Just as Xia Ruofei was about to control the Spirit Map Scroll to absorb the Boundary Stones in the space, he suddenly stopped.
Because he discovered something else — after a whole day of cultivation, not only did his True Energy cultivation successfully break through to the peak of Qi Refinement Level Eight, it also seemed like … his Mental Energy cultivation had also broken through.
All along, Xia Ruofei's Mental Energy cultivation was higher than his True Energy cultivation. When he was still at Qi Refinement Level Six, his True Energy cultivation had already reached the Spirit Evolution stage. This was already equivalent to the later stage of Qi Refinement, which was the standard of Qi Refinement Level Eight or Level Nine.
Just now, because Xia Ruofei used his Mental Energy when he took out the Spirit Map Scroll, he discovered that his Mental Energy cultivation had unknowingly broken through to the Spirit Gathering stage during the cultivation process. This was equivalent to the cultivation of the Golden Core stage!
In the Qi Refinement stage, the Mental Energy cultivation was divided into three stages: Spirit Formation, Spirit Palpitation, and Spirit Evolution. These stages corresponded to Qi Refinement Levels 1 to 3, 4 to 6, and 7 to 9 respectively.
If it continued to increase, the Mental Energy would enter the Spirit Gathering stage, which corresponded to the cultivation of the Golden Core stage.
Later on, there would also be the Spirit Transformation stage, which corresponded to the cultivation of the Nascent Soul stage, and the Holy Spirit stage, which corresponded to the cultivation of the Primordial Soul stage.
In other words, Xia Ruofei's cultivation had not reached the Golden Core stage yet, but his Mental Energy cultivation had already crossed a large realm and reached the Spirit Gathering stage.
This made Xia Ruofei both surprised and happy.
Spirit Gathering stage, as the name suggested, when one's Mental Energy reached this stage, the soul would undergo a fundamental change.
Xia Ruofei sensed it briefly and immediately discovered the wonders within.
He could clearly feel the Niwan Palace where his soul was located. This meant that he could completely see the Niwan Palace's scene. This was impossible when he was in the Spirit Evolution stage. He only truly experienced the existence of the soul when he went through a deeper level of cultivation with Song Wei.
Now, as long as he concentrated, he could immediately feel the state of his soul in the Niwan Palace.
The soul was more condensed and stronger. This was the Spirit Gathering stage.
Correspondingly, the quantitative change in his mental power had led to a qualitative change. Every strand of mental power was more condensed, and the range of his mental power had increased by more than ten times.
Xia Ruofei expanded his mental power to the limit and found that he could clearly sense the situation at least five or six kilometers around him, and the penetration of his mental power had obviously increased. In the past, when he encountered walls, metal, or some liquid, his mental power would obviously be hindered, but now the hindrance was much smaller.
There were still many changes. For example, he could previously use his mental power to control objects to achieve an effect similar to "telekinesis". Now, this ability had been greatly enhanced.
With great interest, Xia Ruofei examined the many changes brought about by the breakthrough of his spiritual power. He was overjoyed.
He even wanted to try to take the yacht out of the space to see if it would be like that night when the yacht was taken into the space in the middle of the storm, where he would have a splitting headache due to overload.
However, Xia Ruofei resisted the urge.
He decided to let the space absorb the World Stones first.
This time, he had obtained a total of 25 World Stones. In addition to the few remaining World Stones from the previous upgrade, he let the space absorb them.
If his judgment was correct, the space could at least upgrade by another level this time.
Putting aside the many changes brought about by the upgrade of the space, Xia Ruofei was very clear about one thing. Every time the space upgraded, his compatibility with the space would increase correspondingly, and his control over the space would be strengthened.
Under such circumstances, it would also be easier to retrieve items from the space.
Xia Ruofei felt that it would be better to wait until the space upgraded. Presumably, it would be easier to take out the yacht then.
Thus, he reached out and picked up the Spirit Map Scroll, and then his mind moved slightly.
In the Spirit Map World, the 25 World Stones that were suspended in an independent space immediately broke free from the cage.
One of the World Stones emitted a faint glow, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, it began to fade and become brittle.
At the same time, a mysterious aura of the rules permeated the surroundings of the World Stone. Xia Ruofei was very familiar with this aura. It was the aura of the rules of space. This aura quickly merged with the entire space.
2 World Stones, 3 World Stones …
One by one, the World Stones were swallowed by the power of space, and emitted all of their essence, turning into unremarkable pieces of waste stone.
Although he was already mentally prepared, after seeing that the Spirit Map Scroll had absorbed 20 World Stones consecutively without any changes, Xia Ruofei couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
He remembered very clearly that the space only started to upgrade after absorbing about 14 World Stones last time.
Could it be that this time, he had to double it to 28 World Stones?
Then he didn't have enough World Stones on hand!
If he had known earlier, he would have given less World Stones to that white World Raccoon … Xia Ruofei said in his heart.
If the white World Raccoon knew what Xia Ruofei was thinking at this moment, it would definitely remember it and stomp its feet — — the current distribution ratio was already very unfair, did you think that you didn't exploit me enough?
Of course, that white World Raccoon was now in a state similar to deep sleep, and didn't have any reaction to the changes in the outside world.
If it was awake and saw these delicious World Stones being absorbed by the Ring-Tu space like this, it would definitely feel heartache.
Other than being worried that there wouldn't be enough World Stones, Xia Ruofei also had some hidden worries, and that was that the space was absorbing more and more World Stones. This time, it was already absorbing over 20 World Stones, then wouldn't it be absorbing over 40 World Stones next time? What about the next time?
Unfortunately, World Stones were things that could only be chanced upon, and not sought, so he didn't know where to find them next time!
Now that the space had upgraded to this extent, if it still relied on absorbing World Stones to upgrade, it would basically be a fantasy story. The amount of World Stones required would be huge, and perhaps in the later stages, even absorbing an entire World Stone Mine might not be enough.
If he wanted to upgrade the space, the only way was to absorb World Stones.
Fortunately, Xia Ruofei found World Stones in this Jade Roving Immortal Mansion. He had some conjectures that World Stones might not be particularly precious in the ancient cultivation world, otherwise, Daoist Master Bi Youzi wouldn't have put them together with some other miscellaneous things.
Or perhaps there was another possibility, and that was that there were very few cultivators who cultivated the Law of Space, including Bi Youzi, who didn't know the main function of World Stones. Perhaps it was because he needed a small amount of World Stones in other aspects, so he collected them.
No matter which possibility it was, it meant one thing, and that was if he could find the remains of more cultivators, it was very likely that he would find more World Stones.
If he could find the cave left behind by a cultivator who specialized in the Law of Space, he might find more World Stones.
According to Bi Youzi, cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage had all left Earth in search of opportunities, so the number shouldn't be too small.
With so many cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, it was impossible for all of them to have descendants, masters, and juniors. There would always be a few who were alone, or like Bi Youzi, even if they had a master, they would leave their cave to a fated person.
Xia Ruofei felt that in the future, he would have to go to famous mountains, rivers, or even overseas to look for the cave left behind by the ancient cultivators.
While Xia Ruofei's imagination was running wild, the Spirit Map Scroll continued to absorb the World Stones.
Finally, when the 24th World Stone was absorbed, Xia Ruofei clearly felt that the Law of Space in the Spirit Map World had become somewhat chaotic.
Xia Ruofei already had some experience with this and knew that this was the precursor of the space's upgrade. He was full of expectations as he paid attention to the situation in the space.
Sure enough, after the 24th World Stone was absorbed, it fell to the ground with a clatter. The Law of Space in the Spirit Map World seemed to have reached a bottleneck, constantly compressing and changing in the chaotic flow. Finally, after all the laws were compressed to the extreme, they seemed to have broken free of a shackle and rapidly began to reorganize.
Xia Ruofei also clearly felt that the Law of Space in the Spirit Map World had become clearer.
At the same time, in the Mountain Sea Realm, the mountains were rumbling and growing, the land was rapidly expanding outwards, and the sea was constantly extending outwards …
It was as if the Creator was unleashing his boundless power.
It was also because of the breakthrough in his mental power that Xia Ruofei could clearly sense that the spatial membrane of the entire Mountain Sea Realm was expanding outwards.
It was like a balloon being blown up, constantly expanding its boundaries.
The process of the Spirit Map World's upgrade was not long, and the dust settled in a short while.
During the process of the Law of Space being reorganized and perfected, wisps of law aura passed through the white Realm Fox's body, and the light on its body seemed to be brighter …
Xia Ruofei's mental power swept past the little guy's body and found that in such a short time, its vitality had become even more vigorous, but it still showed no signs of waking up.
Xia Ruofei thought to himself, Could it be that the upgrade of the space has also affected the Realm Fox? Please don't cause it to go berserk …
In the space, the only remaining World Stone was floating all by itself.
Xia Ruofei thought about it and did not continue to control the space to absorb it.
It could be foreseen that the next upgrade of the space would require at least thirty to forty World Stones, so absorbing one more would not have any obvious effect.
It was better to keep it for emergencies — what if the white Realm Fox was so hungry that it went crazy? He still had to borrow the World Stones he needed for emergencies. He could not just watch this little guy starve to death!
Although Xia Ruofei was very strict with the white Realm Fox, in fact, he had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. If this little guy's life was really in danger, Xia Ruofei would definitely not be so heartless as to ignore it.
With a thought, he directly constructed a small and stable space, wrapping up the only World Stone and placing it at a high place in the space — even if it was a spare ration for the white World Raccoon, he still had to hide it well. Furthermore, he couldn't let it discover it, or else this little fellow would definitely pretend to be pitiful and keep asking him for it.
Xia Ruofei only used his mental power to maintain contact with the Ring-Tu space in the outside world and checked the upgraded space. He did not enter the space himself.
Right now, he wanted to take out the Azmu yacht first.
Because his top priority was to return to land as soon as possible.
Originally, he was still in the East Sea, and it would not take much time to return to land. However, a storm brought him to the Green Touring Immortal Island, and when he left, he was already in the Indian Ocean.
From here, he would most likely not have enough fuel to return to the three mountains.
Xia Ruofei looked at the approximate location on the GPS and felt that going to Australia from here might be closer than going back to Huaxia.
He had to plan the shortest route as soon as possible. Even if he could not return to the three mountains, he had to at least reach a port in the country. That way, he could rely on the port to replenish his fuel.
After all, his yacht was directly registered in Huaxia, and he did not apply for a visa from another country, so it was impossible for him to enter the territorial waters of another country.
Even if he had the authority to enter the territorial waters of another country or even a port, he could not go there!
It should be known that according to the theoretical range of the yacht, it was impossible for him to sail from the three mountains to any of the nearby ports. The reason why he could sail such a long distance was entirely because he had hundreds of tons of fuel stored in the space.
However, his departure from the three mountains was recorded, and Xia Ruofei would not be able to explain it at all.
Therefore, he could only try his best to reach a port in the country, and it had to be a port where the yacht could sail from the three mountains with a full tank of fuel. After replenishing his fuel, he would return to the three mountains.
This required the use of the yacht's positioning system and main control computer to help plan a route.
Xia Ruofei took a deep breath and locked his mind on the yacht floating in the sea of space. He was slightly nervous.
After the upgrade of the space, his mental connection with the space had become even closer, and his control over the space had also increased significantly. In addition, his mental power had also broken through a large realm, so logically speaking, he should have the ability to control and retrieve the yacht. However, he could not help but feel a lingering fear when he recalled the feeling when he put the yacht into the space that night.
This was not just a problem of mental power overdraft and headaches. If he overused his mental power, it could cause permanent damage to his soul.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei had been in a very dangerous situation last time.
At this point, he could not back down. After gathering his courage, he finally made up his mind and controlled the yacht.
