Chapter 119 Magnetic Thunder Collar, Divine Soul Thundercloud (7K Long Chapter, Bonus Chapter)
Previously, Qi Wuba had negotiated terms with the Jade Dragon Sect, promising them exclusive royal resources in exchange for the Magnetic Thunder Pearl.
If the Jade Dragon Sect hadn't acted first and taken Xu Jiu under their wing, making him a nominal disciple, the royal family would have tried to bypass the Jade Dragon Sect and contact Xu Jiu independently.
Lake and Sea Immortal City is located on the territory of the Jade Dragon Sect. Although the royal family and the Jade Dragon Sect sometimes cooperate, they also secretly compete with each other.
Since no disciple of the Jade Dragon Sect can enter the second level, taking out the Magnetic Thunder Pearl and trading it with Qi Wuba is a result that can be accepted by both parties.
Qi Wuba carried the newly acquired Magnetic Thunder Bead.
His body, which had just been tempered by the Thunder Spirit Body Tempering Method and still retained traces of lightning, was striding confidently toward the central area of the Thunder Field.
Suddenly, a burst of silver light appeared around Qin Chengcheng's neck—the lightning-resistant halo emanating from the black iron collar was several times stronger than the magnetic lightning bead, and it cleaved a path through the thunderstorm.
Qin Chengcheng gracefully passed by Qi Wuba and walked straight towards the stone tablet engraved with ancient seal script.
She stood before the monument for twenty breaths, her eyes reflecting the flowing thunder patterns of the inscription.
When he turned around again, there seemed to be electric arcs dancing in his eyes, clearly indicating that he had gained extraordinary insight.
At this moment, Qi Wuba gritted his teeth and endured the pain, attempting to move towards the third-tier high-grade lightning field area.
Qin Chengcheng, however, once again surpassed him and became the first to enter the third-tier high-grade lightning field.
To Qi Wuba's surprise, Qin Chengcheng's body refinement cultivation was only at the initial stage of the Copper Bone realm, and she was simply unable to withstand a third-tier high-grade lightning field for even a few breaths like he could.
However, her collar was far superior, directly entering a high-grade third-tier lightning field, and forcefully repelled the lightning field for Qin Chengcheng for ten breaths.
She was able to briefly touch the first lightning shield in the core lightning field.
The inscriptions inside the light shield seemed to move like living things. Qin Chengcheng held her breath and concentrated, letting the lightning imprint profound runes on her pupils.
Only when the incantation in her sea of consciousness was fully formed was she forced back by the surging thunder waves.
After retreating to the outer perimeter, he immediately sat cross-legged, with lightning flashing around his body.
When she opened her eyes again, her consciousness stirred.
A powerful ripple of divine thought swept forward, and the lightning spirits in front of them parted to the sides as if by command, revealing a deep passage.
"Controlling the Thunder Spirit with Divine Sense!"
Qin Chengcheng's eyes lit up with surprise.
Everyone stared intently at the silver necklace around Qin Chengcheng's neck, their Adam's apples bobbing involuntarily.
The stone tablet in the center of the minefield, engraved with ancient seal script, was still surrounded by lightning. Qin Chengcheng's leisurely stroll earlier was in stark contrast to the current disheveled state of everyone carrying lightning.
"Fairy Qin, where did this bracelet come from?"
After being shaken out by the third-tier high-grade lightning field, Qi Wuba wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth caused by the lightning spirit and asked in a hoarse voice.
His body, which had been perfected by the Golden Bone Technique and tempered by the Thunder Spirit, was still trembling slightly. He had just forcibly withstood a third-order lightning field, which was clearly beyond the limits of his body and the Magnetic Lightning Bead.
It's important to know that each stone tablet here is unique, and the inheritance received by each person after entering is different.
Moreover, the inheritance will not disappear after it is passed on; if one person goes first, others who enter later can still receive the inheritance.
Qin Chengcheng, lacking both a lightning spiritual root and advanced body refinement cultivation, was able to enter a high-grade third-tier lightning field and obtain a technique inheritance, enough to make everyone envious.
Clearly, she was able to get in entirely thanks to the collar around her neck.
Seeing everyone's attention,
Qin Chengcheng smiled and replied:
"This bracelet was made by Xu Jiu and is available for sale. The price is one Azure Dragon Jade, but priority will be given to the Jade Dragon Sect."
Upon hearing Qin Chengcheng's words, the surrounding prodigies couldn't help but gasp.
"Why don't you just rob it!"
Feng Qingjun exploded.
Azure Dragon Jade, a specialty of the Jade Dragon Sect, has almost never been sold to outsiders.
Even if someone could make the exchange, it would require spending rare resources equivalent to 30,000 spirit stones, as well as using personal connections, or being particularly familiar with the higher-ups of the Jade Dragon Sect, to have any connections.
This kind of resource can no longer be bought with spirit stones.
However, judging from its material, this ring is only made of second-grade high-quality magnetite and other related materials, which clearly does not reach the level of a quasi-magic weapon.
Normally, magical artifacts and formations of this level would be worth at most a few thousand spirit stones, with a maximum of ten thousand spirit stones.
Even entry-level quasi-magic weapons only cost ten or twenty thousand spirit stones each.
As a result, Qin Chengcheng immediately asked for one Azure Dragon Jade.
"Fairy Qin, the talents of Zhongzhou are eyeing us covetously. You and I are both talents of Qi. Shouldn't we unite against a common enemy at this time? It's inappropriate to raise prices now, isn't it?"
Leng Jianfei asked, revealing his true nature even when faced with real interests, despite his desire to pursue Qin Chengcheng.
He couldn't possibly get his hands on Azure Dragon Jade.
"I'm sorry, I'm just relaying Xu Jiu's message. This bracelet was made by Xu Jiu."
Moreover, Xu Jiu stated that high-grade magnetite, thunder ore, and other related materials near the Immortal City have been sealed off by forces such as the Jade Dragon Sect.
He doesn't have many materials on hand right now, so the number of these magnetic lightning array rings he can make is limited.
First come, first served. Don't blame him if you miss out later.
Qin Chengcheng answered calmly.
Upon hearing this, the others had no choice but to give up, each of them secretly gritting their teeth in frustration.
Xu Jiu's body cultivation is so powerful, yet he didn't come here to seek ancient inheritances. Instead, he sat there refining weapons and making a fortune in the secret realm.
Hmph, let him gain some advantages for now, but you must know that while the resources are good, they are not unique, and the opportunity in this secret realm is rare. If he misses this chance, he will inevitably fall behind these geniuses when he reaches the Core Formation stage.
When the time comes, having lost his cultivation as the foundation, no matter how much he earns by demanding exorbitant sums now, he will have to give it all back in the future.
Suddenly someone spoke up:
"I'll take care of it! I'll get the Azure Dragon Jade from the Jade Dragon Sect. Miss Qin, please put me first in your list."
To everyone's surprise, it was Qi Yunxi who spoke.
I don't know how this woman was so confident in obtaining the Azure Dragon Jade from the Jade Dragon Sect, and even managed to get the Jade Dragon Sect to agree to give her this array.
Apart from Qi Wuba and his sister, there's no certainty about the others for the time being.
They had no choice but to temporarily leave the secret realm and report to their own forces to see if they could negotiate with the Jade Dragon Sect for some Azure Dragon Jade.
Three days later
Inside the cave, Chen Yi sat cross-legged in the center of the spirit-gathering array. The Azure Dragon Jade floating in his palm had become dull and lifeless, and its once lustrous surface was now covered with fine cracks.
Just as the last bit of chalcedony was about to be drained, the stone gate's restriction suddenly rippled.
Chen Yi opened the restriction.
Qin Chengcheng stepped into the room under the light, his dark outfit still bearing the lingering, scorching aura of the minefield.
With a cold expression, she opened her palm, revealing two jade dragons with flowing dragon patterns, their surfaces gleaming with a bluish light in her pale hand:
"Here you go, two Azure Dragon Jade pieces. You owe me two necklaces, give them to me as soon as possible."
Qin Chengcheng stretched out her pale white hands, looking at Chen Yi with displeasure.
She realized that those few prodigies were fighting tooth and nail ahead, desperately charging into the minefield to vie for the inheritance.
As a result, this bastard made a fortune from the war and took a lot of good stuff!
Even Azure Dragon Jade, a resource that is usually extremely precious, Chen Yi has actually obtained three pieces in a short period of time.
These three alone are worth nearly 100,000 spirit stones.
However, this shameless woman actually sent her to the Jade Dragon Sect to negotiate for more top-tier second-order Five Elements materials.
They even suggested she try to ask if there was any way to obtain the White Dragon Jade.
He even coveted the White Dragon Jade, a treasure specifically designed to work on the soul. How dare this kid even think about it?
"Thank you, fairy."
When Chen Yi received the jade, his fingertips touched the dragon energy that had not yet dissipated deep within the chalcedony.
These two pieces of Azure Dragon Jade are of even higher quality than the previous one. Liquid dragon marrow can be faintly seen flowing in the jade core, clearly indicating that they are top-grade jade pieces that have just been taken from the Jade Dragon Sect's secret vault.
"You've worked hard, fairy! Hehe!"
"Hmph, I'm out there fighting for my life, and you're the one who gets all the benefits. Hurry up and make the collar for me, but the new collar's grade and strength can't exceed mine."
Qin Chengcheng said with an unhappy expression.
"Don't worry, fairy, this is just a test piece. We'll give it to the Jade Dragon Sect later, and I'll make you an even better one."
"Hmph, that's more like it~"
Qin Chengcheng raised her snow-white neck and left with a satisfied expression.
Chen Yi looked at the two new Azure Dragon Jade pieces in his hand.
I'm in a great mood.
This is a valuable item; it's essential for him to fuse the Five Elements Golden Radiance and the Three-Colored Golden Crystal.
He has tried his best to minimize the use of Azure Dragon Jade Marrow when fusing these two high-level body-refining energies.
However, it has not yet been able to completely get rid of the Azure Dragon Jade Marrow and fuse these two energies on its own.
In the past few days of cultivation, Chen Yi repeatedly compared the differences in the effects of the Five Elements Golden Radiance and the Three-Colored Golden Crystal on body refinement.
After numerous attempts and verifications, he finally made a decision:
In the first level of the Refining Realm—the stage of laying the foundation and strengthening the internal organs—the Five Elements Golden Radiance is indeed more effective.
This energy, which contains the power of the five elements, can form a continuous circulation of qi and blood when it nourishes the internal organs.
In particular, when strengthening the heart meridian, the wood and fire elements contained in the golden light can protect the heart orifice, while the earth element energy can stabilize the foundation of the spleen.
The tricolor gold crystal, on the other hand, exhibits completely different characteristics.
Its energy is more domineering and fierce, and its efficiency in refining jade bones is significantly higher than that of the Five Elements Golden Radiance.
To Chen Yi's even greater surprise, the jade bones refined with three-colored gold crystals were even more lustrous and translucent, subtly radiating energy fluctuations beyond those of someone just entering the third tier.
This already surpasses the quality of the jade bone that Chen Yi initially used when he tempered it with the Four Elements Golden Radiance.
After all, the Jade Bone is already a skeletal form that has reached the threshold of the third tier. Using real third-tier energy to temper it will naturally result in a purer body-refining effect.
Therefore, Chen Yi used them alternately.
Furthermore, the jade bones and the first layer of the filth were tempered simultaneously.
This arrangement not only maximizes cultivation efficiency but also keeps the physical body in a delicate balance.
As his cultivation progressed, he gradually discovered the additional benefits of this alternating cultivation method.
—After the initial tempering of the internal organs is completed, the functions of the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys are significantly improved.
The effect of this improvement is that the internal organ load caused by the sudden increase in the strength of the skin, flesh and bones is now significantly reduced.
Especially those hands that had undergone jade bone tempering, which, due to the immense energy they contained, often put tremendous pressure on the meridians throughout the body.
But after I started purging, this pressure was visibly subsiding.
With each breath, he could feel a more harmonious resonance forming between his internal organs and his bones and muscles.
Chen Yi's strength has improved significantly.
Now is the period when his strength is rapidly improving.
Normally, Chen Yi wished he could spend all twelve hours of the day cultivating.
When Chen Yi meditated and cultivated early in the morning, he could clearly feel the warm and smooth sensation of the Yi Wood spiritual energy flowing through his meridians.
These vibrant green energies are slowly circulating along a specific circulatory route, condensing into a purer liquid spiritual energy in the dantian with each cycle.
This Wood-based spiritual energy, originating from a high-level inheritance, was like a life-giving rain for a cultivator like him who also cultivated his body.
—Those minor, hidden injuries caused by frequent energy tempering are healing at a visible speed under the nourishment of the Wood elemental power.
Especially since he was close to the Foundation Establishment stage of the Heavenly Dao, even with only the initial Foundation Establishment stage of magical power, the healing effect of his magical power could reach the second-tier superior level.
However, Chen Yi knew in his heart that as his Golden Bone Jade Marrow Body Refinement Realm gradually entered the third stage, his second-grade low-level Yi Wood Spiritual Power would eventually become insufficient.
When I attempted to fuse the five elements of metal the day before yesterday, I left some scorch marks in the bone cavity of his right arm that had not yet completely faded.
Although the spiritual power of Yi Wood is slowly being restored, its efficiency is much lower than before.
For this reason, he diligently practiced the Taiyi Longevity True Scroll every day without fail.
To avoid an irreparable gap between physical physical cultivation and magical power, this imbalance may not show significant drawbacks in the short term.
However, serious problems arise after reaching the Nascent Soul stage or the fourth stage of Body Refinement, which is the root cause of the ultimate demise of countless Body Cultivators.
For the other half of the time, Chen Yi persevered in drawing upon the power of the Thunder Spirit to forge his soul.
Now, the black crystals remaining from the ancient demonic thoughts that had invaded his consciousness have finally been completely refined.
The number of third-order divine thoughts within his body had reached as many as five hundred, which was about half of his total divine consciousness.
Don't underestimate this half-formed third-order divine sense; it has already been able to coalesce and unleash a portion of the power of a third-order divine consciousness.
Moreover, he still possesses the Lesser Five Elements Divine Sense.
In terms of cultivating spiritual consciousness, progress is actually only slightly slower than that of physical cultivation.
Currently,
Each time Chen Yi activated the lightning power within the Golden Bone Lightning Pattern, it consumed a significant amount of energy.
From initially only being able to summon lightning bolts as thin as a hair, to later being able to control an arc of electricity formed by five strands combined, and now being able to mobilize the spiritual power stored in the entire lightning pattern at will,
This spiritual energy spell has already reached the initial peak power of a first-tier lightning spirit spell.
But when it was injected into his soul in small amounts and multiple times,
However, it could only paralyze Chen Yi's soul for about a hundred breaths.
This was mainly due to the constantly surging thundercloud in his soul sea—although its size was only one percent of the size when Qin Chengcheng underwent the third-order divine soul tribulation, it was superior in that it was ever-renewing and eternally existent.
Upon internal observation, one could see the bluish-purple thundercloud slowly rotating above the sea of consciousness, occasionally unleashing streaks of lightning.
These lightning bolts, imbued with special soul power, are forging Chen Yi's soul essence in the most primitive and brutal way.
Even more surprisingly, with daily cultivation, although the size of the thundercloud grew slowly, the quality of the thunder it contained continued to improve.
Among those newly generated sparks of electricity, sparse Dao patterns could be faintly seen flashing, each flash leaving a faint lightning mark in the soul sea.
However, Chen Yi also discovered that relying solely on the thunder spirit power generated by the Golden Bone Thunder Pattern to stimulate the soul was gradually losing its effectiveness.
Just as taking the same kind of medicine for many years can lead to drug resistance, his soul became increasingly resistant to lightning.
Sensing this situation, Chen Yi thoughtfully looked out the window—in the direction of the Medicine Valley Secret Realm.
"Looks like I'll have to go out again!"
Currently, besides the second-tier high-grade magnetic lightning array ring he gave to Qin Chengcheng, Chen Yi has two more.
Of the 2 spirit stones worth of second-grade high-quality magnetite and other materials retrieved from the Jade Dragon Sect, only a small portion has been used up.
"Well, before the Nascent Soul cultivators and sect geniuses from Central Continent arrive, let's go to the secret realm first."
"I'll use this magnetic lightning collar to draw some lightning energy from the lightning pool to serve as the energy source for my lightning spirit cultivation during this period."
Among them was a collar that Chen Yi kept for his own use, in which he added the original version of the Magnetic Thunder Bead's function of absorbing and storing thunder spiritual power.
Chen Yi did not hand over the two collars to Qin Chengcheng for the time being, so the other geniuses were resting outside and had not yet entered.
Chen Yi changed his identity to the bald Xu Jiu, paid the entrance fee of one thousand spirit stones, and entered the secret realm discreetly.
Of course, the pseudo-core cultivator guarding the secret realm in the center of the immortal city knew that Xu Jiu had gone in.
Upon entering, Chen Yi specifically transmitted his voice to the fake Core Formation cultivator, informing him:
"I am a disciple of the sect in name only. I am here to carry out a secret mission. My whereabouts will be kept secret for the next three days. Please keep this a secret for me for three days, Master Liu."
The man surnamed Liu, who was selling fake pills, smiled and said, "I understand."
Master Liu's status within the Jade Dragon Sect was not as high as Xu Tianyue's. The Xu family was a large clan within the Jade Dragon Sect, while Master Liu was merely a rogue cultivator and retainer.
He only knew the general outline of Xu Jiu's situation, and given Xu Jiu's strength, which was on par with the nine great prodigies, his future cultivation level would definitely surpass his.
So he was still willing to give Xu Jiu face.
As Chen Yi entered the secret realm, he was also pondering...
It seems I need to develop a new identity.
In the world of cultivation, ordinary rogue cultivators can still live in seclusion, and no one cares about their origins.
However, when it comes to the competition and distribution of core rare and precious materials, cultivators must possess a complete identity background and cultivation experience that can withstand scrutiny from all parties.
Otherwise, at best, they will be thoroughly investigated by the major sects, and at worst, they will be attacked as spies of the demonic sect.
The teleportation array flashed, and Chen Yi felt the space around him distort. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a vast grassland.
The tall, wild grass swayed like waves in the wind, and a faint rustling sound could be heard from among the blades, indicating that countless low-level demonic insects were lurking there.
He immediately made a hand seal and used the Wind Control Technique to hover in mid-air. When his divine sense swept across the grass below, he keenly detected several hostile demonic auras.
Then he patted the pet pouch.
With a whoosh, a fiery red light shot out.
As soon as it appeared in the air, the fiery red light on its wings faded, and it gradually transformed into an ordinary eagle.
Chen Yi applied a lightness talisman to himself, then landed on the Crimson Flame Sparrow.
Let it carry you to the Valley of Medicine.
Even at the late stage of the second tier, the Crimson Flame Sparrow is only the size of an ink disc. With its wings spread, it can barely carry Chen Yi.
For short trips, Chen Yi needs to apply a lightness charm, but for long trips, it can't handle it.
"Cultivate diligently, and I'll get you a demon core later to help you advance to the False Core stage."
Chen Yi patted it.
A fake core, a near-third-tier demon beast? The Crimson Flame Sparrow's eyes lit up with joy.
"Thank you, Master!"
It conveyed its gratitude to Chen Yi with its divine sense, and immediately flapped its wings even more vigorously.
Sitting atop the Crimson Flame Sparrow, a hundred miles can be covered in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
With a strong wind blowing in his face, Chen Yi squinted and looked into the distance. The outline of the Medicine Valley had already appeared on the horizon, and the thunderclouds that never dissipated all year round had mostly dispersed.
Only at the core of the icy pool, powerful thunderclouds still gather and linger.
Chen Yi entered the Medicine Valley and arrived at the location of the Thunder Pool from before.
He released the Crimson Flame Sparrow to roam freely in the secret realm, seeking its own opportunities.
He then affixed a talisman for burrowing underground and went straight underground.
Now, with his current strength, he's not as afraid of that long-legged witch in the black dress as before.
He has now begun the initial stage of the first level of purification, and although he has only completed about three percent, his overall strength is already incomparable to his previous Golden Bone form.
Previously, he only had two fingers with jade bones, and he was worried that his body couldn't withstand the burst of power from the jade bones and would be overtaxed. Therefore, he didn't display the power of the jade bones that day.
But today is different. Both of his fists are now made of jade bones, and within his bone apertures resides a five-element golden radiance and a three-colored golden crystal.
These are all powers that can reach the third tier with a single unit of energy.
If he encounters that witch again, he's confident he can make her cry with two punches.
The spiritual light of the Earth Escape Talisman cut through the soil like flowing water. As Chen Yi moved through the rock strata, he could clearly sense the residual lightning-attribute spiritual power in the surrounding soil.
These free energies acted as guiding lights, leading him to descend deeper and deeper into the danger zone.
When he suddenly felt a lightness above his head, he had broken through the last layer of rock and landed steadily in the familiar cave.
Lightning still flickered inside the cave, but an unusual atmosphere permeated the air.
Chen Yi's pupils contracted slightly, and his third-level divine sense spread out like a tide, instantly sweeping over every corner—the newly added burn marks on the stone wall and the lingering cold aura at the edge of the Thunder Pool all indicated that the black-dressed witch had recently been active here.
"As long as no one bothers me, I'm too lazy to go looking for trouble..."
Chen Yi didn't care about others.
He just wanted to cultivate in peace and quiet.
He walked slowly forward, stopping just a foot away from the forbidden zone.
After a brief assessment, he was confident, but he did not act rashly.
He decided to first test the strength of this lightning pool.
A wisp of azure magic power condensed at his fingertips, gently stirring the surging thunderous liquid on the surface of the pool.
"laugh--"
A purple-blue arc of lightning leaped up, striking Chen Yi's right hand like a venomous snake spitting its tongue.
His expression remained unchanged, and his jade-bone index finger flicked lightly in response to the lightning.
The destructive aura unique to the third-tier special lightning erupted the moment of contact, a power strong enough to injure a pseudo-core cultivator's body, yet it only left a faint black mark on the fair, jade-like finger bones.
Even more remarkably, the Thunder Spirit's intent, which followed the backlash of divine consciousness, was intercepted by the autonomously surging thunderclouds before it could even touch the soul sea.
Within his soul, a thin but pure bolt of lightning struck down from the bluish-purple thunderclouds. The two bolts of lightning collided in mid-air, exploding into tiny sparks.
Chen Yi's heart stirred slightly.
This time, there was no need to even deploy the divine sense shield, nor to activate the system. The electric arcs from the Thunder Pool had already neutralized the attack on the soul.
Thus, Chen Yi appeared relaxed.
The lightning bolts that bounced out were at most like raindrops hitting the body, and could no longer cause much damage.
After confirming this, Chen Yi's hand bones glowed slightly.
He took a deep breath and suddenly plunged half of his right palm into the Thunder Pool!
In an instant, the calm surface of the pool turned into a ferocious beast, with hundreds of arcs of lightning weaving into a dense net that wrapped around his arm.
These lightning bolts, each reaching the mid-grade quality of the third rank, contained a violent energy capable of tearing through metal.
"Crack!"
Amidst the blinding flash of lightning, Chen Yi's entire right arm went numb instantly.
The power of thunder spirit, which had seeped into his very bones, raged wildly, attempting to blast this audacious scoundrel into dust.
However, the faint light flowing across the surface of the jade bone flickered on and off, like a bottomless pit that swallowed up all the destructive energy that came at them.
Only those thunder spirit thoughts specifically targeting the soul quietly bypassed the body's defenses, following Chen Yi's divine consciousness, and rushed straight into his sea of consciousness from an unknown dimension.
This lightning-inspired spiritual attack cannot be blocked by the physical body.
"Well done!"
Chen Yi's mind raced, and his consciousness was instantly filled with turbulent thoughts.
The three-colored divine sense shield formed an impenetrable wall around the soul sea, while the thunderclouds inside churned like boiling water, and five hundred strands of third-order divine sense simultaneously triggered the golden bone thunder patterns.
Just as Lei Ling's consciousness broke through the divine sense shield, dozens of thumb-thick purple lightning bolts suddenly struck down from the sky above his soul sea!
Boom boom—
As the two streams of divine soul energy clashed, a system notification sounded in Chen Yi's mind.
[Third-tier, mid-grade lightning spiritual energy detected. Currently being absorbed.]
[Detection indicates that mid-grade Tier 3 Thunder Spirit Power is being absorbed.]
The divine sense shield blocked half of the lightning spirit's mental attack, while the purple lightning erupting from the thunderclouds within the divine soul blocked the other half of the mental attack.
The system then exerted its power and quickly devoured the remaining elements.
His soul felt as if it were being pierced by thousands of silver needles, leaving him in a state of brief paralysis.
Fortunately, his consciousness had been shocked so many times that it was almost numb.
In his current state, he remains somewhat lucid.
And in this brief period of time
He could clearly feel the system devouring the Thunder Spirit power that had invaded his sea of consciousness.
The purple-blue lightning bolts, imbued with an aura of destruction, are being refined by the system's power into the purest form of lightning spirituality.
of course,
This was only for half a breath's time after Chen Yi's palm touched the Thunder Pool.
If this goes on for a long time,
Even with his current spiritual defenses, he still couldn't withstand it.
However, it was only such a short contact.
The amount of lightning spiritual energy and lightning spiritual power absorbed by Chen Yi's system was quite considerable.
While the paralysis was still in effect, Chen Yi endured the tremors in his sea of consciousness and guided the system to divide the refined energy into two streams:
The pure spiritual essence of lightning was sprinkled like spring rain onto the thunderclouds above the sea of souls, while the remaining power of lightning spirit transformed into sweet rain that nourished the soul.
After more than a hundred breaths, the numbness in Chen Yi's soul receded like a receding tide.
Upon further examining his own sea of consciousness, he couldn't help but gasp in shock.
The thundercloud energy, which originally only reached 1% of Qin Chengcheng's third-tier soul thunder tribulation cloud, has now doubled, instantly increasing to 3%!
Chen Yi was overjoyed.
He tried to draw upon a wisp of thundercloud energy.
Suddenly, a bolt of purple lightning, about a foot long, struck down from the sky above the Soul Sea. Its power was already close to that of a second-tier lightning spell.
When this soul thunder, entirely condensed from divine consciousness, exploded in the sea of consciousness, it instantly vaporized several wisps of wandering demonic thoughts nearby.
"As expected, the transformation can only be achieved by 'bathing' in the forbidden zone."
Chen Yi was amazed.
Then, he quickly thought that this might be a very rare opportunity to improve his strength.
We need to find a safe and reliable way to make the most of it.
