164 Soaring In Strength
“The first purification of spiritual energy, begin!” Zhou Yun chanted in his heart.
At the same time, many methods of purifying spiritual energy flashed through Zhou Yun’s mind under the Enlightenment State!
In the end, Zhou Yun classified them into two categories.
The first was to solve the problem. Improving the cultivation technique, directly filtering out the spiritual energy when absorbing the pure spiritual energy, thus achieving the state of spiritual energy purification.
Many cultivators absorbed the mottled spiritual energy, but they didn’t have a way to purify it, so it was mottled spiritual energy from the absorption to the use. As time passed, it would even cause one’s aptitude to decline.
This was also one of the reasons why the five great sects’ strength had been weakening ever since the spiritual energy had started to run low a thousand years ago. The decrease in spiritual energy and resources was one of the reasons. However, the biggest reason was that there was less spiritual energy. Many cultivators absorbed mottled spiritual energy when they cultivated, which resulted in lower quality and limited cultivation.
Even when Ling Qingyun was cultivating, she had to enter the sect leader’s hall to prevent herself from being invaded by the mottled spiritual energy.
Therefore, if one were to absorb pure spiritual energy from the start, not only would the quality of one’s own spiritual energy improve, but it would also replace one’s aptitude over time!
The second was to filter out the impurities of the spiritual energy in the body after absorbing it.
Zhou Yun furrowed his brows. He cultivated the Saint Fire Mantra, which was an extremely powerful cultivation technique. It would yield twice the result with half the effort, and it would also allow him to continue to benefit.
“I want both! Not only must I filter the spiritual energy when I absorb it, but I must also compress the spiritual energy in my body to increase its quality!” Zhou Yun’s own spiritual energy was much more than an ordinary person’s. Just one type of spiritual energy was naturally not enough to satisfy him!
“The Saint Fire Mantra is a cultivation technique created by a nascent soul grand cultivator. Perhaps my current cultivation level is not enough, so I can’t comprehend a more powerful cultivation technique. However, if I add some functions to make it better, it’s still possible!” Zhou Yun was extremely confident. This was the case with the Enlightenment State!
“For the absorption of spiritual energy, ordinary cultivators would have to circulate their Qi and absorb the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth into their dantian. However, I have the Saint Fire Body, so my entire body is a container of spiritual energy. I only need to absorb spiritual energy into my body.
“That’s why I have to do it via the skin and let the spiritual energy pass through my skin before I can absorb it. ” Zhou Yun said.
“But the skin itself doesn’t have that many functions. How can I make the skin have a filtering function?” Zhou Yun thought hard. Suddenly, the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array flashed across his mind!
“Perhaps I can form a special array on my skin to achieve the effect of filtering the spiritual energy!” Zhou Yun said in surprise. The Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array was a special formation. Not only did they have different array centers, but they could also distinguish the target of the attack!
He didn’t need to fully comprehend the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array. He only needed to comprehend the outer array and set the target of attack as spiritual energy. Then, he would change the setting of attack to absorption. He would be able to absorb spiritual energy without any impurities!
Zhou Yun was shocked by the sudden thought. But he soon came back to his senses. Zhou Yun knew that if he did not possess such a wondrous array like the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array, he would not have been able to think of such a method even if he was in the Enlightenment State!
“The Divine Gate is truly a powerful place! I can benefit a lot from each of the cultivation techniques here!” Zhou Yun thanked the Divine Gate that he had never met before.
“Then, the next step is to improve the array!” Zhou Yun had already obtained all the arrays of the celestial Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array from Ling Qingyun. Therefore, he began to modify them without any hesitation.
At the same time, Zhou Yun also learned how to compress spiritual energy in his body. He had set up several small formations in the main meridians of his body and set all the spiritual energy that passed through them as compression.
This caused the extremely pure spiritual energy to be compressed once again!
If he succeeded, the spiritual energy in Zhou Yun’s body would be extremely pure, even close to a liquid state!
“The second one is about the strengthening of the body. Using the strange fire in my body to continuously forge my body, perhaps I can make my body even stronger!” Zhou Yun had learned his lesson and naturally set his sights on the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array!
He had created a small technique that allowed the phoenix fire to continuously attack his entire body while circulating around him!
Of course, the power of the attack was extremely weak, and it was in a state that his body could withstand!
According to the phoenix fire’s vitality, Zhou Yun did not even need to deliberately heal his injuries. His body was constantly being refined by the phoenix fire to discharge impurities while also being repaired! He had perfectly achieved the effect of strengthening his physique at all times!
The third comprehensive intent was completely linked with the great momentum of heaven and earth, causing the comprehensive intent to contain the great momentum of heaven and earth. This was the most difficult one!
This was because the great momentum of heaven and earth was an exclusive ability that could only be used by those in the nascent soul stage. According to Xin Yu, not many geniuses had used it, even when they were at the peak of the late-stage golden core.
Therefore, Zhou Yun’s ability to use the great momentum of heaven and earth was already considered extremely monstrous, and it was not an exaggeration to say that no one had ever done it before!
Now, Zhou Yun was still not satisfied with this. He wanted to integrate the great momentum of heaven and earth into his secret technique. Naturally, he had to put in more effort than ordinary people!
Su Lingyun’s figure suddenly flashed through Zhou Yun’s mind. He shook his head and chose to continue to grit his teeth and persevere.
This world could be destroyed at any moment. He could be killed at any moment. If he didn’t grit his teeth and persevere to the best of his ability, he might as well stretch out his neck and be killed from the start! This was much easier!
Zhou Yun gritted his teeth and continued to persevere. He was looking for a way to completely merge the great momentum of heaven and earth into his body’s comprehensive intent, allowing his strength to increase in a short period of time greatly!
“Is Brother Zhou Yun alright?” Outside Zhou Yun’s cave abode, Qiao’er was looking at it with worry.
It had been a month since Zhou Yun entered seclusion!
During this time, Qiao’er had absorbed the phoenix blood and possessed the phoenix fire. She had obtained a physique that was comparable to Zhou Yun’s and had already broken through to the golden core stage.
But Qiao’er did not expect that Zhou Yun had only broken through to the late-stage foundation establishment, and he was taking even longer than her to break through to the golden core stage. Qiao’er could not help but worry.
On the side, Ling Qingyun was closing her eyes and taking a deep breath. She was also waiting for Zhou Yun to come out of seclusion.
During this period of time, Ling Qingyun had already led all the elites of the five sects to set up the true Nine Heavens Array of the Divine Gate!
This time, Ling Qingyun had already cut off all means of retreat. She would recruit all the disciples of the five sects and even all the cultivators in the world who could be of use to set up the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array!
The five sects had already exhausted all their resources and abilities just to kill Xin Yu!
