Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Earth Fiend Seventy-two Techniques had been cultivated for 500 years under the enhancement of 100 trillion times. Then, under the enhancement of 10 trillion times, it had been cultivated for more than a hundred years.
Now, the Earth Fiend Seventy-two Techniques had already been raised from the entry level to the Perfection realm. Among them, it had crossed the Small Success realm and the Large Success realm.
Qi Ming could not fuse the Earth Fiend Seventy-two Techniques into the tenth Great Dao immortal aperture because he had not reached the Profound realm.
He could only take a step back and choose the Clear Sky True Fire Divine Power. He fused it into the tenth Great Dao immortal aperture and condensed the tenth Great Dao Supreme.
Qi Ming circulated the Dharmic powers around his body. The divine power talisman evolved from the Clear Sky True Fire Divine Power was a ball of light that was as dazzling as the crimson sun. It was also slowly flowing like a vortex and was quite profound.
A day later, the tenth Great Dao immortal aperture was completely established, and the tenth Great Dao Supremacy had also evolved to perfection. Qi Ming’s strength had increased, but it was not very obvious.
“Not bad.” Qi Ming nodded.
From the Mystic Immortal realm, one had to cross the Grand Unity Mystic Immortal realm and Golden Immortal realm to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm. They had to establish a total of 129,600 immortal apertures.
According to the speed at which Qi Ming opened an Great Dao immortal aperture every hundred years, excluding the nine Great Dao immortal apertures that he had opened when he broke through to the early-stage Mystic Immortal realm,
Qi Ming needed a total of 12.96 million years to completely establish 129,600 Great Dao immortal apertures.
The duration was very long.
If he added the corresponding amplification state, the time to break through was even longer.
This was the difficulty of cultivating the Great Dao.
“When the nine apertures are combined and my cultivation breaks through, I can step into the early-stage Mystic Immortal realm.”
Qi Ming pondered for a moment, “If I want to break through from the early-stage Mystic Immortal realm to the mid-stage Mystic Immortal realm, I need to establish 11,781 Great Dao immortal apertures.”
“I’ve already established one. There are 11,780 left.”
“This way…”
“According to the speed of opening a Great Dao immortal aperture every hundred years, I need a total of 1,178,000 years.”
“Only then can I break through to the mid-stage Mystic Immortal realm.”
“The duration is long.”
In the following years, Qi Ming had always stayed in the City Lord Manor of the Ancient Immortal City. Moreover, he basically cultivated in the City Lord Manor and cultivated in seclusion. His cultivation level was also steadily rising.
In addition, in the territory of the Ancient Immortal City, although the strength of the four first-rate powers, the Ancient Immortal Sect, the Silver-Winged Yaksha Race, the Feng Clan, and the Purple Mansion Sect, had increased by a level because of Qi Ming, there was no conflict because of this. Instead, it became more and more stable and calm, and there was no conflict anymore.
In the blink of an eye, another year later.
On this day, above the City Lord Manor, two figures stood.
“Junior Min He greets Senior.”
The City Lord of the Ancient Immortal City stood in front of Qi Ming. He bowed respectfully and said respectfully, “Senior suddenly called me over. Please instruct me.”
Qi Ming nodded slightly and sized up the City Lord of the Ancient Immortal City. Among the eight Zenith Heavens of the Ancient Immortal City, this City Lord Min He was actually the strongest.
“Attack me.”
“This…” Min He was stunned. He did not understand and could not react. His face was a little pale, “Senior… Senior… is there anything wrong with me? Or is there something wrong with my hospitality?”
“Why?”
“With my insignificant cultivation, how can I dare to show off in front of Senior?”
Min He did not dare to attack Qi Ming.
In fact…
He felt that he had offended Qi Ming.
Qi Ming wanted to test his strength through Min He, who was already at the late-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm.
“I told you to attack.” Qi Ming’s gaze darkened as he said coldly, “Cut the crap!”
“Yes!”
Min He jolted and did not dare to say anything else. He took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his state. His Dharmic powers surged and transformed into a purple-gold lightning bolt that roared like a lightning dragon as it charged at Qi Ming.
“Lightning Dragon Technique!”
Min He pushed forward with both hands and threw out a palm.
Qi Ming did not move. He clasped his hands behind his back and golden light flashed around his body. He had already used the Purity Golden Body and was invincible.
The lifelike lightning dragon collided with Qi Ming’s body but dissipated completely. The power contained in it dissipated and dissolved into nothingness, unable to injure him at all.
“This…”
Min He was stunned again, “It… it’s actually useless…”
“Is this your full strength?”
Qi Ming’s expression was a little ugly, “Or do you think I can’t block your attack? If that’s the case, you’re too disappointing.”
“I… I don’t dare…”
Min He jolted again and focused his attention. He abandoned the unease in his heart, and his aura condensed as the energy of the Laws appeared.
Not long after, Min He opened his eyes again. He had already completely recovered his calm. His mind was calm as he looked at Qi Ming and bowed.
“Senior.” Min He said, “Next, I’ll do my best.”
He raised his head, and his gaze was like a bolt of lightning. He waved his right hand, and his Intrinsic Immortal Treasure appeared on his body. It was the 108 immortal swords.
This was the Heavenly Cycle Sword Formation.
In the Upper World, the grade of an Intrinsic Immortal Treasure increased with the increase in cultivation. It was divided into the grades according to the level of one’s cultivation.
They were: Immortal realm Intrinsic Immortal Treasure, True Immortal realm Intrinsic Immortal Treasure, Mystic Immortal realm Intrinsic Immortal Treasure, Grand Unity Mystic Immortal realm Intrinsic Immortal Treasure, Golden Immortal realm Intrinsic Immortal Treasure, Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm Intrinsic Immortal Treasure, and Upper World Immortal King Treasure.
Every major grade was divided into four small grades: low, medium, high, and extreme.
According to the difference in cultivation levels, in the same realm, the power of an Intrinsic Immortal Treasure was also very different.
Above the Upper World Immortal King Artifact was the Upper World Treasure.
For example, the Spacetime Treasure: World Gate was the Upper World Treasure.
Above the Upper World Treasure was the Heavenly Dao Treasure.
For now, back when Qi Ming cultivated the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Scripture, he had refined three intrinsic treasures, which were the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Embryo, the World Piercing Sword, and the Sword Mountain.
Now, Qi Ming was no longer at his original cultivation realm. Instead, he was at the early-stage Mystic Immortal realm. He comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and cultivated the Chaos Great Dao Scripture.
The three intrinsic treasures completed the transformation.
The Chaos Green Lotus Sword Embryo completely blossomed and fused with the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. It advanced to the Chaos Great Dao Sword Lotus and opened the 24th-grade Chaos Great Dao Sword Lotus petal.
The World Piercing Sword had completed its sublimation. It had also fused with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and advanced to the Chaos World Piercing Sword. It could open the Chaos and suppress all things.
The Sword Mountain had also completed an unprecedented sublimation. After fusing with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, it successfully advanced to the Chaos Buzhou Mountain. It suppressed the Chaos and evolved the Great Dao.
At the same time, Qi Ming’s three intrinsic immortal treasures could still be fused.
They transformed into the Chaos Great Ax.
In addition…
During this period of time, Qi Ming took out a large number of precious materials from his inventory and refined them all. He fused the true intent of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao and had already raised all three intrinsic immortal treasures to the level of top-grade Mystic Immortal realm intrinsic immortal treasures.
“Sword Qi River.” Min He pointed.
Sword qi surged.
The 108 Heavenly Dao Sword flew out.
Countless sword qi blossomed and surged, forming a vast river of sword qi. It was like a True Dragon circling as it attacked Qi Ming.
There were 108 Heavenly Cycle Heavenly Immortal Swords here, but they were actually an Intrinsic Immortal Treasure. This Intrinsic Immortal Treasure was called the Heavenly Cycle Sword Formation.
Min He’s intrinsic immortal treasure had already been refined to the level of a top-grade Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal treasure.
Although Qi Ming’s Intrinsic Immortal Treasure was only a top-grade Mystic Immortal realm Intrinsic Immortal Treasure, because of the difference in cultivation level, Qi Ming cultivated the Great Dao and far exceeded Min He’s cultivation of the Laws.
Qi Ming’s Intrinsic Immortal Treasure had fused with the power of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. Although its grade was far inferior to Min He’s Heavenly Cycle Sword Formation, its power was extraordinary and was enough to resist Min He’s Heavenly Cycle Sword Formation.
“Good timing.” Qi Ming drew his sword finger with his right hand and pointed forward. The Chaos World Piercing Sword rushed out and tore through the sky like a chaotic sword light, easily defeating the Min He Sword Qi river.
“Heavenly Cycle Sword Shield!”
Min He was shocked. He used the Heavenly Cycle Sword Formation to transform into a sword shield that barely blocked Qi Ming’s Chaos World Piercing Sword. Cracks appeared on the sword shield.
“What a powerful strike.” Min He was extremely shocked, “You defeated my Heavenly Cycle Sword Shield so easily.”
“Sword Lotus.”
Qi Ming raised his left hand. In his left palm, a 24th-grade Chaos Sword Lotus floated. It was suffused with wisps of Chaos light fog, and every wisp of Chaos light fog was actually the Chaos Sword Qi.
“Open!”
Qi Ming shouted softly. The Chaos Great Dao Sword Lotus flew out and soared into the sky. It floated above Min He’s head and dropped Dao light fog.
These light fog were wisps of the powerful Chaos Sword Qi.
“Oh no!” Min He was shocked, “Heavenly Cycle Sword Formation! Activate!”
He roared and activated the power of the Heavenly Cycle Sword Formation to the limit. The 108 Heavenly Immortal Swords flew out and landed in the surroundings, forming the sword formation. Countless sword lights danced like stars flickering in the sky, blocking Qi Ming’s Chaos Great Dao Sword Lotus.
Qi Ming’s attack had just begun.
“Chaos Buzhou Mountain!”
Qi Ming opened his mouth and spat out. The Chaos Buzhou Mountain flew out and swelled with the wind. It constantly enlarged. Chaos fog spread out as the terrifying Buzhou Mountain was like a pillar that held up the sky as it suppressed over.
“This… this…” Min He looked terrified as he shouted, “No!”
Crack! Crack!
The Chaos Buzhou Mountain pressed down and directly suppressed the Heavenly Cycle Sword Formation. The extremely terrifying pressure and power shattered the Heavenly Cycle Sword Formation.
Cracks spread.
There was a loud sound.
Min He screamed and spat out blood. His Intrinsic Immortal Treasure was injured, and he was also injured.. The Heavenly Cycle Sword Formation collapsed, and the Heavenly Immortal Swords was sent flying together with Min He.
