion of it, and he is unable to comprehend the subsequent techniques. The introduction alone is astonishing, referring to the human body as a microcosm and unlocking the potential of countless physical forms. Human potential is limitless, and it can be explored by continuously becoming stronger and tapping into the body's capabilities

However, upon thinking of this, Su Yan shook his head. The Huaxia Alliance should possess a higher level of cultivation method, one that would not be widely disseminated. Perhaps only by joining a higher academy would one be qualified to understand it. Regardless, Su Yan felt that this scripture was extremely powerful

A shadow of a plate sits on the bed, shimmering brilliantly, with a majestic appearance, resembling a deity, exuding an aura of vitality.

Su Yan felt somewhat confused, as it seemed that in the history of the New Era on Earth, there were no cultivation techniques for awakening and practicing

"This kid, does he deserve a beating?" The tall youth, who looked down on everything, instantly became furious. Does he not know who he is? Is an apology all it takes to settle this?

"He is just as much a core member as you are," the young woman said, covering her mouth and giggling.

Su Yan let out a bitter laugh; a bottom-tier awakened one is at most slightly stronger than an ordinary person. However, once awakened, one can continuously absorb the essence of heaven and earth to grow stronger. Su Yan, on the other hand, is an exception

What is this concept? A punch delivers a force of one thousand pounds.

After all, Su Yan is the last among the core members, making it difficult not to gain recognition

The mysterious vital energy that exists between heaven and earth can strengthen the physical body when absorbed; it serves as a great tonic for the human body. As long as one continuously absorbs it, the physical body can keep becoming stronger

He has been teaching for twenty years, and not a single student has ever been absent; this is a source of pride for Jade and also his Achilles' heel

Suddenly, Su Yan thought of his missing parents and his younger sister, and his mood instantly plummeted to the lowest point

"Is this dragon really inside my arm?" Su Yan was left speechless; he knew about the Qilin Arm, but now he possessed the True Dragon Arm?

This is potential, the potential of the awakened.

Su Yan, as if starved for countless years, greedily absorbs the essence of heaven and earth, with energy coursing throughout his body, resulting in a powerful physique

Su Yan continued to try, and after a whole day had passed, he succeeded

Each base has tens of millions of residents

Do not get agitated, stay calm, stay calm

Su Yan stared at the training manual, his eyes wide open, gasping in shock. Ten horse power? If one horse power is now referred to as one hundred jin, then ten horse power would be one thousand jin

Su Yan was filled with excitement; his current predicament was undoubtedly linked to the Snow Mountain Dragon Coffin. The ancient scriptures engraved on the blood-red coffin now miraculously appeared in his mind, and this was also significantly related to the dragon totem

This left him in shock, this is merely the beginning, waiting for his physical body to grow stronger, to become a furnace, transforming into a divine furnace of the starry sky, spewing forth the essence of the cosmos and the divine power of the stars

Su Yan calmed her mind and pondered, but with her current abilities, could she really uncover the events that transpired back then

Living in such an unclear manner makes it very difficult for Su Yan to find peace of mind

Gao Hua's expression did not surprise those around him; he is destined to become a social elite, enjoying endless wealth and prosperity

The mystery within himself filled Su Yan's heart with a strong desire to become stronger; he wanted to uncover the truth behind it all

Gao Hua, this person is none other than the renowned Su Yan from the academy. " A young girl beside the tall youth scoffed, drawing the attention of those around, for Su Yan is indeed a well-known figure.

In that moment when the energy entered his body, Su Yan could clearly perceive that a flame seemed to ignite within him, causing his muscles to tremble with excitement.

Remember this well, the major examination is approaching soon, do you understand? The invigilators for this major examination are formidable individuals from Huaxia Academy

As for the Ice and Snow Academy, since the disappearance of the dean, no one has joined the Huaxia Academy anymore

He was horrified, as he could only breathe through his mouth and nose without any cultivation method. Now, however, all the pores of his body were wide open, and he felt as if he were a furnace, exhaling the essence of heaven and earth, seizing the creation of the universe

Upon arriving at the student dormitory, Su Yan found his accommodation. He pushed open the door to a small room of less than 10 square meters, yet this was already the best dormitory in the college. Only core members were allowed to reside in single rooms!

Buzz

However, it has only been a short while, and he already feels that his spirit is very strong and abundant. Could it be due to the awakening of his memories?

Teacher Jad's expression was grim; there were absences, and shockingly, some students skipped class just before the major exam

So it turns out I, Su Yan, am now a useless person

Oh heavens

Su Yan gradually calmed down, reflecting on his experiences over the past few years. A hundred years ago, Su Yan was born with a naturally strong physique, easily overpowering three to five individuals, showcasing remarkable strength. In this new era, which can be described as the era of divine and demonic civilizations, Su Yan's physical body is also exceptionally powerful

The Awakening Manual states clearly to continuously absorb the essence of heaven and earth to strengthen the physical body, yet now Su Yan has obtained a technique, and he instinctively feels that this technique is extraordinarily terrifying

Initial pass

To know the entire Ice and Snow Academy, there are only a little over 300 core members. However, over the years, Su Yan's strength has remained stagnant, and the teachers have gradually become disappointed in him

Su Yan's fist clenched tightly, as he felt that he existed in a world where the weak are preyed upon by the strong. His intuition told him that the changes on Earth were significantly related to the snow-capped mountains

Look at how powerful this scripture is

You young man, can't you pay attention while walking

Su Yan's visualization changed; a furnace stood tall in the universe, exhaling the essence of heaven and earth. At this moment, Su Yan's physical body seemed to break free from its shackles, with all his pores wide open. In the moment of exhalation, the surging essence of heaven and earth was drawn into Su Yan's body.

Su Yan's eyes narrowed slightly; he had clearly seen a real dragon on his arm just a moment ago, but now it had vanished without a trace

The atmosphere in Class Six, where Su Yan is located, is extremely oppressive. Every student dares not even breathe, fearing to provoke Teacher Jared

Suddenly, he was astonished to discover that the dragon totem had only absorbed the majority of the energy, leaving a small portion unplundered

Su Yan was somewhat excited; the current Earth was completely ignorant of the civilization of gods and demons. Humanity was still in the process of exploration. Although a century had passed, it had only been thirty to forty years since humanity had settled down.

It is this useless person again, does he not know that I, Jade, am the best martial artist in the academy? He actually dares to skip class!

Su Yan was frightened, unleashing a punch with a force of 10,000 pounds

In the past, it would take him at least half an hour to sense the essence of heaven and earth.

Su Yan was excited, his eyes filled with anticipation. Who does not want to become a strong individual? Who does not wish to soar through the skies? Who does not aspire to ascend to the universe and compete with the stars?

Su Yan cursed angrily, as the power he had painstakingly cultivated was completely plundered away

I apologize

Buzz

All of the more than 30,000 students at the Ice and Snow Academy are familiar with the name Su Yan. Three years ago, he was the prominent figure of the academy, receiving focused training and being granted the title of core member, and he was even the first to do so

He is the awakened one, as certain as a nail driven into a board. What is awakening? As the name suggests, it is the breaking of the original limits of life, unlocking the potential of the human body. By absorbing the energy of heaven and earth, the human body will continuously grow stronger, possessing superhuman strength

The body is absorbing this energy and beginning to grow stronger

The night academy is quiet, yet there is a dormitory that emits a soft glow

The tall youth in a white training outfit glared at Su Yan, and one could faintly sense the explosive power surging within him, as if he could tear apart a wild beast.

Faintly, Su Yan discovered the existence of a mysterious energy in the world, and his heart was greatly shaken, it was inconceivable

General awakening successful, possessing the strength of ten horses

Even this time, the commotion it caused was extraordinarily astonishing, as if it had absorbed enough power, the dragon totem became extremely terrifying, resonating with the ancient and primordial aura, embodying the dreadful divine energy of creation and destruction.

Although only a small portion remains, it is already several times faster than his previous cultivation speed

Su Yan could feel the explosive power within his body, akin to a volcano on the verge of eruption

Su Yan's ears rang with a deafening roar, and the piercing pain in his soul nearly caused him to faint; the sound was so real that it could shatter the heavens and split the earth

Comrade Su Yan, the conditions are quite difficult

Su Yan's delicate face was filled with shock; he had studied some of these characters years ago and could confirm that they were the same.

Su Yan carefully observed the cultivation process, and he soon began to try it himself. Closing his eyes and relaxing his entire body, Su Yan's hearing significantly improved in the darkness

Su Yan did not notice that he had bumped into someone, as if he had collided with a human bear, and a stumble nearly caused him to fall.

Too many mysteries were causing Su Yan's head to nearly explode

As he traveled, Su Yan surveyed the Ice and Snow Academy, which spanned an area equivalent to ten football fields, exuding a chilling atmosphere of steel and iron; such a structure could not be easily destroyed even by beasts

From the moment the dragon coffin on the snow-capped mountain was opened, Su Yan beheld this dragon. His current extraordinary experiences may very well be significantly related to this dragon

A future upper class, a social parasite at the very bottom, it is truly lamentable to think about it. Are they not destined for the same fate as Su Yan? The day of the major examination, which will determine their fate, is already just around the corner

Su Yan was clear about his own cultivation issues; the energy within him always inexplicably vanished. As long as this problem was resolved, becoming stronger would not be a difficult task. He had a keen sense that this was related to the dragon totem on his arm

Faintly, the essence of heaven and earth was stirred by his breath, and strands of warm energy began to flow into his body through his mouth and nose

Su Yan's face darkened, as the Dragon Totem was reviving, absorbing the refined energy

Su Yansi had a faint tattoo on his shoulder, but several months ago, only the general outline of the tattoo could be discerned

Days passed one after another as Su Yan tirelessly practiced without rest. During this time, he sought out the dean several times, but unfortunately, the dean had not returned for three years. Su Yan could not help but wonder if the dean's disappearance was somehow related to him.

It is evident that awakening is the threshold to entering high society; once one fails, the future appears bleak.

The New Era is referred to as Awakening, is it not because the cultivation system is not yet perfected

Su Yan carefully examined the manual, which only described ordinary awakened masters. The manual recorded that those at the peak of awakening possessed a strength equivalent to a hundred horses

Su Yan, you must begin to grow stronger now

Su Yan's lips curled into a smile, exhaling the essence of heaven and earth, refining qi into essence

Su Yan apologized and hurriedly left

Who would not want to join Huaxia Academy? However, the number of students who can enter Huaxia Academy each year will never exceed five hundred
