Chapter 190: Chapter 164: Astonishing Phenomenon
```
After ingesting the Creation Yuan Pill, Ye Chen clenched the spell in his hand fiercely. The "Rushing Spirit Skills" began to revolve crazily toward his entire Qi Sea.
In an instant, strands of peculiar green smoke started to float around Ye Chen's body.
"It's starting!"
"Ye Chen has already set the spell in motion, finally about to take the step into 'Gathering Spirit,' using the Heaven and Earth True Qi to strike at his Qi Sea, causing it to undergo a metamorphosis!"
Watching the strands of peculiar green smoke rising around Ye Chen, the nine great elders, Fairy Jia Luo, and Jiang Yao in the void were all getting excited.
They had broken through to the Spirit Sea Realm before and knew that this was the beginning of the transformation of the Qi Sea into the Spirit Sea!
"The higher the talent in the True Qi Realm, the richer the Heaven and Earth True Qi that one can draw upon while breaking into the Spirit Sea. The resulting Spirit Sea from the transformation of the entire Qi Sea will be more vast. Stepping into the Spirit Sea later on, one's strength will also be all the more powerful!"
"An average disciple from the True Qi Realm who manages to step into the Spirit Sea can draw upon four to five li of Heaven and Earth True Qi Cloud. Meanwhile, immensely powerful True Qi Realm disciples can even draw upon ten li of Heaven and Earth True Qi Cloud!"
"Us old fellows from the Rotating Pill Realm, when we broke into the Spirit Sea Realm before, the Heaven and Earth True Qi Clouds we drew upon were about fifteen li. Fairy Jia Luo, when she stepped into the Spirit Sea, even drew upon a terrifying thirty-three li of True Qi Cloud!"
The nine great elders reminisced as they watched Ye Chen.
Fairy Jia Luo also gently spoke at this time, "Back then, Yao'er activated a total of thirty-six Spirit Gathering Formations spread over three rings on this Ascension Platform, drawing upon forty-nine li of Heaven and Earth True Qi Cloud, even stronger than me at the time!"
"I really don't know how many Spirit Gathering Formations Ye Chen can activate, or how much Heaven and Earth True Qi Cloud he can draw upon!"
Fairy Jia Luo looked at Ye Chen, who was seated at the very center of the Ascending Spirit Valley's Ascension Platform, with anticipation in her heart.
She was hoping that Ye Chen would draw upon even more Heaven and Earth True Qi Clouds and enhance his strength further!
"When I was at the twelfth layer of the True Qi Realm, I wasn't as strong as Ye Chen is now. He must be more formidable than I was, and will draw upon even more Heaven and Earth True Qi Clouds!"
Belief in Ye Chen was written all over Jiang Yao's delicate little face.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the gazes of the ten great Rotating Pill experts and Jiang Yao, Ye Chen, enveloped by strands of green smoke, had already directed the Rushing Spirit Skills completely into his Qi Sea.
In a flash, Ye Chen's entire Qi Sea began to pulse furiously. Within the twelve great Gang Yuan True Qi whirlpools within the Qi Sea, endless Gang Yuan True Qi began to turn into twelve towering tornados, violently sweeping through the entire Qi Sea!
The whole Qi Sea world was in an uproar!
In the world of the Qi Sea, only Ye Chen's unique and marvelous "Star Tower" remained standing, unmoved by the commotion.
Even as the Star Tower stood immobile, the twelve Gang Yuan True Qi tornados churned the entire Qi Sea up, leaving it with tremendous fissures all around.
This was a clear sign that the Qi Sea was undergoing a magnificent transformation!
Meanwhile, as the world within Ye Chen's Qi Sea was undergoing tumultuous changes, the entire Ascension Platform where he was seated burst into endless Spiritual Light.
Amidst this endless outpouring of Spiritual Light, all of the Gathering Spirit Formations on the Ascension Platform emitted an extraordinarily dazzling glow.
Under the shine of this glow, Ye Chen seemed like a deity seated at the heart of it all!
While the light intensified, all the endless radiance from the Ascension Platform, connected via endless patterns on the ground, started to swiftly course toward the seventy-two stone pillars throughout the valley.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
In almost the blink of an eye, all of the Spirit Gathering Formations on the twelve stone pillars of the first ring glowed intensely, emitting boundless Spiritual Light!
It didn't stop there.
The moment the twelve stone pillars of the first ring released their light, the pillars of the second and third rings were also instantly activated. The total number of activated Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars in Ascending Spirit Valley had reached an impressive thirty-six!
As each of the Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars was activated, great winds began to howl throughout the entire Ascending Spirit Valley, as if the valley wielded a tremendous attractive force. From all directions, endless Heaven and Earth True Qi began to converge towards the valley.
Instantly, above the valley's skies, a vast, incredibly dense, green cloud began to gather.
```
This azure giant cloud was none other than the Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud!
It was the True Qi Spirit Cloud formed when one from the True Qi Realm struck at the Spirit Sea Realm!
When the twelve Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars emitted a bright light, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Cloud in the sky extended to a radius of ten miles!
When the twenty-four Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars emitted a bright light, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Cloud in the sky had already expanded to a radius of twenty-eight miles!
And when all thirty-six Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars emitted a bright light, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Cloud in the sky even reached a formidable size of forty-nine miles in radius!
The area covered by the entire Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud even enveloped a large expanse of the sky above the First Elder Peak!
Seeing the astounding Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud continue to expand, the nine great elders all became excited.
And upon seeing the area of the Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud reaching a forty-nine-mile radius, with all thirty-six Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars being activated, the elders couldn't help exclaiming in astonishment.
"Thirty-six Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars, heavens, Ye Chen is just like Jiang Yao; he has also activated all thirty-six Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars!"
"Indeed, just like Jiang Yao, Ye Chen has an unbelievably powerful True Qi Realm, and the Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud he triggers is also boundless!"
In the midst of the nine great elders' exclamations, Fairy Jia Luo and Jiang Yao both remained silent.
Concerned more about Ye Chen, the two noticed simultaneously that the thirty-six Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars might not be his limit yet.
The other twelve Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars in the fourth ring also began to flash wildly.
Although not as rapidly activated as the first three rings of thirty-six stone pillars, it was clear that these stone pillars of the fourth ring were also being activated!
It was very likely that they too would be activated and release the power of Gathering Spirit onto the Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud!
"Could it be that Ye Chen can activate a full forty-eight Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars?!"
Seeing the twelve Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars of the fourth ring flash wildly, Fairy Jia Luo could not remain calm either.
Having cultivated countless times in Ascending Spirit Valley, she certainly knew what activating forty-eight Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars meant; it was a phenomenon that only the immensely powerful Rotating Pill Realm cultivators of the Taixuan Sect exhibited during their Rotating Pill cultivation!
To reach the extent in Rotating Pill Realm cultivation while striking from True Qi Realm at the Spirit Sea Realm.
This indicated that the amount of Heaven and Earth True Qi absorbed by Ye Chen upon entering the Spirit Sea Realm would be enough to reach the Rotating Pill Realm level!
This was simply an inconceivable scenario!
As Fairy Jia Luo struggled to maintain her composure, "Boom! Boom! Boom!" the twelve Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars of the fourth ring, after flashing for dozens of breaths, simultaneously shone brightly.
These twelve Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars were truly activated!
Together with the previously activated thirty-six, the number of Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars activated by Ye Chen truly reached a breathtaking total of forty-eight!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
When all forty-eight Spirit Gathering Stone Pillars shone brightly, the entire Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud, already covering a radius of forty-nine miles in the sky, began to expand once again.
Fifty miles, fifty-eight miles, sixty-three miles...
In the end, the entire expanse of the Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud even reached a staggering seventy-two miles, completely enveloping the sky above the First Elder Peak in the Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud!
"Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud!"
"I remember Ye Chen was set to strike at the Spirit Sea Realm within the First Elder Peak today, could it be Ye Chen who has caused such an extraordinary phenomenon?"
"To think striking at the Spirit Sea Realm could draw forth such an immense Heaven and Earth True Qi Spirit Cloud?!"
This earth-shattering spectacle even drew the attention of the elders from the Second Elder Peak and the Third Elder Peak. They all flew out from their peaks and stood in the void looking towards the sky above the First Elder Peak, with disbelief etched on their faces.
Not just the elders, but even the true disciples from the Eight Great Inner Peaks eventually took notice of the astonishing phenomenon above the First Elder Peak, each flying out from their peaks and turning their gazes skyward.
