The cultivation technique practiced by Xu Fan is the Dragon Elephant Art, which emphasizes grand and decisive moves, a spirit of advancing forward without hesitation. As for the finer details, the Dragon Elephant Art is somewhat challenging.

At this moment, Xu Fan suddenly felt a surge in his heart and retrieved a book on cultivation techniques from his chest.

Back in the Huang Family's great hall, Xu Fan had seized a longsword and forced Marquis Harden to hand over a cultivation technique. It was the Incarnation Technique used by Marquis Harden to cultivate a doppelganger. To cultivate a doppelganger similar to Marquis Harden's, one must attain the strength of the Zhiwei Realm. At the time, Xu Fan only briefly inspected it in the Huang Family's great hall and had not gotten around to examining it closely since returning home.

Now, taking it out from his chest, Xu Fan carefully read through the Incarnation Technique from start to finish and found that it also required a high level of control over spiritual power. After all, creating a doppelganger from spiritual power is not a crude task and allows for no mistakes. Even Marquis Harden, back in the day when he cultivated his doppelganger, expended great effort. So, when the doppelganger was slain by Xu Fan, Marquis Harden was furious.

The Incarnation Technique begins with some techniques for controlling spiritual power. Xu Fan, at this moment, followed the techniques and gradually controlled his spiritual power into a thin thread, continuously weaving it through his meridians. As time went on, the thread became increasingly fine, and Xu Fan's control over spiritual power became more proficient.

Cultivation knows no time, for those strong in the Zhiwei Realm, each time they enter seclusion for cultivation, they often sit for years on end. Xu Fan was constantly training his spiritual power, and in the blink of an eye, it was already night.

"It should be about right…"

Xu Fan controlled spiritual power at his fingertips to shape it into a flower and with a flick of his wrist, the spiritual power quickly dissipated.

Spiritual power control is an extremely sophisticated lesson, and what Xu Fan managed to achieve now was merely entry-level. To reach a profound realm requires the passage of time, and Xu Fan wasn't willing to wait that long.

Opening the elixir bottle cap, an incredibly round elixir, with three mystical lines on its surface, rolled into Xu Fan's palm, emitting an aromatic fragrance. This elixir was the Third Grade elixir, Mind Shielding Pill.

A decisive look flashed in Xu Fan's eyes, without a shred of hesitation. He directly swallowed the Mind Shielding Pill, and as soon as the pill entered, it transformed into an overwhelmingly restless energy, boiling in his mind.

Xu Fan felt as if he had been electrocuted; his mind was a bloated chaos, and the tables and chairs around him seemed to be driven by some strange energy, constantly changing places, as if pushed by an invisible hand from behind.

Despite Xu Fan's preparation, he was still engulfed by this sudden sense of chaos. His head felt like it was about to explode; at this moment, Xu Fan's eyes were bloodshot, and blood was seeping from his orifices.

Just then, a cooling sensation came over, the rampage in his mind was suppressed momentarily, and Xu Fan took advantage of this opportunity to bite his tongue, a surge of pain came, awakening Xu Fan from the chaos.

At this moment, Xu Fan had no time to fear. Controlling spiritual power, mixed with threads of ice energy, he gathered them into a small dragon, directing it towards the Niwan Palace.

Bang!

Spiritual power collided with the barrier at the Niwan Palace, the barrier rippled but remained untouched, and Xu Fan was severely injured, his body trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing the energy in his mind on the verge of chaos again, Xu Fan mobilized all ice energy to encircle and suppress the energy in his mind, while without hesitation he gathered spiritual power again, charging repeatedly at the Niwan Palace barrier.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Like the beating of a drum, dragon forms of gathered spiritual power continuously struck the barrier, but for some reason, the barrier was far sturdier than described in Spirit Refinement, almost indestructible. Xu Fan's repeated efforts only caused a few ripples, which quickly returned to peace.

Thud!

Xu Fan spat out another mouthful of blood, his body was already stained red, like a blood-covered figure. At this moment, Xu Fan's face bore traces of confusion, reluctance, and loss.

Spirit Refinement clearly stated, white on black, that the Niwan Palace barrier needed only three to five strikes to reopen and open up the Spiritual Platform. Yet, Xu Fan had already struck more than dozens of times, and the barrier showed no sign of breaking.

The energy in his mind remained exceedingly restless. As a Third Grade elixir, the Mind Shielding Pill had extremely potent effects. At this moment, Xu Fan was already on the precipice, he either broke through the barrier and opened up his Spiritual Platform or would be obliterated by the rampant energy in his mind. Rather than awaiting death passively, it was better to fight desperately!

Bam! Bam! Bam!

After briefly losing focus, Xu Fan once again amassed larger amounts of spiritual power, charging towards the Niwan Palace barrier.

If someone saw Xu Fan's actions at this moment, they would surely be terrified. Who wouldn't cautiously use thread-like spiritual power to strike the barrier when trying to open the Spiritual Platform at the Niwan Palace? Xu Fan's reckless act was akin to suicide!

However, Xu Fan had no better option; the pill's effect in his mind had reached its peak. Without breaking the barrier, death was inevitable. Rather than sitting idly, it was better to face the battle!

Besides, Xu Fan was also provoked by the barrier's resilience, so he resorted to such a shocking act.

Boom!

Finally, a booming sound, the barrier shattered, Xu Fan's whole body trembled, and he felt as if he was soaring through the clouds, ascending into the sky. That comfort far exceeded the spiritual power breakthrough.

But Xu Fan didn't indulge in it; within a brief moment, he regained his senses and quickly looked towards his Spiritual Platform.

At the instant he saw his Spiritual Platform, Xu Fan nearly became stupefied. Spirit Refinement mentioned that newly opened Spiritual Platforms were at most the size of a thumb, extremely dry, requiring nurturing. Yet, Xu Fan's Spiritual Platform was as big as a baby's fist! Mist swirled inside, dense to the point of nearly liquefying.

"What... is happening?"

Xu Fan was confused about why his Spiritual Platform was so peculiar. The library at the base had scant literature on divine consciousness cultivation techniques, just the solitary Spirit Refinement, making Xu Fan's divine consciousness cultivation akin to walking wobbly by the riverbank.

Nonetheless, a large Spiritual Platform was evidently beneficial for Xu Fan. Xu Fan didn't dwell too long on it, stood up to deal with the blood stains on him, and began practicing the techniques of divine consciousness application.

Ordinary divine consciousness, without a Spiritual Platform, is only used for probing, but divine consciousness with an open Spiritual Platform can coordinate with spiritual power for attack and assistance.

At its pinnacle, it can kill with a single thought.
