The sea of fog is vast.
Ice and thunder shattered the ground. In a spacious cave inside the glacier, Pang Jian frowned and looked at the thunder pool.
The material of the silver-white pool is like crystal jade, or like a mysterious silver metal, releasing a faint halo on the ice.
There are thunder seals on the walls and bottom of the pool, presented in the form of clusters of twisting lightning.
This is the secret of the great Dao that Lei Gong comprehended.
As the first powerful deity in the heavens and myriad worlds to successfully be promoted to the God of Thunder, he intended to use the God of Thunder that he created to rule over all the strongest people on this avenue in all realms.
If he hadn't died, the God of Thunder would still exist.
The Beast God Leimeng, an ancient being like a lion and a tiger wandering in the depths of the strange fog, and even... the old thunder dragon in the purgatory world.
They may all be controlled by the God of Thunder, and be enslaved by the first God of Thunder in all the worlds - Lei Gong, with the authority of the Thunder Road he wields, and become his subordinates.
Although Lei Gong has fallen, his reputation still spreads throughout the heavens and echoes in the endless galaxy.
"The rank of Thunder God among the gods must be much higher than that of Ice Demon."
Pang Jian's eyes showed determination.
He was in peak condition, his spiritual sea was full, the ice pool and the fire pool were full of power, two moons, one round and one crescent, were shining brightly, the sun above the spiritual sea was blazing and dazzling, and the stars were shining brightly.
—This is the result of his recent accumulation.
“It’s time.”
As soon as his mind was focused, he landed above the silver-white lightning pool and used all his strength to practice the "Hutian Yangqi Jue."
The imagined Dantian spiritual sea suddenly turned into a giant spiritual pot standing in the depths of chaos and nothingness, as if swallowing up the primordial Mongolian energy.
The upper end of this pot seemed to be connected to his sea of consciousness, while the lower end seemed to connect to the underworld and the unknown.
The central waist is in the vast and boundless void.
"receive!"
In the world outside of his body, the golden soul appeared to be only a hundred feet tall. When it sank from the sea of consciousness to the position of the "Spirit Pot", it became like an ancient god who created the world.
His golden soul expanded and grew infinitely, filling the mysterious and strange land he had visualized. He grasped the body of the pot with both hands and exerted tremendous force!
“Wow!”
A tremendous suction force suddenly emerged from the Hukou, like an abyss swallowing up the sky, and it attracted the thunder pool that had long been locked by his soul.
In his world in the pot, the deep sea that was evolved from spiritual power was drying up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The light of the stars, the moon, and the sun suddenly dimmed, and the boiling flames in the fire pool quietly went out.
Only the incredibly large ice pool located deep in the spiritual sea is still filled with the incomparably powerful extreme cold force.
The thunder pool, which was not very grand in the outside world, suddenly enlarged dozens of times in the world in the pot that Pang Jian imagined!
As if pulling a small world, he pulled the thunder pool here and placed it in the thunder vortex.
The tiny thunder vortex, like a cloud cluster the size of a palm, is forced to endure a thunder pool that is dozens of times larger than itself.
As a result, the thunder vortex was forced by the thunder pool to fall from mid-air into the spiritual sea.
“Boom!”
In addition to the Fire Pond and the Ice Pond, there is another huge and strange pond in the vast spiritual sea.
“Hoohoo!”
The small thunder vortex was filled with power, then quickly diluted and released outward, condensing into a relatively weaker huge thunder vortex.
The thunder vortex does not rotate, it just covers the thunder pool, slightly isolating it from the spiritual sea.
His mind changed, and Pang Jian's soul sank from his sea of consciousness and fell from the mouth of the pot into the world inside the pot, landing above the thunder pool that he had collected into his spiritual sea.
Soul, try to sit cross-legged in the thunder pool.
The soul body refined and tempered by spiritual consciousness exploded in his mind as soon as it touched the Dao Seal in the pool.
He saw streaks of thunder and lightning wandering in the vast and boundless void.
A cluster of thunder seals was perceived by his soul, and immediately revealed a scene of eternal wonder that was imprinted.
"Boom! Boom!"
The strange, vibrant spheres were submerged in the thunder and lightning. The lightning emitted a violent rhythm of world destruction, completely enveloping the spheres.
After a long time, the thunder and lightning twisted away, and the sphere turned black.
All living beings inside were exterminated.
This seemed to be the great path to destruction that Lei Gong had realized, or it might be a scene he had personally seen, which was eternally preserved in the Dao Seal and needed to be opened by the soul to be comprehended.
"The sphere is similar to the Winter Planet, and is completely different from the blocky continents of Purgatory."
"It is a star of life like the sun and the moon, and it also has people from other regions living on it."
"One day, some stars were targeted by the doomsday thunderbolts wandering in the vast galaxy, causing them to turn into scorched earth and billions of living creatures to become extinct in an instant."
"Outside the sky, in the endless vast galaxy, is there such a terrifying thunder?"
"Thunder God, was promoted to the first Thunder God by visualizing and realizing the great way of destruction contained in these thunders?"
Pang Jian's soul was shocked.
Just touching the tip of the iceberg and seeing the scene depicted by a cluster of thunder seals, he felt a deep awe for the vast starry sky outside Purgatory.
Those stars, similar to the entire continent of Purgatory, are located in a galaxy.
The billions of lives living in it may also be able to see the twisting thunder and lightning coming, but they are powerless to resist and do not know how to avoid it.
"Outside of Purgatory, there are more terrifying and dangerous things. The twisting world-destroying thunder may just be a kind of mighty power from heaven. It is not right for those with insufficient realm cultivation and alien races whose bloodline is not strong enough!"
"Under that kind of divine might, even true gods, or even gods from other realms, may not be able to remain unscathed!"
“How terrible!”
The cold sweat on Pang Jian's forehead turned into ice crystals.
Then, he suddenly felt the weakness of his spiritual power and an intense hunger.
"Hungry… "
The golden soul escaped from the thunder pool with a "swoosh" and fell into the sea of consciousness. It actually absorbed nutrients from his entire body to restore its soul power.
He felt silently and observed carefully.
Soon, he was surprised to find that this soul condensed with divine consciousness absorbed the most from the body's life vitality, including the vitality of flesh and blood and the life essence in the eight leaves.
On the contrary, his spiritual power was not drained too much, and it did not seem to be that beneficial to the recovery of his special soul.
"The vitality of flesh and blood, the vitality of life..."
Pang Jian seemed to be thinking about something.
He slowly realized that his soul was different from those of other human cultivators, but was like the alien gods believed in by foreign races.
The true bodies of the alien gods from other realms are all huge bodies that are powerful enough to move mountains and seas, and what drives their bodies is the extremely vigorous power of flesh and blood.
They do not have the Dantian and spiritual sea of humans, so naturally they extract strength from their flesh and blood bodies to restore their souls and spiritual power.
"For people like me, Qi Qingsong, Zhou Qingchen, and Dong Tianze, there is a lot of divinity hidden in our souls. We must focus on building our flesh and blood bodies, and we must not neglect the tempering of our bodies!"
He immediately communicated with several other people.
A bee insect fell into the broken city of Thunder Clan where several people were, and expressed his insights and discoveries.
"I feel it too!"
Zhou Qingchen was the first to respond, and said in a deep voice: "When I used the Red Mountain Secret Technique to refine my soul, my soul was always weak and powerless. After my soul power was consumed, I found that my body gradually became weak."
"It seems that it is by extracting the vitality of flesh and blood that the soul's spiritual power can be replenished."
“This is different from the methods previously documented.”
Zhou Qingchen took out a tranquilizing pill and said, "This thing doesn't work anymore. It seems that Dong Tianze's soul-nourishing pill can still play a role."
"Only when the flesh and blood are strong can the spirit be strong, thus benefiting the soul." Qi Qingsong nodded gently and said, "If that's the case, then from today on, I will also study and learn the art of body refining."
Wu Yuan and Zhao Yuanqi both looked thoughtful upon hearing this.
Secretly, they were also wondering if there were any techniques related to body tempering within their own sect.
Dong Tianze didn't say anything. He had already used the power of the Phoenix Seal to cleanse his muscles and bones over and over again.
"The opening of Purgatory, the gathering of the gazes of the gods from the outer realms, and the appearance of many puppets have put us in a special era." Zhuang Yuyan pondered and said, "The one who developed the cultivation system of the human race created the secret technique of refining the soul, perhaps originally to absorb the divinity of the gods."
"It's because Purgatory is not open for long, and practitioners in many eras cannot obtain divinity, so the cultivation system is simplified."
"The soul forged by the divine consciousness without divinity can be slowly restored through spiritual power, pills, and sleep. The requirements for flesh and blood are not high."
"So, the body-refining technique that was popular before has gradually become out of the mainstream."
"I feel..."
Zhuang Yuyan's eyes lit up slightly, and she said, "Every time the body refining technique begins to prevail in Purgatory, Purgatory opens up, and the gods from the outside world descend in the form of puppets."
"What you said is very likely true." Wu Yuan nodded slightly.
"Well, our Sword Tower and their Demon Sect have always kept the secret techniques of physical training." Qi Qingsong was shocked and said, "The Creation Sect and many other similar sects have disappeared in the long river of history. Their techniques have been completely preserved by all parties, but they have not been passed on to their disciples."
"Because it wasn't the right time before?" Zhou Qingchen asked.
"That must be it!"
"Now, starting with us, any new cultivator who uses divinity to condense his soul should be required to practice the art of tempering the body!"
"The creator of the human race's cultivation system had long ago decided to hunt down alien god puppets to obtain divinity and condense the soul."
"This special cultivation system is clearly about stepping on the gods to ascend to the highest position and hunting down gods to pursue the path of supreme power."
"No wonder the gods regard the Purgatory Human Race as aliens and targets that must be eliminated."
"… "
Everyone was talking and discussing it intensely.
In the cave.
With the help of the flesh and blood of exotic beasts from the outside world, Pang Jian replenished his energy and blood, and directly began to impact the third level of "Great Creation Holy Body" - the Essence and Blood Realm.
Rich qi, blood, and energy gathered in the "Divine Pool of Creation", wrapped in a ball of Pang Jian's own blood that was pulled in.
This ball of blood is like a blood ball, surrounded by pure qi and blood essence. It is washed and refined over and over again, smelting and removing the dregs in the blood, and then giving it a hundred times the energy of flesh and blood.
It feels like tempering a star of flesh and blood.
