Chapter 949: Sorting the Harvest, Peak of the Dao Fusion
Editor: Henyee Translations
After playing with the Array Spirit for a while, Jiang Chengxuan finally put it away.
While familiarizing himself with the Array Spirit, he vaguely guessed its origins.
The Array Spirit exuded a very subtle but powerful aura, leading Jiang Chengxuan to speculate that this rare divine gift might have originated from the legendary tenth-level array.
Although he couldn’t pinpoint the exact connection, he was certain there was a cause and effect relationship, which might explain the extreme rarity of Array Spirits.
Tenth-level arrays might not exist in the Celestial Floodgate Realm and could potentially annihilate even a Mahayana Daolord if they ventured into one.
Setting up such an array would be as difficult as slaying a Daolord, if not more so.
However, Jiang Chengxuan didn’t intend to delve deeper into this matter.
Having achieved breakthroughs in the three major cultivation arts of alchemy, artifact refinement, and array-making, he was in high spirits and began to organize his gains from this period of seclusion.
First and foremost was his advancement in the Heavenly Calculation Technique to the sixth level.
This technique greatly aided him, and with the breakthrough, it became an even more significant trump card.
Additionally, the sixth level granted him the terrifying Karma Curse divine power, providing him with potential even against Mahayana Daolords.
Next were his advancements in the cultivation arts of spirit plant cultivation and talisman making, further safeguarding his cultivation journey.
The breakthroughs in alchemy, artifact refinement, and arrays were critical, directly boosting his personal strength.
These three cultivation arts all had a key effect. They could directly increase his strength.
They were like troikas. From now on, they would be controlled by Jiang Chengxuan, and his cultivation speed would definitely increase qualitatively.
Pills could not only increase one’s strength, but also one’s combat ability. It was the same for artifact refinement.
Array-making was a skill that could be used to attack, retreat, and defend.
Ordinary cultivators who could master one of them were qualified enough to establish a sect and become a sect master.
At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan had mastered three and was very proficient in them. This was very terrifying.
If the outside world were to find out, his reputation would spread far and wide in no time, and his enemies would have even more headaches.
After all, not only could these skills be used on him, but they were also urgently needed by his sect.
No one would be willing to offend such an existence for no reason. Instead, as soon as they met, they would think of ways to get to know him.
Additionally, the system rewards for these breakthroughs brought him unexpected joy.
An Advancement Pill could directly elevate him to the peak of the Dao Fusion Realm, saving him a millennium of cultivation.
An Upgrading Stone could temporarily elevate a heaven-connecting spiritual treasure to the level of an Arcane Celestial Treasure, acting as a terrifying trump card similar to the ninth-level talisman prepared by his master, Qin Shenwu, for battling Daolord Daolord.
Such treasures essentially gave Jiang Chengxuan an additional life, especially the Array Spirit, a rare and highly coveted item.
Jiang Chengxuan had no concerns about the Array Spirit’s utility.
Arrays were the foundation of the world of cultivation. No force could leave something like arrays.
Be it fighting, defense, or killing, they were all indispensable.
Possessing the Array Spirit as a trump card meant certain death for some of Jiang Chengxuan’s enemies.
This period of seclusion brought significant gains, perhaps the most terrifying to date, enhancing his strength, trump cards, and skills across the board.
From now on, the Celestial Floodgate Realm was his oyster, even facing Mahayana Daolords seemed possible.
Even the Mahayana Daolords, who were formidable before his seclusion, now seemed within his reach for a confrontation.
This level of advancement would take others thousands of years of arduous cultivation.
Satisfied with the outcome, Jiang Chengxuan was not yet ready to rest.
Taking out the Advancement Pill awarded by the system, Jiang Chengxuan took a moment to gather his breath.
Without any hesitation, he swallowed the pill.
In an instant, terrifying power burst from within his body, coursing through his limbs and bones.
This was an extremely pure primordial spirit qi, vast as the ocean.
It seemed to have been refined by some top-level secret technique, presenting no harm or absorption barrier.
This energy flowed throughout Jiang Chengxuan’s body, and every part of him could absorb it.
Without any need for concern, all Jiang Chengxuan had to do was to absorb it fully to achieve the peak sooner.
In his cave abode, his aura steadily climbed as if a seal had been undone, suggesting his strength had long surpassed that of Dao Fusion.
Not just in terms of power, but the Dao within his body was also reaching perfection.
Under the mysterious effect of the Advancement Pill, his body seemed to transform into a body of Dao, naturally merging deeply with the Dao of the Five Elements.
If an outsider were to witness this, they would be utterly astounded.
For a long time, it has always been cultivators seeking the Dao, but never has the Dao sought a cultivator.
But at this moment, that was exactly the case.
The Dao of the Five Elements and the Dao of Samsara both spontaneously manifested, exuding an affinity and merging with Jiang Chengxuan as if he were a reincarnated immortal, which was incredibly terrifying.
Under the effect of the Advancement Pill, Jiang Chengxuan felt comfortable.
Suddenly, at a certain moment, he let out a loud shout, and his aura instantly surged to its peak, overflowing with dominance.
The excess pure energy was released into his cave abode, greedily absorbed by the spiritual land, yet at this moment, his manifested aura had unmistakably reached the peak of Dao Fusion.
“Is this the Advancement Pill? Truly impressive,” Jiang Chengxuan murmured, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
Breaking through to the Dao Fusion Realm had only taken him a little over a hundred years, and now he had already reached the peak.
This was nothing short of miraculous, unprecedented even among the legendary immortals.
A hundred years of seclusion, directly achieving the peak, was already beyond belief, sufficient to shock the entire Celestial Floodgate Realm.
Not to mention, he had many other breakthroughs and gains.
The view from the pinnacle of the Celestial Floodgate Realm was now within Jiang Chengxuan’s reach, ready for him to survey.
