Invincible Soul Emperor-Chapter 333: The Characterless Jade enters the Sea of Consciousness

Chapter 333: Chapter 333: The Characterless Jade enters the Sea of Consciousness

And now, these scenes were reappearing one by one, playing in a continuous loop at an extremely slow pace.

Ye Qingchen was overjoyed. Although he had long been strong enough to view his own body introspectively, this external-to-internal reenactment of scenes allowed him to comprehend the finer details of his Martial Techniques and discover his own shortcomings.

Ye Qingchen was completely immersed in this comprehension, and the scenes began to unfold faster and faster. What he didn’t know was that as time passed, not only was he understanding his Martial Techniques and Cultivation Technique more clearly, but his own powers of comprehension were also improving rapidly.

This situation went on for an indeterminate amount of time. Although Ye Qingchen’s strength had not increased much, his Cultivation Technique and Martial Techniques had been greatly perfected. In terms of sheer combat power, the current Ye Qingchen was capable of completely overwhelming his former self.

At the same time, Ye Qingchen felt his progress in Martial Techniques slowing down. Knowing his time for comprehension before the Wordless Jade Bi was limited, he no longer fixated on them. Instead, he began to recall the details of his Alchemy.

As he had expected, when he started to recall his Alchemy, the green light entering his body began to display images of his daily practices.

In the past, when Ye Qingchen performed Alchemy, he focused most of his Soul Power and energy inside the Alchemy Furnace. He had never observed his own Alchemy techniques as meticulously as he did today.

He even found many flaws in his daily Alchemy methods. His mind continuously worked on how to perfect them, and the illusory figures in his consciousness began to change along with his imagination. To his surprise, they could even simulate the effects and improvements that would result from these changes.

This is a powerful cultivation tool! Ye Qingchen was elated.

Not only could it accelerate the simulation speed, but the results and experience gained from the simulation would also be fed back into his Sea of Consciousness, completely intact. Because of this, his Alchemy continued to progress.

Time slowly passed, and Ye Qingchen finally managed to address all the current shortcomings in his Alchemy.

However, he still didn’t feel the kind of pressure that Liang Xiong had mentioned from the Wordless Jade Bi.

It seems I’m still far from the limit Sect Leader Liang mentioned. I might as well take this opportunity to continue improving my Alchemy. That way, I’ll have a better chance in the upcoming confrontation with the Huanyue Sect.

Ye Qingchen sighed inwardly, then began simulating the Pill Emperor’s Heart Sutra and Fen Tian’s legacy in his mind.

At this moment, the Pill Emperor’s Heart Sutra and Fen Tian’s legacy seemed to come alive. Empowered by the Wordless Jade Bi, they appeared as vivid images within his mind.

Ye Qingchen could observe the alchemical details in these images with minute precision. The parts he had previously found obscure and difficult to understand became perfectly clear under this direct observation.

He was thrilled. If this continued, his Alchemy would soon rise to the level of a Sixth-Rank Pill King.

Ye Qingchen was completely absorbed in this state of comprehension, oblivious to the changes in the outside world.

At this time, the brilliance of the Wordless Jade Bi was gradually diminishing, eventually flickering on and off.

Unaware of these changes, Ye Qingchen remained immersed in his comprehension of the Alchemy Dao, as he could feel that his attainment in the Alchemy Dao was now just one step away from that of a Sixth-Rank Pill King.

The Wordless Jade Bi kept flickering, and finally, a powerful light surged from behind it. The light converged and rapidly shrank, ultimately transforming into a small piece of jade that flew into Ye Qingchen’s Sea of Consciousness and circled his Dual Pupil Martial Soul.

At that exact moment, Ye Qingchen finally achieved his breakthrough, reaching the realm of a Sixth-Rank Pill King.

Only now did he realize, in shock, that a small piece of jade was hovering in his Sea of Consciousness, floating quietly below his Dual Pupil Martial Soul.

This little jade was clearly a miniature version of the Wordless Jade Bi.

The Wordless Jade Bi actually entered my Sea of Consciousness?

Ye Qingchen’s face fell. Liang Xiong had kindly allowed him to observe the Wordless Jade Bi, yet he had somehow fused with their treasure.

How could I possibly explain this to Liang Xiong?

However, Ye Qingchen soon discovered that he had only fused with the object that was behind the Wordless Jade Bi. From the outside, the so-called Wordless Jade Bi looked completely unchanged.

Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, his mind finally at ease.

Afterward, Ye Qingchen quieted his mind and observed the small piece of jade that had integrated into his Sea of Consciousness.

He vaguely discerned some kind of connection between the little jade and his Dual Pupil Martial Soul. It was an extremely mystical bond, and for the moment, he couldn’t quite grasp its nature.

「Outside the cave」

Liang Xiong and his son, Liang Fei, had been waiting for Ye Qingchen.

Liang Fei was naturally impatient. After waiting for a whole month, he had grown restless and turned to Liang Xiong.

"Father, do you think something has happened to Ye Qingchen in there? Why hasn’t he come out after all this time?"

Liang Xiong waved his hand and said nothing.

During this past month, Liang Fei had already told his father the entire story of how he had first met Ye Qingchen and how they had run into each other again.

However, Liang Fei couldn’t clarify why Ye Qingchen had chosen to use an alias, and Liang Xiong didn’t probe further.

After all, everyone has secrets. Ye Qingchen had also saved his wife’s life, so it would have been impolite to press him on a small matter he was unwilling to discuss.

What puzzled Liang Xiong was that previous cultivators who entered the cave to observe the Wordless Jade Bi could only last six or seven days at most before being expelled by its pressure.

Yet a month had passed, and not only had Ye Qingchen not emerged, but there was also no sign of an energy outburst from the Wordless Jade Bi inside the cave. This meant Ye Qingchen still had not reached his limit.

In the end, Liang Xiong couldn’t help but sigh.

"Liang Fei, this friend of yours is no simple man."

What the two of them didn’t know was that Ye Qingchen had already completed his comprehension and even integrated the Wordless Jade Bi’s true form into his body. Naturally, he would not suffer any backlash from it.

The only reason Ye Qingchen hadn’t come out was that he was consolidating his cultivation inside the cave.

「Meanwhile」

While Ye Qingchen was comprehending the Wordless Jade Bi, Xi Jianwei was leading a group of alchemists from the Huanyue Sect back to the sect.

Sect Master Huan Yuehua personally received them. Seeing Xi Jianwei’s party arrive, he couldn’t mask his joy.

"Elder Xi," he said, "since you took charge personally this time, the illness of the Thunder Valley Sect Master’s wife must certainly have been cured."
