Spiritual Power Conversion
Xiao Han followed the Bei Ming Long Kun directly to a strange space. "This is..."
Upon arriving here, even the most oblivious person can sense the overwhelming Spiritual Energy in the air. The moment they enter, they feel much more awake, whether it's the deep pool before them or the mist that forms various small animals...
Everything visible to the naked eye is uniformly formed from Spiritual Energy.
Bei Ming Long Kun smiled, his tone tinged with pride, "This is the only location of an Eighth Level Spirit Gathering Array in my Northern Azure Spiritual Academy."
"Spiritual Power Conversion requires a place with abundant Spiritual Energy, and this Eighth Level Spirit Gathering Array is the perfect fit."
"You are welcome to use it."
The efficiency of Spiritual Power Conversion largely depends on the abundance of Spiritual Energy in the surrounding environment. With the help of the Spirit Gathering Array, Xiao Han's Spiritual Power Conversion time will be greatly shortened, and the time to recover his original strength will naturally be shortened accordingly.
Xiao Han, knowing the intricacies of the matter, was moved and said, "I thank you for your help."
Bei Ming Long Kun smiled faintly, "Your Excellency should focus on completing the Spiritual Power Conversion as soon as possible. We can discuss the rest later!"
He then handed Xiao Han a jade talisman, saying, "This can help you activate the Spirit Gathering Array."
Xiao Han took the item and turned to step into the Spirit Gathering Array. He then suddenly became alert, spreading his Soul Strength. Ice Emperor, speaking suspiciously through the ring, said, "Isn't something strange about this Northern Azure Spiritual Academy?"
The other party's attitude just now was unbelievably polite. "Check if there's anything wrong here." Xiao Han was also feeling uneasy. It was obvious that the other party had ulterior motives!
Finally...
After their joint efforts, they discovered...
"There's definitely no problem," they both affirmed.
Although the authenticity of the method of Spiritual Power Conversion is unknown, based on their experience and eyesight, they could not see any problems. Moreover, this place is a geomantically auspicious location, a place where Spiritual Energy gathers, so cultivating here would definitely be twice as effective.
"Then let's cultivate!" Xiao Han was already barely able to suppress the restless power within him. He found a place with the most abundant Spiritual Energy, sat down cross-legged, and then the Storage Ring in his hand lit up, and a completely black puppet appeared beside him.
It was a rather unsuccessful work by Xiao Han, but given the circumstances, it had to be made do. Even so, the puppet, which had just stepped into the Dou Sheng realm, was something that the academy could not do anything about.
Since the puppets do not use Dou Qi and fight purely with their physical bodies, their combat power is not affected, which is fortunate amidst misfortune.
While Xiao Han was Spiritual Power Conversion in the Spirit Gathering Array, Bei Ming Long Kun and Dean Tai Cang were having a conversation outside.
"Lord Bei Ming, do we really have to go this far?" Tai Cang asked, frowning.
His plan was to teach Xiao Han the method of Spiritual Power Conversion and provide him with a Seventh Level Spirit Gathering Array. However, Bei Ming Long Kun was so generous that he lent out Eighth Level Spirit Gathering Array.
That's one of the deepest foundations of their Northern Azure Spiritual Academy. Whether it's for powerful cultivators or for the Northern Azure Sect's training, the Eighth Level Spirit Gathering Array is indispensable.
If anything goes wrong, it will only make matters worse for the already precarious situation of the Northern Azure Spiritual Academy.
"Tai Cang, what do you think of this powerful figure?" Bei Ming Long Kun didn't answer, but instead asked a question.
"Very strong! And exceptionally talented!" Tai Cang said after thinking. Strength goes without saying; the fact that he could defeat six Supreme experts in a half-crippled state, leaving them utterly helpless, and was on par with the Bei Ming Long Kun, is enough to demonstrate his power.
Moreover, Tai Cang could naturally see that this person was not very old either. Two hundred years old seemed quite old, but compared to the other party's cultivation, it was completely insignificant. The former was even born in Lower Plane, yet he was still able to reach this level, so his talent was unimaginable.
"Then do you think he's an ingrate?" Bei Ming Long Kun asked again.
"This..."
"It shouldn't be." Tai Cang thought for a moment, then firmly denied it, without any concrete evidence, just an instinctive intuition.
"I don't think so either," Bei Ming Long Kun said with a smile.
"Since the other party isn't an ungrateful person, then our efforts were worthwhile."
Tai Cang was slightly taken aback, then suddenly realized and said, "Lord Bei Ming is absolutely right."
As long as the other party isn't the type to renege on their promises, the current effort will surely be repaid many times over in the future, Tai Cang has no doubt about Xiao Han's abilities.
"Therefore, all we need to do is demonstrate our sincerity to the greatest extent possible," said Bei Ming Long Kun.
"Don't try to outsmart him; we won't lose out if we treat people with sincerity."
"Yes," Tai Cang replied.
Even if Bei Ming Long Kun didn't say it, he knew that every powerful person who had the ability to break through the dimensional barriers and enter the Great Thousand World had experienced all sorts of grand events in the Lower Plane. Their schemes and tricks might just be seen as clowns by others. The best way to build rapport was to move people with sincerity.
Even if the goal is not achieved, there will be no animosity.
Bei Ming Long Kun gazed at the constantly flashing Spirit Gathering Array, his eyes gradually deepening. "Although our Northern Azure Spiritual Academy is one of the Five Great Academies, its foundation is ultimately too shallow."
"The war with the Dragon Demon Palace has caused many negative consequences."
"The only thing we can do is try our best to improve our strength and seize every opportunity to enhance the academy's foundation."
The Eighth Level Spirit Gathering Array is the greatest sincerity that the Northern Azure Spiritual Academy can offer at present. After meeting Xiao Han today, Bei Ming Long Kun immediately determined that this would be a golden opportunity for the Northern Azure Spiritual Academy to strengthen its foundation.
"Now go and make preparations. I want to see what those people in the Dragon Demon Palace, who aren't even Sixth Grade Supreme, are capable of."
"Yes." Tai Cang's heart was filled with excitement. With Lord Bei Ming taking action, what need was there for the Dragon Demon Palace?
Do you really think that the Northern Azure Spiritual Academy is afraid of them because they usually stay in the Northern Azure Continent?
At this moment, Xiao Han was concentrating on Spiritual Power Conversion.
The Dou Qi within the body dissipates through a certain method and is then reabsorbed into the body. After undergoing a special circulation process, it transforms into crystal-blue Spiritual Power, circulating within the body in circles.
"Sigh! I'm so envious."
"Why didn't I have this luck back then?" Ice Emperor had somehow emerged from the ring, looking at Xiao Han, who was undergoing Spiritual Power Conversion, with a mix of melancholy and envy.
He naturally sensed that Xiao Han's fighting Dou Qi was rapidly dissipating, but at the same time, an energy even purer than Dou Qi entered Xiao Han's body.
Although this power is weak compared to Dou Qi, it is a seed that, with continuous nurturing, will eventually grow into a towering tree.
"However..." Ice Emperor narrowed his eyes once again.
"It's uncertain how long it will take to get back to its peak."
Xiao Han lost a significant amount of cultivation. Although there is no such thing as a bottleneck in cultivation, the energy required to break through to the original realm is not readily available. Now, the Ice Emperor can only hope that Xiao Han will prove himself.
And so, time quietly slipped away amidst Xiao Han's cultivation and Ice Emperor's anticipation.
