Daily life of a cultivation judge

Chapter 675 Transformation of Yang Qing's internal realm

"I am glad the strain on Luo Meili's body seems to have lightened.." Yang Qing muttered in relief as his eyes fell on her retreating figure.

Yang Qing could always tell of the anguish Luo Meili always had, even the tremors she tried to hide. He felt it distinctly the first time they met and every day ever since.

He had even once consulted Ren Shu about it, in fear that something was happening to her only to be told it was her constitution. Without her permission, Ren Shu didn't divulge much and only told him that she would be okay and her situation was continuously being monitored and under control.

Later, when she joined his team, she divulged a bit about her physique, though she downplayed the pain it caused, she did say that being around Yang Qing somehow made it easier for her.

Ren Shu did tell him the effect may have had something to do with the nature of his physique that may have a synchronicity effect with her physique.

Ren Shu's guess was proved to be true, as he could feel the tenseness in Luo Meili's soul and body lessen the more she was around him, especially more recently since the advances he made concerning his physique. Whatever effects it had, they seemed more pronounced now.

"Hopefully when she reaches the palace realm, it will get easier for her or I make more improvements in unearthing the secrets of my physique.." Yang Qing said as he stared at his hands which shone with a faint white lustre with a dark shade beneath it. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the N(o)vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.nᴇt

It wasn't only Luo Meili who had experienced an unexpected harvest. Earlier he had ended up in a trance-like state. The trail of death he saw from the blade of grass seemed to have unknowingly triggered something within him. He wasn't sure if it was his yin-yang jade nature bones, his own Dao, or an amalgamation of both, but something reacted to the scene and a countering force was produced filled with a dense aura of life.

When Yang Qing came to, he found his cultivation had made a skip to the third stage of the palace realm. His internal palace realm had also experienced a change. Before it had the moon, the sun, the ocean, and the green flame tree, but now the ocean had another component within it.

Inside the ocean was an illusory fish that was surrounded by universal light associated with his cultivation art. It was sluggishly swimming about like it didn't have control of its body. The fish had a few peculiarities to it, one of them being even though it was illusory, Yang Qing had this intrinsic feeling that its scales were made from the ethereal jade tree that existed deep within his body.

Another was it didn't seem to have eyes, and the feeling Yang Qing got was it wasn't developed enough yet to form them. But despite its peculiarities, even in its incomplete state, Yang Qing could feel how it was constantly transforming his internal world. The green flame tree had doubled in size, the sun and the moon above felt more real rather than static objects that were hanging above him and as a result of it, the grass growing beneath his green flame tree had increased in number and size, and a few other plants were slowly developing.

Yang Qing spotted the bud of an azalea and oak tree buried in the grass field. He couldn't help but think of the aurora azalea and the restoration oak tree from the former grounds of the Clear Sword River Sect that had accidentally evolved from absorbing his universal qi.

Even the ocean had been affected as a result of the liveliness of the sun and the moon. Its movements were not static. It didn't seem like something preprogrammed, the ebbs and flows had a more natural feel to them, and it finally had a temperature which alternated between cool and warm, as result of the glow of the sun and moon above it.

Yang Qing could even see two pearl-sized clouds forming in the skies above the ocean. One was blue-green, and the other was golden-red.

All these transformations had an effect on Yang Qing. His already absurd quantity of spiritual qi had increased slightly. That slight increase was the equivalent to the maximum quantity of qi a late-stage core formation cultivator with a blue core could have stored within their body.

The intrinsic qualities of his spiritual qi had also been strengthened such as its restorative, regenerative, healing,calming, and purification properties. In addition, he felt somewhat in tune with his physique. He could now feel one of the seals the two illusory figures beneath the jade tree had mentioned and he even knew at what stage it would unlock. It would be when he stepped into the late stage of the palace realm.

The biggest boon to him, however, was his increasing understanding of his own dao, the Vitality Dao. The countless scattered ideas he had were slowly being strung together into something he could use.

Yang Qing rubbed his fingers together dispelling the white light from his palms.

He quickly emptied his mind as he began his meditation. When he finally got up from the meditation, four hours had quickly passed by.

Yang Qing got up and stretched his hands with a satisfied smile on his face. He felt completely refreshed and renewed like he had the most comfortable and peaceful sleep ever.

"I can see why cultivators the more powerful they become choose to replace sleep with meditation.." muttered Yang Qing as he felt how relaxed his whole body felt.

"Though it still falls short of sleeping in the nest.." muttered Yang Qing with a sigh of defeat when the image of the fluffy ostentatiously colored foul-mouthed celestial nesting weaver appeared in his mind.

Clearing his thoughts of the ulcer-inducing bird, he gingerly made his way to the kitchen. However, his trip was cut short when he saw the grim looks of Su Jinjing and Mo Guang.

"What happened?"softly asked Yang Qing, though deep down he had a feeling he knew the answer to that question.
