Journey to the West: A clone sacrifices to the heavens, possessing boundless magical power.

Chapter 137 Condensing the Divine Soul

In the quiet room of an inconspicuous inn in the capital of Baoxiang Kingdom.

Fan Yuan closed his eyes and sat cross-legged. His body trembled violently, and then he let out a long sigh.

Just a moment ago, his clone, Yun Zhongzi, died.

His death was extremely gruesome; his flesh and meridians were torn apart by the violent force, turning into dust, leaving not a single drop of blood or flesh behind.

But Fan Yuan's face revealed an uncontrollable ecstasy.

He immediately immersed his consciousness into his sea of ​​consciousness.

Deep within the sea of ​​consciousness, the ancient [Primordial Myriad Forms Mirror] shone brightly, ripples spreading across its surface, and lines of text rapidly emerged:

[The clone Yun Zhongzi has died; the karmic settlement is underway.]

[Clone's lifespan: 15 days.]

[Cause of death of the clone: ​​Having swallowed the exquisite inner core of the relic, it absorbed too much power from the stars and could not withstand it. Countless rays of starlight shot out, and both its form and spirit were destroyed.]

[Clone feedback rate: 20%]

[Settlement complete. The host can choose one of the following three options:]

[Part One: Cultivation Initiation: Star Constellation Soul Power.]

[Note: At the moment the clone exploded, a wisp of pure star spirit power was extracted from the inner core. This power originated from the White Tiger constellation of the Twenty-Eight Mansions and can be used to refine the divine soul.]

[Part Two: Fragments of Memory. The Enlightenment of a Fallen Star.]

[Note: At the moment the clone was burst apart by the power of the stars, I briefly experienced the supreme sensation of the condensation of the star's essence into my soul.]

III. Insights into the Technique. None.

[Note: No legal principles or mysteries were discovered during the clone's survival.]

Looking at the words on the mirror, Fan Yuan slowly loosened his clenched fists, feeling much calmer.

Bet right.

Upon obtaining the exquisite inner core of the relic, he had no intention of having his clone, Yun Zhongzi, bring it back to his main body.

The Wind Chaser is definitely lingering near the Wave Moon Cave!

Once the clone leaves the area of ​​Wave Moon Cave with such a precious treasure as the relic and exquisite inner core, it will inevitably be exposed to the sight of the Wind Patrol Envoy.

The clone was met with a devastating attack from the Heavenly Court, so the moment Fan Yuan obtained the inner core, he gave only one order: swallow it immediately!

Even if the clone explodes and dies, as long as it is swallowed, the feedback settlement of the [Primordial Myriad Appearances Mirror] will be triggered.

If we can retain even 20% of the feedback, it's a huge profit!

Fan Yuan's gaze swept over the three options.

Option three can be eliminated immediately.

While option two is extremely helpful for comprehending the Great Dao, what he lacks most right now is not the vague and ethereal understanding, but rather a real realm and power.

"I choose one."

Fan Yuan made a decisive choice.

Cultivation empowerment!

This wisp of star spirit power was exactly what he had needed most in the past.

His current cultivation level is stuck at the Great Perfection of Refining Spirit, and the divine soul in his sea of ​​consciousness is just a blurry phantom.

If one were to cultivate the "Breathing and Exhaling Clouds Chapter" step by step, relying on absorbing the energy of clouds and mist between heaven and earth to gradually refine one's soul, it would be impossible to know when one's soul would be completely solidified and one could break through to the Refining Void stage.

This world is fraught with danger, and he doesn't have much time to slowly endure it.

The feedback from this relic's inner core further convinced him of one thing: this world truly possesses top-tier natural treasures that can instantly condense the soul, bypassing the arduous process of refining it.

It would be perfect if the main body could break through this barrier.

However, Fan Yuan was also well aware that the "Breathing Exercises in the Clouds" and subsequent cultivation techniques were still indispensable.

Because his clone Shen Feng, who remained at Wuzhuang Temple, had a very low initial cultivation level, he could only rely on cultivation techniques to slowly practice breathing exercises.

Shen Feng's existence has a deeper meaning.

As long as Shen Feng cultivates step by step, and the initial form of the Samadhi Divine Wind within his body is perfected, Fan Yuan will be able to directly allow his main body to master this complete great divine power through the connection of the [Primordial Myriad Forms Mirror]!

Thinking of this, a glint of light flashed in Fan Yuan's eyes.

He had integrated the true meaning of Samadhi Divine Wind, which he had comprehended himself, into the prototype of his self-created supernatural power, "Crushing Mountain Force," and developed it to the third level.

In the future, if it can be integrated with several other great divine abilities of different attributes, when the "Mountain Collapse Force" is completely transformed into a complete great divine ability, its power will be unparalleled, and may even surpass those great divine abilities that are born innately.

Fan Yuan never felt he had too many supernatural abilities.

Just as his thoughts were racing, the feedback from the [Primordial Mirror of All Forms] began.

boom!

The mirror trembled violently, and a dazzling silver-white light shot out from it, spreading directly from Fan Yuan's sea of ​​consciousness.

This is no ordinary spiritual energy, but a wisp of pure star spirit power originating from the Kui Wood Wolf Star Lord of the Seven Mansions of the White Tiger!

This soul power was cold and murderous, with a sharpness that could cut through everything, but under the transformation of the [Primordial Myriad Appearances Mirror], it became extremely docile and was injected into the blurry divine soul phantom in the center of Fan Yuan's sea of ​​consciousness without reservation.

Initiation, begin.

Fan Yuan immediately focused his mind and fully activated his cultivation technique to guide this enormous power.

Within the sea of ​​consciousness, the originally vague outline of the divine soul, upon contact with the star soul power, was like parched land receiving rain after a long drought, and began to devour it frantically.

The process of concentrating was clearly displayed in Fan Yuan's inner vision.

As the silvery-white star spirit power continued to entwine and permeate, the blurry phantom began to undergo a qualitative change.

The edges of the phantom twitched, and the outlines of the two arms and two legs quickly lengthened and solidified.

The details of the finger bones, palms, and ankles, sculpted by the power of the stars, gradually emerge, no longer appearing as a blurry gaseous state, but rather exhibiting a translucent, crystalline texture.

Then, the soul power, like tangible threads, constructed the prototype of meridians and bones within the phantom, making the entire divine soul's body upright and resilient.

Finally, the star spirit power converged on the phantom's face, and lines began to appear on the face that was originally as smooth as a faceless person.

High brow bone, straight nose, and slightly pursed lips.

In just a dozen breaths, the facial features of the illusory soul were fully formed.

That face was exactly the same as Fan Yuan's original body, even the cold and fierce curve of the corner of the eye was exactly the same.

Swish!

The illusory figure's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened.

Deep within his pupils, a faint silvery-white starlight swirled, completely erasing any trace of his previous dazedness and illusion.

It was as if a living being with a truly independent will was sitting cross-legged in the center of his sea of ​​consciousness.

At the very moment when the soul was completely solidified.

Click.

It was as if an invisible shackle within Fan Yuan's body had been instantly broken.

This is the barrier between the Spirit Refining stage and the Void Refining stage.

There are no obstacles, no bottlenecks.

With the forceful enhancement of pure star spirit power, Fan Yuan's realm of refining spirit at its peak naturally crossed that insurmountable barrier, and he stepped into the early stage of refining void without any hindrance!

Boom!

A massive aura, more than ten times stronger than before, erupted from Fan Yuan's body.

The tables and chairs in the quiet room instantly turned to dust under this invisible pressure. Fan Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. The wisp of pressure that had been dissipating then rolled back and was completely absorbed into the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness.
