After Ye Qiu and the two won finished dinner and took a bath, they returned to their room to continue cultivating.
The Eastern Castle was silent, except for the cries of red-eyed, white-furred bats outside, which were the only sounds.
The continuous stream of Moonlight Essence absorbed by Ye Qiu flowed through his body’s ridians, transford into Spiritual Energy, and ultimately converged in his Dantian as True Qi.
More and more Spiritual Energy was turning into True Qi, which was then stored in the Dantian.
The Dantian resembled a huge storage device, and each breakthrough in cultivation ant expanding this storage, enlarging the space inside to store more True Qi.
It was the sa now, as it functioned like an endless vortex, with various streams of True Qi continuously gathering in the Dantian.
When he finally stopped, Ye Qiu noticed the sunlight streaming in through the window was sowhat glaring.
It was already past eight in the morning, so he decided not to continue cultivating.
He knew he was just a bit away from breaking through to the early First Layer of the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
After getting up, stretching, washing up, and coming downstairs, he felt the weather was quite nice. Undoubtedly, this cultivation breakthrough could very likely happen tonight.
While walking outside the vineyard, Ye Qiu learned that both dostically and internationally, including in Huaxia, the auction for that oil painting had caused considerable shock.
In fact, many wealthy individuals from Huaxia were already flying over to Paris.
Christie’s was taking advantage of the publicity these days, also ensuring the wealthy attending the auction had enough ti.
After all, it takes over ten hours to travel from Huaxia alone, and flying from places in Europe and Arica would also require considerable ti.
Unaware of these developnts, Ye Qiu returned to the dining area to find Louise and Liu Lingxiu already awake. Liu Lingxiu had not experienced any nightmares and seed quite refreshed after her sleep.
Of course, if Louise hadn’t been keeping her company, she would certainly have gone to find Ye Qiu.
"Young Master Ye, right now, it’s all about that oil painting and the Viscount Red Wine," Housekeeper Eugene remarked.
Undoubtedly, this ti the Viscount Red Wine would beco even more renowned.
Because of this painting, it had solidified its position in the wine world; neither the painting nor the Viscount Red Wine was sothing the ordinary person could afford to enjoy.
After breakfast, Ye Qiu spent the morning and afternoon taking Louise and Liu Lingxiu on a walk around the vicinity, and while the two won rested in their room, Ye Qiu also returned to his room to read.
Around eight in the evening, after dining and taking an evening stroll,
Ye Qiu went back upstairs, took a bath, and returned to his room, beginning his cultivation facing the window where the moonlight with a reddish hue perated.
As he closed his eyes, the constant Moonlight Essence shone over Ye Qiu’s entire body, transforming into a stream of Spiritual Energy that was absorbed, circulating through his body’s ridians.
After circulating the Small Circulation, it entered his Dantian and finally turned into True Qi stored within the Dantian.
It could be said that if soone saw Ye Qiu at this mont, he would appear sacred, shrouded in white aura, as the endless Moonlight Essence was absorbed into his Dantian.
It could be said that during the Qi Refinent Realm, Ye Qiu was still just an ordinary person, albeit one much stronger than a regular person.
However, stepping into the Foundation Establishnt Stage was a whole different story.
Many cultivators spent their whole lives unable to cross from the Qi Refinent Realm to the Foundation Establishnt Stage, leaving this world with regrets.
So now, going from the Tenth Layer Peak of Qi Refinent, at its Great Perfection stage, to the early First Layer of Foundation Establishnt was akin to crossing a wide chasm.
Now, Spiritual Energy turned into True Qi, which filled this chasm. Otherwise, without filling it, crossing from Qi Refinent to Foundation Establishnt wasn’t possible.
Ye Qiu’s cultivation was at its most intense, even beyond his own control at tis.
Who knows how long had passed when the blood-red moonlight outside shone directly upon Ye Qiu’s body. He felt a piercing pain in his eyes, and when he opened them, a heart-wrenching pain struck his Dantian.
This was because the storage of True Qi in the Dantian was too much, nearly to the point of overflow.
And at this very mont, the developnts from quantity to qualitative change took place; it was a painful process which Ye Qiu had never felt before.
Now he felt it in earnest, and after what felt like forever, a nuclear-like explosion sounded, and Ye Qiu realized he had finally broken through in cultivation.
He advanced from the Tenth Layer Peak of Qi Refinent to the early First Layer of Foundation Establishnt in one go.
Moreover, in the Dantian, Ye Qiu noticed the indistinct lotus-shaped object beca more prominent, as if the lotus was budding slightly.
Ye Qiu didn’t know what this was, but he knew it had a significant connection to his cultivation breakthrough, as he could sense it with every breakthrough.
In regular cultivation, he could never feel its presence at all.
When Ye Qiu opened his eyes and looked outside, he knew he had finally achieved a breakthrough.
Finally, he transford from ordinary flesh to a true cultivator, realizing he had taken another crucial step toward ascension to the Heavenly Court Imperial dical Bureau.
Ye Qiu wasn’t sure if he could sense the Storage Ring.
However, since the Storage Ring was left in Jinling and not brought here, he’d have to return to Jinling to see if it could truly be sensed.
If he could sense it, Ye Qiu understood he’d surely prosper.
Inside were nurous Spiritual dicines, Immortal Elixirs, Immortal Pills, and Spirit Pills, which were priceless treasures in this world.
They could accelerate Ye Qiu’s cultivation, extend ordinary people’s lifespans, and allow them to cultivate as well.
Suddenly, Ye Qiu felt extrely uncomfortable all over, as greasy as if covered in mud from a filthy pond.
In haste, Ye Qiu rushed to the bathroom.
Entering the bathroom and subrging in the hot spring water, he was surprised to see the initially clear water quickly turn into black ink.
This was too black!
While draining the ink-black water, Ye Qiu began to wash his entire body.
Ye Qiu knew that the ordinary flesh and body, from consuming regular grains since childhood, along with inhaled air, accumulates inside, a portion expelled through typical ans like feces, urine, and sweat, while another part couldn’t be expelled and gradually accumulated throughout the body.
This accumulation couldn’t be washed away with a bath, as it only cleans the outer layer of gri, but the internal buildup remained uncleanable for ordinary people.
