Chapter 605 Deduction Completed
The water vortex was just a little bit away from accelerating to its maximum speed.
However, the spiritual energy of the third realm-breaking pill was exhausted, and the speed of the water vortex began to slow down due to the lack of energy.
What was even worse was that the remaining spiritual energy in Duan Qing's sea of qi basically filled the entire sea of qi.
Even if he took the fourth realm-breaking pill, he could not effectively accelerate the water vortex due to the obstruction of the remaining spiritual energy.
Duan Qing was very unwilling to feel this!
He was just a little bit away, but he did not break through.
How could Duan Qing be willing to give up all his previous efforts?
At this time, the situation when he broke through the late stage of the Transcendent Realm in Xiaonan Realm suddenly flashed through Duan Qing's mind.
He had an idea, and without saying a word, he immediately raised his hand and began to condense spiritual power.
In the blink of an eye, a fiery red Vermillion Bird Feather shot out from Duan Qing's hand and sank directly into the ground.
Although he acted in a hurry, this Vermillion Bird Feather contained 20% of Duan Qing's own spiritual power.
After consuming 20% of the spiritual power, the water vortex, which was originally in a saturated state, immediately began to absorb the remaining spiritual energy throughout the entire sea of qi.
Duan Qing's sudden action made Xue Wanyun stunned for a moment.
But then, she immediately reacted and realized what Duan Qing was doing.
Duan Qing wanted to consume some of his spiritual power and make a last-ditch effort.
Although doing so can reduce the remaining spiritual energy in the sea of qi, it cannot completely change the current situation. It is only a stopgap measure at most.
Because the water vortex will slow down while absorbing spiritual energy, and it will also be more difficult to accelerate.
Under Xue Wanyun's gaze, Duan Qing took the fourth realm-breaking pill without hesitation.
The water vortex, which had originally shown signs of slowing down, accelerated again under the impact of the spiritual energy transformed by the fourth realm-breaking pill.
However, due to the excessive amount of residual spiritual energy in the sea of qi, the effect of the spiritual energy transformed by the realm-breaking pill on the water vortex was greatly reduced compared to before.
In addition, the water vortex was in an unsaturated state, and part of the spiritual energy that impacted the water vortex would be directly absorbed by the water vortex, making the acceleration effect even more unsatisfactory.
Fortunately, the water vortex absorbed spiritual energy very quickly and soon entered the saturated state again, which restored some of the acceleration effect.
But what followed was that the accumulated spiritual energy in the sea of qi was once again close to saturation.
Seeing this, Duan Qing had to shoot a Vermillion Bird Feather again, consuming part of his own spiritual power so that the water vortex could continue to absorb spiritual energy and alleviate the continued accumulation of spiritual energy.
Of course, the consequence of doing so was that it made it even more difficult to accelerate the water vortex again, and even basically stagnated.
This was like a dead end.
If the spiritual power was not consumed, the water vortex was in a saturated state and could not absorb spiritual energy. The spiritual energy that entered the sea of qi to impact and accelerate the water vortex would accumulate and fill the entire sea of qi, preventing the spiritual energy from continuing to impact the water vortex, causing the breakthrough to fail.
If the spiritual power was consumed to allow the water vortex to absorb spiritual energy, it would certainly alleviate the problem of accumulated spiritual energy, but it would greatly reduce the acceleration effect, or even stagnate, and the ending would also be failure.
For a moment, Duan Qing couldn't help but feel helpless.
Duan Qing sighed secretly.
Oh, that's it!
Helplessly, Duan Qing stopped making fearless attempts and prepared to stop breaking through after the fourth realm-breaking pill's spiritual energy was consumed.
As soon as this idea came out, he immediately felt much more relaxed.
At this moment, the water vortex that was originally accelerating and stagnating suddenly increased its speed a little and accelerated to the extreme speed.
The water vortex that reached the extreme speed, the vortex force broke through the shackles, and immediately began to rapidly absorb the remaining spiritual energy in the sea of qi.
As the remaining spiritual energy in the sea of qi was quickly absorbed, the water vortex flashing with lightning slowly increased in size.
This sudden breakthrough made Duan Qing speechless!
Maybe this is what it means to plant flowers with intention but they don't bloom, but to plant willows without intention but they grow into shades!
He was too obsessed with the breakthrough before, so that his mentality was not calm. It was probably because of this that he missed by a hair's breadth.
And as he calmed down, the breakthrough that he thought was going to fail was a natural success!
After a while, Duan Qing opened his eyes, with a very strange look on his face.
"Success?" Xue Wanyun sensed that the spiritual power fluctuations on Duan Qing's body had obviously become stronger, and tried to ask.
"Lucky, lucky!" Duan Qing was quite emotional.
"Haha, it's successful, so what's the luck!" Xue Wanyun laughed and joked.
"Thank you, Senior Sister Xue, for the realm-breaking pill!"
"I have plenty of that stuff, why are you and I so polite!"
"Stupid fool!"
...
After the breakthrough, Duan Qing and Xue Wanyun met with others again.
Duan Qing's breakthrough did not attract the attention of others.
After three months of study, everyone has gained something in the formation.
Especially Xue Wanyun and Huang Shi, who have been able to arrange some simple formations, leaving others far behind.
Duan Qing estimated that at this rate, the two should be able to repair the teleportation array in a few months.
Compared with the two women, he also gained a little in deducing the structure of the teleportation array.
His research on the formation method was indeed of great help to his deduction of the structure of the teleportation array, which greatly increased his deduction speed.
However, even so, he estimated that it would still take at least more than half a year to complete the deduction.
There was no sun or moon in the underground, and the days passed one by one.
Soon another year passed.
During this year, everyone gathered every three days without fail to exchange their progress, and they got along well without any conflicts.
In the past year, Xue Wanyun and Huang Shi's research on arrays has long been able to meet the requirements for repairing the teleportation array.
All that remains is to wait for Duan Qing to complete the deduction of the teleportation array structure before they can start repairing it.
Now, Duan Qing is only one step away from completing the deduction.
But this last little bit took him three days.
More haste makes waste. After the breakthrough event a year ago, Duan Qing knew this very well.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry at all, but just continued the deduction calmly.
He had waited for more than a year, and he didn't mind waiting for another ten days or eight days.
Suddenly, Duan Qing, who had his eyes closed, opened his eyes leisurely and was overjoyed.
It's done!
Xue Wanyun, who was standing aside, noticed Duan Qing's expression and immediately guessed what had happened.
"Done?" Xue Wanyun said in surprise.
"It lived up to expectations!" Duan Qing nodded affirmatively.
After a year and three months, he finally completed the deduction of the teleportation array structure.
"Haha, you've got it, you idiot!" Xue Wanyun was overjoyed.
Surprised, she hugged Duan Qing and kissed him on the face like a dragonfly touching the water.
Xue Wanyun's kiss made Duan Qing feel like he was struck by lightning and he was stunned on the spot.
Except for the accident that happened in Qingfengjian last time, this was the first time he had such close contact with Xue Wanyun.
Xue Wanyun's face flushed and she let go of Duan Qing with a blushing face.
"I'll go call others!" Xue Wanyun ran away like a fugitive after saying this.
Duan Qing came back to his senses, stared at Xue Wanyun's back, smiled knowingly, and got up to follow.
