Chapter 476: Entering the Heavenly Paradise
Chapter 476: Entering the Heavenly Paradise
2024-10-31
Facing the turbulent stream, the upper echelons of Yue Xi Mountain found it challenging to endure.
They could only stand at a distance, slightly comprehending the situation.
And this time, the entrance had just been opened.
The turbulence was even more fierce, and its impact would be greater and more severe.
But Su Chen's current Fifth Stage Realm needed this turbulent stream to temper his skills.
His physical body, tempered by the Heavenly Dao Mind Decision, was already sufficient to take another step forward.
What he required was to temper his mental state.
The core of the Fifth Stage Realm was the preparation before reaching the Transcendent Realm.
Everything was in preparation for the Transcendent Realm.
With sufficient preparation, his realm would naturally advance further.
The turbulent stream disturbed his mental state, and even the top powerhouses in this region were only at the Sixth Stage Perfect Realm.
Without complete control over his own state, facing this turbulence, he could only feel its influence.
At most, he could stand on the outskirts, slightly comprehending the changes in his mental state brought about by the turbulence.
Su Chen, on the other hand, was at the entrance, fully immersed in his comprehension.
The Fifth Stage Snow Intention Realm, his body hidden within the Mountain Furnace, but his mind was as calm as snow.
Even as the winds howled and the earth shook, his heart remained unmoved.
After the initial surge of turbulence at the entrance, the flow gradually stabilized.
Su Chen began to sort through and clear away these turbulent streams.
In his mind, he recalled the guidance given to him by Qiu Ruoshang.
Regarding the Transcendent Realm, Qiu Ruoshang had explained it to him in great detail.
To be able to break into the Transcendent Realm at such a young age, and even further advance to the Third Stage Unification Realm, was extraordinary.
It showed that Qiu Ruoshang truly understood the martial path, grasping it with meticulous detail.
The Transcendent Realm, as Qiu Ruoshang understood it, was a state where a cultivator thoroughly understood themselves, to the point of complete mastery.
Their control over their power was precise and meticulous.
Every aspect was clear and distinct.
For a cultivator, this was a true metamorphosis.
However, the gap between Transcendent Realm powerhouses was usually significant.
These gaps were caused by the foundations laid in the various realms before reaching the Transcendent Realm.
Perhaps in the Sixth or Fifth Stage, cultivators might not feel a significant gap.
But once they truly broke into the Transcendent Realm, these gaps would be fully exposed.
The turbulent stream before him was a challenge to his limits.
Every crack and obstacle in his mental state were magnified by the turbulence, revealing all the issues to Su Chen.
The top Transcendent Realm powerhouses had complete mastery over themselves.
And these were the paths that allowed them to achieve such mastery.
At this moment, Su Chen had completely immersed himself in his mental state.
His intention manifested in a vast expanse, a secret technique he had obtained from Immortal Tranquil Wave's secret realm.
Streams of turbulence materialized into winds, and then into sharp spears.
Su Chen countered with his sword techniques, his figure constantly dodging.
The unending turbulence made Su Chen feel increasingly exhausted.
His physical strength and energy were not infinite.
Even in this intention-based mental state, he could still clearly feel the fatigue.
Several hours passed, and Su Chen struggled to cope with the turbulence.
The sharp spears created by the turbulence remained piercing and relentless.
At his limits, he found it difficult to resist.
Suddenly, his entire body was pierced by the spear illusion.
In an instant, Su Chen fell out of his mental state.
A trace of blood slipped from the corner of his mouth.
Without hesitation, Su Chen leaped away, heading towards a distant location.
This place was more dangerous than he had anticipated, and there was a possibility of injury.
He needed a quiet, undisturbed place.
The people of Yue Xi Mountain knew his location, although their strength was not exceptional.
But if he were seriously injured, the mob could still cause him trouble.
With this in mind, Su Chen immediately leaped forward.
The turbulence had spread all around, engulfing the surroundings.
Even as he moved a little further away, he could still feel the turbulence surrounding him.
At this moment, he needed a hidden and secure location.
Meng Wang, who had been observing from a distance, should have noticed Su Chen's disappearance.
In his mind, he calculated, still harboring thoughts of resistance.
Having been in a high position for so long, being controlled by others was something Meng Wang found difficult to accept.
He seemed to have forgotten how he had controlled others.
In the eyes of these higher-ups, they were the ones who gave orders to others.
How could a stranger climb over them?
He wanted to retaliate, to resist.
But when he thought of Su Chen's displayed martial prowess and the poison he had given them, his determination wavered.
That strong attitude seemed to have weakened considerably.
During his hesitation, Su Chen had already found a hidden location on the outskirts.
All around were traps and mechanisms, set up as reminders and basic defenses.
The area here is still some distance from the entrance that had just appeared.
The turbulent streams around are also much lighter.
Su Chen sat cross-legged, focusing his mind to deal with these turbulent streams once more.
As he did so, he constantly pondered over Qiu Ruoshuang's reminder.
The Fifth Stage of the Snow Intention Realm is a transformation from chaos to tranquility.
The initial stage of the Snow Intention Realm stabilizes the raging Mountain Furnace within the body.
The influence of the Heartfire becomes negligible.
It's as if the Heartfire has merged with the body, becoming an integral part of oneself.
Advancing further in the Snow Intention Realm is about gaining complete control over oneself.
It's not just about controlling the Heartfire.
The turbulent streams stir up emotional turmoil, and what Su Chen does is to make these disturbances insignificant.
Suppressing these chaotic intentions doesn't even require a thought; it can be done instinctively.
Only by achieving this can one's realm be considered to have taken a significant step forward.
It's a simple thought, but it still needs to be experienced step by step.
Su Chen immersed himself in his mind once more, and the turbulent streams transformed into sharp blades that pierced through.
However, this time, Su Chen aimed to evade them with the slightest movements.
With each evasion, the energy and strength consumed became extremely minimal.
So minimal that the energy and strength consumed were even less than the amount he recovered.
The sky gradually darkened, turning pitch-black.
Su Chen sank into his thoughts, completely ignoring the external environment.
The location he was in at this moment was just right.
The turbulent streams emanating from the entrance were becoming denser.
The surrounding area was also gradually being affected.
These conditions allowed Su Chen to experience a gradual process.
Within his thoughts, the turbulent streams transformed into increasingly dense blades.
But Su Chen's evasive actions became smaller and smaller.
His precision in evading the turbulent streams was approaching the extreme.
A turbulent stream that seemed to be able to harm him, yet Su Chen completely ignored it.
After the turbulent stream passed through, it would brush past his side.
The slightest gap was seized and targeted by Su Chen.
This was the crucial point for entering the Transcendent Realm.
He had complete control over himself, every detail was crystal clear.
Gradually, the turbulent streams before him seemed to slow down.
Dealing with them seemed to no longer require divided attention.
It was as if he could instinctively avoid them entirely.
The initial difficulty had now become effortless.
Su Chen finally took another step forward in the Middle Stage of the Snow Intention Realm.
With the advancement in realm, his fundamental strength was evidently improving.
The influence of the turbulent streams was becoming increasingly negligible.
From the Middle Stage to the Perfect Stage, it was no longer about controlling one's mental state.
Instead, it was about controlling one's physical body and flesh.
Every detail was controlled with precision, achieving the utmost level.
His evasive precision allowed him to avoid the turbulent streams with the smallest movements each time.
Only by achieving these two points could one be fully prepared for the Transcendent Realm.
Training one's physical body might not require a high level of comprehension.
For Su Chen, he had some advantages.
He had learned the method of controlling his mental state from Immortal Tranquil Wave.

Within his thoughts, he created a vast world.
In this vast world, he could forge his skills and temper his mental strength.
In comparison, others didn't have such good fortune.
When it came to tempering mental strength, it was evident that they would be weaker than Su Chen.
But physical strength was different; it was tangible.
For any martial artist, improving physical strength required continuous and sustained tempering.
This couldn't be achieved through clever means, and seeking such methods would only result in a clever but superficial improvement.
It might seem powerful, but in reality, it was all for show.
By reaching the utmost level in both mental and physical strength, one could advance to the Transcendent Realm.
They would also be among the top Transcendent Powerhouses.
Moreover, the path they could walk in the future would be even farther.
The main task of coming here had been accomplished.
Regarding this Heavenly Paradise, Su Chen had already visited and gained sufficient benefits from it.
Next, he could choose to leave.
But after glancing at the entrance where the turbulent streams appeared, Su Chen had some ideas.
Using the Cloudwalking Steps, Su Chen leaped to the location where the turbulent streams surged.
The turbulent streams, invisible and intangible, continuously surged like rapid river currents.
These unseen and intangible mental streams had an extraordinary impact on martial artists.
Within this area, for some reason, these turbulent streams were drawn out.
After a moment of hesitation, Su Chen leaped into the midst of them.
Beyond the entrance, the turbulent streams were even more violent.
Moreover, these turbulent streams didn't scatter in all directions like outside; they all flowed towards a specific location.
This made the turbulent streams here even more fierce and terrifying than those at the entrance.
However, after stepping into the Middle Stage, dealing with these turbulent streams wasn't as difficult for Su Chen.
At least, he had enough to venture deeper.
The surroundings grew darker, with barely any light remaining.
Fortunately, his Demon Hunter skill enhanced his vision, allowing him to see even in this dark corridor.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, a stone door blocked Su Chen's path.
The turbulent streams were gushing out from the gaps in the stone door.
This stone door could stop most people, but for Su Chen, it wasn't a significant problem.
Having studied the Nine Bend Mechanism Technique, he naturally had no trouble with this type of stone door lock.
With the help of his Skillful Artisan Heavenly Providence, unlocking the door took almost no time at all.
Soon, he opened the stone door.
The turbulent streams became even more intense, and after advancing to the Fifth Stage Intermediate, he could feel the pressure within.
Having come this far, he gritted his teeth and forced himself to enter.
Inside, there were surprisingly two more stone doors.
He persisted and walked for an hour, finally reaching a spacious secret chamber.
On the walls of this chamber were numerous drawings.
They seemed to be recording something.
The drawings depicted a great battle between two human factions, and they appeared to be quite similar.
One side seemed to want to enslave the other.
Around the drawings were some strange monsters, looking quite terrifying.
Su Chen couldn't quite understand the meaning of these drawings.
He could only try to remember the contents as much as possible and discuss them with others later.
After examining the drawings, Su Chen turned his attention to the center of the chamber.
The turbulent streams were flowing out from this central area.
Focusing intently, Su Chen walked towards the center.
The turbulent streams grew more violent, but fortunately, going around from the side made it slightly better.
However, facing these powerful streams, he still couldn't hold out for long.
He approached and observed from a closer distance.
The source of these streams was a small spherical object.
It seemed that this sphere was an extremely mysterious and precious treasure.
Or perhaps, it was some kind of magical artifact.
But these artifacts kept releasing turbulent streams.
Even knowing it was a magical artifact, he didn't have the ability to control it.
Su Chen furrowed his brows, deep in thought.
There seemed to be a circle of strange objects around the artifact.
These objects looked like some kind of container.
In the face of these turbulent streams, he couldn't hold out for long.
Seeing this, Su Chen didn't hesitate.
Using his Skillful Artisan Heavenly Providence, he began to manipulate the objects before him.
Without guidance, Su Chen could only rely on his own knowledge to guess.
And based on his understanding, the container was indeed opened.
The small spherical artifact beside it fit perfectly, just able to be placed inside the container.
After being placed inside, the turbulent streams stopped instantly.
The streams that couldn't be contained by the stone door were easily blocked by this container.
All the turbulent streams in the chamber disappeared.
Su Chen looked at the object in his hand, feeling like he had obtained an incredibly powerful artifact.
With the streams stopped, this strange situation would surely attract attention.
Su Chen didn't hesitate, quickly running out with the artifact in hand.
Exiting the corridor, there were still no signs of people from Yue Xi Mountain.
But it wouldn't be long before they arrived.
Heading north for a distance, Su Chen found a hidden location.
He began to study the artifact.
The artifact was sealed inside the container, not taking up much space.
It could be held in one palm.
Su Chen also studied the container, eventually understanding its usage.
This object was tailor-made for the spherical artifact.
The container could reveal holes.
Once these holes were opened, they would spew out turbulent streams.
These streams could assist martial artists in their cultivation.
But for it to be effective, the streams had to be suitable, and the martial artist's state had to be right.
If he mastered this artifact, using it against enemies would not be helping them cultivate.
The violent streams would disrupt their opponents' minds.
One's own strength would also need to be divided to deal with these streams.
This was an excellent support artifact.
No matter the opponent's strength, the influence of these streams would exist.
The stronger the martial artist, the smaller the impact, and the easier it would be to deal with.
But it would definitely be effective.
Su Chen tried multiple times, aiming to become proficient with the artifact.
After using it several times, Su Chen felt a strong affinity with the artifact.
Firstly, the artifact was portable, and carrying it wouldn't affect him.
The container for the spherical artifact required an understanding of mechanisms, making it difficult to use.
Even with understanding, without his level of proficiency, it would be challenging to control in actual combat.
