At the same time on the fourth floor, inside the palace.

As soon as he entered, Gu Chen, who was shrouded in infinite aura, was very surprised, his hands fluctuated, and the aura around him flowed slowly like a stream of water.

Looking at all this, and thinking of what Xuan Tianzhen had just said, Gu Chen couldn't control it anymore and shouted excitedly.

Fortunately, the sound insulation of the palace is very good, otherwise it would have alarmed the disciples in the surrounding palaces by now.

"With the infinite aura, I can go one step further before the Dao Sutra Conference and break through to the middle stage of the Creation Realm. Gu Chen laughed, and then couldn't wait to go to the depths of the palace and find a random place to sit down.

Rumble!

When Gu Chen sat down, the aura in the entire palace shook slightly, and then flew towards the depths of the palace.

At the same time, a whirlpool appeared above Gu Chen's head.

The aura that rushed from all directions was pulled into the vortex and then vanished.

On the other side, a large amount of aura appeared out of thin air in Gu Chen's body, and it quickly filled the dantian and meridians.

"Refining!"

Faced with this situation, Gu Chen just moved his thoughts, and the aura between the dantian and the meridians was compressed into a wisp of extremely condensed spiritual power, which sank into the depths of the dantian as a force to impact the middle stage of the creation realm.

"Everything is going well, you can swallow boldly with confidence!"

The first time he absorbed the aura, there was no uncomfortable reaction, and the only doubts in Gu Chen's heart were dispelled.

Immediately, he ran the Immortal Ancient Divine Technique, and really began to swallow the aura.

Thundered~~~

As soon as the Immortal Ancient Divine Technique was operating in the body, the space in the entire palace changed, and the aura that seeped into the palace along the ground was pulled away as soon as it appeared.

It didn't take long for the aura to enter the palace at a speed that couldn't keep up with the speed at which the immortal ancient gods were absorbed.

"No wonder the disciples can absorb it as they please, it turns out that there is a limit to the speed at which the aura can enter the palace. Gu Chen opened his eyes and smiled.

"It's just a pity that this restriction may be useful for others, but not for me. ”

Sou!

As soon as the words fell, a figure flashed, and a black-robed figure appeared beside Gu Chen, looking exactly the same as Gu Chen, without the slightest difference.

It is the first doppelganger separated from the Shinto doppelganger technique, who holds the Devouring God Disk, and is also an alchemist.

"You dive underground, join forces with me, and bring the aura from the veins over. Gu Chen said to the clone.

"Yes!" the clone nodded silently, then took out the Devouring God Disk, turning into a streamer of light and submerging into the palace floor.

After one breath, two breaths, and three breaths, a large amount of spiritual energy rushed into the palace, and the speed was more than ten times that of before.

Gu Chen laughed when he saw this, then closed his eyes and continued to operate the Immortal Ancient Divine Technique, accumulating strength for the mid-stage impact of the Creation Realm.

However, the disciples in the surrounding more than a dozen palaces were unlucky, and the aura in this area was all moved into Gu Chen's palace by the clone with the Devouring God Disk, and the aura that could be shared in other palaces would naturally decrease.

But this is not a big deal, because not all disciples have the terrifying speed of swallowing spiritual energy like Gu Chen, and a little less spiritual energy will not have much impact on cultivation.

But what Gu Chen himself didn't expect was that it was not an easy task to break through the middle stage of the Creation Realm, and the aura required might be more than ten times that of the previous estimate.

What's more, when I realized this problem, I was already riding a tiger and couldn't stop, so I could only increase the swallowing of spiritual energy, and break through the middle stage of the creation realm in one go.

As a direct result, the affected palaces have changed from a dozen to dozens, and these palaces can no longer share the slightest aura.

With little aura, he could still cultivate, but without any aura, many disciples couldn't sit still, and walked out of the palace one after another, looking for deacons or elders to ask for clarification.

Dozens of disciples gathered in groups and discussed loudly.

"What's going on, why don't I have any aura in my palace!"

"My palace too!"

"Mine too!"

“......”

"Didn't you say that you can swallow the aura as you like and without any restrictions?

"Could it be that you deceived us?"

Many disciples looked puzzled, suspecting that the Heavenly Rank Academy was teasing them.

After all, when they first heard that they could lock their hearts and swallow spiritual energy without restrictions, many disciples were skeptical, and now there is such a thing.

"What are you doing here?"

At this moment, several deacons of the Creation Realm rushed over.

"Returning to the uncles, the aura in the palace is gone. Some of the disciples shouted.

"This can't be!" the Creation Realm deacons shook their heads at the same time. "The ground of the palace has a spirit gathering formation, and it is directly connected to the spiritual veins underground, how can the spiritual energy disappear. ”

"If you don't believe it, won't it be clear when you enter the palace?"

Several deacons of the Creation Realm nodded in disbelief, and then entered the palace separately, but they really couldn't perceive the aura at all.

"Not really!"

The Deacons of the Creation Realm immediately realized that this was not a trivial problem, so they hurriedly presented themselves to the Life and Death Realm Elders.

"Rest easy, we have contacted the elders and will have an answer shortly. The deacons of the Creation Realm began to appease the affected disciples.

Only then did many disciples slowly quiet down, waiting for the elder's reply.

This process is not long, probably more than half an hour.

However, the elder did not descend to the fourth layer in person, but instructed a Creation Realm disciple to come.

"The elders have already understood the situation here, and they specially asked me to tell you not to panic, this is a normal phenomenon. The Creation Realm disciple said with a smile.

"Normal?" Many disciples and deacons of the Creation Realm were not fools, and they clearly understood that this was by no means a normal phenomenon.

The elders must have known the reason, but they were just hiding it.

Thinking of this, everyone wanted to continue to ask, but the Creation Realm disciples who came to reply had already left.

"Since the elder said that it is a normal phenomenon, then it must be a normal phenomenon, so you can just wait with peace of mind. The deacons of the Creation Realm were very puzzled in their hearts, but they still had to defend the elder's reply on the face.

Many disciples were dissatisfied, seeing that the Taoist Conference was about to start, but there was such a thing.

But thinking that this is someone else's territory, he has only obtained the qualification to get started, and he is not a real disciple, so he didn't dare to say anything.

After everything had calmed down a bit, the ancient dust in the palace had finally completely made all the preparations to break through the middle stage of the Creation Realm.

At this moment, thousands of pure spiritual qi had accumulated in the depths of the dantian, and each of them was condensed from more than ten thousand ordinary spiritual qi.

If it is converted into spirit stones, then it is more than 10,000 lower-grade spirit stones.

In this way, it can be launched, and a pure aura is almost tens of thousands of medium-grade spirit stones.
