When one’s cultivation reached the late Eternal stage, no matter who one was, the increase in strength would become incomparably slow. And the Xuanhuang Imperishable Technique coupled with the First Spring in the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring allowed Ning Cheng’s cultivation level to continue to soar wildly.
In Ning Cheng’s third year of entering the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring, his strength had already come to Eternal Perfection. Three years had passed and several people had already walked out of the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring, among them was Ji Pingzhong.
Once Ji Pingzhong went out, all the people outside knew how fierce JI He was. Not only had JI He hijacked the first spring in the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring, he had also killed Guo Hao Ge of the He Luo Sacred Sect.
Although it was normal for disciples to fall in the battle for the stone gate of the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring. But a casual cultivator dared to kill the Holy Son of the River Luo Holy Sect, which made the River Luo Holy Sect furious. Not only that, but even the rest of the sects that had disciples entering the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring were also very upset.
Everyone knew that the location of the highest quality transformed divine essence from the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring was the First Spring. Now that the First Spring had been spoiled by a casual cultivator, no one would feel comfortable in their hearts.
Although no clan had explicitly come forward to say anything, all of them knew that these clans had sent strong people to stand guard at the transmission array outside the divine spring. As soon as that JI He came out, I was afraid that he would somehow disappear.
In contrast, the one who was most worried about JI He was instead the Dragon Emperor of the Barbarian Dragon Clan, Barbarian Huishan. It was no secret that Savage Huishan wanted to take away JI He a few years ago. The reason was also very simple: JI He was most likely the murderer of his son, Barbarian Jiu Ren.
If this incident had happened three years ago, I am afraid that Man Huishan would not have cared. At most, he would have discussed with the other clans that he would take JI He away, or he would have killed JI He in front of him.
After he investigated that Ning Cheng had once also killed Jing Wu Ya of the Heaven’s Beyond Dao and had formed a grudge with the Heaven’s Beyond Dao, Savage Huishan captured Feier of the Heaven’s Beyond Dao and at the same time got the battle crystal ball that Ning Cheng had used to finish off Jing Wu Ya.
It was the same lance magic treasure. The same lance pattern and familiar fighting style made him think of the fake JI He from the Great Tai Su Competition at first.
This fake JI He was also a cultivator who had somehow come out of nowhere. A long spear magic weapon with a spear pattern to overcome the enemy. After that, he caught the Lifeless Poison Hand. After knowing that Ning Cheng had not fallen, but had escaped. Even if he was an idiot, he, Savage Huishan, knew that the fellow impersonating JI He was related to Ning Cheng, and it was likely that he was Ning Cheng.
If JI He was Ning Cheng’s impersonation, then everything became clear. Ning Cheng had an enemy with his son, Barbarian Jiu Ren, and it was normal for him to dare to kill Barbarian Jiu Ren in the Tai Su Secret Realm. What made Ning Cheng, a tiny Eternal Cultivator, capable of killing two half-step Dao-shaping? He was aware that his son had a half-step Shaping Dao under him when he entered the secret realm.
The only explanation was this. Ning Cheng really possessed the Five-coloured Star Splitting Arrow. The reason why his son, Barbarian Jiu Ren, had hidden from him and brought people to the secret realm was most likely because of Ning Cheng’s Five-coloured Star Splitting Arrow. As a result, not only did this useless family and not finish off Ning Cheng, but he was killed by Ning Cheng instead. Barbarian Huishan even suspected that Qi XIII Xing was also an accomplice, but Qi XIII Xing was too big and he did not want to go to the Xuan Yue Divine Sect until he had definite proof.
After knowing that JI He was likely to be Ning Cheng’s impostor and that Ning Cheng really possessed the Five-coloured Star Splitting Arrow, could Barbarian Huishan not be anxious? Once the news of the Five-coloured Star Splitting Arrow leaked out, it was feared that the storm clouds would change and all the powerful people would gather to grab it. When the time comes, all the powerful people will gather to grab it. He really did not have any advantage.
……
Ning Cheng, who was still in the First Spring, naturally did not know that there were more and more people outside who were not happy with him and were waiting for him. After he had advanced to Eternal Perfection. He then began to transform his divine essence.
It was very easy to convert divine essence here, and as a hint of astral essence transformed into divine essence, Ning Cheng’s feeling was nothing but powerful.
The flow of bubbling star yuan turned into rolling divine yuan churning, and the sea of consciousness was like a boundless starry sky, supporting the continuous transformation of star yuan into divine yuan.
The divine essence aura of the First Extra-dimensional Spring was like a river wave, being swept away frantically by Ning Cheng. And at the bottom of the divine Spring pool, new divine essence spirit aura was constantly churning out.
Ning Cheng was like a bottomless pit absorbing these churned out divine spring auras. And the divine Spring was also like an inexhaustible rice bin, constantly providing divine Yuan Spirit Qi to Ning Cheng.
Strength rose and rose again. As time passed, more and more star yuan was transformed. At this time. Ning Cheng actually felt that his cultivation level was decreasing. He thought it was an illusion, and after carefully feeling the flow of divine energy in his meridians and purple mansion, Ning Cheng was certain that his cultivation level was indeed decreasing with the transformation of divine energy.
While his cultivation level was dropping, his strength was rising exponentially.
Ning Cheng had never thought about this situation before, as his cultivation level was naturally decreasing in strength. Instead, his cultivation level dropped and his strength rose with the transformation of his divine essence.
Ning Cheng subconsciously slowed down his transformation of divine essence, and the Xuanhuang Invincible Operation was equally careful. Soon Ning Cheng knew what the cause was, his divine essence was compressing.
That is to say, as his astral elements were transformed into divine elements, these divine elemental powers were being compressed. It was as if what was originally a bucket had been compressed into a large half bucket by him. If one wanted to fill this bucket to the brim, one had to continue putting in new stuff.
So powerful, Ning Cheng sucked in a breath of cold air, and then became excited. This was definitely the inverse of Xuanhuang Wufang, the Starry Sky Yuan Qi or Eternal Pill that he had absorbed from his previous cultivation was not the purest. Once he met the even purer divine Spring Yuan Qi, his power began to de-buckle. This happened as the cultivation level dropped and the strength rose.
After understanding this point, Ning Cheng began to consciously compress his divine essence.
This was where the advantages and disadvantages of not having a master and not having a clan lay. If one was in a sect and had a master to teach them, I was afraid that no one would be so crazy to do so. Compressing the divine essence, is that even doable? One instability would cause the physical body to collapse and the sea of consciousness to explode on itself.
But for Ning Cheng there was no such effect at all, the Xuanhuang WuXiang Technique was originally invisible and formless, and the powerful divine essence cultivation was not just stored in the meridians and dantian. It also followed the practitioner’s dao rhythm and was contained between heaven and earth, forming a resonance with the power between heaven and earth. A cultivator who practiced Xuanhuang Wufang could not only mobilise his own power, but could even mobilise the power in heaven and earth at any time. As for exploding his own sea of consciousness, it was even more of a worry for Ning Cheng.
His Sea of Consciousness was the Starry Sky Sea of Consciousness, which was like the starry sky before it was increased by the Empyrean Consciousness Transmutation Pill. And at this moment, with the help of the Empty City Sense Transmutation Pill, his Starry Sky Sea of Consciousness was even more vast and infinite.
……
The many strong people who were waiting at the location of the extra-territorial divine spring transmission array were a little impatient. This was already the fifth year since the opening of this Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring. All the disciples who had entered the Extra-dimensional Divine Spring had come out, except for that JI He and the killed Guo Kaige.
According to the characteristics of the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring. No one could stay inside for five years. This was because it did not take anyone five years to transform their divine essence in the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring. In the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring. Once the Star Essence had been completely transformed into Divine Essence, or once the stone gate within which it was located, the Divine Spring was depleted, it would be directly transported out.
JI He, on the other hand, was clearly over five years old, yet there was not a single sign of being teleported out.
……
“Click, click” the lotus-shaped stone platform under Ning Cheng actually let out a slight cracking sound, Ning Cheng’s heart was shocked, he opened his eyes. He found that the divine Spring Yuan Qi around him had disappeared without a trace.
The spring pool beneath him had also become a dried up stone pool, with not a single trace of divine Spring Yuan Qi overflowing anymore.
Ning Cheng stood up in amazement, he had actually collapsed the first spring of the Extra-dimensional Divine Spring. Not only was there no longer a trace of Divine Spring Yuan Spirit Qi coming out, even the lotus stone platform where he had cultivated had cracks.
After feeling his cultivation level, Ning Cheng was quite satisfied. His cultivation level had decreased during the process of transforming his divine essence, and as he continued to compress his divine essence, together with the endless divine Spring Yuan Spirit Qi here, it allowed him to cultivate to Eternal Perfection once again and transform all of his cultivation into divine essence.
This majestic and powerful feeling made Ning Cheng really want to find someone to do it with immediately.
Not true. He had been here for six years, and according to the Extraterrestrial Divine Spring, he couldn’t even stay for five years at most, what was wrong with him?
Ning Cheng had just thought of this. A powerful force wrapped around him.
Not good, he was going to be transported out. Ning Cheng barely even thought about it, and with a furious surge of divine energy, he broke free of this power wrapped around him in an instant, and then directly entered the Xuanhuang Pearl.
The rules of the Extraterrestrial Divine Spring were extremely high, even if he had entered the True Spirit World, he would not be able to escape this kind of end of being teleported away.
The Xuanhuang Pearl was obviously not suppressed by the rules of the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring, and as soon as Ning Cheng entered the Xuanhuang Pearl, the teleportation suppression he was subjected to disappeared without a trace.
In the Xuanhuang Pearl. Ning Cheng breathed a slight sigh of relief. Luckily, he had seen the opportunity quickly, otherwise he would have been teleported out. I was afraid that there would not even be any crumbs left.
He didn’t think that the Barbarian Society Mountain would forget about him, even if it was the River Luo Sacred Sect. All of them might have been secretly scheming against him.
Back when he had finished off Guo Haoge, Ning Cheng had planned to definitely not go out through the original exit.
He believed in a rumour from Earth that all roads led to Rome. No matter where the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring was located and how it came to be, there was definitely another place to enter and another place to exit.
Entering the Xuanhuang Pearl, Ning Cheng’s divine sense swept out.
To Ning Cheng’s amazement, the dried up divine Spring pool outside also began to crack, and the lotus stone platform he had been sitting on for six years to cultivate on completely shattered apart. The Xuanhuang Pearl fell to the bottom of the cracked divine Spring Pond along with the broken stones.
The bottom of the divine Spring Pond cracked again, and a vast and boundless aura of emptiness came from it, so Ning Cheng immediately knew that he was in the middle of emptiness at this moment.
A rumbling sound surrounded Ning Cheng’s divine sense, and Ning Cheng settled down instead.
He vaguely guessed what was going on, the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring had been refined by him. I was afraid that his six years of cultivation at the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring was more terrifying than anyone else’s six thousand years of cultivation.
Ning Cheng had guessed correctly, the Extra-territorial Divine Spring was indeed cultivated across by him. The Extra-territorial Divine Spring was originally something that survived in heaven and earth, and was later rearranged by a great power. Every time a certain amount of divine Spring Qi was absorbed away from the Extra-territorial Divine Spring, after another three thousand years, the Extra-territorial Divine Spring would once again roll in new divine Spring Qi from the vast emptiness.
In fact, the nine springs behind the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring were all dependent on the first spring for their survival, and when the first spring disappeared, the nine springs behind it would disappear at the same time. Ning Cheng had even absorbed all the Yuan Qi supporting the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring, this was tantamount to drying up the water and fishing, it would be strange if the Extra-terrestrial Divine Spring did not span.
It could be said that Ning Cheng had done something that the entire Tai Su Domain abhorred.
