[Divine Power Value]: 6.2 (Automatically increases by 0.2 daily)
[Luck Value]: 74,000
Besides Heaven and Earth Draw Saber Slash, the rest of his divine abilities had all reached Perfection at Seventh Grade, and the accumulation had been nearly depleted. Next, Lu Yun was preparing to fully dedicate himself to the cultivation of Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength.
When he left the cultivation room, Lu Yun’s aura changed again, revealing the disposition of the Heavenly Human Realm Seventh Grade.
This was his true realm, which many people were aware of; there was no need to hide it anymore.
The Heavenly Domain is a special secret realm within the Green Flame Palace’s Inner World, where all official disciples can cultivate, but it requires a large number of points to enter.
To spend one day in the Heavenly Domain, one needs to consume ten thousand points.
Even so, many disciples flocked to it, willing to expend a great number of points to enter the Heavenly Domain for cultivation.
Within the Heavenly Domain, the source power is exceptionally rich, making it an excellent place for cultivation.
Half a day later, Lu Yun arrived at the entrance to the Heavenly Domain.
At this time, many disciples from the seven veins had gathered there, and upon casually surveying the crowd, Lu Yun was surprised to find that not one of them was below the Sixth Grade of the Heavenly Human Realm.
However, Lu Yun soon came to terms with it as entering the Heavenly Domain required at least ten thousand points; if one’s cultivation level and strength were too low, it would be impossible to gather so many points.
The abundant source power of the Heavenly Domain could only accelerate the accumulation of the Power of the Cave Sky World, while comprehension of rules still depended on oneself.
In an inconspicuous corner, Lu Yun noticed an old man dressed in black, with a stooped back, sitting cross-legged without emitting any aura, as if he were a statue.
Without much thought, Lu Yun knew this person was responsible for guarding the Heavenly Domain.
Moreover, he faintly sensed that the elder’s strength was not weaker than that of the Heng Chong Dominator who had supervised their assessment in the past.
Time drifted by peacefully, and as the number of disciples at the entrance to the Heavenly Domain gradually increased, the old man in black slowly opened his eyes.
His turbid gaze swept over the gathered disciples before he nodded slightly, “One day in the Heavenly Domain consumes ten thousand points. When your points are insufficient to deduct, you will be automatically expelled from the Heavenly Domain. All right, go on in.”
Right after that, the disciples at the front approached the entrance, took out their identity tokens, and a beam of light burst from the token, falling into the void.
The void twisted and rippled, and the previously calm space, as if stimulated, revealed ripples, and then the disciples were enveloped in white light beams and vanished from the spot in the blink of an eye.
Lu Yun stepped forward, took out the Prime Origin Token, and felt the surrounding void distort as an invisible force tugged at his physical body, and his vision was entirely covered by white light beams.
This sensation did not last long, and when the white light dissipated, what appeared before his eyes was a completely new heaven and earth.
Source power, exceptionally rich source power.
When he was in the array hall of the Cold Lake Origin Vein, he thought the source power there was already quite rich.
But it wasn’t until this moment that Lu Yun was astonished to find that he had been ignorant of the greater world.
The source power within the Heavenly Domain was at least several times richer than in the array hall of the Cold Lake Origin Vein.
The moment he entered the Heavenly Domain, he felt as though he was surrounded by the extremely dense source power, unconsciously opening all of his pores greedily taking in the source power from heaven and earth, nourishing himself and bolstering the foundation of his Cave Heaven.
“So this is the Heavenly Domain…”
Not far from Lu Yun, a disciple from the Zheng Yang vein was utterly enchanted by the dense source power of this world, taking a long, deep breath.
Without a doubt, like Lu Yun, it was his first time entering the Heavenly Domain for cultivation.
The Unity Realm disciple of the Zheng Yang vein with him laughed, “The Heavenly Domain encloses over ten thousand large origin veins that constantly spew forth source power, and under the control of arrays, these origin veins will never run dry, continuously providing a steady flow of source power for the Green Fire Palace disciples to cultivate with.”
Over ten thousand origin veins!
Lu Yun’s heart couldn’t help but tremble.
To his knowledge, the Cold Lake Origin Vein was just a medium-sized vein, and each year it yielded millions of Origin Stones.
If the large origin veins in the Heavenly Domain could be exploited, then the number of Origin Stones harvested each year…
Lu Yun dared not continue that thought, fearing that if he did, he wouldn’t be able to control himself.
“Junior Brother Feng, time is short, let’s each find a place to cultivate!”
“Senior Brother Wei is right.”
Both turned into flying rainbows, soaring toward a mountain peak.
Lu Yun was not to be outdone, and he quickly climbed a nearby mountain peak, found a deserted spot, sat down cross-legged, and began his cultivation.
The Prime Origin Token he possessed contained over fifty thousand points, which would only allow him to cultivate within the Heavenly Domain for five days.
After five days, if the points were insufficient, he would be kicked out of the Heavenly Domain.
Therefore, he had to make use of the time and strive to awaken all the remaining Elephant Microparticles within these five days.
As the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength circulated, a golden glow flashed around Lu Yun, and a huge Divine Elephant Illusion appeared.
At the same time, the rich Source Force drifting in the heaven and earth seemed to be drawn in, rapidly converging towards Lu Yun, causing quite an anomaly.
“What kind of cultivation technique is that Tai Yuan pulse disciple practicing, that he can attract such a powerful Source Force?”
“Hehe, at the seventh level of the Heavenly Human Realm, to absorb so much Source Force at once, he’s not afraid of damaging his foundation!”
The other disciples who were cultivating nearby were both astonished and dismissive when they saw the anomaly caused by Lu Yun.
However, they all paid it no heed and soon brought their attention back to their own practices.
In the Heavenly Domain, time is the most precious, and nobody wants to spend time and energy on things other than cultivation.
As more and more Source Force gathered with the operation of the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength, the Elephant Microparticles continued to awaken at a pace almost as fast as when he had absorbed that mystical energy during his time on the first thousand steps of the Trial Heavenly Stair.
“At this rate, in less than five days, all one hundred and eight thousand Elephant Microparticles will be fully awakened, reaching the first level of the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength.”
Feeling the significant progress within himself, Lu Yun was very satisfied.
Time continued to pass, and in the blink of an eye, three days had gone by.
Only the last five hundred Elephant Microparticles were left unawakened, but the pace gradually began to slow down.
Firstly, the surrounding Source Force had been depleted too much by Lu Yun, and the Source Force spreading from the veins could not keep up with Lu Yun’s consumption, which caused the richness of the Source Force here to decrease.
Secondly, as he progressed, awakening each Elephant Microparticle required more time.
This was a bottleneck that all cultivation techniques and Divine Abilities would encounter during their final breakthrough.
Previously, the cultivation techniques Lu Yun practiced were elevated directly through Divine Power Value and energy without encountering such a bottleneck.
But the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength couldn’t be improved through Divine Abilities, relying on his own cultivation, so naturally, it would hit a bottleneck when approaching a breakthrough.
Upon realizing this, Lu Yun understood and did not pay too much attention to it.
He didn’t believe he couldn’t awaken those last five hundred Elephant Microparticles in the remaining two days.
After finding a new place with more concentrated Source Force, Lu Yun immersed himself in cultivation once again.
Sure enough, on the second day after Lu Yun changed his cultivation spot, all one hundred and eight thousand Microparticles within his body were awakened.
“Where the heart lies, there the intent moves, in the Hell Furnace within the body, refine everything, devour everything, and smelt the sun, moon, stars, all things in heaven and earth into one’s own essence, awakening the one hundred and eight thousand Microparticles inside the body…”
The Golden Divine Elephant emitted a powerful aura as Lu Yun followed the method of the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength’s cultivation, frantically absorbing the Source Force of heaven and earth.
A gigantic Furnace gradually took shape inside his body, with a purple-black aura swirling around it, containing a powerful devouring force.
Half a day later, the black Hell Furnace within Lu Yun’s body solidified, and the Source Force that entered it condensed into a golden liquid-like substance that flowed slightly, radiating light and emitting a strong energy scent.
Furthermore, after the formation of the Hell Furnace, its devouring power grew even stronger, spontaneously swallowing the surrounding Source Force of heaven and earth, with an efficiency more than triple that of before, extremely domineering.
As Source Force entered his body and then was smelted by the Furnace into pure energy essence, it dispersed into every part of his body, filling his skin, meridians, and bones.
Lu Yun could really feel that his physical body and physique were becoming stronger and more terrifying.
Just as Lu Yun was preparing to devour more Source Force, a massive repulsive force fell upon him.
“Ah… time’s up!”
