第一千九百五十五章 双层星海

,"Congratulations to Senior for advancing to the Profound Void Realm."

Thousands of disciples from Hundred Grass Sect fell to their knees in celebration. Lin Xuan had done much for his sect, but even if he didn't mention it, just reaching the Profound Void Realm was enough to make them look up to him.

Among the cultivators present, especially those who joined later, most were still at the Condensation Core or Foundation Establishment stage. Even if they hadn't heard of the Profound Void Realm, seeing a Senior Immortal would still command their utmost respect.

Their expressions now carried a mix of admiration and surprise as they looked at Lin Xuan.

"Such formalities are unnecessary."

Lin Xuan waved his hand. He knew that these disciples were likely hoping for some favor from him, having seen the benefits high-ranking cultivators could offer. As he wasn't stingy, he swept his sleeve to reveal a large number of treasures.

Mostly they were spirit artifacts and magical treasures—things he considered trivial and would not miss if discarded. But to low-ranking cultivators, these were all sought-after treasures. The disciples gratefully accepted the gifts, filled with gratitude.

There was nothing else to mention. The disciples prepared a sumptuous feast of mountain delicacies and fine wines. Lin Xuan, who had been diligently cultivating for two hundred years, relished the meal, eating heartily with his disciples.

The feast continued until late into the night before Lin Xuan took his leave.

Returning to his old den, he found it in ruins. The Hundred Flower Valley was now a wasteland. Lin Xuan sighed, remembering that this den had been destroyed during his晋级.

But there was no need for concern; the area around it remained intact. He waved his sleeve and opened up a new den, then set up an array of flags before entering.

Although he had drunk much wine at today's celebration, Lin Xuan felt slightly dizzy. But after a brief adjustment, he regained his composure—cultivators were different from ordinary people.

Thinking about the晋级, it was too mysterious. What exactly happened? As the party involved, Lin Xuan wasn't entirely clear on what transpired between the Five Dragon Pendant and the Blue Star Sea.

He first sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and used Inner Vision to examine himself.

His body seemed more resilient than before, though not yet as indestructible as the legendary Golden Body. But it was far beyond that of a regular Profound Void Realm beastman.

The Four Great Elements Lightning Fire Tribulation had been broken by the Five Dragon Pendant, but he still endured for some time. The tribulation was unbearable at first, but now he saw its benefits.

"Indeed, as expected. This tribulation will greatly enhance my Essence Refinement." Lin Xuan opened his eyes and muttered to himself, then calmed down to continue probing his body.

In the Dantian Sea, the two infant souls sat facing each other. The beastheart hovered above them. Both infants were stronger than before; after advancing to Profound Void Realm, the元婴 was now completely stable, even for teleportation.

The changes in the beastheart were even more dramatic. It had turned into a multicolored hue representing the five elements: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Below the sea of energy, it seemed more like an ocean than a lake, with waves surging on its surface. But when Lin Xuan willed it, the entire ocean turned green without any signs.

Different colors represented different attributes.

Previously, he could freely command the five elements, but now, his control was even more refined.

Advancing to Profound Void Realm had indeed brought significant benefits. His mana was not only greater in quantity but also purer than before.

His divine awareness had greatly improved as well, surpassing that of a late-stage Profound Void Realm cultivator. In other words, while he couldn't claim the same strength, his divine awareness alone made him the top cultivator in the Eastern Sea.

But Lin Xuan was more interested in the relationship between the Five Dragon Pendant and the Blue Star Sea.

He extended his divine sense into the depths of his Dantian Sea.

Soon, countless blue light points appeared before him, floating slowly like a starry sea. However, at the center, there was now something new: the Five Dragon Pendant.

His two most mysterious treasures had come together, indicating they were related.

Lin Xuan tried to control the Five Dragon Pendant but found no effect. This was strange; it seemed to be in a dormant state.

"Wait."

He noticed an increase in silver light points in the Blue Star Sea, all concentrated around the Five Dragon Pendant.

Could this mean...

Lin Xuan calmed down and patiently observed without doing anything else.

Time passed quickly. After half a day, Lin Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, which had been tightly closed for so long.

His efforts paid off. After observing for some time, he finally noticed something.

The Five Dragon Pendant was indeed related to the Blue Star Sea. Since practicing the Lesser Heavenly Law Form, the Blue Star Sea had undergone certain changes, with some light points turning silver.

He wasn't sure why, but this was a good thing because the purification ability of the silver light points far exceeded that of the blue ones.

As his cultivation improved, the difficulty in refining elixirs also increased. The blue light points could no longer meet his needs.

However, cultivating Lesser Heavenly Law Form only slowly increased the number of silver light points, which was frustrating!

Lin Xuan was deeply troubled by this and even doubted whether he would face issues with elixir refinement after advancing to Profound Void Realm.

But the silver light points were too precious. He couldn't find a solution without Mo'er's help. He needed someone to discuss it with, but that wasn't possible now.

Fortunately, everything was in place. The joy in Lin Xuan's heart was evident.

However, he wasn't satisfied. Based on his speculation, the Five Dragon Pendant could promote the Blue Star Sea's changes, but their relationship was more complex than just that. He had only uncovered a small part of it.

Closing his eyes again, Lin Xuan used Inner Vision once more.

Compared to half a month ago, the number of silver light points had increased by several hundred. The increase in speed was significant; compared to before, it was like comparing heaven and earth. It was remarkable.

Now there were about seven or eight thousand silver light points, all revolving around the Five Dragon Pendant, forming a small cycle.

From afar, it looked as if his body now contained two star seas: one blue star sea, vast and deep like an ocean after years of cultivation; and another, smaller but more mysterious, centered on the Five Dragon Pendant.

Each rotation gradually turned the blue light points into silver. After 365 cycles, a single blue light point would fully transform into silver, representing a year's worth of cycles. On average, it took only ten days to complete one cycle.

Even with his divine sense, he couldn't connect with the Five Dragon Pendant. Lin Xuan sighed; it seemed he needed more time to figure out anything else.

But he wasn't anxious. He had plenty of time.

Patience was key. For now, he focused on stabilizing his realm after just advancing.

This couldn't be delayed; otherwise, his realm might drop again, which would be a waste.

So Lin Xuan sat cross-legged and began meditating.

The Shangguan sisters visited the Hundred Flower Valley later, seeing their destroyed den restored. They were shocked. Lin Xuan sent a voice transmission from his second元婴 to briefly explain and asked them to return.

Of course, they obeyed without hesitation. They realized how impulsive they had been, coming just because of their longing for him, forgetting that he needed time to stabilize his realm.

Their admiration for the sisters was genuine when it came to restoring the valley with magic.
