Attention Concentration Period

  "'Divine Ascension Trial Token'! Could it be that with this token, I can participate in the Divine Ascension Trial?"

  Although he had never heard that participating in the Tian Xiao trial required a token, seeing the words on the token would naturally lead to such an association. If it were really possible to participate in the Tian Xiao trial with this token, it would be equivalent to adding another quota for his family, and the value of this token could not be measured by spirit stones.

  Whether his guess is correct or not will be known once he goes back home and asks about it.

  Apart from Su Zhi and Fan Yu Tai's storage bags, Liu Bo also carefully checked the other five people's storage bags. Although their wealth couldn't be compared to those two, they were still cultivators in the Condensing God Phase after all. In total, they had over 3 million low-grade spirit stones, around 10,000 mid-grade spirit stones, three low-grade heavenly artifacts, and one mid-grade heavenly artifact. There were also various spiritual medicines, refining materials, and pellets worth approximately over a hundred million low-grade spirit stones.

  "It's indeed the Killer Fire Golden Belt, I didn't expect a Condensing God Phase cultivator to have such a rich family background. With this unexpected wealth, I can also exchange for even higher-grade magical artifacts." Although Liu Bo had the top-quality treasure, Phantom Armor, he had always lacked powerful high-grade attack magical artifacts. His current most advanced attack magical artifact was the superior heavenly-grade sword he just obtained from Su Zhi. If he could acquire an even higher-grade magical artifact, Liu Bo's strength would increase greatly.

  Liu Bo has now reached the peak of the Qi Refining stage, and as long as he finds a quiet place, he can break through to the Spirit Condensation stage at any time. Advancing to the Spirit Condensation stage is a qualitative change, and his strength will far surpass that of the Qi Refining stage. Liu Bo has been somewhat impatient for some time now.

  Still chose the cave where he rested last time, Liu Bo prepared to break through here.

  The biggest obstacle to advancing from the Qigong stage to the Condensing Spirit stage is the substantial change in spiritual energy. If spiritual energy cannot be condensed into substance and expand the space of the sea of consciousness, it will not be possible to successfully break through the bottleneck.

  Liu Bo, having gone through the family's ritual transmission, had already produced a divine consciousness in advance, which far exceeded the requirement of spiritual power condensing into substance. Now his true yuan cultivation has also reached the extreme limit of breakthrough. With these two guarantees, Liu Bo has absolute confidence in breaking through the condensed spirit period.

  With such a deep foundation, Liu Bo couldn't bear to waste the newly obtained Concentration Pills and Enlightenment Pills, planning to rely solely on his own strength to advance to the Concentration Stage.

  Liu Bo entered a state of complete absorption in his practice of "Xinghuo Chuanshen", transcending the stage of concentrated attention.

  In such a realm, his spiritual power became more and more condensed, beginning to impact the intangible barrier of the sea of consciousness. Liu Bo had absorbed a large amount of soul origin energy, making his soul infinitely stronger than that of ordinary cultivators of the same rank. His spiritual power was naturally extremely formidable, so his first impact had an extremely obvious effect.

  With the impact of spiritual power, the space in the sea of consciousness is gradually increasing. Liu Bo continued to increase the intensity of the impact, and after repeating it five times, the area of the space in the sea of consciousness was infinitely close to a diameter of one meter.

  The limit of the spiritual space reaching a diameter of one meter is the extreme limit for practitioners in the Qi Refining stage. As long as this value is broken through, the practitioner's spiritual power will undergo a qualitative change and advance to the next level of Spiritual Condensation.

  Having reached the limit of the Qi Refining stage, Liu Bo was still full of spirit and energy, without any pause, continuing to charge at the spatial barrier of the Sea of Consciousness.

  After repeating three times, the limit of this Qi training period was finally broken, and the diameter of the recognition sea space finally broke through the value of one meter. Liu Bo felt that his divine consciousness seemed to have been greatly sublimated, not only more condensed, but also could clearly feel any subtle changes within a range of one meter around him.

  It is extremely rare for a cultivator to have their divine sense leave their body during the concentration period, because ordinary cultivators are not yet able to produce a divine sense at this stage, let alone have an encounter with a divine sense leaving the body. Liu Bo's situation was a special privilege unique to the direct disciples of the Liu family's lineage, and having the assistance of his divine sense would have a huge impact whether in cultivation or when facing enemies.

  Finally advancing to the Condensation Period, Liu Bo began to consolidate his new realm. After taking a Refining Yuan Pill, the newly broken-through realm quickly stabilized.

  As a cultivator in the condensing phase, his spiritual power had greatly increased, and his understanding of martial skills and spiritual techniques was even deeper. Even ordinary cultivators could reach the first-class realm of martial skills with hard work. Apart from spiritual power, the true yuan of the cultivator also underwent qualitative changes. At this time, Liu Bo's dantian had a true energy that was extremely condensed, already showing slight signs of liquefaction, and whether in terms of quantity or quality, there was a huge enhancement.

  Successfully advancing to the Condensing Spirit stage, Liu Bo was overjoyed. This was a substantial sublimation for cultivators, with both their True Essence and soul undergoing qualitative enhancements. This transformation was what cultivators pursued at their core, far more important than advancements in martial skills or spiritual techniques. With the enhancement of their fundamental nature, further cultivation of martial skills and spiritual techniques would naturally progress rapidly.

  Liu Bo took advantage of the momentum and intensified his practice of martial arts and spiritual techniques. In just three days, he made tremendous progress in both areas.

  In terms of martial arts, the Breaking Heaven Strike he valued the most finally broke through to the third strike. "Water-style Eighteen Forms" also reached the four-forms-as-one realm of the fourth rank. Moreover, both techniques could now be perfectly combined, meaning Liu Bo's martial arts power had already reached the seventh rank. To reach the seventh rank in martial arts at the Condensing Spirit stage was absolutely shocking. Even among those who could reach the third rank in martial arts at the peak of the Condensing Spirit stage were considered extremely talented and rarely seen.

  Other martial arts, such as "Rainy Wind Sword", "Ice Flame Sword Finger", "Rapid Thunder Body Method", "Cloud Drifting Mist Surrounding Body Method", "Falling Leaf Palm Method" and "Azure Wave Palm Method" have also made great progress. Among these martial arts, the "Cloud Drifting Mist Surrounding Body Method" has made the most progress, barely reaching the edge of a third-grade martial art, while the others have reached the realm of second-grade.

  Liu Bo's martial skills were able to make such great progress, apart from the fact that he had advanced to the Condensing Spirit stage and his strength had increased greatly, the effect of the Jingyuan Dan was also extremely significant. Taking the Jingyuan Dan had greatly enhanced his physical quality, now it has already surpassed that of a cultivator of the same boundary by more than ten times, this kind of physical enhancement is extremely astonishing.

  Liu Bo's progress in spiritual techniques was far inferior to his progress in martial arts. Liu Bo had originally spent less time studying spiritual techniques, and his understanding was not very deep. Although advancing to a higher realm accelerated his comprehension speed, it still couldn't compare to the progress he made in martial arts.

  In martial arts, Liu Bo has the assistance of the special secret technique "Breaking Heaven Strike", and also has the Jingyuan Dan to enhance his physique, so he naturally makes rapid progress. However, in terms of spiritual techniques, there is only the Xiangdian transmission's secret rhyme that can be referenced, and relatively speaking, the temporary progress is a bit slower than martial arts.

  Due to the rapid progress of martial skills, it created an illusion that spiritual skills are progressing slowly. In fact, Liu Bo's spiritual skill advancement speed is already extremely astonishing.
