Chapter 908: Breakthrough (2/2)

“Only after that did the ancient outsider starships sail into the Domain of Heaven Python. Even death cannot atone for his crime!”

However, as soon as Jing Feiyang spoke, everyone fell silent. “Xing Lifeng deserves to die, yet his death won’t turn the situation around. Have your subordinates keep a close watch on him. But the crucial part is whether your junior martial brother will be able to enter the Profound realm and help us establish connections to the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace within a short time.

“This city will stand for a while even if ninth grade Demon and Phantasm grand patriarchs arrive.

“Our grand spell formation consists of countless magical seals that we’ve accumulated over thousands of years. It won’t be easily breached.”

Duan Shihu nodded. “Got it.”

...

Two weeks passed.

At the top of the stone pavilion the Divine Seal Sect had assigned to Nie Tian in the Realm of Maelstrom.

With the help of the numerous materials that contained soul power, which Jing Rou had gone to great lengths to find for him, Nie Tian finally formed his third sub-soul.

The third sub-soul was branded with many secrets about star power.

As soon as it came to form, Nie Tian was struck by a fascinating feeling that not only were his star power sub-soul and vortex of star power connected in a profound, unobstructed way, but even the third fragmentary star mark seemed to light up because of the change.

At this moment, many more ancient magical symbols suddenly appeared within the second fragmentary star mark.

Originally, the second fragmentary star mark had recorded two secret magics: Star Soul and Starchain.

The appearance of new ancient magical symbols meant that a brand-new soul magic had revealed itself.

Nie Tian’s sub-souls shone brightly in his sea of awareness as they took it upon themselves to realign the newborn ancient magical symbols and analyze the profound mysteries within them.

At the same time, his two other sub-souls resonated with his true soul.

As that happened, fundamental changes seemed to be triggered in his spiritual core and three vortexes of different attributes.

WHOOSH!

Nie Tian instantly experienced a peculiar feeling that his soul had been separated from his body.

While he was lost in this feeling, he suddenly saw his true soul floating ethereally out from between his eyebrows.

An ecstatic look then appeared in his eyes. “The Profound realm!”

The ability to separate one’s soul from one’s body marked a cultivator’s advancement to the Profound realm.

Only after possessing such an ability would a cultivator have a chance at securing his true soul and seeking to be reborn in case his fleshly body was destroyed in battle.

It was just that Nie Tian felt rather weak and unsteady when his true soul left his fleshly body, as if, at the Profound realm, his true soul was still not refined enough to be separated from his fleshly body for a considerable period of time.

This meant that if his fleshly body perished at the Profound realm, his true soul wouldn’t be able to drift along by itself for too long.

“Perhaps only after entering the Soul realm will my true soul be free of the restraints of my flesh and blood, and be able to travel around over a long period of time.”

As soon as Nie Tian came to such enlightenment, he sensed great changes in his spiritual sea in his dantian region.

His spiritual core and three vortexes all showed a strong desire for more power.

Then, his true soul flew unstably back to his sea of awareness after only a few seconds of separation.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Numerous spiritual materials of different attributes were piled up in front of him.

He instantly calmed himself, as he knew that he had merely eliminated the barrier in his cultivation, but hadn’t completed the breakthrough yet.

Therefore, he started channeling power from the cultivation materials into his spiritual sea, heedless of anything else.

As he did, bits of star power fell out of the starry river through the watery curtain over the Realm of Maelstrom that looked like a well.

Like snowflakes, they melted as soon as they touched him, but then reappeared in his vortex of star power.

The Nine Stars Flower shone dazzlingly as it seemed to be helping him gather star power.

The three tree leaves he had gained from the Stone Golem capital also grew active in the lake of liquid wood power at the bottom of the vortex of wood power, as if to help him improve his efficiency of absorbing wood power.

Nie Tian thus closed his eyes to eliminate all distracting thoughts from his mind, and focus on the refinement of his spiritual core and three vortexes.
