Chapter 80: Continue To Breakthrough.

“Cultivation in the Arhat Realm is really difficult.”
“It took me a year to reach Peak 2nd Heavenly Layer.”
Su Qin sighed.
At this moment, Su Qin’s True Essence was like a large river, flowing vigorously.
At this level, he had completely separated from the scope of human beings.
“Since I’m now at the Peak, how about we breakthrough?” Su Qin thought.
In the Nine Layers Heavenly Layers, the gap between every layer is far beyond compared to the gaps in the 9 Grades.
“No, let’s not rush…”
“Let’s wait a bit longer before attempting to break through.”
In the end, Su Qin decided to not be hasty.
Compared to the Cultivation in the 9 Grades, Arhat Realm involves the control of the Power of the Heavens and Earth, requiring more caution.
In the 9 Grades, even if something goes wrong with his Cultivation, Su Qin can rely on his powerful Body to resist it.
But in the Arhat Realm…
If something goes wrong, the impact on Su Qin will be very large.
Hence, even though Su Qin thinks that he is already at the Peak, he will allocate more time to rest and adjust.
Anyway, Su Qin is different from those old farts who are close to the end of their lifespan. He still has more than 700 years of time.
3 months later.
Su Qin had adjusted his state to his best condition.
“I can now break through.”
Su Qin sat cross-legged in the Back Mountain Forbidden Area.
His True Essence then began to operate according to the [Past Amitabha Sutra].
Shuaa~
The Back Mountain once again had a World’s Essence Qi storm brewing on top of it, and it continued to move towards all directions, spreading much farther away.
Soon, the storm appeared above the Shaolin Temple.
It’s just that the disciples in the Shaolin Temple were now obviously used to it, and they did not make any fuss about it.
After all, in the past few years, such a phenomenon has occurred more than once. It has happened enough times, that even the most timid disciple finds it not surprising anymore.
“Venerable has broken through again…”
No matter how numb the Court Heads were to this, they still couldn’t help but feel some shock.
Didn’t the Shaolin Temple’s ancient books record that Cultivation in the Arhat Realm is as difficult as heavenly ascension?
How come, to Su Qin, breaking through was as easy as eating and drinking?
…
Back Mountain.
Along with the funnel of World’s Essence Qi, there’s also the Glazed Golden Cores that were constantly being stuffed into Su Qin’s mouth as if they were jelly beans.
Su Qin’s breakthrough was gradually coming to an end, and after a while…
“I’m now at the 3rd Heavenly Layer.” Su Qin opened his eyes, and a trace of joy appeared on his face.
This breakthrough was as expected, and there are no unexpected surprises along the way.
“This feeling…” Su Qin took a long breath.
When he reached Peak 2nd Heavenly Layer, his strength doubled compared to when he just entered the 2nd Heavenly Layer. What about now that he reached the 3rd Heavenly Layer?
Su Qin can clearly feel the huge power within his body. He felt like he could break the void itself.
Of course, Su Qin knew in his heart that this was just an illusion after his power skyrocketed. After all, let alone a 3rd Heavenly Layer Arhat, even the most invincible 8th Heavenly Layer Arhat could not penetrate the void.
After breaking through and stepping into the 3rd Heavenly Layer, Su Qin did not become complacent, and still kept Cultivating day after day.
During this period of time, Abbot Hui Wen officially announced Xuan Ku as the Holy Son of this Shaolin Temple’s generation.
Regarding this proclamation, no one in the younger generation objected.
Over the years, they have watched Xuan Ku become a Martial Artist in the Middle Realm, and they were naturally convinced of his prowess.
Those from the ‘True’ generation are one generation older than the ‘Profound’ generation, but most of them were hovering in the Lower Realm. This was even more true to those from the ‘Profound’ generation.
However, Xuan Ku was an exception. He was already at the Middle Realm completely surpassing the generation older than him.
In addition, Xuan Ku is often guided by the Venerable…
In the entire Shaolin Temple, no one thinks of Xuan Ku as ‘not worthy’ to be the Holy Son of the Shaolin Temple. The facts speak for themselves after all.
On this day, Xuan Ku came to the Back Mountain and sought Su Qin.
“Venerable.”
“This disciple is going to go down the mountain and enter the world.”
Xuan Ku stood respectfully in front of Su Qin, and said in a low voice.
“Go down the mountain and enter the world?” Su Qin glanced at Xuan Ku, and a smile appeared on his face.
“Yes.”
Xuan Ku replied earnestly: “It is recorded in the Buddhist scriptures that there are great temptations and risks in the outside world, however it is only through surviving in the outside world can you pass the Sea of Bitterness and reach the other side.”
“This matter relates to you. Whatever your decision may be, do as you see fit.” Su Qin shook his head and said.
In fact, even if Xuan Ku does not plan to go down the mountain, Su Qin will let him go down the mountain in a few years anyways.
As A Great Sect, what does the Shaolin Temple rely on?
The Buddhist scriptures?
Divine Arts?
Stop joking.
The Shaolin Temple was able to stand tall in the world and become First among the Fourth Buddha Sects because it has always depended on strength!
If they had no strength, the Shaolin Temple would have been extinguished many times already.
And if you want to improve your strength, you can’t just immerse yourself in hard practice and training. More importantly, you have to travel down the mountain and meet with other Martial Artists in the outside world.
This is why in every generation of the Shaolin Temple, they will send disciples down the mountain.
One is to promote the reputation of the Shaolin Temple, and the other is to ‘train’ the disciples.
This method or tradition is not only limited to the Shaolin Temple, but all the Big Sects in the world were basically doing the same thing. For example, the Wudang Mountain True Martial Lineage sent the Direct Disciple of Daoist Zhang down the mountain and that disciple ‘took’ the world with his sword.
“Many thanks Venerable.”
When Xuan Ku heard that Su Qin had no objection, he quickly replied.
“Okay, you can go.” Su Qin waved his hand and said.
“Yes.” Xuan Ku immediately and respectfully exited the Back Mountain.
…
Late at night.
The full moon hung high in the sky.
“My Sign in is now refreshed.” Su Qin’s body flashed and he appeared outside the Bodhi Court.
The Bodhi Court is the place where the Shaolin Temple’s medicinal pills are produced. It can be called one of the most important places in the Shaolin Temple. There were a large number of patrolling monks guarding it twelve hours a day.
It’s just that with Su Qin’s strength, even if he walked in front of these patrolling monks, they wouldn’t find him.
“System, Sign In.” Su Qin stood in front of the Bodhi Court and said in his heart.
[Congratulations!]
[Sign In successfully!]
[Obtained the ‘Nine Revolutions Whirling Pill’!]
“Nine Revolutions Whirling Pill?” Su Qin’s eyes lit up.
The Nine Revolutions Whirling Pill is just like the Glazed Golden Core, but it’s an Arhat-level Holy Pill and was obviously much stronger.
The medicinal power of the Nine Revolutions Whirling Pill is dozens times more than that of a Glazed Golden Core.
If the Glazed Golden Core is like a slow stream, then the Nine Revolutions Whirling Pill is like a surging river.
This is why Su Qin has been taking Glazed Golden Cores instead of Nine Revolutions Whirling Pill over the years. Because his Body cannot withstand the violent medical power of the Nine Revolutions Whirling Pill.
“Now that I have entered the 3rd Heavenly Layer, can I try taking a Nine Revolutions Whirling Pill?” Su Qin thought.
