During the process of refining the Ten Thousand Thieves Cave, Qin Chen's refining level could absolutely improve by leaps and bounds. Although he had obtained the ancient Sky Patch technique, he still lacked experience in refining and needed to spend time to thoroughly integrate the experiences and techniques within the Sky Patch Hammer.
This was simply marvelous.
"There’s still a month until the Refiner assessment. Under the fiftyfold time acceleration, that’s equivalent to over four years. It should be enough for me to grasp the Heavenly Saint essence of the first great thief and improve my cultivation while refining the Ten Thousand Thieves Cave."
Qin Chen made his decision, his gaze becoming resolute. He waved his hand, and the Ten Thousand Realms Demon Tree began to stir, with endless source demon qi transforming into a demon qi furnace, towering within the Qiankun Creation Jade Dish.
Subsequently, Qin Chen took out the Heavenly Saint essence of the first great thief and the half-step Heavenly Saint essences from other great thieves—four in total, which he reserved for Ao Qingling, Qin Tingting, Master Gu Yao, and Shang Gu Kong. The remaining six half-step Heavenly Saint veins were kept for himself.
Under his manipulation, countless half-step Heavenly Saint and Heavenly Saint auras boiled, forming an incredibly terrifying force.
"Sky Patch Technique."
Qin Chen activated the Sky Patch Technique, drawing upon the Sky Patch Hammer within him to evolve these saint auras into a type of genuine Sky Patch qi.
Finally, Qin Chen took out five ancient saint veins he had obtained and pointed them out, causing these ancient saint veins to explode with a bang, releasing astonishing celestial saint qi that spread out like a roaring ocean.
"All things patched by the heavens, refining the universe."
Qin Chen's gaze turned cold as he suddenly stepped forward.
Buzz!
He entered the demon qi furnace, with endless laws and saint qi swirling around him. Qin Chen operated the Sky Patch Technique, beginning to comprehend every detail of the Heavenly Saint essence and the laws within.
He slowly absorbed these essences into his body to comprehend, refine, and understand, but he did not directly devour and absorb them. Although direct absorption could most directly elevate Qin Chen's cultivation and power, if he truly did absorb these Heavenly Saint laws and essences directly, it would leave traces of others within his body. What Qin Chen sought was only comprehension, after which he would cultivate his own true origins and laws.
Boom!
Heavenly Saint laws manifested within Qin Chen’s body, which he rapidly comprehended and understood. Once again, Qin Chen felt the power of the Sky Patch Technique. With it, he could perceive the essence of this world and the essence of all things, because everything could be patched; everything could be refined, even laws and origins. Coupled with Qin Chen's terrifying soul power, luminous thoughts flickered in his mind.
Runes began to appear, each representing the great paths of heaven and earth, embodying supreme power.
As time passed, countless thoughts and rules manifested within Qin Chen’s body.
At first, Qin Chen was just comprehending, but later he began to practice. He swung his arm and punched out, with the power of origin beginning to surge.
Boom!
The void split apart, creating a void river struck by Qin Chen's fist, echoing within the Qiankun Creation Jade Dish, unleashing overwhelming power.
Once, twice! Three times! Ten times! A hundred times! A thousand times!
A vast amount of saint vein origin energy burned, as Qin Chen continuously comprehended, simulated, and evolved these powers, launching attacks, and comprehending the Heavenly Saint rules through practical combat.
In just a few breaths, Qin Chen unleashed thousands of origin divine abilities.
Crash!
The Earth Saint essence within him, like a pillar supporting the heavens, suddenly shattered and exploded, transforming into countless terrible chains of Earth Saint essence flying everywhere. Qin Chen's face turned pale, nearly fainting.
