BXBX NOVEL Chapter 119: Chaos.
Right Spring Square.
Su Qin’s current expression was that of delight.
At this moment, his True Essence was several times greater than before the breakthrough, and it has also been transformed into another type of True Essence. This new type of True Essence is much stronger and more complex.
“Not bad.”
Su Qin was extremely satisfied.
When he broke through from the 1st Heavenly Layer to the 3rd Heavenly Layer, his True Essence also skyrocketed several times, but entering the 4th Heavenly Layer has exceeded all of the three combined.
What’s more terrifying is that after this breakthrough, there was a new type of True Essence.
Compared with the increase in ‘quantity’, Su Qin was more looking forward to the improvement of ‘quality’.
“Let’s forget about True Essence for a second, and see how much control I have over the Power of Heaven and Earth after entering the 4th Heavenly Layer.”
Su Qin’s mind then slowly blended into the Heavens and Earth.
The biggest difference between Arhats/Legends to the 9 Grades is in controlling the Power of Heaven and Earth.
In the 9 Grades, even those Peak Grade 1, can only slightly control the Power of Heaven and Earth.
But once you become an Arhat/Legend, you will be able to completely control the Power of Heaven and Earth, your gestures will be like that of the Heavens and Earth itself.
This is the reason why Arhats/Legends can ignore the number of opponents, like being overwhelmed by an army.
Unless they face a Powerhouse of the same level, Arhats/Legends have nothing to worry about.
[Weng~]!
Su Qin’s Divine Sense continued to spread until it covered a radius of twenty miles around him.
“My control actually reached twenty miles!”
Su Qin was happy with the improvement.
Back when he was in the 1st Heavenly Layer, he was able to control several li, and when he reached Peak 3rd Heavenly Layer, it raised to ten miles.
After that, no matter how Su Qin Cultivated, his control was stuck at ten miles, as if ten miles is already the limit of the 3rd Heavenly Layer.
“Now, I can control the Power of Heaven and Earth within 20 miles. This will increase my strength ten times.”
The difference between ten miles and twenty miles may seem to be only divided by 2, but in fact, it was not so simple.
Whether it is in terms of the vastness or the flexibility of the Power of Heaven and Earth, the two were not at the same level.
“No wonder when a 3rd Heavenly Layer enters the 4th Heavenly Layer, there will be a big change. And it seems that this is more than just a qualitative change…”
Su Qin couldn’t help but sigh.
“If a 4th Heavenly Layer is already so powerful, what about the 7th Heavenly Layer? The 9th Heavenly Layer? Is it possible to destroy the world with just one’s hand?”
Su Qin thought.
Though Su Qin doesn’t know if there were people that had achieved the 9th Heavenly Layer. After all, even the Shaolin Temple, who has inherited thousands of years of Buddhist Holy Land, only had an Arhat that reached the 6th Heavenly Layer.
According to Su Qin’s knowledge from the ancient book in the Shaolin Temple, the reason why the Arhat was able to cultivate up to the 6th Heavenly Layer was entirely because he encountered great fortune within the depths of the Endless Ocean.
“Endless Ocean…”
Su Qin raised his head slightly and looked beyond the Mainland.
As early as when he obtained the animal skin from the Demon Lord, Su Qin knew that within the depths of the Endless Ocean, there might be another world.
“There are indeed great opportunities in the Endless Ocean, but there are also great risks.”
“For instance, in the Shaolin Temple more than two thousand years ago, there was an Arhat who went to the Endless Ocean but was never able to come back…”
“Anyways, as long as I keep Signing In, I can always become stronger. There is no need to go to the Endless Ocean…”
Su Qin shook his head slightly.
Other Arhats/Legends might have crossed the sea because either it was difficult to advance their strength or their lifespan was about to hit the limit. Hence they had to do this as a last resort, in order to gain that glimmer of hope.
But Su Qin is different.
He has a sufficient lifespan and can live for 970 years, coupled with no shortage of Cultivation resources, why bother venture into the Endless Ocean?
Isn’t that like being a Crown Prince of an Empire and was about to inherit the throne, but just suddenly abandon everything…?
Isn’t this just a stupid move?
Su Qin has a cautious personality. Of course he chooses the safest and most reliable path.
“Now, let’s stabilize my realm…”
Su Qin thought for a while, then slowly closed his eyes again, and kept using [Past Amitabha Sutra] to circulate his True Essence.
The next day.
Su Qin stabilized his realm a bit, and then exited.
Everything in the Palace is as usual. Now that there is a new and diligent Emperor, the entire Tang Empire was thriving.
It’s just that the East Palace has always been deserted, so there was not much change here. Though Su Qin doesn’t really care about this. After all, he liked the quietness. The current environment of the East Palace is just right for him.
“Time flies so fast…”
Su Qin paced around slowly and leisurely thought.
He has been in this world for thirty years and has become a 4th Heavenly Layer Arhat.
…
Next, Su Qin returned to his previous life.
Despite achieving the 4th Heavenly Layer, Su Qin didn’t become complacent because he knew that there were people outside the Mainland and there is always someone stronger.
There’s also the Endless Ocean.
Hence, Su Qin still continued his Sign In and Cultivation every day.
Then one year passed in a blink of an eye.
This year, Emperor Li Sheng became the Head Examiner.
Every candidate in the future will no longer be under a certain courtier, but instead a student of the Emperor.
Following this, the factional strife in the court has obviously eased by a lot.
Though, Emperor Li Sheng understood that this move would not completely cure the factional dispute, because as long as there are people in the court, factions forming was inevitable.
Nonetheless, it will slow it down.
Emperor Li Sheng was already satisfied with this result.
Late at night.
The Officials hurried to the Primal Chaos Palace. Emperor Li Sheng was sitting on the Dragon Throne with a gloomy expression.
The Officials also looked solemn, as if something major had happened.
After a long time, an Official braced himself and asked respectfully: “Your Majesty, where did this matter come from? Is it true or not…”
When he asked this, Emperor Li Sheng stood up and said a very depressed voice: “Is it true or not?”
He then took out a piece of paper, and read each word written on it:
“On the night of the full moon, I’ll borrow your Palace. Brother Chuuxue and I will use it to discuss the Dao of the Sword. From: Baiyun City Lord Ye Gucheng.”
After Emperor Li Sheng finished reading, he looked directly at Officials: “Now, this matter has long been spread out, the world knows it!”
“Now say, what should we do?!”
Emperor Li Sheng’s voice barely sounded and the complexion of the Officials already changed wildly.
Although they were not Martial Artists, they know the name of the Baiyun City Lord, Ye Gucheng.
In the current world, although a Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmaster is extremely rare, there are a few. Among them is City Lord Ye Gucheng and he is definitely one of the dazzling ones.
