As the blood spread, the entire Star Plate trembled slightly, and a layer of hazy starlight flowed across its surface. Gu Sheng clearly felt that a mysterious and close connection was established between himself and the Star Plate.
In the next moment, the activated silver-white characters on the Star Plate started to rhythmically move and combine according to a unique and mystical pattern, as if illustrating the ultimate truths of the universe. At the same time, a vast, pure spiritual wave filled with endless profound information surged into Gu Sheng’s Sea of Consciousness like a river breaking its banks!
This spiritual wave was precisely the core inheritance message of the Path of Fate!
With the integration of this inheritance information, Gu Sheng felt as if his soul was being cleansed and sublimated.
He instinctively looked up, gazing at the initially complex, obscure, and ever-changing illusionary nebulae around the burial chamber.
A strange thing happened!
In his "eyes," those previously incomprehensible nebulae filled with chaotic energy and unknown information seemed to be imbued with new meaning at this moment.
They were no longer random light and shadow but transformed into various obscure revelations, direct interpretations about fate, cause and effect, and time and space!
Boom!
It was as if some barrier had been instantly broken!
His Spiritual Power Cultivation, which was originally stuck at the sixth-grade peak bottleneck, naturally and effortlessly crossed that difficult threshold under the impact of the inheritance information and insights about the nebulae’s mysteries, stepping directly into the seventh-grade realm of spiritual power!
Spiritual power surged like tidal waves, perception became more acute, and thinking speed increased several times!
Yet, just as his spiritual power successfully broke through and stabilized at the beginning of the seventh grade, changes occurred again!
His Sea of Consciousness, which had just expanded and filled up, did not continue to swell; instead, it began to slowly contract inward at a constant speed!
As the Sea of Consciousness contracted, his Spiritual Power Cultivation, which had just broken through to the seventh grade, began to rapidly "slide back!" Seventh-grade mid-stage, seventh-grade early stage... it seemed about to fall back to sixth grade!
But upon sensing this scene, Gu Sheng’s face showed no shock or panic; instead, it revealed a look of surprise!
"This is... Spiritual Power Refinement!"
He knew well that for a Martial Artist, the "quantity" of spiritual power was certainly important, but the "quality" was the foundation! Spiritual Power Refinement meant that the power exerted by a unit of spiritual power would be stronger, more resilient, harder to destroy, and resistance to illusion techniques and soul attacks would be greatly enhanced.
Normally, Spiritual Power Refinement is an extremely difficult opportunity, and most Martial Artists may not encounter it once in their lifetime. Generally, it only occurs with a very small chance during a breakthrough to the ninth grade, such a major realm.
Moreover, the refinement process is often accompanied by Sea of Consciousness tearing pain, which requires great perseverance to endure.
Yet now, having just stepped into the seventh grade, he welcomed such a precious refining opportunity! Moreover, the whole process was not the expected pain but a sensation of cool warmth, as if his entire Sea of Consciousness was being enveloped and tempered by a gentle but powerful force, incredibly comfortable.
"This must be the inherent effect of the Fate Inheritance! That senior even considered this point..."
Gu Sheng felt more grateful and respectful toward the Fate, whom he had never met.
Time slowly passed, and about an hour later, the contraction of the Sea of Consciousness finally stopped.
Gu Sheng carefully sensed himself.
His Spiritual Power Cultivation ultimately stabilized at the level of entering the seventh grade. Compared to just breaking through, it seemed there was no increase in "quantity," possibly even slightly less.
However, the solidity and purity of the spiritual power in his Sea of Consciousness were more than twice as strong as before! If previously the spiritual power was a loose gas cluster, now it was semi-solidified liquid mercury; its quality had dramatically changed!
He was confident that now, with only a spiritual power confrontation, Martial Artists below the Earth King Realm would find it difficult to be his opponent! Even initial Earth King Realm strong practitioners, if they weren’t adept at Spirit Secret Techniques, might not gain an advantage!
Even more thrilling was that this refinement was not only acting on his main Sea of Consciousness. The force left by Fate also tempered his more mysterious second Sea of Consciousness, hidden in the depths of his soul! At this moment, within his second Sea of Consciousness, the spiritual power waves tinged with pale silver light seemed to be slowly rolling and nurturing some unique, Path of Fate-related profound Daoist Rhythm.
