Lin Dong gained profound insights from the native wedding, propelling his mental power toward a breakthrough to the fortieth rank. He bid farewell to the grateful tribe, exchanging gifts like Resuscitating Pills and Millennium Encounter Spring Trees, before retreating to a distant cave with War God Hei Long standing guard. Meanwhile, the outside world buzzed with concern over his stagnant demon beast count, fueling speculations of ambushes by rival forces targeting the top contender.

Within the Land of Five Elements.

Deep inside a tranquil mountain cavern, Lin Dong was seated cross-legged on a stone dais shaped by nature itself, encircled by basic arrays that radiated a subtle luminescence.

Beyond the cavern entrance, War God Hei Long loomed like an unyielding peak, vigilantly protecting this sacred site, alert to the tiniest shifts in the surroundings.

He stood guard outside, safeguarding Lin Dong.

Lin Dong kept his eyes firmly shut, his breathing steady and profound, subtly harmonizing with the spiritual energy pervading heaven and earth.

Within his spiritual realm, a monumental change was unfolding. The Spirit Force Black Lotus, hovering deep in his Sea of Consciousness, spun slowly, every petal brimming with immense mental power and willpower.

With his craving for strength hitting its zenith, an unparalleled force welled up inside him, poised to shatter every constraint.

A sudden dazzling radiance burst from the Black Lotus's core, and astonishingly, a tenth petal sprouted from the previous nine, each one now denser and darker, as though devouring all illumination.

This went beyond simple addition; it marked a profound evolution. The Black Lotus grew larger, releasing an aura that stirred the soul, making the very fabric of space quiver.

"Mental Power, finally a breakthrough!" Lin Dong cried out in delight, his eyes snapping open.

As this force awakened, Lin Dong’s mental power officially entered the fortieth rank, a sweeping might surging through him.

His awareness broke loose from bodily limits, expanding instantly to an immense scope never before achieved.

Every detail across a hundred kilometers—each patch of ground, every quiver of a leaf, every whisper of breeze—appeared crystal clear in his consciousness.

This marked the fresh power unlocked by his mental power reaching the fortieth rank — Spiritual Power Domain!

The Spiritual Power Domain emerged, a supreme territory owned solely by Lin Dong.

In this domain, his senses hit extraordinary levels, leaving nothing hidden from his gaze or thoughts.

This domain ability stood apart from the "Ten Thousand Miles Tracking Technique" he had commanded earlier, which emphasized pursuit and location, following foes via their aura and smell.

It could detect the martial auras released by nearby mighty demon beasts or warriors.

Yet none rivaled the Spiritual Power Domain!

The Spiritual Power Domain offered total mastery and perception, exposing every mystery to him within its bounds.

"Excellent, this domain lets me sense all within a hundred kilometers, even here in the Land of Five Elements."

Lin Dong realized the Spiritual Power Domain’s perception worked perfectly in the unique environment of the Land of Five Elements.

Furthermore, hitting the fortieth rank brought skills far exceeding the Spiritual Power Domain alone.

To his astonishment, his mental power thoughts had evolved as well.

He found he could now effortlessly divide his mind into ten distinct, potent mental power thoughts; acting like extensions of himself, they handled intricate reasoning and controlled objects remotely.

Even more astonishing, these mental power thoughts could dominate Heavenly Realm martial artists.

Under overwhelming mental power dominance, even mighty Heavenly Realm Martial Artists turned into puppets obeying his commands, compelled to acts as drastic as self-destruction.

This revelation flooded Lin Dong with profound shock and thrill.

He grasped its full implications.

In coming fights, he’d wield an almost unfair edge, manipulating enemies to clash or yield without exposing his real power.

"Mental Power Monks, no wonder they were seen as the most dreadful beings in ancient times."

"The greater the mental power, the more horrifying its effects. At just the fortieth rank, I already command such terrifying abilities. Reaching the fiftieth rank would be beyond imagination—what power that would bring?" Lin Dong mused inwardly.

Then, he stretched out languidly.

"Time again for hunting demon beasts..."

It had been ages since his last hunt; surely someone had claimed the top spot on the War God Ranking by now?

With resounding yet steady steps, Lin Dong emerged from the seclusion cave.

Sunlight pierced through scattered foliage, casting mottled patterns on him, enhancing the golden glow on his breakthrough-flushed face.

His post-seclusion eyes gleamed with piercing clarity and acuity, as if piercing through all illusions of the world.

At the mouth of the cave, Lin Dong drew in a deep lungful of crisp air, sensing the overwhelming strength surging through his body after the seclusion, a profound fulfillment overwhelming his heart.

He glanced to the side, spotting Hei Long War God standing like an immovable peak, vigilantly watching over the surroundings.

Though Hei Long War God had his eyes half-shut, he detected the shift in Lin Dong’s aura right away, gradually opening them with a flicker of delight.

"War God Lin, you broke through?"

Lin Dong nodded, "Broke through."

Then he asked softly, "How long was my retreat?"

The resonant voice of Hei Long War God boomed across the valley: "Half a day, War God Lin."

Deep reverence laced his tone, his astonishment clear at Lin Dong’s advancement despite being a War God himself.

At these words, Lin Dong creased his forehead slightly, mentally tallying the elapsed time.

"Another half day gone? By this count, it’s been a day and a half since we last hunted demon beasts." He murmured under his breath.

Hei Long War God caught the words and nodded faintly in accord.

He reached out, retrieving the War God Token.

Next, he tapped the hovering War God Token lightly, revealing not just his tally of slain demon beasts but his current position too.

"Indeed, a day and a half without hunting demon beasts. War God Lin, you’ve slipped from first to tenth place on the War God Ranking." Regret tinged Hei Long War God’s voice, though faith in Lin Dong’s prowess shone stronger.

He was certain Lin Dong would soon seize back his spot.

"Currently, ranked first is Lei, who has killed 6389 demon beasts."

Hearing that, Lin Dong’s gaze sharpened, battle intent igniting within him.

He looked at his own War God Token, the figure fixed at 4128 from prior to his seclusion.

Despite inactivity for a day and a half, holding tenth place surpassed what he’d anticipated.

Yet Lin Dong understood this fell short of his ambitions; he craved the summit, the absolute pinnacle.

A light chuckle escaped him, confidence sparkling in his eyes: "No worries. Next, our demon beast hunting pace will leave everyone in the dust."

Confidence and supremacy radiated from Lin Dong’s declaration; he was aware the fresh Spiritual Power Domain would deliver game-changing support for his future hunts.

This power let Lin Dong detect every demon beast stir within a hundred kilometers, along with the locations of all involved martial artists.

Such an almost unfair skill bestowed him a supreme edge in pursuing demon beasts.

He could pinpoint powerful foes, select ideal targets, and anticipate threats to counter them beforehand.

"Come on, let’s resume hunting demon beasts; in half a day, I’ll take back the top spot!" No sooner had Lin Dong spoken than he shot forward.

War God Hei Long, as expected, trailed right after him.
