"Haha … Thank you."
Feng Qing's eyes lit up when he heard Wang Wei's words.
After all, he and Wang Wei had just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven a few thousand years ago.
Since they had no background or backing, they were still at the bottom of the Spirit Overarching Heaven.
Although he was better now, he could only show off his superiority in front of those who had just ascended and those who had just ascended not long ago.
In the Spirit Overarching Heaven, if one did not have a strong background or backing, one could only rely on oneself to change one's fate.
Whether it was in the Spirit Overarching Heaven or other Devata Realms, one's strength spoke louder than words.
The weak were like ants in front of the strong.
Under such circumstances, they would try their best to make use of the time available to cultivate in order to improve their cultivation as soon as possible.
Because only by further improving their strength would their status in the Spirit Overarching Heaven be correspondingly improved, and they would be able to look down on more people.
They would not only be able to look down on those who had just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven, but also on those who had just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven.
"As for you … Thank you. If it weren't for you, Wang Wei wouldn't have taken the initiative to ask me to switch shifts. "
After thanking Wang Wei, Feng Qing glanced at Duan Ling Tian with a faint smile on his face. Then, he led the group of people who had just left the Celestial Ascension Pool and surrounded Wang Wei away.
After Feng Qing and the others left, apart from those who had yet to become Heavenly Celestials, Duan Lingtian and Wang Wei were the only ones left in the Celestial Ascension Pool that was as big as a football field.
"Since you want to wait, you can wait as long as you want."
Duan Lingtian said indifferently as he looked at Wang Wei who was glaring at him with anger in his eyes.
As soon as Duan Lingtian finished speaking, he ignored the anger in Wang Wei's eyes and closed his eyes to feel the gentle energy in the Celestial Ascension Pool.
It was a power that was similar to Celestial Elemental Energy, but it was also very different from Celestial Elemental Energy. When it touched his body, it gave him a very warm feeling.
It was like soaking in a hot spring.
'Since Third Uncle reminded me not to be in a hurry to leave the Celestial Ascension Pool after I ascend to the Devata Realms, I'm sure it'll be beneficial to me.'
He had only met Xia Jie once, so they couldn't be considered acquaintances.
However, based on the fact that Xia Jie was the third uncle of his wife, Ke 'er, and the fact that Xia Jie had saved his life before, he did not doubt Xia Jie's words at all.
"But … how should I temper the Heavenly Vein?"
"Could it be that I have to absorb the energy from the Celestial Ascension Pool and merge it with my body? Then, it will circulate through my 99 Heavenly Veins while tempering them?"
Duan Lingtian immediately relaxed his body and mind, absorbing the gentle energy from the Celestial Ascension Pool into his body and circulating it through his 99 Heavenly Veins.
"Hmm?"
Although Duan Lingtian deliberately slowed down, he did not notice the energy from the Celestial Ascension Pool had a tempering effect on his 99 Heavenly Veins.
He continued for half an hour, but there was still no effect.
'What's going on? Why is there no effect at all? '
'Is Third Uncle trying to trick me?'
An hour later, Duan Ling Tian opened his eyes in bewilderment.
At this moment, the group of people around Duan Lingtian had not become Heavenly Celestials so they had regained their consciousness as well.
Only Duan Ling Tian and Wang Wei, the silver-armored young man standing next to the Celestial Ascension Pool, were conscious.
As soon as Duan Lingtian opened his eyes, he saw Wang Wei glaring at him coldly. It was as though he wanted to tear him into pieces.
However, Duan Lingtian merely glanced at Wang Wei indifferently and ignored him. Instead, he focused on the 99 Saint Veins in his body.
'There's no reason for Third Uncle to lie to me.'
Duan Lingtian smiled wryly.
"Right!"
All of a sudden, Duan Lingtian seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes lit up. "I think … I can try using the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Spell, to devour the energy in the Celestial Ascension Pool."
"After casting the Elementary Devouring Tactic, the speed at which I absorb the energy in the Celestial Ascension Pool will reach a terrifying level. Perhaps, the energy in the Celestial Ascension Pool will have a tempering effect on the 99 Saint Veins in my body."
With that thought in mind, Duan Lingtian closed his eyes again and cast the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic.
A black vortex appeared and merged with his body.
However, due to the white mist surrounding the Immortal Ascension Pool, Wang Wei, who was standing beside the Immortal Ascension Pool, did not notice anything amiss.
However, Wang Wei soon couldn't help but frown.
Because he clearly saw:
The white mist in the Immortal Ascension Pool where the purple-robed ascender that he hated to the bone was standing shook. Then, it actually twisted and spun, almost completely concealing the purple-robed ascender's figure.
"What's he doing?!"
Wang Wei's expression darkened. However, he could not figure out what Duan Lingtian was doing. He felt even more frustrated.
"Haha … It's really effective!"
At this moment, Duan Lingtian who had cast the Elementary Devouring Tactic quickly discovered that the energy in the Celestial Ascension Pool was being sucked into the Immortal Ascension Pool.
The energy in the Celestial Ascension Pool that he had absorbed through the Elementary Devouring Tactic was running amok in his 99 Heavenly Veins. It was completely out of his control, causing the 99 Heavenly Veins in his body to be greatly pressured.
Under such pressure, the 99 Heavenly Veins continued to be damaged and healed.
In this manner, it continued to circulate.
During this process, Duan Lingtian also experienced a heart-wrenching pain. Every time one of his Heavenly Veins was torn, it was as though a knife was scraping his internal organs. He could only endure the pain silently.
However, as the Heavenly Veins continued to be damaged and healed, they became even more tenacious.
As it turned out, Duan Lingtian's actions were effective.
The ninety-nine Heavenly Veins in his body continued to transform under his relentless tempering ….
With the passage of time, a great transformation similar to that of a phoenix's nirvana had taken place!
Duan Lingtian was so engrossed in tempering his 99 Heavenly Veins that he did not notice.
Around him, as time passed, batch after batch of ascenders appeared.
Naturally, these ascenders had just ascended and had not become Heavenly Celestials. Therefore, they were in a comatose state as well.
That was not all.
Even the group of people who had ascended after Duan Ling Tian who should have become Heavenly Celestials in the Spirit Overarching Heaven did not show any signs of waking up.
At some point, Wang Wei was no longer the only person dressed in silver armor at the edge of the Celestial Ascension Pool.
There were three people dressed in silver armor standing next to Wang Wei. One of them was a middle-aged man, and the other two were young men.
At this moment, the three of them were looking at the people in the Celestial Ascension Pool in confusion.
"W-what's going on?"
"Usually, at this time, there should be three batches of ascenders who had successfully become Heavenly Celestials and woke up. However, none of them showed any signs of becoming Heavenly Celestials or waking up at this time!"
"Wang Wei … Just who is this ascender that's still in the midst of the swirling white fog? Who is he? I have a feeling that the reason why the three groups of ascenders who should have become Heavenly Immortals and awakened didn't wake up has something to do with him! "
…
The gazes of the middle-aged man in silver armor and the other two young men in silver armor fell on Wang Wei who was beside them. Waves of confusion rose in their eyes simultaneously.
They had been here for a while so they knew why Wang Wei was still in the Celestial Ascension Pool.
"You're thinking too much … How could someone who has just ascended be able to affect other ascenders' chances of becoming Heavenly Celestials?"
Wang Wei looked at the faintly discernible purple figure that was surrounded by the constantly rotating white fog with a look of contempt on his face.
"That's true … However, who can explain what's going on?"
"I have a feeling this isn't a coincidence."
"It's a pity we can't use our Divine Consciousness to check the Celestial Ascension Pool. Otherwise, we can use our Divine Consciousness to check if this is the doing of this purple-clad ascender."
…
The middle-aged man and the two young men in silver armor frowned when they heard Wang Wei's words.
Duan Lingtian was unaware of what was going on outside.
He was unaware that he had used his Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, to devour the energy in the Celestial Ascension Pool and affect the ascenders' chances of becoming Heavenly Celestials.
Although the energy in the Celestial Ascension Pool was constantly being nurtured, every time it was nurtured, it would be completely absorbed by him.
Under such circumstances, the group of ascenders around him would not even be able to obtain a single strand of hair.
Until Duan Lingtian discovered:
The 99 Heavenly Veins in his body were no longer damaged. He opened his eyes, and a bright smile appeared on his face …
"My ninety-nine heavenly veins are no longer the same as when I first ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven!"
At this moment, Duan Lingtian could clearly feel the changes in his Heavenly Veins.
Not only had the Heavenly Vein in his body become tougher, but it had also widened significantly.
If the original Saint Veins in his body were as thick as a small snake's body, then each Saint Vein in his body was as thick as a python's body.
They couldn't be compared at all!
Duan Lingtian was pleasantly surprised by the transformation of his 99 Heavenly Veins. He stopped using the Elementary Devouring Technique, and the white fog that enveloped him gradually dissipated, revealing his figure.
"Hmm?"
