When Elder Huo imparted his knowledge about Spiritual items that could raise the level of Innate Spiritual Roots to Duan Ling Tian so he could identify them when he looked for them, Duan Ling Tian discovered that he had never heard of or seen these Spiritual items before! For this reason, he knew it was going to be extremely difficult for him to find them.
He did not want to search for the Spiritual items if there was another way to raise the level of his Innate Spiritual Root. He was elated when he heard he could devour other people's Innate Spiritual Roots using the high-grade Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, to strengthen his Innate Spiritual Root! However, this was only in theory. Duan Ling Tian would have to discover it for himself to see if it worked or not.
"Gu Chun, you can only blame yourself for trying to go against me. If you didn't try to oppose me, I wouldn't have set my eyes on your Innate Spiritual Root!" Duan Ling Tian looked at Gu Chun whom he had knocked out. He raised an eyebrow as he said indifferently, "You came knocking on my door asking to be a lab rat. Don't get angry at me, okay?"

"Elder Huo!" Duan Ling Tian asked Elder Huo, "What should I do now? Is there anything I should look out for?"
This was his first time trying to devour an Innate Spiritual Root. He could only ask Elder Huo since he did not know anything about the process of devouring an Innate Spiritual Root.
Perhaps, Elder Huo might not know how to devour an Innate Spiritual Root using the Elementary Devouring Tactic nor did he see it before as well. However, he must have heard about it before.
"Place your palm on his head and then fuse your Divine Consciousness with his soul. I'll guide you with my Divine Consciousness and locate his Innate Spiritual Root. When we find it, you can use your Divine Consciousness to capture it before you cast the Elementary Devouring Tactic using your hand that's placed on his head," Elder Huo said to Duan Ling Tian.
"Okay!" Duan Ling Tian did not question Elder Huo and immediately squatted down and placed his right hand on Gu Chun's head.
Duan Ling Tian was filled with anxiety, and his heart was beating very fast. He would soon find out if this method worked or not!
If it worked, he would be able to raise the level of his Innate Spiritual Root quickly. If he failed, he would have no choice but to look for the Spiritual items and slowly raise the level of his Innate Spiritual Root.
The speed of him raising the level of his Innate Spiritual Root would affect him greatly since it dictated his cultivation speed.
If his cultivation speed was fast, it meant he could get stronger faster and save Ke'er and his daughter soon. If his cultivation speed was slow, it would take him a long time to save Ke'er and his daughter.
'I hope it will turn out well! No, it must turn out well! I must succeed!' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself repeatedly as his Divine Consciousness entered Gu Chun's mind under Elder Huo's guidance. Duan Ling Tian could not wait to devour Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root and strengthen his own Innate Spiritual Root!
Two Divine Consciousness entered Gu Chun's soul.
"His Innate Spiritual Root is located just ahead of us. With your current cultivation base, it's impossible for you to sense its presence using your Divine Consciousness. However, now that we're in his soul, you'll be able to sense it's subtle aura as long you remain calm. The aura contains a little of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. Now, try and see if you can sense it," Elder Huo said to Duan Ling Tian as his Divine Consciousness stopped moving.
"Alright," Duan Ling Tian replied. He stopped moving his Divine Consciousness as well and began to sense the aura around him using his Divine Consciousness.
Initially, he could not sense anything special with his Divine Consciousness. However, under Elder Huo's guidance, he finally managed to locate Gu Chun's green Innate Spiritual Root.
"I found his Innate Spiritual Root! Elder Huo, what should I do next?" Duan Ling Tian quickly asked Elder Huo as he tried to suppress his excitement.
Elder Huo might be able to easily sense the aura of Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root, but it was not easy for Duan Ling Tian to sense it. It would have been impossible for him to locate Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root without Elder Huo's guidance.
For this reason, Duan Ling Tian was very excited when he discovered his Divine Consciousness had found Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root.
"After you capture his Innate Spiritual Root with your Divine Consciousness, you can cast the Elementary Devouring Tactic with your right hand and let it enter him. Guide it to his Innate Spiritual Root. This process won't be difficult once you've captured his Innate Spiritual Root," Elder Huo said in response to Duan Ling Tian's question.
The moment Elder Huo finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian quickly did as he was told.
Elementary Devouring Tactic!
This was not Duan Ling Tian's first time casting the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic. However, previously, there were no technical skills needed when he devoured the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in his surroundings. Devouring Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root with the Elementary Devouring Tactic would need skills since he was not just devouring the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy but someone's Innate Spiritual Root!
The Innate Spiritual Root was hidden deep in one's soul. If one was not at the Saint Celestial Stage or above, it would be impossible for one to sense its presence through Divine Consciousness, let alone capturing it. However, with Elder Huo's guidance, Duan Ling Tian managed to successfully capture Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root.
The entire process was very easy.
'Devour!' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as the Elementary Devouring Tactic brushed against Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root. He controlled it as it swept out at the Innate Spiritual Root that had been captured by his Divine Consciousness.
Initially, Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root was shining with a faint green light, but it was completely extinguished by the Elementary Devouring Tactic. Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root had disappeared just like this!
"Elder Huo, I've already devoured his Innate Spiritual Root. I can sense a special energy. It must be the energy from the Innate Spiritual Root after I have devoured it. However, this energy seems to be leaking continuously. I've already brought the energy to my soul. What should I do now?" Duan Ling Tian asked Elder Huo as he brought the energy back to his own body and soul.
His Innate Spiritual Root was also hidden in his soul. Even without Elder Huo telling him, he knew he should bring the energy back to his own body.
"Guide the energy into your soul and fuse it with your Innate Spiritual Root. It's alright if you can't sense your Innate Spiritual Root. You only need to bring the energy close to your Innate Spiritual Root. It won't destroy your Innate Spiritual Root. Let your Innate Spiritual Root absorb the energy from his Innate Spiritual Root…" Elder Huo said, "We'll have to wait and see if you can raise the level of your Innate Spiritual Root after that since I can't guarantee that it'll work!"
Since the beginning, Elder Huo had already said he was uncertain if this method would really work. It was theoretical.
Duan Ling Tian had already mentally prepared himself for it.
"We'll just have to wait and see if it works!" Duan Ling Tian knew he would find out in the next moment whether this method was a success or not when he heard Elder Huo's words. His heart was beating very fast.
He had done everything according to Elder Huo's instruction.
"Elder Huo, the energy from Gu Chun's green Innate Spiritual Root seems to have disappeared. I've already withdrawn the Devouring Energy… Can you help me see if there are any changes to my Innate Spiritual Root?" Duan Ling Tian asked Elder Huo anxiously after he had taken a deep breath. He could not wait to find out what the results were.
"If you want to know if there are any changes to your Innate Spiritual Root, why don't you try resonating with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy? His green Innate Spiritual Root should be a great nourishment to your yellow Innate Spiritual Root!" Elder Huo said, "If you have successfully devoured his Innate Spiritual Root, the speed of you resonating with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy will be much faster than before!"
Duan Ling Tian immediately tried to resonate the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy when he heard Elder Huo's words.
"This is…" Soon after, Duan Ling Tian was frozen. He stood rooted to the ground as though he was scared of something.
Then, a bright smile appeared on his face. It was obvious that he was wild with joy!
"Elder Huo! The speed of me resonating with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy seems to be two times faster than before! D-does this mean… it's a success?" Duan Ling Tian was excited. However, he did not dare to have high hopes.
"I'll take a look at your Innate Spiritual Root."
As soon as Elder Huo finished speaking. Duan Ling Tian felt a powerful Divine Consciousness entering his soul. Duan Ling Tian did not resist and let it enter his soul.
"It's a success!" Elder Huo said.
Duan Ling Tian became excited when he got the confirmation from Elder Huo. His face was red with excitement. "It's a success! It's really a success!"
For the reason that many things were hinging on his success, he lost his composure when he learned that it was a success.
"Yes, it's a success! However, your Innate Spiritual Root did not turn green. Originally, your Innate Spiritual Root was yellow, now it has turned darker. Although it did not turn into a green Innate Spiritual Root yet, there are still some changes to it. If you want to change your Innate Spiritual Root into a green Innate Spiritual Root, you'll need to devour another green Innate Spiritual Root at least!" Elder Huo said.
