As his cultivation improved, Zhang Ruochen needed more and more Xuanwu Sacred Blood to reach the next level.

Zhang Ruochen took half a year to refine three drops of Xuanwu Sacred Blood, during which time he had raised his cultivation from the Initial Stage to the Peak of the Fourth Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm.

At the Third Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm, Zhang Ruochen had only required one drop to reach the Peak.

All the Meridians in his body surged with violent Genuine Qi. Some of it exceeded what he could withstand, seeping out from his pores and floating in the air. A 10-meter Xuanwu illusory image now appeared.

Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation had improved rapidly after refining the Xuanwu Sacred Blood. He had now reached the Peak of the Fourth Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm. This growing power, however, had not integrated well with his internal strength.

The new Spiritual Blood and Genuine Qi carried an aura from the Cyan Fire Xuanwu. It was repelled by Zhang Ruochen’s own Genuine Qi and Spiritual Blood.

Zhang Ruochen did not continue to refine a fourth drop of Xuanwu Sacred Blood. He stretched out his hand and started mobilizing the Genuine Qi inside his body. He directed the powerful Genuine Qi through the Meridians on his arm and forced it out of his palm.

Zhang Ruochen felt a dull throbbing pain in the Meridians on his arm. Two streams of Genuine Qi, the old and the new, were clashing there.

Zhang Ruochen withdrew some Genuine Qi. He eased the rest of the Genuine Qi inside his body. Instantly, the throbbing pain in his arm ebbed.

“I’ve already reached the Peak of the Fourth Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm. More Xuanwu Sacred Blood won’t help me break into the Fifth Change.

“After this, I’ll have to fortify my cultivation for a while. I must refine the new Spiritual Blood and Genuine Qi more, integrating them into my own body and consolidating my power. Then, I can start cultivating my second Holy Meridian and break into the Fifth Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm.”

Zhang Ruochen had now reached the Peak of the Fourth Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm, and his cultivation improved drastically. However, he still could not utilize his Genuine Qi efficiently. He could only access 50-60% of its power.

In other words, he was not stable in the present realm. He could not perfectly execute its power. He still had much room for improvement at the Fourth Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm.

Of course, he had already dramatically improved his strength.

Zhang Ruochen withdrew the Genuine Qi and stopped practicing. He took out his Ancient Abyss Sword and practiced sword moves instead.

“SWOOSH!”

He brandished his sword
