Time is like water, always quietly slipping away through our fingers without us realizing it.

  The sweltering summer has been replaced by the cool autumn, and the lush green branches have also begun to mix with a hint of withered yellow.

  It is still that neat little house, with sunlight pouring in and spots scattered all over.

  In the wooden basin in the house, the young man closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and with each breath, it seemed as if he had become one with nature.

  More than half a year of hard training has added a hint of determination to the young and tender face, with tightly pursed lips that reveal a few hints of stubbornness. The skin as white as a womans has become slightly yellowish after several months of rigorous training, but the small body seems to contain the ferocity of a leopard.

  No matter from what angle to look, the youth seems to be undergoing a metamorphosis at a terrifying speed. When this transformation is complete, it will shock anyone!

  In the extremely smooth breathing of the young man, a thread of green gas mixed with his breath, slowly seeping out from the wooden basin and finally entering his body along with his breath.

  ……

  "Today I will definitely break through to the seventh stage of Dou Zhan Qi!"

  In the midst of his cultivation, a confident thought suddenly emerged in Xiao Yans mind. The thought came out of nowhere, but it was as if it had been there all along, appearing clearly and distinctly in his heart.

  In the previous month, Xiao Yan had charged at the seventh level of the Dou Zhan Qi several times, but without exception, they all ended in failure.

  Perhaps it was because todays cultivation added the last drop of water to that overflowing bucket, that the spiritual light idea that Xiao Yan had been expecting for a long time suddenly appeared.

  A sudden thought made Xiao Yans hand tremble, almost causing him to exit his training state, but fortunately, Xiao Yan had good composure and forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, holding his breath and concentrating, making a great effort to calm his mind.

  Breathing slowly and steadily, Xiao Yan began greedily absorbing external energy in preparation for the seventh segment.

  In the wooden basin, a faintly rippling blue liquid sparkled with iridescent colors, and threads of warm energy flowed out from it, rushing into Xiao Yans body in a hurry.

  A surging tide of pale blue air grew thicker and thicker, and in just an instant, not only did it completely envelop Xiao Yans body, but even the large wooden basin was only faintly visible, looking quite strange from a distance.

  Under Xiao Yans relentless pursuit, the color of the green liquid in the cauldron also began to fade at a visible rate.

  Due to the massive influx of energy, Xiao Yans small face was slightly flushed, and a faint blue light was emanating from him.

  Xiao Yan, who was impacted by the seventh segment of Dou Qi, had undoubtedly become a large magnet. Not only did the surrounding spaces Dou Qi rapidly get absorbed and pulled towards him, but even the light green liquid in the wooden basin started to form small whirlpools.

  The nine stages of Chi Kung are divided into three levels: the lower level consists of the first to third stages, the middle level consists of the fourth to sixth stages, and the higher level consists of the seventh to ninth stages.

  The Seventh Stage of Dou Qi can be said to be the watershed of the initial stage of Dou Qi. As long as one sets foot in the Seventh Stage, they will have entered the higher level of the initial stage. At this time, the Dou Qi stored within their body will be several times that of the Sixth Stage. Therefore, the Seventh Stage of Dou Qi is generally considered to be the first key to becoming a Dou practitioner, and its importance goes without saying.

  Along with the rapid outflow of the blue gas, the color of the blue liquid in the wooden basin became lighter and lighter, until at a certain moment, the blue liquid turned back into a basin of clear and transparent water.

  Without the energy support of the Building Foundation Spirit Liquid, the pale blue color on Xiao Yans face also gradually dimmed. Now, he could only absorb the thin Dou Qi from the surrounding air to maintain his combat strength.

  Although absorbing the aura of the air can also support Xiao Yans completion of the impact, this requires a longer period of time. Moreover, even if he breaks through at that time, the aura in his body will need to be nourished for a month before it can recover to its full state.

  Xiao Yans current greatest shortage is time!

  At the moment when the spiritual liquids medicinal properties disappeared, Xiao Yans black ring on his finger flickered with a faint light. A drop of top-grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Liquid in emerald green color was again injected into the wooden basin. Instantly, the transparent clear water transformed into deep blue once more.

  With the support of a drop of fresh spiritual liquid, Xiao Yans spirit was shaken. After thanking Medicine Old in his heart, he kept his hands sealed while controlling his breath and frantically absorbing the dense energy that came rushing towards him.

  The endless demands continued for a full half hour before finally beginning to subside, and by this time the deep blue liquid had faded several shades.

  When the last strand of warm energy drilled into his body through his breath, Xiao Yans body slightly calmed down, and then suddenly violently shook. His lower abdomen slightly contracted, Xiao Yans eyes suddenly opened wide, and a pale white light flashed rapidly in his dark pupils. His mouth slightly opened, and a mouthful of somewhat murky gas was spat out...

  The turbid air dispersed, and Xiao Yans small face suddenly became spirited.

  Xiao Yan opened his eyes, dazed for a moment. He then twisted his neck, producing a series of crisp cracking sounds from his bones. His palms clenched slightly, and a surge of power flowed through him, causing the corners of his mouth to curve up into a joyful smile.

  "Finally, its the seventh paragraph..."

  He slightly closed his eyes, focused his mind and sensed the abundant aura within his body, then Xiao Yan smiled faintly and muttered to himself.
