The journey home is long.
On the way, Jing Feiyang and others handed over the corpses of the eighth-level aliens to Nie Tian.
When they were scrapping the alien space rings, they found more than fifty soul crystals from the Xieming tribe's space rings.
Jing Feiyang thought about the soul crystal for a while, handed it to Nie Tian, and said, "All kinds of spiritual stones are easy to find, but soul crystals are hard to find. I can see that your current state is limited by the lack of condensation of the true soul. These soul crystals, refined in your hands, can advance your realm even further!"
Nie Tian declined, "Soul crystals are extremely precious to everyone. It's up to you to distribute these soul crystals."
He has long known that soul crystals are different from spiritual materials and spiritual stones of various attributes, and are rare in the world.
Spiritual materials and spiritual stones can be naturally bred by heaven and earth, and many realms are formed. Spiritual stones and spiritual materials with various attributes can be found for practice.
Soul crystals are different. This object is not naturally formed. Only the evil spirits and some people who are proficient in soul magic can refine the souls of living beings to form clear crystals.
Jing Feiyang and others also need to temper their souls, and soul crystals will also be of great help to them.
"How far we, including Tianmang Star Territory, Yuantian Star Territory, and Meteor Star Territory, can develop in the future depends on your strength. The stronger you are, the higher your status in the Broken Star Ancient Palace will be. The Star Territory you are attached to, under your command , the more benefits you can get from Broken Star Ancient Palace." Jing Feiyang smiled lightly and forced the soul crystal into his hand.
"Only when you are strong can we have greater reliance, so don't shirk it."
Quan Zixuan and Qu Mingde also tried to persuade him.
After they chose to rely on Nie Tian and surrendered, they understood the current situation clearly and knew that they and the sect were all tied to Nie Tian's chariot.
Only when Nie Tian becomes stronger and has a higher status, can their sect and the star field where they are located be able to develop better.
"Then... okay." Nie Tian finally took the soul crystal.
In fact, he also felt that his dantian spiritual sea, pure elixir, and three elixirs containing attributes were all condensed to the extreme.
The reason why there is no breakthrough in the middle stage of Xuanjing is that the true soul is not condensed enough.
As long as the true soul can keep up, he can take advantage of the situation and step from the middle stage of the profound realm to the late stage.
Soul crystal is indeed something he is in short supply at the moment.
"The eight alien space passages have been destroyed. No new aliens will arrive in a short period of time. And the ice phoenixes and giant dragons moving on the floating land are not our enemies..." Nie Tian squinted and said: "We are on the Floating Continent. There is no longer any threat from the outside. We can all spread out and take the enslaved tribesmen to the island leading to the cracked sky."
"We thought so too," Jing Feiyang said with a smile.
Everyone talked for a while and then dispersed on their way back.
They are going to that forest and other islands to find the surviving human enslavers and arrange for those people to embark on the right path of return.
Soon after, all the holy realms and virtual realms were separated from Nie Tian.
Nie Tian and Dong Li took the star boat and flew slowly to the island where the palace was located.
The starship was speeding, and the two of them were rarely alone. They also enjoyed this quiet and leisure time, and deliberately slowed down the speed of the starship.
"Give me a few soul crystals."
A few days later, after the two of them finished talking about their years of words and their respective experiences, Dong Li took the initiative to reach out and asked for the soul crystal, "I also have a hunch that I am about to break through to the middle stage of the profound realm. What is lacking is the condensation of the true soul. The soul crystal in your hand allows me to spend less time and complete the breakthrough in a short time."
Nie Tian smiled brilliantly and gave her a few soul crystals.
In the days that followed, the star boat continued to fly in the sky, and they used the soul crystal to refine the pure soul power, merge it into the true soul, and carry out their own cultivation.
Three months later.
The star boat had just left the floating land and re-entered the boundless black ocean. After using up the few soul crystals in Dong Li's hand, she did not ask for more from Nie Tian.
She was in a state of meditation for a long time, and her whole body was shrouded in dark spiritual power, like a dark god.
Waves of strange spiritual power fluctuations emanated from her body. After the dark spiritual power fluctuations formed, they seemed to be quietly swallowing up the light, but their range was limited.
When Nie Tian was condensing his true soul through the soul crystal, he occasionally looked at her and always felt that the aura on her body was getting closer and closer to that of the Black Black Turtle.
"The origin of the Black Mysterious Turtle is unknown. It is gifted by blood, but it is extremely strange and powerful. Dong Li seems to have benefited from its aura after getting it, and his own cultivation speed has also become much faster."
"That turtle is only a seventh-level bloodline and is heading towards the eighth level. When it breaks through to the eighth level, the benefits Dong Li can get from it will be even greater."
"Compared to Yin Yanan's Ice-Blooded Python, I always feel that the Black Black Turtle is more powerful."
“…”
Muttering to himself, Nie Tian gradually calmed down and continued his practice.
The condensation of the true soul is actually not difficult at the stage of the Mysterious Realm.
All you need is soul power!
In the past three months, most of the soul crystals in Nie Tian's hands had been consumed. The pure soul power that had been extracted was integrated into the true soul and refined into soul silk.
The soul threads are scattered in the real soul, like the muscles and veins of the human body, densely packed.
Every strand of soul thread carries Nie Tian's soul consciousness and is imprinted with memories.
The number of soul threads increases, and the blurred true soul gradually becomes clear.
During this period, Nie Tian occasionally separated his true soul from his body and released it, and he could feel that the clearer the true soul was, the better it could adapt to the external environment, and there was no longer that weak feeling that would dissipate when the wind blew.
It's half a month later again.
Dong Li woke up from her meditation and took the initiative to find a place to stay, officially beginning her breakthrough in realm.
Nie Tian naturally followed her, adjusted the star boat, accelerated the speed, found a bare island in the vast dark ocean, and anchored the star boat.
Dong Li left the star boat, took out many spiritual jade, and set up a simple spirit gathering formation. People were in it and started to achieve realm breakthroughs.
Now that he knew that there was no longer danger in Floating Land and that everyone's breakthrough in realm required their own efforts, Nie Tian ignored her and continued his practice.
Not long after, all the soul crystals in his hand were consumed.
But the realm barrier, the shackles that restrained him, he still couldn't touch.
"Dong Li only used ten soul crystals to condense her true soul and found the opportunity for a breakthrough. The number of soul crystals I consumed was several times that of hers, and the condensation of my true soul also lasted for a long time. Why? Still can’t find a breakthrough?”
He frowned and looked blankly at the sky at the corner of the island.
The sky is gray, no stars can be seen day and night, and there is no starlight.
The Shattering Star Technique he practices can absorb the weak star soul power from the stars and refine it into the soul.
But in Floating Continent, there are gray smoke and clouds all year round. The sun, moon and stars are invisible, and it is difficult to sense the brilliance and soul power of the stars in the outer world.
"Is it still because the true soul is not condensed enough?"
After thinking hard for a long time, Nie Tian couldn't figure out the reason and felt a little irritable.
"The power of the soul crystals I have absorbed during these days has been used to condense the true soul. The nine star souls have not benefited from the soul crystals. It could not be a breakthrough in my realm. Apart from the condensation of the true soul, it is Even those nine star souls need to be refined again?"
"If this is the case, I will need more soul crystals, or other ways of soul power!"
He suddenly remembered the blood core of the Flame Dragon Armor, which took him to a mysterious foreign place. The flame dragon bones there formed a large flame formation. When the Wraith Soul Bead was burned, the dross could be taken out, leaving only the purest soul power.
However, in the past, the Ghost Pearl had no weapon soul and no five evil souls.
If we really want to use that large formation to refine the Ghost Soul Bead, will the weapon soul in the bead and the five evil spirits be affected
For a moment, he was in a dilemma.
"call!"
He still took out the Wraith Bead. The Wraith Bead floating above his head shone with a green light.
During this period, as he fought everywhere and destroyed the space passages of the alien races, many alien races died.
Every time, when there is no human enslavement, he will release the Wraith Pearl and gather the souls of alien races.
Many remnant souls of foreign races were absorbed by the Ghost Pearl, and the five evil spirits also ate away many negative auras and strengthened themselves.
"Look inside the Wraith Pearl, see if there are any changes."
A ray of soul thought separated from the real soul, borrowed a little power from the star soul, blended it, and flew towards the bead.
He suddenly let out a light sigh.
