Chapter 1009 - 1016-1017: Acquiring an Earth-level Lower Grade Magical Treasure, 5th Layer of the Spirit Platform (2)

After speaking, Huang Yi didn't wait for Chen Mo to prepare, she gently flicked her jade hand towards him, causing Chen Mo to fly up and "plop" into the small pool.

"Hot, hot, hot..."

Chen Mo was like a duck dropped into a pot; the moment he touched the pool water, he swiftly jumped out, his skin scorching, and steam rising from his head.

In just this brief contact, Chen Mo felt as if he had been cooked somewhat.

"Go down."

Huang Yi's lips parted lightly, her voice as clear as the first thaw of spring snow, piercing the air and hitting Chen Mo, forming sound wave ripples that knocked him down from the sky.

"Plop!"

Chen Mo fell into the pool again.

The boiling water instinctively prompted him to mobilize his innate spiritual qi to resist.

"You are not allowed to mobilize spiritual power for defense, activate your cultivation technique to absorb it."

Huang Yi's voice penetrated Chen Mo's ears, and the syllables seemed to come alive, restricting his dantian's spiritual power.

The boiling pool water soaked Chen Mo's body, making him scream in agony as if being tortured.

Chen Mo clenched his teeth to endure it; there was no use in not enduring, for with his spiritual power restricted, he couldn't fly up but could only listen to Huang Yi and activate the Golden Crow Heaven Burning Skill to absorb it.

As Chen Mo absorbed, the pool surface instantly formed a whirlpool, with streams of pure energy quickly converging.

[Absorbed a thread of Fire Yang Qi, Golden Crow Heaven Burning Skill experience +1.]

[Absorbed a thread of Fire Yang Qi, Golden Crow Heaven Burning Skill experience +1,]

[...]

Threads of pure Fire Yang Qi entered Chen Mo's body through his skin pores.

Chen Mo's skin also turned red as a boiled shrimp as a result.

Perhaps it was an illusion, but as the system started absorbing,

Chen Mo felt it wasn't as painful as before.

Seeing this, Huang Yi wasn't surprised; after all, Chen Mo was cultivating Solar Qi, why fear such high temperatures?

Seeing Chen Mo adapt, Huang Yi removed the Cyan Hairpin, which transformed into a Cyan Lotus, floating in mid-air, and sat cross-legged on the Cyan Lotus, beginning meditation.

But soon, Huang Yi opened her eyes, her lovely E Mei brows raised slightly.

Because she saw Chen Mo, feeling the absorption was too slow, opened his mouth and started drinking the pool water.

That appetite was akin to whale swallowing.

"Gluttonous Technique!!!" Huang Yi was secretly shocked, how did he know this unique divine power of the Taotie, one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts?

The whirlpool on the pool surface grew larger, and the sound of water gushing spread out.

An hour later.

A difficult-to-suppress joy surged on Chen Mo's face; he was about to break through.

After half a quarter of an hour, a strong aura in Chen Mo's view burst forth from within him, causing the pool water to splash up over a zhang high.

4th Layer of the Spirit Platform.

[Cultivation Technique: Golden Crow Heaven Burning Skill (Great Success 23/10000000).]

[Power: 10235.]

Upon entering the 4th Layer of the Spirit Platform, Chen Mo clearly saw within his dantian, the four-layered spirit platform beneath the Golden Crow, becoming much larger and sturdier.

Previously, when Chen Mo looked at his spirit platform, it seemed like it was made of glass, giving him a sense of fragility, but now, the glass seemed to turn into diamond, looking solid and hard.

"Continue." Chen Mo seized the moment to continue absorbing.

Huang Yi had previously said that the Spirit Platform has a total of five layers; once the five-layered Spirit Platform is forged, it can transform into a Spirit Wheel, entering the Spirit Wheel Realm.

"Buzz."

Inside Chen Mo's mouth, it's as if there was a black hole; a buzzing sound swiftly emanated, gobbling up the pool water in big gulps. Subsequently, the whirlpool rapidly spun with powerful suction exploding forth, as Chen Mo refined the Fire Yang Qi from the pool, the excess water vapor expelling from his ears and nose in steam.

His Gluttonous Technique also reached Advanced (11/100000).

"Is this guy a reincarnation of the Taotie?" Huang Yi could sense that Chen Mo had already absorbed half of the Fire Yang Qi from the Volcanic Earth Core Liquid.

On the island, there is no division between day and night.

Chen Mo didn't know how much time had passed.

"It's coming, it's coming..."

Chen Mo screamed in his heart, directing the Golden Crow Heaven Burning Skill to its extreme, releasing a stronger suction force.

"Splash, splash!"

Under such sudden explosive suction, the pool area Chen Mo occupied immediately started roaring, with flows of mighty Fire Yang Qi visible to the naked eye rushing from the pool water and entering his body.

"Boom!"

One breath later, the pool surface exploded with a boom.

5th Layer of the Spirit Platform, achieved.

[Cultivation Technique: Golden Crow Heaven Burning Skill (Perfection 3/30000000).]

[Power: 148090.]

A surge of extremely ample power suddenly spread to Chen Mo's limbs and bones.

"5th Layer of the Spirit Platform."

Feeling this transformation, Chen Mo's heart was filled with a joyful feeling, having compensated for years, even decades of arduous cultivation using the Volcanic Earth Core Liquid's energy.

"Hehe..."

Though he had successfully advanced to the 5th Layer of the Spirit Platform, Chen Mo did not intend to stop here; breakthrough isn't something easy, and since there was such a good place with remaining energy in the pool, he naturally should seize the opportunity to absorb more pure Fire Yang Qi.

To see if he could enter the Spirit Wheel Realm.

This greedy absorption continued again for half an hour.

Just as Chen Mo thought he could slowly absorb all the energy of the Volcanic Earth Core Liquid.

"Huang Yi, that's enough."

An extremely authoritative voice boomed from the void, seeming to pass through layers of space to reach this world, spreading throughout the Immortal Island.

Chen Mo looked up and saw a huge circle of dazzling golden light appearing in the high sky.

The golden light became increasingly brilliant, as if turning into substance.

That was not a circle of golden light but a giant Vajra Circle.

Inside the Vajra Circle, winds and clouds changed as if an invisible giant hand was frantically stirring it, transforming it into a vortex black hole.

"Boom," a powerful suction force erupted from the vortex black hole.

Chen Mo, soaking in the pool, was lifted away by this suction and flew towards the Vajra Circle.

When he flew past Huang Yi, she suddenly opened her eyes, a beam of cyan light shot from the Cyan Lotus, transforming into a cyan rope and binding Chen Mo tightly, pulling him back to fall onto the Cyan Lotus.

Huang Yi stood up, her jade lips lightly parted, initially sounding crisp as silver bells shaking out frosty echoes from the nine skies, gradually turning into myriad jade beads dropping into the cold pool's continuous clear sound: "Chen Mo's spiritual power baptism is about to complete, can't you wait for this little time?"

Above the nine heavens, the authoritative voice paused for a moment, then said: "This is the unanimous decision of the elders in the clan."

Huang Yi's E Mei brows furrowed, saying: "Just this while, for him alone, still not possible, still can't wait?"

"Huang Yi, over thirty thousand years have passed, the past grace, my clan has long repaid."

With this saying, no matter what Huang Yi said, the authoritative voice no longer responded as the Vajra Circle gathered everything from the island.

Huang Yi quietly watched, gradually sighing softly, closing her eyes.

In less than a quarter of an hour, everything on the island vanished, leaving only barren emptiness.

The Vajra Circle in the high sky subsequently turned into a ray of golden light, which escaped into the void, disappearing.

The Cyan Lotus slowly ascended, taking Huang Yi and Chen Mo away from the volcanic crater, rising to a height overlooking the entire island.

Huang Yi opened her beautiful eyes, softly spoke; this time the ethereal voice carried a touch of sympathy for Chen Mo: "Do you hate it?"

"Don't hate." Chen Mo shook his head; this was his sincere words, having gained so much benefit, what was there to hate?

Huang Yi saw Chen Mo wasn't lying and said again: "Are you not disappointed, if the clan didn't reclaim it, you perhaps could enter the Spirit Wheel Realm."

Chen Mo laughed and shook his head: "Getting it is my fortune, losing it is my fate."

Upon hearing this, Huang Yi studied Chen Mo for a while, suddenly said: "I want to seek an opportunity for you, but you need to enter the fray yourself, do you dare to challenge it?"
