7: Breaking through the divine spring, a vision appears

Qin Wushuang and the other Elders outside the Pure Lotus Pond were somewhat flustered. How long had Qin Ding been inside?

It hadn't even been fifteen minutes, yet he had already opened his Life Palace. Not only had he opened his Life Palace, but it was the most mysterious Mythical-grade Life Palace.

A Mythical-grade Life Palace had not appeared on the Cang Continent for a long time.

Thinking back to their recent discussion about whether Qin Ding would open his Life Palace in a month or half a month, this was a blatant slap in the face.

“Family Head, I remember you have a Legendary-grade Life Palace, right?” an Elder asked Qin Wushuang.

“That’s right. I remember when I opened my Legendary-grade Life Palace, it caused quite a stir in the Qin Family and garnered countless praises.”

As one of his proudest achievements, Qin Wushuang spoke of it now without any hint of pride.

“However, my son has opened a Mythical-grade Life Palace, and in such a short time at that.”

However, Qin Wushuang quickly reacted. Qin Ding was his own son, and he was instantly filled with pride.

Opening his Life Palace in such a short time was simply a miracle.

“Does the Innate Dao Body also have the miraculous effect of accelerating Cultivation?”

An Elder was very confused at this moment. The main reason was that Qin Ding had opened his Life Palace too quickly, which was truly astonishing.

“The opening of the Life Palace does not solely depend on the rate of Spiritual Qi absorption. The most important thing is whether one can find the trick to opening the Life Palace. Perhaps with the comprehension ability of the Innate Dao Body, he was able to find the knack for opening the Life Palace in an instant. In that case, it’s not surprising that he could open his Life Palace so quickly.”

An Elder explained.

This Elder’s explanation was reluctantly accepted by the others.

“Family Head, just look at the Saint.”

At this moment, Fourteenth Elder was observing Qin Ding’s movements inside through a Spiritual Mirror.

Inside the Pure Lotus Pond, an endless stream of Spiritual Qi poured into Qin Ding’s body. After entering his body, this Spiritual Qi was almost instantly refined into Spiritual Power, which then filled his Life Palace.

“Qin Ding is automatically absorbing Spiritual Qi. Fourteenth Elder, quickly activate the Formation.”

Qin Wushuang’s eyesight was incredibly sharp; he instantly saw that Qin Ding’s Physique was automatically absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi.

Fourteenth Elder did not dare to delay and immediately activated the Formation. They saw an endless stream of Spiritual Qi being absorbed into Qin Ding’s body.

Qin Ding’s Aura grew stronger and stronger. In just a few dozen breaths, he advanced from the Early Stage of the Life Palace Realm to the Middle Stage of the Life Palace Realm.

The Elders watching nearby were also somewhat dumbfounded. It was already fast enough that he opened his Life Palace so quickly; was breaking through also this simple?

It only took a few dozen breaths to advance from the Early Stage of the Life Palace Realm to the Middle Stage of the Life Palace Realm.

The Elders thought about their own experiences back then. It probably took them one or two months to go from the Early Stage of the Life Palace Realm to the Late Stage of the Life Palace Realm. This speed was considered relatively fast, as those who could become Elders undoubtedly had excellent talent when they were young.

Of course, now in front of Qin Ding, their own talent was like trash, not worth mentioning.

“Is this Cultivation? It feels very simple.”

Qin Ding formed hand Seals, feeling slightly bored. The endless Spiritual Qi was directly refined into Spiritual Power.

This should be what the System referred to as Spiritual PowerInitiation (initiation).

Otherwise, even if he were to Cultivate personally, the speed at which Spiritual Qi was refined into Spiritual Power would definitely not be this fast.

Of course, this Spiritual PowerInitiation (initiation) did not end. They saw the Spiritual Power within Qin Ding’s body continuously spreading, and his Life Palace was also being transformed.

The Life Palace is merely the lowest form for a Cultivator to store Spiritual Power. The next higher form is called the Divine Spring, which is also the second Realm of Cultivation.

While Qin Ding was contemplating, his Realm advanced again, reaching the Late Stage of the Life Palace Realm, and this also happened within a quarter of an hour.

Upon reaching the Late Stage of the Life Palace Realm, Qin Ding’s Spiritual PowerInitiation (initiation) still seemed to be ongoing, with an endless stream of Spiritual Qi continuously pouring in.

“This isn’t going to be a Breakthrough to the Divine Spring, is it?”

An Elder couldn’t help but twitch his mouth, his eyelids jumping.

“It looks like it should be,” another Elder became numb at this moment. They had seen too many record-breaking myths created by Qin Ding along the way, and by now, they felt a sense of numbness.

“Saint’s Breakthrough is so fast, will it cause an unstable Foundation?” Fourteenth Elder was somewhat worried.

Although fast Cultivation is a good thing, if Cultivation is too fast, it can also lead to an unstable Foundation, which would have a significant impact on one’s future, making it not worth the gain.

“It shouldn’t. This is Qin Ding’s Physique, autonomously absorbing Spiritual Qi. I didn’t expect the Innate Dao Body to have this function.”

Qin Wushuang also sighed. Some peculiar Physiques, when first beginning to Cultivate, would automatically absorb Spiritual Qi and quickly refine it into Spiritual Power, allowing the owner of the Physique to have a period of rapid growth.

He just hadn’t expected the Innate Dao Body to have this function. It wasn’t recorded in the ancient texts either.

However, Qin Wushuang quickly dismissed it. The Innate Dao Body had not appeared for too long, and they could only gain some understanding through ancient texts, which could not be entirely trusted. Naturally, there were things they didn't know.

After a while longer, a golden light burst forth from behind Qin Ding, accompanied by a sound like a tsunami, signaling Qin Ding’s official entry into the Divine Spring Realm.

At this moment, behind Qin Ding, golden light radiated, with lightning and thunder, and the sound of a tsunami, a peculiar phenomenon bloomed.

“Is this the Divine Spring phenomenon?”

Qin Wushuang and the others had serious expressions. They knew that some extremely talented individuals would experience phenomena when entering the Divine Spring Realm, and Qin Ding was clearly one of them.

After Qin Ding entered the Divine Spring Realm, the Spiritual PowerInitiation (initiation) also ended.

“It’s over already?”

Qin Ding felt a bit unfulfilled. How great it would be if his cultivation could just increase without him having to Cultivate himself.

However, one must face reality.

As Qin Ding prepared to stand up and end his Cultivation session, Qin Wushuang’s voice echoed in his ear.

“Qin Ding, don’t come out yet. Stabilize your Realm.”

Upon hearing Qin Wushuang’s voice transmission, Qin Ding wanted to say that his Realm was very stable and didn’t need to be stabilized. However, after a second thought, if he broke through to the Divine Spring Realm so quickly and went out immediately, it would be too shocking. He indeed needed to pretend to Cultivate in the Pure Lotus Pond for a while.

When Qin Ding had Cultivated for ten days, Qin Wushuang brought him out.

“Qin Ding, how do you feel your Foundation is now?” Qin Wushuang asked Qin Ding.

“It’s very stable,” Qin Ding said.

“Punch me with all your strength,” Qin Wushuang said seriously.

“Such a perverse request?” Qin Ding was stunned for a moment, but then he thought that given the vast difference in Realm between himself and Qin Wushuang, his full-strength punch probably wouldn't even tickle the latter.

So, Qin Ding directly activated all the Spiritual Power in his body and threw a punch.

Qin Wushuang caught it with one hand, and then his arm trembled slightly.

“How can he be so strong?”

Qin Wushuang’s face was filled with shock. His arm had just trembled. Of course, the main reason for his arm trembling was that he had only used the strength of the Spring Profound Realm, sealing off his other powers. However, he still possessed the peak strength of the Spring Profound Realm, yet Qin Ding, who was only in the Early Stage of the Spring Profound Realm, was actually stronger than the peak strength of the Spring Profound Realm.
