Ning An's face was a little pale, which drew the attention of both Ning Mama and Wen Zhi Qiao.
“It's nothing, just a minor issue.”
“I pushed myself a bit too hard during the breakthrough.”
Ning An spoke up, after all, what warrior doesn't get injured?
Back in the days of the Wanzu battlefield.
He had suffered injuries countless times.
He simply did what needed to be done, without any unnecessary fuss.
This was also the reason for Ning An's decisiveness.
He had once experienced the pain of his cultivation being stalled.
Hearing Ning An's words, neither Ning Mama nor Wen Zhi Qiao said anything further.
But the worry in their eyes was obvious.
“Zhi Qiao, how was your harvest this time?!”
Ning An, remembering Wen Zhi Qiao's own progress, asked.
“My cultivation has reached the peak of the First Rank.”
“I'll try to break through to the Second Rank this year.”
“I didn't expect the effect of the Martial Dao Resonance to be so good.”
“I had only heard rumors about it before.”
.
Wen Zhi Qiao's face lit up with excitement as she spoke.
Clearly, she was very satisfied with the results of this Martial Dao Resonance.
And it was normal!
For Ning An, a breakthrough to a major realm might be the only thing that would cause such excitement.
But for Wen Zhi Qiao, even a minor realm breakthrough was enough to make her happy.
Furthermore, if she were to reach the Second Rank.
Then Wen Zhi Qiao would definitely be among the top echelon in Qing Shan Base.
However, after this, there should be a few more Second Rankers in Qing Shan Base.
Qing Shan Base already had a good number of First Rank warriors.
As for whether anyone would reach the Third Rank.
Ning An thought it was unlikely!
Qing Shan Base already had several Second Rankers, and they wouldn't be able to reach the Third Rank in a short time.
The Martial Dao Resonance wasn't a magic pill that could make Qing Shan Base instantly stronger.
It primarily played a role in icing the cake.
It could help those warriors close to breaking through to advance faster.
But to expect leaps and bounds in cultivation just from the Martial Dao Resonance would be impossible.
For example, in Ning An's case, the Martial Dao Resonance would at most help him reach the peak of the Fourth Rank.
The key to his breakthrough to the Fifth Rank was the enlightenment he had gained during this period.
Ning An couldn't help but think of his brothers-in-law.
After all, it seemed they were both close to becoming warriors.
He casually mentioned it to his wife and asked about them.
“I hope they can break through!”
Wen Zhi Qiao said through gritted teeth.
There was a hint of exasperation in her tone.
A flicker of understanding crossed Ning An's eyes.
Clearly, as a daughter, she still cared about her father.
His eldest brother-in-law was already forty years old.
He hadn't become a warrior yet, and the burden of the family still largely rested on his father-in-law's shoulders.
It wasn't about food or clothing, but rather a matter of cultivation resources.
In the High Martial Era, the Divine Xia Federation didn't restrict childbirth; they even encouraged people to have more children.
After all, the Divine Xia Federation was in dire need of warriors, especially talented ones.
He knew this from the discussion about resource allocation he had heard from the dean.
The Divine Xia Federation was facing its own pressures!
Currently, all the burdens on the Wen family's brothers-in-law rested on the shoulders of their father.
If any of them were to become warriors, it would lighten the load.
After finishing their reunion dinner, Ning An's family watched the New Year's Eve gala.
Although it was a High Martial world, most people were still ordinary citizens.
Including the Divine Xia Federation, they had a policy of "loose inside, tight outside."
There wasn't too much pressure placed on ordinary citizens!
Taking advantage of this time, Ning An prepared to draw a new talent for the month.
However, due to his injuries.
He wasn't too concerned about the ability he would get this month.
He didn't plan to invest more spiritual stones, two hundred thousand spiritual stones would be enough.
Once he reached the Fifth Rank, Ning An would only need to go to the Wanzu battlefield.
His ability to earn spiritual stones would undoubtedly increase again.
He wouldn't have to be as careful as he was half a year ago, when he had to worry about every ten thousand spiritual stones.
The Ability Wheel spun continuously.
Finally, a platinum light emerged.
Even Ning An didn't expect this surprise from the ability wheel.
He had basically given up on this month.
【Spiritual Cultivation (Talent): Grants a bonus during spiritual cultivation, Duration: One Month!】
This time, the bonus was related to the spirit!
After his spiritual energy had materialized, he could do some training.
At the Fourth Rank, his spiritual energy was mostly used in conjunction with martial arts to create a deterrent effect.
It mainly put pressure on his opponent's spirit.
He could only affect the opponent's state!
But now that it was materialized, it was different. For example, Ning An could use his spiritual energy to control hidden weapons.
Furthermore, he could inflict damage with his spiritual energy alone.
At least for now, against First and Second Rank warriors.
His spiritual energy could inflict significant damage!
Against Third Rankers, it would still be somewhat ineffective.
But in battle, even a slight interference with one's spiritual energy.
Could have a huge impact on the outcome.
His spiritual energy needed to be trained.
Because Ning An knew that the Sixth Rank required spiritual energy to trigger the fusion of Qi and Blood.
If before the Sixth Rank, Qi and Blood were stronger than spiritual energy.
Then at the Sixth Rank, spiritual energy would be stronger than Qi and Blood.
This was the final step before reaching the higher ranks!
However, spiritual energy was also very mysterious. Many people, even those who had reached the Fourth Rank, were still confused about how to increase their spiritual energy.
The Divine Xia Federation currently had a training method for spiritual energy.
But there was no specific cultivation method.
For Ning An, the Spiritual Cultivation ability was crucial.
Moreover, his injuries were mostly internal, unrelated to his spiritual energy.
He could still train his spiritual energy during this time.
Naturally, Ning An wouldn't miss this opportunity.
Although due to the combined effect of his two lives, his spiritual energy was more substantial than he imagined.
His breakthrough to the Fifth Rank was also related to this.
But there were limits to how powerful it could be!
It still needed more training. At least Ning An had already felt the limits of his spiritual energy after it materialized.
