Chapter 2576 The Heavenly Vein’s Evolution


Upon hearing w.a.n.g Wei’s words, Feng Qing’s eyes lit up and he laughed before he said, “Thank you, then.”


Both Feng Qing and w.a.n.g Wei had only arrived in the Spirit within the past 10,000 years. Without backers and a strong force, they were at the bottom of the food chain in the Spirit Overarching Heaven. Although they were faring better now, they were still only superior to those who have just ascended. In the Spirit Overarching Heaven and all the Devata Realms, one could only rely on oneself to change one’s status. As usual, the strong stood on top while the weak stood at the bottom. Only the strong were revered. For this reason, everyone would spend their time cultivating to become stronger. In Feng Qing and w.a.n.g Wei’s case, they wanted to go stronger so that other people would respect them as well, instead of only being feared by those who had newly ascended to the Spirit Overarching Realm.


After thanking w.a.n.g Wei, Feng Qing looked at Duan Ling Tian with a faint smile and said, “And you… Thank you. if it weren’t for you, w.a.n.g Wei wouldn’t have swap s.h.i.+fts with me.” After he finished speaking, he left the Celestial Ascension Pool and led the newcomers who were standing next to w.a.n.g Wei away.


After their departure, Duan Ling Tian and w.a.n.g Wei were the only ones conscious in the football field-sized pool.


Duan Ling Tian glanced at w.a.n.g Wei dismissively and said in an equally dismissive tone, “Since you want to wait, then wait.” As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his eyes, ignoring w.a.n.g Wei who was even more enraged now. He immersed himself in the pool and sensed the gentle force within the Celestial Ascension Pool. The force felt similar to the Celestial Origin Energy but different at the same time. The force made him feel warm as though he was bathing in a hot spring.


‘Since third uncle had intentionally reminded me to stay in the Celestial Ascension Pool longer to refine my 99 Heavenly Veins, I’m sure it’ll be beneficial to me.’ Although Duan Ling Tian had only met Xia Jie once and they did not have a close relations.h.i.+p, he firmly trusted Xia Jie since Xia Jie was Ke’er’s third uncle. Moreover, Xia Jie had also saved his life before.


‘I wonder how I should refine my Heavenly Veins? Should I try absorbing the force in the Celestial Ascension Pool and circulate it through my 99 Heavenly Veins?’ As soon as this thought appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind, he relaxed and allowed the force from the Celestial Ascension Pool to flow into his body.


“Hm?” However, Duan Ling Tian discovered the force from the Celestial Ascension Pool did not seem to affect his Heavenly Veins at all even after he had meticulously circulated it through his Heavenly Veins. Even after half an hour pa.s.sed, nothing had happened.


‘What is going on? Nothing’s happening? Was third uncle toying with me?’ Duan Ling Tian was confused. At this time, the people around him still remained unconscious. Only he and w.a.n.g Wei who was standing by the Celestial Ascension Pool were awake.


As soon as Duan Ling Tian opened his eyes, he discovered w.a.n.g Wei was still glaring at him coldly. However, he merely glanced at w.a.n.g Wei dismissively before ignoring him again.


Duan Ling Tian shook his head and dismissed his earlier thoughts. ‘Third Uncle has no reason to lie to me.’


‘Right!’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up suddenly as though he remembered something. ‘I can try using the Elementary Devouring Tactic to absorb the force from the Celestial Ascension Pool. Perhaps, I’ll be able to refine my Heavenly Veins that way!’


With that in mind, Duan Ling Tian closed his eyes again and cast the a.s.sist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic. Black whirlpools appeared around him.


Due to the mist shrouding the Celestial Ascension Pool, w.a.n.g Wei’s sight was obscured by it. However, a frown appeared on his face when he saw the mist begin to stir around the purple-clad young man whom he despised. As the mist swirled, it did not take long before they covered the purple-clad young man’s figure.


“What’s he doing?!” w.a.n.g Wei’s expression sank. He felt even more vexed when he could not figure out what Duan Ling Tian was doing.


All of a sudden, Duan Ling Tian’s laughter rang in the air. ‘It works!’ He discovered the force he had absorbed using the Elementary Devouring Tactic was flowing through his Heavenly Veins rapidly. Under these circ.u.mstances, his 99 Heavenly Veins were deconstructed before they were reconstructed again. The process repeated itself, bringing great pain to him. Every time his veins were deconstructed, he felt as though his organs were being stabbed. However, he braved through the pain. As the process repeated itself over and over again, he could feel his Heavenly Veins growing stronger as they kept evolving.


As time pa.s.sed, it evolved further! Duan Ling Tian who was fully immersed in refining his Heavenly Veins failed to notice this.


Meanwhile, more and more newly ascended people appeared around Duan Ling Tian. All of them were unconscious since they had yet to become Heavenly Celestials. What was strange was the newcomers who arrived shortly after Duan Ling Tian were still unconscious. Based on the time, they should have regained their consciousness and become Heavenly Celestials by now.


At some point, w.a.n.g Wei was no longer the only one by the pool. Currently, there were three men dressed in silver armors by the pool. There were one middle-aged man and two young men. All three of them were dumbfounded when they saw the large group of people in the Celestial Ascension Pool.


“W-what is happening?”


“The three groups of newcomers who ascended earlier should have become Heavenly Celestials and woken up by now. However, even after the fourth batch has arrived, the first three batches still show no signs of waking up!”


“w.a.n.g Wei, who’s the newcomer who’s surrounded by the swirling mist? I have a feeling this has something to do with him!”


All three of them were looking at w.a.n.g Wei in confusion. When they arrived, they had learned the reason behind w.a.n.g Wei’s prolonged presence by the Celestial Ascension Pool.


w.a.n.g Wei looked at the figure shrouded in mist in the distance and said contemptuously, “You are overthinking things… How can a newly ascended person like him affect others’ cultivation paths?”


The men in silver armors, the middle-aged man and the two young men, could not help but frown when they heard w.a.n.g Wei’s words.


“Logically, your words make sense. However, it doesn’t explain what’s happening at this moment.”


“I don’t think it’s a coincidence.”


“Unfortunately, we can’t probe the Celestial Ascension Pool with our Divine Consciousness… Otherwise, we can check if this purple-clad young man is the cause of this phenomenon.”


Naturally, Duan Ling Tian was unaware of what was happening in his surroundings. In fact, he did not even know that his Elementary Devouring Tactic was seriously affecting the people around him. Although there was a constant flow of the force in the Celestial Ascension Pool, it was absorbed by him as soon as the force was released. As a result, the people around him suffered from a lack of the Celestial Ascension Pool’s force that was supposed to help them become Heavenly Celestials.


Duan Ling Tian only opened his eyes when he discovered his 99 Heavenly Veins had stopped deconstructing and constructing. A bright smile bloomed on his face as he thought to himself, ‘My Heavenly Veins have changed!” He could clearly sense the changes in his Heavenly Veins. Not only were they stronger, but they had also become thicker. Originally, they were the size of a small snake, but now, they were as thick as a python!


Although Duan Ling Tian was ecstatic, he did not forget to stop casting the Elementary Devouring Tactic. Soon enough, the white mist that shrouded him gradually dispersed, revealing his figure.


“Hm?” It did not take long before Duan Ling Tian discovered several cutting gazes trained on him.
