Chapter 299: Ascension Island, Divine Awareness Soars
Qin Tianxing, carrying dozens of strands of Xuanming spiritual energy and the Golden Crow secret technique, once again detoured to the outskirts of the Fiery Domain and came in front of Chen An.
"Brother Chen, this is what we got this time." Qin Tianxing's voice was a little tired, but it couldn't hide the joy in his heart.
Chen An took the jade bottle and saw the seventy strands of Xuanming spiritual energy suspended in the jade bottle. He couldn't help but look surprised: "Old guy Jin Lieyang is quite generous. He actually gave so much."
Qin Tianxing heard this and raised his lips slightly: "No, except for the twenty strands which are the reward for killing two dark cultivators, the rest are what I insisted on getting."
After listening carefully to what Qin Tianxing said, Chen An was speechless: "Is this guy really not afraid of revenge from the Golden Crow Clan?"
Although doing so would anger the Jinwu clan, since the things were already coming, there was no need to return them.
After thinking for a while, Chen An took out twenty strands of spiritual energy and gave them to Qin Tianxing as compensation for his hard work in the past few trips.
Qin Tianxing accepted the Xuanming spiritual energy with a smile, and then the two began to deal with the problems in the Chiyan Realm.
Chen An took out the evil spirit bottle and activated his magic power. The mouth of the bottle opened and streams of evil and foul air were sucked into the bottle.
As the foul air gradually decreased, it didn't take long for the evil air in the Fiery Domain to return to its previous state. The few remaining ones were no longer a danger to the Sun City.
With the means of the Jinwu clan and other forces, it is only a matter of time before they are completely driven out.
After leaving the Blazing Realm, the two came to the Ghost Realm, and then returned to the Tianyuan Continent through the space channel.
Looking at the vast sea in front of him, Qin Tianxing suggested: "Now that you have broken through to the Mahayana stage, it is not suitable for you to return to Feiyun City. Why don't you follow me to Tianyuan Island? It is the place with the best cultivation environment for the entire human race. It is enough for you and me to cultivate there."
Tianyuan Island is a spiritual island in the eastern part of Tianyuan Continent, where Qin Tianxing’s cave is located.
Looking at the entire Tianyuan Continent, only the environment of this island can meet the cultivation needs of Mahayana cultivators.
Chen An declined his offer: "Don't bother Brother Qin. I think the South China Sea is good enough."
Qin Tianxing thought for a moment, and then said, "There is a large island in the South China Sea. It was where I lived when I was young. If you are interested, you can practice there."
When Chen An heard this, he was moved and agreed.
According to what Qin Tianxing said, they came to a small island in the South China Sea.
This island is called Xuanling Island. Although it is not big, it is a good place for cultivation.
The island is full of spiritual energy, with naturally formed spiritual veins surrounding it, and the air is filled with the faint fragrance of spiritual herbs.
Various rare spiritual plants grow on the island. They thrive on this land and absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
There is a small hill in the center of the island, and at the foot of the hill there is a crystal clear lake. The lake water is emerald green, like a piece of emerald inlaid in the earth.
The lakeside is full of various magical herbs, some of which are even ten thousand years old and have extraordinary medicinal effects.
The area of the island is equivalent to a medium-sized state in Tianyuan Continent, with a radius of tens of thousands of miles. Although it is not large, it is wide enough for practitioners.
There are also some simple buildings on the island, all of which were built by Qin Tianxing himself when he was young. Although they are a bit old, they are still well preserved.
Chen An looked around and nodded with satisfaction: "This is indeed a good place."
Qin Tianxing smiled and said, "Since Brother Chen likes it, that's good."
After Qin Tianxing left, Chen An stood alone on the island, looking at the beautiful scenery around him, and a sense of tranquility surged in his heart.
This island is full of spiritual energy and is obviously an excellent place for cultivation.
Chen An looked around and found that there was not much that needed to be sorted out, except that the name of the island needed to be renamed.
Chen An used his magic power and pointed his sword at a high peak. In an instant, the sword flashed, and a sharp sword energy cut through the sky, cutting off a neat hundred-foot-tall boulder from the peak.
He placed the boulder at the entrance of the island, and after pondering for a moment, he swung his sword and carved three powerful characters on the stone.
Ascension Island!
Chen An looked at these three words and nodded with satisfaction. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this name suited his taste.
After inspecting the Shengxian Island, Chen An took out the Kuxiu Mountain from the Qiankun Pot and placed it in an open area on the island, preparing to continue his practice here.
He turned and walked into the North Mountain. Seeing this, the black-haired leopard followed closely behind him and asked curiously, "Master, where is this?"
Chen An smiled slightly and replied: "This is Shengxian Island!"
The black-haired beast was stunned. He looked around at the unfamiliar environment, his eyes flickering with curiosity: "Where is it? Where can I ascend to immortality?"
Chen An laughed and entered the Beishan Cave Mansion. He spent some time adjusting his condition and recovering to his peak.
Afterwards, he began to study the Golden Crow Clan's Great Sun Furnace, intending to integrate this secret technique into the Soul Fusion Technique.
After some research, Chen An discovered that the efficiency of the Great Sun Furnace in refining the Nether Qi was slightly insufficient, far inferior to the Nether Soul Fusion Technique, but it was much more efficient in refining spiritual energy.
However, this method is extremely dependent on the Sun God Fire, and no matter which method is used, it is inseparable from this spiritual fire.
If it were someone else, they might be helpless.
But for Chen An, this is not a problem, because the Yin-Yang Burning Sky Fire he possesses is derived from the true fire of the sun, and then fused with the Yin Fire. It can fully meet this need.
Chen An then picked out the part of the Great Sun Furnace that refined spiritual energy, and spent a lot of effort to integrate it with the Soul Fusion Technique into a new practice.
The new technique not only retained the original advantages of the Soul Fusion Technique, but also had a significant improvement in refining spiritual energy, which made Chen An very satisfied.
Although the content of the two parts is very different in style and style, the efficiency has been greatly improved, so it is not a big deal.
In the following days, Chen An began to organize the storage bracelets he obtained from several kills of Ming Xiu.
He carefully selected and finally gathered together the mysterious treasures containing the three laws of wood, water and fire, and integrated them all into the Jinguan Tuji Mountain, making the treasure complete with all five elements, and its power leapt to a higher level again.
Even compared with ordinary Xuantian treasures, it is much better and can be regarded as his new killer weapon.
After doing all this, Chen An picked up the Ningyuan Jue and Taixu Shennian Shu, thought for a while, and then put away the Ningyuan Jue temporarily.
Chen An sat cross-legged in the cave, closed his eyes, and immersed his mind in his martial arts.
Following the guidance of Taixu's Divine Mind Technique, he began to guide the flow of spiritual energy in his body, while trying to combine his consciousness with magic power to explore the depths of his soul.
As time went by, Chen An felt that his consciousness became clearer and clearer, as if he had an unprecedented sharpness.
He began to sense a faint light deep in his soul, which was the location of the source of his soul.
The soul source is the source of spiritual power and is also the key for practitioners to unlock higher levels of power.
Chen An concentrated all his mind on the soul source, slowly guiding his magic power to converge towards the soul source.
As the vast magical power poured in, the soul source gradually emitted a more dazzling light.
Chen An could feel that the range of his perception was constantly expanding, and even the scenery on the edge of Shengxian Island that reached the limit of his spiritual sense was becoming clearer, and he could also perceive the tiny fluctuations in the air.
As time went by, the light of the soul source became brighter and brighter, and finally it seemed to be ignited. Chen An's consciousness seemed to be pulled by a powerful force, and instantly broke through some kind of restraints and entered a new realm.
Chen An slowly opened his eyes, and a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes: "Soul awakening, it's done!" At this moment, Chen An could clearly feel that his spiritual power had become much stronger, and both his perception of the outside world and his control over himself had made a qualitative leap.
He stood up, walked out of the cave, and looked at the distant sky. The entire Shengxian Island was within the range of his spiritual consciousness.
Somewhere on the island, a black-haired horse was galloping on its horse, passing through the mountains and forests, and galloping on the blue waves, looking for something.
Outside Shengxian Island, Jin Ling, Chen Fengshuo, Chen Qing, Wang Ming and Chen Shuang stood in front of a stone tablet.
The stone tablet is a hundred feet high, with three powerful characters "Shengxian Island" engraved on it, which are particularly eye-catching under the sunlight.
Jin Ling looked up at the three big characters and exclaimed, "Shengxian Island! So impressive!"
There was a glimmer of curiosity in his eyes, as if he was thinking about the meaning behind the name.
Chen Qing touched his chin and thought: "Ascend to immortality? Isn't that something that only Mahayana cultivators would consider? Could it be..."
He didn't continue speaking, but there was a sense of disbelief in his words.
Chen Fengshuo smiled slightly and said, "That's right. I have met Chen An twice before. Every time I met him, I felt that his aura was like the abyss, as if he could kill me with a snap of his fingers. I have also seen a few combined cultivators, but their strength is not even a tenth of his!"
There was awe in his words, and he was obviously shocked by Chen An's strength.
The meaning of this statement is self-evident. If the fusion is not even one percent, then that means he is a Mahayana cultivator!
When they heard this, they were shocked. They never expected that in just a few years, Chen An had already reached that legendary realm!
When Wang Ming heard this, his eyes flickered, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Dongfuzhong.
Chen An's consciousness moved slightly, and he was surprised after realizing the presence of five people. When did Jin Ling get together with Chen Fengshuo and the others?
He swept his spiritual sense over, then waved his hand lightly, and the five people who were waiting outside the island were instantly transferred into the cave.
Chen An glanced at the surprised faces of the five people, then looked at Jin Ling and said with a smile: "I have already made enemies with the Jinwu tribe. Aren't you afraid of being blamed by the tribe for coming to me?"
After being stunned for a while, Jin Ling looked up and saw Chen An, then he came back to his senses. He smiled and said, "That's not the case. I am a Hui people. I came back to take a look when I passed by here. Even if the tribe knew, they wouldn't say anything."
At this moment, a dog barked. Black-haired Xie and Golden-wing looked at each other, with mist swirling in their eyes: "Bald-haired bird!"
"Long time no see, why are you still like this?"
Jin Ling shook the golden armor on his body, showing off a bit. A sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Then he punched the black-haired beast while the other party was not paying attention, knocking it away and mockingly said, "Your strength remains the same, you are vulnerable."
The black-haired beast was immediately furious after being hit, and roared, "How dare you sneak attack me!"
Before he could finish his words, the two of them started fighting.
Chen An frowned slightly and shouted, "Go out and fight!"
Immediately, he waved his sleeves, and a gentle force swept the two of them up and sent them out of the cave.
After the two left, Chen An turned to look at the others and asked them why they came here.
Chen Fengshuo spoke first: "Now that the barbarians are under my control, I still need your instructions on how to deal with them in the future."
Chen An smiled slightly and said, "You are now the Great Barbarian King of the Barbarians. You can decide how to proceed. However, I estimate that the upper limit of the development of the Barbarians is not as good as that of the Humans. It is difficult for them to reach the Mahayana realm. As long as the Humans continue to reach the Mahayana realm, the Barbarians will not be a concern."
This is not an exaggeration. You must know that over the years, the barbarians have never produced a Mahayana cultivator. Even the only one who has achieved a fusion was the incarnation of the Demon God and Ghost Emperor. It is obvious that his cultivation potential is not as good as that of humans.
Now that Chen Fengshuo is in control of the barbarians, the two tribes can cooperate more and gather a force far greater than that of one tribe alone.
Chen Qing and Chen Shuang were slightly moved when they heard this. Then Chen Qing stepped forward and said, "You have been away from Feiyun City for quite some time. You may not know that the Chen family is now thriving and its strength has long surpassed that of the City Lord's Mansion."
"It is a restriction to continue staying in Feiyun City. We plan to move the Chen family to Jianghuang City for better development."
Chen An nodded and said, "You can decide the affairs of the Chen family on your own in the future. Unless it is a matter of life and death, you don't need to ask me."
His cultivation has already reached Mahayana, and the next step is to practice hard and prepare for the calamity of ascension.
If I were to ask more about family affairs, it would take up a lot of my energy.
Many cultivators in the clan are already able to take charge on their own and do not need his involvement.
Then, Chen An's gaze fell on Wang Ming. He was quite surprised to see that his cultivation had actually advanced to the Void Refinement Stage.
He smiled and said, "Your cultivation is progressing well. With your aptitude, you will surely achieve Mahayana in the future!"
When everyone heard this, they began to breathe rapidly and looked at Wang Ming with envy.
Wang Ming was also very excited and could hardly hide his inner joy.
"Are you willing to stay on the island and practice?"
Wang Ming looked ecstatic, bowed his hands, and said respectfully: "Junior is willing to stay!"
Chen An smiled slightly and said to Chen Qing and Chen Shuang: "Go back and pass the message that any combined cultivators in the clan can come to the island to practice in the future."
After everything was explained, Chen An passed on the various skills he had acquired and sorted out over the years to Chen Qing, and asked him to teach the younger generation of the clan well.
Afterwards, Chen An waved his hand and sent them out of the cave.
"You can go too. Just choose a place on the island to open a cave."
"Yes, junior, please resign!"
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, fifty years have passed.
Chen An secluded himself in the depths of Shengxian Island, practicing the Taixu Divine Mind Technique.
Relying on his profound spiritual foundation, he has successfully broken through the first level and is stepping into the threshold of the second level.
At the same time, the practice of Ning Yuan Jue also progressed smoothly, which doubled his magic power.
The Demon God has cultivated to the pinnacle of the second level. It will only take a short time for him to advance to the third level, and then his strength will leap forward again.
Just as Chen An was practicing without distraction, a burst of rapid dog barking broke the silence.
Chen An opened his eyes and saw the black-haired beast appear outside the cave with a nervous look on its face.
"Why are you so flustered?" Chen An asked.
"Master, Wang Ming wants to see you. He said it's an important matter." The black-haired monster replied.
Chen An was slightly surprised, and immediately ordered Heimaohu: "Let him in."
Not long after, Wang Ming hurriedly walked into the cave with a serious look on his face: "Senior, something bad has happened. When I was out a month ago, I found that a large number of underworld troops had emerged from the Sea of Riot and were heading straight for the Tianyuan Continent!"
