Chapter 29: Breakthrough (1)
Innumerable creatures lived on their own bodies, each one, every plant, was clearly visible before their eyes. Ye Qing could see Feng Wu practicing quietly in her palace, and when she gazed at her, she startled the meditating Feng Wu.
As soon as Feng Wu woke up, Ye Qing quickly withdrew his gaze, probably because he had a guilty conscience. Suddenly, Ye Qing wanted to see what was outside this space and felt an endless darkness that was all too familiar to him. He couldn't remember where he had seen it before, but suddenly a flash of insight struck him - wasn't this the endless void he had been in before coming to this universe? He had almost died in that boundless dark expanse back then. Ye Qing's heart skipped a beat as he realized that meant he was now outside the Hongyuan Universe. He sensed it and indeed felt the boundless Hongyuan Universe behind him. Ye Qing found it strange that he hadn't detected the destructive energy that had almost destroyed him in the dark void before. What Ye Qing didn't know was that since the Hongyuan Universe was opened, it had been constantly expanding under the influence of the remaining layer of chaotic chaos, producing a wave that kept the destructive forces at bay outside a certain range of the universe, so it wasn't strange that Ye Qing couldn't feel the chaotic energy.
Ye Qing felt the infinite energy pouring in from afar, wave after wave of energy tides crashing against the spatial barrier surrounding Jie Mo Island, giving rise to a kaleidoscope of colors.
Ye Qing attempted to control the space and absorbed a bit of energy, wanting to see if this newly born space could absorb the energy here. As the space began to consciously absorb some of the surrounding energy under Ye Qing's guidance, he suddenly felt that after the void energy was absorbed by the space, the ancestral spirit vein quickly absorbed and transformed these energies into innate spiritual energy with the help of the Five Elements Array, releasing any excess. Moreover, Ye Qing felt that after absorbing energy, the space had expanded a bit.
As soon as Ye Qing felt that the space could absorb these energies, he guided the space to fully absorb the energies of the void. Countless massive energies were frantically absorbed by the space like a tidal wave, transforming into innate spiritual energy. Although the energy absorbed by the space was enormous, it was insignificant compared to the infinite vastness of the void, just like dust in the universe that didn't catch the eye. Endless energy was being absorbed by the space, and with the help of the Five Elements Annihilation Array, the ancestral spiritual vein continuously produced innate spiritual energy. In an instant, the concentration of innate spiritual energy in the entire space rose linearly, and the space continued to expand. On the outskirts of Jie Mo Island, barren land could be seen producing at a visible speed.
Everything in the space couldn't escape Ye Qing's perception, and the change in the space suddenly made Ye Qing think of using the acquired treasure to form a huge space. It turned out that Ye Qing was still very curious about how the Big Five Elements Extinguishing Sword Array formed such a large space, and its energy was even comparable to Hong Huang. At first, Ye Qing thought it was formed by absorbing Hong Huang's energy, but unexpectedly, it was actually absorbing energy from the dark void.
This change made Ye Qing understand the preciousness of the Big Five Elements Extinguishing Sword Array, and from then on, he no longer worried about insufficient energy when cultivating.
But that's for later, now Ye Qing is mainly cultivating the Jie Mo Dao to improve his cultivation. He splits out a thread of his soul to control the Da Wu Xing Ju Mie Da Zhen and absorb the infinite energy from the dark void.
He instructed Feng Wu to start closing the Grand Temple with a single sound, and then immersed himself in the temple to practice the Jie Mo Dao.
Ye Qing was immersed in the profound and mysterious techniques of the Devil's Path, when suddenly Ye Qing opened his eyes, and a burst of essence shot out from them. The room turned white, and gradually, Ye Qing's eyelids closed again, his breath growing weaker and weaker, until he seemed to have transformed into a boulder. Inside the room, there was complete silence, with only a gentle breeze passing through the gap under the door, making a low humming sound...
The cultivation of the Jie Mo Dao first transforms the Xian Yuan produced by the Evolution Technique into a knife yuan that is unique to the Jie Mo Dao, condensed from knife energy and spiritual power. The knife yuan possesses immense destructive power and life force, which is extremely useful for cultivating one's body. Moreover, the knife yuan is much purer and more refined than the Xian Yuan, with its destructive power being ten or even a hundred times that of the Xian Yuan. Of course, condensing the knife yuan requires spiritual energy that is ten or even a hundred times that required for the Xian Yuan. Fortunately, Ye Qing discovered that the Da Wu Xing Jue Extinction Array can absorb energy from the endless dark void, otherwise, it's unknown how much energy would be needed to cultivate in the Hong Huang universe.
Ye Qing carefully and cautiously activated the Xianyuan within his body, slowly transforming it into a strand of knife essence through the Jie Mo Dao technique. After expending over a dozen portions of Xianyuan to transform into one portion of knife essence, Ye Qing let out a breath in his heart. The first transformation was a waste, but afterwards, he would only need ten portions of Xianyuan to transform into one portion of knife essence.
Inside the body, a vast amount of Xianyuan was rapidly converted into silver-colored Daoyuan at a ratio of 10:1. With the support of this vast Xianyuan, Ye Qing quickly broke through the first layer, second layer, third layer, fourth layer... of the Jiemodao, and charged all the way to the sixth layer, reaching the seventh layer of the Jiemodao. At that time, all the Xianyuan in Ye Qing's body had been converted into Daoyuan.
When Ye Qing's Xian Yuan was completely depleted, he began to connect with the Da Wuxing Jumie Array, directly absorbing the endless energy from the dark void and converting it into silver knife yuan in his body. At this level of Ye Qing, any energy can be easily converted into internal energy, no longer limited by the distinction between innate spiritual energy and acquired spiritual energy, but only by the amount of conversion. Moreover, Jie Mo Dao's Gong Fa is unparalleled, and it is the most outstanding among them.
In the dark void, the endless energy waves were constantly being absorbed by Ye Qing, and constantly transformed into extremely pure silver knife yuan within his body. As soon as the energy entered Ye Qing's body, he felt his body being torn apart by these violent energies. However, under the powerful technique of Ye Qing's Jie Mo Dao, they obediently transformed into the unique knife yuan of Jie Mo Dao. Moreover, Ye Qing discovered that after transformation, these violent energies were even more refined than the innate spiritual energy, and only in the chaotic air, so Ye Qing continued to absorb the energy from the dark void with all his might.
In the dark void, an endless and violent energy was constantly being absorbed by Ye Qing into his body, transforming into a pure and unparalleled knife yuan. The Jie Mo Dao cultivation method was rapidly breaking through the mid-term of the seventh layer, reaching the peak of the seventh layer of the Jie Mo Dao, but got stuck here. Ye Qing knew that the Jie Mo Dao cultivation method had already reached the realm of his previous quasi-saint twelve heavenly peaks, and if he broke through further, he would become a quasi-saint. Reaching this realm could produce a thread of acquired yuan spirit, and killing such a strong person would also be very difficult when a thread of acquired yuan spirit was produced.
The original spirit has a distinction between acquired and innate, those who possess the acquired original spirit are the acquired saint-level strongmen, of course, the innate saints possess the innate original spirit. The innate original spirit and the acquired original spirit have a complete difference in quality, this is not to say that there is a gap in strength between the innate saints and the acquired saints, although generally speaking, the innate saints who possess the innate original spirit are stronger than the acquired saints who possess the acquired original spirit, but this gap does not mean that an innate saint can easily destroy an acquired saint. Saint-level strongmen rely entirely on their own strength to fight, some acquired saints have even stronger combat power than innate saints. The distinction between innate saints and acquired saints lies in the difference between the innate original spirit and the acquired original spirit, the innate original spirit of the innate saints is more resilient and has a stronger recovery ability compared to the original spirit of the acquired saints. This is the difference between innate saints and acquired saints.
