As Foreign Races began attacking across the Profound Spirit Domain, Chen Fei decided to move the human race and Xuan Clan away from the exposed border.

He discovered the pool’s secret and reduced its white mist to a particulate substance, leaving him poised to use what he had learned.

• Chen Fei reviewed the risks and power of the Nine Heavens Underworld Devil Art, which he had recently fused, and recognized that its low Proficiency kept him from using its first state.

• After three hours, Chen Fei identified the pool’s white mist as the source of its spiritual essence and used the black light in his eyes to reduce it to a particulate state.

Chen Fei learned how Mystic Light Particles refined spiritual materials into concentrated spiritual essence and used the Hidden Essence Bell to reproduce the effect in Qiankun City. As he cultivated amid the rapidly increasing spiritual essence, his techniques and Rule of Mountains advanced while his aura soared.

• Chen Fei examined a Mystic Light Particle in the Xian Race's Mystic Light Pool, realized how it released spiritual essence from spirit materials, and decided he could make the particles with his Hidden Origin Bell.

• Chen Fei shattered the first bolt of heavenly lightning with his palm and absorbed it as his Essence, Qi, Spirit Soul, and Source Point Space began to transform.

Chen Fei crossed the Four-Nine Heavenly Tribulation and broke through to the Mid-Stage Creation Realm. In the void, he chose the Silence Trait over stronger combat-focused options, hoping it might help him glimpse the Time Rule.

• Chen Fei blocked the first two bolts of heavenly lightning, then entered the thunderclouds to study the rules colliding at the tribulation’s core.
