Chapter 212: Guidance Technique Lv22, Spiritual Force Breaks Through Again_2
Whoo Whoo Whoo!
Outside, as Song Chi began to actively practice visualization, a boundless spiritual force continuously poured into his body one after another, eventually merging into the Ancestral Torch at the center of his eyebrows through the circulation of the Spectral Energy within his body.
One day later, Song Chi's Ancestral Aperture had been filled with Soul Power by thirty percent.
Three days later, half of the Ancestral Aperture's area was filled with Soul Power.
Five days later, the filling progress had reached seventy percent.
...
On the tenth day, ninety-nine percent of the Chaos Space in Song Chi's Ancestral Aperture was occupied by the incoming Soul Power.
And it was at this moment that all the Soul Power from a thousand high-rank Soul Stones and a hundred Second Rank Soul Cores in the outside world had been completely drained, even the Soul Energy from the ten Third Rank Soul Cores had been extracted by more than eighty percent.
Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh!
Suddenly, the speed at which Song Chi's body absorbed Soul Power increased again, and all the remaining Soul Energy from the ten Third Rank Soul Cores was drained in one go. Finally, it turned into a large mass of Soul Power, surging into his body.
Song Chi clenched his teeth tightly, the extreme swelling sensation from the Ancestral Aperture in his forehead made his mind exceptionally groggy, and an indescribable feeling of drowsiness enveloped his entire body, as if someone under a sleeping curse, who might inadvertently fall into a deep sleep at any moment.

Biting hard on the tip of his tongue, the intense pain brought him back to a semblance of consciousness. He knew he couldn't fall asleep now, or else the slight chance he finally grasped would entirely slip away.
He was very clear that this sudden inspiration was most likely due to his Guidance Technique breaking through twice in succession, and the extremely active Spectral Energy incidentally triggered the spirit in his mind at a very small probability.
Therefore, if he missed this opportunity, hoping for such good fortune again would not be so easy.
Gurgle Gurgle!
The large mass of Soul Power gathered from the ten Third Rank Soul Cores, following the constant circulation of Spectral Energy, slowly moved toward the Ancestral Aperture above his head.
But what was normally an expeditious circulation of energy seemed incredibly slow in Song Chi's eyes at this moment.
God knows how long it took, but just when Song Chi felt like he could no longer hold on, a huge amount of Soul Power suddenly poured into the Ancestral Aperture.
And with the infusion of this Soul Power, the originally ninety-nine percent-filled Chaos Space in the Ancestral Aperture became completely full.
The moment the Ancestral Aperture was utterly filled, it acted as a catalyst, rapidly inducing changes in Song Chi's entire Spiritual Force.
Boom!
A sound reminiscent of the creation of heaven and earth rang out in his mind, the Ancestral Aperture expanding rapidly, and at the same time, his mind, which was extremely heavy just a moment before, became more vital than everyone else's.
At this moment, Song Chi seemed to re-enter the ethereal state he first experienced when his Spiritual Force transitioned from the Ordinary Thought State of the First Rank to the Second Rank.
His mind was immensely clear, and his mental computing power once again underwent a qualitative leap. Compared to before, his Spiritual Force was clearly a level higher.
This also meant that in the future, during emergencies, he would be able to make faster and more accurate decisions that would benefit himself more.
"Sixfold Mind Utilization, Third Rank of Ordinary Thought State, have I finally stepped into this phase..."
Song Chi couldn't describe his emotions at the moment because the word "joy" was far from sufficient.
What does it mean for a Second Rank Guidance Technique to officially possess the Third Rank of Ordinary Thought State?
It meant he could legitimately join the ranks of geniuses recognized by Torch Human Civilization.
Why would all the major powers of Torch Human Civilization uniformly regard such Torch Ship Captains as geniuses?
Because this not only concerns the Third Rank of Ordinary Thought State but also means that this Torch Ship Captain, after stepping into the Third Rank and undergoing the third life sublimation, has a very slight chance of possessing a consciousness at the Divine Thought State Level at the Third Rank Level.
As is well known, Divine Consciousness State Spirit is synonymous with Fourth Rank beings, only attainable after the fourth super life sublimation. To reach this level through other means is as difficult as climbing to heaven.
Therefore, to possess a Divine Consciousness State Spirit at the Third Rank Level, even with just a slight possibility, such a being, regardless of the race in the Shattered Starry Sea, is undoubtedly the pride of the heavens.
With a wave of his hand, he turned the now ordinary-looking divine soul resources around him into flying ash. Song Chi did his best to suppress the excitement in his heart, striving to maintain his composure.
Having the spiritual force of an ordinary thought state at the third stage of the second-rank Guidance Technique was only the first step. The most important thing after stepping into the Third Rank would be whether one could advance further and transform one's spiritual mind into a divine consciousness state spirit.
This was the crucial point and also the most difficult one—there was absolutely no room for laxity.
After reminding himself of this several times, he finally calmed himself completely.
Then, with a turn of his body, he strode toward the storage room.
A sigh echoed from within the closed storage room.
Although this breakthrough could be attributed to outstanding luck, since it was the active spectral energy within that had drawn upon the spiritual force and brought about this breakthrough,
the resources it had consumed were truly astonishing.
The intermediate-rank divine soul type resources that had been stored in the room were all used up. High-rank soul stones, second-rank soul cores, third-rank soul cores—all had been depleted in the breakthrough. Now, there were no more divine soul resources left in his hands.
"That's fine, anyway, I've already used up quite a bit over the past year-plus, and what was left wasn't enough to make the breakthrough to the third stage of the ordinary thought state. This is already beyond my expectations, so it's worth it," he muttered to himself.
Without giving it another thought, Song Chi turned and left the Ruins Market.
Having spent a considerable amount of time in the Ruins Market, and now that he had completed, even exceeded, the cultivation plan he had set for himself, it was time to return to Green Moon Manor for a visit.
Besides, more than twenty days had passed during this breakthrough, and a new round of exploration in the Alien Star Domain was about to begin. He needed to go out and prepare properly.
The only regret was that he hadn't managed to collect enough purple Fire Seeds, the strange objects desired by the fire elemental life, over the past two months. According to what it had told him last time, he would probably have to wait until the next Ruins Market opened.
As a result, Song Chi couldn't further enhance the Cang Qiong. He would have to wait for the next Ruins Market after this exploration of the Alien Star Domain.
...
In his personal courtyard, Song Chi, who had just freshened up, happened to encounter Song You, who had just completed an exploration.
"Fourth Brother, where have you been all this time? There have been quite a few things happening at home in the past three months," Song You said.
Song Chi: ??
Seeing Song Chi looking puzzled, Song You continued:
"First off, grandma and the others managed to get their hands on a Fourth Rank Void Crystal not long ago, and the family's secret realm has already begun accelerating."
"That's great news!"
Song Chi nodded, feeling somewhat happy inside. An acceleration of the Dragon Blood Mystic Realm was certainly a good thing—he still remembered he had four of the eight Divine Tempering Fruits.
However, just as Song You went on:
"This acceleration of the Dragon Blood Mystic Realm spans approximately five thousand years, and combined with the 20% growth acceleration from grandpa's Immortal Domain Spirit Soil, it's practically equivalent to six thousand years!"
After talking about the Dragon Blood Mystic Realm, Song You shifted to another matter.
"Also, last month, Six Cousin from Fourth Uncle's family awakened her talent, and it was a Blue Torch Seed, too. Grandma and the others were overjoyed for quite a while."
Hearing this, Song Chi was slightly surprised.
Song Shishi, the sixth cousin, was born to parents who both had white Torch Seeds. As such, her awakening a blue Torch Seed was clearly a rare occurrence.
"Shishi actually awakened a Blue Torch Seed; it looks like after me, our family has another little genius!" Song Chi exclaimed.
To this, Song You's eyes twitched.
Everybody in the family knew that Song Chi was the true genius. It was already impressive for him to have advanced to the Second Rank in just over a year, and now his flagship possessed the combat power of a Third Rank cruiser. Compared to his fourth brother, his own talents were insignificant.
Therefore, to Song You, Song Chi's remark felt tinged with sarcasm.
