Although Ye Tianze could be said to be vicious and merciless, he wasn't a homicidal maniac. After learning a bit about the situation on the second floor from the middle-aged man, he let him go.
After returning to the mountain valley, Ye Tianze laid down a formation around the origin energy eruption point to isolate it. Then, he sat cross-legged on the origin energy eruption point and absorbed it with all his might.
This origin energy eruption point was purer than the origin energy he had absorbed from the hundreds of origin energy eruptions points. The aura that was poured into it was even denser.
Ye Tianze circulated the Cloudy Heaven Art with all his might. After absorbing for less than ten breaths of time, he felt as if he was about to make a breakthrough.
But this time, he didn't cater to the feeling in his body. The method that Hong Ye and the others had used to squeeze him had made Ye Tianze think of his own potential.
Although his Cloudy Heaven Combat Body was a cultivation method that squeezed out the potential of the human body to the limit, Ye Tianze knew that he hadn't completely reached his limit.
At the very least, his spiritual energy hadn't reached its limit. He needed the five elements to be able to compete with the monsters on the second floor in terms of spiritual energy.
Thus, he didn't take advantage of the situation to break through this time. Instead, he used the Cloudy Heaven Art to suppress his desire to break through.
Suppressing one's realm and not breaking through was even more unbearable than not breaking through. It was like having an itch on your body. You could clearly scratch it, but you resisted the urge to do so.
This feeling lasted for about two hours. It came in waves, but with Ye Tianze's willpower, suppressing it was naturally very easy.
When he began to adapt to this feeling, his desire to break through also became less intense. This continued for three days.
The origin energy eruption point gradually became sparse. This was because he had the heaven-defying Cloudy Heaven Art. He didn't have to worry about the tyrannical origin energy and could directly absorb and refine it.
Although the monsters on the mountain were strong and could directly absorb origin energy after reaching the Earth Realm, they couldn't refine it like Ye Tianze.
After the Yuan Qi entered their bodies, they had to circulate it several times before they could absorb it into their bodies. In comparison, Ye Tianze's Cloudy Heaven Art had an obvious advantage.
Adding on the fact that he had seven spiritual powers, he was like seven children, all crying piteously for food. Although the Intermediate Origin Energy Spurt Point was rich, it was still not enough.
However, his strength had increased. His seven spiritual powers had advanced together, and the inner core in the Nine Dragons Cauldron had been compressed by a layer. Although it seemed smaller, it was actually because the impurities had been removed. It was more refined, and the speed at which spiritual power was converted, as well as the amount of spiritual power it could release, was much more powerful than before.
By the time he finished absorbing all of the spiritual power in this vital Qi eruption point and circulated his spiritual power, the sound of a great river gushed out from every part of his meridians, which sounded like the roar of a dragon.
"Now, even if I don't use the Five Elements Coexistence Technique, I should be able to fight against these monsters with only a few types of spiritual energy."
Ye Tianze circulated his spiritual power a few times, and his Cloudy Heaven Combat Body was constantly strengthened with the qualitative transformation of his spiritual power.
Looking at the vital Qi eruption point again, it was now close to exhaustion. However, the vital Qi eruption point would not disappear just like that. As time passed, it would grow again.
It was like a well. As long as the source was not extinguished, it could continue to produce water.
The Ancestral Dragon Vein was the source of this well. In Mount Buzhou, countless wells were nurtured and provided for the living beings on them to cultivate. Therefore, in the words of those monsters, the vital Qi eruption point was also called a Well of Vital Qi.
However, if a well was sucked dry, it would take a long time for it to grow again. If Ye Tianze wanted to cultivate here in peace, he could guard this well and establish it as his lair.
However, he did not want to cultivate so peacefully. He did not have much time. If he cultivated by guarding the Well of Vital Qi, it would take him a thousand or even a few thousand years to reach the Great Emperor Realm.
Ye Tianze was not in a hurry to leave. He sealed the well and recorded its location. He did not need it, but it did not mean that the people below him did not need it.
This was especially true for those geniuses. If they wanted to grow, they had to enter the second level. The locations of these Well of Vital Qi were reserved for them.
After absorbing the Well of Vital Qi, his cultivation level was at the peak of the middle stage of the Earth Realm. However, Ye Tianze clearly did not intend to break through this peak. He felt that he could still usher in more than a dozen breakthroughs, or even more, before he reached the true limit.
These breakthroughs were a kind of classification of the monsters.
The powerhouses of the first level had to experience at least ten breakthroughs in the Earth Realm before they were qualified to enter the second level to cultivate.
The powerhouses of the second level had to experience twenty or even more breakthroughs before they were qualified to enter the third level.
Hong Ye was a monster who had experienced fifteen breakthroughs. Her strength was not much different from that of the young man, Zhou Ya, and the middle-aged man.
Her strength was slightly stronger because of the Sky Blade. However, it was more because Zhou Ya and the middle-aged man were wary of her because she was the Sky Blade Elder's woman.
On Buzhou Mountain, especially on the mountain, everyone knew how strong the other party was. However, no one knew how strong the other party was without a life-and-death battle.
Everyone was on guard against the other party. No one was willing to use their true strength to fight a life-and-death battle. They would only do so if their strength had reached the limit and they were more than 90% sure of winning.
Ye Tianze took out the middle-aged man's resources. In Ye Tianze's opinion, the middle-aged man's resources were very few. However, there were Primordial Stones among them.
Primordial Stones were crystals condensed from Vital Qi. They were very precious and would only appear in high-level Wells of Vital Qi.
They were only the size of a fingernail, but contained the Vital Qi of an elementary Well of Vital Qi.
Apart from these twenty Primordial Stones, the middle-aged man did not have anything else. Most of the resources he obtained were used immediately.
Primordial Stones were the real hard currency on the mountain. As for contribution points, they were worthless in the eyes of the freaks on the mountain.
If Lu Xiufu had not taken Taiyi's Red Devil Cloak as a reward for the contribution list, those freaks would not have jumped out to compete for the list.
There were no high-level Wells of Vital Qi on the first level, so there were no Primordial Stones at all. There were not many high-level Wells of Vital Qi on the second level either. Even if there were, they were in the territory of the foreign races. The territory occupied by the human race on the second level was very small.
The higher one went, the more resources there were. However, the smaller the territory, the more intense the competition.
Ye Tianze took the Primordial Stones and absorbed them all without hesitation. He had just experienced his first breakthrough in the Earth Realm, so he did not need to save up Primordial Stones.
After absorbing twenty Primordial Stones, there was not even a single breakthrough. He could only feel his Vital Qi become purer and thicker. It was like snow, accumulating more and more.
Then, he opened Hong Ye's Yin and Yang Ring. He did not know before opening it, but when he did, he was shocked.
As expected, women were better at housekeeping than men. There were hundreds of Primordial Stones in Hong Ye's Yin and Yang Ring. This was equivalent to a mid-level Well of Vital Qi.
Apart from that, there was also a large amount of spiritual herbs for refining elixirs. The elixir Hong Ye was refining was called the Tianyi Elixir.
This Tianyi Elixir was specially used for breaking through to the Heaven Realm. Clearly, Hong Ye was preparing to squeeze him dry again after reaching her limit.
She had already found dozens of materials to refine the Tianyi Elixir. Most of them were rare herbs that were produced on the mountain.
There was no need to mention the medicinal effects. With Ye Tianze's level, these materials were enough to refine seven or eight elixirs that strengthened spiritual energy.
Apart from that, there were some miscellaneous materials in the Yin and Yang Ring. Ye Tianze directly smelted the materials into the Chaos Essence Umbrella. Some treasures were also directly devoured by the Chaos Essence Umbrella.
Now that the Chaos Essence Umbrella was an upper-grade immortal weapon, Ye Tianze was getting used to it.
Apart from materials and spiritual herbs, there were some elixirs. Ye Tianze used a lot of them and gave them to the Elixir King to break down.
Finally, a Jade Slips in the Yin and Yang Ring attracted him. He opened it and found that it was the Heaven Blade's technique.
With his experience, he could tell at a glance that the Heaven Blade could not have been created by the Heaven Blade Elder. This was because the Heaven Blade was cultivated to the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm. It was even similar to the sword technique that Taiyi taught him. It was comparable to his Nine Spears of Turbid Heaven.
"If I were to use this Heaven Blade … I would definitely be able to defeat the enemy with one strike."
Ye Tianze practiced a little in his sea of consciousness and found the problem. "The Heaven Blade Elder was probably worried that Hongye's cultivation would not be able to master this move. Therefore, he modified the Heaven Blade and split it into several blades to be used. However, this way, the requirement of cultivation is lower, the power is weaker, and the consumption is multiplied. No wonder Hongye was able to recover right under my nose. She probably thought that I was exhausted and would not attack her."
After recording the Heaven Blade's technique, Ye Tianze immediately checked the divine weapon Heaven Blade. He did not hesitate to erase the imprint on it.
"Mm! This Heaven Blade … seems to have been recast? "Ye Tianze sized it up.
He found that there was a gap in the Heaven Blade. Half of the people would not be able to see the gap, but it was obviously broken. Although it was refined with a special method, it could not escape Ye Tianze's eyes.
"The front part of the blade was recast. The back part is the original blade!"
Ye Tianze thought, "No wonder it looks so disharmonious!"
Ye Tianze wanted to ask the Lamp Spirit, but the Lamp Spirit did not want to talk to him, so he gave up on the idea.
Ye Tianze opened the Chaos Umbrella and activated the Nine Luminaries Green Lotus to merge the Heaven Blade with the Chaos Umbrella. However, something unexpected happened.
Under the refinement of the Nine Luminaries Green Lotus, the front part of the saber suddenly melted. The runes on the saber were unable to withstand the heat and instantly collapsed. The next part of the saber was instantly reduced to dust.
Following this, a terrifying Saber Intent burst out from the gap. Ye Tianze, who was caught off guard, was hit by the Saber Intent. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Such a powerful Saber Intent!"
Ye Tianze flicked his fingers and executed the Chaos Heaven Technique. He used the will of the Chaos Heaven and the Nine Luminaries Green Lotus to barely suppress the Saber Intent.
However, he did not dare to lower his guard. He immediately executed a few more forbidding auras to seal off the Saber Intent with the Chaos Umbrella.
After doing all this, Ye Tianze let out a long sigh and mumbled to himself, "So the reason for recasting the broken saber was not to make it easier to use, but because the Saber Intent of the broken saber was too strong, so the purpose was to seal the Saber Intent. If it were someone else, their Divine Sense would be shattered by the Saber Intent, turning them into an idiot!"
Even after losing the other half, the broken saber was still a Godly Weapon. Although it was only at the primary level, Ye Tianze knew that the person who used the broken saber was definitely a peerless expert.
