Under the gaze of everyone, Jiang Chen's body trembled for a full three hours before gradually stabilizing, with only a protective layer formed by Starfire remaining around him.

"Is it... over?"

"So quickly!?"

"No, the volcanic Fire Path aura is surging again!"

"Oh my, he's going again!?"

Just as the crowd breathed a sigh of relief, they noticed the fluctuations within the volcano and turned their amazed eyes back to Jiang Chen.

At this moment, Jiang Chen's body once again emanated a force of attraction, and the tumultuous Fire Path energy surged into his body once more.

"This guy... is he addicted to suffering? How can he withstand this?"

Sang Zhenye has already confirmed that Jiang Chen won't encounter any problems, and his worries have melted into shock.

This is just the refinement of the Primordial Spirit!

Back when he was refining his Primordial Spirit, he had to rest after refining just a trace of Primordial Spirit Power, each trace rendering him in excruciating pain, and it took three years to finish refining the entire Primordial Spirit.

But this guy... does he intend to finish the refinement all at once?

In Sang Zhenye's eyes, there was a hint of admiration. Regardless of whether Jiang Chen could completely refine his Primordial Spirit at once, this perseverance, this tenacity, was enough to fill him with admiration!

Unexpectedly, even in old age, he would admire someone else, and moreover, a young man under thirty. This... this is truly a prodigy!

With a sigh, Sang Zhenye's figure flashed back to the sky, leaving his aged voice echoing by the volcano's mouth: "Everyone need not worry, he's fine, go and cultivate yourselves!"

Upon hearing this, everyone felt relieved. Sang Zhenye was Jiang Chen's teacher and certainly wouldn't harm him.

Having watched for so long, the crowd understood that Jiang Chen should be fine, and a tremendous sense of admiration arose within them.

They were all Cultivators of the Fire Path and had previously considered becoming Pill Masters, but during their refinement attempts, their Primordial Spirit Power couldn't withstand the energy refinement, which was innately lacking in strength during the soul phase.

To become a Pill Master, testing must be conducted as soon as cultivation begins, and once soul purity meets the requirements, one must begin taking elixirs that enhance soul strength, frequently refining the soul.

Almost all Cultivators of the Fire Path would try to see if they could use worldly energy to refine the Primordial Spirit upon reaching the Divine Infant Realm, as the Primordial Spirit was exceedingly difficult to cultivate. But when they tried, they were invariably pain-stricken and failed.

Thus, everyone understood how painful refining the Primordial Spirit was, and after persevering for three hours, Jiang Chen didn't even rest but continued absorbing energy to refine.

This stirred a sense of admiration even among those who were merely grateful to Jiang Chen for saving them but didn't hold any personal admiration for him!

Jiang Chen's cultivation lasted an entire month, and the entire Changlin Academy was aware that Jiang Chen was refining his Primordial Spirit, with some students even deliberately coming to observe.

Through this month, everyone became accustomed to Jiang Chen's occasional expressions of pain and tremors throughout his body.

Within Jiang Chen's Sea of Consciousness.

The violent energy in the air of his Sea of Consciousness continued to burn fiercely, though this was no longer the initial batch of energy.

Amidst this violent energy, a phantom figure hovered at the energy's center, the body seemingly solidifying somewhat, although its size had shrunk from thumb-sized to only a yellow bean now.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a wave of aura emanated from the tumultuous energy, and the yellow bean-sized Primordial Spirit opened its eyes, flying out from the energy mass.

"No wonder Void Nether Realm Pill Masters are the rarest of professions; this refinement of the Primordial Spirit is so arduous, and moreover..."

The small Primordial Spirit scanned its form with a bitter smile, "The Primordial Spirit Power has shrunk so much, though thankfully it has solidified substantially, and it's already imbued with fiery spirit; otherwise, the loss would be immense!"

Primordial Spirit Power is the most challenging to cultivate, and the difference in Pill Masters lies in its refinement compared to typical cultivation, as Pill Masters require a Primordial Spirit imbued with fiery spirit to control Spiritual Fire for refining elixirs.

Cultivators refine Primordial Spirits by solidifying the whole without depleting the original Primordial Spirit Power, while refinement for Pill Masters consumes a significant amount of Primordial Spirit Power in solidifying it.

Because this refinement inherently uses Primordial Spirit Power as fuel, many strong cultivators wouldn't undertake this painful refinement to achieve Primordial Spirit solidification.

Primordial Spirit Power is too difficult to cultivate, and for non-Pill Masters, such refinement is not worthwhile!

But if one wielded a robust Primordial Spirit to perform such a refinement, the strength of that Primordial Spirit would undoubtedly surpass cultivators of the same rank, making their Divine Sense multiple times stronger.

Thus, within the same rank, no one wants to compete with a Pill Master in Primordial Spirit Power, it's a losing scenario!

"Since this refinement can solidify the Primordial Spirit Power, can it not solidify Spiritual Power as well?"

Jiang Chen's Primordial Spirit muttered softly, a glint of brilliance flashing in his little eyes.

Refining Spiritual Power was something he always wanted to do, but due to the lack of an excellent cultivation method, he hadn't acted on it.

Before coming to the Fire Path Mountain, he had already retrieved a beginner Earth Rank Spiritual Power Cultivation Technique from the Archive Hall.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen's consciousness returned to his body.

"Awake!"

"This guy, he's truly resilient!"

"Indeed, within this month, hasn't he refined hundreds of times? How can he withstand it?"

Seeing Jiang Chen open his eyes, the students started whispering, their gazes toward Jiang Chen full of respect.

"This kid, finally done, seems like he has refined the Primordial Spirit to a certain extent; next, he can collect the Spiritual Fire. The Spiritual Fire that I deemed myself unqualified to collect years ago, intending to save it for someone worthy, now appears to be destined for Jiang Chen!"

High above, Sang Zhenye, seated cross-legged in the void, glanced at Jiang Chen below who had opened his eyes, a look of relief in his eyes.

Initially, he thought Jiang Chen managing twice during Virtual Refinement of Primordial Spirit was extraordinary, but Jiang Chen surprised him greatly, embarking on a continuous month-long refinement, which was somewhat disheartening.

However, Jiang Chen's performance also brought him considerable joy, and he finally understood why Hu Yiqiu always looked smug when talking about Jiang Chen!

Having an apprentice or student like this, which master or teacher could resist feeling proud?
