Chapter 523: Chapter 307: The New Perfect Star Vein! Concealed Cultivation (Extra Chapters 26, 27)

Rustle~ Li Yuan’s consciousness condensed, easily passing from the first to the second layer of white jade staircase under the oppression of spiritual power.

He arrived at the second layer of the Mind Spirit Divine Palace.

The second layer hadn’t changed much compared to before, save for that one Jade Platform.

But in the hall, golden mist wafted about.

“The first Spiritual Guidance came when my Spiritual Awakening Level reached 25%, so no Origin Power entered my body, and thus, no golden mist,” Li Yuan mused. “But the second Spiritual Guidance, activated when the Spiritual Awakening Level reached 50%, does that overlap with the entry of Origin Power?”

So much time had passed.

The more Li Yuan explored the Mind Spirit Divine Palace, the more he understood, and many of his previous conjectures had been confirmed.

With every 10% increase in Spiritual Awakening Level, golden mist would emerge as the source of the power from the Origin Power entering his body.

Spiritual Guidance, on the other hand, occurred every 25% increase, guiding him within the space of the Life Star.

“Unfortunately, I can’t use this golden mist to enhance my Physical Quality for now,” Li Yuan thought to himself.

Having broken through to level 37 of spiritual power and feeling a change in the Mind Spirit Divine Palace, Li Yuan had tried… The Origin Power could no longer merge into his flesh, nor could it merge into the Sea of Source Energy.

Because Li Yuan hadn’t yet condensed an Origin Pill.

“Even if I don’t actively advance to level 30, my Physical Quality has reached a limit; no amount of golden mist can further improve it,” Li Yuan thought. “This time, the entrance of Origin Power can only be set aside for now.”

“It’s a pity that this golden mist can’t promote the growth of spiritual power alone.”

The previous four times when Origin Power entered his body.

The golden mist could assist both with physical transformation and the growth of spiritual power… But this time, Li Yuan also attempted to integrate the golden mist into his consciousness body, trying to help his spiritual power transform.

He found that it was unsuccessful.

“The entry of Origin Power, enhancing Physical Quality is the core; the fusion of golden mist into consciousness… only comes with the growth of spiritual power as an added benefit,” Li Yuan affirmed this understanding.

Advance to the Flying Heaven level? Li Yuan wouldn’t do it…

Less than two years since he became a Prime Warrior, nowhere near awakening his Star Meridians to their limits, Li Yuan naturally wouldn’t break through.

“My goal is to reach the Eight Star Veins while I’m still a Prime Warrior,” Li Yuan contemplated.

The longer he cultivated, the more Li Yuan realized the difficulty of awakening the Star Meridians; the difficulty increased exponentially the further he progressed.

Yet Li Yuan never abandoned his goal of achieving the Eight Star Veins.

“Hum~”

As he pondered, Li Yuan’s consciousness condensed on the second layer’s Jade Platform in the Mind Spirit Divine Palace.

This Jade Platform had only been successfully used once during the first Spiritual Guidance.

After that, no matter how Li Yuan tried, there was no response.

But today.

“Boom!” When Li Yuan’s consciousness focused on the Jade Platform, he felt as if it had an invisible suction force, quickly absorbing his consciousness into it.

Li Yuan couldn’t stop the process, or rather, he simply went with the flow.

Seconds later.

Li Yuan’s surroundings transformed, and he found himself in the endless dark starry sky, with countless twinkling stars in the distant void… He was once again in the familiar space of his Life Star.

And today was obviously different from usual days.

“Five Star Veins.” Li Yuan could easily sense, in this vast space, the five Star Veins formed by countless Life Stars… as well as a multitude of scattered, unconnected Life Stars.

This was the result of Li Yuan’s years of solitary cultivation and Law Creation.

“Hopefully, with the help of the second Spiritual Awakening, I can ascend to a higher level,” Li Yuan anticipated in his heart.

His inner tranquility stirred a wisp of peculiar change in the Mind Spirit Divine Palace.

Time elapsed.

Gradually.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! In the vast space of the Life Star, streaks of purple mist emitting a strange glow appeared out of nowhere.

These streams emerged from the very depths of the Life Star space, crossed the vast space in the blink of an eye, and drifted toward Li Yuan’s consciousness body.

“Here they come.” Li Yuan, whose spiritual power now greatly surpassed that of his first Spiritual Guidance, detected these purple streams.

At the same time, he also felt the vitality and liveliness contained in these streams.

It was very mysterious.

Clearer than during the first Spiritual Guidance, Li Yuan waited patiently.

Seconds later.

“Hum~” The first strand of purple mist merged silently into Li Yuan’s consciousness body, combining perfectly.

In an instant!

“Hm?” Li Yuan felt his field of vision in his consciousness body expand rapidly: “Have I changed?”

It was as if the lens had zoomed out sharply, yet it was clearer than before.

This state was bizarre, yet incredibly real.

“Five Star Veins!”

“Life Stars!”

“Countless stars.” Li Yuan’s ‘vision’ finally stabilized.

At that moment, empowered by the purple mist, his perspective was elevated to its peak; he felt as if he could overlook the entire Life Star space and had a sense of control over everything.

One star after another, endless!

All these countless stars were asleep, whether Dead Stars, or unawakened Life Stars… all under Li Yuan’s perception and observation.

“My Perception Ability seems to be stronger than during the first Spiritual Guidance,” Li Yuan realized.

Last time, he could only observe most of the Dark Space.

This time, he could faintly glimpse the whole picture.

“Those are the unawakened Life Stars.” In this strange state, Li Yuan could feel the very few exceptions among billions of silent stars.

Life Stars are the rare few.

With a body like the universe, billions of Dead Stars… finding the awakened Life Stars is like panning for gold in a desert, normally very difficult, and a slight misstep can backfire.

Therefore, even for those extraordinary geniuses, awakening Star Veins is incredibly challenging and slow.

At this moment.

“Seeking the minuscule in the dust, combining two into one…” That vast and profound voice suddenly echoed, and Li Yuan had been patiently waiting for this moment.
