Chapter 164: Harvesting the Spiritual Leyline
Chapter 162
Under the scouring of essence power, time seemed to hold no significance.
Chen Jingzhai fell to a seated position in the depth of the cave. His appearance was solemn and his temperament sacred.
When he finished arranging the marketplace, there were already seventy-two official deities in his body that had manifested.
Three thousand more subordinate deities had awakened, and were in different stages of manifestation.
Chen Jingzhai’s spiritual essence and strength were improving; his body was now stronger than even the spiritual item.
Even so, Chen Jingzhai was shocked to discover that he was still in the Intermediate foundation Plane.
If he wanted to improve his cultivation, it was necessary for him to let the 129,600 acupoints and the seal characters manifest as spirit deities.
Since Chen Jingzhai was unsure of this new revelation, he used the power of the Grotto-heavens divine light to guide the essence fluid.
And the result was incredibly effective. The essence fluid dropped directly on the Mystery Gate, then surged into his body.
…
The difference was akin to a spraying mist, or a watering spout.
The spiritual deities inside Chen Jingzhai did not require further processing, as they were naturally integrated with the spiritual essence.
One acupoint after another was pushed open by the spirit essence, and then linked with each other.
One after another, seal characters that were in the acupoints absorbed the spiritual essence and began to show themselves.
When the official deities in Chen Jingzhai’s body reached three hundred and sixty-five, 84,935 subordinate deities awakened.
At this moment, Chen Jingzhai’s physical body trembled, as he was becoming even more perfect.
His strength and defense had also become more pugnacious, reaching the utmost limit of any cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Plane.
Just the defense alone had far surpassed the capability of a top spiritual item.
At the same time, the Yin Yang Formation Pattern and the Heaven and Earth Formation Pattern both dazzled with brilliance; a third formation pattern was being created.
This third formation was the Reversed Formation, one of the fundamental formations of Daoxuan Peak.
The moment that the Reversed formation appeared, a formation pattern was created, and linked together with the other two formation patterns.
Three formation patterns covered Chen Jingzhai’s chest and abdomen, rising from the groin up to the sternum.
The formation patterns that were originally in the acupoints now visibly manifested on his skin.
It looked like some kind of tattoo, but more mysterious and extremely attractive.
By this time, Chen Jingzhai had broken through to the Advanced Foundation Plane.
But the change did not stop there. On the contrary, it seemed like it was just the beginning.
Under the workings of the Foundation Plane, the three formation patterns had been integrated into a system of official deities, as well as subordinate deities.
All the acupoints that had anything to do with the formation patterns, including the subordinate deities, had all disappeared.
They became part of the formation, and the formation patterns were being blessed onto the bodies of the official deities.
The strength of the official deities suddenly skyrocketed.
In a short period of time, a violent force of absorption came from the Mystery Gate.
Thus, a large amount of essence fluid entered Chen Jingzhai’s body and fell into the mouths of the official deities.
This caused a chain reaction. All 365 official deities opened their eyes in unison.
A vortex reappeared above Chen Jingzhai’s head, but the difference was that it was no longer a vortex of vapor.
It was now a vortex of water formed by the essence fluid, and entered into Chen Jingzhai’s body at an extremely fast rate.
When all 365 official deities expanded rapidly until their bodies were the same size, an inexplicable fluctuation appeared inside Chen Jingzhai’s body.
His consciousness trembled, like an explosion of thunder and lightning which fell into the void.
This was not the first time he had experienced this kind of sensation.
This was clearly a precursor to epiphany.
It was different from the chaotic feelings from before; this time it was clearly comprehended.
In the darkness in front of him, stars began to appear.
Some of the stars were so bright that they shone like diamonds.
But more of the stars were flickering; the light from some of them was so faint that they were barely visible.
The moment when Chen Jingzhai realized that these were his own acupoints, these stars instantly joined together, and turned into a galaxy.
After the galaxy was formed, all the acupoints in Chen Jingzhai’s body opened up, including the hidden acupoints.
129,600 seal characters were completely integrated into Chen Jingzhai’s acupoints at this moment.
The spiritual essence ran through Chen Jingzhai’s skin, flesh, bones, blood, internal organs, etc.
In the depth of his brow chakra, the divine stone was vibrating.
A mysterious aura flew out, followed by the Origin Power that flowed through his physical body.
Immediately after that, invisible vortices appeared in Chen Jingzhai’s navel, the palms of his hands, and the bottom of his feet.
His entire person floated and stood vertically inside the cave.
The invisible vortices actually began to swallow up the essence fluid as well.
In addition, there were also vortices on his back as well as both shoulders.
Counting the Mystery Gate, a full nine vortices were puffing and swallowing the essence fluid.
This greatly sped up the absorption of the essence fluid, and Chen Jingzhai’s body devoured it like a bottomless pit.
When the remaining eight vortices were the same size as the vortex at the Mystery Gate, a chime of the dragon was heard from inside Chen Jingzhai’s body.
Immediately after that, Chen Jingzhai’s hands and feet burst open.
A bloody mist carried chunks of flesh, and quickly sputtered everywhere.
The sounds of explosions continued one after another, with a total of twenty-eight explosions.
Chen Jingzhai was covered in that bloody mist, and the bloody mist poured in through the vortices.
When the bloody mist evaporated, what appeared in the cave was a perfect skeleton.
Starting from the spine, the bones of the arms, leg, feet, and those in the upper body continued to grow.
These bones were no longer pale white, but were as warm and lustrous as white jade.
What was even more amazing was that there were many seal characters engraved on these bones.
Like runes, they fell upon these bones, as if they naturally belonged there.
When the skeleton was fully formed, the flesh, blood, skin, and other internal organs began to grow between breaths.
In just three hours, Chen Jingzhai’s original appearance was restored.
He looked even more perfect than before. The aura around him was complete and perfect; others couldn’t see through him.
Compared to before, Chen Jingzhai, at this moment, possessed an immortal temperament.
The nine vortices had not dissipated, and they were still puffing out a large amount of Essence fluid.
At this time, Chen Jingzhai opened his eyes.
He flexed his hands, feeling their powerful strength, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
With a wave of his hand, the nine vortices floated behind him, forming a circle.
The Grotto-heavens divine light was in front of him, with the nine great vortices behind him. So, he continued on like this.
After walking for about 180 feet, Chen Jingzhai finally saw the spiritual leyline.
It was like an underground river, or, a sleeping dragon.
There were many spiritual stones scattered all around, and the essence fluid could be seen everywhere.
“Intermediate Grade 4!” Chen Jingzhai sighed, it was not a Grade 5 spiritual leyline, after all.
It was not even at the level of superior Grade 4. It seemed that it was because of the leakage of essence power.
Outside the cave, there was no telling how long that giant octopus had been surviving. Conceivably, it must have absorbed plenty of essence power over the years.
And it was not clear how many cave openings there were; the leakage of the essence power had affected the growth of the spiritual leyline.
Although he was a little disappointed, Chen Jingzhai acted decisively nonetheless.
The Grotto-heavens divine light first covered the wall, and a large number of spiritual stones quickly peeled off and fell within the Primordial Essence World.
These spiritual stones were all Grade 4, which could directly supplement the spirit essence of Nascent Zhenjuns.
Their value was extremely high, and was not any less than the essence fluid in terms of the concentration and purity of essence power.
Chen Jingzhai collected all the best spiritual stones, put them into the palace and sealed them with a restrictive formation.
The rest were thrown into the Seven Star Moon Pool.
When it was full, the rest were placed on the 12 Zodiacs mountains or were thrown into the sea of the Primordial Essence World.
After Chen Jingzhai packed up all the spiritual stones, he also calculated the length of the spiritual leyline.
The standard dimension for a Grade 4 spiritual leyline was over ten thousand feet in length and more than three hundred feet in width.
Compared to that, this spiritual leyline was a bit oversized: it was over a hundred thousand feet in length and over one thousand feet in width.
During his inspection, Chen Jingzhai discovered 1492 cave openings from which the essence power leaked.
After reaching the source of the spiritual leyline, Chen Jingzhai directly urged the Grotto-heavens divine light in preparation to harvest the spiritual leyline.
If this was before when he first entered the deep ocean, he would not have been able to do it.
But it was different now. The Primordial Essence Grotto-heavens had been elevated to the Primordial Essence World.
Chen Jingzhai’s control over the Primordial Essence World was further strengthened.
More importantly, he had created a whole body of celestial bones, with the appearance of an Immortal.
Although it was difficult to capture the spiritual leyline, it did not stump him.
When Chen Jingzhai was ready, he pushed the Grotto-heavens divine light to the maximum, covering the entire source.
Then a strong devouring force was emitted from the Primordial Essence World.
The spiritual leyline suddenly vibrated, and began to twist, trying to break free from the power that devoured.
The entire canyon began to shake. The giant octopus monster that was slumbering was now awakened.
Chen Jingzhai gritted his teeth and communicated with the divine stone, while moving the Primordial Essence World.
The divine stone vibrated slightly, and the devouring force of the Primordial Essence World suddenly doubled.
The spiritual leyline was finally shaken loose, as one end of it was swallowed by the Primordial Essence World and entered into the heaven.
The two spiritual deities in heaven, White Jade and Golden Flame, could clearly see a section of the spiritual leyline had appeared in the vortex of the void where the essence power was falling. However, the two deities could not help in reality, except to witness all that was happening.
