For the first time, Lu An voluntarily opened up his body to absorb the energy from the outside world.
Even though he had cultivated in the whirlpool at the bottom of the sea, Lu An did not directly absorb the energy from the outside world. Instead, he used his "spirit" to transform it into a state that he could assimilate before absorbing it. However, it was completely different this time. The surrounding Vast Universe Energy was too powerful. The degree of it could not be completely transformed by the Dark Void Energy, but it could be absorbed by his body.
This was an instinctive absorption. The Vast Universe Energy directly surged into Lu An's body. In an instant, Lu An's brows tightened as intense pain spread throughout his body!
Pain!
Extreme pain!
This pain was similar to when he was cultivating in the Ice Palace, but the degree was different. Although Lu An did not feel as much pain now, the degree of pain was actually much higher. After all, Lu An was only a Level Eight Heavenly Master at that time. Compared to his current body's endurance, it was too far away. However, despite the intense pain, Lu An's brows did not even twitch. Instead, he opened his eyes and looked at everything around him seriously.
The massive and violent energy engulfed Lu An and crazily surged into Lu An's body. At this moment, Lu An suddenly felt something.
A central point.
Suddenly, he recalled the central point when he broke through. At this moment, his entire body seemed to have become the central point and was crazily absorbing the energy around him. Lu An's dark eyes looked at everything around him. To be honest, he did not believe that everyone who came here would experience such a change. Everyone could feel the huge tearing sensation and the Vast Universe Power, but Lu An did not think that the Vast Universe Power would enter everyone's body.
Lu An seriously felt all the energy that entered his body. Although he had already tried his best to release the Dark Void Energy and use it to break down the Vast Universe Energy outside his body and then absorb it into his body, he actually had too little energy and could not compete with the violent energy around him. The Vast Universe Energy directly entered his body, changing and fusing in his body. Lu An carefully felt the process.
During the process, Lu An was shocked to discover that the Dark Void Energy seemed to be everywhere in his body. Every part of his body had a powerful absorption ability. This feeling was exactly the same as when he had broken through. In fact, the absorption rate was even more intense than before. It had already been four months since his breakthrough, and this was because his body was able to absorb a large amount of energy from the outside world.
Although the process was very painful, Lu An felt inexplicably comfortable in the depths of his body.
That's right, it was really comfortable.
Lu An could clearly feel that the essence of his body was absorbing energy and constantly filling it up. And this kind of filling once again had a real impact on his strength. It was even greater than the impact of the rocks he encountered in the depths of the sea. If the rocks in the deep sea had allowed Lu An to take two or three steps forward on the path of cultivation in the Celestial Realm, then this time, the distance he had covered so far had already exceeded that.
The absorption of energy allowed Lu An's strength to increase. This was something that shouldn't have happened. Lu An couldn't help but feel shocked and even completely dumbfounded.
This situation was very abnormal. It was impossible for one's strength to increase with the absorption of energy because the absorption of energy was only temporary. Once it was consumed, it would disappear. But now, Lu An found that after the energy was absorbed into the essence of the deepest part of his body, it seemed to be extremely difficult to disappear.
Lu An took a deep breath. While absorbing the energy, he immediately calmed himself down. As he absorbed, he felt and analyzed. However, the energy around him was too strong. Even if Lu An had the immortal pill in his body, he couldn't last long. Sure enough, since Lu An took the immortal pill, he couldn't hold on for more than twenty breaths. The energy of the immortal pill in his body was completely exhausted. He couldn't stay here any longer, or the waste of the immortal pill would be too serious.
Whoosh!
Lu An descended rapidly from the sky and landed on the plains. The process of dawn was always very fast. The sky was obviously brighter than before. More light shone on Lu An's body, illuminating Lu An's contemplative face.
Even if he stood here, even if time passed, the energy that Lu An absorbed was completely not released. Instead, it was completely retained in his body, or rather, in the deepest part of his body. At the same time, the increase in strength was also real. In just twenty breaths, Lu An felt that he had taken more than ten steps forward!
Although ten steps was still a very short and insignificant distance for the long cultivation of a Level Nine Heavenly Master, in the process, any step was something that Heaven Tier experts yearned for even in their dreams. These ten steps forward were real, and there was no sign of retreat. He stood very firmly.
Lu An stood in the same place for more than half an hour, thinking for a very long time. As for why absorbing energy could increase his strength, he could only think of a reasonable explanation, and that was …
His cultivation level had already exceeded the strength he possessed.
The so-called increase in strength came from two aspects: cultivation level and strength. Cultivation level was always the most important component. It determined a person's upper limit, and strength was the lower limit. Especially for ordinary Heavenly Masters, the ratio of the two in strength might be about the same. But for Heaven Tier elites, cultivation level was definitely more important, but strength still played the role of the absolute lower limit.
This was the only explanation that Lu An could think of. If that was really the case, in order to increase his strength, he had to go up to twenty-seven thousand feet in the sky again. At least, he had to increase his strength to the same level as his cultivation level first.
But … Lu An frowned. He was still a little worried about absorbing such a large amount of energy. He did not know if this would affect the future. But if he continued to absorb energy as he saw his strength increase, would it make it harder to advance in the future?
After thinking about it repeatedly, Lu An did not make a decision. Instead, he wanted to go back and continue thinking. Even if he decided to go up to the sky again to absorb energy, he had to find other ways to protect himself. He could not use the immortal pills like this. Otherwise, the immortal pills in his hands would not last long.
There was also the refinement of the eleven Water Divine Pills.
He could not delay the matter that he had promised Lonemoon. He had to try to refine it as soon as possible. He also looked forward to trying to refine this kind of pill. Lu An was absolutely sure that this pill would be the highest level and also the most difficult pill he had ever refined.

In an underground space in the Eight Ancient Continents.
This was a place that Lu An had just opened up. It was specially prepared for the refinement of pills. He did not choose a place that was rich in resources. During the refinement process, any extra attributes in the air would interfere with the refinement. The higher the grade of the pill, the more so. After opening up the underground space, Lu An returned home to fetch Liu Yi so that she could inform him if anything happened. After all, the refinement of pills was a very complicated and time-consuming process. But this was not seclusion after all. Especially during the early stages of experimentation, it was not as if he could not be disturbed.
Lu An took out the ring that Lonemoon had given him. The ring was still cold. Lu An immediately opened it. There were many ingredients and recipes inside.
When he saw the ingredients, Lu An was obviously stunned!
So many?!
Lonemoon had said that he had prepared many ingredients for him, but he did not say that there would be so many. When the ring was opened, the auras of the four ingredients were immediately released. Lu An could feel them clearly.
Lonemoon had said that out of the eleven ingredients for the Eleven Water Divine Pill, six of them came from the Zong Planet, which was the land under his feet. Five of them came from outside the Zong Planet. Out of the four ingredients, Lu An recognized three of them. They were the Rainbow Sea Core, the Yuan Ye Foundation Stone and the Serene Mountain Purple Green Stone. Lu An had found these three ingredients himself. They were in the Ocean Island, the Karmic Fire Sect and the deep sea. But none of the ingredients in front of him were the ones that Lu An had found back then. At the same time, the ingredients in front of him were obviously much better than the ones that Lu An had seen back then.
It was obvious that the ingredients that Lu An had found were inferior compared to the ones in front of him.
As for the fourth ingredient, it was a special kind of liquid. But this liquid was heavier than most metals. Although Lu An had never seen it before, Lu An could basically confirm that it was from the Zong Planet by sensing its aura.
In other words, the four ingredients in front of him were all from the Zong Planet. There were no ingredients from outside the Zong Planet.
Lu An, who had been looking forward to it, was somewhat disappointed. But this feeling only lasted for a moment. After taking a deep breath, he took out the recipes in the ring.
