rdship, he looked much more mature. Su Bai stared at Su Xin's face, a smile finally appearing on his face after a long silence.This smile, clearly radiating love, eased Su Xin's heart, and a smile als...The Abyssal Realm, one of the many secret realms controlled by the Nine Saints Mountain, is also a secret realm specially used to hone one's spiritual awareness.

The Abyssal Realm consists of seven layers. The deeper you go, the stronger the refinement on your mental awareness becomes. However, the entrance requirement to enter the realm is extremely high.

Just reaching the first level requires a full 10,000 battle points, the second level needs 20,000 battle points, and so on.

Before Su Xin entered the battlefield, he had accumulated a wealth of military merit and naturally wouldn't hesitate. After spending 10,000 military merits, he directly entered the first layer of the Fallen Secret Realm.

……

The first layer is located on an ordinary little island.

The island is not large and very spacious.

In the very center of this small island, there stands an incredibly conspicuous giant black stone pillar. This black pillar is as big as a house. With it as the center, there emanates an odd ripple, and around the black pillar, there are some shadowy figures sparsely sitting there.

These people are all cultivating their spiritual awareness within this secret realm. Some are relatively close to the black stone pillars, only tens of meters away, while others are over a hundred meters distant.

Su Xin still disguised herself as a cultivator at the Step Into Nirvana realm using the Heiyunjzhu, and she altered her aura and appearance before arriving on this small island.

The moment he set foot on the small island, he didn't feel anything. But as he was drawn to the giant black obelisk, he unconsciously walked forward. After walking for a while, just as he approached within a kilometer of the black obelisk... boom!

A formless power suddenly struck him.

"Could this be, a mental consciousness shock" Su Xin's heart moved.

This psychic impact was weak, and it didn't affect him much. However, as he continued to step forward, getting closer and closer to the black pillar, the psychic attack grew stronger and stronger. He struggled to resist it.

When he reached five hundred meters from the black stone pillar, he stopped.

Can't do it.

At this moment, the waves of attacks on his spiritual consciousness hit him one after another, like ripples crashing against each other, causing a sharp pain in his awareness. This pain was as if his entire head was about to explode.

Su Xin knew that he had now reached the limit of what his spiritual consciousness could bear.

If he walks any further, his spiritual consciousness could very well collapse.

He endured the pain of each impact, sitting down and trying his best to adapt to this onslaught of consciousness.

Spiritual consciousness impact, as long as it doesn't overwhelm a person immediately, that person can continuously adapt and improve under this impact. This is also the first level of the abyssal realm, the tempering effect on spiritual consciousness.

Those gathered around the black monolith now are striving to adapt to the onslaught of spiritual consciousness, and pushing forward as far as they can. The farther they go, the higher their level of spiritual awareness ascends.

Su Xin's original spiritual awareness was only at the peak level of breaking the void, not yet reaching the ultimate state of the breaking the void realm. There was a huge gap between him and the Nirvana realm. At first, he could only get close to the black stone pillar within a radius of 500 meters before reaching his limit.

As his spiritual awareness continued to adapt, after just an hour, he took two more steps forward and then stopped, continuing to acclimate and train.

Time goes by day by day.

Su Xin's spiritual consciousness was also gradually improving under those repeated shocks.

Originally, he could only approach the black stone pillar within a radius of five hundred meters. However, after half a month, he had reached a position just three hundred meters away from the black stone pillar. This short distance of two hundred meters already demonstrated his progress in spiritual awareness over the past half month.

And while he was in the midst of refining his spiritual consciousness, some powerful beings around the black stone pillar had already noticed his existence.

"Who is this person Their spiritual awareness is so weak"

Those who had noticed Su Xin's strength all looked quite strange.

The Abyssal Realm is controlled by the Nine Holy Mountains. To enter and cultivate within the Abyssal Realm, one must pay war merit. Therefore, those who can enter the Abyssal Realm are almost all Nirvana Realm experts with relatively strong mental awareness.

They were able to get within 200 meters of the black stone pillar right from the start.

Ke Su Xin, having spent half a month in this abyssal realm, has only managed to reach within 300 meters of the black stone pillar. This naturally piques the curiosity of all the powerful figures present.

“Although it was a step towards Nirvana cultivation, why was his spiritual consciousness so weak”

"Could it be that they're just Nirvana Realm cultivators who managed to break through thanks to special treasures"

"The spiritual awareness is so weak, and its strength is probably not very great."

These people were just muttering jokes behind his back, but nobody paid any attention to Su Xin and instead practiced on their own.

> A month of time had passed quickly, and Su Xin's training in the first layer of this sinkhole realm was coming to an end. However, at this moment, he was still a full two hundred and forty meters away from that black stone pillar.

"Wow!"

Having walked out of the first layer of the Abyssal Depths, Su Xin also let out a breath.

This past month has been a continuous assault on my mental and spiritual awareness. The pain of that intrusion is not pleasant, yet internally he remains quite joyful.

After all, he made great progress in the first layer of space.

From the beginning, he could only barely approach within 500 meters. Now he was able to get as close as 240 meters, an increase of 260 meters. His spiritual awareness had grown significantly.

As Su Xin's heart moved, his spiritual consciousness spread out in an instant. With all his might, it directly covered a radius of seven or eight li around him.

"Previously, I could only barely cover a radius of one li with all my might. Now, I can directly cover seven or eight lis. Su Xin couldn't help but smile."

Of course, although his spiritual awareness has greatly improved, he is still some way off from meeting the requirements for nirvana.

The spiritual consciousness of a Nirvana Realm cultivator, when fully exerted, can cover an area exceeding ten miles. Apparently, he is still slightly lacking at present.

"There's no choice but to continue to the second floor," Su Xin thought silently.

Su Xin returned to the entrance of the Abyssal Secret Realm.

“Are you going to the second floor” The aged gatekeeper at the entrance gave Su Xin a strange look.

"Anything wrong" Su Xin asked doubtfully.

"That's not true," the weathered elder chuckled, "As long as a warrior under the banner of the Jiusheng Mountain camp can afford the corresponding military merit, they can enter any level of this Abyssal Secret Realm. And indeed, the second layer of the Abyssal Secret Realm has a greater effect on mental awareness refinement than the first."

Su Xin nodded slightly, paid the military merit, and this vicissitudes old man drew a hand toward the side entrance. A space channel appeared in front of Su Xin.

"Go on in, good luck," the weathered old man said with a smile.

Su Xin, though feeling a bit strange, still followed the spatial passage and entered the second layer of the Abyssal Secret Realm.

The second layer of space was still on an island, but this one was desolate.

"The first layer is a spiritual consciousness impact, but what about this second layer" Su Xin stood on this desolate island, a hint of expectation in his heart.

...can suddenly...

BOOM!!

The entire island was like a gigantic furnace, with endless white flames rising from the earth, burning wildly.

In an instant, the entire island, both land and void, was engulfed in a sea of white flames. Su Xin was also within this white inferno.

For a moment…

"Damn it!!"

Su Xin let out a furious roar, his face contorted in agony, his expression bordering on madness. His entire body was hunched over as he endured an unprecedented pain.

This pain did not come from the burning of the white flames around him. Though he was in this sea of white fire, his body suffered no damage whatsoever.

But that raging white flame went straight for his spiritual consciousness!

"Ahhh!!!"

At this moment, he only felt his entire spiritual consciousness was completely immersed in a sea of fire, being thoroughly roasted and burned. That feeling, which was utterly indescribable, seemed to emanate from the depths of his soul, a terrifying pain that drove him to roar and rage madly, frantically venting his own fury.

He had endured pain before.

When his bloodline first began to awaken, the unprecedented pain left a deep impression on him. The pain of bloodline awakening was, after all, physical. But this mental and spiritual kind of roasting and burning produced a sharper, more intense agony.

Under this frantic, spiritual consciousness, the intense baking lasted for a full two hours. Then, with a whoosh~~~, the boundless white flames across the island abruptly dissipated.

Su Xin's mental and spiritual pain also gradually began to dissipate.

"Is it over" Su Xin's eyes turned bloodshot, and veins throbbed on his forehead and hands as if they were about to burst. His entire body was still trembling slightly.

This was the first time he had endured such a profound pain on a spiritual level.

This feeling, it's too terrifying!

But at the same time, he also found that his spiritual consciousness, under that just crazy baking and burning, had indeed improved noticeably.

And an hour later……BOOM!!

The endless white flame rose again, and Su Xin's spiritual consciousness fell into an unprecedented pain.

Through each struggle, Su Xin also fully understood.

This second layer of the secret realm is a furnace for the spirit, burning relentlessly for two hours at a time. After two hours, it stops, giving him an hour to rest and catch his breath before the searing begins anew.

And he was completely caught in this agonizing cycle, constantly struggling, constantly tormented.

This agony lasted for a whole month. Only then did Su Xin finally emerge from the second layer of this secret realm.

"Oh, you're out"

When seeing Su Xin emerge from the secret realm, the weathered old man who guarded the entrance to the secret realm let out a sinister smile.

Seeing this, Su Xin's mouth twitched involuntarily.

He finally understood why the old man's gaze had been so strange when he was about to enter the second layer of the secret realm.

It turned out that the second level secret realm was a test of one's spiritual awareness, it was terrifyingly difficult!

Yes, it's terrifying!

The pain he endured that month was simply unimaginable.

Fortunately, this kind of pain only lasted for a month. If it had gone on for any longer, I'm afraid he would have been driven completely mad.

"If I had known this, I would have rather spent more battle merit points to go to the third-layer secret realm," Su Xin gritted his teeth.

Although he endured a whole month of torment, it has to be said that the past month's refinement on his mental awareness has been truly remarkable.

As Su Xin spread his spiritual consciousness, it instantly enveloped an area of nearly twenty miles. This also slightly improved the look on Su Xin's face.

Pushing with all one's might, the mental consciousness covers nearly twenty li. This is already close to the level of a two-step Nirvana Realm expert.

"Spiritual awareness is sufficient now. Next, it's time to prepare for a breakthrough."

Su Xin clenched his hands, and his heart grew fervent.

……

On the summit of Mount Sixth Holy, on that meditative platform where one could find inner peace, Su Xin sat cross-legged in meditation.

He didn't try to break through directly, but first he tried his best to calm both his inner self and his consciousness completely.

When Su Xin's heart was calm enough, it had already been three days.

"That's about it

"

Su Xin opened his eyes and with a flick of his hand, took out the Dao Fruit he had obtained in the Tianshui Secret Realm.

He took a deep breath and swallowed it down.

The Dao fruit can enable one to 'enter the Dao,' entering a mysterious and profound state, thereby ushering in an opportunity for breakthrough.

Generally speaking, as long as all aspects meet the requirements of breaking through the Nirvana realm, and then swallow a Dao fruit, in the end, nine out of ten can break through.

And Su Xin is now fully capable in every aspect, and in terms of state of mind, comprehension, swordsmanship, and accumulation, he far surpasses the average Nirvana Realm cultivator. With the help of his Dao fruit, this breakthrough process was very smooth, it could be said that it happened naturally and effortlessly, without any resistance.

Nirvana Realm, arrived

Su Xin chuckled, sensing that the bottleneck within her had loosened.

The cultivation has already broken through, and the transformation has also begun.

……rowed.Boom!!His sword style instantly changed, becoming frenzied and scorching hot.For a moment, the sword glow was like lightning, and the terrifying sword shadow directly enveloped the beggar boy."N...
