Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1403: Chapter 891: Cultivating the Devouring Spirit Body

As Yang Zhenshan continuously injected Divine Soul Power and Mana into the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower, he quickly felt a faint connection forming between his own Divine Soul and the tower.

Then, with a thought, the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower vanished from in front of him, entering his Sea of Consciousness and swirling around his Divine Soul.

Unlike other Magical Treasures, the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower can enter the Sea of Consciousness and be nurtured within.

Ordinary Magical Treasures usually cannot be stored inside the body and must be carried or kept in a Storage Bag.

As soon as the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower entered Yang Zhenshan’s Sea of Consciousness, he felt a surge of tremendous power from the depths of his consciousness, enveloping the tower.

Soon after, Yang Zhenshan found that the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower had been completely refined, not just through simple sacrificial refining but thoroughly, as if he had nurtured it for a very long time.

Moreover, all seven layers of the tower were accessible to him, no longer restricted by the insufficient strength of his Divine Soul from unlocking the Sixth Layer and Seventh Layer.

In other words, he could now unleash the full power of the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower.

"Haha, I didn’t expect the Origin Core could also help me refine Magical Treasures!" thought Yang Zhenshan happily as he sensed all the functions of the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower.

The power just now was from the Origin Core in the Spirit Source Land, which had merged with his Divine Soul, allowing him to harness the power of the Spirit Source Land.

However, he never thought that his Divine Soul could borrow the power of the Origin Core.

This saved him time and effort since he no longer needed to slowly nurture the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower.

After understanding the situation, Yang Zhenshan slightly moved his Divine Thought, and the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower within his Sea of Consciousness started to rotate, emitting various strange Dao Rhymes.

The next moment, Yang Zhenshan’s Divine Soul appeared in a dim space.

This space seemed vast and boundless, yet in reality, it was very small.

Within the space, there was an illusory Dao Rhyme, with many false images faintly visible.

This was the Luminous Soul Domain of the Soul Returning Array.

"So this is it!"

After understanding the function of the Luminous Soul Domain, Yang Zhenshan was pleasantly surprised.

The Soul Returning Array could forcibly pull others’ Divine Souls into the Luminous Soul Domain, and once inside, the souls would fall into endless illusions.

The longer one remained trapped, the weaker the soul would become until it completely dissipated, turning into the purest Power of Divine Soul.

The Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower would then feed this pure Divine Soul Power back into Yang Zhenshan’s own Divine Soul.

What Yang Zhenshan valued about the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower wasn’t its ability to nourish the soul but its ability to imprison souls; as long as an enemy’s Divine Soul was weaker than his own, he could imprison it within the tower.

With the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower, his Soul-Attracting Bell and Soul-breaking Cone had become redundant. In fact, Yang Zhenshan rarely used these two Magical Treasures as their power wasn’t very impressive, only useful for catching the enemy off guard.

Moreover, the Soul-breaking Cone wasn’t uncommon, even Mo Xuanyu had one.

In comparison, Divine Soul defense Magical Treasures were relatively rare.

The Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower had a comprehensive range of functions; it could attack and defend, imprison souls, and was an all-around Divine Soul type Magical Treasure.

After thoroughly understanding the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower’s functions, Yang Zhenshan left it in the Sea of Consciousness to be nurtured, then took out the Jade Scroll of the Devouring Spirit Body and started reading.

This Body Refining Technique was simple: devour nature’s spiritual energy or the spirituality and spiritual energy contained in Spiritual Objects. It not only improved the cultivator’s physique and condensed a powerful dharma body but also increased the efficiency of spiritual energy absorption during cultivation.

The Devouring Spirit Body was divided into four stages. The first stage involved dharma body tempering, devouring spirit to refine the body, reshaping the physical foundation by consuming nature’s spiritual energy and Spiritual Objects, and forging a body capable of containing immense energy.

The second stage involved condensing the Spirit Domain to form a vast chasm, thereby creating a personal Spirit Domain to store Mana and spiritual energy, and during battle, extracting power from the domain, granting oneself enhanced strength in a short period.

Previously, Mo Xuanyu had refined a Blood Pool into a Spirit Domain, making his physique extremely strong during battle, almost crippling Yang Zhenshan with a single punch.

However, Mo Xuanyu’s Blood Pool Spirit Domain hadn’t been fully refined, or rather, his Devouring Spirit Body hadn’t been fully cultivated, causing his will to be influenced by Blood Evil Qi, making his mind somewhat befuddled.

The third stage involved the Spirit Domain becoming a chasm, manifesting form and image. In this stage, the cultivator could condense magnificent forms, whether a mighty giant, a mysterious ancient beast, or an ancient Divine. The dharma body would manifest, showcasing divine might, suppressing all, and spanning heavens and earth.

In this stage, the true power of the Devouring Spirit Body would be revealed, transcending simple Cultivation Technique and Magic, reaching the realm of Divine Skills.

However, this stage was not easily attainable; the Spirit Domain had to be condensed to an extremely vast extent.

The fourth stage involved swallowing and transcending, returning all phenomena to the void, breaking the boundaries between matter and energy, devouring all existence, including spiritual energy, Magical Treasures, even fragments of laws, achieving the supreme dharma body capable of devouring all.

Upon seeing the end, Yang Zhenshan displayed a contemplative expression.

The fourth stage was entirely different from the previous three stages, which he understood as merely acquiring powerful strength by devouring spiritual energy, but the fourth stage seemed to touch upon a level beyond his comprehension.
