Lex trained his body for half of a day, then absorbed the 2 clones that were cultivating and training, leaving the clone that was learning the ntal Void thod.
After absorbing and strengthening himself he reford the two clones again and gave them the sa instructions, but this ti Lex cultivated his energy and after another half of a day reabsorbed the sa two clones.
After suppressing and absorbing the energy and power from the clones, Lex had strengthened himself once again and could feel that he was nearing a limit that he would need to surpass.
After another half of a day, Lex completed the sa cycle, however, this ti felt as though he had reached his bottleneck of so sort and was unsure of what to do.
Conveniently the clone that was learning the ntal Void thod finished while he was contemplating on what to do to break past the bottleneck that he had reached.
He placed his palm on the clone and as soon as he retracted the cloning he instantly felt sothing jolt into his mind as everything that the clone had obtained in knowledge of the ntal Void thod was transferred into his mind.
Angela and the Jade Empress within the golden hall could hear inhumane screams of pain from within the room that Lex was in as his mind was pulsating with excruciating pain.
Suddenly jumping up, Angela was about to run over to Lex with a worried expression.
"Focus on your cultivation child and don't worry about your friend, he is strong-willed and seems to be pushing himself past his limits to gain strength as quickly as possible" stated the Jade Empress to Angela who knew that if she intervened it could have bigger consequences and wanted her disciple to focus and take in everything she was taught before her Soul force diminished.
Angela sat back down, but still found it hard to concentrate with the constant screams.
After almost half an hour of constant screaming, they finally reached a halt after Lex managed to regain control himself enough to stop screaming.
It was an extre pain that he went through as he squird around on the ground and scread at the top of his lungs as his mind felt as though it was about to burst.
It was not until an hour passed that Lex was actually able to function and sat up and stread large amounts of energy to his head and circulated it to attempt to reduce the pain and recover from the ntal strain.
"How the fuck is this only slightly painful" mumbled Lex with his now hoarse voice after all the screaming, rembering the system had described it as only slight pain.
It took Lex an entire day to almost completely recover where the continuously pulsating pain reached a level that wouldn't have an effect on Lex's functionality and he was too eager to begin cultivating with his new cultivation thod to care about the pain.
During the day that he was recovering from his ntal strain, Lex also scoured the beginning parts of the thod that showed him how to cultivate the Spacial Elent by using the eyes, mind and emotions and linking them to the void, and found exactly what he was looking for.
There was a thod for him to break through to the Earth Mortal Rank that would usually take a few months or years for people to overco the barrier, but for Lex, if he followed the thod, he would be able to accomplish it within a day.
He didn't need to worry about food to sustain his body and neither did Angela with the dense and thick energy in the environnt within the temple that the Jade Empress accomplished with the abundant amount of Corpse Cores she had accumulated over the ti she had been there.
The thod instructed him to reach an ethereal state where his emotions and mind would reach a harmony where he would beco unaffected by anything and would beco empty in the sa way the void is.
The gap between the Mortal and Earth Mortal rank for a human is when they ascend past their mortal origin and officially beco cultivators and begin as Earth Mortals which is the starting LVL of cultivation and because of humans being born as a weak race, they have to train to reach that stage.
Humans despite being one of the weakest races from birth, they are also known for evolving and consistently improving and mutating to produce more and more talents over ti and have the largest population.
The Mortal Rank was rely a pathway for one to prepare their body for true cultivation and requires at least ten tis the strength of a normal Mortal to begin.
Which is why out of the 100 LVLs each one would normally increase the user's strength by 10% making them 10 tis stronger by the ti they reach the Mortal Rank, whereas, in Lex's situation, his strength was already comparable to that of a low LVL Earth Mortal that had stepped into the realms of cultivation.
[I need to break past the limits of suppressed mortality and need to break into the ranks of real cultivation. So according to the ntal Void thod, I need to break past the chains of being suppressed both in terms of Internal and External Cultivation and will use large amounts of Spacial Energy to push my body past the limit in one burst of power] he thought to himself.
"But there is one problem, it will only work if my mind and emotions are as clear, endless and empty as the void and if my mind can't reach a void-like state, I will suffer extre backlash" he mumbled to himself with a worried expression.
Then it struck him.
"I have the perfect solution. My clones don't have emotion and have a clear and empty mind anyway so they can initiate the breakthrough state for and I will absorb their gains all at once which will allow my body to break into the Earth Mortal Rank in the Spacial Energy Burst that is in the ntal Void thod" he exclaid.
The plan was perfect, the only contingency was whether Lex would be able to stay in the void-like state during the absorption process.
Forming 3 clones one after the other, stopping between each one to recover his energy, Lex had three clones sat before him on the gravitational pad that was multiplying the gravity over them.
"Use the ntal Void thod to cultivate spacial energy and cultivate both your Internal and External Cultivation and absorb as much energy as you can" ordered Lex to his clones
The ntal Void thod was a wondrous cultivation ability and its main focus was the mind as the na suggests. It wasn't to improve or strengthen the mind, but was to allow the mind to stay clear and unaffected by emotions and anything else, in the sa way that the void is.
For this Spacial Energy Burst to be successful, it was all down to Lex's ntal state when he uses the energy from the clones to break his body past the barrier of the Mortal Rank that would usually take a lot of ti in order for him to be able to do so.
Sitting in between all three of his clones as they were all huddled close together and sitting cross-legged, Lex made sure that he was in contact with them in preparation for the Spacial Energy Burst that needs to be large and sudden.
Lex following the thod to calm his mind, closed his eyes and attempted to link his mind to the void in order to enable him to be able to gain the clarity that the emptiness of the void would provide him.
Emotion was shunned in the process and Lex focused on his mind being clear and unshakable just like the void and after what felt like an instant and an eternity Lex felt that sa sensation that he was in the void.
However, instead of struggling and thinking to himself that he is suffocating in the void, like he did when he accidentally activated the thod, Lex knew that it was part of the thod and kept calm as he felt his body float through the void.
The thod explained to him that it was rely an astral form and extension of himself that would act as a link between himself in the void and allow him to cultivate pure Spacial Energy from its root and allow his mind to experience true emptiness.
After a few seconds, he felt that his astral form was tearing and couldn't sustain the pressure and after exactly 5 seconds shattered as Lex suddenly opened his eyes and found himself still in the training chamber with his clones.
"I was able to last 5 seconds this ti and not be instantly wiped out" he observed as he wiped the sweat off his forehead.
What felt like 5 seconds within the void was actually 5 hours in reality and the ti in the void could flow much faster or could also flow much slower.
Feeling the brimming energy from his clones that were much more suited to cultivating the ntal Void thod, Lex felt that he had cleared his mind and could feel the emptiness that the thod described.
It was neither a good nor a bad feeling, but Lex felt as though his ntal state was stronger than it had ever been and knew that the effects of the ntal Void were only temporary, but would rub off on the user over ti, so knew it was the optimum ti to attempt the breakthrough.
Reabsorbing all his clones at once and keeping calm as he was sward with a large amount of Spacial Energy cultivated by his clones, Lex spread it to every cell in his body and around all his ridians and his dantian as he forcefully stored it as the Spacial Energy Burst had described.
It was over in a matter of instants as there was a large explosion.
