Before the No. 13 Black Pattern Stone Pillar.
Although the Third True Lord was on his way here, Dongguan himself knew nothing of it.
He simply used the Black Pattern Stone Pillar's Will Pressure to compress and temper his consciousness, constantly refining its Consciousness Structure at the same time.
Roughly two months passed as the Day-Chiming Palace continued forward, moving from a region where time flowed over 5,000 times faster to one where it flowed 10,000 times faster.
My Consciousness Structure has approached a certain degree of perfection, but the strength of my willpower still hasn't crossed that boundary.
Inside the Day-Chiming Palace, Dongguan opened his eyes as he sat cross-legged.
At this point, his entire body was faintly trembling, and his soul was under immense pressure. The Day-Chiming Palace did not block this willpower pressure. He did not know how more powerful Flying Palace-type Supreme Treasures would fare, but as a top-tier Palace Supreme Treasure, the Day-Chiming Palace could weaken soul attacks to a certain extent, yet could not block the purer pressure of willpower.
He was only using this Supreme Treasure to prevent further interference.
Still, according to the monitoring of the Day-Chiming Palace's Artifact Spirit, no outsiders had come to the No. 13 Black Pattern Stone Pillar during this period.
In theory, Dongguan had already reached the limit of willpower at which he should have lost control, but aside from a slight trembling of his body, no other adverse reactions had appeared.
This was because, as his Consciousness Structure improved, his control over his own willpower had advanced another step.
If others optimized their Consciousness Structure to this degree, perhaps they too could analyze their own consciousness. But without being able to analyze their own consciousness, optimizing their Consciousness Structure to this degree would be almost impossible.
