Qi Ming had already grasped the Heaven Secrets Book and the Heaven Secrets Brush at the initial stage. The spirit of the Mystic Gate grotto-heaven had been captured into the Heaven Secrets Book, so it was naturally completely under his control.

Next, he gradually became familiar with his control of the Heaven Secrets Book and the Heaven Secrets Brush. He could smoothly use the power of the Heaven Secrets Book and the Heaven Secrets Brush and also control the power of the Mystic Gate Grotto-heaven.

His strength increased further.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, ten years later.

On this day.

Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain.

The spiritual qi of the heavens and the earth gathered, forming an extremely vast spirit cloud vortex. It spread out and enveloped the surroundings, and there was the sound of the heavens and the earth accompanying it.

Various phenomena occurred.

“Hahaha…”

The next moment, a loud laugh sounded.

Swish!

Han Yun came out of seclusion. He had been in seclusion for ten years and had broken through to the Dao Integration realm overnight. His strength had increased greatly, and his aura was surging like the sea.

“Congratulations, Senior Brother Han Yun, for your breakthrough and successful Dao Integration.”

“Congratulations to Senior Brother Han Yun for breaking through…”

“…”

Immediately, many legacy disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain came to congratulate. In the blink of an eye, many people had already gathered. Even the two Grand Elders of the Soul Tempering lineage had arrived.

“Han Yun has entered Dao Integration.”

Qi Ming naturally sensed it as well. He looked up and retracted his gaze. He did not pay too much attention to it, “It took ten years. Not bad.”

Han Yun had been stuck at the late-stage Soul Formation realm for hundreds of years. Last time, she had even been in seclusion for a hundred years and had yet to break through. Therefore, after Han Yun came out of seclusion, he challenged the legacy disciples of the various lineages of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain.

Although he had lost to Qi Ming at the end, he had profited from a disaster. During the battle with Qi Ming, he had grasped an opportunity and found the way to break through.

He had only been in seclusion for ten years and had reached the Dao Integration realm overnight.

His strength had increased greatly.

“Qi Ming!”

Boom!

At this moment, Han Yun stood in the sky with his hands behind his back. He looked in the direction of the Heaven Secrets Manor and shouted, “According to the original agreement, I’ve already broken through to the Dao Integration realm. In three days, I’ll find you to spar again.”

At this moment, everyone was shocked.

“This… this…”

“Senior Brother Han Yun is too vengeful. His cultivation level has already broken through to the Dao Integration realm. His strength has increased greatly. He’s already different from before, but he still wants to challenge Legacy Disciple Qi, who is only at the late-stage Nascent Soul realm.”

“Senior Brother Han Yun lost to Legacy Disciple Qi last time. He wants to win back this time.”

“That’s right!”

“It seems that Senior Brother Han Yun is still upset about losing to Legacy Disciple Qi last time.”

“That’s right!”

“Legacy Disciple Qi is probably going to lose this time because Senior Brother Han Yun has already broken through to the Dao Integration realm. It’s impossible for Legacy Disciple Qi to win this time.”

“That’s right.”

The legacy disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain discussed animatedly and were quite emotional.

Three days later.

Swish!

Han Yun came and stood at the entrance of the Heaven Secrets Manor again. Around him, legacy disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain gathered.

“Junior Brother Qi.”

Han Yun looked at the tightly shut Heaven Secrets Manor with a calm gaze and said indifferently, “Three days have already passed. I wonder if you’re ready?”

“Senior Brother Han Yun.”

Qi Ming’s voice sounded from the Heaven Secrets Manor and did not appear, “I won’t attack this time. I’ll let my spirit pet fight in my place. Let’s wait until you defeat my spirit pet.”

“You…”

Han Yun was stunned.

Roar!

The next moment, a dragon roar sounded from the Heaven Secrets Manor.

Boom!

Immediately after, with a rumble, the door to the Heaven Secrets Manor opened. A black shadow flew out. It was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it had already appeared in everyone’s vision.

Roar! Roar!

Black Flame appeared.

It circled above the Heaven Secrets Manor as the dragon body constantly enlarged. In an extremely short period of time, it had already become a Hornless Black Dragon that was ten thousand meters long.

The huge dragon head lowered slightly and stared at everyone present.

A vast dragon might enveloped the surroundings.

From head to toe, black dragon flames burned.

“You want to challenge my Master?”

Black Flame stared at Han Yun as the power of the late-stage Dao Integration realm was completely released. It pressed down on Han Yun’s body, causing his scalp to go numb and he felt an immense pressure.

“This…”

Han Yun’s gaze was frozen as he felt shock, “Late-stage Dao Integration, Qi Ming actually nurtured a late-stage Dao Integration spirit pet. Moreover, it’s a Hornless Black Dragon that walks the path of the Dragon Transformation.”

In the surroundings, everyone fell into shock. They were all stunned and dumbfounded. Especially when they sensed the incomparably terrifying dragon might on Black Flame’s body, they were all speechless.

This situation exceeded everyone’s expectations. No one expected that Qi Ming’s spirit pet had already been nurtured to the Dao Integration realm.

At the beginning, Qi Ming’s spirit pet was only at the late-stage Leaving Aperture realm. Now, only a few decades had passed and it had already reached the late-stage Dao Integration realm!

It was too terrifying.

This was too terrifying.

Two figures tore through the air and stood not far away. The two of them were the Grand Elders of the Beast Control lineage of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain. They were Daoist Azure Dragon and Patriarch Spirit Control.

“Hornless Black Dragon.”

Daoist Azure Dragon was looking at Black Flame with a shocked expression, “It’s indeed a late-stage Dao Integration spirit pet. There’s no mistake. Moreover, this spirit pet’s foundation is extremely deep. There’s no superficial fluctuations.”

“The only flaw is that this Hornless Black Dragon failed to establish a grotto-heaven blessed land so it cannot borrow the power of a grotto-heaven in battle. However, this is already very terrifying.”

“Unbelievable.”

Patriarch Spirit Control had a head of white hair, a white robe, and a youthful appearance, “Has Qi Ming’s beast taming talent actually reached such a terrifying level? He can actually nurture a late-stage Dao Integration realm Hornless Black Dragon in such a short period of time. Moreover, there’s no problem with its foundation.”

“This is too shocking.”

Then, the battle began.

Han Yun had just broken through to the Dao Integration realm and his cultivation level was only at the early-stage Dao Integration realm. Moreover, he had yet to establish a grotto-heaven blessed land. Facing the late-stage Dao Integration Black Flame, Han Yun was not its match at all.

After a few moves.

“Ah!!!”

Boom!

Han Yun screamed and was directly sent flying by Black Flame’s Divine Dragon Tail. He spat out blood and fell to the ground, his injuries not light.

“Trash.” Black Flame looked down at Han Yun and roared, “You want to challenge Master? How laughable. You can’t even defeat me.”

“You!!!”

Han Yun’s face turned pale.

In the surroundings, the legacy disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain booed endlessly.

“Hurry up and leave.”

Daoist Purple Firmament appeared. He frowned and looked at the Heaven Secrets Manor. With a wave of his right hand, he left with Han Yun, leaving only a group of spectators.

“Let’s go, let’s go…”

“Disperse.”

“Senior Brother Han Yun broke through to the Dao Integration realm and challenged Legacy Disciple Qi again. In the end, he was defeated by Legacy Disciple Qi’s spirit pet without even seeing him.”

“Legacy Disciple Qi is truly unfathomable.”

“As expected of the personal disciple of Patriarch Heaven Secrets!”

“…”

Not long after, news of Qi Ming nurturing a late-stage Dao Integration spirit pet and Han Yun losing to Qi Ming again quickly spread.

For a moment, Qi Ming’s reputation reached the peak.

The Heaven Secrets lineage that had gradually declined seemed to show signs of warming up. Many legacy disciples were searching for the cultivation methods of the Heaven Secrets lineage in the inheritance hall.

Of course, this had nothing to do with Qi Ming.

After Black Flame displayed its powerful strength, it had already completely awed all the legacy disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain. No legacy disciple dared to challenge Qi Ming again.

This way, Qi Ming was also happy to be free. He cultivated in the Heaven Secrets Manor every day and his cultivation level increased steadily. He could also obtain many things from the game dungeon every day.

Unknowingly, spring passed and winter came.

Thirty years passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, at noon.

Ding!

“The Three Pure Dao Scripture has been cultivated for 40 years under the enhancement of a million times. Congratulations, host. You have comprehended the true intent of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and the profundity of the Three Pure Dao Scripture. You have cultivated the Great Dao Essence Soul. You can fuse with your Nascent Soul or have it leave your body. Even if your body is destroyed, your Essence Soul will remain. You have already broken through to the early-stage Leaving Aperture realm.”

A notification appeared.

Qi Ming sat cross-legged. He entered that extremely profound state again. He felt that his consciousness was in an independent space.

Then, in this space, he constantly comprehended and understood the Three Pure Dao Scripture. Time passed quickly, and Qi Ming could not sense the passage of time at all.

In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years passed…

Finally!

Boom!

Qi Ming’s entire body shook. He had comprehended the mystic technique of the Three Pure Dao Scripture and used it to condense his Essence Soul. The Heaven and Earth Great Dao True Intent fused into it and became the Essence Soul of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao.

The Heaven and Earth Great Dao Essence Soul and the Three Pure Nascent Soul fused into one.

At this moment, the Dharmic powers in Qi Ming’s body exploded. All kinds of heaven and earth Dao sounds sounded. All kinds of heaven and earth phenomena appeared around Qi Ming. Flowers bloomed and golden lotuses surged on the ground…

This was only the beginning.

In the world, an incomparably vast phenomenon appeared. Above the Heaven Secrets Manor, a huge spiritual cloud vortex first appeared and constantly expanded.

In the blink of an eye, it had already covered the entire Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain.

It was still expanding.

Finally, it reached a radius of 300 miles.

The next moment, all kinds of phenomena appeared.

In the spirit clouds, the heaven and earth Dao sounds resounded in all directions, evolving into various strange and profound phenomena. The commotion caused by these worldly phenomena was more than ten times that of when Qi Ming broke through to the Nascent Soul realm.

It was extremely shocking.

The entire Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain was alarmed. All the Grand Elders and Sect Master Yang Li of the twelve lineages of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain appeared again.. Even the three ancestors of the three major forbidden areas were alarmed, as if they were showing signs of awakening.
