Chapter 6: Bottleneck of Body Tempering

He returned to Yunmei's room, gently pushed the door open, and seeing the beauty still unconscious in bed, Xiao Yichen did not delay any longer.

He walked to the bed, gently helped Yunmei up and leaned her against the headboard, opened the medicine bottle in his hand, and a pill with a faint fragrance fell into his palm.

He slowly sat down next to Yunmei and gently put the pill into her mouth. The moment the pill entered her mouth, it immediately turned into a pool of purple spiritual liquid and flowed into her body along Yunmei's throat.

After a while, Yunmei's body on the bed began to emit a faint light. The exposed wounds on her body were healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. After a while, they scabbed and fell off. Yunmei frowned, thinking that external injuries were easy to treat, but internal injuries would require some torture.

Gently laying her back down on the bed, Xiao Yichen slowly walked out of the room and headed towards the waterfall.

"It delayed the whole day. Oh, women really are the cause of trouble... They have such a miserable life..." She shook her head and her pace began to slowly quicken.

We soon arrived at the valley, warmed up briefly, and ran towards the rocks under the waterfall.

An hour later, Xiao Yichen slowly walked down the rocks with a frown on his face. Now he could easily move freely under the impact of the waterfall. Not only had his physique been strengthened, but even the stability of his lower body had become very solid through day-to-day practice. However, he could not take another step forward in his cultivation level.

"This isn't a solution. I don't know when I can break through to the Body Tempering Stage. I always feel like something's missing."

He has been stuck at the bottleneck between mortals and immortal cultivators for some time. He is just one step away from a successful breakthrough, but he doesn't know how to find that little bit.

"Oh, it seems I have to find a chance to go to the Sutra Library. If I keep dragging it on like this, I'm afraid I'll be stuck at this bottleneck." Shaking his head, Xiao Yichen rushed towards the stone again. Although the progress was not very obvious, he could still slightly enhance his physical fitness.

In this way, he did another set of radio gymnastics under the waterfall, and then slowly returned to his room.

As he walked into his room and reached the bed, a figure hiding in the dark pounced onto the bed. Xiao Yichen sighed in his heart, knowing without a doubt that it must be Yun Mei who had woken up.

Sure enough, when he saw the phantom on his body clearly, Yun Mei was lying on his chest with a smile on her face, her hands tightly holding his waist.

"Senior sister, your injury has just healed, you need to rest and recuperate." Xiao Yichen said softly. This senior sister, who was less than three years older than him, always liked to pounce on him when she had a disagreement with him. Her personality was like that of a child who had not grown up yet, and would be extremely excited when facing something he liked.

In fact, after spending such a long time with her, it is impossible for Xiao Yichen not to be attracted. In the previous world, he had never received such a bold and straightforward expression of love from a girl since he was a child. In addition, whether in terms of appearance, cultivation, or attitude towards him, Yunmei is exactly like a girl in love. How could he not like such a perfect partner?

His heart felt like it was being tugged at, and he felt indescribably sad. "It would be great if you didn't treat me as a cauldron." He sighed softly in his heart and gently stroked the beautiful hair of the beauty in front of his chest.

The two of them lay in bed in silence, without saying a word. Yunmei rubbed her head against his chest from time to time. Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.

The next morning, Xiao Yichen woke up from his sleep and found that there was no one beside him. He didn't know when Yun Mei left. He slowly got up and straightened the wrinkles on his clothes. He fell asleep like this last night without taking off his clothes.

She opened the door and slowly walked towards the sect's library. Along the way, nothing new happened. The sisters sat together and talked about the difficulties encountered in cultivation, while the brothers followed them one by one, almost knitting sweaters with wool in their hands, and chuckled.

"This sect where women are superior to men is really interesting. I guess women in the ancient Dragon Kingdom were like this in the previous world." He stopped looking at the group of husbands and continued walking forward.

Soon, he arrived at the entrance of the Sutra Library. Looking at the nine-story building that was stacked up layer by layer, he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart: "How many skills must be densely packed in here? Nine floors can't even hold them all." Suppressing the shock in his heart, he strode towards the door, but was stopped by two senior sisters.

"Junior brother, how come a mortal like you comes to the Sutra Library?" one of them asked him.

Hearing this, Xiao Yichen remembered that the Sutra Library was the most important place in a sect and was not something he could just enter casually. He couldn't say that he was about to break through the Body Tempering Realm, but now he encountered a bottleneck. Wouldn't that be completely exposed?

Just as he was frantically thinking of an excuse, a young girl's voice rang out from behind him: "Let him in. He's here to get the secret manual that Senior Sister Yun had reserved."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yichen turned his head and saw Liu Qingqing smiling at him with her little fangs showing. The two female disciples on guard naturally stepped aside upon hearing this. While Xiao Yichen was still confused, Liu Qingqing pushed him from behind and urged him to go in quickly. In order not to arouse suspicion, he had no choice but to follow Liu Qingqing into the library.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Liu." Xiao Yichen whispered to Liu Qingqing beside him.

Hearing this, Liu Qingqing just looked at him and smiled without saying much. When they reached the stairs, Liu Qingqing waved at him, indicating that she should go up first. After understanding the other party's intention, Xiao Yichen nodded and waved to her. There was no need for him to go to the upper floors now.

He walked to the wooden bookshelf and began to look carefully for the book he wanted, but the library was too big. After searching for half a day, he finally found an introductory introduction to cultivation. The name was also very straightforward, called [Introduction to Cultivation].

With excitement, Xiao Yichen opened the book, which contained a detailed description of each stage and some experiences of breaking through to the next level.

"Books are the golden house, it is really true."

With excitement in his heart, he quickly turned to the page about the mortal's breakthrough to the Body Tempering Realm. There was a lot of nonsense written densely on it, which made him speechless.

"Why are these books so similar to the books from the previous world? A simple word was translated by experts into a bunch of incomprehensible sentences. It's pure nonsense."

But even though he complained, he had to read it word by word, fearing that he would miss an important point. Finally, when he turned to the last page of the chapter and the last paragraph, he found the key to the breakthrough. It read:

"The Body Tempering Realm is the most fundamental realm in the cultivation system. Mortals can approach it infinitely in a short period of time through training. However, most mortals cannot truly break through in their entire lives. This is because the methods of body tempering in the mortal world are too simple. For true cultivators, body tempering requires not only physical training, but also the use of external forces to pummel the body. With the help of external objects, excess impurities are expelled from the body and the flesh is continuously tempered. These external objects can be spiritual energy or some powerful energy from nature..."

Seeing this, Xiao Yichen finally understood where the problem lay. Now he was concentrating on training every day, but he simply couldn't reach the point of further improvement. If he wanted to go further, he could only look for some powerful energy to temper his body.

Putting the book back in its place, Xiao Yichen kept scratching his head, thinking to himself, "Where can I find this energy? According to the records in the book, most cultivators who break through to the Body Tempering Realm are helped by their own masters, using spiritual energy as a tool to temper their bodies, constantly tempering their flesh. But I'm in this situation now, and I don't dare let my senior sister know. What should I do? What should I do?"
