C111

Once he returned to the Fire Sect, he would no longer have any worries for his life. He could relax his mind and cultivate, and the energy crystal was the most effective material to make up for the strength of his dantian. Duan Ru locked himself in his room and refined everything he could.

With sufficient Dantian's strength, Duan Yi's true strength rose explosively to the sixth level of the Aurous Core Stage, nearing the seventh level of strength. What was even more gratifying was that the soul force Duan Ling Tian encountered was sufficient to enslave a Void Level character. Even a Nascent Soul Stage person could battle and support thousands of rounds without being defeated, and there wouldn't be any problems.

Today's encounter, full of confidence, no longer hide away.

However, soul force couldn't be easily used, unless it was an enemy. This was because if it was used, it would only cause one to be enslaved, and if it was used, it would destroy the soul and become a puppet. This was not allowed within the Fire Sect unless it was a life-and-death battle.

Currently, Duan Jian was ranked 11th on the Golden Ranking and had the right to enter the Fire Sect's Heaven-grade treasure vault.

Relying on the ranking shown on the crystal card, Duan Meng easily entered the treasury.

Just like the Human Level Treasury, it also had 10 secret rooms.

The first to the third chambers were accessible during the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The fourth to sixth chambers were accessible during the Aurous Core stage.

From the seventh to the ninth chamber, it was possible to enter at the aperture level;

The tenth secret chamber was only at the Nascent Soul Stage. Duan Ling Tian was stunned once again. The last time he entered the high-grade secret chamber, he had broken through the technique by force. Could it be that he would have to repeat it again today?

First, he would enter the first secret chamber to see if there was anything good there. Even though Duan Meng was not at the Foundation Establishment stage, he would still break the technique with his strength. He circulated the Qi in his Dantian and opened a gap in the barrier as he walked in.

Duan Meng skimmed through it, but didn't find anything new. It was similar to a human-sized secret manual, except that it was a bit higher in level. It was neither a Qi Cultivating Stage nor a Foundation Establishment Stage one, and there were very few Aurous Core Stage ones. Duan Meng felt that this Heaven Grade treasury was a little unworthy of its name.

Duan Ru entered the fourth chamber, still the same as before, entering the ninth chamber. It was the same as before, even Duan Ru Yue was slightly disappointed.

There was still the last chamber. If he saw nothing good, he would leave the Fire Sect. He had already found the second page of the Heavenly Refining Diagram, and his dantian's strength had increased by leaps and bounds. It would be a waste of time if he stayed in the Fire Sect.

However, Duan Ling Tian was unable to open the barrier of the tenth room. Even though his strength had greatly increased and he had a good understanding of the barrier, he was unable to open the barrier of the tenth room.

The harder it was to open the door, the more one wanted to enter. This was the weakness of human nature, and they were all filled with curiosity.

Duan only needed to ask Duan Pu for help: "Duan Pu, what method do you have?"

Duan Pu came out, looked at the enchantment, and smiled.

"This barrier is easy to enter. You can't just blindly use force to break it. Use your strength!"

"How so?"

"This is a soul realm, an intelligent realm with thoughts. Only with your powerful soul force can you enter."

Duan Ru Yue tried using his soul force to attack, but he couldn't. He had no way of entering. Duan Pu laughed, "It's not like that. You can just use your soul force to enter first and then drag yourself in."

The fortress was the easiest to break from the inside.

Duan Ling Tian's soul force entered, turned into a virtual version of himself, and then pulled his original body into it.

"Hehe, I've learnt another move. It turns out that soul force can also be used like this."

Duan Meng started browsing through the treasures in the 10th room.

"Heaven Grade Spirit Formation! It can block a Mastery Stage's power!" Duan Meng saw this secret technique and was simply too happy. If he could learn this secret technique, then it would increase his strength by several times.

"Heaven level Qi Cultivation Method, it can allow one's Qi Refinement Stage to break through to the 2nd layer!" Duan Meng was ecstatic. "Heaven level Qi Cultivation Method, can help one's Qi Refining Stage to break through to the 2nd layer!"

"Heaven Grade Soul Forging Method. It can be used above the Aurous Core Stage." This secret manual didn't seem to be very useful. He was only at the Qi Refining stage, but he could still barely take a look at it. After reading it, Duan Rui felt that he could use it as well. Not only did he want to learn it,

"Heaven Grade Teleportation Formation, able to connect the two places to form a Space Bridge", this wasn't bad either.

"Heaven level."

Duan Jian was dazzled. He didn't know which one to learn, but he was hesitating.

"You can tell that he is a rookie with a single look. How can he possibly hesitate over these simple cultivation techniques?" A voice sounded, startling Duan Jidao.

"Who?" "Come out and talk."

"It's a joke to enter a heaven class secret chamber with just this bit of courage." This time, Duan Ru Yue understood that there was someone that wanted to talk to him.

Duan Shu looked around but didn't find any traces of him.

"Eh? "Where is he?" "What are you looking at, I'm here."

Duan Shu looked towards the source of the voice and couldn't help but smile. It turned out to be a three inch tall little fellow who was standing on top of a book and talking to him. The book was very large and the person was very small.

"So he is a villain."

"Pfft, you're the despicable one! I'm an elder of the Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant and I'm already 100 thousand and 8000 years old. Kid, you should call me grandpa instead."

Duan Ru Yue quickly understood. This three-inch old man with a white beard wasn't a human at all; he was just an artifact spirit. "Old man, are you the artifact spirit of that book?"

"Yi, you little child, how did you know I was the artifact spirit of the secret technique? Who told you?"

Duan Ling Tian laughed. It seemed that the three-inch old man was extremely honest, and he didn't understand the reasoning behind the old man's words.

"Don't ask me how I found out. Just tell me where your true body is. I'll take a look and I'll understand!"

"I don't have a true self, I am a true self!"

These words were a bit contradictory, but Duan Ru Yue was actually a bit confused. "Then, what happened to you?"

"I just woke up today and I saw you. We were fated to meet, and I already told you, I am the artifact spirit of all the secret manuals, and I am not an artifact spirit either. This Heaven Class secret chamber's book has been absorbing the essence of heaven and earth for a long time.

"Haha, this means that you were born today, and you even said you were aged 188,000, hmph."

"That's not right, my memory seems to be that of a hundred and eight thousand years old. However, what you said makes a lot of sense. I did only awaken to reality today."

Duan Meng became a little interested. "If you don't like these books, what do you have?"

The old man was proud, "Of course, a room full of secret manuals. To be able to evolve a spirit artifact like me, naturally, it is a top tier martial skill. It is the first martial skill you have seen, and it has also evolved with me.

Duan Meng understood most of it, but he had an idea in his heart.

"Old man, how about we make a deal?"

"What kind of deal?" "I'll take you out and you let me refine you into my master, what do you think?"
