Chapter 537: Chapter 315 Process

Even when the second-grade “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” within Li Shiming’s Spirit Lake operated at full capacity, it couldn’t help him transform the cultivated Spiritual Power into pure Spiritual Power.

This left his ridians filled with Spiritual Power, which kept accumulating more and more, that even though he had taken a top-grade third-rank Vessel Protecting Pill, he still felt a faint pain throughout his ridians.

He knew how to deal with this situation, but he couldn’t guarantee that his judgnt was correct, or that his earlier idea would succeed.

At this point, all he could do was to proceed according to his previous idea.

The second-grade “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” within the Spirit Lake connected with the third-grade “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” outside his body, he intentionally drew the energy of the third-grade Five Elents Array Materials from the five nodes of the third-grade “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” into his body, based on his own research on formations.

If it were a normal situation, he would not have been able to do this at all.

But now it was different. He was in the state of ascension, with the rules of Heaven and Earth lingering around him, allowing him to absorb a vast amount of Spiritual Energy, for his Spirit Lake to accommodate more Spiritual Power.

It was also because of the influence of the rules of Heaven and Earth, that he had so confidence he could upgrade the grade of the “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” within his Spirit Lake.

Under his conscious guidance, the energy from the five nodes of the third-grade “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” traveled along the connection lines between the two “Five Elents Qi Absorption Arrays,” entering the nodes of the corresponding “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” in the Spirit Lake.

The speed of purifying Spiritual Power in the second-grade “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” within his body increased rapidly as the Five Elents Energy in the nodes of the “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” grew, and the light from the five nodes of the third-grade “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” around him was dimming.

The events happening to him made Elder Su and Elder Ma look at each other in dismay, not knowing what kind of problem had occurred.

Elder Su and Elder Ma were broadly knowledgeable, yet they had never seen what was happening to Li Shiming.

Moreover, Li Shiming was in the middle of ascending, so the two elders didn’t dare use Divine Thought to observe him, they could only judge based on experience with their eyes.

Without any experience to offer help, the two elders couldn’t understand what Li Shiming was doing.

And precisely because they didn’t understand, the two elders beca even more worried.

Elder Su and Elder Ma hadn’t been very concerned about Li Shiming’s breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage initially.

Although Li Shiming’s spirit root seeds were not good, his fortune was indeed too profound; while there were both good and bad aspects, a profound fortune definitely provided an advantage in breaking through bottlenecks.

Elder Su and Elder Ma optimistically thought that if soone with as profound a fortune as Li Shiming couldn’t break through to the Golden Core Stage, then that profound fortune would be false.

But it was only when Li Shiming actually began his breakthrough that they realized, no matter how profound his fortune was, it could not endure Li Shiming’s recklessness.

Look at how Li Shiming was ascending: first, he operated two Cultivation Techniques at the sa ti, greedily trying to gain the effects of both techniques’ enhancent for his Golden Core.

And now, he conjured a bizarre Five Elents Formation, seemingly absorbing the energy of the Five Elents Array.

Elder Su even thought that if Li Shiming succeeded in ascending to the Golden Core, that would be the real surprise.

He had already begun considering, if Li Shiming’s ascension failed, how to console his spirits so that Li Shiming wouldn’t fall into a slump.

Li Shiming had no idea about his masters’ thoughts; at that mont, his entire mind was imrsed in the ascension, as the second-grade Five Elents Energy within the “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” in his body was being replaced by the third-grade Five Elents Energy.

This replacent process took a quarter of an hour, after which the “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” in his Spirit Lake was upgraded to a third-grade “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array.”

With the “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” improved to the third grade, the speed of Spiritual Power within increased significantly. The Spiritual Power he absorbed, cultivated, and transford was easily purified by the third-grade “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array,” turning into the purest Five Elents Spiritual Power.

With the “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” obstacle gone, Li Shiming’s rate of Spiritual Energy absorption increased once again. At this ti, all the Spiritual Energy of Sword Holding Peak was drained, leaving only the spirit veins within the cave dwelling, which barely sufficed for Li Shiming’s absorption, thanks to the enhancent of the third-grade golden chains and the Spirit Cleansing Carp.

Elder Su and Elder Ma watched as the “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” lost its spiritual nature, turning into mundane objects, but found that this had no impact on Li Shiming’s ascension; on the contrary, it intensified the reaction of the Spiritual Power within him, which they saw as a good sign.

But in an instant, they noticed that trouble was brewing again. Li Shiming’s peak was supplied with an individual spirit vein that could sustain a Golden Core cultivator’s full-force cultivation.

Yet such a spirit vein showed signs of being insufficient to support Li Shiming’s absorption.

They couldn’t imagine why Li Shiming’s Spirit Lake could absorb Spiritual Energy so rapidly. Even though it was because of the ascension state, influenced by Heaven and Earth Rules, Li Shiming’s rate of Spiritual Energy absorption still exceeded that of a Golden Core cultivator.

Li Shiming also didn’t know why, after absorbing so much Spiritual Energy, plus the conversion of the Spiritual Energy into Spiritual Power by the two Cultivation Techniques, and entering into the Spirit Lake.

Based on what he saw during his eldest senior sister’s breakthrough, and the information provided by the sect, Spiritual Power should be contracting in his Spirit Lake at this stage, with the center of contraction being where the Golden Core embryo ford.

But until now, despite absorbing more than twice as much Spiritual Energy as his eldest senior sister had, his Spirit Lake still showed no signs of Spiritual Power contraction.

Just as he was uncertain about what to do next, the third-grade “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” underwent a mutation.

One could say that no cultivator had ever attempted to incorporate a Formation into the interior of their Spirit Lake, forming an array within the Spirit Lake was a product of his undirected experintation, without any master’s guidance.
