Chapter 272: Elevation

After the expansion of the Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land reached a temporary halt.

The second and third tasks Ye Qingxuan needed to accomplish.

Were to elevate his own Profound Meaning realm and his mastery of the Four Arts of Cultivation.

After his cultivation base advanced to the mid-stage of Soul Transformation, the Profound Meaning realm Ye Qingxuan could withstand increased.

In his current state, he could fully elevate his own Profound Meaning rules to the two-tenths realm.

Given his previous accumulation of understanding of heaven and earth, elevating his own Profound Meaning rules was a trivial matter.

In the following years, Ye Qingxuan did not sit in one place cultivating.

Instead, he began traveling across the various regions of the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven, merging his spiritual sense with heaven and earth to observe the changes within the world.

As time flowed, Ye Qingxuan quickly fell into a state of comprehending the Dao.

Within his sea of consciousness, the major elemental Profound Meanings surrounding his Immortal Soul began to constantly transform and perfect themselves.

Ye Qingxuan spent merely three years.

Combined with his cultivation base advancing to the mid-stage of Soul Transformation.

A mid-stage Soul Transformation cultivation base, plus over a dozen Profound Meaning rules at the two-tenths realm, was enough to cause his combat power to surge.

Even though his current cultivation base could not fully unleash the power of the Profound Meaning rules.

Elevating his Four Arts of Cultivation all to the peak of the sixth tier.

He successfully elevated all the elemental Profound Meaning rules he had comprehended to the two-tenths realm.

Facing ordinary peak Soul Transformation experts.

Three years later, Ye Qingxuan, who had been wandering aimlessly, suddenly stopped.

Then, for his various avatars traveling abroad in the future, the various sixth-tier supreme-grade trump cards they used would no longer need to be purchased externally.

After elevating his Profound Meaning realm, Ye Qingxuan took out the various sixth-tier spiritual materials stored within the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven.

Even if he could not kill the opponent, he could at least maintain an undefeated situation.

Ye Qingxuan could now attempt to refine supreme-grade magic treasures, sixth-tier supreme-grade talismans, sixth-tier supreme-grade elixirs, and delve into sixth-tier supreme-grade arrays.

The mysteries of the various Profound Meaning rules flowing in his eyes gradually vanished, and his eyes returned to clarity.

He began to elevate his mastery of the Four Arts of Cultivation.

But the combat power his original body could now unleash.

Within the palm of his Immortal Soul, the seven embryonic Dao characters representing minor divine abilities were also constantly evolving toward perfection.

As long as his mastery of the Dao of Alchemy, the Dao of Arrays, the Dao of Artifacts, and the Dao of Talismans were all elevated to the peak of the sixth tier.

After the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land advanced to the fifth tier, the power of heaven and earth Ye Qingxuan could control increased greatly.

Sensing the changes within himself, Ye Qingxuan smiled slightly.

This way, Ye Qingxuan could save a considerable amount of costs.

In this state of merging with the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven and heaven and earth.

The spirit stones he had earned previously.

Besides daily expenses, purchasing spirit mines, and the corpses of the Green Demon Clan.

Most of the remaining stored spirit stones were spent on purchasing talismans.

In these years, the various sixth-tier talismans used by his various avatars were by no means few.

At the very beginning, most of these sixth-tier talismans were purchased externally by Ye Qingxuan.

It was only later, after his cultivation base increased and the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land continued to advance.

That his own Dao of Talismans began to involve the sixth-tier realm, which reduced the external purchase of some sixth-tier talismans.

Now, as long as this seclusion proceeds smoothly.

Elevating the cultivation and mastery of the Four Arts of Cultivation all to the peak of the sixth tier.

Then he could completely break free from the situation of needing to externally purchase sixth-tier items.

With anticipation, Ye Qingxuan began to enter a state of seclusion once more to comprehend the mysteries of the Four Arts of Cultivation.

He possessed an Immortal Soul, a trait only Immortal Realm cultivators could have, and his comprehension was against the heavens.

As long as the controlled power met the standard, comprehending the sixth-tier realms of Alchemy, Artifacts, Arrays, and Talismans was actually not difficult.

It was merely that the knowledge involved was too vast, requiring some time to integrate and understand.

Spending more than six years.

Ye Qingxuan sequentially elevated the mastery of the Dao of Alchemy, Artifacts, Arrays, and Talismans all to the peak of the sixth-tier level.

After achieving the purpose of the seclusion.

Ye Qingxuan stood up, stretched, and glanced at the few supreme-grade magic treasures, some sixth-tier supreme-grade talismans, array discs, and elixirs casually placed on the ground.

With a wave of his hand, he stored all the things he had refined over these six years on the ground into his storage ring.

"Next, it is time to upgrade the arrays within the Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land."

Having spoken, Ye Qingxuan took a step and left the peak where he had secluded himself within the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven.

He arrived before the Great Smelting Array at the center of the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven.

Currently, the Great Smelting Array was still at the upper-grade sixth-tier level.

Elevating the level of the Great Smelting Array could accelerate its smelting of spirit mines, allowing the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven to analyze the faint elements contained within the spirit mines faster.

Within the current Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land, there were a total of six major arrays.

Besides the upper-grade sixth-tier Great Smelting Array, there were also:

The upper-grade sixth-tier Great Energy Conversion Array, which accelerated the conversion efficiency of chaotic energy and void energy within the Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land.

The upper-grade sixth-tier Earth Vein Array, which accelerated the condensation speed of earth energy and sped up the growth of spiritual plants.

The upper-grade sixth-tier Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land Purification Array, which could purify alien energies and transform them into primordial energy mixed with the primordial source.

A sixth-grade superior-grade World-Suppressing Great Array that suppresses the heaven and earth of the Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land, allowing it to release more of the heaven and earth's power.

And finally, the Minor Sacrificial Array, used to communicate with the Earthly Profound Realm through the Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land for sacrifices to the Green Demon Clan.

These arrays, except for the Minor Sacrificial Array.

Ye Qingxuan prepared to upgrade the others to the sixth-grade supreme-grade level.

Especially the sixth-grade superior-grade World-Suppressing Great Array.

This array was set up by Ye Qingxuan using seventh-grade World-Suppressing Stones; its current power is far from reaching its limit.

Without needing much auxiliary material, Ye Qingxuan could easily upgrade the World-Suppressing Great Array to the sixth-grade supreme-grade level.

Besides that, the area of the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land has greatly increased.

The Energy-Conversion Great Array and the Earth-Vein Great Array can both be expanded in scale to further assist the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land.

This is one of the methods Ye Qingxuan has thought of so far to accelerate the growth speed of the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land.

After making his decision.

Ye Qingxuan became busy again.

The other arrays were fine.

But expanding the scale of the Energy-Conversion Great Array and the Earth-Vein Great Array would require Ye Qingxuan to spend a considerable amount of time.

Fortunately, over these years, Ye Qingxuan had stored quite a number of various sixth-grade spiritual materials.

There was no need to waste time having the Tianfu Shop purchase additional auxiliary materials.

As special array discs were forged one by one, Ye Qingxuan manipulated the heaven and earth power of the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land.

He placed these array discs in various locations throughout the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land.

Time passed; by the time all the arrays in the Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land had been upgraded and expanded, more than seven years had gone by.

Of those seven-plus years, the vast majority was spent on expanding the scale of the Energy-Conversion Great Array and the Earth-Vein Great Array.

Fortunately, these seven years were not wasted by Ye Qingxuan.

After all the arrays were upgraded and expanded, the growth speed of the entire Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land increased by about twenty percent.

It may not seem like much, but given the scale of the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land, Ye Qingxuan was satisfied.

On the mountain peak within the Qingxuan Grotto where Ye Qingxuan frequently secluded himself for cultivation.

Ye Qingxuan stood with his hands clasped behind his back, looking contentedly at the vast heaven and earth before him.

Thus, his seclusion could finally come to an end.

From before and after the advancement of the Qingxuan Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land, from the moment his main consciousness returned to his physical body until now.

Ye Qingxuan had been in seclusion for about fifty-four years.

He took out his disciple token to unlock it and looked at the information that had appeared on it during his seclusion; Ye Qingxuan's eyes flickered slightly.

With a single step, he left the Qingxuan Grotto.
