The power shifting outward from within the Five Elements Ring was naturally the Fire and Wood energies just coalesced inside it.

Sensing these two forces slipping out from the Five Elements Ring and entering his Chaos Dantian, He Yiming was filled with suspicion.

Of course, he wasn't worried about his Dantian; after all, it already housed quite a few residents. As the saying went, one worries little when deeply indebted, and one's skills are never burdensome. Even if a few more residents arrived, He Yiming would treat it with indifference.

However, regarding these two new occupants, He Yiming harbored a trace of curiosity, and his attention quickly focused within the Dantian.

After leaving the Five Elements Ring, these two forces, like the other energies, quietly settled within the Dantian, slowly absorbing the chaotic power therein. Yet, their absorption rate was not fast, nor did it cause any negative impact on He Yiming’s martial cultivation, so he paid them no mind.

However, very quickly, He Yiming began to feel that something was amiss.

By now, his Dantian contained many residents. Among the Divine Weapon-class occupants, besides the Five Elements Ring, there were also the Black Tortoise Shell and the Aurora Sword.

They occupied a corner, hovering in the Dantian, like warriors awaiting orders, poised to strike, exuding an atmosphere of stern solemnity.

Furthermore, there was the Light energy absorbed after leaving the Land of Reincarnation, and the dark, Yin Sha Qi gathered at Ghost Cry Ridge. These energies seemed to possess independent consciousness, brooding in their respective corners, slowly strengthening themselves in their own ways. Near the Yin Sha Qi, there was also a Blood Condensation Man into which He Yiming had no idea how to enter.

After more than a year of recuperation, the Sarira on the Blood Condensation Man had fully recovered, but its power seemed exhausted. Although it was continuously absorbing the chaotic power in the Dantian, it was negligible compared to its previous depletion.

Without sufficient replenishment of potent energy, this Divine Path Blood Condensation Man was likely unable to leave this place anytime soon.

In the Dantian, besides the presences mentioned above, there was one exceptionally powerful energy: the Earth Divine Power he had absorbed from the Heaven-Reaching Pagoda in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

This was true Divine Power, and it was the only kind of Divine Power he could wield.

Below the Divine Path, it seemed only the peak experts of the Human Path had mastered a sliver of Divine Power.

He Yiming had crossed swords with Old Ancestor Yellow Springs and Franklin, experiencing the slight variations in the Divine Power attributes they possessed. Thus, he knew very well that experts of their level must possess a certain amount of Divine Power. However, this quantity was minuscule, and they could not fully unleash the might contained within the Divine Power.

Were it not for this, He Yiming might not have stood any chance of contending with them.

The Earth Divine Power had always been one of He Yiming’s trump cards, but at this moment, this dense and heavy Earth Divine Power unexpectedly began to stir restlessly, actively drawing closer to the two new forces within the Dantian.

He Yiming's expression shifted slightly, and he cautiously observed the strange changes occurring in his Dantian.

Though there were many residents inside, one thing greatly reassured He Yiming: they maintained no interaction or conflict. Each guarded its own small territory and never provoked the other energies.

But now, this convention seemed to be ruthlessly broken.

The Earth Divine Power moved slowly, trailing a faint golden radiance as it approached the Wood and Fire energies, as if something mysterious about these two forces attracted it, ignoring even He Yiming’s mental attempts to block it.

With a slight shift in thought, He Yiming abandoned the idea of obstruction and watched silently.

Finally, the Earth Divine Power arrived at the periphery of the circle containing the two new forces, and its golden halo made slight contact with them.

At this moment, He Yiming's heart hung high in suspense.

Facing the first collision of these potent forces within his Dantian, even He Yiming felt a sense of trepidation.

However, what happened next was enough to bring He Yiming immense joy.

When the three forces met, there was no disastrous outcome like a Dantian explosion or qi deviation; instead, the three different energies began to slowly merge.

They behaved like the primordial manifested flowers, occupying three distinct positions. Their light intermingled, surprisingly forming a singular, strange entity that began absorbing the Chaos Power in the Dantian together.

He Yiming let out a long sigh of relief. Seeing this scene, his heart was filled with such joy that he almost wanted to shout to the heavens.

He finally confirmed that these two forces were indeed the Fire Divine Power and the Wood Divine Power.

Just imagining that these two forces originated from the miraculous Great Volcano and the even more incredible Divine Tree of Life, one could tell their origins were far from ordinary.

But no matter how He Yiming might have speculated beforehand, he never would have guessed that these two forces would turn out to be the other two types of Divine Power, standing shoulder to shoulder with the Earth Divine Power.

Feeling these three communicating Divine Powers within his Dantian, He Yiming was filled with intense confidence.

These three Divine Powers were different from the Nine Dragon Furnace artifact within the Five Elements Ring; these were powerful forces that obeyed his commands entirely. If he were to unleash these Divine Powers during a confrontation, even a peak expert of the Human Path would have to pay a significant price to escape.

No one could be clearer on the true might of Divine Power than he, who had witnessed the artifact Nine Dragon Furnace and the battle with the Tree God.

As long as he could release all the powers within his Dantian, he might not necessarily be at a disadvantage when facing peak Human Path experts.

With this thought, He Yiming casually waved his hand, and the Fire Divine Power in his Dantian was instantly drawn out, merging into the Five Elements Ring in an instant.

The light emitted by the Five Elements Ring immediately turned fiery red; the might of this Divine Power was so immense that it forcibly suppressed the five-elemental radiance.

He Yiming endured with all his might, forcefully suppressing the urge to unleash this power regardless of consequence.

This was absolutely not a suitable place to test skills.

Slowly, the five-elemental radiance returned to its original luster, and the powerful Fire Divine Power flowed back into the Dantian.

As He Yiming willed it, the potent Wood Divine Power and Earth Divine Power each entered the Five Elements Ring for a tour. Although He Yiming did not truly unleash any power, achieving this single step filled him with ecstasy.

Previously, when he wanted to borrow the Earth Divine Power, he could only employ Earth System Seal techniques, using the Heaven-Upholding Seal as the introduction and the Heaven-Overturning Seal to activate it, to release the power of the Earth Divine Power. But now, he only needed to utilize the Five Elements Ring to easily borrow these Divine forces.

A surge of soaring ambition welled up in his heart. If Franklin were standing before him right now, he would not hesitate to challenge him again.

With Divine Power for offense and the Black Tortoise Shell for defense, he no longer feared facing even peak Human Path experts.

"Hoo..."

The magma suddenly surged violently, as if some colossal beast was churning beneath.

He Yiming's expression flickered slightly; the center of the turbulent magma was precisely where Baozhu (Treasure Pig) was stationed. If anything happened to the little fellow, he would regret it immensely.

However, He Yiming also found it strange. When exploring with his Divine Sense at the Divine Path level just moments ago, it seemed there were no other living beings here besides himself and Baozhu, which was the main reason He Yiming relaxed his constant surveillance of Baozhu.

Suddenly, the churning magma split open, and a crimson figure shot out.

Upon seeing this red figure, He Yiming's eyes lit up.

Even though Baozhu’s fur color had changed, he recognized it instantly.

Perhaps because it had stayed in the magma for too long, Baozhu’s body had turned blood-red. The formerly cute little fellow now looked indescribably terrifying.

However, the change in external appearance only made He Yiming pause for a moment. Upon sensing the surging, powerful aura radiating from Baozhu now, He Yiming's heart was completely set at ease.

Although the little fellow’s aura was still far from the terrifying level of White Horse Lightning, it was infinitely close to that of the Old Ancestor of the Yu Family when they had just condensed the Five Elements Body.

Given the little fellow's talent, continuous cultivation would certainly make reaching the realm of White Horse Lightning no difficulty.

Baozhu glanced at its body and seemed quite displeased with its appearance. It grunted a few times, and suddenly, a sheet of white light enveloped it. As this light dissipated, the redness on its skin completely receded, and its snow-white form was restored.

Only then did Baozhu grin widely.

He Yiming shook his head slightly and shifted his gaze to the still churning magma.

Subsequently, he saw a Fire Dragon soaring out of the magma, circling once in mid-air before plunging back into the lava.

A knowing smile touched his lips. After completing its own cultivation, Baozhu had released the Nine-Toothed Rake, allowing the nine Fire Dragons to freely absorb the spiritual Fire Energy there.

The Fire Dragons within the Nine-Toothed Rake were far more powerful than the small fire dragons He Yiming had condensed himself. After this baptism, they underwent a metamorphic change. They spun in the air, constantly transforming, until they finally completely merged into one.

Nine-nine returning to one, transforming into a particularly gigantic Divine Dragon of Fire.

Although this Divine Dragon still could not compare to those old fellows residing in the Nine Dragon Furnace, it possessed some of their aura and majesty.

Baozhu stepped forward, treading upon the Fire Dragon as it plunged back into the magma, once again beginning to absorb the inexhaustible Fire Power within.

This time, Baozhu and the Fire Dragon remained in the magma for three full days and nights. The moment Baozhu finally jumped out and recalled the Fire Dragon, even He Yiming felt a strong sense of apprehension.

He had an inexplicable feeling that the power possessed by this nine-nine-returning-to-one Fire Dragon had likely reached an incredible realm as well...
