He has just broken through the fifth layer of the Refining Qi period, and his divine consciousness, willpower, and physical state are all at an extreme peak. This is the best time to cultivate the second layer of the Lian Shen Jue. If he waits for the peak excitement of his body to pass before cultivating again, it will be even more difficult.

  "Five layers of Qi Refining!"

  Ye Chen was overjoyed to see that his Qi Refining stage five-layer Yuan Shen had transformed into a size of about five grains of soybeans, forming a half-egg-sized slowly brightening Yuan Shen. And his spiritual awareness range also rapidly expanded to as far as fifty zhang away!

  It almost surrounded the entire fifty arhat hut and shrouded the flat ground around it.

  Every faint sound around the hut was clearly audible to him.

  At the moment of breaking through the bottleneck of Yuan Shen, Ye Chen felt an extremely comfortable sensation throughout his body. As Yuan Shen grew stronger, the internal force in his body quickly increased, and a surge of more turbulent and abundant internal force flowed within him.

  All magic relies on magical power to support it. He estimated that he should now be able to release more than fifty small-scale spells like fireballs in one breath.

  Ye Chen wasn't particularly interested in the ranking of the cottages themselves.

  Everything is for cultivation.

  He rose from the hundredth hut to the fiftieth hut, just to be able to break through from the fourth layer of the Qi Refining stage to the fifth layer as soon as possible.

  This goal has been successfully achieved.

  "This time, breaking through the fifth layer of Qi Refining took a whole month and ten days! There are only twenty-odd days left before the deadline for the Tower of Demonic Cultivation! Even if I had obtained one of the top thirty cottages, it would still be impossible for me to break through from the fifth layer to the sixth layer of Qi Refining in such a short period of time."

  After Ye Chen understood this, he didn't have the mind to fight for the Luoshe anymore. If it was just for the sake of competing for the top thirty Luoshe's reputation, which couldn't bring obvious benefits, he wouldn't do it.

  He now has something even more important to attend to and must rush off to take care of it.

  "Should I go and cultivate the second layer of 'Fissure God's Secret'?"

  Ye Chen took out a mysterious manual from the storage bag, his calm eyes gazing at the divine consciousness cultivation manual in his hand, his thin lips pursed tightly.

  The pain of his last spiritual practice still lingered deeply in his heart.

  Only a year or two has passed, and this painful memory has yet to fade from his body.

  If he successfully cultivates his spiritual consciousness, his magical abilities will indirectly double. At the same time, controlling four fireballs, in an instant, can knock down a fellow cultivator of the same rank if the opponent's strength is ordinary.

  This powerful strength is enough to make him far surpass other competitors when he rushes to the Demon Tower. The top ten disciples of the Demon Tower can choose a secret book from the Immortal City!

  If cultivation of divine consciousness fails!

  "This secret book has already made it clear that once you faint during cultivation, you will suffer severe backlash and damage to your divine sense! Your own divine sense can reach up to 50 zhang at most, but if you fail, it may shrink to 30 zhang, and this is a permanent loss. The two divine senses may be reduced to one divine sense. This is the price of failure!"

  Ye Chen bitterly smiled.

  He fell into deep thought.

  He has been practicing martial arts alone in the yard since he was five years old, tempering his body. For more than a decade, he has endured countless hardships and never feared suffering!

  It was the hard training of every day that he finally rose from the lower house of Beifengyuan to the upper house, and stood out. He was arranged by Li Dazongguan to do chores in the warehouse, where he discovered the ancient painting scroll "Xianfu", which gave him an advantage over other cultivators.

  If he hadn't endured this hardship, he probably wouldn't have been able to become an Upper House disciple from being a Lower House disciple, let alone obtain the ancient painting scroll of "Xianfu" and set foot on the path of cultivating immortality.

  The pain of cultivating the second layer of "God Splitting Technique" is twice that of the first layer.

  "Refine!"

  Ye Chen's gaze gradually became more determined.

  He has just broken through the fifth layer of the Refining Qi period, and whether it is divine consciousness, willpower, or physical state, they are all in an extremely peak state, which is the best time to cultivate the second layer of the "Split God Technique". If you wait for the body's peak excitement state to pass before cultivating again, it will be even more difficult.

  Ye Chen took a deep breath and opened the third page of "God Splitting Spell", on which were two small cyan-black colored knife-shaped talismans.

  Ye Chen fetched a piece of spiritual wood from outside his hut and held it firmly in his mouth.

  Then he returned to the hut and sat down on the mat, stretched out his hand and touched the small dharma seal, absorbed the dharma seal, and began to cultivate the second layer of "Li Shen Quan".

  His primordial spirit was surrounded by a dark green knife law seal, tearing his divine consciousness apart.

  Ye Chen used his Qing Hei Dao Fa Yin, accurately cutting off two divine senses.

  In an instant, a hard-to-describe sharp pain almost pierced his entire body.

  Ye Chen clenched his teeth on the wooden block in his mouth, his forehead bulging with blue veins, letting out a cold hum, sweat dripping down his cheeks one drop at a time. He stiffened, controlling the Qinghe knife method print, continuing to tear open two divine consciousnesses.

  "You must hold on, absolutely cannot faint!"

  Half a day has passed.

  Ye Chen's physical body and will were at the peak of the fifth layer of the Qi Refining stage, still being tortured to the brink of death.

  Numbness with a stinging pain!

  Chilling to the bone, exceptionally clear-headed!

  Ye Chen's body was getting hotter and hotter, his whole body was scorching hot, and the air he emitted had a high temperature that was intense.

  "The Second Layer of the Divine Crack", this should have been a divine sense that only foundation-building cultivators could cultivate, but he was now forcibly cultivating it, which was not only a test of his willpower, but also a severe test for his physical body, which was strongly resisting the intense pain.

  The source of the pain is from the mind, but the mind is omnipresent in the body.

  Every inch of skin and flesh, every drop of blood in the meridians, is constantly warming up, as if boiling and churning.

  The magical power inside him quickly transformed into high-temperature heat.

  "It's no good, it's about to catch fire!"

  Ye Chen felt his body temperature rising higher and higher, almost as if he was about to burn up in a high fever.

  He didn't expect that forcibly splitting his divine sense again would cause such a violent reaction in his body, and under the intense stimulation of his divine sense, the temperature would rise to such an extent.

  But at this moment, he was splitting his divine sense and couldn't use his magical powers to cast ice spells to cool himself down.

  Unless he interrupts his divine consciousness split.

  "Just a little more and it'll be a success! The divine sense can't stop splitting!"

  Ye Chen's eyes turned bright red, and he let out a low growl.

  "Whoosh!"

  Ye Chen's scorching body was about to catch fire, and with a flip of his body, he rolled into the spiritual spring inside the nearby hut.

  A cool spring, suddenly gushing out hot air, rapidly boiling up.

  Ye Chen's fiery body sank into the spiritual spring.

  This spiritual spring is over ten zhang deep.

  Ye Chen sank to the bottom of the Spiritual Spring, allowing the water of the Spiritual Spring to cool down his physical body.

  After more than half a day.

  At this time, two cyan-black knife methods were printed, and "hiss" cut through two divine consciousness.

  Extremely precise, splitting two divine consciousnesses into four completely separate divine consciousnesses.

  "After all, I have four divine consciousnesses!"

  Ye Chen immersed himself in the icy spiritual spring water, his exhausted face revealed a joyful expression after a period of hardship.

  The most critical pass has finally passed.

  Regardless of how it happened, he took the enormous risk of divine sense splitting failure and finally succeeded in cultivating the second layer of "Divine Crack Technique".

  Four divine consciousnesses!

  This huge harvest is worth all of this!

  A whole day of suffering is totally worth it.

  "If it weren't for this spiritual spring that constantly gushes out water, the physical body would probably burn up! The 'Split God Technique' didn't record such a situation!"

  Ye Chen slowly opened his mouth, almost biting through the Lingmu wood, and his scorching hot body, which was about to spew out flames, had also cooled down, slowly starting to chill.

  Ye Chen felt a strong wave of fatigue wash over him. The update from the Heavenly Fire Dragon King brought this exhaustion, as if he had been fighting for dozens of days and finally found some temporary rest.

  He endured his fatigue.

  He wanted to release a few spells, using his four divine senses to control them, but unexpectedly found that the spiritual power in his body was almost exhausted in this high temperature. "Forget it, I'm too tired, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

  "Ah!"

  Lingquan, suddenly surged out a large piece of pale blue light, completely wrapping Ye Chen who was immersed in the Lingquan. This light surged into Ye Chen's body.

  Ye Chen's internal consumption of spiritual power was depleted in an instant, and he almost recovered immediately.

  "What's going on? What's happened?"

  Ye Chen suddenly woke up from his drowsiness, completely startled awake.

  He kicked his toes at the bottom of the spiritual spring, and with a "whoosh", he splashed the water surface of the spiritual spring, and landed on one side beside the spiritual spring.

  The entire large house of over ten zhang in size was already shrouded in a white misty heat haze.

  His scorching body, almost on fire, caused a large amount of steam to be produced from the spiritual spring water.

  Ye Chen's astonished gaze was fixed on the spiritual spring that had emerged from the stone crevices in the ground.

  His mana was clearly completely empty, but in an instant, a faint blue light suddenly burst out of the spiritual spring, allowing his meridian's mana to recover instantly.

  This is an unbelievable thing.

  "If it's with a spirit stone, it'll take an incense stick's worth of time to recover one's magical powers."

  "Even if you drank Chen Sang's brewed Ling wine, it would still take a little while to slowly recover!"

  Ye Chen was stunned for a long time and couldn't figure it out.

  "Lingquan, isn't it just a spring that emits spiritual energy? Could it be a spiritual treasure as well?"

  "But it's inside the mountain peak stone wall, and it's probably not easy to get out!"
