Discovering the Innate Spirit Spring, I Can Finally Cultivate Properly

The storm outside the cave gradually subsided, and Lin Yue accelerated the repair of his Spatial Domain. With the dual boost of order energy and Vitality Cycle, the domain's pale green halo regained its richness, the previous cracks completely healed, and it became even sturdier than before it was damaged. He tried to expand the domain, easily covering the cave within a hundred and fifty zhang range, and the Chaos Little Light Orb could be released flexibly. The stone hanging in his heart finally landed.

"I should go back to find Senior," Lin Yue said, picking up Kong Yu and controlling the domain to move towards Pangu's location. As soon as he left the cave, he was stunned by the scene before him—the original gray Chaos was nowhere to be seen. In its place was the nascent form of heaven and earth, with clear and turbid separation: above was a pale blue "sky curtain," dotted with tiny points of starlight; below was a deep brown "earth core," with faint patterns of mountains and rivers visible. The Heaven Opening Axe was inserted in the center of heaven and earth, emitting a faint golden light, maintaining the stability of heaven and earth.

"Is this... the result of Heaven Opening?" Lin Yue stopped to watch, his heart filled with awe. He could feel that heaven and earth were filled with pure "Innate Spirit Qi," which was more suitable for cultivation than Chaos Qi. The silver-white vortex in his dantian spun faster involuntarily, eager to absorb this energy.

Just as he was about to continue moving towards Pangu, Kong Yu suddenly flapped its wings and flew towards a valley in the earth core. Lin Yue curiously followed, and after passing through several low mountain ridges, a pool of clear spring water appeared before his eyes—the spring water was pale gold, with a warm luster, and surrounded by tender green spirit grass, exuding a rich aura of vitality. It was the rare "Innate Spirit Spring."

"Innate Spirit Spring!" Lin Yue was overjoyed. He had seen records of it in the Spirit Wood Daoist's notes. The Innate Spirit Spring was condensed from the vitality energy of Heaven Opening. It could not only quickly restore cultivation but also nourish laws, having miraculous effects on cultivation. He walked to the edge of the spring, scooped up a handful of spring water, and found it sweet and cool to the taste. The energy flowed into his body along his throat, and the vortex in his dantian instantly boiled, sweeping away the fatigue from repairing the domain.

"Finally, I can cultivate properly!" Lin Yue exclaimed excitedly. Since Heaven Opening, he had been in a state of tension, constantly dealing with impacts, and had never had a stable cultivation environment. Now that he had the Innate Spirit Spring and a relatively stable heaven and earth environment, it was the perfect time to improve his strength.

He set up a simple cultivation formation beside the spirit spring, expanded his Spatial Domain to form a protective barrier, and activated the Vitality Cycle to ensure a stable energy supply during cultivation. Kong Yu played by the spirit spring, occasionally dipping its wings into the water and sprinkling it on the surrounding spirit grass, which grew at a visible rate, its aura of vitality becoming even richer.

Lin Yue sat down cross-legged, slowly drawing the energy of the Innate Spirit Spring into his body. Unlike the ferocity of Chaos Qi, the Innate Spirit Qi was extremely gentle. After flowing into his dantian along the meridians, it automatically merged with the silver-white vortex, which continuously increased in density, steadily advancing towards the Mid-Early True Immortal stage. He also tried to channel the spirit spring energy into his Law Triangle. The perception range of the Law of Space expanded to two hundred zhang, the efficiency of the Vitality Cycle of the Law of Life increased by 30%, and the order attribute of the Law of Heaven Opening became more refined.

Midway through his cultivation, Lin Yue suddenly discovered that the Innate Spirit Spring also contained a trace of the "Law of Water"—this was a fundamental law derived from Heaven Opening, which had a natural affinity with his Law of Life. He tried to absorb this trace of law and integrate it into the Law of Life. The effect of the Vitality Cycle improved again, and he could even use the energy of the spirit spring to quickly repair damage to the external environment (such as withered spirit grass).

"It's too magical!" Lin Yue couldn't help but exclaim. He could feel his strength rapidly increasing, the silver-white color of the vortex in his dantian becoming denser, and the operation of his Law Triangle becoming smoother. He was only one step away from the Mid-Early True Immortal stage.

During this time, he did not forget to consolidate his Spatial Domain and Chaos Little Light Orb. With the energy of the Innate Spirit Spring, the defensive strength of the Spatial Domain increased by 50%, capable of withstanding a full-power attack from a Mid True Immortal cultivator. The Chaos Little Light Orb also integrated the Law of Water, and after hitting a target, it could release "Spirit Spring Water Droplets," which not only caused damage but also temporarily restrained the enemy, greatly increasing its practicality.

One day, as Lin Yue was cultivating, he suddenly felt a familiar golden light approaching—it was Pangu! Senior had appeared beside the spirit spring at some point and was looking at him with a hint of relief in his eyes.

"Senior!" Lin Yue quickly got up and bowed.

Pangu nodded slightly, pointed to the Innate Spirit Spring, then to his dantian, and said faintly, "The spirit spring will help you break through." After speaking, he left a wisp of the Law of Heaven Opening, which merged into the spirit spring. The golden light of the spring water instantly became more concentrated, and its energy purity doubled.

"Thank you, Senior!" Lin Yue was grateful, knowing that Senior was helping him break through to the Mid-Early True Immortal stage. He returned to the cultivation formation, sat down cross-legged again, and absorbed the spirit spring energy containing the Law of Heaven Opening, launching an assault towards the new realm.
