Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

At the same time.

Mysterious energy surged into the sea of consciousness, enveloping the diamond-shaped crystal within.

Upon entering the consciousness space, Lin Zheyu also saw diamond-shaped rule fragments in his sea of consciousness, constantly emitting the profound power of spatial rules.

After a few breaths.

Lin Zheyu suddenly opened his eyes, filled with endless joy.

It worked!

"As expected, it’s feasible!"

Lin Zheyu was extremely delighted.

The rule fragments contained profound, vast, and complex rule Tao rhyme, but the fragments only lasted for a day.

No matter how talented a cultivator was, it was impossible to comprehend them all.

However, Lin Zheyu could use mysterious source power to cheat, indirectly extending the time to comprehend the rule fragments.

"Continue!"

"But before that, the cultivation technique needs to be improved. The previously grasped spatial rules were too shallow, making the cultivation technique seem a bit immature."

Lin Zheyu secretly pondered.

As his thoughts slightly moved, the data in his consciousness momentarily blurred and then became clear again.

[Heavenly Dao Rewards the Diligent]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source Power: 13

Skills:

Shrinking Earth Skill 1.0 (Not Initiated)

Mixed Element Concealing Breath Skill (Perfection)

Primordial Golden Body (Second Level: 100%)

With preparations complete, Lin Zheyu sent out his thoughts: ’Use one unit of source power to cultivate Shrinking Earth Skill 1.0.’

A familiar sensation arose.

Lin Zheyu’s spirit wavered, entering the consciousness space, beginning endless cultivation, comprehension, and enhancement.

Time slowly passed.

Lin Zheyu’s mastery of the spatial rules grew increasingly profound, especially in the power of rules concerning the Shrinking Earth Skill.

This cultivation technique, while not containing particularly profound martial or immortal knowledge, largely depended on Lin Zheyu’s mastery of the spatial rules for successful cultivation.

The more proficient with the spatial rules, the more powerful the Shrinking Earth Skill becomes.

"Hoo~~"

Lin Zheyu slowly opened his eyes, taking a deep breath and exhaling stale air.

His eyes were bloodshot, filled with deep fatigue.

Comprehending the power of rules greatly drained the spirit and soul, and using just ten units of source power made Lin Zheyu feel extremely exhausted.

"Such a rare opportunity, continue..."

Lin Zheyu mused internally.

With a flip of his right hand, the depleted spirit stone in his hand was effortlessly crushed into powder, and two new spirit stones appeared in his hand.

Just as Lin Zheyu was about to proceed with the next stage of cultivation and enhancement, a crisp cracking sound suddenly echoed in his consciousness.

The diamond-shaped crystal floating above the sea of consciousness suddenly developed tiny cracks.

Then, with a cracking sound, the diamond-shaped crystal vanished like a bubble.

"Hmm?"

"What’s going on? Wasn’t it supposed to last for a day?"

Lin Zheyu was momentarily stunned, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.

But soon, Lin Zheyu was at ease.

The use of source power caused the energy contained within the rule fragments to be exhausted ahead of time.

[Heavenly Dao Rewards the Diligent]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source Power: 4

Skills:

Mixed Element Concealing Breath Skill (Perfection)

Shrinking Earth Skill 10.0 (Perfection)

Primordial Golden Body (Second Level: 100%)

Lin Zheyu looked at the data in his consciousness; only 4 units of source power remained, and the Shrinking Earth Skill had been improved to the tenth version.

"Ten units of source power for ten versions of the cultivation technique; this is sufficient."

Lin Zheyu remarked internally.

Looking at the data in his consciousness, with a thought, the version number after Shrinking Earth Skill disappeared.

[Heavenly Dao Rewards the Diligent]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Shrinking Earth Skill (Perfection)

Mixed Element Concealing Breath Skill (Perfection)

Primordial Golden Body (Second Level: 100%)

"It looks much more comfortable this way."

Lin Zheyu muttered with a smile.

Unfortunately, now is not the right time, otherwise Lin Zheyu would have really wanted to test the true power of this newly cultivated Shrinking Earth Skill.

With the corner of his eyes, he glanced at the others; everyone was immersed in comprehending the rule fragments.

"It’s still early; now is not the time to leave. Continue to understand the Barbarian Totem."

Lin Zheyu whispered to himself.

His right hand once again pressed against the totem of the barbarian corpse, and the powerful spiritual sense flowed through his arm, merging into the totem.

The current Lin Zheyu was no longer the same as a few breaths ago.

Having used ten units of source power to comprehend the rule fragments, Lin Zheyu’s mastery of the spatial rules had reached an astonishing level.

Lin Zheyu didn’t possess the cultivation technique of the Barbarian Race, nor did he know much about their cultivation knowledge; conventional research methods would be very difficult.

Thus, he sought an alternative path, experimenting and verifying against the totems on the barbarian body using the spatial rules he mastered.

The totem on this barbarian corpse held significant research value for Lin Zheyu.

If he could figure out how to integrate the power of spatial rules into the totem, Lin Zheyu could incorporate his mastery of spatial rules into the Golden Body Dharma Aspect.

Time slowly passed.

One does not notice the passage of time while cultivating.

In the blink of an eye, a day had passed.

Boom!

A deafening roar echoed, and Lei Yongtao’s wild laughter reverberated through the Demon God Barrier.

"Haha, I did it!"

Lei Yongtao was surrounded by dazzling lightning, with his hands on his hips, laughing heartily and feeling extremely triumphant.

Lin Zheyu opened his eyes as the barbarian corpse on the ground suddenly disappeared.

He smiled slightly, standing up discreetly, appearing very modest.

"Have you stabilized the Six-Thunder Pattern Golden Elixir?"

Tu Yuan asked excitedly, turning his head with a smile.

"Hehe, I’m eighty percent confident!"

Lei Yongtao chuckled, "And you, how’s your comprehension?"

"I didn’t fare as well, my gains weren’t as significant as yours."

Tu Yuan shook his head, but his face showed no disappointment, with a hint of excitement lurking beneath.
