[The previous chapter is to add on September 1, 2nd update.]
Not long after, another elder came over with two young Venerables. Now, all ten of them were present.
The valley ahead was enveloped by a formation. The Dark Star Sect's leader walked to the entrance of the formation and said,
"The Cultivation Sacred Pond is located in the depths of the valley ahead. The spring water in the Cultivation Sacred Pond already contains a large amount of astral power. You can directly absorb it from the Sacred Pond to improve your cultivation.
The Cultivation Sacred Pond is divided into ten regions. The ten of you will each have a region. The area of each region is the same, and there is no difference in size. Once you enter, you are not allowed to fight for a spot. Do you hear me? "
Ye Xing and the others nodded at the same time. "We hear you."
The Dark Star Sect's leader stepped aside and said, "Go in. I wish you all a breakthrough in your cultivation."
The entrance of the formation opened, and Ye Xing and the others entered the valley in a single file.
After entering the formation, everyone's vision became clear. They immediately saw the Cultivation Sacred Pond in the depths of the valley.
Although it was called a pond, it was not small. It was close to 50 meters in radius. It was practically a small lake.
There were stone walls in the Cultivation Sacred Pond, dividing the entire pond into ten fan-shaped regions.
There were ten people who entered, so there was a total of ten regions. There was nothing to fight for. Each person could have a region.
Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan chose two adjacent regions and sat down beside the Cultivation Sacred Pond. Soon, the ten of them chose their own regions.
Zhuo Yupeng's blade-like gaze was cast over again. Ye Xing looked to the right and saw Zhuo Yupeng staring at him coldly from more than ten meters away.
"Are you crazy?" Ye Xing thought to himself as he glared at him fiercely.
The smell of gunpowder between the two of them immediately grew stronger. When their gazes collided, there was a feeling of electricity in the air.
Zhuo Yupeng snorted softly and revealed a contemptuous smile before retracting his gaze.
Since the other party did not take the initiative to provoke him, Ye Xing naturally could not be bothered to lower himself to his level. He also retracted his gaze, restrained his distracting thoughts, and calmed his mind.
Soon, everyone began to circulate their cultivation techniques to absorb the energy.
The power of the stars surging from the Dimensional Void was affected by the formation and had nowhere to spread. Instead, it merged into the spring water of the Cultivation Saint Pond, causing the spring water to be like a spiritual spring. Martial artists could directly extract the power of the stars from the spring water.
If Ye Xing used the Black Hole Astral Form to devour the power of the stars, it would cause too much of a commotion and the devouring range would be too wide, affecting others. Therefore, Ye Xing only used the Falling Star Art.
After becoming a Four-Star Venerate, Ye Xing changed the Seventh Level of the Profound Rank Low-Grade Falling Star Art to the Third Level of the Profound Rank Mid-Grade Falling Star Art. Then, he cultivated it to the Fourth Level. The speed at which he absorbed the power of the stars was extremely fast, comparable to that of a Seven Star Venerate.
However, Ye Xing's absorption speed was not as fast as Wei Qingxuan and Zhuo Yupeng's.
Wei Qingxuan's cultivation technique was the Divine Grade Minor Reincarnation Art. Although it was only a Profound Grade Minor Reincarnation Art, it was still a Divine Grade Minor Reincarnation Art. Ye Xing's Falling Star Art was only a Profound Grade Minor Reincarnation Art. Whether it was the strength of the stars or the speed at which they absorbed the power of the stars, Wei Qingxuan was faster.
As for Zhuo Yupeng, he was a Seven Star Venerate. Furthermore, he had cultivated his Profound Grade Mid-Grade Minor Reincarnation Art to the Sixth Level, which was better than many Eight Star Venerates. Of course, his absorption speed was faster than Ye Xing's Profound Grade Mid-Grade Falling Star Art's Fourth Level.
At the beginning of the absorption, everyone was fine. Ye Xing could feel that the power of the stars he absorbed from the spring water was extremely pure. It was very effective in raising his cultivation. He felt very comfortable.
Ye Xing judged that absorbing the power of the stars in the spring water would be more than enough for him to break through to the Five Star Venerate Realm. He was overjoyed.
Time passed slowly. After an hour, the fluctuation of a breakthrough came from the left.
Wei Qingxuan's Minor Reincarnation Art was indeed domineering. In just an hour, she had absorbed nearly half of the power of the stars in the spring water. She was the first to break through to the Five Star Venerate Realm.
In terms of cultivation speed, Wei Qingxuan was actually faster than Ye Xing. In five months, both of them had consolidated their cultivation to the peak of the Fourth Level. However, Wei Qingxuan was closer to the Five Star Venerate Realm.
Now, Wei Qingxuan's speed of absorbing the spring water in the Saint Pond was faster than Ye Xing's. Of course, she had broken through to the Five Star Venerate Realm earlier than Ye Xing.
When Wei Qingxuan broke through, everyone sensed the fluctuation of the star power. They looked at Wei Qingxuan with envy.
However, now that everyone was absorbing the power of the stars in the Cultivation Saint Spring, the mist above the spring covered the entire Cultivation Saint Spring. It was a vast expanse of white, but no one could see each other. They could only judge that Wei Qingxuan had made a breakthrough based on the position of the fluctuations of the stars.
For Astral Reaching Realm warriors, it would be extremely difficult for them to increase their cultivation. Although the Cultivation Saint Spring contained a lot of star power, not everyone who entered the Cultivation Saint Spring would be able to make a breakthrough. After all, different cultivation levels would require different amounts of star power, and the difficulty of making a breakthrough would be different as well.
About a quarter of an hour later, another surge of astral power showed up, indicating a breakthrough.
The gazes of all the martial artists turned towards Ye Xing's location. Although they couldn't see his figure, they knew that he had also broken through to the fifth level of the Astral Reaching Realm, becoming a five star venerable.
Ye Xing felt a sense of comfort coming from his soul. His astral energy was strengthened once more, and there was a qualitative improvement. His strength had also increased by quite a bit.
Ye Xing had only absorbed half of the star power in the pond. It seemed that after absorbing the remaining half, his cultivation would be able to consolidate to the late stage of the Five Star Venerate Realm.
Breaking through to the Five Star Venerate Realm was Ye Xing's goal. Now that he had accomplished it, he could consolidate his cultivation. Ye Xing was very satisfied with this trip to the Saint Pond, and the corner of his mouth raised into a smile.
Time continued to pass, and Ye Xing continued to absorb the star power to consolidate his cultivation.
Soon, another fluctuation of star power appeared. This fluctuation was extremely intense. Someone had broken through to the Seven Star Venerate Realm. It was a breakthrough from the mid stage to the high stage.
Ye Xing sensed the location of the astral power fluctuation and knew that it was Hei Gang who had become a Seven Star High Lord. He was the most outstanding descendant of the Hei family.
Being able to break through to the Seven Star Venerate Realm so quickly showed that Hei Gang's cultivation had already reached the limit of the Six Star Venerate Realm. Therefore, he was one step ahead of the others.
Feeling the others' cultivation breakthroughs one after another, Zhuo Yupeng was very gloomy.
He wanted to use the opportunity of the Saint Pond to break through to the Eight Star Venerate Realm in one go. However, his cultivation was originally at the late stage of the Seven Star Venerate Realm, which was too far from the Eight Star Venerate Realm. Now, he had almost absorbed all the star power in this area, but only managed to consolidate his cultivation to the peak of the Seven Star Venerate Realm.
He was still a little bit away from becoming an Eighth Star Supremacy. Furthermore, according to Zhuo Yupeng's estimation, he would need a large amount of Star Energy to break through to the Eighth Star Supremacy Realm. The Star Energy in the region before him was probably not enough for him to break through.
