As cultivation began, the Star God Diagram instantly took shape in Lin Yun’s sea of consciousness.
“The effect really is excellent!”
After the Spirit Spring Baptism, Lin Yun found that constructing the Star God Diagram had become much easier.
He then used his divine sense to sustain the diagram while visualising it. The sustaining process was also considerably easier than before.
One must remember that humans were innately far less talented than the elf clan when it came to divine sense cultivation.
Yet the Spirit Spring Baptism had allowed Lin Yun to surpass the natural limits that humans faced in divine sense training.
“Since constructing and sustaining the upper volume of the Star God Canon is now relatively straightforward, I might as well try studying the lower volume,” Lin Yun thought to himself.
Having made his decision, Lin Yun summoned the complete version of the Star God Canon and opened it.
The lower volume consisted of another star diagram.
However, compared to the upper volume, this diagram was vastly more complex.
When Lin Yun had first learned the upper volume, its diagram alone had given him a severe headache, and the process had been far from easy.
If he had not yet undergone the Spirit Spring Baptism, a single glance at the lower volume would have been enough to convince him that he could never master it.
“Now that I have received the Spirit Spring Baptism and my sea of consciousness has been greatly expanded, I can give the lower volume a try,” Lin Yun said, a trace of anticipation on his face.
The Star God Canon was the elf clan’s most precious divine sense cultivation method, and the lower volume represented the very essence of that treasure.
All the Extreme Realm powerhouses of the elf clan cultivated the lower volume.
With his mind set, Lin Yun began studying the diagram.
Because he had already mastered the upper volume, he had some foundation. Moreover, the lower volume diagram built upon and deepened the upper one, so it did not take Lin Yun long to understand its structure.
Next, he started attempting to construct this extraordinarily complex diagram within his own sea of consciousness.
This was the truly difficult part.
His first attempt soon ended in failure due to mistakes.
Lin Yun did not grow impatient. He immediately began a second attempt, then a third, a fourth, and so on.
After two years of relentless trying.
Finally, Lin Yun successfully constructed the lower volume diagram in his sea of consciousness.
Those two years of constant construction had also served to temper his divine sense continuously.
Once the diagram was formed, Lin Yun continued to use his divine sense to maintain its state within his sea of consciousness and to visualise it.
Because the lower volume diagram was far more intricate, sustaining it was much harder, yet the benefits it yielded were correspondingly greater.
The Cold Ice Jade that Lin Yun wore also continued to take effect.
Zi Tong had given him the Cold Ice Jade the last time he had come to the elf clan to rescue people before leaving. It had already played a significant role when he cultivated the upper volume.
Now, while training in the lower volume and wearing the jade, it provided equally valuable assistance.
After a full three hours of cultivation, Lin Yun finally paused to rest.
Previously, even when wearing the Cold Ice Jade and cultivating the upper volume, he had been able to manage at most two hours before needing a break.
The lower volume was more difficult, so logically each session should have been shorter. Yet, thanks to the Spirit Spring Baptism, his cultivation efficiency with the lower volume was actually higher than it had been with the upper volume.
Afterward, Lin Yun took out one of the supplementary heavenly treasures to further aid his divine sense training.
…
Three months later.
The fluctuations in Lin Yun’s sea of consciousness finally settled after undergoing drastic changes.
Lin Yun opened his eyes and released his divine sense once more.
His divine sense realm had broken through the bottleneck and reached the first order of the Immeasurable level.
The Spirit Spring Baptism had already loosened that bottleneck. Combined with cultivating the lower volume of the Star God Canon, it enabled his divine sense to breakthrough smoothly into the first order of the Immeasurable level.
Without the baptism and the lower volume, Lin Yun might have remained stuck at the ninth order of the Returning Origin level for an unknown length of time, or perhaps never broken through at all.
“Now that I possess the complete divine sense cultivation system, having reached the first order of the Immeasurable level, continuing to train in this way will make attaining the ninth order merely a question of time!” Lin Yun said with a confident smile.
“I’ll end this seclusion here for now. I can cultivate more later.” Lin Yun stood up and left the One Thought Bright Heart Tower.
