An ancient altar stood quietly within the void. Meanwhile, at the top of the altar, there was a skinny figure quietly seated like a statue. Currently, his body felt somewhat icy cold and his breath was so soft that it was nearly inaudible. If it was not because it was still possible to vaguely detect a trace of Life Qi from him, it was likely that everyone would think that this person was merely a lifeless corpse.


    There was no sound in this strange ce. It was so quiet, appearing as though it was isted from the flow of time. In fact, no one could sense it nor reach it.


    All of a sudden, the skinny figure seated on top of the altar suddenly trembled gently, before he slowly opened his tightly shut eyes. His ck eyes were as dark as the night sky. As he gently knitted his brows, there seemed to be a helpless and confused expression between them.


    “Why do I keep failing?”


    Lin Dong muttered to himself. This should be the fourth year he had spent in this ce. In other words, he had trained for four years. Other than the first year, where he was refining his Mental Energy, he had spent the remaining three years attempting to form a Divine Pce. However, without exception, all his attempts had ran into failure.


    Although he had been repeatedly analyzing the reason behind his failures since the beginning, and had reached a rtively perfect state, for some unknown reason, the Divine Pce that he formed only possessed the right form. However, it did not feel as though he had advanced to a different level.


    “Why did I fail... my Mental Energy are extremely well-refined. Why can’t I create a Divine Pce within my Niwan Pce?”


    Lin Dong frowned, while his eyes continued to glimmer. Meanwhile, his eyes were filled with doubt and confusion. Even after fretting over it for such a long time, he made little headway with the problem. Therefore, all he could do was to sigh, before he shut his eyes and prepared to make another attempt.


    “Huh?”


    However, just as he was about to make another attempt, he was suddenly startled. Then, he nced at the stone floor on the ground. At that spot, there were some intersecting marks. However, from the looks of it, they should have been created randomly.


    These marks were extremely rough and simple. Meanwhile, there was a dot, which was connected to several deep scars. In fact, it looked as though this dot waspletely destroyed.


    Lin Dong looked at these random marks before he shook his head in disappointment. Then, he once again shut his eyes. However, a momentter, he suddenly opened them again. As he once again looked at those random marks, a tinge of doubt shed across his eyes.


    This dot seemed somewhat simr to his Niwan Pce. Meanwhile, these interconnected marks had destroyed it. Could it be that the Divine Pce was not remodeled from the Niwan Pce... Instead, one mustpletely destroy it in order to build a new one?


    This was... to destroy then create?


    Lin Dong’s heart was pounding violently. Destroy his Niwan Pce first? What a joke? One’s Niwan Pce was formed naturally at birth. Once it was destroyed, it would cause one’s spirit to drift off. Moreover, the end result was something that he could not handle.


    If his Niwan Pce was broken and his Divine Pce was not formed, wouldn’t that mean that all his Mental Energy attainment would simply vanish? In fact, it might even affect his mind and he could even turn into an idiot...


    This heavy price caused even someone like Lin Dong to hesitate for a moment. However, he vaguely deduced that this might be the true path leading to the Divine Pce Master level.


    Should he destroy or not?


    The expression within Lin Dong’s eyes were changing rapidly. Meanwhile, he was clearly struggling with this decision in his heart. This continued for a long time before he finally gently inhaled a breath of air. Following which, he suddenly clenched his hand before a determined glint shed across his dark ck eyes.


    If he did not possess strong determination, how could he possibly attain great strength? Moreover, how could he possibly surpass the Ice Master?


    After making up his mind, Lin Dong ceased hesitating. Shutting both his eyes, a thought passed through his mind before he arrived in front of his Niwan Pce. Currently, his Niwan Pce was just like a tiny speckle of light, that was roaming around gently. Meanwhile, powerful Mental Energy ripples were being emitted from it.


    Lin Dong’s mind was observing that speckle of light. Then, a thought passed through his mind before the mighty Mental Energy within his Niwan Pce began to shrink and adhere together at a frightening pace. Within a short moment, all the Mental Energy within his Niwan Pce had turned into a human head sized Mental Energy ball. This ball appeared solid-like and its surface was as smooth as a mirror. Moreover, the terrifying fluctuations within caused even peak experts, who had passed two Reincarnation Tribtions, to tremble in fear.


    When this condensation reached its limits, all of a sudden, the Mental Energy ball began to tremble violently. Meanwhile, cracks began to appear on its surface before they started to grow. Following which, many destructive rays of light shot out from within.


    When the intensity of these light rays reached their limits, a bright sun seemingly rose within Lin Dong’s Niwan Pce. Subsequently, a destructive fluctuation spread before his entire Niwan Pce exploded.


    Bang!


    Lin Dong’s body began to tremble violently at this moment. Following which, his Niwan Pce exploded before all the Mental Energy within began to surge forward uncontrobly like floodwaters.


    Lin Dong forcefully endured the intense pain within his head, as he quickly collected the Mental Energy, which had became extremely wild and violent after they were no longer restrained by his Niwan Pce. After all, if he allowed this frightening Mental Energy to go on a rampage within his body, it was likely that he would be shattered into pieces even though he was protected by the Primal Dragon Bone.


    Resplendent purple-gold light swept across the ce. Meanwhile, the Primal Dragon Bone within Lin Dong’s body had also detected a hint of danger. A low and deep dragon roar sounded, before the purple-gold light transformed into numerousrge purple-gold dragons. After which, they formed a dragon barrier and trapped all the rampaging Mental Energy within.


    At this moment, the three Ancestral Symbols have also appeared. Following which, they surrounded the Mental Energy and prevented anything from escaping. Light shed before they were finally able to stop Lin Dong’s Mental Energy from going out of control.


    At this moment, Lin Dong’s heart was filled with anxiety. After all, his Niwan Pce was destroyed and it was impossible for him to restrain his Mental Energy indefinitely in this fashion. Therefore, if he was unable to create a “Divine Pce”, he would lose control of his Mental Energy and his spirit would also vanish. At that time, he would end up suffering a massive blow.


    Although he was in dire straits, Lin Dong was someone who had experienced numerous life and death situations. Hence, he did not panic. A thought passed through his mind before he began to maneuver his Mental Energy and merge them together to form a Divine Pce, just like what he did within his Niwan Pce previously.


    Vast and mighty Mental Energy surged. After which, they slowly merged together. At this moment, his Mental Energy was like a flowing liquid. Meanwhile, it seemed as though the outline of a Divine Pce was appearing stealthily.


    Lin Dong was maneuvering his Mental Energy cautiously, as he slowly began toplete the numerous steps needed to form a Divine Pce. However, this was evidently a massive project. Therefore, in spite of Lin Dong’s abilities, he still ended up exhausting quite a lot of time. Fortunately, Lin Dong was in this training ground and no one would disturb him in a ce like this. Otherwise, the consequences would be quite dire if he lost control of his Mental Energy.


    Time slowly passed. In the blink of an eye, two months had passed. Meanwhile, his Divine Pce was gradually taking shape. His Divine Pce was tall and majestic, mighty and grand. In fact, it looked like the home of gods.


    Lin Dong’s mind was observing this newly formed Divine Pce. Meanwhile, wild joy involuntarily surged within his heart. Following which, a thought passed through his mind before his vast and mighty Mental Energy began to gush into his Divine Pce like floodwaters.


    However, after his Mental Energy gushed into his Divine Pce, the wild joy within Lin Dong’s heart suddenly turned cold. This was because he realized that after his Mental Energy entered his Divine Pce, they neither formed a cycle nor showed signs of spontaneous creation.


    In the past, when his Mental Energy entered his Niwan Pce, it would be akin to a bird returning to its nest and there would be a peaceful sensation. However, this sensation was nowhere to be found.


    Clearly, this Divine Pce was unable to rece his Niwan Pce!


    Henceforth, Lin Dong would have to grasp firmly onto his Mental Energy and prevent them from escaping. However, if he did so, he would never have the time to do anything else. In other words, he was tied down by his own Mental Energy.


    Cold sweat was continuously dripping off Lin Dong’s body as he stared at his Divine Pce. Could it be that something was missing?


    Why was it that the Divine Pce created by him, was unable to rece his Niwan Pce?


    Lin Dong’s mind was spinning rapidly. He vaguely felt that his Divine Pce was stillcking. However, he did not know what it wascking...


    Time slowly passed. However, Lin Dong could not make any headway. Meanwhile, his heart sunk involuntarily. Was he still unable to break this stalemate?


    Seated on the altar, Lin Dong’s eyes were tightly shut while his body was drenched with cold sweat. The cold sweat dripped down from his body before theynded on that old and damaged futon. Faintly, a glint vaguely shed from the futon in the process.


    Moreover, the instant that sh urred, an extremely ancient voice seemingly sounded within Lin Dong’s heart, “Zenith.”


    This voice, that appeared suddenly, caused Lin Dong’s body to stiffen. However, even before he could think about where this voice came from, a eureka moment violently shed across his mind, “Zenith Sensing Art?!”


    “Is that what’s missing?”


    This thought appeared in Lin Dong’s mind. Without further ado, he quickly immersed himself within the Zenith Sensing Art. A long whileter, traces of Primal Chaos Light finally shot forth.


    That Primal Chaos Lightnded on his Divine Pce. After which, his Divine Pce emitted a clear roar. At this moment, the seemingly dead Divine Pce seemed to possess life. In fact, light was flowing on the surface of the Divine Pce, while lifeforce radiated from it.


    Rumble.


    Mental Energy was flowing within the Divine Pce. In fact, it appeared as though they had faintly formed a basic cycle. Moreover, Lin Dong realized that the moment his Divine Pce was formed, it seemed to have established a divine connection with that mysterious and profound Zenith, as traces of Primal Chaos Light continuously gushed towards it.


    Mental Energy churned. Those traces of Primal Chaos Light began to merge with Lin Dong’s Mental Energy. Soon after, Lin Dong realized that after his Mental Energy merged with the Primal Chaos Light, they began to undergo a drastic change.


    This was a metamorphosis.


    Lin Dong came to aprehension in his heart. Therefore, he gradually calmed his mind down before he quietly guarded his Divine Pce. Regardless of how violent his Mental Energy churned, Lin Dong knew that the Divine Pce would be able to truly rece his Niwan Pce after his Mental Energypleted their transformation!


    However... it seemed like this process would require a rtively long period of time. Fortunately, as of now, Lin Dong was not pressed for time.


    Hence, all he had to do was to quietly wait for the day ofpletion.
