‘Is this Hai Yuan?’ He pondered, his Sacred Heart consciousness rapidly reaching out to touch and analyze its components.

Strangely, this Hai Yuan was like highly purified seawater, seawater without impurities, compressed and seeping into the body.

Clearly it was being compressed, but the pressure didn't harm Li Cheng Yi's body in the slightest.

Strands of blue Hai Yuan, after seeping in through the skin's pores, then merged into the blood, beginning to circulate continuously through the body's vascular network.

Li Cheng Yi's body constantly practiced Na Bai Xian, while his Sacred Heart consciousness carefully observed this process.

Different martial arts cultivated different Zhen Yuan, and the Bi Hai Swordplay's Hai Yuan seemed to be purely for throwing out, overwhelming people with quantity?

He sensed it and didn't find any additional effects of this Hai Yuan.

The sky gradually darkened, and unconsciously he had practiced for three hours.

"Young Master, it's time to go back," Uncle Ning reminded from behind.

"Understood." Li Cheng Yi sheathed his sword and stopped.

The infiltration of Hai Yuan also stopped silently.

Uncle Ning, watching from behind, nodded slightly.

"Young Master has good comprehension. The inner Yuan accumulated today is quite good among his peers."

"Is that so?" Li Cheng Yi was a little surprised. He had the blessing of Hua Yu's three-fold comprehension, yet this speed was only considered good?

"Indeed. Was the Hai Yuan that Young Master absorbed the kind of colorless, transparent, and sometimes visible special liquid?" Uncle Ning asked.

".Yes." Li Cheng Yi sensed the faint blue Hai Yuan flowing within his blood and nodded.

"That's right then." Uncle Ning nodded with a smile. "This is the basic Zhen Yuan produced by cultivating inner strength. Afterwards, practice the external techniques until they are familiar, combine the two, and you can cultivate both internally and externally. As long as you cultivate it to a light blue color, it can be transformed into Zhen Yuan, and you can leap into the Third-Rate realm."

"I see." Li Cheng Yi nodded in understanding. "Then what realm is Uncle Ning in?"

"I've only barely touched the First-Rate realm of Xiantian Jin Yuan... Not worth mentioning," Uncle Ning sighed.

Strictly speaking, First-Rate experts, Jin Yu experts, and Peerless experts are all using Xiantian Jin Yuan at the same level.

But the intensity, concentration, range, total amount, and refinement with which they use it lead to huge differences between them.

As for Gods and Demons, they are top-level existences, looking down on everything.

"But Young Master, if you work hard, you might have a chance to step into the First-Rate realm in the future," Uncle Ning said with a smile.

Li Cheng Yi nodded.

In his heart, he pondered the realm advancement of this cultivation method.

Inner and external skills - Zhen Yuan - Xiantian Jin Yuan - Shen Yuan and Mo Yuan (divine and demonic energies).

The system was quite simple. From this, it seemed that the determining factor in combat power at the same level was more dependent on the martial arts.

The Hai Yuan he absorbed into his body was light blue from the start. Was this what Uncle Ning was talking about as Zhen Yuan? He still needed to test it further.

After packing up his things, the two began to return towards the Gongshan family.

After returning, he recited literary lessons, then learned Bi Hai Swordplay techniques in the evening, and finally rested.

This was Li Cheng Yi's fixed life every day.

Every three days, he also went to his teacher's place for lessons. Originally, there were also martial arts lessons, but since he was studying at home, they were waived.

During his time of peaceful study, Li Cheng Yi was also constantly integrating his Sacred Heart consciousness into the new dimension.

The fusion process was very simple. After all, no one was competing with him. He was the only one fusing, unique.

This was the advantage of the Forbidden Knowledge system.

As long as his consciousness approached and touched it, it could naturally separate a portion of his consciousness to integrate into it.

In the blink of an eye, half a year passed.

On Bi Hai Beach, Li Cheng Yi, dressed in a gray robe, was still practicing his sword.

His Na Bai Xian continuously drew Hai Yuan into his body. At this time, the Hai Yuan in his body had long filled his entire body, with no room for more.

And Li Cheng Yi's consciousness had also been completely integrated into the dimensional vitality, without leaving a trace.

But he, who had always prided himself on his vast consciousness, could only control a range of fifteen li (approximately 7.5 kilometers) around him after fusion.

He couldn't go any further.

It wasn't that he couldn't fuse, but that he didn't have enough consciousness.

Without consciousness, the Zhen Yuan in his body couldn't be transformed into Xiantian Jin Yuan.

After all, consciousness was the divine will of this place, and Li Cheng Yi had already figured it out.

But he wasn't in a hurry. After integrating into the dimension, he could initially use some simple abilities.

Those were the special abilities belonging to the dimensional demon god, although the range was only limited to within fifteen li. But in terms of strength, it was enough.

Withdrawing his mind, Li Cheng Yi continued to practice his sword, but with a thought.

Instantly, a five-meter-long fish, entirely light blue, slowly emerged from the distant sea.

Silently, this was the method of a dimensional demon god, attacking enemies from their own dimension.

Of course, Li Cheng Yi had not yet reached the realm of a demon god, he was just slightly plucking at the surrounding vitality.

Within a fifteen-li radius, he could freely use his consciousness to attack, reducing a certain amount of life vitality.

It was temporarily useless against martial artists, but against ordinary people or ordinary animals, he could kill with a single thought.

"Oh, there's a big fish again today?" The little fatty Gongshan Heng behind him was immediately overjoyed, trotting over and directing the guards behind him to scoop up the fish.

Uncle Ning and the expert were also somewhat puzzled. This kind of Lanqi (blue vessel) fish usually lived in the depths of the water, thousands of meters below, and rarely floated up here.

Its meat was quite delicious and contained a trace of special substances, which was very helpful for martial artists, similar to Yu Zhen Mi (jade rice), and the price was expensive.

But since they had encountered it by chance, they would take it with them first.

Happily putting away the fish, the little fatty looked at Li Cheng Yi.

"Brother Zhu, you're lucky. You've encountered a newly dead Lanqi fish for two days in a row."

"Not bad." Li Cheng Yi sheathed his sword and felt that the Hai Yuan Zhen Yuan in his body could not enter anymore, so he stopped.

His problem now was that his consciousness was not enough, and he had to find a way to improve it.

The method of improvement was actually very simple.

Tian Ju Ge (Heaven Gathering Pavilion) had already arranged it. The Creation Furnace refined from the Yin Codex was created for this purpose. Burning all things could simultaneously improve consciousness, all power within the body, and so on.

‘It seems it's time to use Heaven and Earth as firewood again.’

Li Cheng Yi looked at the vast Bi Hai, seemingly lost in thought, but in reality, he was sending Hai Yuan in batches from his body into the sword furnace in his mind to burn.

The sword furnace, which hadn't been used for a long time, was still the same as before. After dividing into a Mind Image world, it returned to its original form over time.

The Primordial Spirit Sword Palace was shattered, and the sword furnace now floated in the sky above the Mind Image world, like the sun, burning fiercely.

Li Cheng Yi's heart stirred.

Instantly, Hai Yuan turned into a blue thread, quickly being drawn into it, flying into the sword furnace.

Chī.

He vaguely heard a slight cracking sound.

Immediately afterwards, the sword furnace's fire soared, and the flames were dyed a deep blue.

Not long after, about five seconds.

Strands of blue-black Zhen Yuan shot out from the sword furnace and returned to Li Cheng Yi's body.

This Zhen Yuan was still Hai Yuan, but its density and quality were much stronger than before, at least ten times stronger!

And similarly, after burning Hai Yuan, the sword furnace also fed back a pure force, strengthening Li Cheng Yi's consciousness.

Although the increase in consciousness was only a few hundred thousandths of his original consciousness.

But it couldn't stand the continuous flow of Hai Yuan.

‘It's actually a purification and refinement effect?’

Li Cheng Yi was overjoyed.

In this way, he had found the unique path of dimensional demon god cultivation in Tian Ju Ge.

Use the Creation Furnace to increase consciousness, then fuse with the dimension, until finally controlling everything.

"Hey, A-Zhu, have you cultivated Zhen Yuan yet?" The little fatty Gongshan Heng held a bag of snacks, constantly stuffing dried meat into his mouth, and slowly walked behind Li Cheng Yi and asked.

"What about you?" Li Cheng Yi said.

"Me? Of course, I have. After all, branch bloodlines are still bloodlines," the fatty said with a smile, a little proud.

"I'm telling you, only three people in our class, including me, have cultivated Zhen Yuan. The others are still slowly grinding away."

"Is that so?" Li Cheng Yi said calmly.

"Aren't you surprised?" The fatty felt something was wrong.

"It's okay." Li Cheng Yi had now burned all the Hai Yuan in his body into a special blue-black Hai Yuan. He called this Hai Yuan Chong Hai Yuan (Heavy Sea Yuan).

Because it was heavier than before.

Then, the original overflowing Hai Yuan in his body suddenly shrank to only one-tenth of its capacity.

"Then you'll definitely be shocked by this!" The little fatty smiled mysteriously again.

"What?" Li Cheng Yi moved back away from the seawater and asked casually.

"It's just that Han Zong Di, the one you're engaged to, beat someone up. It was Gongshan Renault. A large piece of meat was bitten off his neck, and there was blood all over the ground. It was a terrible sight..." The little fatty sighed, with the expression of a little adult.

"Okay..." Li Cheng Yi didn't care about Han Zong Di and remained expressionless.

"You're not even surprised by this?" The little fatty opened his mouth wide and wanted to say something else.

Suddenly, three half-grown children, with their guards, quickly approached here.

The three were all classmates who attended the same class. One of them, walking in front, was burly, developed horizontally, and was the same height as the little fatty, but was clearly strong muscles without any moisture.

This guy was Gongshan Pingqiu, who usually sat far away from Li Cheng Yi and the others. There was little contact.

But at this time, this guy looked angry, staring straight at the little fatty and quickening his pace.

"Gongshan Heng!! You're asking for death!! You dare ruin my sister's reputation, I'll beat you to death today!!"

Gongshan Pingqiu took a few running steps, instantly drew the short sword from his waist, and thrust it at the little fatty.

Dang.

The little fatty had no practical combat experience. He barely drew his knife to block, and was kicked into a rolling gourd, covered in sand.

The guards behind him wanted to step forward, but were blocked by Gongshan Pingqiu's guards. The two quickly exchanged blows.

Without help, Gongshan Pingqiu beat the little fatty violently in the less fleshy parts.

He used extreme force, kicking twice, aiming deadly blows at the fatty's vitals.

"You dare say bad things about my sister, I'll kill you!!"

"It's nothing to do with me, your sister is just looking for men everywhere, I saw it with my own eyes!" The little fatty was quite backbone and still shouted loudly.

"You still dare to say it!!"

With a bang, a foot kicked into the middle of the fatty's back. Gongshan Pingqiu's eyes flashed with extreme anger, and he gripped his sword and suddenly stabbed it towards the fatty's neck.

He was from the main branch, even if he crippled Gongshan Heng, he would at most be punished with confinement.

"Stop!" Uncle Ning couldn't stand it anymore and took action to stop it, but was blocked by the other two children's guards.

Seeing that the little fatty was about to be hit.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of the fatty like lightning, raised his hand and swung his sword.

The blade struck the short sword.

Clang!

A crisp sound.

The short sword was knocked away, spinning and plunging into the distant beach.
