At this mont, Ning Fan only needs one secluded cultivation session to completely break through the bottleneck of the Ghost Profound Middle Stage!
His mana is almost comparable to Masters at the Ghost Profound Peak-Stage!
After devouring 466 Ancient God Heart Lotuses, the greatest benefit Ning Fan obtained was not the enhancent of his mana, but rather the initial possibility of opening the second Divine Aperture!
Next to the First Divine Aperture on his heart, a tiny golden light spot appeared.
The location of this golden light spot is precisely where the second Divine Aperture should be!
At this mont, Ning Fan gained an additional layer of enlightennt about the Heart Aperture Technique, achieving further clarity.
As long as he cultivates enough Ancient God Power of the Heart, he can transfer power from the First Divine Aperture, continuously impacting the location of the light spot, and gradually open the second Divine Aperture!
Once he opens the second Divine Aperture, the effects of devouring mystical treasures and enhancing his mana will double again!
Taking one expensive pill or Dao Fruit will grant benefits four tis greater than an ordinary person!
"If I had a complete Ancient God Cultivation Technique, I could cultivate the power of the heart and open the second Divine Aperture! Unfortunately, I lack this technique..."
"If I have enough Ancient God Heart Power, even without a cultivation technique, I can still trace from the First Divine Aperture and open the second Divine Aperture!"
Gazing at the boundless golden lake, Ning Fan’s eyes flickered between passion and helplessness, revealing complex emotions.
This golden lake indeed contains a bit of Ancient God Heart Power, but not enough to support him in opening the second Divine Aperture...
If what the Senluo Immortal King said is true, this piece of golden lake is the legendary ’Heart’s Fountain’—the Heart Source only Three Apertures Ancient Gods can open!
The heart of three apertures can transform into the Heart Source; the heart of seven apertures can establish the Heart Realm!
Two-Apertures Ancient Gods gain effects of mystical treasure enhancent four tis stronger than ordinary people.
Three-Apertures Ancient Gods experience effects of eight tis, and once the Heart Source is opened, their mana would soar by another fold due to the existence of the Heart Source!
"Heart Apertures...Heart Source...Heart Realm..."
Ning Fan’s eyes subtly flashed, retracting his complex thoughts, and he gradually stood up.
Senluo noticed Ning Fan’s aura increased significantly, nodded slightly, and coldly said, "Go to the third level!"
The first level of the Cave of Ti is an ocean of blood.
The second level is a golden lake where the Ancient God Heart Source resides.
The third level is an endless world of vast yellow sand.
Under the setting sun’s light, a solitary river can be vaguely seen at the edge of the yellow sand.
Upon the endless yellow sand stands a golden pyramid-shaped altar.
On the golden altar, a seven-pointed star ancient formation emits dazzling golden brilliance.
The golden-armored ancient god, who was beside Senluo earlier, possessing Abandon-Void cultivation, is now bound with chains, imprisoned at the center of the seven-pointed star formation, enveloped by formation light, showing a face full of pain, continually moaning and begging...
"Master, spare ! Master, I don’t want to die! Master! Your subordinate is almost unable to bear this Ancient God Power!"
The golden ancient god, initially rolling and howling in agony, suddenly sensed Senluo’s arrival, imdiately showing great fear, clenching his teeth tightly, not daring to utter any more moans.
Upon seeing this golden-armored venerated one, Ning Fan’s face imdiately showed an odd expression.
If he hadn’t heard wrong, this golden-armored venerated one, who was rolling and begging for rcy, was the ancient god he previously heard begging for rescue...
Senluo’s cold gaze swept towards the golden-armored venerated one and said,
"This person is a Half-Vein Ancient God, lacking fortuity, unable to open the First Divine Aperture, thus it’s hard for him to withstand the Ancient God Power of the Heart of Flowing Sand. He is the third Spirit of mine, nad ’Three Revolution Dan Master’, Mux Tu’s given na is ’Two Revolution Dan Master’."
He glanced over this world of golden desert and said,
"Here is the ’Heart World’—Heart Realm only Seven Orifices Ancient Gods can open! It’s said that in the Immorial tis, soone cultivated the Heart Realm to its utmost realm, making the Heart Realm a world where ’if you believe, it exists’ and providing an inexhaustible source of mana for the Ancient God! The Heart Source in the second level was opened by the Flowing Sand Ancestor. The Heart Realm in the third level was also, by chance, opened by the Flowing Sand Ancestor. Unfortunately, this Heart Realm is incomplete, unable to provide an unending source of mana for the ancestor. However, it contains extrely mysterious principles—The world, only by heart! The Third World is illusory, only created by the heart!"
The world, only by heart! The Third World is illusory, only created by the heart!
Senluo’s words turned into a stormy wave, overturning within Ning Fan’s heart!
A simple sentence yet encompasses endless profound principles, vastly different from Ning Fan’s understanding of Dao until now!
Only by heart, only by heart... That is a power entirely different from the existent rules of the world!
This sentence seems to describe everything existing in this world; apart from one’s own heart, all is illusory, only the heart is real.
If the heart is born, everything is born; if the heart dies, everything dies.
If the heart outlines the trajectory of the world, a world can be created!
In this world, if one believes, it can exist! Everything here is born from a single thought of the heart!
In this world, only the heart is real... only the material is illusory...
The mind and matter, these two opposing concepts contain all the contradictory great principles of the world within them.
Upon hearing Senluo’s words, Ning Fan felt countless insights rising within him, but when he tried to comprehend them deeply, he realized he understood nothing...
"Mux Tu... this na doesn’t sound good, not as smooth as ’Second God’." While Ning Fan was seriously trying to understand the Dao, Senluo suddenly frowned and said with a stern expression.
"Mux Tu... Second God..." Ning Fan’s expression turned quirky again, his state of mind was disturbed, and he could no longer comprehend the Dao.
He hadn’t expected that the nas given by the Senluo Immortal King to his second and third spirits would sound so unpleasant.
Mux Tu seems to sound much better than Second God, at least it’s a normal na.
Second God, Third God... There are quite a few masters in the world who can’t na things properly.
"Two hours have already passed, yet Mux Tu’s formation seems not to be ready. The Ancient God Power within the seven-pointed star formation is still not strong enough! Third God’s cry is not yet intense enough! This indicates that the Flowing Sand Ancestor’s Ancient God Heart has yet to fully awaken! His formation is fundantally incomplete! Hmph!"
Senluo scanned the strength of the formation light of the seven-pointed star formation and snorted coldly in displeasure.
Mux Tu claid he could arrange the formation in two hours and completely awaken the Heart of Flowing Sand, yet he failed to fulfill his promise. He must be punished accordingly!
Senluo’s figure flickered, appearing beneath the altar with a gloomy face, quietly waiting.
Ning Fan remained silent, following Senluo to appear beneath the altar.
Senluo was dissatisfied with Mux Tu’s slow formation arrangent but had no choice but to continue waiting.
Ning Fan stood atop the endless yellow sand, his thoughts stirred as he raised a finger, and a mountain suddenly appeared on the flat sand, transford by a spell.
The mountain had barely appeared before it began to weather and decay visibly, rapidly turning into sand and dust!
"The power of ti filling this place is so strong!" Ning Fan’s gaze changed, filled with shock.
The power of ti in this place will attack anything entering the realm that is not an Ancient God!
Third God is a Half-Vein Ancient God, Ning Fan is a One Orifice Ancient God, Senluo has no orifice but has already forcibly swallowed half of the Heart of Flowing Sand’s power.
They will not be attacked by the power of ti, but anything else entering this realm will face the danger of weathering and decay!
"Do you know which Ancient God Bloodline the Flowing Sand Ancestor practiced?" Senluo suddenly tested Ning Fan from the side.
Ning Fan hadn’t anticipated such a question from Senluo, thought for a mont, and then shook his head. "I don’t know. Is it the Ti Bloodline?"
"No! The Ti Bloodline, also known as the ’Forgotten World Bloodline,’ is a unique Ancient God Bloodline of the Ancestor God of the Forgotten World. Presently, only a junior in the entire Northern Heaven possesses this bloodline, seemingly a relative of the Bei Family from the Yishi Palace... Within the Eastern Heaven, no master has ever practiced the Forgotten World Bloodline. The Flowing Sand Ancestor’s Divine Blood Bloodline is called the ’True Sun Vein,’ and he cultivated the True God’s body, revered as the Sun God! His power of ti is said to be a product nurtured from the power of the True Sun." Senluo Immortal King said coldly.
"True Sun Vein? Nurturing the power of ti from the power of the True Sun! How is this possible!"
Ning Fan’s gaze shook, finding it difficult, with his experience, to understand the connection between the power of the True Sun and the power of ti. One is the power of extre Yang and strength, the other is the power of the passage of ti... where is the connection between them...
How could the power of the True Sun nurture the power of ti?
The True Sun, ti... True Sun, ti... one Yang, one Yin...
Ning Fan’s gaze beca bewildered, he seed to understand sothing about this Dao but could not see through it.
Perhaps Senluo Immortal King found the waiting too tedious, he questioned again,
"Have you heard of the Heaven Suppressing Treasure of the Eastern Heaven Immortal World?"
"I’ve heard of it, the Heaven Suppressing Treasure of the Eastern Heaven Immortal World is called the Heaven Suppressing Bell, a treasure left by the Ancestral Emperor from the Eastern Heaven. This bell has infinite power, reputedly can destroy a realm with a single ringing." Ning Fan replied.
Of course, he had heard of the Heaven Suppressing Bell’s fa, not only in the Eastern Heaven, but he also heard from Bei Li about its fa early on during his Divinity Transformation stage within the ocean of clouds.
Speaking of which, the Heaven Suppressing Bell was also quite related to the Eastern Ocean Bell in Ning Fan’s possession and the Bell of Samsara from the Northern Sea’s ocean of clouds.
"A magnificent ’Bell Rings, Realm Destroyed’!" Senluo Immortal King sneered and asked again, "Have you heard of the Heaven Suppressing Treasure of the Northern Heaven Immortal World?"
"No." Ning Fan shook his head.
"The Heaven Suppressing Treasure of the Northern Heaven Immortal World is nine Supre Yang Pearls called the ’Yin lting Nine Beads’! These beads are originally objects of extre Yang, once activated, they shine as brightly as the sun, nine beads urged together can burn a realm! But the most formidable aspect of these beads is not the attack with true Yang power but the ergence of Yin from the extre Yang, transforming the power of true Yang into the power of ti!"
"Yin lting Nine Beads! From the Extre Yang Erges Yin!"
Ning Fan’s gaze changed, suddenly recalling a formula Luo You had once imparted to him.
There is a sun in the Northern Sea, nad Yin lting!
During Ning Fan’s lower cultivations, he had repeatedly suppressed the enemies’ power of the True Sun with the Yin lting power.
The term Yin lting he had heard of!
The Northern Heaven Suppressing Treasure is nad Yin lting Nine Beads, but the connection of this term with that formula...
"Few among the Four Heavens now know that the Yin lting Treasure Beads originally consist of ten beads, not nine. The tenth bead was found by chance by the Flowing Sand Ancestor, forcibly swallowed and refined! The Yin lting Ten Beads; the first bead is the weakest, the tenth bead is the strongest! The Flowing Sand Ancestor cultivated the power of the True Sun, swallowed the tenth bead, erged Yin from the extre Yang, and cultivated the strongest power of ti in the Eastern Heaven! His Path of Ti is even stronger by half than the orthodox bloodline of Northern Heaven’s Yishi Palace!" Senluo Immortal King continued,
"The Flowing Sand Ancestor swallowed the tenth Yin lting Treasure Bead?!" Ning Fan’s gaze shook suddenly.
He suddenly recalled the golden statue of the Flowing Sand Ancestor, that statue held a treasure bead akin to a small sun in its hand, was that bead the Yin lting Tenth Bead!
The Yin Fusion Tenth Orb was refined by the Flowing Sand Ancestor. Maybe there’s still one fragnt left...
Ning Fan caressed the storage pouch with his palm. Inside the pouch lay quietly a fragnt of a treasure bead filled with the power of the True Sun.
At this mont, Ning Fan was quite certain that the fragnt he held was indeed a piece of the Yin Fusion Tenth Orb!
The Yin Fusion Tenth Orb, the most powerful of all Yin Fusion Beads! It surpasses even the Northern Heaven Suppressing Treasure—Yin lting Nine Beads held by the Yishi Palace!
Ning Fan’s thoughts raced. Now that he possessed a fragnt of the Tenth Orb, who knows what opportunities might co?
Setting aside his excitent, Ning Fan began contemplating the Dao of ’True Yang Transforms to the Extres of Ti’.
Vaguely, he realized that the connection between the power of the True Sun and the power of ti lay in the phrase ’From the Extre Yang Erges Yin.’
Yet, how the power of the True Sun and the power of ti could transform into each other remained beyond understanding.
Speaking of the Flowing Sand Ancestor’s strongest Path of Ti, Senluo’s gaze turned incredibly fervent!
His path of space was the strongest in the Eastern Heaven. If he obtained the strongest Path of Ti, his power would surely skyrocket, that was beyond doubt!
Gradually, his eyes beca blood-red. If he gained such power, this ti, he would definitely make the Godly Void Pavilion pay a heavy price!
Senluo gradually cald down, starting to deduce every step of the plan to attack the Heavenly Prison. Occasionally muttering to himself, allowing Ning Fan to guess so of Senluo’s sches.
Ning Fan was pondering over the exalted truths inadvertently spoken by the Senluo Immortal King.
Confusion, confusion, confusion...
Yang transforms to Yin, what is the extre of Yang? How does True Yang transform into ti...
In the third level desert world, it was now sunset tis.
At dusk, Ning Fan stood amidst the desert under the setting sun, his shadow stretched long, long...
In his bewildernt, he lowered his head and saw the shadow beneath his feet.
Raising his head, he gazed at the setting sun in the vast sky and then at the lone river in the desert at the horizon...
Lonely smoke rises straight in the desert, the long river and setting sun round...
He looked at the mountain of spells beside him, long transford into sand and dust, lost in thought.
He crouched down, scooping up a handful of flowing sand, watching it fall through his fingers, lost in thought.
Underneath the sunlight, there must be shadows. Behind even the tallest facade, there would be skewed shadows.
In this world, there is no perfection. After sunrise, the desert blisters with heat. When the sun sets into night, the desert turns so cold it’s bone-chilling.
Day and night alternate, Yin and Yang rge; the beginning of Yang is at sunrise. The extre of Yang must be at sunset.
At this mont, the sun transford into the crescent moon, the day beca night.
At this mont, the transformation from Yang to the extre Yin illustrated the principle of Yin and Yang.
This principle could apply to the transformation of Yin and Yang; transitioning from True Yang to ti is not just a matter of Yin and Yang.
Ning Fan closed his eyes, imrsed in contemplation for a long while.
Reopening his eyes, looking at the slanting sunset, he suddenly understood sothing.
Sunrise, sunset, moonrise, moonset.
Day turns to night, Yin transforms to Yang, day after day, year after year, amidst all this, lies the passing of ti, the existence of ti.
Ti, ti, the word "light" represents Yang, the sun. The word "yin" represents Yin, the moon.
Yang transforms to Yin, Yin transforms to Yang, thus cyclically, only then can one derive the power of ti, causing ti to pass, allowing the erosion of years to sweep away, obliterate everything...
Ning Fan once again gazed into the vast sky, knowing that the transition from day to night encompasses not only changes of Yin and Yang, not rely day and night cycles, but also the quiet passing of ti.
Ning Fan scooped a handful of sand, realizing that the evolution from mountains to weathered rocks, then to gravel and dust, was silently pushed by the years.
People age because there is the alternation of Yin and Yang, the changes of the days and nights, the quiet passage of ti.
Seas change into mulberry fields as ti changes everything.
Ti is indeed light!
To transform True Yang into ti, the power of the True Yang alone is not sufficient; it requires cultivating the true power of Yin simultaneously, and allowing Yin and Yang to evolve; only then can one derive the power of ti!
The Flowing Sand Ancestor did not cultivate the true power of Yin. He took a shortcut, devouring the Yin Fusion Beads, borrowing their power, allowing the True Sun Power to transform Yin and then Yang, cyclically... thus, achieving the astonishingly powerful Ti Technique!
Ti is the supre secret technique!
The hardest thing to traverse in this world is the earth and sky, the hardest to retain is ti!
Ning Fan tightly clinched the sand in his hand, the tighter he clinched, the larger the gaps between his fingers beca, and the faster the sand disappeared.
Ti, cannot be grasped! No matter how hard you try, you cannot hold onto it!
From dawn to dusk, like this finger. The deceased are like flowing sand, forsaking their bloom...
"Ti, ti..."
Ning Fan does not possess the profound Dao enlightennt of True Yang like the Flowing Sand Ancestor, nor has he systematically trained in the techniques of True Yin, and he lacks a complete Yin Fusion Treasure Pearl to devour, to cleverly comprehend the ultimate truth of Yin Yang transformation, and the wonder of ti’s flow.
Yet he is the bearer of the Yin Yang Locket, the heir of the Ancient Chaos Grand Emperor, the descendant of the Yin Yang Evil Vein!
Throughout his cultivation, although his understanding of Yin and Yang is not deep, it is considerable.
Though not precise, it has a unique touch.
The conversion of Yin and Yang; he has long been able to achieve it using the power of the Yin Yang Locket!
If he were to cultivate strong enough power of the True Sun, he could turn Yang into Yin, revolving Yin and Yang.
If he were to cultivate strong enough power of True Yin, he could change Yin to Yang, transforming Yin and Yang.
He has already grasped the key to cultivating the power of ti, and holds the treasure that is the Yin Yang Locket to cleverly cultivate the power of ti.
What he lacks is rely the dium to convert the power of ti.
Once again, his palm presses onto the storage pouch, Ning Fan makes a resolute decision in his heart.
In his storage pouch, there are 25 pieces of Red Essence Stone, and refining them could greatly enhance his cultivation of the True Sun power.
In his storage pouch, there are also items suspected to be fragnts of Yin Fusion Pearls, once refined, they too could greatly enhance the True Sun power.
With these True Sun powers, coupled with a trace of Blood of Ti within him, he could cultivate a formidable power of ti.
With this power of ti, he could significantly enhance the power of the Wind Mist Finger, and add a stunning technique to his repertoire.
If there were ti, he could refine all these True Sun treasures! But now is not the ti!
Boom!
A massive rumbling suddenly cos from far to near, the trembling within the Cave of Ti suddenly becos increasingly intense.
At this mont, Mux Tu on the first level of the stone cave has set up a formation, praying that the Senluo Immortal King will not punish him for the slow setup.
At this mont, at the bottom of the Flowing Sand Star Sea, the second stone cave suddenly blooms in golden light, the power of ti abruptly increases, just as within the Cave of Ti.
At this mont, the three gods imprisoned at the center of the seven-pointed star formation suddenly scream in agony, their voices full of pain.
At this mont, Senluo’s blood-red eyes flash, commanding Ning Fan sternly,
"You, quickly enter the Seven-Pointed Star Altar, help the Three Gods share the imnse power of the Ancient God within the formation! This power of the Ancient God is too vast, refine as much as you can, and store the rest within your Divine Heart as much as possible!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Fan sweeps away the mood of enlightennt from his eyes, restoring the calm expression of an ancient well, his figure flickers, transforming into an escape light and flying towards the seven-pointed star formation.
He knows the revival of the Flowing Sand Ancestor’s Ancient God Heart has begun!
The second stone cave, no, the Second Divine Aperture, has already revived!
At the instant of the Second Divine Aperture’s revival, the power of the Ancient God within the seven-pointed star formation abruptly doubled, which the Three Gods could not bear!
Ning Fan considered that with his cultivation, it was far from sufficient to refine such a huge amount of Ancient God power, at most he could only refine part of it, the rest must be stored in the Divine Heart, acting as a vessel for the Ancient God power, available for the Senluo Immortal King to use at any ti.
He had inferred many plans from Senluo Immortal King’s words, agreeing as a condition for detoxifying the little demoness, to temporarily serve as a vessel for Senluo Immortal King’s Ancient God power, there was no turning back now!
Leaping onto the Seven-Pointed Star Altar, mountainous Ancient God power imdiately descends from the sky, fiercely pressing down on Ning Fan, the space beside him begins to tremble!
Pain imdiately spreads to every limb and bone, but Ning Fan does not roll on the ground in agony like the Three Gods.
Pain, he does not fear!
His face is pale, slight injuries begin to manifest inside him, yet his gaze carries no fear!
While healing his injuries with the black star power, Ning Fan looks up at the sky!
His eyes are fiery!
This overwhelming force of the Ancient God is the purest power of the Ancient God’s Divine Heart!
It is the power of the Flowing Sand Ancestor’s Divine Heart, perfectly suitable for breaking through the Second Divine Aperture of the Ancient God!
The imnse force of the Ancient God’s Heart surges into Ning Fan’s body, directed by him into his own heart.
Where the golden light point on the heart is located, the power of the Ancient God furiously crashes in!
A tiny aperture is gradually forming!
Second Divine Aperture of the Ancient God!
