Chapter 970: Special Care (1/2)

Eventually, Nie Tian only found out about the origins and uses of the Nine Stars Flower and the leaves of the Tree of Godly Spirit from his trip to the Records Pavilion.

He still knew nothing regarding the flame spark.

Recently, whenever he refined his spiritual cores, he would feel like he was stuck at a bottleneck. He thought the reason lay with his wood power core.

For some reason, every time he refined his wood power core, he would feel disturbed and uneasy.

This was the first time he had ever had this peculiar feeling.

It seemed that even though he had figured out the profound uses of the tree leaves and Nine Stars Flower, it didn’t help him break through the bottleneck.

“Wood power core…” Deeply baffled, he muttered inwardly as he walked out the gate of the Records Pavilion towards the Vast Heaven Pavilion.

Along the way, many Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace disciples secretly kept their eyes on him.

As he arrived in front of the Vast Heaven Pavilion, a figure suddenly flashed into appearance.

Nie Tian hastily bowed respectfully. “Grand elder!”

Clearly, he hadn’t expected the person to be Mo Heng.

Mo Heng’s figure looked blurry and illusory as he waved his hand slightly, signaling him not to stand on ceremony. “Let’s talk inside.”

The two of them then quickly entered the Vast Heaven Pavilion.

Only after that did Mo Heng’s figure grow clear, assuming a clear appearance, as if his true self had finally arrived.

Mo Heng seemed to have some scruples, as if he didn’t want people to know that he had come to meet Nie Tian in private.

“Didn’t they say that you weren’t in the Realm of Fragmentary Star, grand elder?” Nie Tian asked curiously.

He had asked Tao Jin on their way to meet Wei Lai, and learned that Mo Heng hadn’t returned from his trip.

“I just got back,” Mo Heng explained lightly before asking in a low voice, “Tao Jin told me that you seem to have run into some difficulties in your cultivation. Wanna talk to me about them?”

“Of course.” Without holding anything back, Nie Tian told him out his problem with refining his flame power, wood power, and star power cores, and how he would feel disturbed and stuck.

“Let me see.” With these words, Mo Heng flicked his finger.

A small amount of pure spiritual power that was completely bereft of any attributes flew smoothly into Nie Tian’s spiritual sea in his dantian region.

Like an eye, the spiritual power flowed around within Nie Tian’s spiritual power. In one moment, it observed his flame power core closely. In the next moment, it focused on his star power core and wood power core.

However, Nie Tian’s spiritual sea didn’t reject it the whole time.

“Pure spiritual power without any attributes... such a strange person...” Nie Tian wondered, finding this intriguing.

So far, he had met more Qi warriors than he could count, but every single one of them had specific cultivation attributes, such as fire, lightning, ice, wood, and many others.

The rarest of all was time power, which his master practiced, and spatial power, which Pei Qiqi practiced.

However, the bit of glowing spiritual power that flew out of Mo Heng’s fingertip into his spiritual sea was bereft of any attributes. It was nothing but pure spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth, the same as the spiritual power within spirit stones, spirit jades, and spirit crystals.

Perhaps that was the reason why his spiritual sea didn’t reject it.

Soon, that bit of glowing spiritual power flew to Nie Tian’s pure spiritual power core, which also didn’t have any attributes.

After examining it for awhile, the bit of spiritual power flew out of Nie Tian’s spiritual sea and vanished into Mo Heng.

“Did you repeat the refinement of your flame power, wood power, and star power cores this whole time?” Mo Heng asked. “I bet the Nine Stars Flower, leaves of the Godspirit Tree, and that flame spark that I don’t recognize have greatly improved your efficiency when refining those three cores, right?”

Nie Tian nodded gently. “That’s right.”
