Chapter 515: Chapter 30: Rivers Return to the Sea (Part 2)
After opening the second Sword Aperture, Lu Qingshan spent another three days thoroughly restoring the minor damages on the surface of his Nascent Soul.
The cultivation that had slipped away was swiftly returning.
By then, the Nascent Soul within him had fully regained its Spiritual Nature.
The Nascent Soul glowed throughout, and as its eyes opened, an awe-striking brilliance flowed within its pupils.
His aura was now that of a Nascent Soul Early Stage Cultivator.
Having spent eighty days in the Spirit Cleansing Pool, he had restored his cultivation to the peak level it was at before the loss of his Dao foundation.
...
It was not rely a restoration but also a sublimation and transformation.
For the nine-inch-nine Nascent Soul had grown a little more, reaching ten inches in size.
This slight change was the enhancent brought about by the Flawless Dao Foundation.
Lu Qingshan glanced at his panel, which had undergone significant changes:

Rank: Nascent Soul Early Stage——Combat Power Amplification 10 (Supre Nascent Soul 9 Flawless Dao Foundation extra bonus 1)
….
Even more peculiar, within the Nascent Soul’s heart and liver, two points of light shone resplendently.
Those were the two Sword Apertures.
With a thought from Lu Qingshan, the three Life-bound Swords that previously could not be nurtured due to the dimd Nascent Soul and could only be held in its hands, suddenly flickered into motion.
The fiery-red Dragon Sparrow still entered into the first Sword Aperture within the Nascent Soul’s heart.
The erald-green Peach Blossom then swam into the second Sword Aperture within the Nascent Soul’s liver.
As for the sleeping Oblivion, it just found a random corner within the Nascent Soul to settle down.
After the restoration of cultivation to its peak, the Spirit Cleansing Pool’s effect on him diminished greatly.
Because from now on, if he didn’t spend Experience Points to elevate his Cultivation Technique levels, he would have to refine Spiritual Power like other Cultivators, slowly temper his own Nascent Soul, and enhance his cultivation through a painstaking process.
This was his shortcoming.
But there was still sothing in the Spirit Cleansing Pool that greatly enticed him.
The Elent Force that could only be cultivated by Divine Transformation Cultivators!
Lu Qingshan stood up from the bottom of the Spirit Cleansing Pool, his body exuding an ethereal and transcendent aura.
Then, with a light step, his expression calm, he leaped into the most tumultuous point where the waterfall plunged down.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The intense sound of Spiritual Liquid splashing nearly deafened Lu Qingshan’s ears and his head buzzed slightly with dizziness.
An incredibly terrifying pressure attacked instantly, and torrents of spiritual pressure surged.
It wasn’t just his body, even the Nascent Soul within felt as if it were bearing the weight of tens of thousands of pounds at that mont.
To be honest, if it weren’t for the Dao charm of the Flawless Dao Foundation providing protection, he probably wouldn’t have been able to endure it.
The spiritual pressure at the core area of the Spirit Cleansing Pool was much more frightening than he had imagined.
However, if he could withstand it, this would be a huge trial for his Nascent Soul as well.
Lu Qingshan could feel that, in just a short while, his Nascent Soul had beco much tougher due to the spiritual pressure.
If it could beco tough enough, perhaps he could open the third Sword Aperture?
This idea suddenly erged in Lu Qingshan’s mind.
Though he knew it was difficult.
The second Sword Aperture had also been barely opened with the protection of the Flawless Dao Foundation’s Dao charm.
But there was still a glimr of hope, wasn’t there?
After all, he could never have too many Sword Apertures.
Leaving aside the possible existence of new Life-bound Swords in the future, at the very least, arranging a Sword Aperture for Oblivion would also be good.
Lu Qingshan was filled with thoughts, yet he did not forget the main purpose of his visit.
Harvesting Elent Force!
…
Under the watchful eyes of the four Great Cultivators, the days passed by one after another.
What shook them was that there was utter calmness within the Spirit Cleansing Pool; Lu Qingshan, who had entered it, showed no signs of not being able to endure.
“It seems he can indeed withstand the spiritual pressure of the core area of the Spirit Cleansing Pool,” said Minghou three days after Lu Qingshan entered the waterfall’s plunge area.
The other three Void Refining Cultivators were sowhat silent.
After all, before this, the number of Cultivators who could enter the core area of the Spirit Cleansing Pool could be counted on one’s fingers, and to think that today they would encounter another.
“Judging from the current situation, he has been able to stand firm in the core area of the Spirit Cleansing Pool, so naturally, he should also begin trying to harvest the Elent Force that has been accumulating for a long ti,” Wu Zhenshan exhaled slowly and said, “It’s just that we don’t know, in the end, how much Elent Force he will be able to extract.”
“You know, even King Zhuanlun only ditated near the core area back then…” Jin Xing said in a deep voice.
At this thought, the others were visibly moved.
Did this not imply that perhaps this ti there would be another King Zhuanlun?
Lian Gang stubbornly said, “What is there to fear? I’ve said it before, the Elent Force in our Spirit Cleansing Pool is imnsely abundant. Even if King Zhuanlun were to co again, what is there to fear?
And besides, he isn’t King Zhuanlun, and it’s not certain that just because he can ditate in the core area, he will be able to extract a great amount of Elent Force. Elent Force is slippery, and not so easily harvested!”
“That is true,” Wu Zhenshan nodded in agreent.
While Lian Gang’s words were sowhat defiant, they were not without basis.
To harvest the Elent Force hidden in the Spirit Cleansing Pool, there were two steps involved.
The first step was exploration, needing Divine Sense to locate those threads of fine Elent Force within the Spirit Cleansing Pool.
In the Spirit Pool where Spiritual Power was so turbulent, once Divine Sense left the body, it would hardly be able to proceed and would be scattered by the Spiritual Power if not careful.
This required the Cultivator to possess an extraordinarily powerful Primordial Spirit, to ensure that the Divine Sense released was resilient enough not to be dissipated.
And that youngster was still in the core area of the Spirit Cleansing Pool where Spiritual Power was at its most violent, naturally requiring an even higher realm of the Primordial Spirit.
The second step was the actual harvesting.
After finding Elent Force, one then had to draw it into one’s own body.
However, this Elent Force contained extrely pure and imnsely powerful strength, and was also incredibly volatile.
If you didn’t touch them, it would be fine, but as soon as they were contacted, they would imdiately start to go wild.
Those with a good temper might play a ga of eagle catches chicks with you, but those with a bad temper might disregard everything and imdiately begin to collide with your Divine Sense, possessing a staunch quality that would rather be a broken jade than an intact tile.
Indeed, a tough kid.
….
At the bottom of the Spirit Cleansing Pool.
Lu Qingshan’s brow flickered slightly, as he released his Divine Sense to explore the surrounding area.
To the naked eye, the visible Spiritual Power liquid, when observed with Divine Sense, appeared as a beautiful and enchanting, colorful halo of Spiritual Power.
In the space, countless points of Spiritual Power glistened, gathering into surging rivers of Spiritual Power.
Wave after wave of Spiritual Power tides ca crashing, seeming to scatter his Divine Sense.
However, Lu Qingshan’s Primordial Spirit Realm had long since broken through the late stage of Solidifying Form.
Even the average Void Refining Cultivator could not compare to him in the realm of the Primordial Spirit.
Thus, faced with the continuous onslaught of Spiritual Power waves, his Divine Sense stood firm like a rock amidst the sea waves, recklessly searching the surroundings.
In the core area of the Spirit Cleansing Pool, where no one had entered for many years, there was a substantial accumulation of Elent Force.
Before long, Lu Qingshan “saw” a wisp of thick golden light.
This wisp of golden light was distinctly separate from the rivers of light ford by Spiritual Power points, with no signs of rging.
From it ca a violent burst of energy.
“This is Elent Force… truly violent. I hope to capture it smoothly,” Lu Qingshan muttered to himself.
He was not one hundred percent sure about capturing Elent Force.
With a slight sigh in his heart, Lu Qingshan no longer hesitated. His Divine Sense moved, approaching that wisp of violent golden light, preparing to draw it into his body.
The next instant.
Lu Qingshan froze.
A line of glowing small characters silently imprinted themselves into his sight:
“Detection of Elent Force (ownerless, pure) presence. Start absorbing Elent Force and convert it into experience? (Can be converted to 60,000 Experience Points)”
In his previous life, he was not qualified to enter the Spirit Cleansing Pool, so he did not know that the Elent Force in the pool would be determined in this way.
A pleasant surprise!
All the worries vanished, no longer existing.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Qingshan chose yes.
The wisp of golden light was instantly transford into countless fine threads of golden light, rushing towards his body.
Like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea.
Half an hour later.
The golden light, transford by the Elent Force, completely faded and disappeared, absorbed by him to the last bit.
And his experience points increased by 60,000.
This was rely a single wisp of Elent Force!
Lu Qingshan’s heart grew fiery.
His Divine Sense continued to wander, searching for the Elent Force that had accumulated over many years in the core area of the Spirit Cleansing Pool, then absorbing it and converting it into experience points!
At this mont, those Elent Forces were like rivers, and he was like the sea.
Watch the rivers, then let all rivers flow into the sea!
…
…
Outside the Spirit Cleansing Pool.
The four Great Cultivators could not directly see the extraction of Elent Force, but they could clearly feel that the unique aura of Elent Force enveloping the Spirit Cleansing Pool was gradually fading.
“He has actually started to extract Elent Force,” Lian Gang’s expression was sowhat rigid.
“Since he can enter ditation in the core area of the Spirit Cleansing Pool, the possibility of not capturing a single wisp of Elent Force is even lower than the chance of capturing dozens of wisps,” Wu Zhenshan slowly said.
“You’re right,” Ming Hou calmly said, “I’m just curious how much Elent Force he will be able to capture in the end.”
“It couldn’t possibly surpass King Zhuanlun…” Lian Gang muttered under his breath, the one who always nad King Zhuanlun.
Ti passed.
Above the Spirit Cleansing Pool, the aura of the Elent Force seed to be fading more and more.
Lian Gang’s face beca increasingly awkward.
He felt that the gazes of his colleagues looking at him had taken on an unusual aning.
As if to say he had jinxed it?
Boom!
Just then, a thunderous boom echoed from within the Spirit Cleansing Pool.
All four were startled by this change, their eyes filled with surprise and uncertainty as they looked towards the Spirit Cleansing Pool.
Could it be that Lu Qingshan was unable to withstand the spiritual pressure of the core area?
Just as the thought crossed their minds, an astonishing wave of aura burst forth from the bottom of the Spirit Cleansing Pool, sweeping out from the falling waterfall.
Following that, a slender figure erged from the bursting spiritual mist, gradually materializing.
That figure landed beside the Spirit Cleansing Pool, walking directly out of the light shield.
An extrely profound aura emanated from the figure.
“That is… the aura of Elent Force,” Ming Hou’s eyes glead sharply.
Nascent Soul Cultivators cannot produce Elent Force.
This must be because the Elent Force was freshly absorbed by Lu Qingshan, the aura not yet fully dissipated, leaving a residue on his body, thus detectable to them.
By then, all four realized that Lu Qingshan must have captured quite a bit of Elent Force for the residue to remain on him.
Watching Lu Qingshan approach a few steps in front of himself, Ming Hou asked, “Why did you co out early?”
Unknowingly, he softened his tone a great deal and suggested sincerely, “Could you not endure it? If you can’t hold on in the core area, you can also try to capture Elent Force in the periphery of the Spirit Cleansing Pool. Although much more difficult, you still have so hope.”
“That’s not the reason,” Lu Qingshan shook his head.
“Then what is?” Ming Hou asked, surprised.
“I have already absorbed all the Elent Force in the core area of the Spirit Cleansing Pool,” Lu Qingshan replied, “As for the Elent Force in the periphery, I won’t capture it anymore. I’ll leave it for the cultivators who co after.”
