Chapter 462: The Great Impact! The Great Transformation!
Countless Law Forces streamed down from the "Green Spirit Bottle," a Mysterious Heavenly Divine Artifact suspended high in the void, flowing into the Law Sea below.
The Law Sea glimmered with the radiance of Laws, and the Law Pathway's water waves flowed.
Over five thousand martial artists, scattered around the numerous Qianye Platforms floating above the Law Sea with the "Green Spirit Bottle" at their center.
And there, at the very heart of these Qianye Platforms, were Ye Chen, the Little Provincial Princess, Tian Li, and others!
The moment Lanxi God King declared that the True Qi cultivation on Qianye Platform had officially begun, the Law Spirit Thunder that had not yet struck the Qianye Platforms surged violently forth, slashing towards everyone once more.
This time, it was not the same as the earlier Law Spirit Thunder during the selection and cultivation on Qianye Platform.
Previously, during the crossing of the Thunder Sea, the slashing of the Law Spirit Thunder was merely a test for their selection of the Qianye Platforms and did not enable these martial artists to cultivate True Qi.
But now, as they truly entered the second step of cultivation, the Law Spirit Thunder that struck them—emerging not just from the "Green Spirit Bottle," but also nurtured within the endless Law Pathway waves of the Law Sea, rising into the void.
These Law Spirit Thunders contained endless True Qi Power and Law Forces.
As long as you could withstand the impact of a single Law Spirit Thunder, numerous Fundamental Law Powers from within the Law Spirit Thunder could be absorbed into the Qi Sea to aid in cultivating True Qi, the Laws, and breaking through realms.
Upon hearing Lanxi God King's voice declaring the beginning of cultivation and seeing the endless rolling Law Spirit Thunder, a gleam sparked in Ye Chen's eyes as he stared directly at the Law Spirit Thunder slashing towards him.
"These Law Spirit Thunders are not just tests but opportunities!" he thought.
"As long as I can withstand their onslaught, my True Qi Combat Power will keep soaring!"
"With that in mind, let them come!"
Ye Chen instantly rose from his seated position, boldly facing the barrage of Law Spirit Thunder.
At the same time, he swept his sleeve, and various treasures appeared on the Qianye Platform in front of him.
Among these treasures were the "Virtual Gold Holy Spirit Fruit" and other five-elemental Treasures that Ye Chen had obtained from a major auction, which were beneficial to the cultivation of the Five Great Divine Arts.
There were also the "Void Sky Quintessence Fruit," which greatly aided in harmonizing the Five Great Law Forces obtained from the Five Elements Mountain, and the "Primordial Extreme Spiritual Fluid" for restoring True Qi and other Treasures he had found in the Divine Heritage Cave.
Preparing to begin True Qi cultivation, Ye Chen laid out these Treasures in advance.
As Ye Chen readied himself to withstand the onslaught of Law Spirit Thunder and begin cultivating True Qi Techniques, a massive cyan thunderbolt, like an immense python, burst out directly above him from the "Green Spirit Bottle." It then transformed into a terrifyingly large serpent that struck down swiftly towards the top of Ye Chen's head.
This cyan thunderbolt, over twenty meters thick, was like a thunderstorm sweeping ferociously towards him.
Seeing this cyan thunderbolt, Ye Chen was not panicked but rather pleased.
During the previous crossing of the Thunder Sea, he had faced even more terrifying Law Spirit Thunder; this thunderbolt, he feared not. Ye Chen was eager to see what kind of Law Forces this thunderbolt would bestow upon him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In an instant, the thunderbolt struck Ye Chen. He did not use the Five Great Divine Arts to shatter it but let it touch his body at the very moment, causing the four hundred and five Five Apertures Rotating Pills within his Qi Sea to tremble, their Divine Pill Law Patterns all flashing.
Ye Chen intended to endure the thunderbolt's power with his body!
As the cyan thunderbolt thundered into Ye Chen's body, he felt a surging force nearly bursting his Qi Sea, swiftly merging into it.
Within this cyan thunderbolt was an unbelievable amount of Wood Element Law Pathway and Wood Element True Qi.
Others would dare not directly absorb the power of the Spirit Thunder, but Ye Chen cultivated the "Taiyuan Chapter," the third chapter of the Primordial Star Scripture, and he needed to cultivate as many as nine hundred and ninety-nine Taiyuan Divine Pills before fusing them into one.
Ye Chen's Qi Sea, whether in terms of the number of Rotating Pills or their quality, far surpassed countless others, even exceeding numerous Heavenly Saints.
He had enough confidence to withstand the thunderbolt's strike.
As the cyan thunderbolt's incredible Wood Element True Qi and Wood Element Law Pathway entered Ye Chen's Qi Sea, the four hundred and five Five Apertures Rotating Pills within absorbed these forces. At the same time, new Five Apertures Rotating Pills materialized amidst the spreading Starry Fog within his Qi Sea and the disturbance of the Law Spirit Thunder's True Qi, popping into existence with "pop, pop, pop."
Four hundred and six! Four hundred and seven!
This single thunderbolt increased the number of Rotating Pills within Ye Chen's body to a total of four hundred and thirteen.
Although most of these Rotating Pills were condensed with the help of the preexisting Starry Fog within the Qi Sea, for otherwise it would be impossible to form perfect Five Apertures Rotating Pills.
But their rapid formation was greatly aided by this thunderbolt's Law Spirit Thunder.
Before Ye Chen could even rejoice, more thunderbolts, one after another, continued to slash down towards him.
These thunderbolts varied in type; there were fire-red ones resembling flames of the Fire Element Law Thunder, and even gold shimmering golden thunderbolts!
While enduring these thunderbolt strikes, Ye Chen inhaled deeply, drawing several "Void Sky Quintessence Fruits" into his Qi Sea to start harmonizing the five major Virtual Heavenly Law Forces surging into him.
When faced with a more terrifying thunderbolt strike that he simply could not assimilate, Ye Chen no longer resisted with his body but used the increasingly powerful Five Great Divine Arts Techniques to shatter these Law Spirit Thunders and to absorb the manageable forces.
Ye Chen truly entered the state of True Qi cultivation within this Law Sea.
While Ye Chen was cultivating, the Little Lolita Princess seated next to him also entered into a state of cultivation.
The Little Provincial Princess, only twelve years old and yet to reach maturity, was merely at the early stage of the Rotating Pill Realm.
But as she entered cultivation, she became incredibly serious, watching the Law Spirit Thunder slashing down towards her from the sky with her little face, like Ye Chen, she also activated countless Treasure Refining items.
The Little Provincial Princess came from the East Province, the youngest daughter of the East Territory King and his most cherished child.
Her specific trip to the Minor Pole Sky for cultivation was to better compensate for the weakness in her True Qi, a sign of life; naturally, the East Territory King prepared countless treasures for her.
Any one of these treasures, if taken to a lower realm, would be enough to incite frantic looting from countless people.
Yet, in front of the Little Provincial Princess, she used them as if they were common items.
In addition to the Treasure Refining items, the Little Provincial Princess also produced many treasures capable of withstanding the bombardment of Law Spirit Thunder; apart from the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact "Xuni Bell," the Little Provincial Princess also used other magical treasures to disperse and absorb the power of the Spirit Thunder.
With the assistance of the magical treasures and use of the Treasure Refining items, the Little Provincial Princess also entered a state of cultivation.
Unlike Ye Chen, who cultivated the five great Heavenly Void Laws, the Little Provincial Princess cultivated a method of True Qi Law different from the thirty-three continents, one of the nine great Heavenly Void Laws.
Among these, there were even the Ice Element Heavenly Void Law and the Thunder and Lightning Heavenly Void Law.
The Law Spirit Thunder, which cleaved towards the Little Provincial Princess, also included Ice Element Law Thunder and Thunder and Lightning Law Thunder.
The Sea of Laws was indeed a marvelous Law Pathway, created by Lord Yun who used the Mysterious Heavenly Divine Artifact "Green Spirit Bottle" to collect the Fundamental Law Power of countless continents within the Starry Fog.
It could even generate different kinds of Law Spirit Thunder to strike the cultivating martial artists, depending on their unique cultivation in Heavenly Void Laws.
Truly a Divine Marvel.
Not only Ye Chen and the Little Provincial Princess, but all the more than five thousand martial artists on the thousands of Qianye Platforms entered the state of True Qi Cultivation.
Naturally, many of these people couldn't cultivate as effortlessly as Ye Chen and the Little Provincial Princess.
In their struggle against Law Spirit Thunder, they suffered immensely, yet when they sensed the Law Force entering their bodies, they were also immensely overjoyed.
In the midst of suffering and joy, they were also enhancing their strength.
Of course, there were martial artists who, from the start, couldn't withstand the sudden and immense force of the Law Spirit Thunder; after several attacks, they were directly blasted off the Qianye Platform into the Sea of Laws.
In the end, they were swept back to the edge of the Sea of Laws, ending their opportunity to cultivate, eliminated from the proceedings.

At the edge of the Sea of Laws, as day by day of cultivation went by, the number of eliminated martial artists increased.
Following elimination, these martial artists could only stand beside figures like Divine Venerable Hong Zhu, Lan Xi God King, God King Wucan, and God King Lei Yun to watch others cultivate.
Meanwhile, the gazes of shore-side powerhouses like Divine Venerable Hong Zhu, Lan Xi God King, and others, were almost entirely fixed on the Little Provincial Princess, and also, on Ye Chen.
Only occasionally would their Divine Eye shift to look at the four juniors of the four Great Generals.
As for those young people from the Divine Kingdoms and the martial artists from the lower realms, the number of times they managed to catch the attention of these strong individuals was countable on one's fingers.
One month of Qianye Platform cultivation in the Sea of Laws, time continued to pass.
When ten days of cultivation time had passed, more than five thousand martial artists who entered the Sea of Laws were reduced to over three thousand.
When over twenty days had passed, only more than one thousand remained.
And by the time the last seven days arrived, within the Sea of Laws, only about a dozen people were still cultivating on the Qianye Platform!
Among these dozen, aside from Ye Chen, all the martial artists from the lower realm had been eliminated; even Fang Hua, whom Ye Chen knew well, couldn't withstand the bombardment of the Law Spirit Thunder on the eighteenth day and was eliminated.
The remaining dozen included only Ye Chen, the Little Provincial Princess, the four juniors of the four Great Generals - Tian Li, Zhao Xin, Meng Qi, Hu Lin - and a few young people from the Divine Kingdoms, still persevering.
At the edge of the Sea of Laws.
Fang Hua gazed at Ye Chen, who was still cultivating on the Qianye Platform in the deepest part, and felt emotional, "I only cultivated for eighteen days, and I've gained so much that even the three Laws that were always my weakness have greatly improved, my realm's bottleneck has started to loosen, and there are even signs of a breakthrough."
"The deeper into the cultivation of the Sea of Laws, the greater the gains. Ye Chen has been cultivating on the core, most precious Qianye Platform for so long, his gains must be tens or even hundreds of times greater than mine."
"Under such circumstances, he hasn't yet made a breakthrough to the latter stage of the Rotating Pill? How can a single minor realm increase accommodate so much power?!"
Fang Hua was shocked.
The well-informed him knew that Ye Chen must be cultivating a tremendously powerful and incomprehensible Cultivation Technique.
While Fang Hua was shocked, his guess was very accurate; Ye Chen had now truly entered a major breakthrough and transformative process.
Although it seemed Ye Chen was trying to break through from the intermediate to the latter stage of the Rotating Pill, he was also cultivating the third chapter of the Primordial Star Scripture, the Taiyuan Chapter. Just to cultivate a Taiyuan Divine Pill, he had to first cultivate a total of nine hundred and ninety-nine Five Apertures Rotating Pills.
And now, after twenty-three days of cultivation, the number of Five Apertures Rotating Pills in Ye Chen's Qi Sea had astonishingly reached nine hundred and ninety-eight!
