Chapter 220: Chapter 123 Divine Soul Refining Body Rebirth Technique (Request for Monthly Votes)_2

He had just reached the Fourth Layer of Refining Star.

At this moment, with the efficacy of the Mental-locking Golden Pill coursing through his body, the fourth Star Halo on Xu Jin’s Divine Soul Star was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few breaths, the fourth Star Halo was almost fully formed, then it solidified and expanded continuously.

This came as a surprise to Xu Jin, as the potency of this Third Essence Mental-locking Golden Pill was a bit stronger than he had imagined.

Previously, both Ning Yuchan and Qi had told Xu Jin that the efficacy of this Mental-locking Golden Pill could only slightly enhance the power of the Divine Soul.

So, how significant was this enhancement?

Qi had once given Xu Jin an approximate ratio.

Qi said, discounting the diminution of drug efficacy from taking pills consecutively, taking three Mental-locking Golden Pills in a row could add an additional Star Ring to Xu Jin’s Divine Soul Star, which equated to an increase of one layer of cultivation level.

In other words, a single Mental-locking Golden Pill could enhance one layer of the Star Halo on Xu Jin’s Divine Soul Star by one third.

"So, at the very least, the Divine Soul Star should be able to break through to the Fifth Layer of Refining Star, right?"

In fact, just five minutes after Xu Jin consumed the Mental-locking Golden Pill, the fourth Star Halo of his Divine Soul Star had reached perfection, culminating in the Fourth Layer Peak of Refining Star, and soon after, the silhouette of the Fifth Layer Star Halo began to take shape.

His Divine Soul Star had broken through to the Fifth Layer of Refining Star.

And the potency of the Third Essence Mental-locking Golden Pill had not decayed at all.

"Perhaps the Divine Soul Star could even break through to the early or even middle period of the Fifth Layer of Refining Star?"

But the final outcome left Xu Jin utterly astonished.

The efficacy of the Third Essence Pill was not fourfold, but sixfold.

The First Essence and the Second Essence increased the original potency, but the Third Essence Pill’s potency doubled on the basis of the Second Essence.

If the efficacy at Second Essence was threefold, then doubled again, it amounted to sixfold.

After 15 minutes, when the last trace of the Mental-locking Golden Pill’s efficacy was absorbed by Xu Jin, the fifth Star Halo of his Divine Soul Star had reached its peak, and at the same time, traces of the Sixth Layer Star Halo began to emerge.

His Divine Soul Star had reached the Sixth Layer of Refining Star.

A single Third Essence Mental-locking Golden Pill had caused Xu Jin’s Divine Soul Star to surge up two whole layers.

This sudden realization made Xu Jin think of the Refining God Golden Pill.

The scarcer Refining God Golden Pill, which purportedly had three times the effectiveness of the Mental-locking Golden Pill in strengthening the Divine Soul,

With one at his disposal, how much could Xu Jin’s Divine Soul Star improve after consuming a Third Essence Refining God Golden Pill?

By then, it was possible that the Divine Soul Star could break through to the Ninth Layer of Refining Star.

Upon this thought, Xu Jin couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful.

It was a pity that the Second-tier Star Domain of the Da Chen National Daoist School would open in two and a half days, leaving him little time.

If it opened in half a month, and Xu Jin could Third Essence all nine Top-Grade Star Casting Pills, their efficacy would multiply by sixfold.

Not to say the Middle and Lower Star Palaces simultaneously producing Top-Grade Star Cores, even simultaneously creating Top-Grade Star Cores in both was possible.

Alas, there were only two and a half days left.

After that, Xu Jin began testing the prowess of his basic Star Skills.

After a Star Arrow was fired, even Xu Jin himself was startled by the result.

Twenty-five feet!

Previously, after eight refinings, Xu Jin’s Star Arrow could strike a distance of twenty-one feet. Now, with the Divine Soul Star’s cultivation level rising by two levels, the striking distance had surged by four feet to twenty-five feet.

It’s important to know that most ordinary disciples’ Star Arrow strike distance was only around nine or ten feet.

Even for geniuses like Wang Weisheng and Lu Xianbing, their Star Arrow striking distance was only around twelve or thirteen feet.

For instance, Da Chen National Daoist School’s senior sister Meng Qingqiu. Just this morning, Xu Jin observed her in their sparring.

Meng Qingqiu’s Star Arrow had a striking distance of roughly fifteen feet and would not exceed seventeen feet.

That is to say, Xu Jin’s raw power in Star Skills was now twice or nearly twice theirs.

You could even say that many disciples’ Star Arrow striking range was not as broad as Xu Jin’s Star Ring Swinging Attack.

In this very moment, if Xu Jin were to face Meng Qingqiu, Yan Chen and the like, defeating them would be even easier.

Previously, it took Xu Jin four Star Arrows to down Yan Chen; now, at most three, even possibly two, would suffice to kill Yan Chen.

And that was if Yan Chen defended with all his might.

Beyond that, the distance of his Flying Star Step had also surged massively.

Originally, the maximum distance of a single Flying Star Step was just over sixty meters; now, it had abruptly inflated to seventy-five meters.

However, Xu Jin believed the biggest change was in a full-output state.

Before, should Xu Jin violently stimulate the Divine Soul Star without regard for consumption, he could channel forty percent of his Star Power into a single Star Arrow.

The lethality of that would undoubtedly be immense, likely ten or more times the current might of a Star Arrow.

But after the Divine Soul Star reached the Sixth Layer of Refining Star, Xu Jin was able to pour out sixty percent of his Star Power in one go.

Xu Jin understood this was definitely his trump card!

A powerful Killing Device that allowed him to slay enemies across tiers!

*****

The secret technique Qi Shanye found for Xu Jin, named Removing Impurities and Purifying Marrow Nine Times, or Divine Soul Refining Body Rebirth Technique,

was one of the keys to achieving the ninth and final stage of Removing Impurities and Purifying Marrow, and to cast a Leakless Innate Star Body: a formidable Divine Soul.

One needed at least a Star Casting-level Divine Soul to activate the Divine Soul Refining Body Rebirth Technique.

Utilizing a Top-Grade Transcendence Pill and infusing it with the mighty power of the Divine Soul, one could refine the flesh and purify the marrow, reaching the hidden depths of the human body that Star Power alone could not access—possibly completing the ninth stage of Removing Impurities and Purifying Marrow and casting a Leakless Innate Star Body.

The secret technique stated, the stronger the Divine Soul Power and the higher the quality of the Top-Grade Transcendence Pill, the more likely the achievement of the ninth stage of Removing Impurities and Purifying Marrow.
