Chapter 202 - The 20 Years Period is up
Chapter 202 The 20 Years Period is up
Name: Jiang Ming
Cultivation Base: Level 10 (Level 11)
Points Accumulated: 90354 Points
Level 8’s Honor: 12 stages record, 18 levels record. 36555 units of special ability.
Jiang Ming was startled looking at his result.
The result which he created after he broke through to Heavenly Immortal Realm: 13 stages record and 18 levels record, was obviously not included. However, his accumulated points were up to about 90 thousand.
This was a surprising number indeed.
Having questions in mind, Jiang Ming went to the heaven battle stage to inquire Jun Sanqian.
“This level is quite special. You can remain here if you have your breakthrough here. But your result is not counted anymore. Once you leave, you will be taken to the next level upon reentering. Therefore, this is considered the last benefit you can earn from the preliminary stage,” Jun Sanqian explained.
“Benefit?” Jiang Ming was surprised. Meanwhile, he made some assumptions himself.
Jun Sanqian smiled as he disclosed, “There’s also a Chat Room in the higher level but the Group Admin changes quite often. Therefore, it’s easier to become a Group Admin while you’re at lower realms than higher realms.” He made a pause before he added while giving Jiang Ming a meaningful glance, “Here, you can see it as a beginner stage.”
Jiang Ming stopped questioning further. Instead, he bowed respectfully three times at Jun Sainqian before he returned to the public square.
He pondered for a while and decided to sleep because he needed a rest.
When he woke up, he saw three people: Luo Heng, Ye Qingxian and Dongfang Chenxi.
“Brother, you’ve finally woken up! I’ve waited for you here for about 10 days already.” Dongfang Chenxi ran over delightedly.
“I haven’t had enough sleep for a long time, so I allowed myself to take a good rest. By the way, why are the three of you here?” Jiang Ming asked as he took a glass of wine from Luo Heng.
“I’m preparing for a breakthrough, a breakthrough to level 11. When we heard Chenxi say that you’re here, we came to meet you.” Luo Heng laughed.
“So fast?” Jiang Ming blurted, astonished.
Luo Heng felt speechless at Jiang Ming’s response but he still explained patiently, “Didn’t you know how long you’ve been here? Although there’s a time gap among different worlds and the time here is also absurd, in my world, 100 years have passed.”
“Mine too! Brother Jiang, we’re going to have a better cultivation base than yours this time!” Ye Qingxian said.
“I’m already at level 11!” Jiang Ming laughed.
“How’s it possible?” Luo Heng was surprised. He knew Jiang Ming would not lie but he hesitated, “Is it that we’re able to stay here even after our breakthrough?”
“There’s such a thing? Can it be that it’s the final hidden benefit for a mortal before his transition to the immortal?” Ye Qingxian was surprised too.
Jiang Ming laughed in response.
“Brother, you’re so amazing! Choosing this path means you’d need boundless time to accumulate yet you’ve already had a breakthrough.” Dongfang Chenxi was even more amazed.
“It’s not that type of breakthrough you have in mind. I’m considered to have entered level 11 because I managed to comprehend a Heavenly Immortal Law. And I’m not sure when I will have my real breakthrough though.” Jiang Ming clarified.
“This is normal then. But this is indeed extraordinary. I’ve decided to get my father to conjure a time formation upon return and I’ll seal my memory to have a good sleep within it.” Dongfang Chenxi said decisively.
Dongfang Chenxi’s words rendered everyone speechless.
As they were chatting, they sat down around a table.
Luo Heng took out a great amount of food as he said, “These are what I purposely prepared. I searched the entire universe for scrumptious food and got many talented chefs to cook. Come, let’s try how they taste.”
“I’m so envious of your universe, Luo Heng. What a gigantic universe that nurtures countless unique creatures, and has incredibly flourishing materials.” Ye Qingxian exclaimed.
“Agree, I have always been envious of Brother Luo. All games, movies, and novels are indeed awe-inspiring. There is no better way to pass time than these.” Dongfang Chenxi said as she smiled.
Luo Heng and Ye Qingxian were left speechless. They were busy cultivating, exploring encounters in order to grow all these while. Yet this little girl here was so free that they became envious of her.
Jiang Ming only laughed. He would have been very if not because of the Devil King Xue Tao’s plot.
Such a gathering lasted for three whole days before it ended.
Both Luo Heng and Ye Qingxian did not leave as they planned to prepare for their breakthrough here.
Meanwhile, Dongfang Chenxi decided to return to her world after a rather long ponder. She said she would fall into a deep sleep to have her inner world evolved to its pinnacle.
As Jiang Ming had completely recovered to his best self, he went back to the life of comprehending Million Dao Chart and Heavenly Monuments as well as challenging heaven battle stage and heavenly ladder.
In the meantime, Luo Heng and Ye Qingxian had a breakthrough one after another, and left.
Time passed unknowingly as Jiang Ming cultivated whole-heartedly.
His special abilities, wills, Heavenly Immortal Laws etc, were improving at an incredible speed.
When he climbed the heavenly ladder again, he managed to step stably on level 28.
As he had successfully resisted the will attack of a Taiyi Golden Immortal expert on level 28, he had his mind and will level akin to a Taiyi Golden Immortal’s.
In fact, he did not stop there but went on. He fell only when he had reached level 31.
And he was extremely ecstatic at his personal achievement.
Though the Golden Immortal and Taiyi were just a level different, the difference was absolutely tremendous. What’s more his Taiyi’s will was beyond average.
‘It’s time for the heaven battle stage!’
Jiang Ming got to the 15th stage directly because he had passed the 14th.
“A human’s potential is infinite. In fact, you’ve gone beyond your potential. When you first came here, the will attack you could resist was the Golden Immortal’s. But now, you manage to resist Taiyi’s. This is incredible!” Jun Sanqian said with a tinge of emotion.
“If it wasn’t without your advice, I won’t be able to reach this level regardless. Senior, can you see the world where I’m from?” Jiang Ming said sincerely.
“Don’t ask, my answer would be ‘I don’t know if you insist on asking,” Jun Sanqian replied with a smile.
This rendered Jiang Ming speechless.
Nevertheless, he understood that Jun Sanqian had given him two answers with his words: first, Jun Sanqian could see it; and second, Jun Sanqian knew what Jiang Ming wanted to ask.
“Can the Supreme Order resist the attack of a Golden Immortal expert and above?” Jiang Ming could not help but ask because he needed an assurance.
“You, living in a mortal world, shall act according to its rules. Within the rules, it’s your fate whether to live or die; outside the rules, the Supreme Order is a symbol of status.” Jun Sanqian did not reply directly but he talked about the rules instead.
Yet Jiang Ming got what Jun Sanqian meant. Jun Sanqian meant that provided the matter went against the rules, the Supreme Order would naturally act accordingly.
Jiang Ming again bowed respectfully before he launched his attack. “Time and Space Confinement!” Jiang Ming evoked the fusion of space and time laws, which he deduced from Heavenly Immortal Dao, based on his inner world’s core. It was at least 1,000 times stronger than that time.
Its terrifying and unusual power froze the space and stopped the time, forming a confinement that confined all things, except Jun Sanqian.
Jun Sanqian did not rush to evoke his best technique for he intended to chasten Jiang Ming.
Though they were standing on a stage, Jiang Ming transformed it into a universe. The aftermath of the battle swept over a distance of 10,000 miles, extraordinarily terrifying.
Jiang Ming even evoked various incredibly terrific special abilities such as the Five Elemental Divine Fists, Five Elemental Marquee, Five Elemental Great Grinder, and Five Elemental Reverse Strangulation Technique he deduced from the Great Five Elemental Technique as well as other special abilities such as Great Yin-Yang Technique, Great Destructive Technique etc.
These were the special abilities Jiang Ming deduced again after he stepped into the Heavenly Immortal Realm. Hence, a lot stronger than before.
Nevertheless, these special abilities were not strong enough to hit against Jun Sanqian.
“Great Manifestation Technique!”
From within Jiang Ming spurted out streams of air as he conjured Five Elemental Clone, Yin-Yang Clone, Light-and-Dark Clone, True Illusion Clone, Karma Clone, among many. “Great World Destructive Technique!”
In a short while, all his clones formed a great formation and built a world which abruptly collapsed so that all forces produced would further sublimate into a terrific destructive force.
Jun Sanqian counteracted by producing a sword’s defense as he wielded his sword, emitting layers of sword qi. His Sword Dao was unpredictably powerful. He could cast millions of laws with a mere sword in his hand. Nonetheless, he failed to resist Jiang Ming’s attack, rendering him looking rather miserable.
“Not bad, not bad. You do improve greatly in each of our battles. Your ability to deduce the world’s destructive technique based on your inner world, and conjure a mighty one with only your clones, at minimum cost. This is awesome!” Jun Sanqian exclaimed before he added, “Let’s continue!”
“Sure!” Jiang Ming was getting more fierceful as he fought.
It was within his expectation that he would fail to hit against Jun Sanqian even after he evoked thousands of special abilities. In fact, he was merely testing all his special abilities he had cultivated because he knew only a few could threaten Jun Sanqian.
“Return of Infinite Law Finger!” As Jiang Ming leapt into the midair, he emitted boundless immortal rays of laws, which fused at his finger tip. He pointed at Jun Sanqian, sending out the ray of light towards Jun Sanqian as he said, “In this finger alone, I’ve fused the forces of 365 Heavenly Immortal Laws!”
Boom!
The finger collapsed the space, reversed the time, exterminated all things and laws, rendering the area into a ruin.
“Fusing infinite laws into one, kid, this is amazing!” Jun Sanqian howled, “I’ve got a sword that can bury heaven and earth, and destroy all living beings into ruin! A slay turns all things into ruin, ending an era.”
On the long sword radiating aura of wither, decay, destruction, curses, death, bloodshed, and other horrific aura.
Such an aura could instantly withered a Heavenly Immortal’s Primal Spirit, and collapse a True Immortal’s physique because it was simply too strong.
These aura layers were the one which resisted Jiang Ming’s finger, but still his arm was blasted into a bloody and holely arm. Jun Sanqian appeared to be miserable.
“Indeed a great Infinite Law of Finger, a great special ability. If you can fuse all 3,000 laws into the finger, I’ll be exterminated. Kid, good job,” Jun Sanqian was delighted.
His wounded arm was completely healed in just a moment but he got a lot weaker.
“I’ve fused all the laws I’ve comprehended to date.” As Jiang Ming said, his physique expanded in a burst, “Senior, do experience my physical combat capability.” “Great Boundless Technique!”
It’s a technique whereby Jiang Ming deduced through Astral Transformation, allowing him to exert his strength to the extreme.
After elicitation, his body would grow up to 100 meters, and his aura got stronger by 100-times. This was incredibly unbelievable.
“Unlimited Killing Punch!”
Jiang Ming lunged forward as he punched in the air, conjuring a frantic attack. His raging blood, his boundless power and his core energy violently surging out from his inner world were supporting his punches.
“Inch Strength Thousand Punch!”
Jiang Ming laughed his head off as he punched. Though his punches overwhelmed Jun Sangian, he could not take him down.
“I’ve got the last bow, which I’ve just comprehended. Senior, do take it!”
“You actually still have another one? Alright, com’n!”
“With my blood raging, and my mind blossoming, I shall fuse laws into Return of Infinite Law Finger, and destroy the world with a finger!”
Jiang Ming fused all the power of his physique, mind, inner world’s core into one. It was the real fusion of Infinite Law that allowed him to make the peerlessly powerful strike. “Jiang Ming, this finger is truly interesting.” Jun Sanqian could not help but nodded as he burst forth his ultimate sword. Unfortunately, he burst into bloody mists along with the sword.
Jiang Ming heaved a sigh of relief and felt extremely weak. He had, after all, spent more than 90% of his enormous power.
He passed the 15th stage. As for the 16th stage, he didn’t go because he knew he wouldn’t pass.
As Jiang Ming returned to the public square, he looked around. He then took out the Supreme Order to check the list of Chat Room’s members. He discovered the appearance of two unknown living beings but Luo Heng, Ye Qingxian etc had left.
‘That’s it for now. I’ve comprehended about 300 laws. I shall let the inner world evolve the rest on its own. It’s simple, and I only need time. The formation of small chiliocosm is just around the corner.’
‘As for my special abilities, will, and strength, I’ve somewhat reached an extreme, hence it’d be incredibly difficult to improve them in a short period. Moreover, because I’m very tired, I think I shall just go back!’
As Jiang Ming thought, he took a glimpse at his accumulated points. There were 68888 points left after he comprehended the Heavenly Monuments.
The accumulated points were still a shocking number anyway. After all, he knew that the accumulated points of Luo Heng and Ye Qingxian did not exceed 100 points.
He immediately left and reappeared on Chuyang Peak.
He was standing on the balcony where he gazed into the scene in the distance.
He somewhat felt unfamiliar. Although a mere hour had passed in reality, he had been staying in the Supreme Pagoda for too long, so long that he felt rather unfamiliar with Chuyang Peak.
He smiled, laid on the rattan chair and started falling asleep. He woke up only after two weeks.
It was a beautiful sunset as the cold breeze blew.
Jiang Ming felt energetic and got familiar again with the place.
Then, he saw Xi Yao pacing over in the air. She looked slightly tired.
“So fast and you’re back? You aren’t looking good, are you alright?” Jiang Ming asked.
For some unknown reason, Jiang Ming felt rather restless and lustful when looking at Xi Yao’s curvy body.
Xi Yao’s head lowered as she complained, “After I left here, I found my Master, who remained kind to me. But many of my fellow disciples were very hostile to me, and some even accused me for not saving the sect?”
Jiang Ming wanted to say that those were morons but he eventually held back. After all, he was the one who slaughtered them.
“They would have died by now without you. You are their savior and you have repaid all past favors by saving the sect’s legacy. From now on, just cultivate here on the mountain, pursue your immortal path and your long life. The past is but the trials of life.” Jiang Ming could not help but comfort.
“That’s not as easy as you’ve said.” Xi Yao pursed her lips.
Jiang Ming felt even more restless, wanting to pull Xi Yao into his arms but held back as he was reminded of the ten Junior Sisters he had.
Xi Yao somewhat felt Jiang Ming’s lustful desire as she surreptitiously took a glimpse at Jiang Ming’s thigh. She blushed as she paced into the sky. “Brother Jiang, I’m going back to my seclusion.”
Jiang Ming rubbed his nose as he tried to calm himself.
The mountain remained tranquil.
Xi Yao came over occasionally for meals.
The four flower fairies also always surrounded him with dances, served him so well that he couldn’t help feeling restless.
“Sigh, Junior Sister has been secluding herself too long. Why didn’t you come back for a while!” Jiang Ming grumbled.
As the time tickled passed, he kept checking on the Devil King Xue Tao while waiting for their arrival.
At this day, Jiang Ming revealed his excitement, “Tonight, the 20 years period is
up!”
