The spiritual energy devoured by the Si Bu Xiang was channeled back in massive quantities into Chen Xuan’s Dao-Heart world, where he absorbed it with ease.
Chen Xuan’s spiritual consciousness had already reached the entry level of the "Terror" grade. Relying on conventional means—such as absorbing the soul energy of Soul-Devouring Beasts within the Eight-Step Pagoda—no longer provided him with the slightest improvement. Therefore, the spiritual energy of the Old Day Sacrificial Daoists had become his sole source of growth.
The Si Bu Xiang had consumed the spiritual energy of several Old Day Sacrificial Daoists, storing it all away. Chen Xuan could absorb and integrate it gradually, and after this latest round, he felt a very significant boost. He estimated that if he entered the Eight-Step Pagoda and used the fifty-fold time dilation to cultivate for several more decades, he could ascend to the minor achievement stage of the "Terror" grade.
