The martial arts heavenly sound lasted for half an hour.
Before it ended, Ning An's figure directly left.
Although it was a bit disrespectful, he couldn't care less for the sake of breaking through.
Moreover, he wouldn't have much interaction with Gu Nian Xia afterward.
Under such circumstances, Ning An naturally wouldn't choose to be polite.
In fact, there were quite a few people who ran away as soon as it ended.
Because the enlightenment only lasted for half an hour.
The key was to transform this enlightenment into strength.
In the face of strength, many people wouldn't care about this martial arts star, Gu Nian Xia.
Fortunately, Gu Nian Xia was already used to this scene.
In the past, there were people who did the same.
A moment of enlightenment was still very rare.
It was just that this lord of Qing Shan was a bit unexpected.
Logically speaking, her martial arts heavenly sound shouldn't have helped him so much.
“Maybe it's just the right time to reach a breakthrough,”
Gu Nian Xia could only think this way in the end.
After finishing the performance at Qing Shan Base, she was relieved!
All her trips in the Southwest region had ended.
She could then use the resources she obtained from this trip to the Southwest to improve her cultivation.
Although being able to play the martial arts heavenly sound truly gave her a great position in the Divine Xia Federation, Gu Nian Xia still valued her own strength more.
On the other side, Ning An returned to the City Lord's Mansion as soon as possible.
Because there was the most suitable environment for closed-door cultivation, and he also brought out many spirit stones.
“Enlightenment!”
Ning An immediately activated the special ability he had drawn before.
Soon, he fell into a special state.
It was as if he had become one with this world.
The surrounding spiritual energy continuously poured into Ning An's body.
Fortunately, Ning An had already been prepared for this.
To break through from fourth-rank to fifth-rank, besides cultivation, spiritual power also needed to be materialized.
And the blood, bones, and other aspects had to undergo further transformation.
Currently, Ning An didn't have any bottlenecks in terms of spiritual power.
Coupled with the enlightenment, his spiritual power constantly changed.
Ning An's cultivation immediately reached the peak of fourth-rank!
He was even continuously breaking through towards fifth-rank.
After half an hour, the absorbed spiritual energy and spiritual power finally completed their materialization.
“Boom!”
A stronger aura surged out from Ning An's body.
He had finally stepped into the fifth-rank realm of martial arts!
This kind of realm, even in the entire Southwest region, wouldn't be unknown.
Any base would treat him with respect.
However, the City Lord's Mansion of Qing Shan Base had many special formations.
They blocked the aura that Ning An emitted after breaking through.
After breaking through, Ning An didn't end his cultivation immediately.
Instead, he took advantage of this great opportunity!
He continued to break through to a higher cultivation level.
Perhaps there would be some instability after a sudden increase in cultivation.
But as long as he could break through, he could just spend more time stabilizing his cultivation.
Ning An's desire for cultivation was extraordinary.
He wouldn't miss any opportunity to improve himself.
As time passed, his cultivation climbed to the peak of early fifth-rank and then it was difficult to progress.
This was basically the limit for his cultivation this time.
But Ning An's eyes flickered. He didn't want to be satisfied with this.
He circulated his blood throughout his body and wanted to forcibly break through this small realm.
For Ning An, breaking through to mid-fifth-rank with the help of this opportunity could save him a lot of effort.
You know, many fifth-rank martial artists might need years to break through a small realm.
Although Ning An had a cheat, he wouldn't be so slow.
But if he was unlucky, it wouldn't be easy to break through.
So Ning An naturally chose to gamble!
Taking advantage of his current state and enlightenment, he would make a final push to break through.
Even if his cultivation wasn't stable, there was no other way.
Ning An's continuous blood and spiritual power constantly impacted the mid-fifth-rank realm.
After a short while, a ferocious look appeared on Ning An's face.
The aura around him also became unstable.
But the brightness in his eyes was even stronger.
“This is it!”
“Break!”
The blood in Ning An's body surged like a continuous river.
He broke through the barrier to mid-fifth-rank in one breath.
But Ning An still couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
This breakthrough was undoubtedly a bit forced.
But the result was good. Ning An had directly stepped from late fourth-rank to mid-fifth-rank in one breath.
Such a huge leap in breakthrough was unimaginable for many martial artists.
Ordinary people would find it difficult to even break through a small realm.
Even the geniuses wouldn't dare to do so!
Only Ning An, relying on his feelings, broke through to mid-fifth-rank in one go.
“My realm has broken through, but I've also suffered a lot of injuries.”
“It will take at least a month just to recover from my injuries.”
“But it's all worth it!”
Ning An frowned slightly at first, then relaxed and murmured.
It had been half a month since Gu Nian Xia played the martial arts heavenly sound.
It was even time for the New Year!
The New Year in this world was not much different from his previous life.
It was a relatively important festival for the Divine Xia Federation.
Of course, because many martial artists were stationed at the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield, many families were not as lively as they imagined.
At least in Ning An's memory, even when he was a child, the New Year was very quiet.
It was only after he married Wen Zhi Qiao that his home became livelier.
This year, the Ning family was considered to be a lively year.
Because Ning An could accompany them for the New Year.
But because of his closed-door cultivation, Wen Zhi Qiao and the others didn't dare to disturb him.
Fortunately, after checking the time, Ning An didn't miss it.
There were still two days until the New Year. If he closed up again, he would miss it!
Although he still had some injuries to treat, it was fine to eat a meal with his family.
In fact, Ning An felt quite guilty deep down.
After he came out of closed-door cultivation, the Ning family was indeed very surprised.
This New Year's dinner was truly a reunion dinner!
