Inside the Titled King Palace, the palace spirit said, "Before you leave the True Spirit World, you must remember not to raise your cultivation beyond the second layer of Life and Death realm. For others, it might be a small price to pay, but for you, the price might be your life."
"Ye Chen knows this."
Ye Chen faintly nodded. He was already very satisfied with cultivating to the first layer of Life and Death realm. If the palace spirit didn't tell him the true cultivation method, he would be like others, raising his cultivation base like a fool, and then starting from the aspect of martial skills. It should be known that the Kings of Elysium were not fools. What they lacked was not martial skills, but the true cultivation method. In fact, in terms of martial skills, they might not be weaker than third or fourth layer outsiders. For example, according to the palace spirit, Ye Chen's current battle strength was already equivalent to the third layer outside, and this was under the condition that his cultivation base hadn't reached the first layer. This meant that Ye Chen's martial realm had far surpassed the third layer outside.
"The true cultivation method of Life and Death realm is to condense a Dao Gate in your dantian. What is a Dao Gate? It is the dao you walk. If you cultivate sword dao, the gate you condense is the Sword Dao Gate. If you cultivate blade dao, the gate you condense is the Blade Dao Gate. Regardless of whether it's the Sword Dao Gate or the Blade Dao Gate, there isn't much difference on the surface. It's only determined by the nature of your cultivation method. For example, if you cultivate an ordinary martial dao with the earth attribute, the gate you condense will be earthen yellow."
"The shape of the Dao Gate is the same, and the effect of raising one's realm is also the same. Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, and white. At the first layer of Life and Death realm, the Dao Gate will blossom with a red halo. At the second layer, an orange halo will appear outside the red halo. At the ninth layer, the Dao Gate will blossom with nine layers of white halo. Now, I will teach you the method to condense the Dao Gate. As long as you condense the Dao Gate, raising your realm in the future will be the same as before. Let nature take its course, and there will be no detours. "
As the Hall Spirit spoke, its figure flashed. Before Ye Chen could react, it floated in front of Ye Chen and pointed a finger at the spot between Ye Chen's eyebrows.
In the next moment, the method to condense the Dao Gate automatically entered Ye Chen's mind.
"This is the method to condense the Dao Gate?"
Ye Chen felt as if he had arrived in another world.
"Alright, you can form the Dao Gate in the King Conferment Hall! This should not take more than a month. If there are any mistakes, I can still correct them. "Condensing the Dao Gate was very crucial, so the Hall Spirit was a little worried.
"Alright."
Ye Chen sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.
He wasn't in a rush to condense the Dao Gate. Instead, he memorized the method to condense the Dao Gate, word by word. Seeing this, the Hall Spirit nodded. Being cautious at all times was very rare.
Condensing the Dao Gate was very mysterious. This was because the dantian wasn't any other place. It was the sea of True Yuan. If anything was casually created in the dantian, it would be destroyed by True Yuan and turn back into True Yuan. The Dao Gate was eternal. If it was destroyed by True Yuan, it wouldn't be called the Dao Gate anymore.
Therefore, the structure of the Dao Gate was very complicated. It was like diamond and carbon, one was heaven and the other was earth. In the end, they were just two forms of the same element. The Dao Gate was like a diamond, and True Yuan was carbon. Although the former was condensed from True Yuan, its form had changed.
"Almost there."
Two hours passed. Ye Chen already had a deep understanding of the method to condense the Dao Gate. All he lacked was practice.
Gurgle!
In the dantian, True Yuan boiled and something appeared in the middle.
It was a shard.
The shard gave off a bright light. It looked like a True Yuan crystal, but it was purer and tougher.
The shard became bigger and bigger.
When it became dozens of times bigger, it collapsed and was destroyed by True Yuan. It turned back into a part of True Yuan and no longer existed.
"It seems like I should condense the Dao Gate image first!"
Ye Chen thought.
This time, a blurry door appeared in the dantian. This was the Dao Gate image. The moment the Dao Gate image appeared, although it was on the verge of collapsing from the True Yuan, it didn't collapse.
With the Dao Gate image as the foundation, Ye Chen slowly condensed a bright shard. It was the same method as before, but there was one more step.
However, he still failed in the end.
"The speed of condensing the Dao Gate is too slow. The Dao Gate image can't last that long. Do I have to do it step by step? I don't rush to condense the Dao Gate, but slowly transform it from carbon to diamond."
Ye Chen continued to condense the Dao Gate and immersed himself in it.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Ye Chen was still sitting there cross-legged.
In his dantian, the Dao Gate image became more and more solid. Every once in a while, there would be a change. Although the change was not big, it had not been destroyed by True Yuan yet.
"Fortunately, I'm on the right track."
On the King's Conferring Pillar, the Hall Spirit saw everything. Even the Dao Gate image in the depths of Ye Chen's dantian did not escape his eyes.
"The higher the rank of the cultivation method, the harder it is to condense the Dao Gate. But, correspondingly, the condensed Dao Gate is extremely firm. It won't break easily and cause a drop in cultivation."
Life and Death Realm was an extremely peculiar realm. It had high requirements for cultivation methods. Although condensing the Dao Gate was extremely difficult, the foundation was firm. If the cultivation method's rank was low, the condensed Dao Gate would not be firm enough. Breaking through to the second or third layer might not be a problem, but once one tried to break through to the higher realms, it would be extremely easy to fail, causing the Dao Gate to break and causing a drop in cultivation. In the ancient era, it was not like no one's cultivation had dropped. Some people with poor foundation even dropped from the third layer to the first layer. The Dao Gate would then be completely damaged and would need to be condensed again.
Ye Chen's cultivation method was mid heaven grade, so his foundation could be considered very firm. Even if he didn't make any progress in the future, he would still be able to reach the fourth layer. Without the Dao Gate being damaged, he would even have a high chance of breaking through to the fifth layer.
Another week passed, and it had already been ten days since Ye Chen condensed the Dao Gate.
On this day, the Dao Gate in Ye Chen's dantian was completely formed. It looked like a cyan diamond gate, hard, beautiful, and filled with a sharp aura. The moment the Dao Gate was formed, a scarlet halo suddenly blossomed like a protective cover, protecting the Dao Gate.
At the same time, this cyan diamond gate seemed to have become a channel in the dantian. A large amount of Zhen Yuan passed through the Dao Gate, and when it came out, the quality of the Zhen Yuan had increased by a large margin.
First layer of Life and Death Realm, completed!
