When the two forces of true power converged, a violent conflict immediately erupted. The incredible pain caused Qin Chen to let out a pained groan, his body going into spasms.

"What’s going on? Why does the Nine Star Divine Emperor Technique reject the true power birthed from this mysterious technique so fiercely?"

Qin Chen was shocked.

Generally speaking, the true powers cultivated from different techniques cannot be blended freely, as each true power has its own attributes.

However, phenomena like the one that occurred earlier, with such intense conflict, are extremely rare.

"No, this is just the beginning, having only cultivated a strand of true power. As I cultivate more of this strange true power, the conflict within my body will only grow. By then, even with my Undying Sacred Body, I won't be able to withstand such terrifying clashes."

Qin Chen felt a headache coming on.

Given the current situation, he simply couldn't continue cultivating this mysterious technique.

Unless he abandoned the original technique he had been practicing.

But…

The Nine Star Divine Emperor Technique is what he has been cultivating since his rebirth and is immensely powerful, originating from the forbidden land of the gods.

Although the ruins of Ancient Southern Capital are quite fearsome, he cannot simply abandon the Nine Star Divine Emperor Technique for this mysterious method.

Moreover, this mysterious technique has always made him feel exceedingly uncomfortable.

He felt a bit unwilling to give up the legacy of Ancient Southern Capital.

Furthermore, the previous first and second layers of the Ancient Southern Capital's testing were actually laying the groundwork for this third layer's technique.

The secret patterns of the first layer allowed them to practice this technique.

The strange true power of the second layer was meant to familiarize them with the attributes of the true power produced by this technique.

Hence, Qin Chen had reason to believe.

The secret of the Ancient Southern Capital's legacy lay within this mysterious technique he was currently practicing.

"That's right. Back in the second layer, I couldn't withstand this strange true power either. In the end, it was only after the baptism of the Thunder Bloodline that my body could continue to absorb it."

Suddenly, Qin Chen recalled the earlier scene and activated the Thunder Bloodline within his body.

Boom!

A surge of lightning erupted, quickly enveloping the strand of strange true power he had condensed.

Sure enough, that strand of strange true power immediately became purer under the baptism of the Thunder Bloodline, and when it fused with the true power of the Nine Star Divine Emperor Technique, there was no further occurrence of conflict.

"This works."

Qin Chen was overjoyed and immediately began to fervently operate this mysterious technique.

Strands of mysterious true power rapidly emerged, transforming into pure strength under the baptism of the Thunder Bloodline.

However, once the amount of mysterious true power reached a certain level.

Hum.

Qin Chen suddenly felt a portion of power split off from that mysterious true power, instantly absorbed by the golden mental seed he had planted in his mind earlier.

"Mm? The golden mental seed is absorbing this cultivated mysterious power. Could it be that the purpose of this technique is to nourish this golden seed?"

For some reason, a wave of discomfort arose in Qin Chen's heart at that moment.

However, this feeling of discomfort quickly vanished. As Qin Chen continued to cultivate, the strands of true power rapidly merged into the golden seed in his mind, and gradually, the patterns on the golden seed began to glow more brightly, as if coming to life.

A powerful sensation radiated from Qin Chen's body.

"What a marvelous mental seed."

At this moment, Qin Chen was completely stunned. No wonder the will of Ancient Southern Capital called this golden mental seed a treasure; it was truly powerful.

At this very moment, Qin Chen felt that although his cultivation was only at the pinnacle of the Mystic Level late stage, under the activation of this golden mental seed, he had vaguely crossed into the Divine Level Martial Realm.
