Chapter 268: Breakthrough, Celestial Symbol Master
When this idea crossed his mind, Lin Yan sat cross-legged and took out the Celestial Symbol Tree from his storage ring, preparing to begin his spiritual breakthrough.
Observing the intricate blue-green symbols before him, emanating vigorous vital energy, Lin Yan could vaguely sense a powerful, peculiar energy.
Just by holding it, Lin Yan felt his mental energy being immersed in a spring, with gentle waves expanding within his spirit palace.
"So, this is the Celestial Symbol Tree..."
Feeling the strange and powerful energy from the Celestial Symbol Tree, Lin Yan showed a flash of admiration in his eyes.
"This Celestial Symbol Tree is naturally occurring and not easy to absorb and refine. However, young friend, you have the power of devouring, so you don't have to worry too much. But, to truly reach the level of Celestial Master, it will all depend on your own luck," the voice of the medicine elder resonated from the storage ring.
Lin Yan nodded after listening, and then, with a thought, the Chaos Symbol suspended above his spirit palace leapt from his forehead. Accompanied by a series of devouring powers radiating from the Chaos Symbol, they enveloped the Celestial Symbol Tree in his hands.
And when the devouring power completely enveloped the Celestial Symbol Tree, which had shown no movement in his hand before, it now began to tremble slightly.
Gradually, a blue-green energy was brutally torn away and then devoured by the surrounding devouring power. At the same time, the peculiar energy, refined by the devouring power, gradually seeped in and flowed towards Lin Yan's forehead, continuously flooding his spirit palace.
With the entry of this strange blue-green energy, Lin Yan's spirit palace began to change rapidly as if fire and ice had met, creating revolutionary changes.
And the dense darkness that originally filled the spirit palace began to diminish under the entry of this blue-green energy, as if heaven and earth began to separate, and yin and yang began to be born.
Lin Yan was aware of the dramatic changes occurring in the spirit palace, but instead of being worried, his face lit up with joy.
Because he knew that to truly become a Celestial Master, he had to break the chaos in his spirit palace and create a small world of his own, resonating with the outside world to mobilize the power of heaven and earth and unleash limitless power.
However, creating this small world in his spirit palace would not be something he could complete in the blink of an eye. Fortunately, Lin Yan had the power of devouring, continuously absorbing and refining the peculiar energy, then flooding his spirit palace. Although the process was not fast, it was not slow either.
In the quiet space of the secret key, Lin Yan sat silently while a stream of black devouring power enveloped the Celestial Symbol Tree. At this moment, the Celestial Symbol Tree was continuously trembling, and a stream of vigorous, pure, and vibrant energy was seeping in and flowing into the spirit palace, creating a small world.
This time, if Lin Yan could become a Celestial Master, even in this ancient battlefield, there would be very few people who could threaten him.
Lin Yan knew that creating this small world would take considerable time, but what he didn't expect was that as soon as he closed his eyes, half a month passed.
During this time, Lin Yan's body did not move at all, and the Celestial Symbol Tree, which was enveloped in the devouring power, became increasingly dark, indicating that most of its energy had already been devoured by Lin Yan.
And Lin Yan could clearly feel his mental energy increasing at an astonishing rate, and the small world in his spirit palace was already complete.
It seemed that his desire to become a Celestial Master was about to be fulfilled.
And two and a half days later, the last strand of peculiar energy was absorbed and refined from the Celestial Symbol Tree and finally poured into Lin Yan's spirit palace, completing the small world.
At this moment, the Celestial Symbol Tree, which had completely lost its glow, trembled violently in Lin Yan's palm and, with a burst, disappeared completely.
"Congratulations, young friend, on your successful breakthrough to the level of Celestial Master, surpassing the High Symbol Master level. Congratulations!" The medicine elder within the storage ring saw Lin Yan's breakthrough and joyfully congratulated him.
Hearing the medicine elder's voice, Lin Yan abruptly opened his eyes, and his eyes flashed with a golden light. Then, he began to concentrate his mental energy, and suddenly, a large crack appeared on the black stone ground of the plaza.
Seeing how powerful his mental energy had become, Lin Yan felt extremely happy inside. He spread his energy wings and flew into the sky, stopping in the air after reaching a sufficient height, floating there motionlessly.
What surprised people was that although Lin Yan hadn't done anything obvious, a large part of the ground below began to collapse directly.
Seeing the ground collapsing before him, Lin Yan smiled slightly. He had only casually manipulated his mental energy, but he didn't expect to achieve such an effect. No wonder it was said that a Celestial Master could rival a Nirvana Realm expert.
Lin Yan sat cross-legged again and began to practice his new martial technique, the Earth Imprint.
Given Lin Yan's current state, practicing the Earth Imprint was not difficult. After a few hours, he was already mastering the technique.
After completing his practice of the Earth Imprint, Lin Yan's hands began to change. With the shape of Lin Yan's hands, a mark appeared that covered the entire plaza. Then, with a sudden strike, the already ruined plaza instantly turned to dust, spreading throughout the space.
However, after breaking through to Celestial Master, Lin Yan discovered that he had acquired several new abilities. One of them was the ability to control the trajectory of any object, including humans and demon beasts.
As Lin Yan's mental energy began to gather, the debris started to tremble under his mental control, and finally, under Lin Yan's mental energy control, they began to move in this space according to his will.
It seems that this ability can control the bodily movement of others, allowing Lin Yan to manipulate them to do things. However, the control time is limited, lasting only a moment, and is not very useful for those who are at the same level as him or above in terms of symbol mastery.
The second ability is the ability to erode the opponent's mental energy, causing them excruciating pain that lasts for a considerable time. If uninterrupted, it can be fatal!
The last ability is to absorb the opponent's mental energy during battle. The higher the level of the symbol master, the more mental energy can be absorbed.
Although the amount of energy that can be absorbed is limited, this ability is still extremely powerful!
After understanding the use of these new abilities, Lin Yan suddenly brightened: "It seems that mental energy is really something good. It was not in vain that I spent so much time practicing."
Then, Lin Yan left the secret key space and planned to reunite with Lin Dong and the others.
However, before taking a few steps, what he saw was the scene of Lin Dong and the others being surrounded by reinforcements from the Demon Rock Kingdom.
Seeing this, Lin Yan's gaze suddenly turned cold...
