Li Mu took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and continued to invest his free proficiency points into the Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter.
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter +1."
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter +1."
...
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter proficiency +1, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter Rank increased to: Rank Five. Your Divine Soul has greatly increased, and your Divine Sense detection range has expanded by 220%. You have comprehended the Divine Sense Divine Ability: Star God Finger."
As the prompt appeared on the character panel, Li Mu's spirit was invigorated. Powerful Divine Soul fluctuations surged within him. At this moment, the quality of his Divine Soul, which had already been several times stronger, ascended another level. Simultaneously, the method for casting the Divine Sense Divine Ability—Star God Finger—emerged on its own.
Gather the power of the Divine Soul, transform it into the radiance of stars.
Li Mu closed his eyes and concentrated, slowly guiding the vast Divine Soul power within his body according to the newly comprehended casting method. He felt his Divine Soul could connect with the entire Universe and its stars, and every star in his Sea of Consciousness became a source of power for this Divine Sense Divine Ability.
Within Li Mu's Sea of Consciousness, his Divine Soul transformed into a Star Cloud. The Star Cloud pattern rotated ceaselessly, with Star Power and Soul Power intertwined, emitting incredibly powerful fluctuations. It was as if he was in a vast starry sky, resonating with myriad stars. His Divine Soul became even more attuned to the Law of the Stars, constantly perfecting and improving the quality of his Divine Soul.
After an unknown period, Li Mu successfully absorbed the immense benefits to his Divine Soul from this Star Cloud Contemplation Method upgrade. His gaze returned to the attribute panel, ready to continue upgrading the Star Cloud Contemplation Method.
With a massive amount of star source and free proficiency points, Li Mu was prepared to push the Star Cloud Contemplation Method to its limit in one go.
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter +1."
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter +1."
...
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter proficiency +1, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter Rank increased to: Rank Six. Your Divine Soul has greatly increased, and your Divine Sense detection range has expanded by 220%. You have comprehended the Divine Sense Divine Ability: Star God Shield."
The character panel's log displayed numerous proficiency prompts, and once again, a notification appeared indicating that the Star Cloud Contemplation Method had advanced to the next Rank.
With the appearance of this prompt, a powerful Divine Soul fluctuation surged once more within Li Mu's Sea of Consciousness. He involuntarily closed his eyes and concentrated, carefully sensing this newly comprehended Divine Sense Divine Ability—Star God Shield.
Li Mu's Divine Soul stirred, and he began to test this Divine Ability that protected the Divine Soul.
He saw that within the Star Cloud of his Sea of Consciousness, countless starlight suddenly gathered around his Divine Soul, forming a crystalline shield that enveloped his Sea of Consciousness.
This shield emitted a faint starlight. Although it appeared thin, it contained astonishing defensive power. Not only could it resist the intrusion and attacks of external Divine Sense, but it could also, to a certain extent, absorb and convert the energy from these attacks, providing nourishment and restorative Star Power for Li Mu's Divine Soul.
"Star God Shield, truly powerful." Li Mu silently praised in his heart, overjoyed. With this Divine Sense defensive Divine Ability, he could almost ignore most attacks targeting the Divine Soul from now on, allowing him to face Cultivators two Major Achievements higher than him without fear.
However, this was not yet the limit of the Star Cloud Contemplation Method.
Time flew, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
After Li Mu successfully absorbed the effects of this Star Cloud Contemplation Method upgrade, his gaze remained on the panel, investing star source and free proficiency points to further upgrade the Star Cloud Contemplation Method.
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter +1."
...
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter proficiency +1, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter Rank increased to: Rank Seven. Your Divine Soul has reached a new Realm, and your Divine Sense detection range has expanded by 350%. You have comprehended the Divine Sense Divine Ability: Star God Domain."
This Divine Ability shocked Li Mu even more. The Star Soul Domain was a powerful Divine Ability that allowed him to manipulate the power of stars within a certain range using his Divine Soul. Under his Divine Soul's control, the surrounding stars seemed to become his Puppets, obeying his command and unleashing destructive power.
Li Mu took a deep breath and briefly tried the Star God Domain. His Soul Power surged within him, generating a Divine Ability that allowed him to create a Divine Soul Domain belonging to him, centered on himself and encompassing the scope of the Cultivation room.
Within this Domain, Li Mu's Divine Soul would have absolute control over the power of the stars. Whether for attack or defense, he would receive a massive amplification. More importantly, he could freely mobilize the power of the stars within the Domain, setting up various powerful star Spells, and creating various Star Power Formations using Star Power as Formation patterns would be effortless.
Li Mu closed his eyes and concentrated, feeling the deep Fusion of the surging Star Power and his Divine Soul within him. He slowly opened his eyes, which gleamed with an unprecedented light. Within this Star God Domain, woven by his own hands, every wisp of starlight seemed to contain endless power and mysteries, ready for him to utilize.
Li Mu, let me ask, he softly chanted the incantation, lightly tapping the Void Realm with his fingertips. Immediately, several illusory star images slowly coalesced around him. They rotated along a mysterious trajectory, releasing soft yet powerful Star Power, illuminating the entire Cultivation room as brilliantly as a star river.
"The Star Soul Domain Divine Ability can actually condense Star Power into substance! Good! Good! It's truly excellent!"
Li Mu's joy was evident. This Divine Sense Divine Ability was not only an enhancement of his Divine Soul but also a leap in his deep understanding of Divine Sense power.
Li Mu continued to explore the infinite possibilities derived from the Star God Domain Divine Ability. The condensed illusory star images sometimes transformed into sharp Star Blades, sometimes encircled his body, forming an unbreakable defense; and sometimes coalesced into a gentle star river, nourishing and strengthening his Physical Body.
As his practice deepened, Li Mu began to try combining the Star God Domain Divine Ability with Formations and Spells, creating unique Spells of his own.
Approximately a month passed, and only then did Li Mu fully absorb all the changes brought by this Star Cloud Contemplation Method upgrade. He not only mastered the essence of the Star God Domain Divine Ability but also, on this basis, created several Spells and Formations that integrated the Star Soul Domain.
Looking at the character panel, which still had a large amount of star source and free proficiency points remaining, Li Mu did not hesitate and continued to invest in the Star Cloud Contemplation Method.
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter +1."
...
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter +1."
...
With the investment of hundreds of millions of star source and free proficiency points, the character panel's upgrade prompts flashed densely, like a waterfall, pouring down ceaselessly.
...
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter proficiency +1, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter Rank increased to: Rank Eight. Your Divine Soul has undergone a qualitative transformation, and your Divine Sense detection range has expanded by 500%."
As the Star Cloud Contemplation Method advanced to Rank Eight, a tangible Star Cloud image appeared between Li Mu's eyebrows. However, this time, he did not gain the blessing of a new Divine Sense Divine Ability; instead, his Divine Soul underwent an earth-shattering transformation.
Li Mu deeply felt this qualitative improvement in his Divine Soul, and an indescribable excitement and shock surged within his heart.
Within his Sea of Consciousness, the Star Cloud, originally composed of illusory stars, had now become exceptionally solid. Every star seemed to contain immense power and endless mysteries. This was not merely an increase in quantity but a leap in quality.
At this moment, Li Mu's Divine Soul seemed to merge with this Star Cloud. He could clearly perceive the pulsation of every star, and even guide them to arrange and combine according to his will, forming more complex and powerful star patterns.
What surprised Li Mu even more was that with the improvement of the Star Cloud Contemplation Method, his Divine Sense detection range not only expanded by 500% but also became more sensitive and precise. He could now easily perceive stars tens of thousands of miles away within the Painting World Treasure Mansion.
"Since the Star God Chapter has already reached Rank Eight, then next, ascending to Rank Nine, the Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter is probably reaching its peak!"
Amidst his joy, Li Mu's gaze remained on the character panel, preparing to push the Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter to Perfection in one go.
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter +1."
...
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter +1."
...
As hundreds of millions of star source and free proficiency points were invested, the character panel's upgrade prompts flashed densely, like a waterfall, pouring down ceaselessly.
...
"Ding, you consumed one free proficiency point, one star source, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter proficiency +1, Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter Rank increased to: Rank Nine, Major Achievement Perfection. Your Divine Soul has undergone a qualitative transformation, advancing to Star Cloud. Your Divine Sense detection range has expanded by 1000%. You have comprehended the Divine Sense Divine Ability: Eternal Star Soul."
As the proficiency of the Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter reached Rank Nine, Major Achievement Perfection, a faint starlight radiated from Li Mu's body, like the stars in the night sky, making him appear extraordinary and ethereal.
Li Mu's Five Elements Dao Body was forced to manifest. His entire body was surrounded by the Five Elements Spiritual Power of the world, radiating dazzling and extraordinary brilliance. With his five-colored long hair and translucent skin, the Five Elements Power resonated, displaying a sacred and mysterious transcendence from the mundane. He suddenly opened his eyes, and star rivers rotated within his pupils, with countless silver stars, profound and mysterious.
The qualitative transformation of his Divine Soul brought Li Mu's Divine Sense strength to an unprecedented height, allowing him to clearly perceive subtle changes in his surroundings. The fundamental nature of everything within the entire Treasure Mansion Space could not escape the coverage of his Divine Sense.
And the comprehended Divine Sense Divine Ability—Eternal Star Soul—further empowered Li Mu. Under this Divine Ability, his Divine Soul could live as long as the stars. Even when facing powerful mental attacks, it would remain as stable as a star, and could even counterattack using the power of the stars, making enemies tremble in fear.
More importantly, the Eternal Star Soul granted Li Mu a special recovery ability. Even if his Divine Soul was damaged, it could quickly recover under the nourishment of Star Power, almost reaching the Realm of Eternal life.
Li Mu did not overly indulge in the powerful Divine Soul power. He activated the Reversal Yuan Breath Concealment Art, quickly retracting his Five Elements Dao Body and the overflowing power of his powerful Divine Soul.
As the Reversal Yuan Breath Concealment Art circulated, a gentle and profound power rose from Li Mu's Dantian, slowly permeating every corner of his body like fine rain nourishing all things. This power seemed to possess magical properties; it not only quickly calmed the Five Elements Spiritual Power, which had become slightly restless due to the manifestation of the Five Elements Dao Body, but also meticulously drew back all the Divine Soul power that had inadvertently leaked out, re-condensing it within Li Mu's Sea of Consciousness.
Under the effect of the Reversal Yuan Breath Concealment Art, the light around Li Mu gradually receded until it completely merged into his body, as if it had never been revealed. His aura also became increasingly restrained and peaceful, transforming him into an ordinary Soul Transformation cultivator.
Li Mu slowly opened his eyes, which gleamed with wisdom and serenity, and a joyful smile appeared on his face.
Choosing to delay refining the seven Soul Transformation Clones was undoubtedly a very wise decision. With the Major Achievement Perfection of the Star Cloud Visualization Art-Star God Chapter, his Divine Soul underwent earth-shattering changes. Now, refining the seven Soul Transformation Clones simultaneously and condensing his Law Domain would have a success rate increasing from the original twenty to thirty percent to seventy to eighty percent. Coupled with taking the Seven-Rank Dao Pill—Returning Void Pill—condensing the Chaos Law Domain should be a sure thing.
It was just a pity that he was currently lost in the Shadowy Dark Domain and could not immediately return to Qi Ling Star to summon the seven Soul Transformation Clones.
Li Mu sighed slightly. With a thought, his figure flickered and disappeared from the Treasure Mansion Space, reappearing on the massive forehead of the Nine Nether Kun Whale.
Li Mu waved his hand, conjuring a Star Disk. The Star Observation Method operated, and Divine Soul power surged into it. On the Star Disk, stars revolved, as if a miniature Universe was slowly rotating. Each star corresponded to a vast expanse of the starry sky.
Li Mu closed his eyes and concentrated, his brow revealing an extraordinary solemnity. His mind was closely connected to the Star Disk, as if breaking through the shackles of time and space, searching everywhere and calculating the location of Dark Spirit Star.
Time flew, and several months passed in the blink of an eye.
As the Star Cloud Contemplation Method deepened, Li Mu's perception reached an unprecedented height. His calculation efficiency increased by thousands of times, and the scope of his exploration of the starry sky expanded by tens of thousands of times. It was as if he was in a Void Realm, surrounded by endless darkness and flickering points of light. In this Void Realm, he continuously used his Divine Soul power to sense, constantly trying to measure and touch.
Finally, a peculiar dark light caught Li Mu's attention.
The light flickered, emitting unique fluctuations, which was precisely the unique aura of Dark Spirit Star. Li Mu's spirit was invigorated, and he quickly locked onto its location. The stars on the Star Disk adjusted accordingly, finally settling on a specific coordinate, sparkling with an unusual light.
"Found it!"
Li Mu opened his eyes, unable to conceal his joy. Following the method of deducing star positions taught by Qingyang Zi, he successfully found the location of Dark Spirit Star. Now, returning to Qi Ling Star was hopeful.
Li Mu summoned Little White, then ordered it to control the Nine Nether Kun Whale and speed towards the location of Dark Spirit Star.
In the vast starry sky, the Nine Nether Kun Whale flicked its massive tail, changing direction, like a ghost gliding on black satin, silently traversing among the stars. A faint, ethereal blue light enveloped its body, which was the manifestation of Nine Nether Power, generated by its high-speed movement and the intense fluctuations produced by penetrating the Nine Nether Power.
As the Nine Nether Kun Whale accelerated, time seemed to be compressed. Li Mu and Little White sat on the whale's back, experiencing an unprecedented rush of speed. Everything around them rapidly receded, leaving only blurred light and shadows. (End of Chapter)
