When Shi Ling and Xiao Qingqing fell into the Time Divine Furnace at the same time, the surrounding light rays suddenly dimmed. Xiao Qingqing and Shi Ling instantly felt a stifling feeling.

At this time, Shi Ling took a deep breath and sat down cross-legged. Xiao Qingqing did the same, but when Xiao Qingqing sat down, she couldn't help but look around. She felt that the environment she was in right now was like a windowless, doorless room where only traces of light could be seen from the top of her head.

When Shi Ling saw Xiao Qingqing's expression, he smiled and said, "Don't worry."

Xiao Qingqing looked at Shi Ling again and nodded her head to show that she wouldn't be nervous.

Then, he saw Shi Ling take out two Wishing Spirit Bead s from the Heart Ring and raise his hands. Xiao Qingqing knew what to do and raised her hands as well.

Shi Ling said, "Let's begin."

Xiao Qingqing acknowledged and then saw Shi Ling pull the Yin Yang Twin Fire from the Heart Ring and wrap both of their hands.

It wasn't the first time that Xiao Qingqing used the Cultivation Method of Yin and Yang with Shi Ling, so her fear of the Yin Fire wasn't what it used to be.

After wrapping the two of them separately, he started refining the Wishing Spirit Bead between their hands. Immediately, he saw a green smoke rise up from the Wishing Spirit Bead, in the next moment, the two of them could clearly feel that a wave of extremely dense nature spirit energy was being pulled over.

When Bai Xiaosheng saw this scene, he knew that Shi Ling and Xiao Qingqing inside had already entered a state of cultivation. Thus, he shouted towards the inside of the Time Divine Furnace: "Shi Ling, Qing Qing, I'm going to activate the Time Divine Furnace now, get ready."

Shi Ling and Xiao Qingqing, who were in the middle of the Time Divine Furnace, were already surrounded by the rich spiritual energy. When they heard Bai Xiaosheng's words, their hearts couldn't help but tighten, but Shi Ling still looked at Xiao Qingqing and smiled, "Don't worry, Bai Xiaosheng will control it well."

Xiao Qingqing could only nod her head at this moment, after which, both of their eyes closed at the same time. Xiao Qingqing was purely absorbing spiritual energy to strengthen her Magic Source, while Shi Ling was refining the Spiritual Source.

In order to break through to the Blood Coagulation realm, one needed to refine eight Spiritual Source. Before, when Shi Ling was in the Yi Xiao City, he had refined one and after that, when he used the Time Divine Furnace to cultivate, he had refined another two Spiritual Source. Adding them together, he had refined a total of three Spiritual Source.

Shi Ling's current cultivation speed of his Spirit Vein was at 73 days and he had to refine a Spiritual Source. If that was the case, Shi Ling would still need to continuously cultivate for 365 days before he could refine all five Spiritual Source within a year. Even if Shi Ling used the Cultivation Method of Yin and Yang to increase his cultivation speed to 63 days and refined a Spiritual Source for a full year, he would still need 315 days.

Thinking of this, Shi Ling felt despair. Why? It would take a year to break through to the Blood Coagulation realm, so how many years would it take to break through to an even higher realm? Ten years? Twenty years? Thirty years? Then wouldn't his promise to avenge her in ten years' time become invalid?

After looking at the Time Divine Furnace again, he finally obtained a bit of a blessing. Although the Time Divine Furnace consumed a lot of spirit stones from cultivators, it was undeniable that it was indeed able to help the cultivator increase his strength quickly.

For example, when Shi Ling was training in the Time Divine Furnace, he had only used one day to refine two Spiritual Source. If he had cultivated normally, one Spiritual Source could require 73 days to refine, and the other two could also require a hundred and 46 days to refine. Thinking about it, the speed of cultivation between "One hundred and 46 days" and "one day" was simply incomparable.

Thinking about that, Shi Ling couldn't help but shake his head. He immediately focused his attention and started to cultivate seriously.

Very soon, Shi Ling could feel that as the concentration of spiritual energy in the Time Divine Furnace increased, the rate at which Shi Ling and Xiao Qingqing absorbed spiritual energy became faster and faster.

Suddenly, Shi Ling felt the temperature inside the Time Divine Furnace start to rise. The reason was not because of the Yin Yang Twin Fire in Shi Ling's and Xiao Qingqing's hands.

Thinking that Bai Xiaosheng had activated the Time Divine Furnace, Shi Ling said to Xiao Qingqing, "It's about to start!"

Xiao Qingqing nodded, indicating that she knew.

As time passed, the temperature around them started to rise. Gradually, Xiao Qingqing and Shi Ling felt as if they were wrapped in a layer of flame and deep inside their souls, there seemed to be something that was being consumed at an alarming rate.

Shi Ling knew what that high temperature inside the Time Divine Furnace was. Actually, that high temperature itself had no temperature, but they felt very hot because that feeling came from the depths of their soul.

To put it simply, the flames produced by the Time Divine Furnace would not have any effect on the human body, but they would directly burn the soul, and use that to consume the Life Time.

At this time, Xiao Qingqing could feel her Life Time becoming smaller and smaller. She couldn't help but to let out a sweet snort. Sweat was dripping down her forehead. Of course, Shi Ling wasn't any better off. Shi Ling also felt very uncomfortable.

However, both of them could clearly feel that their cultivation was rising at an alarming rate.

Shi Ling could feel that the Spiritual Source surrounding the Magic Source began to be consumed as a large amount of spirit energy entered his body. At this moment, it began to get smaller and smaller, and at the same time, the time energy of the Time Divine Furnace was being poured into it, causing the rate at which the Spiritual Source was being digested to become faster and faster.

Two hours later …

The Spiritual Source inside Shi Ling's body had already been completely refined, and Shi Ling's Life Time took less than a year to consume. When Shi Ling felt this, he immediately rejoiced and used his mana to control the pendant around his neck.

That pendant was given to him by wolf boy last time at the Guqiao Village Graveyard. Not only could it be used to store Spiritual Source, it could also be used to nurture a Spiritual Source.

Immediately, he saw a green light source emerging from the pendant around Shi Ling's neck, and that green light source was the Spiritual Source. When Shi Ling saw the fist-sized Spiritual Source, he immediately opened his mouth and ate it.

Not long after, the Spiritual Source entered Shi Ling's body and entered his Dantian. It started to circle around the Magic Source.

This was the fifth Spiritual Source. The Spiritual Source that Shi Ling refined just now, in addition to the three Spiritual Source that he refined before, Shi Ling had refined a total of four Spiritual Source. Right now, he still had four Spiritual Source to refine.

The moment the fifth Spiritual Source entered his dantian, it was wrapped up by Shi Ling's Spiritual Qi. As the Spiritual Qi wrapped around the Spiritual Source, it began to be digested and absorbed, turning into an energy body stronger than the Spiritual Qi and channeling into Shi Ling's Magic Source.

As the time energy from the Time Divine Furnace was channeled into it, the speed at which the fifth Spiritual Source was being refined was also rather fast.
