Chapter 511
Qingzhou, Ghost Ridge Palace!
Su Jie stood in front of the main hall at the Mountain Gate.
Before the hall, on the open ground, there was a deep pit leading straight into the depths underground.
Standing around were the Sect Master of Ghost Ridge Palace, Zhang Junwei, Tang Peiqing, Taoist Qiu and other elders, along with numerous disciples, all staring intently at the pit.
Su Jie had returned from Qing Province three days ago, and after briefly discussing the battle situation with Zhang Junwei, he tirelessly continued to work for the development of Ghost Ridge Palace. The current pit before them was Su Jie's creation.
Suddenly, a commotion came from the pit.
The thousand-hand centipede, covered in mud, crawled out of the pit, shook its body, and made a hissing sound towards Su Jie.
Su Jie smiled and said to Zhang Junwei, "Sect Master, it's done."
"Really, let me see."
Zhang Junwei quickly walked to the edge of the pit, where he saw a glow of Spiritual Energy like fireflies emanating from the depth of the pit.
That was the underground Spirit Vein being unearthed, revealing itself to the world.
Su Jie took out the Dragon Vein Crystal Fruit from his storage bag and tossed it into the underground pit.
When the Dragon Vein Crystal Fruit kept descending and fell into the Spirit Vein.
It was as if the most dazzling divine light erupted from underground, forming an incomparably rich Spiritual Energy in a five-colored glow, spreading like a fountain from the ground beneath, spreading towards the four directions of the Mountain Gate of Ghost Ridge Palace.
Above the Sky Dome of Ghost Ridge Palace, an illusory True Dragon silhouette appeared, with lifelike scale armor, prominent dragon horns, and icy dragon eyes.
Legend has it that the origin of Dragon Veins came from the corpses of deceased True Dragons, deeply buried underground, year after year, being permeated by the underground Spirit Veins, eventually forming Dragon Veins in the world.
Previously, Su Jie did not believe such rumors, but now seeing the illusory True Dragon in the sky dome, he doubted a little.
Before the main hall, every cultivator who saw this illusory True Dragon, all gasped, a powerful pressure covered over, some Outer Disciples with weaker cultivation were even directly pressed to the ground, unable to stand up at all.
However, the Secret Realm Elders were the opposite, as soon as this illusory True Dragon appeared, each one's eyes shone brightly.
Only the elders could feel the existence of this illusory True Dragon, which contained a trace of Dao comprehension that other disciples could not perceive. Those in the Secret Realm who had cultivated a Primordial Spirit and could connect with the Tao River could clearly understand the personal benefit of this illusory True Dragon.
"Everyone, sit and cultivate."
Zhang Junwei said, then sat cross-legged himself.
This was the first activation of the underground Spirit Vein, influenced by the Dragon Vein Crystal Fruit, causing the Spirit Vein to transform into a Dragon Vein.
The underground Spirit Vein is the river of Spiritual Energy in the Tianyuan World, while the Dragon Vein is even more the root of Spiritual Energy. When the Spirit Vein transforms into a Dragon Vein, to some extent, it is the manifestation of the principles of heaven and earth.
Cultivating and comprehending here could greatly help one's cultivation growth and breakthrough in realm.
The surrounding disciples and elders all sat cross-legged, the seating position varying with identity and status.
Su Jie also sat cross-legged, with his status placing him naturally in the central position, constantly feeling the vast and mighty pure Spiritual Energy sweeping across, with every breath, his cells cheered, making his body particularly excited and active.
On his Primordial Spirit, Su Jie's Primordial Spirit continuously observed the illusory True Dragon in the Sky Dome, an endless stream of complex knowledge pouring into Su Jie's mind.
This knowledge was all related to the Dao, like universal formulas, directly allowing one to understand the Cultivation Techniques, Magic, Artifacts and other related matters from their essence.
Of course, because of the incomplete rules of the Dao, the human Primordial Spirit couldn't bear it, so each person could harvest something different based on their individual comprehension.
Like Su Jie, an elder of the God Unification Level, who could directly observe with his Primordial Spirit, the Secret Realm Elders and disciples could only observe with their naked eyes, otherwise, they risked damaging their Primordial Spirit.
Su Jie slowly closed his eyes, devoting himself to cultivation.
Time passed minute by minute.
In just one hour, changes began to occur.
"I... I have broken through, I've advanced to the Sixth Level of Yunling Realm, haha, I can become an Inner Sect disciple now."
"I've broken through three levels, I feel like I have a lot more knowledge in my mind!"
"Hahaha, I've succeeded in breaking through to the Secret Realm, thanks to the Holy Son for bringing the Dragon Vein, which was a huge help."
Some of the first to awaken disciples were overwhelmingly delighted, seemingly mad, with some even breaking through three levels in Yunling Realm, and some inner disciples at Yunling Realm directly broke through to the Secret Realm, stepping up from a disciple to an elder.
More and more disciples awoke at the scene, even some with poor comprehension didn't break through, but their Spiritual Power increased significantly, not without gains.
The illusory True Dragon in the Sky Dome grew fainter, and after several more hours, the high ranks of Ghost Ridge Palace also awakened, opening their eyes from the miraculous Sudden Enlightenment.
"The realm increased by one level."
Zhang Junwei lowered his head to look at himself, his face beaming with joy. The cultivation of the Taoist Platform Realm required much painstaking effort to break through one level, yet unexpectedly, today, a single Sudden Enlightenment achieved a realm breakthrough.
Rumble!
The sky suddenly covered with layers of dark clouds, with lightning like silver snakes shuttling within, striking down towards a spot in the main hall.
The nearby elders and disciples were startled and scattered away.
