Chapter 629: Chapter 35 Perfection, Ready to Advance_2

Before Refining Qi into God, many issues had plagued him. However, as God and Body Integration reached Perfection, the Primordial Spirit and the body completely fused, inseparable, each inch of flesh infused with the essence of the Primordial Spirit.

Just one drop of blood was all he needed to be reborn anew.

This was the true essence of Blood Rebirth.

Because of this, he had solved the problem with the Inner Core Skill.

Refining God and Returning to Void marked a very clear transition within the Inner Core Skill.

The Inner Core Skill to Refining Qi into God focused only on cultivating the body, but from Refining God and Returning to Void, the practice shifted to cultivating the spirit.

The body nourishes the spirit, nurturing the Pure Yang within and stepping onto the path of Pure Yang Immortality.

Upon successful Immortality, the physical body would be cast aside and the immortal body reshaped.

At this stage, the physical body was not the original flesh but a reconstituted immortal form.

“I encountered issues with Refining Qi into God because I was unwilling to give up cultivating my physical body, leading to a division, but now that the Primordial Spirit and body have merged, inseparable from each other, my strength has greatly increased. Hence, I must enter Refining God and Returning to Void…”

“Both the body and the Primordial Spirit must Return to Void together!”

The terms ‘body’ and ‘Primordial Spirit’ were just his way of referring to what were essentially one and the same.

“As long as the progress bar continues to advance, it means I will surely find a way through!”

That had been his initial objective.

“However, before that, I must bring the final stage of Refining Qi into God to Perfection…”

Because of God and Body Integration, his progress in the Inner Core Skill had not improved for several years.

But he was very close to Perfection, just one step away.

“God and Body Integration reached Perfection faster than I had anticipated, taking only two years. The World of Ten Thousand Clans has not even called for aid, so let’s see how far I can go…”

Wang Sheng did not hesitate. He began to draw out the Pure Spiritual Power gathered all over Datong for several years and absorbed it, enhancing his Primordial Spirit’s progress.

The concentration of Pure Spiritual Power on the entire Source Star was nothing short of staggering.

The progress had slowed down considerably later on.

Yet, under such a massive infusion of Pure Spiritual Power, the rate of progress was as he expected, quite swift.

“With this pace, I should be able to enter Refining God and Returning to Void before the World of Ten Thousand Clans opens the inter-realm passage. If not, then only a split incarnation can go…”

The most important matter at hand was breaking through Refining God and Returning to Void; everything else was futile.

The True Monarch Daojun was certainly a formidable opponent.

Lacking strength, he would not risk going.

…

While Wang Sheng strived to enhance his own strength, far away in the Chaotic Realm, the strength of True Monarch Daojun was also swiftly increasing.

The benefits of devouring a world had begun to reflect back onto the Chaotic Realm.

The area of the Chaotic Realm had expanded once again.

The density of energy had multiplied several times over, making the cultivation environment far better.

The ones who truly reaped the greatest benefits were the top cultivators.

Secret True Monarch and Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch, both already at the peak of the Eighth Realm, had progressed yet again.

“Still not reaching the Ninth Realm… People say that I stand at the peak of the Eighth, but even after the peak, there’s still another peak, and the Ninth Realm seems unattainably far…” Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch was deeply vexed. He could tell his strength had increased, but he was still nowhere near the Ninth Realm.

“Our Cultivation Systems are of our own creation, with no precedent to follow, the so-called peak is merely what we proclaim ourselves to be, and besides, if the Ninth Realm were so easy to break through, the gap wouldn’t be as vast,” Secret True Monarch had a very calm mindset.

“Of course, I understand that, but it’s so frustrating. Anyway, did anyone break through the Eighth Realm this time?”

“Yes, more than one. Three Pulse Masters took advantage of this opportunity to become True Monarchs. However, they are currently in seclusion to stabilize their new status and it will probably take them some time before they emerge,” Secret True Monarch appeared indifferent to worldly matters, but he was well-informed about everything.

“Three, huh… That’s decent. Finally, we’re back to having five True Monarchs since our losses were so substantial!”

“World No.1 has indeed come as a surprise, but it won’t take long before we strike back,” Secret True Monarch was acutely aware of which place Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch was talking about—it was the planet where they had nearly suffered a total wipeout of their True Monarchs.

“Strike back… that will probably depend on True Monarch Daojun. How much will he gain from this time?”

“How could I possibly know the affairs of the True Monarch Daojun? Even if he doesn’t undergo a qualitative change and step into the Tenth Realm, he will definitely progress, maybe even breaking free from his limitations.”

Daojun’s limitations were no secret among the True Monarchs of the Chaotic Realm.

“Is that so?” Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch was somewhat surprised.

If the issues with Daojun could be resolved, they would have more confidence in the upcoming clashes.

“I’ve heard some rumors…” Secret True Monarch did not elaborate further, but neither did he deny it.

Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch didn’t ask further.

The matters of a Dao Monarch, understanding the general picture was already the limit.

At this moment, within the palace that bore the trait of a Dao Monarch, a powerful aura converged.

[How is the progress?] The Will of the Chaotic Realm World appeared.

“It’s not bad, my strength has improved a bit. Indeed, the direction of world devouring is the correct one, but it’s a pity that the problem is not completely resolved. I still cannot totally free myself from the world’s entanglement.”

[Still can’t… Could it be that there’s no chance of liberation? As a Ninth Realm, you shouldn’t be confined to just one world!]

“Don’t worry, this is only temporary. My breakthrough to the Ninth Realm was a shortcut, so it’s not surprising there are consequences. Besides, this attempt wasn’t fruitless. Just two or three more worlds to devour, and then I can truly break free.”

[That’s very good. I have some good news. The world we just devoured has a cross-realm gateway leading to a new world. The only pity is that the gateway isn’t fully open yet, and as of now, it is only accessible by Seventh Realm.]

“No matter, that item can still be used several times. Just force it open directly.”

[The item left by that person really helped us a lot; otherwise, invading wouldn’t have been so simple. It’s a shame to waste one opportunity.]

“Waste? How could it be a waste? Once the cross-realm gateway is genuinely open, without restrictions, I will go personally!” Dao Monarch showed a cold smile, especially for that world, it cannot be overlooked.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t wait to devour more worlds to enhance his strength.

“I’ll go open the new cross-realm gateway first.”

Before long, Dao Monarch arrived in a desolate world.

This world was filled with black mist, desolate throughout, like the Void, devoid of any vitality.

This was a world after being devoured.

The so-called black mist was a sign of the death of the world and planets.

It meant that no resources would ever be born in this world—nothing but a space steeped in deathly stillness.

After being devoured by the Chaotic Realm, this space belonged to the Chaotic Realm, and Dao Monarch could come and go freely.

His gaze was indifferent, following the guidance of the World Will, he arrived before a gateway.

The gateway was similar to the ones on the Source Star, both were huge round gates twisted with chains.

Only now the gateway was half-open, waiting to be fully unlocked before the circular gate would disappear altogether.

Upon seeing the gate, Dao Monarch took out a black metallic cube.

Following that, he poured energy into the cube.

Boom!

The cube burst forth with a formidable energy, turning into a black long knife that slashed at the chains of the gateway.

Clang!

The sound of metal echoed; the chains didn’t break but showed a fine, unhealable crack.

In no time at all, the chains would be utterly shattered.

“Two years’ time!”

Dao Monarch stated a timeframe, and the World Will went back to have the Chaotic Realm’s forces prepare.

At this moment, on the other side of the cross-realm gateway, with identical chains, a figure stood guard in front of the portal.

Crack!

Not long after a crack appeared in the chain at the other end, the same kind of crack appeared here.

“So it’s coming after all? Who knows how long it can last… It’ll take some time to call them back, let’s hope we can find some support…”

Several worlds began preparations.

…

Soon, a year passed.

Wang Sheng woke from his retreat.

He had spent the year fully dedicated to enhancing his strength.

As hard work pays off, Refining Qi into God, his Primordial Spirit Stage was nearing Perfection.

“Next is to break through Refining God and Returning to Void, but I still need some time… seems like I’ll have to send an avatar first…”

The breakthrough wouldn’t happen quickly, so a projection would be sent ahead.

And his true self was about to take the final step!
