Chapter 384: Breakthrough in the Physical Martial Arts, A New Era in the Qinghua Realm

Chapter 384: Breakthrough in the Physical Martial Arts, A New Era in the Qinghua Realm

In the Tie Ling Sky Cave, Xu Yan displayed his mighty powers, slaughtering countless enemies from the Underworld. Meanwhile, Wei, the sect master, engaged in a fierce battle with two elders, his heart filled with fear and trepidation.

Who is this man, and why is he so powerful? His martial arts are simply unimaginable.

Never before in the Qinghua realm had such wondrous techniques been heard of. Could this man be an unparalleled genius from a greater realm?

Escape! I must escape!

Wei frantically fought, leaving the two elders battered and bruised as he sought an opportunity to flee. Suddenly, a sword light descended from the heavens, accompanied by the resounding roar of a dragon.

A giant hand, imbued with immense power, reached out to strike him down.

Xu Yan had made his move!

News of the events in the Tie Ling Sky Cave and Wei's betrayal quickly spread throughout the Tianwu Sect's territory. The sect was furious and realized that some traitors remained undetected.

Immediately, a clearance order was issued, and they began inspecting all the forces guarding the sky caves within their jurisdiction.

The name of Sword God Xu Yan also spread throughout the Tianwu Sect's territory. He had single-handedly slain the enemies from the Underworld and ultimately killed Wei, the sect master, with the assistance of two True King Heaven's Honored.

Although he had help, his strength was extraordinary, and in a short time, he had defeated Wei. Such prowess was rarely seen in the Qinghua realm, and perhaps no genius within its borders could match him.

Especially that wondrous sword art, and the lifelike true dragon, surpassed all imagination. Such martial arts were truly incredible.

"He is indeed the disciple of a formidable master!"

The sect master of Tianwu Sect exclaimed, filled with awe.

The other elders nodded in agreement; the skill of the master's disciple was indeed beyond comprehension.

Among his peers in the entire Tianwu Sect, there was none who could rival him.

"No one must offend the disciple of a formidable master. We must offer him all the convenience we can."

The sect master spoke in a solemn tone.

Whether it was the master's formidable might or the cooperation with Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu, they had to be respectful and cautious not to offend this disciple.

Xu Yan traveled through the regions under the jurisdiction of the Tianwu Sect, entering one sky cave after another to hone his martial arts.

Not long after, news spread within the Wanlei Sect's territory about a bald, fierce young man with an incredibly robust physical body. He single-handedly pushed back the Blood Slaves, and his violent battles shocked the watching warriors.

With the great sun hanging above his head and wind and thunder in his hands, he even transformed into a golden-armored giant, invincible and akin to a heavenly god.

Thus, the name Dao Jue Meng Chong did not spread, nor did it ring loud enough. Instead, he became known as Heavenly God Meng Chong to the warriors.

The name Heavenly God Meng Chong began to circulate far and wide.

"Heavenly God Meng Chong, no longer will he be called Dao Jue."

In the Grand Yue Kingdom's capital, in the small courtyard of the Dan Yi Hospital, Su Lingxiu exclaimed in admiration.

"Senior Sister, you should be called Dan Yi Fairy," Fang Hao said with a smile.

News of Xu Yan and Meng Chong's exploits had already reached them. Ever since Fang Hao started refining the message talismans and re-establishing a communication system similar to the Wan Shi Alliance in the Qinghua realm, the speed of information transmission had increased significantly.

They had also started working on teleportation formations and teaching the art of formation techniques. Some simple formations could now be set up without his personal presence.

Li Xuan marveled at how venturing into the martial arts world seemed to be the right choice for Xu Yan and Meng Chong. In such a short time, they had already made remarkable progress.

"Your disciple Xu Yan has broken through to the Hui Jian realm, and you have achieved perfection in the Hui Jian realm."

Finally, Xu Yan had stepped into the Hui Jian realm.

As for when he would be able to comprehend the cultivation direction of the Holy Sword realm, it was still unknown, but Li Xuan had confidence in Xu Yan.

"Your disciple Xu Yan has broken through to the seventh level of the Dragon Subduing Palm, and you have achieved perfection in the seventh level of the Dragon Subduing Palm."

The Dragon Subduing Palm had also broken through.

The seventh level of the Dragon Subduing Palm was a significant breakthrough. With a single palm strike, it was no longer a mere display of overwhelming power but akin to unleashing a true dragon.

This true dragon possessed a certain degree of the nature of a true dragon.

"The seventh level of the Dragon Subduing Palm is already a divine palm, initially possessing the intent of the Dragon Subduing Principle."

Li Xuan's heart was filled with delight at this development.

Xu Yan's True Dragon Fury was a divine ability derived from the Dragon Subduing Palm, and the seventh level of the Dragon Subduing Palm itself was already equivalent to a divine ability.

The True Dragon Fury and the Dragon Subduing Palm could perfectly overlap, as if two divine abilities were fused and exhibited, resulting in a natural surge in power.

"Your disciple Meng Chong has enlightened the second level of the Great Sun Star Immortal Body, and you have broken through to the second level of the Great Sun Star Immortal Body."

As news of Xu Yan and Meng Chong continued to spread, one day, Meng Chong, within the Wanlei Sky Cave, physically withstood the attack of a top-level Blood Disciple, revealing his robust physical power but also sustaining some minor injuries.

Feedback from the Great Dao Golden Book also appeared at this moment.

Meng Chong had enlightened the second level of the Great Sun Star Immortal Body. This was evidently a result of his fierce battles, where he showcased the dominance of his physical body, leading to this breakthrough.

In the midst of intense battles and dangerous confrontations, and even at the cost of minor injuries to his physical body, Meng Chong had enlightened the second level of the Great Sun Star Immortal Body.

"The physical martial arts have also broken through the Broken Void realm."

Li Xuan's physical body was undergoing a transformation, and within his meridians, it was as if stars were incubating, with powerful stars circling his body, making his physical body akin to that of the heavens themselves.

"With the gathering of countless stars into one, I have a plan for the direction of the physical body in the later stages of the Great Sun Star Immortal Body."

At this moment, Li Xuan had an idea, and he had found the path for the subsequent physical body cultivation in the Great Sun Star Immortal Body.

"With my current strength, crushing the Grand Yue Emperor with one hand would be effortless."

Li Xuan was thrilled.

As his physical martial arts broke through the Broken Void realm, his strength naturally increased significantly. With sheer brute force, he could crush an immortal emperor like the Grand Yue Emperor.

"This lass, Su Lingxiu, should also be close to enlightening the Broken Void realm, right?"

Li Xuan was full of anticipation.

Once Su Lingxiu enlightened as well, all three of his martial arts paths would have reached the Broken Void realm, and his strength would naturally take another step forward.

Fang Hao's Qimen martial arts had been continuously improving. After all, the cultivation of Qimen martial arts was a bit unique, and it wasn't easy to elevate it to a level comparable to the Broken Void realm.

"When will this fellow, Jiang Buling, successfully cultivate the Extreme Soul martial arts?"

Li Xuan thought of his new disciple, Jiang Buling.

For these past days, Jiang Buling had been in seclusion, constantly attempting to fuse the Unchanging Qi and transform his spirit soul into an Unchanging Spirit Soul.

However, the Unchanging Qi was not easily dealt with.

Nonetheless, Jiang Buling had made progress. As he continued to comprehend and attempt to fuse the Unchanging Qi, his mental consciousness could now concentrate to a certain degree even without external stimulation.

This was a positive sign, indicating that the method of dealing with the Unchanging Qi was correct. From now on, it would be a matter of time, slowly dissolving it bit by bit.

While this process might be lengthy, at least there was hope.

Often, the first step was the most challenging. Once the Unchanging Qi was successfully dealt with, his spirit soul would no longer fear it, and he could even try to absorb small amounts of Unchanging Qi to cultivate his spirit soul.

"Jiang Buling is a True King Heaven's Honored. Once he resolves the Unchanging Qi and transforms his spirit soul, successfully cultivating the Extreme Soul martial arts, his strength will not be inferior to a True King Heaven's Honored.

"Xu Yan, our senior brother, will face some pressure if he wants to maintain his position as the strongest senior brother. However, he's not far from the God Phase Realm, and by the time Jiang Buling resolves the Unchanging Qi, Xu Yan will have already broken through."

With Xu Yan's strength, once he entered the God Phase Realm, even a True King Heaven's Honored would no longer be his match.

With the Yin-Yang Undying Sword Art, ordinary Immortal Emperors would find it difficult to inflict harm on him.

"These are new message talismans. Although they can't be used to communicate with the Divine Realm, they can easily transmit messages across most of the Qinghua Realm, making it much more convenient to set up a communication network."

Fang Hao handed a stack of message talismans to the Grand Yue Emperor as he explained.

These were the latest talismans he had refined, with significantly improved transmission distances. The next batch he planned to create would be able to transmit messages as long as there were heavenly laws present.

However, this involved heavenly laws, and with his current strength and understanding, Fang Hao was not yet capable of crafting them.

"Wonderful! With these message talismans, we can immediately be informed if anything happens in any city within the Qinghua Realm."

The Grand Yue Emperor was overjoyed.

Cheng Zhan, who represented the Wanlei Sect, was equally thrilled. The message talismans marked a new era for the Qinghua Realm.

"The teleportation formations currently have a maximum transmission distance of 100,000 li. It's the limit for now, as we don't have the divine materials to support longer distances.

"Moreover, refining and setting up such long-distance teleportation formations is no easy task, and the consumption of resources is enormous."

Fang Hao continued to explain.

He was thrilled with his collaboration with the Grand Yue Emperor, which had proven to be a wise decision. With such abundant resources at their disposal, they had made significant advancements in formation techniques, artifact refining, and restrictive spells, reaching new heights.

The Qimen Martial Arts were also rapidly improving.

"Brother Fang, if there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to ask. A 100,000 li teleportation formation should be sufficient for now, and it will greatly increase the speed of support to the four directions."

The Grand Yue Emperor was filled with excitement.

"Alright, then I won't hold back. Each time the teleportation formation is activated, spiritual crystals are consumed. But more importantly, the protective formation for the teleportation formation must be sturdy enough to withstand attacks.

"Additionally, if the formation is damaged during the teleportation process, those being transported must still be able to arrive safely. This is of utmost importance..."

Fang Hao continued, and he soon became busy with setting up the teleportation formations.

On the other hand, in the Dan Yi Hospital, Su Lingxiu waved her hand, and a large jar appeared, filled with pills.

"Grand Yue Emperor, these pills can increase the chances of a Condensation Realm cultivator breaking through to the Refinement Realm. They can help cultivators overcome bottlenecks, and there are a total of 10,000 Refinement Pills here. I dare not say that it will turn your entire country into True King Heaven's Honored, but increasing the number by several hundred is definitely achievable."

Several hundred True King Heaven's Honored would be a significant boost to the strength of the Grand Yue Empire.

"Good! Good! Good!"

The Grand Yue Emperor was delighted, and he continued to provide various rare and precious spirit medicines to Su Lingxiu.

"These are pills for treating foundation damage. Even True King Heaven's Honored can recover from minor foundation injuries with these. If the damage is too severe, they will have to come to me for treatment."

Su Lingxiu took out more pills.

"Thank you, Miss Su!"

The Grand Yue Emperor was deeply grateful.

Then, his expression turned solemn as he asked, "Miss Su, do you have any pills that can increase the chances of breaking through to the Immortal Emperor Realm?"

It was commonly said in the Divine Realm, "Refinement is easy, but Immortal is hard!"

In the entire Qinghua Realm, while there was no exact count of True King Heaven's Honored, the number of Immortal Emperors was clear—there were less than twenty in total, and they were only found in the Grand Yue Empire, the Wanlei Sect, and the Tianwu Sect.

Together, they had fewer than twenty Immortal Emperors!

This showed how difficult it was to attain the Immortal Emperor Realm.

Many ancient True King Heaven's Honored had reached the peak of their realm and continued to cultivate for countless years, but they still failed to step into the Immortal Emperor Realm before their lifespan ran out.

The appearance of these pills gave the Grand Yue Emperor and the others hope that they might be able to increase the chances of breaking through to the Immortal Emperor Realm.

Every additional Immortal Emperor would greatly enhance the overall strength of the Qinghua Realm, making it easier to fend off invasions from the Underworld.

Even if this Immortal Emperor was relatively weaker, their presence would still make a significant difference.

Su Lingxiu fell into deep thought. The Immortal Emperor Realm was too high of a realm, and since she cultivated the Dao of Dan Yi, it wasn't easy for her to refine pills that could increase the chances of breaking through to that level. She would need more time to figure out a suitable formula.

Moreover, even if she came up with a formula, whether she could successfully refine the pills with her current cultivation was uncertain.

One thing she could be sure of was that the medicinal ingredients required to refine pills for breaking through to the Immortal Emperor Realm would be extremely rare and precious. Failing to refine such a pill would result in a significant loss.

Of course, the Grand Yue Emperor and the others would bear the cost of these losses, so Su Lingxiu didn't have to worry about that. Her main concern was figuring out the right formula.

"Grand Yue Emperor, the Immortal Emperor Realm is extraordinary, and increasing the chances of breaking through is no small feat. Moreover, the required medicinal ingredients will undoubtedly be extremely rare and precious.

"How about this, you can give me a list of all the heavenly treasures in the Divine Realm, and also gather some of them for me. This will make it easier for me to research and refine the appropriate pills."

Finally, Su Lingxiu made her request.

"Of course, no problem!"

The Grand Yue Emperor readily agreed.

The creation of pills to increase the chances of breaking through to the Immortal Emperor Realm was not just for the Grand Yue Empire, so Su Lingxiu's required ingredients would not be shouldered by the empire alone.

Once she successfully refined such pills, there would surely be someone from the Grand Yue Empire, the Wanlei Sect, or the Tianwu Sect who was on the brink of breaking through to the Immortal Emperor Realm and could benefit from them.

The Grand Yue Emperor left happily with the pills, and Cheng Zhan, representing the Wanlei Sect, also purchased the pills he needed from Su Lingxiu. The Tianwu Sect did the same, and everyone was pleased.

Su Lingxiu understood that the reason the Grand Yue Emperor, the Wanlei Sect, and the Tianwu Sect treated her so respectfully, fulfilling her every request without any hesitation or ill intentions, was because of the deterrence of her master.

"I can't rely on Master for everything. I need to improve my strength as well. Although my Dao of Dan Yi isn't suited for combat, compared to my senior brothers, it's still quite capable."

Su Lingxiu thought to herself. Only by becoming stronger herself could she truly face any threats that might arise.

The appearance of formation techniques and pills undoubtedly ushered the Qinghua Realm's martial world into a new era, turning a new page. For the cultivators of the Qinghua Realm, formations and pills were no longer unfamiliar concepts.

However, due to their scarcity, pills were considered luxurious items in the Qinghua Realm's martial world.
