Chapter 9: Refining the Myriad Phenomena Tower
The second floor of the library is filled with bookshelves, covering subjects such as geography, botany, zoology, mineralogy, sorcery, witchcraft, alchemy, artifact crafting, and medicine
Furthermore, there is the role of the Tianyan.
The suspended mountain resembles a peak that has been cleaved in half, with its direction reversed. The peak descends, suspended in control, forming a vast platform. Upon this platform stands a jade tower-like pavilion, entirely azure, as if constructed from crystal, exuding an extreme sense of clarity and transparency. The walls emit a faint glow, and it is this layer of light that obstructs the gaze from the outside, preventing any peering within.
At this moment, Liu Junhuai was indeed feeling extremely frustrated. He possessed such a precious treasure yet could not access it; it seemed he needed to focus on earning money. Such a powerful cultivation assistance function should be utilized as soon as possible! It would be best to first enhance his abilities, as he had only just reached the fourth stage of body refinement, and he would be easily bullied if he went out.
Five drops drip in
Throughout the entire night, Liu Junhuai reflected on everything that had transpired. When the next round of cultivation began, he immediately sensed the importance of mindset. The absorption of spiritual energy was smooth and seamless, the refinement of true essence occurred naturally, and the storage within the dantian increased significantly. Consequently, his level of power steadily rose.
Isn't there still the "Compendium of Strange and Wonderful Things" that can be recognized as a master? It seems that I have quite a few treasures, Liu Junhuai felt quite pleased with himself.
The "Nine Transformations Heart Method" emphasizes the accumulation of profound magical power during cultivation, seeking for the true essence within the body to flow into the sea like a mighty river. Just like the ocean, beneath its calm surface lies immense energy, representing a comprehensive divine technique. Each transformation possesses distinct power, yet the foundation relies on the simultaneous advancement of the five attributes, allowing one to disregard the sharpness of any single attribute through overwhelming depth.
Each entrance on the second floor and above is equipped with corresponding grooves, which must be embedded with different spirit stones in order to gain entry
After a night of meditation, Liu Junhuai's dantian and the false dantian in his sea of consciousness were filled with spiritual energy, and a small pile of spirit stones was arranged beside him, ready for the refining process
Liu Junhuai gritted his teeth, struck his chest fiercely with his right hand, and forced out a large mouthful of vital blood that sprayed onto the book
Five days later, Liu Junhuai, having exhausted all his spirit stones, successfully broke through to the fifth level of Qi Refinement, achieving a slight improvement in his distance to the first transformation of the Nine Transformations
The old immortal departed from him, and Liu Junhuai took a long time to recover from his confusion. In fact, he understood deep down that he seemed to be guided by some unseen hand. The words of that great deity were not without merit; causes give rise to effects, and effects arise from causes, everything is a cycle of cause and effect. Since heaven has arranged so much for him, only through relentless effort can he justify not having wasted this life. Everything that has happened since he became obsessed has also allowed him to gain many insights. The last words of the deity served as a reminder to maintain a calm heart when dealing with matters, to progress step by step, and to be clear and organized.

Finally, the book trembled slightly; I quickly grasped both sides of the book with my hands and urgently channeled my energy.
Two drops drip in
With a loud bang, a powerful suction force emerged, and the spiritual energy within surged from a small stream to a mighty river, flowing into the book.
Liu Junhuai gradually felt overwhelmed, increasingly absorbing spiritual energy at a rapid pace, while also grasping large handfuls of spiritual stones, desperately absorbing and refining them
The three floors contain five rooms, each embedded with a jade plaque, namely: Alchemy Room, Artifact Refining Room, Pet Room, Formation Room, and Body Refining Room. Each room has its own usage permissions, which are subject to certain restrictions upon reaching specific levels.
Once again, several drops have been applied, yet there is still no response
Four drops drip in
On the second day, Shen Yihuan came to visit
The golden sphere in the sea of consciousness was completely depleted, and the dantian was on the verge of drying up. Just as Liu Junhuai was almost overwhelmed by despair, the suction suddenly ceased, and a beam of light entered the dantian. He could clearly see a golden book the size of a fingertip suspended in the dantian, and at that moment, the sea of consciousness sensed a faint connection with the golden book.
Damn it, I almost got sucked dry. Liu Junhuai sat slumped on the ground, gasping for breath
On the fifth floor, a plaque is prominently hung in the center of the entrance, with a black background and three large golden characters inscribed: Wanxiang Building
The Heavenly Eye opened, clearly observing the fluctuations of the spiritual energy being drawn out in waves, surging into the book as if a floodgate had been opened, pouring in all at once
More than ten drops have been applied, yet there is still no reaction. Liu Jun felt beads of sweat forming on his forehead. This is different from what was explained in the book; where exactly did it go wrong
Suddenly, a strong suction force was drawing the spiritual energy from the book, akin to an infant drawing milk, with the intensity gradually increasing and the speed accelerating. Liu Junhuai cautiously controlled the spiritual energy.
Upon entering the Hall of All Things, a jade tablet suspended in mid-air flew into my hand
The divine consciousness penetrated in, and within the jade tablet was an introduction to the functions of each level of the Myriad Phenomena Tower
After a night of consolidation, Liu Junhuai tidied up his belongings and prepared to venture into the deep mountains to gather cultivation resources. He also needed to stockpile more spirit stones in order to enter the formal seclusion of the Wanxiang Tower.
The arrival of another day found Liu Junhuai struggling immensely to refine the golden light within the Mud Pill Palace. At the beginning, the overall refining process nearly caused his head to burst, forcing him to proceed painstakingly, strand by strand, like peeling silk from a cocoon. By the time the entire refinement was completed, two days had passed. Liu Junhuai's consciousness stirred, and his spiritual sense spread out like a vast fishing net, covering a radius of ten miles, leaving him in awe. In fact, there was one thing he was unaware of: cultivators can only develop their spiritual sense after establishing their foundation, yet he had managed to cultivate it at the fourth stage of Qi Refinement, which was truly his remarkable talent. If others were to find out, they might even dissect him for research.
In ordinary spiritual energy, the elements of wood and earth are relatively abundant. Absorbing ordinary spiritual energy to a certain extent does not affect the improvement of one's realm, but it is far less powerful than the complete inner elemental force of the five attributes. However, this is the only option available now
Oh my, this is a space! Liu Junhuai exclaimed with joy.
The five-layer treasure chamber and armory can only be accessed upon reaching the Golden Core stage
The first floor serves as a storage space. It is divided into more than a dozen rooms, where items can be actively categorized and arranged in a hierarchical manner.
Whether it is internal vision or external vision, many functions overlap with spiritual awareness. Liu Junhuai even thought that the heavenly eye might be somewhat redundant, but upon reflection, this could be a divine ability, certainly possessing its own miraculous aspects that have yet to be discovered. The heavenly eye is also divided into nine levels, with every three levels constituting a phase, divided into early, middle, and late phases. He is only at the first level, so it is still too early to expect significant assistance.
The fourth floor is the training room. Various array jade tablets are hung on the walls, and using these jade tablets allows entry into different training spaces
In this space, there is a suspended mountain
First, I mentioned the latest developments of the Shen family, then left behind a bag of ingredients along with several healing medicines and spirit stones, repeatedly giving instructions before departing
The "Chronicles of Extraordinary Objects" was placed on my lap, as I circulated my internal energy. With my left hand pressing down, a drop of essence blood fell in, but there was no reaction.
Leaving the Wanxiang Building, I gather my thoughts and begin my practice with a calm and composed mind
It is better to think repeatedly or make more preparations, rather than letting "The Compendium of Strange Things" take the lead, only to be dealt with by it in return, which would result in significant losses
Three drops drip in
The incantation activated, quickly replenishing a bit of spiritual energy. With a thought, he entered the book, and upon opening his eyes, Liu Junhuai was astonished, his mouth agape in shock.
