Chapter 165: Chapter 165 Disaster

"Um?"

At the moment when night fell, Ling Chen sensed the incredibly dense Spiritual Energy around him.

"Indeed, being near the Spirit Vein is extraordinary!"

His eyes opened, almost shooting out a sharp glint!

However, to avoid attracting attention, he immediately stopped activating the Night Moon Saint Body.

Ling Chen stood up and looked towards the Spirit Pond.

He saw that Wan Er and the other four were immersed in cultivation, with a vortex around each of them due to their execution of the Spiritual Technique, and countless Spiritual Energy frenziedly flocking into their bodies!

"Eh?"

Ling Chen’s gaze fell on Wan Er, suddenly fixating as a smile curled on his lips: "Interesting! Just five hours of cultivation and there’s already a hint of breakthrough?"

Among the six, Wan Er had the highest cultivation level, in the late eighth layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, closest to the next realm.

Although Gu Lin was in the late seventh layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, he had just recently advanced and due to his physical constitution, his Cultivation Speed was not as fast as Wan Er’s, who was starting her breakthrough first.

"It seems, the Spiritual Energy in the Spirit Pond is not ordinary at all!"

Ling Chen’s eyes filled with anticipation, his steps moved, and he stepped into the Spirit Pond.

"Night Moon Saint Body!"

His entire body submerged in the Spiritual Energy Water within the pond, only his head remained above the surface, and Ling Chen directly activated the Night Moon Saint Body.

"Boom!"

As soon as the Night Moon Saint Body was activated, Ling Chen’s body started to absorb the Spiritual Energy from the Spirit Pond like a bottomless pit, all the Spiritual Energy Water in the pond rushing towards him!

"What’s happening?"

Wan Er and the others, who were cultivating, were immediately startled awake.

They saw the water level in the Spirit Pond visibly dropping.

While, at Ling Chen’s location, the water began to rise, and a water column ascended.

Moreover, the most eerie part was, even though they were executing the Spiritual Technique, they couldn’t pull any Spiritual Energy over.

"This..."

Ling Chen was also stunned.

He hadn’t expected his Night Moon Saint Body to be so formidable that it could even snatch away the surrounding Spiritual Energy Water.

Previously, during his cultivation sessions, he only absorbed ordinary Spiritual Energy, at most vaporized Spiritual Energy—never had he witnessed the true might of the Night Moon Saint Body.

He hadn’t realized that even when half-inactive, the Night Moon Saint Body could swiftly refine the Spiritual Energy from the Spirit Revitalizing Pill, and now, when fully active faced with such dense Spiritual Energy, what terrifying extent could it reach?

It was a complete devouring!

Night Moon Saint Body, renowned as a unique constitution even envied by Devouring Divine Body owners!

Apart from the Devouring Divine Body, the Night Moon Saint Body’s efficacy in refining Spiritual Energy during the night was dreadfully unparalleled, stronger than any other special constitution!

Seeing Ling Chen, supported by a three-foot-wide water column, Wan Er and the others were wholly dumbfounded.

And, Ling Chen looking towards Wan Er and the others, also appeared completely dazed.

Once he recovered, a three-foot vortex of Spiritual Energy Water formed around him, spinning wildly with him at the center!

And the area where Wan Er and the other four were turned out to be completely dried up, showing the bottom of the pond.

Ling Chen’s mind raced.

Of course, he could control the Night Moon Saint Body to stop.

But, this might expose his unique constitution!

If his Night Moon Saint Body was exposed, he believed, it wouldn’t be long before Ghost King Guards, or even Ghost Divine Guards might appear here.

Xia Jiu You would definitely not watch his experimental son grow up, posing a threat to him.

Thus, Ling Chen could only feign panic, acting flustered: "What is happening?"

Fortunately, the Night Moon Saint Body could operate automatically, not requiring his control.

Thereby, his act of panic appeared very convincing.

"Palace Master!"

Wan Er made a quick decision, tapped on the ground, and directly executed the movement technique, speeding towards the exit of the underground hall.

With such a major incident occurring here, even Ling Chen being powerless to resist, let alone them.

At this moment, only the Palace Master could possibly save Ling Chen.

Watching the extremely anxious departure of Wan Er, guilt surged in Ling Chen’s heart: "When I get out, I should compensate her!"

A hundred breaths later, Palace Master Mo Han appeared first by the Spirit Pond.

Hearing what Wan Er reported about the unexpected incident, he felt incredibly nervous.

There was only half a year left until the Eight Palaces Martial Competition, and nothing could go wrong with Ling Chen!

He even felt somewhat guilty; knowing that Ling Chen could not absorb Spiritual Energy, why had he agreed to let him come in?

"Ling Chen, how are you feeling?"

Palace Master Mo Han looked at Ling Chen, anxiously asking.

He dared not act rashly.

Although the water column formed by the liquefied Spiritual Energy, in his view, was nothing much,

he was afraid that shattering the water column might affect Ling Chen.

It seemed that hearing the Palace Master’s voice, Ling Chen was slightly reassured, his voice still trembling a bit: "I’m not sure, I just feel like there’s a lot more Spiritual Power in my body!"

"More Spiritual Power?"

Palace Master Mo Han’s eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this, "How much Spiritual Power? Has it exceeded your limit of endurance?"

A sudden surge in Spiritual Power was not a good thing; there was a risk of exploding and dying.

"Don’t be afraid, I’m here for you. Calm down and sense it carefully!"

Palace Master Mo Han spoke again to comfort him.

"Okay!"

Ling Chen nodded heavily, took several deep breaths, and seemed to calm down.

"It doesn’t seem too much, it’s still within my range of endurance!"

It took more than a hundred breaths before Ling Chen replied.

"That’s good then."

Palace Master Mo Han also felt relieved.

As long as it was within Ling Chen’s endurance range, it would be manageable.

Otherwise, he would have had to break the Spiritual Energy Water Column himself.

Even if it hurt Ling Chen, it was better than him exploding and dying!

"You all go out first!"

Palace Master Mo Han looked towards Wan Er and the others.

"Yes."

Wan Er and the others immediately responded and then left the Spiritual Pool Hall.

"Ling Chen, you can try to use the extra Spiritual Power to break through your cultivation."

Palace Master Mo Han said.

Such an anomaly was unprecedented to him.

However, from the current situation, Ling Chen did not seem to be in much danger.

"Okay!"

Ling Chen nodded, his voice already not as tense as before.

His gaze swept over Palace Master Mo Han standing below, and a touch of emotion surged in Ling Chen’s heart.

This scene was all orchestrated by himself, he had no choice but to do so.

Otherwise, it would provoke dire consequences.

It made Palace Master Mo Han worried, and disturbed Wan Er and others from their cultivation, which made Ling Chen feel somewhat remorseful.

No way out, he would just have to find a way to make it up to them later.

As time passed, Palace Master Mo Han’s hanging heart finally settled.

Because he saw that the Spiritual Energy Water Column was slowly decreasing!

After a quarter of an hour.

"Boom!"

A tremor went through Ling Chen’s body, and the Spirit Sea in his Dantian expanded outward, displaying the anomaly of breaking into the Spirit Sea Realm.

"Spirit Sea Realm Eighth Level Early Stage!"

Ling Chen was thrilled inside.

"Did you break through?"

Palace Master Mo Han was also filled with excitement.

At this moment, he clearly sensed Ling Chen’s cultivation, Spirit Sea Realm Eighth Level Early Stage!

Before breaking through, Ling Chen could easily tout the Super Spiritual Bodies of the ninth level of Spirit Sea Realm; now with the breakthrough, being a Super Spiritual Body of the Primordial Pill Realm, perhaps Ling Chen would also have a chance to fight?
