n“Buzz…”

n“Buzz…”

n“Buzz…”

nAs Zhu Song and Zheng Hong exclaimed, Chen Yiming waved his finger in the air like a pen.

nThe air was constantly trembling. Threads of spiritual power extended from one node to another, turning into a huge crystal that floated in midair.

nThe crystal was colorless and transparent, with a large number of irregular sections. As it spun quietly in place, it refracted the light into seven colors.

nOn the surface, this crystal was about 70% similar to the crystal shadow that Feng Wuji had activated. It was the same principle as the concept diagram that humans had comprehended from the creatures from the otherworld.

nThe original version was different from the version suitable for most people.

n“A technique targeted at tempering one’s spiritual power was created just like that!”

nThis was too unexpected and unbelievable. Zhu Song and Zheng Hong knew very well that the spiritual domain had always been a forbidden area for research.

nThis forbidden area did not mean that no one was allowed to study it. It was just that spiritual power involved the human brain. Unlike the other parts of the body that were relatively crude, the outcome of experimenting carelessly with the brain was almost equivalent to killing someone.

nIn reality, most warrior candidates could only vaguely sense their spiritual world. That was why it was so difficult to draw the concept diagram.

nIn other words, before one’s spiritual power materialized, it was very difficult to study the spiritual domain. There were too few people who had the ability to analyze the essence of spiritual power.

n“Too similar! Too similar!”

nFeng Wuji was dumbfounded and could not help but reach out to touch it.

nWhen his finger approached the crystal in midair, the color of blood on the surface of his skin gradually faded, and his nails began to turn pale.

nThe purification power emitted by the crystal was too strong. He could only go up to one meter from it, and could not get any closer.

nChen Yiming coughed and said, “It’s something I created from a flash of inspiration. The first version of the crystal meditation technique isn’t very suitable for everyone. It’s only suitable for people with materialized spiritual power to try and cultivate.”

nZhu Song, Zheng Hong, and Feng Wuji, who were all half a step away from the master realm, were stunned. When they turned around and saw Chen Yiming standing with his hands behind his back under the sunlight, they felt like he had the aura of a martial arts grandmaster.

nChen Yiming continued, “Feng Wuji, you can also take a look. It might help you develop your crystal shadow talent further.”

nFeng Wuji nodded gratefully and circled the crystal in midair.

nHe tried to extend his spiritual power into the crystal, but he lost control of a portion of his spiritual power. The pain he felt made him gasp.

nThen, the spiritual power that he had lost control of dissipated, and all traces of his power was purified. The crystal had washed it out like it was an impurity.

nZhu Song and Zheng Hong looked at the ball of spiritual power with burning gazes.

nAt this moment, this was like the most delicious food in the world to them, and they could not take their eyes off it. The two of them finally understood one of the reasons for Feng Wuji’s rapid improvement.

nSeeing this, Chen Yiming reminded them, “Even if it is a purified form of spiritual power, it’s still a foreign object. It’s different from one’s own spiritual power.

nIt’s not impossible to directly absorb it, but you have to continue the purification through the crystal meditation technique, and leave your mark on it.

nFurthermore, it’s best to absorb power from something at a lower level than you to prevent the situation where remnant marks of other creatures cannot be completely removed, leaving behind some unpredictable hidden dangers.”

nFrom this perspective, the crystal meditation technique seemed to be a demonic technique.

nThose who cultivated this technique could rely on killing a large number of creatures and simply purify and absorb the other party’s spiritual power to quickly gather more spiritual power, as long as one was not afraid of the possible confusion, influence of the thoughts from the defeated creatures, and the remnant impurities that may exist.

n…

nAfter the mediation team left the Green Mountain Sect, the Spirit Clan and the Sword Clan split up the resources from the sect.

nIn the end, just as Chen Yiming had guessed, the Sword Clan didn’t care about the current location of the Green Mountain Sect and took the initiative to move to another location.

nPerhaps it was because Feng Wuji had secretly interacted with the elders of the Sword Clan, but their new location had yet to be decided. The entire Sword Clan was temporarily staying at a martial arts school set up in the city by the original Green Mountain Sect.

nEast Lake City was much more lively than before.

nCompared to usual, there seemed to be more martial arts experts in the city, especially the famous figures in the province.

nAn endless number of factions had come to visit the Chen family. It was not only the leaders of the provinces and cities, but also the large sects from the surrounding provinces.

nCountless rare items that would cause a bloodbath once they were revealed outside were already piled up in the storeroom. They had no choice but to arrange for another place to store them.

nThe influence of the crystal meditation technique gradually spread, and it did not lose to the influence of the 10,000-meter-long corpse in the middle of the trial grounds.

nAfter he bid farewell to the person in charge of a research institute in another province, Wang Ronghui brought Wu Weiguo to visit.

n“Why are you guys here too?” Chen Yiming asked with a smile.

nWang Ronghui knew that the crystal meditation technique could not be promoted to the general public for the time being. It would take time for it to be simplified, and it would also take time to verify the safety of any new versions.

n“This crystal meditation technique is another huge matter! Now, the provinces are talking about it non-stop,” Wang Ronghui explained with a bitter smile.

n“Is that so?” Chen Yiming said as he gestured for the two of them to enter.

nThe three of them sat down on the sofa. Tea had already been brewed and they could drink it immediately.

n“Why is Institute Head Wu here too? Is there a problem at the research institute?” Chen Yiming asked after sitting down.

nWu Weiguo did not know what to say. Wang Ronghui explained, “A portion of the task of optimizing the crystal meditation technique was assigned to the provincial biological research institute. Old Wu has been going bald working on it for the past two days.”

nChen Yiming sized him up and realized that it was true.

nNot only did Wu Weiguo look tired, but he had also lost a lot of hair. He seemed to have aged by quite a few years.

nThis was also understandable. Faced with the illusory spiritual power, the researchers did not have powers like the internal force or the power of corruption to deal with it.

nMost of them could not even sense their own spiritual world and could only rely on the information provided to imagine the situation.

nWith these conditions, they were now arranged to be in charge of optimizing a portion of the cultivation technique. This was because the power of purification mentioned in the crystal meditation technique was related to the power of corruption of the deformed monsters.

nThis was too difficult for those researchers.

nNext, the three of them drank tea and exchanged some pleasantries. Wang Ronghui also revealed the purpose of his visit. “It’s about the location.”

nThis location referred to the location that Chen Yiming would choose to publicize the crystal meditation technique in the future after optimizing it to a version that could be shared with the general public.

nThis matter was of great concern to many factions. If he chose to release it in East Lake City, would the size of the city be large enough to accommodate the influx of people coming from all over?

nAfter all, Chen Yiming couldn’t openly demonstrate the crystal meditation technique too many times.

nSince watching the founder demonstrate the cultivation technique on the spot would be the best option, everyone was paying attention to this matter. No one dared to guarantee that there would not be a mistake if someone else demonstrated the technique, and they were afraid that there would be a problem if they cultivated a technique that was taught second-hand.

nChen Yiming’s expression turned awkward.

nEveryone was too excited and waiting anxiously, making him feel a little pressured.

nIn reality, there was a huge difference between the crystal meditation technique and the Giant Talent.

nAfter returning from the Green Mountain Sect, he had tried it out himself. He realized that it was almost useless for him, so his interest in it was greatly reduced.

nThe three of them chatted for a while more.

nAs Chen Yiming had not thought about it, the matter of choosing a location was put aside for the time being. Wu Weiguo took the opportunity to ask, “Do you need more miracle blood?”

nChen Yiming silently calculated the rate at which it was being used. There was still about half of it left. He said politely, “It’s enough for now.”

nWu Weiguo said, “The production capacity of the miracle blood has increased a lot. You can come over and get it at any time.”

nAbout half an hour later, the two of them left the Chen family’s house. Wang Ronghui shook his head and sighed.

nHe could vaguely sense that Chen Yiming wasn’t too concerned about the crystal meditation technique.

nSo what if he was the head of the province? In front of this person, he was nothing. He could only rely on their past relationship to exchange a few pleasantries. If he said too much, he would only ruin their relationship.

nThe difference between two humans was even greater than the difference between humans and apes.

nJust like the trial grounds, the crystal meditation technique that could change the cultivation environment made countless people extremely anxious.

n…

nA few days later, in the wilderness, deep in the forest.

n“Brother! My head feels like it’s about to explode. I feel terrible.”

nChen Yingying closed her eyes and rubbed her temples.

nAt this moment, she felt like the world was spinning. She wanted to maintain her balance, but she had completely lost control of her body.

nNot far away, Chen Yiming thought to himself, “Choosing Chen Yingying was indeed a mistake. Even if she bathes in the miracle blood every day, it won’t be able to make up for her poor talent.”

nOver the past few days, he had been modifying the crystal meditation technique in his spare time, creating version 1.0 of the crystal meditation technique.

nIn this version, the power of purification was greatly weakened and had almost no ability to be used for the offensive. It only retained the strength of the defense against the invasion of the power of corruption and the ability to slowly temper one’s spiritual power.

nWith such bold and decisive modifications, the complexity of the spiritual concept diagram was greatly reduced. The crystal shadows no longer had the natural feeling from before, and man-made traces could be made out with the naked eye.

nCompared to Feng Wuji’s crystal shadow talent, the original crystal meditation technique was even more complete and detailed. The current version 1.0 could only be considered a super weak version.

nAfter letting his sister rest for 10 minutes, Chen Yiming started to teach her step by step. There was no better way.

nRelying on the fact that his spiritual power could remain materialized forever in the air, he slowly traced the spiritual concept diagram that formed the crystal shadow.

n“Do you remember it clearly?”

nChen Yiming asked after the demonstration.

n“About half of it.”

nChen Yingying lowered her head and quickly glanced at Chen Yiming’s expression. She realized that there was no change in his expression.

n“It’s alright. If you can’t do it after the first time, I’ll show you a few more times,” Chen Yiming said calmly.

nAt the same time, he completely understood the reality of the situation. His sister had relied on the miracle blood to improve her physique to break through to the warrior realm, so her spiritual talent was naturally very poor.

nIf she wanted to go further on the path of martial arts in the future, she had to master a stronger version of the crystal meditation technique.

nTwo hours later, Chen Yiming held his sister’s hand as they walked back to East Lake City.

nThis was her first time trying to temper her spiritual power. Chen Yingying was under a lot of pressure both physically and mentally. Constructing the crystal shadow in her spiritual world felt like someone was using a sledgehammer to modify the shape of her brain.

nAfter each knock, she felt like she was about to faint.

n…

nThe next day, after checking Chen Yingying’s physical condition and not finding any side effects from cultivating the crystal meditation technique, Chen Yiming headed straight to the provincial biological research institute.

nVersion 1.0 of the crystal meditation technique was too weak. Chen Yiming wasn’t sure how it would fare against the corruption from the deformed monster.

nHe planned to use his materialized spiritual power to construct a crystal for the research institute to conduct various tests on.

nIf the power of purification was not strong enough, he could continue to adjust it to create version 2.0 of the crystal meditation technique.

n…

nNot long after, Chen Yiming left the provincial biological research institute.

nBehind him, all the researchers were very excited. All of them had looks of joy on their faces, and they wished they could return to the laboratory immediately.

nThe institute head, Wu Weiguo, sent him from the laboratory building to the entrance of the research institute. Along the way, he expressed his gratitude in various ways.

n10 minutes ago, Chen Yiming had carved out a spiritual crystal in front of everyone, allowing the researchers to see his materialized spiritual power for the first time.

nIt was colorless and transparent, and they crystal was only the size of a fist. It floated quietly in the air.

nHowever, even with just a glance, it placed an extremely strong invisible pressure on the person watching it, as well as inducing a feeling of fear.

nCompared to Chen Yiming, ordinary people would explode immediately if their consciousness came into contact with his materialized spiritual power.

nEven if they just made eye contact with it, the aura it emitted was like a sharp blade to ordinary people. They could not get too close to it.

nOne would die if they touched it.

nWu Susu, who was beside Wu Weiguo, hesitated for a moment before asking, “Um… If it’s not a problem to test it out, can we try to cultivate the crystal meditation technique using the spiritual power crystal you left behind?”

nChen Yiming glanced at Superintendent Wu’s daughter, not understanding what she was trying to say.

nThe purification power of the crystal meditation technique was targeted against the power of corruption from the deformed monsters. This was an opposition at the level of these supernatural powers. The highest cultivation level of the researchers in front of him was only at the middle stage of the disciple realm.

nChen Yingying had already verified that since it involved the mysterious spiritual domain, the difficulty of cultivating the crystal meditation technique was very high. At the very least, it was not something that ordinary warrior-level internal force cultivation techniques could compare to.

nUnless there was someone in the research institute who was born with extraordinary spiritual talent, it was not suitable to test it out. Furthermore, such people would definitely have already stood out in the martial arts world, and it was unlikely for them to be doing research.

nSeeing this, Wu Weiguo quickly explained, “Susu’s memory has been astonishing since she was young. No matter what it was, she could learn it and understand it immediately. She can remember almost everything she has seen before. She also entered a martial arts school for a period of time.

nHowever, her physical talent was one of the worst. At that time, the head of the school regretfully said that the difficulty of Susu breaking through to the warrior realm was lower than the difficulty of her transformation in the disciple realm.

nLater, Susu felt that she was more interested in books, and her martial arts progress was slow, so she quit the school and became a researcher.”

nChen Yiming said in surprise, “Is that so?”

nThis was also the first time he had heard or encountered such a situation. It sounded unbelievable.

nHe released some of his spiritual power while completely restraining his aura, and used it to carefully approach Wu Susu. He observed the situation inside from outside her spiritual barrier.

nA dark yellow ball floated in the middle of the space. Below it was a naked figure that looked almost like a human. Chen Yiming was immediately attracted to it.

nThe naked figure was formed from Wu Susu’s consciousness. It was a little similar to the figure in his mind. She was born with the ability to simulate a human figure in her mind.

n
