Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

In fact, Chu Yunfan had already guessed this outcome.

After all, the human body has its limits, and strength cannot increase indefinitely.

It's like a one-liter water glass; no matter what, it can only hold a maximum of one liter of water.

This is an ironclad rule that cannot be broken.

To hold more water, you need to upgrade the cup to a two-liter cup.

The same applies to cultivation.

If Chu Yunfan wants to continue to increase his power, he must upgrade himself, which is commonly known as breaking through.

This is the significance of the existence of higher realms in cultivation.

It is a threshold; only by crossing this threshold can a cultivator's strength continue to grow and see a broader future.

Of course, the threshold is not so easy to cross; it depends on individual talent and opportunity.

Therefore, some people, lacking talent and opportunities, may remain at the initial stage of martial arts even after cultivating for ten thousand years, ultimately becoming nothing more than a worthless nobody.

Of course, this was not the case for Chu Yunfan.

With a thought, he relaxed the suppression of the power within his body.

Then, a powerful aura erupted from his body, and a gust of wind instantly surged within a hundred meters, causing nearby trees that were over ten meters tall to sway and tilt.

That's right, Chu Yunfan broke through to the Martial Master realm just like that.

This process is as simple as eating and drinking, and can be completed in one go.

If some old men who are stuck in the Martial Beginner Realm their whole lives and can't break through to the Martial Master Realm saw this, they would probably be so angry that they would vomit blood.

However, Chu Yunfan, the protagonist who was breaking through at this moment, had no mind to pay attention to anything else.

He focused all his attention on his own body.

Suddenly, a bright light appeared in the previously empty area of ​​his dantian.

Then, the light grew larger and larger until it became the size of a lake.

The dantian is a very magical place; although it is inside the human body, it is not.

To be precise, the dantian in the human body is merely an entrance to the true dantian space.

Therefore, the actual volume of Chu Yunfan's dantian space can become as large as a lake, countless times larger than his own body.

Of course, there are three main reasons why Chu Yunfan's dantian space can become so large.

First and foremost, his talent for cultivation is exceptionally high.

The level of a person's talent for cultivation determines the size of their dantian when they break through to the Martial Master realm, thus determining their future cultivation ceiling.

Secondly, Chu Yunfan's cultivation technique was advanced enough to fully unleash his talent for cultivation.

This is why geniuses all want to join major sects.

Even if someone has great talent, without a major sect to provide good cultivation techniques, that talent will be wasted, and they will eventually become just another ordinary person.

Finally, and importantly, Chu Yunfan honed his cultivation to a sufficiently solid level during his initial Martial Realm, which provided him with enough power to open up a dantian space the size of a lake.

It's important to understand that before reaching the Martial Master realm, the dantian space within the human body is essentially empty.

To open up the dantian space, one naturally needs the support of power.

Just like reclaiming wasteland, you need strength to do it; otherwise, wasteland won't turn into fertile land on its own.

It is worth mentioning that, theoretically, the dantian space can be expanded infinitely.

However, the extent to which it can expand depends on the individual cultivator's abilities.

Generally speaking, when an ordinary person breaks through to the Martial Master realm, their dantian space will only be about the size of a water tank.

The economic base determines the superstructure. The dantian space of a martial arts master is only so big. Even after cultivating to the end, it cannot be expanded much, unless there is a heaven-defying opportunity to modify the dantian.

But someone like Chu Yunfan, whose dantian space is the size of a lake as soon as he breaks through, is already at the peak of others from the very beginning.

Only people like this have unlimited potential for the future.

Therefore, cultivation is a very cruel thing.

From birth, one's talents determine their future.

Apart from a few exceptionally fortunate individuals, most people with ordinary talents are destined to remain at the bottom of society for their entire lives, subjected to the whims of others and treated like slaves.

They are even worse than cattle and horses.

Of course, all of this had nothing to do with Chu Yunfan.

Because of him, the future holds infinite possibilities.

At this moment, he is receiving the baptism of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The so-called baptism of spiritual energy of heaven and earth refers to the process where, when a cultivator breaks through to a higher realm, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is drawn into the cultivator's body by some unseen force, transforming and enhancing the cultivator's physique and providing greater power.

At that moment, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a ten-kilometer radius of Chu Yunfan's body began to flow and surge towards him.

In a short while, a vortex formed above Chu Yunfan's head, continuously drawing in the surrounding spiritual energy from heaven and earth into his body.

Chu Yunfan's internal energy, cultivated during his initial Martial Realm, had already been completely depleted by opening up his dantian.

However, now, even more powerful spiritual energy from heaven and earth surged into his body, and was instantly refined by Chu Yunfan through the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic," becoming Chu Yunfan's own spiritual energy.

Chu Yunfan's previously empty dantian suddenly began to drizzle.

These raindrops are the spiritual energy that Chu Yunfan has refined.

However, compared to Chu Yunfan's dantian, which is the size of a lake, these spiritual energy raindrops are really just a drizzle and not enough at all.

It should be understood that the time for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cleanse the body is limited, and this process cannot be allowed to continue indefinitely.

Chu Yunfan clearly understood this problem, and he roared angrily:

"Suck it for me!"

He then devoted himself to circulating the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Instantly, the vortex above his head began to increase in size rapidly, and soon it became the size of a tornado.

At the same time, the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth began to surge violently, rushing into Chu Yunfan's body.

Previously, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth entered Chu Yunfan's body in the form of water droplets.

Now, it has become a water tap, and the flow rate has increased many times over.

Chu Yunfan's body was also stretched by this enormous spiritual power, making it swell up like an inflated balloon.

However, Chu Yunfan still felt it wasn't enough. His veins bulged all over his body, and he increased the speed at which he circulated his cultivation technique.

Meanwhile, the commotion caused by Chu Yunfan's breakthrough was growing louder and louder.

When he first broke through, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a ten-kilometer radius slowly flowed towards Chu Yunfan.

But now, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of fifty kilometers is surging rapidly toward Chu Yunfan as if it had gone mad.

The rapid surge of spiritual energy from heaven and earth also caused a strong wind to blow across an area within a radius of fifty kilometers.

Some ordinary cultivators who were training in the Azure Demon Mountain Range felt the strong wind and looked around, wondering what had happened.

A small number of martial arts masters who happened to be in this area felt the fluctuations in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the air, and their faces immediately showed expressions of great surprise.

"Has something happened to a treasure nearby? There's such a huge fluctuation in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

Someone spoke up with a look of surprise, and then began to search for the source of the spiritual energy fluctuations.

Besides human cultivators, nearby demonic beasts also sprang into action, beginning their search for the source.

However, some people keenly noticed the difference.

"No! When a treasure is born, it should release its power to the outside world, but now the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is flowing away."

This feeling is that someone is breaking through a major realm and receiving the baptism of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!

Upon hearing this, those around him immediately added:

"If someone really has broken through, such a big commotion means that someone must be breaking through to the Martial Grandmaster realm!"

After saying that, the man showed an envious expression on his face.
