Chapter 488: The Third Primordial Lock!

"It seems that you have successfully integrated the second Primordial Lock. Congratulations, young one."

Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation looked at Ling Feng with a smile. Usually, when he was alone, he would either sleep or meditate to conserve energy as much as possible. However, since it was rare to have someone to keep him company, he couldn't help but become a bit talkative.

Ling Feng didn't even want to lift his eyelids as he lay on the ground and panted heavily. He felt as if he was carrying a mountain at all times, just like when he had first implanted the initial Primordial Lock within his body.

It would take some time to adapt to this process.

From the outside, Ling Feng's current aura seemed to be around the level of forty-five meridians.

When he had honed himself to the point where the Primordial Lock's suppression was in line with his own realm, it would be considered fully advanced. Once the Primordial Lock was unlocked, the power it unleashed would be exponentially greater.

Especially now, Ling Feng had two Primordial Locks within him.

After a long while, Ling Feng finally caught his breath.

"How do you feel, young one?" The Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation asked with a smile.

"It feels like I'm back to the time before breaking through eighty meridians!" Ling Feng smiled faintly, though the smile was forced and ugly!

"That's natural. Otherwise, how could it be called Qi-Refining? Don't underestimate this second Primordial Lock. Even if you had broken through to a hundred meridians, it would have still suppressed you to the level of fifty meridians."

The Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation snorted softly. This was the culmination of his life's work, a peerless martial art that even he hadn't been able to master to the final lock. One could only imagine the terrifying nature of this martial art.

"Speaking of which, young one, when should we implant the third Primordial Lock?" The Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation asked with a smile.

"Let me rest a bit more... just a bit more!"

Ling Feng rolled his eyes. I'm already so weak now, so how could I endure another round?

"Hehe, as you wish!" The Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation chuckled and said no more.

After resting for about half an hour, Ling Feng took a deep breath, turned to look at Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation, and gritted his teeth, "Senior, let's do it!"

"Oh?" The Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation waved, and the Tiance Mirror flew into his hand. He tapped it a few times and then smiled, saying, "This is Great Emperor Tiance's Tiance Mirror, isn't it?"

"Is it really?" Ling Feng took a deep breath and then truthfully recounted the events of the people from Wangduan Mountain seeking him to explore the imperial tomb.

After listening to Ling Feng, the Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation nodded slowly. "Great Emperor Tiance was best at deducing heavenly secrets, so it makes sense for him to use such mysterious means. If you can obtain part of Great Emperor Tiance's inheritance, it will indeed be a great fortune for you.

"Hehe, I must say, I'm a bit envious of your fortune," the Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation said as he squinted his eyes and smiled. "The more opportunities you have, the better your chances of you mastering all eighteen Primordial Locks."

"So, according to you, Senior, I should go to Wangduan Mountain?"

"Yes, you should go. You must go!" Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation thought for a moment, and then raised his hand and pointed at Ling Feng's forehead. "Relax your sea of mind and don't resist!"

Ling Feng nodded quickly, closed his eyes, and fully opened his sea of mind to receive a wisp of spiritual thoughts from the Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation.

Soon, the Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation performed a hand gesture, and a pure force of spiritual consciousness gathered in Ling Feng's sea of mind.

Ling Feng felt as if something had been added to his mind. Then, a loud buzzing sound erupted, making his head feel like it was about to explode.

Ling Feng kept his mind steady, not knowing what information the Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation had transmitted to him.

Soon, Ling Feng's mind cleared up. He felt relaxed. His sea of mind was calm, soothed by a mysterious force.

His spiritual consciousness had also become more refined.

"Uh... What's going on?" Ling Feng was puzzled.

"Don’t you feel that your spiritual consciousness has strengthened and that the range your spiritual thoughts are able to expand has greatly increased?" The Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation grinned.

"Yes, Senior. Did you help enhance my spiritual consciousness?"

"No, no, no," the Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation shook his head. "Though I wanted to help you, I'm also limited in what I can do. You know, I'm just a remnant soul, and the energy sustaining my existence is spiritual consciousness. It's impossible for me to deplete my own spiritual consciousness to forcibly enhance yours.

"However, I did leave a part of my spiritual thoughts in your sea of mind, which can help you resist an attack from a great emperor-level spiritual consciousness once."
