In front of the colossal stone statue, after Ziyan Liuyun had withstood a wave of spiritual impact, Watercolor Rose and the others stood there with their eyes wide open, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Because even under a spiritual impact launched from a distance of eighty yards, there was no discernible change on Ziyan Liuyun's face. It was clear that she had no trouble handling the spiritual impact at eighty yards — she could probably go even closer.
"Did mental condensation really improve her by this much?" Shi Feng stared at Ziyan Liuyun, inwardly clicking his tongue in astonishment.
In the Divine Realm, to absorb a god's will as quickly as possible, one needed large quantities of spirit-restoring items or potions. But mental condensation was the most critical factor — the more condensed one's spirit, the better one could withstand spiritual impact.
The trouble was that there were no concrete techniques for mental condensation…
Because the spirit was ethereal and intangible — something one could perceive but never touch, let alone manipulate. The only thing a player could do was focus their attention and avoid being influenced by external distractions.
At this moment, Ziyan Liuyun had clearly made progress in mental condensation, making her spirit more solid and compact, which allowed her to withstand stronger spiritual impacts. Otherwise, she could never have blocked the spiritual impact at eighty yards so effortlessly.
Though he had long known that Ziyan Liuyun's talent was extraordinary — in his previous life, she had managed to reach the sixth-tier god-class realm relying solely on her own strength — the extent of her talent was still breathtaking.
After all, even among the many prodigies backed by the resources of major superpowers, over ninety percent remained stuck at the fifth tier, never able to break into that realm.
Yet Ziyan Liuyun's talent still exceeded his expectations.
They had all begun mental condensation for the first time, none of them having learned any techniques or methods beforehand. And Ziyan Liuyun had spent barely over an hour before achieving a breakthrough. That talent was truly terrifying.
After the group's brief astonishment subsided, Ziyan Liuyun's breakthrough filled everyone with renewed fighting spirit. One after another, they stepped forward a few yards, eager to try their hand at resisting stronger spiritual impacts.
Even Shi Feng couldn't resist stepping forward another five yards, settling into a position eighty-five yards from the statue.
But after a single wave of spiritual impact, Shi Feng's face turned deathly pale. His consciousness blurred for a good while before he managed to recover.
"Just five extra yards took nearly a tenth of my mental energy, and I didn't absorb even a sliver of the god's will. Mental condensation really isn't that easy to improve," Shi Feng muttered, looking at Ziyan Liuyun resisting spiritual impact at the eighty-yard mark with a bitter shake of his head.
He had assumed that after enduring so many waves of spiritual impact, his mental resilience should have improved somewhat.
But clearly, that was not the case at all…
"Looks like I'll have to go back and accumulate progress slowly." Shi Feng shook his head and rose to his feet, intending to return to the ninety-yard position.
As soon as Shi Feng stood up, the statue released yet another wave of spiritual impact.
This time, Shi Feng didn't try to resist. He simply chose to endure the spiritual impact head-on.
After the wave passed, Shi Feng felt his consciousness grow slightly foggy, and his control over his body became a touch sluggish.
"The same impact, but the difference between actively enduring and actively resisting is enormous. If my resistance right now were as effective as when I was pushing against it, I could probably walk all the way to within twenty or thirty yards of the statue." Shi Feng took a moment to re-examine the effects of passively absorbing the spiritual impact and sighed softly.
However, as Shi Feng walked back to his original position, another wave of spiritual impact swept through him, nearly sending him stumbling.
But this time, the spiritual impact suddenly made Shi Feng freeze in place, a sharp glint flashing through his eyes.
