Chapter 1136: Chapter 1136: Breaking Through Again
Back at Tianying Pavilion, Feng Wuchen found that several assassins had gathered above Sun Moon Lake, including Chasing Moon and Bright Moon.
âIs this Tianying Pavilion?â What surprised Feng Wuchen was that they were chatting.
Feng Wuchen had been with Tianying Pavilion for quite some time and had never seen such a scene.
Assassins of Tianying Pavilion were almost always solitary, and most of them were not familiar with each other; they only knew of each otherâs existence.
In Feng Wuchenâs memory, Tianying Pavilion was very quiet, rarely seeing other assassins; those who didnât know any better might even think it haunted.
âMission completed?â Noticing Feng Wuchenâs return, Chasing Moon asked.
Feng Wuchen nodded and asked curiously, âWhat are you talking about? Itâs rare to see Tianying Pavilionâs assassins gathering for a chat.â
âEarly Heavenly Monarch Realm! Impressive! Congratulations,â Feng Wuchen recognized at a glance that Bright Moon had broken through to the Heavenly Monarch Realm.
After more than a month of seclusion, Bright Moon had successfully broken through to the early stage of the Heavenly Monarch Realm.
âThe latest news, the Palace Masterâs daughter Chi Yue from the Moon God Palace was seriously injured by someone. The Palace Master of Moon God Palace is furious. All major forces in the Ling Realm are hunting the perpetrator. It is said that whoever can capture and kill this person will have Chi Yueâs hand in marriage. This matter has shocked the entire Ling Realm,â Bright Moon said indifferently.
âOh? Thatâs happening? To stir up all the major forces in the Ling Realm, it seems that the Moon God Palace is not weak. So if an old man kills this person, Chi Yue will also marry him?â Feng Wuchen asked in astonishment.
âMoon God Palace is one of the great powers under Emperor Ling, very strong. With a single word from Chi Yue, countless cultivators are vying to become the son-in-law of Moon God Palace,â said an assassin coldly, without showing any expression.
âI thought it was some big deal,â Feng Wuchen shrugged and said, âYou guys donât tell me youâre also thinking about becoming the son-in-law, right?â
âWait a minute!â As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Wuchen seemed to remember something. He looked at Chasing Moon and others, frowning and asking, âIs Chi Yue that tyrannical and domineering woman who rides the Heavenly Profound Crane?â
Hearing what Feng Wuchen said, Chasing Moon and Bright Moon looked at Feng Wuchen in astonishment.
âYouâre not the one who hit her, are you?â Bright Moon asked in shock.
âIsnât that too much of a coincidence?â Feng Wuchenâs face suddenly changed, as he had confirmed that the white-clothed woman he had seriously injured before was indeed Chi Yue from the Moon God Palace.
âWas it really you?â Chasing Moon and Bright Moon asked in unison, all with faces full of shock.
Feng Wuchen spread his hands helplessly and said with a wry smile, âIt shouldnât be wrong.â
Feng Wuchen then recounted the whole incident, and Chasing Moon and the others also confirmed that it was undoubtedly Feng Wuchen who had seriously injured Chi Yue.
âChi Yue is tyrannical and overbearing; indeed, she had it coming. If it were me, I would have done the same,â Bright Moon actually felt that Feng Wuchen did the right thing.
Frowning, Chasing Moon said, âDonât underestimate the power of the Moon God Palace, Wind Shadow. Be very careful in your future actions, and donât forget youâve also provoked Emperor Ling.â
âAnyway, no one has seen me, it doesnât matter,â Feng Wuchen shrugged, unconcerned, not to mention he also had the identity of Wind Shadow.
Feng Wuchen hadnât expected that the domineering woman he encountered by chance was actually the daughter of the Moon God Palace.
After speaking, Feng Wuchen returned to his own palace.
With a thought, Feng Wuchen entered the Seventh Layer space of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower and began cultivating alchemy and artifact refining, further enhancing his mastery in the four professions.
Feng Wuchen had a solid foundation and was highly accomplished in all four realms of the Ling Realm, so increasing his level was just a matter of time.
The Seventh Layer space of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower was just the solution to that problem.
With the Primordial Spirit Avatar condensed out, Feng Wuchenâs original body cultivated soul power, while the avatar cultivated strength. Both were progressing simultaneously.
In a monthâs time, Feng Wuchen managed to break through to the Spirit Grade in all four domains.
A month outside, but on the Seventh Layer of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, five months had passed, almost half a year.
After cultivating for half a year, Feng Wuchenâs cultivation was already close to breaking through to the late phase of the King Realm.
After all, cultivation through the Primordial Spirit Avatar was merely a pure absorption of Spiritual Energy, not the miraculous method of cultivating the Heavenly Dao Life Chart.
Feng Wuchen had devoted his energy to the four major fields; otherwise, breaking through the late phase of the King Realm within half a year would not be a problem.
âThe Evil Dragonâs accomplishments in the four major fields are truly horrifying, and the four ancient methods obtained for these domains are equally mystical. Even in the Heavenly Realm, the enhancement of soul power is remarkably astonishing,â Feng Wuchen muttered to himself, unable to help but marvel at the power of the Evil Dragon.
âIn the Heavenly Realm, there are only six major realms. However, it took me nearly half a year to break through from Spirit Grade to Immortal Grade. Indeed, the upgrading of realms is extremely difficult,â Feng Wuchen continued inwardly.
Such a terrifyingly rapid progression and still considered slowâif others knew, wouldnât they beat Feng Wuchen to death out of envy?
Upon breaking through his realm, Feng Wuchen was in high spirits.
âItâs time to break through to the late phase of the King Realm,â Feng Wuchen anticipated in his mind.
A breakthrough in cultivation meant that Feng Wuchenâs combat strength would be substantially enhanced.
With a thought, Feng Wuchen arrived at the Fifth Layerâs space.
Breakthroughs require immense and sustained power. The Fifth Layerâs space possesses vast and pure power, which is advantageous for Feng Wuchenâs breakthrough.
Feng Wuchen sat cross-legged, took a deep breath, and cast all distractions from his mind.
The power of the Heavenly Dao accelerated in its activation, bursting forth with full force, its domineering and powerful energy sweeping through frantically, with dazzling golden light enveloping the entire space.
âBreak!â
âHumming!â
Feng Wuchen shouted explosively, commanding the tyrannical Divine Power of the Heavenly Dao to assail the barrier of the late King Realm. With a thunderous boom, the terrifying power shook the Fifth Layerâs space.
Breaking through is by no means an easy task; it requires extremely powerful strength!
The first assault left the barrier completely unmoved.
Since Feng Wuchen had decided to break through, giving up had never crossed his mind.
âAgain!â Feng Wuchen yelled, once more driving the Heavenly Dao Divine Power to strike at the barrier.
After repeated impacts, the resistance of the barrier diminished more and more.
Finally, as the saying goes, heaven favors the diligent, and after more than a dozen frenzied impacts by Feng Wuchen, the barrier to the late King Realm completely crumbled.
Feng Wuchen successfully broke through to the late stage of the King Realm.
Upon advancing to the late stage of the King Realm, an overwhelmingly strong force emerged within the Qi Sea, erupting like a volcano. Both his strength and body were dramatically enhanced, and this intense power brought Feng Wuchen extreme elation.
âWith the cultivation breakthrough, my strength instantly grew tenfold or more. The realms within the Heavenly Realm are truly profound,â Feng Wuchen exclaimed excitedly, the sensation of growing stronger evoking an urge to roar triumphantly towards the heavens.
The meridians throughout Feng Wuchenâs body expanded, with the flowing power being several times stronger than before.
If the strength Feng Wuchen previously channelled was like a small stream, it was now surging like a river, the power instinctively activated now more than tenfold stronger than before the breakthrough.
âWith my current level of cultivation, should I unleash a Divine Artifact and fight with all my might, I fear I could even contend with a Heavenly Monarch-level powerhouse for a while,â Feng Wuchen declared confidently.
The enhancement of his strength made Feng Wuchen more confident and better equipped to protect himself.
