Chapter 485: A Pleasant Breakthrough

"This is not good."

Ye Tian Yun gritted his teeth and tried his best to suppress the pressure building up in his dantian.

However, it was not easy, and with every passing moment, Ye Tian Yun felt like he would explode in the next instant.

His heartbeat rate kept on increasing exponentially.

Suddenly he just felt like there was no coming back; everything vanished.

"Haa…. haa…. Haaa…"

Ye Tian YUn tried to stabilize his body as his chest jumped up and down.

Bum! Bum! Bum! 

He could hear the heartbeat loud and clear.

Cold sweat dripped from his back as he tried to calm himself down.

After a few minutes, Ye Tian Yun's body finally calmed down as he laid on the white surface.

'I expected this, but it was still too fierce.'

He closed his eyes and focused on digesting the pill while still lying straight on the ground.

'It will take me a few hours.'

It was already evening outside, and Ye Tian Yun had about sixteen hours before he needed to go out.

'Sixteen hours… That means I have two days to cultivate in the cultivation space.'

Ye Tian Yun nodded to himself and started to cultivate.

To digest a cultivation pill, it is not necessary to sit in a cross-legged lotus position.

Rather, it is more important to have a calm and focused mind.

Ye Tian Yun cultivated the pill with his eyes closed and started to digest its benefits.

The Core in his dantian has shrunk to normal size. However, one thing that was interesting to note was that now there was a mist around the core.

A violet-black aura-like mist covered the whole Core.

'Nice.'

Ye Tian Yun smiled as he sensed the mist.

'This is the spirituality of the Core.'

The formation of the mist signified the beginning of the journey in creating a Nascent Soul.

It took about seven hours for Ye Tian Yun to digest the pill fully.

'If I had the system, this would have taken only an instant.'

Now the System is gone.

Ye Tian Yun couldn't eat the pills indiscriminately without the fear of exploding.

Once he fully digested the pill, Ye Tian Yun popped another pill in his mouth.

The intense pain once again began to spread throughout Ye Tian Yun's body as his Core started to expand.

However, things turned normal after some time, and Ye Tian Yun started to digest the pill.

He repeated this process again and again for about forty-eight hours.

"Finally done."

Ye Tian Yun opened his eyes.

He had long changed his position to sitting because it felt more comfortable.

He then took a deep breath and came out of the cultivation space.

The room was quite dark because Ye Tian Yun had locked the windows and the door so no one else disturbs him.

'It feels great to know that I can get three times the cultivation time than everyone else.'

Lost in thoughts, he opened the window to bathe in the sunlight.

Trrr' Trrr'

Trrr' Trrr'

"Uh… what happened to the sun?"

Ye Tian Yun frowned, and then he suddenly noticed that it was still night.

"What?"

He frowned and looked at the clear night sky.

"It will take one more hr to sunrise…."

'That means I still have four hours before I meet my father….'

'Did I miscalculate?'

'I am pretty sure I spent two days inside the Cultivation Space.'

'Last time I checked, I got three times the actual duration of time. According to that, sixteen hours should have passed outside while I cultivated for forty-eight hours.'

'But only twelve hours have passed.'

'That means I got four times the total time passed outside! I got four hours instead of just three for every hour that passed in the real world!'

'Did the Emblem Of Time's ability increase!?'

It was a pleasant surprise for him.

'Is it because my cultivation increased?'

This was good news.

'I need to get back to the Cultivation Space.'

Ye Tian Yun immediately closed the window again and sat cross-legged on the bed in a lotus position.

Every second passed outside meant he lost four seconds.

Now he still had four hours in his hand; in other words, he had a total of sixteen hours of cultivation in the Cultivation Space!

'This is really great.'

Ye Tian Yun popped another Spiritual Qi pill as soon as he appeared in the space and began to cultivate.

The pain still remained; however, its intensity had decreased to quite a few notches.

As he continued to cultivate, time slowly passed, and soon even these sixteen hours came to an end.

Ye Tian Yun opened his eyes and found himself back in his room.

'The quality of these pills is pretty high. It won't be long before I reach the second level of Core Formation Realm.'

Because of the exponential increase in cultivation potential with his early breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Realm, Ye Tian Yun's cultivation speed was bound to increase at a fast rate.

And with the very high-quality pills that Butler Liu brought to him, Ye Tian Yun got another boost.

'Where did he get these pills from?'

Ye Tian Yun couldn't help but ponder.

Even in his previous life, Butler Liu had brought these pills, but Ye Tian Yun never bothered to ask the source, mainly because he thought these pills were from the Supreme Alchemy Hall.

'But after Butler Liu's death, I never found out how to get such high-quality pills.'

Ye Tian Yun frowned, 'I should ask him about the source of these pills. Just in case.'

Soon he had opened his eyes and was once again back in his room.

Without hesitation, he opened the window, and sure enough, the bright sunlight covered his face and lit up the whole room behind him.

Ye Tian Yun smiled.

'My guess was right.'

Nodding his head, he walked out of his room and headed for the Emperor's Courtyard.

'I wonder if Father has found any alternatives to the engagement? If he says no, I will at least try to pry out some information regarding the reason behind the engagement.'
