Not only was Li Yuan’s spiritual power continuously breaking through and transforming, but not far away, Liu Jing had also consumed a Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit.
The spiritual power of both was soaring.
… Li Yuan’s consciousness remained very clear as he felt the transformation of his spiritual power, and it took less than half an hour.
“[Your spiritual power has increased from level 28.9 to level 29.0]”
“[Your spiritual power has reached level 29, and the upper limit of your Spiritual Awakening Level has been raised to 35%]” Two consecutive prompts flashed by.
Li Yuan’s Divine Palace panel underwent corresponding changes.
“Hmm?”
“Just as I had guessed before, every time the shackles of the Divine Palace are broken, if one wishes to raise the upper limit of Spiritual Awakening, one must first increase their spiritual power,” Li Yuan murmured to himself.
He could understand this.
The Divine Palace panel originated from the Mind Spirit Divine Palace, which resided within the world of the mind.
So, the stronger the spiritual power and the more powerful the world of the mind, the more abilities of the Mind Spirit Divine Palace could be discovered—it was only natural.
“However.”
“I previously thought that spiritual power at level 26 would increase the upper limit of Spiritual Awakening,” Li Yuan sighed inwardly. “Unexpectedly, it took reaching level 29 to finally get the Spiritual Awakening Level up to 35%.”
“What a pity.”
“Once the upper limit of Spiritual Awakening is reached, killing members of the Alien Race no longer yields spiritual nutrients,” Li Yuan muttered to himself. “Quite a waste of spiritual nourishment.”
Otherwise, with just the numerous Flying Serpents that Li Yuan had killed in Flying Serpent Valley, he could have directly piled up his Spiritual Awakening Level to 35% by now.
But Li Yuan wasn’t in a hurry. Read exclusive chapters at m_v-l’-NovelFull.net
Even if he advanced to 35%, he temporarily wouldn’t be able to incorporate Origin Power into his body, and the second Spiritual Guidance was still far off.
“Spirit.”
“Heaven and Earth!”
“Indeed, the stronger the spiritual power, the clearer the perception of the mysteries of heaven and earth,” Li Yuan silently felt the many benefits and changes that came with his increased spiritual power.
His consciousness was very clear.
His thoughts moved faster.
Most crucially, he found it easier to sense the subtle aspects of his body and the clearer perception of the heaven and earth around him… Capturing the faintest fluctuations and mysteries of the heaven and earth had also become much easier than before.
“No wonder many Prime Warriors spend decades of hard work in their early training to barely master Fourth Level techniques,” countless thoughts emerged in Li Yuan’s mind. “Later, by chance, they encounter some spiritual treasures that transform their spiritual power, and they eventually become Top Grade Origin Martial Artists.”
The experiences of life are truly astonishing.
Comprehension is even more unfathomable.
And without a doubt, spiritual power is like an amplifier, multiplying a person’s comprehension and talents by several times.
Whirr~
The power converted from the Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit was still crazily transforming within Li Yuan’s body.
Continuously boosting Li Yuan’s spiritual power.
“[Your spiritual power has increased from level 29.0 to 29.1]” Another Divine Palace prompt flashed by.
…
Time passed, and nearly two hours had gone by in a blink.
“Spiritual power is at level 29.7 now,” Li Yuan glanced at the Divine Palace panel.
He was very close to the Second Order Limit.
“The strength of my spiritual power has increased tremendously since breaking through to level 29, but the speed of leveling up is getting slower and slower,” Li Yuan noticed. “Moreover, as time passes, the efficacy of the Spirit Fruit is rapidly declining.”
The further along one’s cultivation, the greater the gap between each level.
Furthermore, with something like the Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit, the effect of the first one is phenomenal, but the second one is significantly less effective.
“The step up in spiritual power from level 29.1 to 29.2… might even be greater than the gap from 28.7 to 29.0,” Li Yuan thought to himself.
Upon a brief estimate of the remaining medicinal power of the Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit.
Li Yuan understood that it was indeed impossible for his spiritual power to surge past level 30 today.
But Li Yuan was already immensely satisfied.
“I did not know before that the span of level 29 of spiritual power would be so vast,” Li Yuan thought to himself. “Without the Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit, by simply practicing the Visualization Method normally, it would take at least one year to raise my spiritual power from level 28.4 to 29.9.”
One Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit, saving one year?
Worth it!
In fact, if it took Li Yuan one year to practice the Visualization Method, many ordinary Prime Warriors would struggle to experience such a transformation in their lifetime.
…
Nearly another hour had passed in the blink of an eye.
“Huh!”
Liu Jing, who had consumed the Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit first, slowly opened his eyes. His previously aged face seemed to have grown much younger, and his eyes were brighter, revealing a hint of a smile: “The Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit is indeed as good as its reputation, and its effects are even stronger than what’s recorded in the database.”
“Just one piece.”
“Made my spiritual power surge by six or seven times, I reckon it’s quite decent even among Top Grade Origin Martial Artists,” Liu Jing felt deeply moved.
He gently closed his eyes.
Upon sensing his whole body with a movement of the mind, the countless subtle Vigor forces that previously seemed somewhat vague due to weak spiritual power and just having broken through Subtlety were now easily sensed in every part of his body.
This is the advantage of having strong spiritual power.
“Reach level 27 in 10 years?”
“Now, give me ten years, and I absolutely have the hope of reaching level 28,” Liu Jing made a firm resolution, reflecting on the past two days.
He had originally only planned to come to protect Li Yuan.
And what happened? He first fought a great battle with several Second Rank Flying Serpents, then had a brush with death and a breakthrough in technique, and at the end, he even got a Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit.
It was truly a turn for the better.
“Li Yuan, he really is my lucky star,” Liu Jing subconsciously looked towards Li Yuan.
He had a very favorable impression of Li Yuan.
“Li Yuan’s techniques are strong, but he is still a First Rank life, and his spiritual power is probably not as good as mine,” Liu Jing thought to himself. “With this Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit, his spiritual power will probably transform to nearly that of a Prime Warrior… His cultivation speed will also greatly increase.”
“He truly is an extraordinary genius,” Liu Jing silently regulated his breathing.
…
As Liu Jing finished his cultivation.
“[Your spiritual power has increased from level 29.8 to 29.9]” A Divine Palace prompt flashed by.
After a grueling three hours of cultivation, Li Yuan’s spiritual power finally made a difficult breakthrough to the 29.9 level.
At this moment, Li Yuan could clearly sense that the medicinal effect of the Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit in his body had almost completely depleted.
“It looks like reaching the Flying Heaven level of spiritual power will still take some time,” Li Yuan mused to himself.
But just in that instant.
“Boom~” In the world of Li Yuan’s mind, inside the Mind Spirit Divine Palace, a series of roars suddenly exploded, causing an instant throbbing pain in his head.
The pain was unbearable.
“Hmm? Mind Spirit Divine Palace?” Li Yuan noticed something unusual in the world of his mind.
With a thought, Li Yuan’s consciousness arrived at the first layer of the Mind Spirit Divine Palace.
The entire first layer now seemed as if it was daylight.
Li Yuan’s consciousness quickly detected the source of the mutation; it was the Great Sun Jade Platform.
In the past, it had always been quiet.
It was only utilized by Li Yuan when he wanted to practice the Visualization Method.
But as Li Yuan’s spiritual power reached the Second Order Limit, it seemed to have sensed something and burst into endless, dazzling light.
This light shone, as if with an intangible force, causing the entire Mind Spirit Divine Palace to sway and tremble.
“What’s going on?” Li Yuan was shocked in his heart; this was an unprecedented mutation.
Without any hesitation.
With a thought, Li Yuan’s mighty, surging spiritual power attempted to suppress the Great Sun Jade Platform to stabilize the Mind Spirit Divine Palace.
However, as soon as Li Yuan’s thoughts touched the Great Sun Jade Platform.
Boom boom boom~
Li Yuan only felt his soul shake, and the surrounding scene changed immediately. The Mind Spirit Divine Palace had vanished.
He found himself in the midst of an endless, vast starry sky, and not too far off was that eternally bright and terrifying sun, shining down its light.
The light of the sun was many times more intense than usual.
This was the place where Li Yuan would cultivate the Great Sun Starry Sky Scripture on normal days.
“It’s because of this sun,” Li Yuan immediately realized that it was the abrupt outburst of the sun.
Its light, passing through the Great Sun Jade Platform, was what made the entire Mind Spirit Divine Palace unstable.
And then it affected his own inner world.
It turned out that there was indeed a sun contained within the Great Sun Jade Platform and it wasn’t just pure imagination. This discovery shocked Li Yuan even more.
How many secrets is the Mind Spirit Divine Palace still hiding!
Sizzle~ Sizzle~!
Under the illumination of the sun, strands of scorching sunlight directly struck Li Yuan’s consciousness, sweeping over his awareness with waves of intense pain.
If it had been Li Yuan a year ago.
Under this scorching sunlight, he probably wouldn’t last a second before being overwhelmed by the pain and fainting.
But now?
With 30 levels of Willpower, 29.9 levels of spiritual power, Li Yuan could easily endure this terrible agony without batting an eye.
“Suppression.” Li Yuan had an epiphany, feeling in the dark a message being conveyed to him by the Great Sun Jade Platform.
Suppress!
The fluctuations of the Great Sun could only be suppressed by his own strength; if he couldn’t suppress it, the continued outburst of its light would cause fatal harm to both the Mind Spirit Divine Palace and Li Yuan’s inner world.
At this moment, Li Yuan faintly understood that the Mind Spirit Divine Palace wasn’t entirely a positive entity.
It was a double-edged sword.
It also contained many hidden assessments.
“Just like when I ascended to the second level, if I hadn’t had sufficient Willpower or spiritual power at that time, I couldn’t have climbed up, and my strength wouldn’t have increased as rapidly,” Li Yuan realized. “Today, with my spiritual power reaching 29.9 levels, I also reached some kind of change threshold of the Mind Spirit Divine Palace.”
“However, to bear the crown, one must endure its weight.”
“To fully adapt to the changes of the Mind Spirit Divine Palace, I must be strong enough to continue controlling all of this,” Li Yuan understood. “If I can’t adapt to these changes, the Mind Spirit Divine Palace could instead become harmful to me.”
This discovery caused Li Yuan to feel a sense of crisis in his heart.
But at this moment, he had no time to contemplate deeply.
“Boom!” The great sun in the distant starry sky had become even more blazing and unbearably bright.
“Suppress.”
Li Yuan completely unleashed his consciousness, like a miniature great sun trying to subdue the vast sun in the void.
Hum~ Li Yuan’s spiritual power, naturally insignificant compared to this great sun, seemed inconspicuous.
But as the master of his inner world, his spiritual power had a certain characteristic.
Quickly, it made the burning great sun quiet down significantly, and the Mind Spirit Divine Palace no longer trembled.
But!
Sizzle~ Sizzle~ The strands of light only weakened but did not fully retract, continuing to strike Li Yuan’s consciousness. Terrible pain swept over his awareness.
Pain! Intense pain!
Any regular Prime Warrior would have their consciousness dissipated in a short time, but Li Yuan was still holding on.
Desperately holding on.
“I must hold on, hold on,” Li Yuan silently chanted to himself, containing a fearsome obsession. Regardless of the endless agony erupting, he was still struggling to resist.
The weak but tenacious spiritual power swept across the dark starry sky, gradually calming the explosive light of the great sun.
And as the light of the great sun weakened.
“Hum~” “Hum~” In the dark starry sky behind Li Yuan’s consciousness.
It seemed to reveal phantoms of stars.
Swish swish swish~ These stars, emitting a faint starlight, were not visible under the sun’s brilliance. Now that the sun’s glow had receded, their starlights also became apparent.
They rained upon Li Yuan’s consciousness, nourishing his spiritual awareness.
At this moment, it was like countless previous visualization scenes replayed, only at a pace a hundred or a thousand times faster than before.
At this moment, as Li Yuan’s consciousness dwelled here, his spiritual growth rocketed up by hundreds, thousands of times.
Quietly.
“Boom~” As if breaking through some kind of limit of life, Li Yuan felt his spiritual awareness suddenly explode.
“[Your spiritual power has increased from 29.9 to 30.0]”
