Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 593 - 588 Chi Jark and Xiao Rulong
Hearing Elder Bai say this, Ye Feng couldn't help nodding in resignation.
Just as Elder Bai said, if the other party had the capability to peer into the secret chamber from the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm and see Ye Feng, then they probably could do something to him as well. If they had wanted to take action, he would likely have already encountered some misfortune.
But having been spied on twice consecutively without sensing any danger, it meant that at the very least, the other party was not an enemy.
Ye Feng shook his head and stopped pondering over it, continuing to sit cross-legged with his eyes shut tight as the Origin Energy around him gathered once more, swiftly being absorbed into his body for cultivation.
However, now even with the absorption of such pure Origin Energy, Ye Feng's cultivation speed remained extremely slow, as each acupoint required a huge amount of Origin Energy to be filled.
Half a day passed, and Ye Feng finally filled up the first acupoint.
Ye Feng examined the condition of his acupoints internally and felt quite helpless; he was left speechless by the speed of his cultivation.
But he had no choice; he could only continue cultivating like this. With not much time left until the selection for the Martial Dao competition for the elite rankings, less than ten days remained. If he went out to hunt Alien Beasts now, his progress would only slow down even more.
On the first day, Ye Feng managed to open two acupoints.
On the second day, Elder Bai told Ye Feng that Xiao Chuanqi had emerged from the Spirit Essence Pool, successfully breaking through and advancing to the Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm. His realm was already stable, and two full days into his cultivation, Xiao Chuanqi was sent out of the Spirit Essence Pool.
Why was he sent out?
Because continuing to absorb would be of little significance. In two days' time, he had already absorbed a large amount of the Power of Spirit Essence. Even the supremely pure Power of Spirit Essence in the pool would not be beneficial for a cultivator if absorbed too much at once.
It's like eating; if you force yourself to eat after you're already full, it's going to cause big problems.
Xiao Chuanqi had already filled his Golden Core in the Spirit Essence Pool and couldn't absorb any more.
Apart from Xiao Chuanqi, Shadow was also transported out. His realm was completely stable, and his Golden Core had absorbed too much Power of Spirit Essence already.
On the other hand, Cao Tian had broken through to the Half-Step Golden Core Realm on the second day.
And Ye Feng had only managed to open a single acupoint on the second day.
On the third day, Sima Zhantian, Leng Wuming, and Gai Jiuyou all broke through to the Grandmasters of the Golden Core Realm and were sent out of the Spirit Essence Pool at the end of the day after stabilizing their realms.
Also breaking through on the third day were Long Nannan and Sausage Sister. Both women advanced, staying half a day longer than Sima Zhantian and the others before being successively transported out.
On the fourth and fifth days, Ye Feng still managed to open just one acupoint per day. In this time frame, even Cao Tian had broken through to the Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm.
On the sixth and seventh days, Ye Feng unfalteringly broke through one acupoint each day, continuing until he reached two thousand eight hundred and ten acupoints, then Ye Feng finally stopped cultivating and slowly opened his eyes.
"This speed is too slow," he said.
A hint of frustration was evident on Ye Feng's face; compared to the first time he cultivated in the secret chamber, his current Speed of Aperture Opening was indeed much slower.
Elder Bai slowly materialized in the chamber, seeing the look of frustration on Ye Feng's face and bowed slightly, saying, "My emperor, do not be disheartened, your speed of opening acupoints is already quite fast."
"To still be able to open an acupoint a day when cultivating the Technique of the Three Thousand Acupoints at a later stage, if the emperor knew, he would likely praise your exceptional talent."
Elder Bai clasped his hands; he wasn't lying. He had almost wanted to cough up blood upon hearing Ye Feng's words just now.
Even the revered emperor, over two thousand years ago, would need several days, even over ten days, to break through a single acupoint after surpassing two thousand eight hundred acupoints.
Yet now, Ye Feng could nearly maintain the pace of one acupoint per day, which was already astonishingly brilliant. If the emperor from over two thousand years ago knew that Ye Feng found this slow, he might just rise from his coffin to seek Ye Feng out.
Though Elder Bai wasn't sure if the emperor had left behind a coffin lid...
Ye Feng wasn't aware of what Elder Bai was thinking, taking his words as comfort.
Ye Feng stood up, glanced at the now somewhat depleted Origin Energy within the chamber, and said, "Elder Bai, please take all of this back."
Upon receiving the command, Elder Bai immediately executed a Dharma Seal. The remaining Origin Energy in the chamber flew back into the surrounding walls and disappeared from sight.
The remaining Origin Energy was not much; Ye Feng estimated that what was left in the chamber would at most allow him to open less than five more acupoints.
He had already used up a massive amount of Origin Energy the first time he entered the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, which allowed him to open more than two hundred acupoints in six days, reaching a total of two thousand eight hundred acupoints.
Now, it was extremely difficult to fill each acupoint; the required amount of Origin Energy was immeasurable.
"The supply of Origin Energy is starting to run low; I need to find better Cultivation Energy. Otherwise, with the current rate of progress, I don't know how long it'll take to break through to two thousand nine hundred acupoints," Ye Feng murmured to himself. He had begun to feel, just like when he absorbed the special energy from the Skeleton Forest, that even this pure Origin Energy was beginning not to suffice.
He had to find a new source of Cultivation Energy.
Ye Feng rubbed his temples and, without dwelling on it further, asked Elder Bai to transport him back to the Martial Arts Training Plaza.
The scenery around him changed, and in a few breaths' time, Ye Feng's figure had appeared on the vast Martial Arts Training Plaza.
At this moment, on the Martial Arts Training Plaza, over a dozen people were sitting cross-legged. Sensing Ye Feng's arrival, everyone opened their eyes one after another.
"My lord!"
"Little Martial Uncle!"
"Ye Feng!"
Everyone on the scene started calling out and stood up.
Ye Feng looked at everyone and revealed a smile. As his gaze swept over them, his smile became even more brilliant—all of them had advanced!
Xiao Chuanqi, Sima Zhantian, and Shadow, along with the six others, as well as Long Nannan and Sausage Sister who had later entered the Outer Battlefield, a total of eight people, were now Grandmasters of the Golden Core Realm!
Futhermore, each person's realm was extremely stable; perhaps Shadow had even experienced combat in the Golden Core Realm. After coming out from the Spirit Essence Pool, not only had their realms become stable, but their aura also seemed much stronger.

"Not bad, now all of you are Grandmasters of the Golden Core Realm. You should have no problem protecting yourselves in the Outer Battlefield,"
Ye Feng said with a light smile.
Indeed, it was about self-preservation. With everyone's realms, they should be able to escape from the vast majority of dangers they encountered in the Outer Battlefield. As long as they didn't enter the Four Great Desolate Lands, Grandmasters of the Golden Core Realm were already among the top forces in the Outer Battlefield. Even if they couldn't overpower their opponents, escaping wouldn't be too difficult.
At the Peak Martial King, one could barely survive in the Outer Battlefield, while cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Realm Divine Path Realm could train there but it was still extremely dangerous. To ensure self-preservation, one had to be a Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm.
If it was a Great Power of the Yin-Yang Realm, then that would be the top force in the Outer Battlefield, truly able to roam freely in that place.
Chi Jark and Xiao Rulong had also awakened by now, and their progress was not insignificant. After all, Ye Feng had specifically set up a formation for them. Although it was not as effective as cultivating in the Spirit Essence Pool, the results were still very good.
"You two have also greatly increased in strength,"
Ye Feng said with a light smile after looking at Chi Jark and Xiao Rulong.
"It's alright. Now, if I encounter that turtle Hong Tianyu, I definitely won't be in such a sorry state,"
Xiao Rulong said as he shook his folding fan, his smile very bright.
In the span of eight days, his progress was definitely not small. There had been a gap between him and Hong Tianyu before, which is why during their clash, although he was able to contend with Hong Tianyu, he ended up injured while Hong Tianyu was basically unscathed after the fight.
Although part of that was due to the Hun Yuan Armor acting like a turtle shell, Hong Tianyu's own strength was also stronger than his, or else he wouldn't have been able to injure him.
At that time, it was only by leveraging the Xiao Family's movement technique that he was able to evade Hong Tianyu's attacks multiple times.
If he had not had the enhancement of his movement technique, he probably would have been severely injured by Hong Tianyu.
But now, after eight days of cultivation, he felt that if he faced Hong Tianyu again, he would be completely capable of fighting on equal footing.
"Xiao Chubby, since you're so confident, how about we spar a bit?"
Chi Jark suddenly said with a heh heh chuckle.
He wanted to know what his current strength was as well. He could feel that his strength had gone up a lot compared to eight days ago. To understand exactly where he stood, a real battle was necessary.
So right now, he wanted to spar with Xiao Rulong to gauge his own strength.
At this moment, Ye Feng suddenly said with a playful tone, "Jark, how about I spar with you instead to see?"
As soon as Chi Jark heard Ye Feng's words, he immediately retreated tens of meters back, looking at Ye Feng with a wary face and immediately warning, "Look here, Ye Feng, don't mess around. I'm not going to fight you; you're not human. Xiao Chubby, hurry over here. Let's spar."
Chi Jark turned his head toward Xiao Rulong, and a silver Battle Armor surfaced on his body. His hand flashed with silver light, and a majestic long spear appeared in his grasp, his aura bursting forth.
In that moment, Chi Jark seemed to transform into a War God clad in silver, his aura awe-inspiring.
Ye Feng raised an eyebrow watching this scene. He sensed a special aura emanating from Chi Jark.
Even he couldn't help but feel an illusion at that moment, as if Chi Jark truly resembled a War God, different from ordinary cultivators.
The others, however, didn't notice anything exceptional. They merely felt that Chi Jark's aura was very powerful and intimidating.
Xiao Rulong laughed heartily as he obviously understood Chi Jark's thoughts, which actually aligned with his own.
"If you seek battle, how can I not accept the challenge?"
Xiao Rulong laughed as he took to the air with his own aura bursting forth, his folding fan put away in his hand as if it were a Divine weapon.
As Xiao Rulong's aura intensified, Ye Feng's expression changed again.
Xiao Rulong's breath also seemed a bit different!
