The ground and his body were covered in dust. When Mi Xiaojing stood up, the dust fluttered up, covering the stone platform in a layer of gray. He waved his hand, and a gust of wind swept up the dust. He couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "This... this is strange, why is there so much dust..."

Then he realized, "How long have I been sitting here?"

Wang Weijun replied weakly, "Not long, just half a year."

Mi Xiaojing was almost scared to death, "Don't talk nonsense, I feel like it's only been a few hours..."

"You fool, that's true meditation. If a person has a high cultivation level, they can meditate for several years or even more than a decade. This state is something others can't even beg for."

"I'm done for, I haven't been home for half a year, what about my family?"

Wang Weijun said, "You should first consolidate your cultivation level. Kid, you've gained a lot from this half-year of seclusion."

Mi Xiaojing checked as instructed, and he was also amazed, "Ah? Late Foundation Establishment stage? I've advanced!"

"If your seclusion had lasted a bit longer, reaching the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment wouldn't be surprising. It's a pity, if it weren't for other reasons, your cultivation level would definitely not stop here."

The so-called other reason was actually very simple. The Mantra Banner had absorbed his Starry Sky power. If it weren't for the Mantra Banner absorbing a large amount of Mi Xiaojing's Starry Sky power, advancing to the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment would have been effortless.

Even though he was anxious, Mi Xiaojing tried to calm down. After all, consolidating his current realm wouldn't take much time.

It only took half an hour for Mi Xiaojing to consolidate his late Foundation Establishment stage. He found that he was just a little bit away from advancing to the Great Perfection stage.

Mi Xiaojing secretly regretted it. He clearly knew that once he reached Foundation Establishment, his Starry Sky power would transform into true Starry Sky power, and its power would increase exponentially.

Finally, Mi Xiaojing sank his Divine Sense into his Dan Tian. He was still thinking about the text of the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture, wondering what it looked like now.

When his Divine Sense sank into his Dan Tian, Mi Xiaojing was also shocked.

To read the uncut version, go to pawread dot com.

Because he saw a new Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture appear. The seven Pill Scriptures were almost identical to the ones Yu Hong had brought out. Of course, upon closer inspection, there were still some differences from the real Pill Scriptures.

The seven Pill Scriptures were not like what he had seen before. The seven Pill Scriptures he had seen before were like screens, foldable. But now, the seven Pill Scriptures were scattered.

The seven Pill Scriptures were dazzling, revolving around the substitute puppet. Mi Xiaojing watched in surprise, not understanding how the Pill Scriptures had been duplicated.

Wang Weijun also emerged from the Heart Tower. His body was extremely small, but every detail was exquisitely detailed. With the green robe and white beard, the substitute puppet next to him looked like a giant statue. He looked up at the floating and rotating Pill Scriptures, equally shocked.

With Wang Weijun's years of cultivation, he had never known that Evolutionary Immortality and Cultivation could appear in such a combination.

The Heart Tower was already quite complex. He didn't know if the substitute puppet formed by the Mantra could really substitute for death. It sat on the Heart Tower, with the seven Pill Scriptures floating and rotating around it. Above it hung the Magical Sword, standing straight with the tip pointing at the top of the substitute puppet's head, also rotating around the tip of the sword.

Next to the substitute puppet stood a very small and exquisite old man. This scene also made Mi Xiaojing feel intoxicated. Apart from the Magical Sword, everything else was not his own creation. Fortunately, the Dan Tian seemed very large, like a world, with no visible boundaries, because it was surrounded by darkness.

As his Divine Sense approached one of the Pill Scriptures, Mi Xiaojing found that the closer he got, the larger the ancient characters became, and the greater the shock they gave him.

The ancient characters were actually derived from the ancient immortal characters, which inherently carried a certain immortal intent and could form a certain will and power. When his Divine Sense was near, it would be affected in some way.

Mi Xiaojing strangely found that his Divine Sense seemed to be growing stronger. Although it was only a slight growth, he still keenly noticed it.

Divine Sense was almost impossible to cultivate. The growth of Divine Sense depended on advancement. Each time he advanced, his Divine Sense would grow a bit. Mi Xiaojing had never expected that observing the Pill Scriptures with his Divine Sense would have this benefit.

Understanding the words in a text was far from enough, one also needed to understand the content. Mi Xiaojing hadn't expected that he wouldn't understand the content, but could benefit from the text, which could nurture and strengthen his Divine Sense. This surprise made him very happy, at least he had gained something.

Wang Weijun was almost lying on the Heart Tower, because he couldn't leave the Heart Tower, and even his Divine Sense couldn't leave. He could only move on the Heart Tower. If he dared to leave the Heart Tower, the Mantra Banner would immediately show him its power. He had already understood this after many experiments.

Lying on his back, Wang Weijun could see the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture. Because the Pill Scripture was revolving around the substitute puppet, he could only see the content of one Pill Scripture at a time, and the viewing time did not exceed a few seconds. This made it very difficult for him to read, unlike Mi Xiaojing who could use his Divine Sense to inspect it, which was not so strenuous.

Even for a rare treasure like the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture, Wang Weijun also had a devout heart.

Any knowledge passed down from ancient times was a treasure in the Cultivation World. Every cultivator would study and understand it with a devout and respectful heart.

Both the righteous and the evil were the same in this respect.Wang Weijun stared intently, his heart even more shocked. The ability to duplicate classics was astounding. Although the duplicated Pill Scripture had a significant gap compared to the real Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture, there was one terrifying aspect: this Pill Scripture perfectly reproduced the content of the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture.

Even if he could never see the real Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture again, possessing this current Pill Scripture gave Wang Weijun great confidence in fully comprehending its content.

It should be known that even Wang Weijun found the Pill Scripture baffling at first, struggling to understand its meaning. However, after the translation of the true words, he could easily decipher it. Once any ancient text was partially deciphered, fully understanding the entire content was just a matter of time.

Mi Xiaojing only glanced at the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture for a moment before his Divine Sense left his Dan Tian. He couldn't afford to delay any longer. He had been away from home for more than half a year, and he was very anxious.

Mi Xiaojing was eager to leave this place. At the very least, he needed to know if his family was in danger.

Mi Xiaojing stood up and stepped onto the small teleportation array. With a wave of a Magical Technique, he returned to the loft where he had entered. He immediately saw a person sitting cross-legged not far away.

Upon seeing Mi Xiaojing appear, a smile appeared on Yong Ji's face. He was ordered to stay here, specifically to wait for Mi Xiaojing's appearance.

"Have you finished your retreat?"

Mi Xiaojing said, "Thank you, Elder Yong, for your protection." This was something he had to express his gratitude for. (To be continued.)
