After a day of recuperation, Lu Ye felt the exhaustion from consecutive days of cultivation sweep away—it was time to advance towards Spirit Stream Level 3!
He didn't rush to consume an elixir pill but first stimulated his spirit force to pinpoint the location of the 19th orifice.
Now at Spirit Stream Level 2, his spirit force was much more robust and plentiful than it had been two months earlier, making the task of locating the spiritual orifices all the more effortless.
Within the time it took for one incense stick to burn down, he found the location of the 19th orifice.
Only then did he take out a Spirit-Nurturing Pill and consume it, refining the pill energy and directing his spirit force to assault the spiritual orifice barrier of the 19th orifice.
Three days later, having used nearly eleven Spirit-Nurturing Pills, the 19th orifice was filled.
This result was expected.
