in the void of space.

Han Chen, who was dressed in a cyan robe, sat cross-legged on the ground, pinched out the cultivation seal knot with both hands, and placed it on his knees, and the crystal clear Tianzun Realm Jade was attached to his chest with soul power.

A faint cyan halo emanated, and warm energy continued to emerge, penetrating through the skin, infiltrating into the body, circulating in the limbs and hundreds of remains, and then converging in the dantian cyclone, refining the strong true yuan that had reached the peak of the nine-star sword spirit and tended to be a bottleneck.

At a certain moment, Han Chen's eyelids trembled slightly, and he slowly opened them.

"Huh" let out a long breath of turbidity, Han Chen dispersed the cultivation seal, shook his head and said: "The bottleneck is loosening more and more, at this rate, there will be five or six days at most, and I will not be able to suppress it anymore!"

At the time of the top ten ranking challenge, Han Chen's cultivation realm had already reached the peak of the nine-star sword spirit, because he was approaching the state of mind cultivation, he didn't continue, and directly put down the cultivation and improvement of cultivation.

It's just that he didn't expect that after fighting with a few gods, he had a little understanding in his heart, the true yuan in his body was actually getting stronger and stronger, thick as pulp, and that layer of bottleneck was also loosened a lot.

This is a great thing for others, after all, the Sword Spirit Realm and the Sword King Realm are a watershed, how many talented martial artists have been stuck here all their lives and cannot go further.

But for Han Chen, it was not good news.

In desperation, Han Chen could only use the Heavenly Venerable Realm Jade to constantly refine the True Yuan, and at the same time, he also continued to suppress it.

It's just that some things are not as simple as Han Chen thought.

Although he stopped the cultivation of the True Yuan Realm, he even suppressed it. But the aura between heaven and earth still continued to converge, pouring into his body, and then merging into the dantian cyclone.

This is because of his physique, the ice spirit body.

The Ice Spirit Body is the top physique in the water attribute physique, and its power is extremely powerful, even if Han Chen can't show it like Mo Chen and Ye Youming now, but the increase in cultivation speed of the top physique is always there.

Seven days. It's in this Wuzhen building again. With the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi that the Ice Spirit Body had absorbed by itself, he had forcibly raised Han Chen's True Yuan cultivation to the extreme, making him unable to suppress it to the extreme.

"Well, don't be dissatisfied. Such a good thing cannot be imagined by others. You're good. I even dislike it!" Guiguzi, who was meditating on the side, opened his eyes and scolded with a smile.

"I don't dislike it, if it were sometime else, it would be a good thing. But now, it's not the time!" Han Chen said helplessly.

"Seven days have passed, and it's time to go to Heart Refining Valley with the people of the Nine Great Sects. As long as your state of mind cultivation is improved, your cultivation can also be improved, and the so-called worries will naturally not exist!" Guiguzi shook his head and said.

"I just hope that this promotion time is not too long!" Hearing Guiguzi's words, Han Chen could only nod.

Although the Heart Refining Valley could improve the martial artist's state of mind cultivation, Han Chen would not be naïve enough to think that as long as he walked around the Heart Refining Valley, or walked for an hour or two, the state of mind cultivation would come up directly like taking pills.

"It's not too early, let's get out!" Guiguzi said.

"Hmm!"

Han Chen answered, then picked up the Mo Han Sword, put it on his back, and then let Guiguzi return to his sea of consciousness and walked out.

Out of Wuzhen Building, looking up at the red sun that had just risen in the sky, Han Chen was not in a hurry, he found a restaurant at random on the side of the street, washed up, ate some breakfast, and then left.

After passing through several crowded streets, more than an hour later, Han Chen stopped at the gate of a huge village.

This is a real estate of the God Refining Sect in Turbulent Wind City, and it is also the place where the disciples of the God Refining Sect stayed this time. This time, the meeting place for the Heart Refining Valley is here.

"Your Excellency is the son of Han Chen?" At this time, a middle-aged man walked out of the gate and greeted him.

"Hmm!" Han Chen nodded in response.

"Contemptible Jin Tao, for the deacon of the Refining God Sect, on the orders of the Great Elder, I have been waiting here for a long time, please come with me!" the middle-aged man introduced himself, then turned sideways slightly, raised his hand, and said.

"Although he is only a deacon, his strength is actually in the Sword King Realm, although he is only in the late stage of a one-star Sword King, it should not be underestimated!" his gaze swept over the middle-aged man, and Han Chen said secretly in his heart.

"I'm tired, please lead the way!" Han Chen smiled and said.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man didn't dare to speak, although he was a strong sword king, but compared with the young man in front of him, he was completely incomparable, if he fought, I was afraid that he would not even be able to take three moves. As for the identity of the deacon of the God Refining Sect, not to mention it.

There are 200,000 disciples of the God Refining Sect, and there are more than 1,000 deacons, which is not comparable to a genius like Han Chen.

Then Han Chen, led by the middle-aged man, stepped into the courtyard and walked down the corridor towards the lobby.

On the way, Han Chen also chatted with the middle-aged man for a few words, but maybe it was because Han Chen's strength was too strong, or maybe it was because Han Chen defeated the Absolute Godlessness that made the middle-aged man very respectful to Han Chen.

Han Chen didn't like this feeling very much, so he didn't have any thoughts.

The area of the village is not too large, and after passing through a few long corridors, he came to the front of the lobby, and then the middle-aged man retreated.

Han Chen didn't hesitate and stepped in.

As soon as he stepped into it, a mocking voice rang out.

"Han Chen, you're too late!"

Han Chen followed the prestige, but saw Baili Chitose and Absolute God sitting on the chairs on both sides of the lobby, looking at him with a smile on their faces.

The last small gathering, several people were already quite familiar, Han Chen casually picked a chair to sit down, looked at the two, and said with a smile: "It's not that I'm late, it's just that you came early!"

"Today is the day to enter the Heart Refining Valley, of course you have to come earlier!"

"That's right, you should be like you, your cultivation speed is so fast!" Baili Chitose also rolled his eyes and said.

At this time, these two people seemed much more casual than when they were playing. Even the absolute godlessness who has always been calm has no usual indifference on his face at this time, a little less high-minded, but a little more approachable.

Hearing this, Han Chen smiled and didn't argue much, in fact, he understood the feelings of the two very well.

In this year's Nine Sects Competition, the two of them and Yue Jue should occupy the top three and go to the Heart Refining Valley together.

It's just their own appearance. But it was disrupted.

First of all, the moon that should have entered the top three. squeezed out, and even defeated the two and won the first place.

If that's all there is to it, forget it. After all, the Purple Gold Continent is so big. There are many geniuses in the younger generation. And there are even more powerful people than them.

It's just that Han Chen is different, not to mention that his strength is outrageous. is even more youthful, which gave the two of them a big blow.

Entering the Heart Refining Valley this time, although it is only said to improve the state of mind cultivation of the three people, what is real is an opportunity for the three of them to improve their strength.

After all, the three of them are not ordinary people, as long as the state of mind cultivation goes up, the improvement of cultivation is very simple.

It is precisely because of these that the two of them are so positive about this opportunity to enter the Heart Refining Valley.

To put it bluntly, he is desperate to improve his strength as soon as possible, and it is best to surpass Han Chen.

Without dwelling on this topic, Han Chen and the two of them chatted casually, although they were talking about some inconsequential things, but at this time, Yun Hong and the other elders had not yet come, and the dry waiting was also tasteless, but it was just right to pass the time.

However, although it was a small talk, Han Chen still took this opportunity to ask the two about the Eastern Spirit Domain.

Now that the Nine Sects Rivalry Competition has ended, after the three opportunities to refine the Heart Valley have been exhausted and the state of mind cultivation has been improved, Han Chen is ready to return to the family and concentrate on meditation, waiting for the Heavenly Venerable Secret Treasure to open.

And when the Tianzun Secret Treasure and his party are over, Han Chen can be regarded as completely solving the trouble, and at that time, he will also start to leave for the Eastern Spirit Domain to join Han Ling'er, Han Xuan and the others.

And before that, if you can know more about the Eastern Spirit Domain and even the Eastern Spirit Academy, it will naturally be excellent.

Absolute God and Baili Chitose are both students of the Dongling Academy, and they are the best people to consult.

And in this regard, the two gods did not hide anything, and they all said what they knew, which also made Han Chen have a vague concept of the Eastern Spirit Domain and even the Eastern Spirit Academy in his heart.

Time passed quickly in the conversation between the three of them, and half an hour later, Yun Hong and the other nine elders of the nine major sects appeared and walked in.

"I've seen my seniors!"

"I've seen the Great Elder!"

Han Chen and the three of them suddenly stopped talking and got up to salute.

"Hehe, okay, these rites will be waived. Yun Hong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Since the three of you have arrived, the old man won't say much nonsense, presumably you are all in a hurry, let's go!"

Hearing this, the three of them all looked happy and nodded.

"Everyone, open the portal!" Yun Hong looked at the eight elders beside him.

The world only knows that the Heart Refining Valley is owned by the nine major sects and is guarded by the nine major sects, but no one knows where the exact location of this Heart Refining Valley is.

This is because the Heart Refining Valley has long been used by the elders of the nine major sects to use powerful means, and they have not moved their position, but they have isolated it from the world.

Today, with the efforts of many elders of the Nine Great Sects, the Heart Refining Valley has long been hidden deeply, and no one can find its exact location, only the Nine Great Sects know about it.

It's just that because of the long time, the isolation power of the Heart Refining Valley has long been extremely deep, relying on external forces, it is completely impossible to enter it, even if it is forced to collide with amazing means, it will not be able to enter, but in the end, it will only attract the power of isolation and destroy it along with the entire Heart Refining Valley.

And the only way to enter is for the nine major sects to work together and open the spatial passage that was opened up at the beginning, so that they can enter it.

Sure enough, as Yun Hong's voice fell, the other eight elders raised their hands and flipped over, each taking out a jade plaque from the empty ring, and along with the jade plaque in Yun Hong's hand, a total of nine pieces.

"Open!"

Yun Hong snorted softly and threw out the jade plaque in his hand, and at the same time, the other eight elders also threw out the jade plaque in their respective hands.

Then the nine people each played a share of true yuan and bombarded it on the jade plate.

Airplanes!

The nine jade plaques hummed in unison, and immediately burst out with dazzling rays of light, shooting towards the other eight jade plaques.

The light is intertwined, and it is a small nonsense. Only palm-sized light doors.

The light gate condensed, and the light emitted by the nine jade plates became stronger and stronger, and the light emitted became thicker and thicker.

The light turned into a pillar of light, and the light gate also grew rapidly and turned into a pillar of light gate.

It was only half a breath of effort, and the light pillar gate grew to a three-meter-high and two-meter-wide Cheng dù, and at this time. The Light Pillar Gate also stopped and continued to grow.

The door is surrounded by nine jade plaques emitting thick pillars of light. Inside the door, there is darkness, like a black hole with no end in sight, which is breathtaking.

And the three of Han Chen on the side. It's already stunned. Despite the strength of the trio. He is also a top genius, but after all, he has not grown up yet, and the Sword Sect is a powerhouse for them. It's still too mysterious, and it's the first time to see a Sword Sect powerhouse use such a trick at such a close distance.

"What a miraculous method!" Han Chen let out a light breath and said.

"Hmm!"

Absolute God and Baili Chitose nodded in agreement.

"Alright, the portal has been opened, let's go in!" Yun Hong said to the three of them.

Then the group stepped into the pillar of light gate one after another

"Is this the Heart Refining Valley?"

Looking up at the small valley in front of him, which was only five hundred meters long, Han Chen was stunned.

Not only Han Chen, but also the two people on the side at this time, Jue Wushen and Baili Chitose, were also full of disbelief.

No one would have imagined that such a small valley that could not reach more than ten meters and could be five hundred meters in length and width would be the heart refining valley that made the world crazy.

"That's right, this is Heart Refining Valley!" Yun Hong took a step forward and smiled.

The elder of the Meteorite Pavilion also spoke: "The Heart Refining Valley is not big, but it is surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and in the air and all around, it has been laid by my nine major sects with an amazing power of isolation, even the old man can't resist it, so don't break indiscriminately, just enter along this valley entrance!"

Hearing this, Han Chen turned his head and swept around, the surrounding area of the Heart Refining Valley was a large mountain forest, stretching out of nowhere, it seemed that he could step out in a few steps, but his keen soul perception made Han Chen find that around the small valley, there would be a slight ripple of space from time to time.

The ripples in this space were very faint, and if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't find it at all, but just this glance made Han Chen's heart scream wildly, as if he smelled the breath of death.

This kind of spatial ripple will appear not only in the surroundings, but also in the air from time to time.

"Let's go in, I'll wait for you here, don't be anxious, slowly realize!" said the Elder of the Thunder Fire Palace.

Retracting their gaze, Han Chen and Jue Wushen nodded, and without further hesitation, they stepped across the valley and entered the valley.

Call!

In the quiet small valley, a light breeze suddenly blew over, raising the long hair of the three of them slightly.

"Hmm, what a strange feeling!" said Mochiri Chitose, frowning slightly.

"Being blown by this light breeze, it seems that my heart is shaking my head for it!" Han Chen also frowned slightly, and said softly.

"This is the wind of the heart candle, which can go straight into the depths of the warrior's heart, blowing the heart, unique to the heart refining valley, rising with the entry of the warrior, and then every incense blow once, each time it becomes stronger and stronger!"

"It turns out that this is the wind of the heart candle!" Hearing the words of the gods, a trace of surprise flashed in Baili Chitose's eyes, and said: "According to the records of the classics in the sect, this wind of the heart candle can resist it with its tenacious mind, but it can't last long, if you feel that you can't resist it, you must quickly quit!"

"Can this wind of heart candles kill people?" Hearing Baili Qiansui's words, Han Chen's brows furrowed even more.

"Well, the heart candle is the heart candle, it is to turn the heart into a candle, if it is blown out by the flame, the consequence is that the heart is extinguished, and there is a dead end!"

Hearing this, Han Chen's pupils suddenly shrank, and then his face became solemn.

I thought that by entering the Heart Refining Valley this time, I could improve my state of mind cultivation until I encountered a bottleneck.

But at this time, it seems that it is impossible.

To put it bluntly, it is impossible for the world to have this kind of existence against the sky, the so-called black and white, positive and negative.

This wind of the heart candle is the opposite of the heart refining valley, if the martial artist wants to improve the cultivation of the state of mind, he can only support the erosion of the wind of the heart candle and resist it, and the state of mind cultivation can naturally be improved, and if it is not resisted, it will be the end of the soul and death.

"Okay, the wind of the heart candle will blow every other stick of incense, we don't have much time, hurry up and start to improve the state of mind cultivation!"

Han Chen and Baili Chitose glanced at each other and walked forward.

"Huh, this pressure?"

Taking a step, Han Chen instantly felt that something was wrong, and a pressure appeared out of thin air, like a big stone, and it was suppressed, making him feel a lot heavier.

"This is the coercion of the martial artist in the Heart Refining Valley, the deeper you go, the stronger the coercion becomes, only those who have cultivated a profound state of mind can resist the coercion and go deep into it!" Sensing the change in the expression on Han Chen's face, Baili Qiantose opened his mouth to explain it.

"I see!"

Hearing this, Han Chen's heart suddenly dawned, and then he continued to walk forward with Baili Qiantose.

As he stepped out step by step, the invisible coercion quickly became stronger.

After taking seven steps, Baili Chitose's face was as usual, but Han Chen felt a little struggling.

"Do what you can, wait for the state of mind cultivation to improve, and it's not too late to continue to go deeper!" Looking at Han Chen, who had fine beads of sweat on his forehead, he said.

"I understand!" Han Chen let out a light breath and responded.

Baili Chitose nodded, and then took a few more steps, his strength was in the middle of the three-star Sword King, and his state of mind cultivation was also roughly at this level, compared to Han Chen's nine-star sword spirit peak realm, it was much higher.

After six steps in a row, he came to the side of the Absolute Godlessness, and then he felt the limit, and instead of continuing to step forward, he sat down directly with his knees crossed, his eyes and jaws were slight, and he began to use the power of the Heart Refining Valley to improve his state of mind cultivation.

Looking up at the two of them, Han Chen shook his head, dispelled the idea of continuing to step forward, and sat down directly. (To be continued......)
