At the lakeside of the desolate Abandoned Land.
Qin Yun, who was dressed as an old scholar, sat on the grass and looked at the island in the center of the lake from time to time.
The lake water was so clear that the bottom could be seen. The island refined by Yu Zhu was shrouded in a thick white mist.
The white mist was like a veil that covered the island and the lake.
"Whoosh!"
Qin Yun took a deep breath. The white mist flowed into his mouth and nose like a whale sucking in water, turning into dense spiritual energy and entering his Golden Hall Microcosm.
"The spiritual energy here is comparable to that of the Seven Divine Sects. In time, it will be purer and denser!"
A wisp of his mind wandered around his Golden Hall Microcosm like lightning. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the island in front of him in a daze.
"I wonder how many Golden Halls the young master can refine?"
He knew that Yu Zhu had thrown him up from the island in the center of the lake to gather spiritual energy and pour it into Yu Yuan's body to help Yu Yuan refine his Golden Hall Microcosm.
The number of rounds of refinement a cultivator could undergo in the middle stage of the Golden Hall Realm determined the upper limit of a cultivator.
When Qin Yun was young, he was like Fan Li, Lin Zhuyun, and Su Yan, a genius of the Five Refinements Golden Hall Microcosm.
Reality proved that he had already reached the late stage of the Yin Soul Realm.
He was only a step away from the Soul Wander Realm.
If his peers didn't reach the Five Refinements Golden Hall Microcosm in the middle stage of the Golden Hall Realm, their limit would usually be the Yin Soul Realm. Very few people could reach the late stage of the Yin Soul Realm like him and had a chance to reach the Soul Wander Realm.
But now, the Imperial Advisor of the Scarlet Sun Empire had already refined a Yang Soul and was a popular figure in the entire Qianxuan Continent.
Legend had it that Zhou Cangmin had refined his lower dantian seven times when he was in the middle stage of the Golden Hall Realm.
Those who had refined their main soul to the Nascent Soul Realm had a chance to step into the ultimate realm!
If they wanted to step into the ultimate realm, they had to refine their lower dantian seven times in the middle stage of the Golden Hall Realm.
The more times they refined their lower dantian, the greater their chances of reaching the Nascent Soul Realm in the future.
Qin Yun had chosen Yu Yuan because he could tell that his temperament and ability were extraordinary. However, in terms of cultivation talent, Yu Yuan had yet to prove himself.
At the intermediate-stage of the Golden Hall Realm, Yu Yuan had condensed more frequently, and this meant that his future accomplishments could be predicted in advance.
"With Young Lord's great talent, you should be able to give me a pleasant surprise at the middle stage of the Golden Hall Realm!"
Qin Yun was filled with anticipation. Every time he inhaled and exhaled spiritual energy, he would glance at the island in the middle of the lake.
Although he couldn't see anything for the time being.
What he didn't know was that there was another person standing quietly in the depths of the clouds.
Like an illusory ghost, Yan Qiling glanced at the island at the center of the lake from time to time, observing Yu Yuan's movements.
He knew that he couldn't hide his existence from Yu Zhu.
However, ever since he showed up in Desolation, he had shown his kindness to Yu Yuan without doing anything out of line. Furthermore, he had always been on the same side as Yu Yuan. Therefore, he must have earned Yu Zhu's trust.
Yu Zhu hadn't warned him, and he hadn't trespassed on the island in the middle of the lake. Therefore, Yu Zhu should have allowed his actions.
"I also want to know how many times that kid can refine his Golden Hall Lesser Heaven and Earth."
…
On the island in the middle of the lake.
White, misty spiritual energy swirled around Yu Yuan in circles.
As he sat there without moving, sparkling and translucent dewdrops formed on his neck, forehead, and exposed arms.
The dewdrops were as translucent as grains of rice. They were the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that had been naturally condensed and purified, and then gathered by Yu Zhu's power.
Every dewdrop was the condensation of spiritual energy.
WHOOSH!
Suddenly, Yu Yuan let out a long breath of turbid air.
The turbid air contained a sour and faint stench, as if it was the dregs of the energy in his body that had been expelled by him with a secret technique.
After that, his refined and thin body trembled slightly.
In the next moment, the skin on his neck, cheeks, and arms that were exposed to the outside world rippled like ripples in water. His skin and flesh rose and fell with a small amplitude.
The sparkling and translucent dewdrops were instantly absorbed by his skin, as if they were water being absorbed by a sponge.
Wisps of grayish-brown smoke rose from his mouth, nose, and ears.
The smoke also contained a sour and faint stench, as if the small world in his lower dantian region had gone through a great change, and the filth and impurities that were detrimental to his dantian region had been cleaned up.
If an outsider peeped into his Golden Hall Lesser Heaven and Earth with their Yin Soul or Yang Soul, they would be able to see the nine suns hanging high in the sky!
The Golden Hall Lesser Heaven and Earth were divided into top and bottom.
The nine suns hanging in the sky seemed to have condensed into a giant well that swallowed the spiritual energy in the small world above the Golden Hall Lesser Heaven and Earth.
The nine blazing suns rotated rapidly, cleansing and purifying the spiritual energy that they swallowed. Like silk being peeled from a cocoon, they refined the spiritual energy into finer and purer strands that flowed from the bottom of the well into the small world below.
The entire small world was as bright as day. A sea of clouds was rolling as if it were functioning endlessly.
The spiritual energy in the small world above was cleansed by the giant well formed by the nine suns. It flowed from the bottom of the well into the small world below, filling up the pond below bit by bit.
Outside the pond, the vast Golden Hall Lesser Heaven and Earth seemed to be collapsing as it underwent a new round of development.
The world was being developed once more!
Yu Yuan was unaware of the passage of time. He only knew that as soon as he willed it, an endless stream of spiritual energy would pour out like a river that had burst its banks.
His refinement of the Golden Hall Lesser Heaven and Earth could continue without stopping.
After the second round, the third round began, and then the fourth round began!
After the fourth refinement of the Golden Hall Lesser Heaven and Earth, in his senses, the space within his lower dantian was more than twice as large as when he had just chiseled open his lower dantian and opened the Golden Hall Lesser Heaven.
After the fourth round, every single strand of spiritual energy had been refined and flowed with a lustrous glow, as if it had been bestowed with a mysterious energy.
He did not know exhaustion and continued to cultivate without eating or sleeping. He also wanted to know how many refinements he could make before he stepped into the late stage of the Golden Hall Realm.
Time flew by like a shuttle, and another period of time passed. His fourth refinement of the Golden Hall Lesser Heaven had also been completed.
He began to march towards the fifth refinement!
The fifth refinement of the Golden Hall Lesser Heaven meant that his true talent was already not inferior to Fan Li, Su Yan, and Lin Zhuyun!
It meant that in the future, he would be able to condense a Yin Soul without any accidents and have the opportunity to break through to the Soul Wandering Realm!
No matter how lowly a fifth refinement Golden Hall Lesser Heaven came from, they would be able to enter the eyes of the various great sects and even have the possibility of becoming an inner court disciple.
His morale soared!
… …
A snow-white figure descended from the clouds beside Yan Qiling like a ghost in the night sky.
Yan Qiling was slightly shocked, and when he saw who it was, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Lord Imperial Advisor, you've resolved the numerous troublesome matters in the ruins so quickly?"
The person that had come was Zhou Cangmin's Yin Soul and not his Yang Soul.
"Naturally, it wasn't that easy." Zhou Cangmin smiled indifferently and said, "Not only did my Yang Soul move out, even my true body that was far away in the Scarlet Sun Empire was forced out to operate. However, I still have to pay a little attention to Yu Yuan's side. I want to know how many refinements he can undergo in the middle stage of the Golden Hall Realm. "
"I've arranged a few places for him to go, but where I'll send him in the end will depend on how many refinements he can achieve."
At this point, the white-clothed Imperial Advisor's expression turned solemn and said, "How many refinements has it been?"
Before he left, he used his Yang Soul to sense the movements of the heavens and earth, and saw that Yu Yuan was wholeheartedly focused on tempering the Golden Hall Realm.
With Yushu's full help, Yu Yuan could have endless spiritual energy pouring in in an instant.
This could help him increase the efficiency of his cultivation by dozens of times!
With this confidence, Yu Yuan could do whatever he wanted. He only needed to focus on the condensation of spiritual energy and didn't have to worry about whether or not there was enough spiritual energy for him to use.
"I can't see through the interior of the island, and can only give my judgment based on the great changes in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth above the island."
Yan Qiling thought seriously for a moment and said, "The great changes in the spiritual energy of the island have occurred four times, and there were four great fluctuations. Every time there was a great fluctuation, there would suddenly be boundless spiritual energy that would suddenly surge into his body and disappear in the blink of an eye. Including the first time, if we judge from this, he should be undergoing the fifth refinement. "
"It's already the fifth refinement!" Zhou Cangmin was slightly shocked.
