nIn the inheritance ground, stone statue cemetery.
nThe heart of the Green Lotus True Body stirred. As though he sensed something, he woke up from his cultivation comprehension and received the information from the Dragon True Body.
nBoth true bodies were Su Zimo and their minds were connected – there was no difference.
nThe Green Lotus True Body smiled gently when it sensed the joy of the Dragon True Body.
nThe Dragon True Body cultivated smoothly and obtained an opportunity to become the young master of the Dragon race and reign over the five lineages. It was a firm foothold and the Green Lotus True Body no longer had to worry about his counterpart.
nThe Green Lotus True Body was in no hurry to enter the Dharma Characteristic realm.
nOr rather, the reason why he came to the Dao Inheritance Ground was not because he wanted his cultivation to advance, but because he wanted to deduce the Martial Dao!
nIn truth, from the moment he arrived at the Dao Inheritance Ground, the Green Lotus True Body had already prepared for the worst.
nThat was… the failure of the deduction!
nTo create a grand Dao unlike the immortal, Buddhist and fiend Daos such that mortals without spirit roots could cultivate – how difficult was that?
nThroughout history, countless wise sages and experts exhausted their entire lives to no avail.
nThat was the case for the Mighty Figure of Tomb Sect in the ancient battlefield as well.
nHowever, Su Zimo was only a Dharma Characteristic Dao Lord.
nHe knew very well that this was a path of no return.
nSince he was already on it, he could only continue until the end of his life!
nHowever, he did not regret it.
nIn fact, Su Zimo was mentally prepared for the fact that his deduction would fail and his Green Lotus True Body would pass away at the end of its lifespan!
nThat was the worst possible as well as the most likely outcome!
nSu Zimo severed his connection with his Dragon True Body and immersed himself in the cultivation technique of Half-Martial Ancestor Instant, comprehending and verifying it repeatedly.
nEven though he cultivated the cultivation techniques of the immortal, Buddhist and fiend sects, he had no clue how to deduce the Martial Dao immediately.
nWhat he wanted to do was to comprehend all the 30 odd inheritances in the cemetery and memorize them. He wanted to fuse the essence of the cultivation techniques of the immortal, Buddhist and fiend sects and find a possible path!
nHe wanted to find a possible path to alter fate!
nCultivation was endless.
nIt was the same day after day.
nIt had only been three years on Tianhuang Mainland, slightly more than a thousand days.
nHowever, Su Zimo had already spent more than a thousand years in the cemetery beneath the stone statue of Half-Martial Ancestor Instant due to the flow of time there!
nPrior to this, Su Zimo was only more than a hundred years old.
nFor Void Reversions a hundred years old was equivalent to a youth.
nBut now, after more than a thousand years, Su Zimo had already become a young man at the Void Reversion realm.
nHe had never cultivated for such a long time.
nHowever, the thousand years were not wasted after all.
nIn the stone statue cemetery, he had already comprehended more than 30 ancient inheritances of the immortal, Buddhist and fiend sects, including the Immense Heaven Sea Burial Secret Manual, Apocalyptic Heavenly Fiend Manual, Great Might Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva Sutra and so on!
nThe Dao Inheritance Ground was a world of its own.
nIt was impossible for his cultivation to advance here.
nAlthough Su Zimo’s cultivation had not improved after more than a thousand years, his combat strength had already reached an extremely terrifying level after comprehending more than 30 inheritances!
nThe 30 odd stone statues had been passed down from the ancient era.
nNobody had entered this place before.
nAnyone who could obtain any of those inheritances would be able to dominate the world!
nHowever, Su Zimo managed to comprehend all the inheritances here – he was the first in history!
nUnder normal circumstances, after obtaining an inheritance, the other stone statues would no longer view this person as their successor.
nThe reason why more than 30 stone statues chose Su Zimo was not only because he crossed the Three Tribulations Domain.
nMore than that, it was because he had established his Dao heart here 10 years ago to impart martial arts to all living beings!
nAmong the 30 odd stone statues, there were still remnant consciousnesses of ancient Mighty Figures.
nThose remnant consciousnesses wanted to do everything they could to help Su Zimo!
nAfter leaving behind the inheritances, the remnant consciousnesses did not disperse – they wanted to see the final outcome as well!
nHowever, time was merciless.
nEven true life could not withstand the passage of time, let alone remnant consciousnesses.
nAfter more than a thousand years, there were only a few remnant consciousnesses that remained and accompanied Su Zimo.
nIt was relatively simple to comprehend those inheritances. The true difficulty lies in the deduction later on!
nSu Zimo assumed a lotus position with his eyes closed. He recalled the cultivation of his life and tried his best to search for an opportunity.
nTime flew like an arrow.
nIn the blink of an eye, another thousand years passed in the stone statue cemetery!
nOnly slightly more than six years had passed in Tianhuang Mainland. However, Su Zimo had spent more than 2,000 years here!
nAfter more than 2,000 years, Su Zimo was already equivalent to a middle-aged Void Reversion. His face had matured and there was a hint of age in his eyes.
nIn the cemetery, even the few remnant consciousnesses that remained and accompanied him dissipated with indignance.
nIn the end, they could not endure through it.
nSu Zimo’s eyes were slightly red as he bowed deeply towards the 30 odd stone statues. “Seniors, don’t worry. Even if I have to exhaust my lifespan, I’ll definitely deduce a Martial Dao and change the fates of the masses!”
nNobody answered him.
nHe was the only one left in the cemetery.
nIt was as though he was going to be alone on that path for all eternity!
nSu Zimo took a deep breath and composed himself before continuing to deduce.
nHe had gained quite a bit in the past thousand years and had found some clues.
nActually, it was impossible to create a complete Martial Dao.
nHis cultivation realm was only at the Void Reversion realm.
nHowever, it was relatively easier if he merely wanted to allow mortals without spirit roots to cultivate.
nSu Zimo did not have a spirit root and started off with demonic cultivation.
nThere was an extremely important realm for both immortality and demonic cultivation – core formation!
nIt was similar to how the different Daos were different means to the same end.
nCore formation was an insurmountable realm!
nAfter forming a core, one could form their Yin Spirit through demonic cultivation.
nImmortal cultivators could create Essence Spirits that were similar.
nIn other words, if he could create a cultivation technique and allow mortals without spirit roots to form their cores without taking on demon form, it would be equivalent to settling the most critical aspect of deducing the Martial Dao!
nThat was because one would cultivate an Essence Spirit after forming a core.
nThe cultivation of an Essence Spirit would break free from the shackles of the spirit root and one would be able to comprehend Heaven and Earth with their Essence Spirit!
nSu Zimo continued to deduce based on that line of thought.
nTime slowly passed.
nIn the blink of an eye, another thousand years passed.
nSu Zimo stood motionlessly at the foot of the stone statue. His body was covered in dust and his original green robes could no longer be seen.
nIt had only been nine years in the outside world.
nHowever, Su Zimo was already more than 3,000 years old!
nOver the years, he had never rested and had been constantly deducing and comprehending.
nHe failed countless times but he never gave up.
nTime continued to pass.
nIn the blink of an eye, another thousand years passed!
nSu Zimo was already more than 4,000 years old!
nThe lifespan of a Void Reversion was only 5,000 years.
nAt more than 4,000 years old, it meant that he was in his later years and his blood qi was starting to deteriorate, entering a twilight state!
nAt that moment, Su Zimo’s hair had already turned grayish-white and rested on his shoulders.
nThere were also some wrinkles on his face.
nThe cruelty of time was unstoppable!
