The Great Ruler: Starting from the Lower Plane

Chapter 93 Assimilation of Spiritual Power

"I didn't expect you to come from a lower plane. No wonder you don't know about the Fallen Sword Continent..."

The old man's voice was filled with amazement as he tried to calm the shock in his heart.

It's unimaginable that someone at the Spirit Realm could encounter a super strong expert from a lower plane.

"Alright, it's all over."

Ye Feng didn't say anything more, asked any more questions, got up and pushed open the door to leave.

It's difficult to obtain much useful information from someone at the Spirit Realm. Once he completes the assimilation of spiritual energy, he can then go to larger places to explore and truly understand this world.

Although his perception was not as strong as it was on the Sword Continent due to the rules of heaven and earth after arriving in this vast world, he could still easily reach a radius of a thousand miles.

Therefore, once his strength is restored, he will be quite free. He can act according to his senses in this area without needing anyone to guide him.

Right now, the priority is to complete the assimilation of spiritual energy and switch to cultivating spiritual energy.

"Farewell, Your Majesty..."

The old man followed closely behind Ye Feng, his voice extremely respectful.

"Shi Tou is a good kid. You should supervise his cultivation carefully; it might bring him some benefits in the future."

Ye Feng glanced at the young man waiting quietly at the door, smiled slightly, then turned his gaze to the old man and gave him a word of advice.

He was not one to forget kindness; Stone's father had brought him back from the wilderness while he was unconscious, and he would naturally repay him in the future.

Upon hearing this, the old man's eyes flashed with surprise, and he quickly bowed in response.

"It is a great blessing for Shi Tou to be valued by adults. I will do my best to teach him, but my strength is too weak to teach him much."

Although Stone was still confused, he knew that the person treated with such respect by his village chief grandfather must be extraordinary. Coupled with the words about supervising cultivation, he vaguely understood that he might have encountered an opportunity. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

"Thank you, brother... thank you, sir!"

Ye Feng smiled gently, raised his hand, and a gentle force lifted the stone.

"Cultivation depends on oneself. If fate allows, we will meet again in the future."

"Also, please give my thanks to your father."

After saying that, Ye Feng took to the air and headed towards the deep mountains outside Chenjia Village.

"Coming from a lower plane, I wonder just how powerful this person is..."

The old man stared blankly in the direction where Ye Feng had disappeared, remaining silent for a long time.

"Grandpa Village Chief, can I become as strong as this adult...?"

Looking at the sky where Ye Feng had left, Stone's eyes were filled with longing.

"Only those at the Divine Soul Realm can barely walk in the air, and this is already a top-tier expert in our Tianlan County. This lord's strength will only be stronger."

"He's so young, he doesn't look that old. For you to reach what he's achieved, that's incredibly difficult..."

……

After leaving Chenjia Village, Ye Feng did not go too far. Instead, he found a secluded place in a deep mountain a hundred miles away and built a simple cave dwelling.

On a black rock, Ye Feng sat cross-legged quietly, took a deep breath, and looked inward at himself.

At this moment, within his dantian, the sword soul was dim and lifeless, and the sword essence was almost exhausted. The dark golden flame lotus brought from the immortal volcano of the Sword Continent was floating in a corner of his dantian, and the seven-colored light imprint on it was also quite weak.

"Next comes the most crucial step: the assimilation of spiritual energy..."

Ye Feng's expression was solemn, and his mind was tense.

When people from lower planes come to the Great Thousand World and wish to continue their cultivation, they must assimilate the energy they cultivate into spiritual power.

This step is crucial and extremely dangerous.

However, during the peak of one's life, when the body is full of energy, the conflict between the old and new energies during the assimilation process will be extremely intense. If one is not careful, the meridians will be damaged and the body will be seriously injured.

However, his sword energy is now almost depleted, which is the best time for spiritual energy to be transformed.

With the body feeling empty and the old sword energy nearly exhausted, it is the perfect time to receive new spiritual energy.

"Using the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replace the original sword energy within the body, nourishing the meridians and flesh, transforming the sword soul into the divine soul, and turning the dantian into the supreme sea of ​​energy, this assimilation of spiritual power should be like this..."

Ye Feng's mind raced as he determined the general direction.

Spiritual energy assimilation doesn't involve a fixed transformation process in this vast world. Different lower planes have different rules of heaven and earth, so the cultivation energy of each person from a lower plane is also different.

Different worlds have different systems, so there is little experience from predecessors to draw upon for achieving this spiritual assimilation; one can only rely on oneself.

Fortunately, he was not completely ignorant of the world and would not resist the disappearance of the sword energy within his body. Although it was the source of his power, it was also a hindrance to his entry into this world.

This alone puts them ahead of most people from lower planes, because under normal circumstances, no one would allow the power they have cultivated for many years to disappear.

"Let's begin by sensing spiritual energy and absorbing it into our bodies..."

Once Ye Feng made up his mind, he immediately immersed himself in the surrounding world.

The spiritual energy of the vast world is not as sharp as the sword energy of the Sword Continent; it is only gentle and boundless.

"Um…"

With a focused mind, Ye Feng sensed the scattered spiritual light in the world almost in the blink of an eye.

Suppressing the body's resistance, Ye Feng opened his mouth, letting the wisps of spiritual energy enter his body with his breath and flow slowly along his meridians.

"laugh!"

The moment the spiritual energy entered his body, the sound of a sword resounded. In his dantian, Ye Feng's originally dim sword soul phantom trembled slightly, as if it had been threatened and instinctively wanted to resist this foreign energy.

Ye Feng remained calm and forcibly suppressed the instinctive reaction of his sword soul. He endured the stinging pain of the spiritual energy touching the remaining sword energy in his body, allowing the strands of spiritual energy to flow through his meridians and eventually merge into the sword soul in his dantian.

Time passed slowly.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

Ye Feng sat cross-legged on the rock like a boulder, his body completely still.

As spiritual energy continued to flow in, the remaining sword energy within Ye Feng's body was gradually replaced and assimilated by the spiritual energy.

This is a slow and painful process. Every collision between sword energy and spiritual energy is like countless needles piercing through the meridians.

Fortunately, Ye Feng was resilient and persevered.

As time went by, with spiritual energy flowing through his body, Ye Feng clearly felt a strange sense of comfort.

Spiritual energy is completely different from sword energy. It lacks the sharpness and ferocity of sword energy, and is more beneficial to oneself. After getting used to this energy, one feels relaxed and comfortable.

"Spiritual energy, truly the fundamental power of this vast world..."

"However, the ability to absorb spiritual energy into the body so quickly and complete a certain degree of transformation is probably inseparable from the so-called innate physique of the individual."

Ye Feng thought to himself, and continued to guide the spiritual energy along the meridians in his body, flowing through his limbs and bones.

Absorbing spiritual energy into the body is only the initial assimilation of spiritual power. Only when the sword soul is transformed into the divine soul of this world, and the dantian and qi sea are transformed into the supreme sea, can it be considered complete.
