Chapter 299: Finally Here.
For Peak Legends, entering the Earth Immortal Realm was a gamble on whether their Primordial Spirit could even integrate with the ocean of vitality. How could they think of anything more? Yet, here was Su Qin, thinking about how deep he could go into the ocean of vitality!
Although the ocean of vitality was not really an ocean, it was similar to one. As it was a huge body of vitality that flowed between the Heavens and Earth.
Breaking through to the Earth Immortal Realm only required one’s Primordial Spirit to touch the surface of the ocean of vitality.
However, although the vitality contained in the surface in the ocean of vitality was vast, compared to its depths, the former was worse.
Of course, ordinary Peak Legends didn’t care about this. Simply because by the time they manage to touch the ocean of vitality, they would have already exhausted all of their strength.
Su Qin was different. Just… Better.
“The deeper you go, the greater the pressure you will feel, and the more dangerous it will be to integrate into it. If one is not careful, one will be squeezed into mush by it.”
Su Qin wore a solemn look.
This was also the reason why he did not immediately try to break through after obtaining the Golden Crow Divine Body. Although his body was now powerful, comparable to a real Dharma Body, his Primordial Spirit had not undergone the essential transformation.
Besides, even if Su Qin’s Primordial Spirit transformed, unless he can destroy the world in a single thought, he would still be vulnerable against the ocean of vitality that symbolizes the vitality of the world.
“The wave of vitality is recovering, and the ocean of vitality would also begin to make waves. At this time, if my Primordial Spirit is integrated into it and encounters some rising ‘currents’, I’ll definitely be swept by it, then crushed…”
Su Qin thought silently in his heart.
The recovery of the ocean of vitality had made it easier to connect with the ocean of vitality. However, just as there were pros, there’s also cons.
Benefits come with risks.
“With my current body, once I maintain the Golden Crow Divine Body state, I can easily control the power of fire. Therefore, making me more sensitive to the ocean of vitality…”
Su Qin slightly sighed.
With this, if Su Qin didn’t want a foolproof breakthrough process, he could have entered the Earth Immortal Realm already. The reason why the Element Source was sought after was because it could help with the breakthrough of a Peak Legend. With its huge elemental power, one could feel the ocean of vitality in the depths of the void. It was equivalent to having directions that one could follow. There was no longer a risk of getting lost in the depths of the void.
In Su Qin’s case, he replaced this with the Golden Crow Divine Body. Not only that, compared to Element Sources, what the Golden Crow Divine Body could feel was much more detailed and accurate.
While Su Qin was thinking about how to safely enter the Earth Immortal Realm…
Outside the Tang Empire, in a valley that was filled with the scent of medicine.
Qingmang’s figure silently appeared.
“Qingmang, how did it go? Did the Tang Empire’s Legend accept my proposal?” Not long after Qingmang appeared, an aged voice sounded. An old man in a white robe then slowly walked out, not too far from Qingmang.
It wasn’t only the old man, as several other figures also began to appear, staring at Qingmang with inquisitive eyes.
“It seems that you are recovering well, Medicine Master.” Qingmang glanced at the old man with a smile on his face, then shook his head and said, “No, he did not accept the proposal.”
“Humph~!”
“Then he can go to HeII! Just wait until the Major Sects come reaping his life. Why would we be afraid of a Peak Legend?” Before the Medicine Master could speak, a certain figure beside him suddenly appeared. A cold voice was heard, announcing the fate of Su Qin.
“That’s right.”
“I’ve already given that Legend a chance.”
The Medicine Master slightly nodded, with a look of pity on his face, “Alas, that fellow has too much of an appetite and wants it all for himself…”
The other figures’ expressions also showed that they shared the same opinion.
Su Qin’s strength was indeed very strong. As he could kill three Peak Legends with Primordial Spirits and that he’s at their level: a Half-Step Earth Immortal.
But no matter how strong one’s strength was, how could he compete with multiple Major Sects. How many of them had thousands of years worth of heritage? If it were other treasures, the Major Sects might have just given up, but the battlefield was different.
“When are we going to the Tang Empire?” At this moment, another voice sounded.
“We’ll go in seven days.” Qingmang pondered for a moment, then said, “I still need a few days to adjust myself.”
Although after a year of Cultivation, Qingmang’s strength had almost recovered. After all, he had slept for more than two thousand years, he still needed some time to adapt.
“Alright.”
“Seven days it is.”
“We’ll let that Legend live for seven more days.”
The cold voice from before sounded again.
No one refuted this, including Qingmang. Once they joined forces, Su Qin’s death was certain.
After all, with more than five Half-Step Earth Immortals joining forces, each carrying their respective treasures, apart from real Earth Immortals, who could face them?
- ווו
Tang Empire, Chang’an City.
Su Qin naturally didn’t know that he was already a dead man in the eyes of the Half-Step Earth Immortals from the Major Sects.
However, even if he knew, he would only smile in response.
The reason why he didn’t show his strength in front of Qingmang was indeed because he didn’t have any intention of harming the people in the palace. However, the more important reason was that Su Qin wanted to wipe out the threats from the Major Sects.
If Su Qin killed Qingmang, would the remaining Half-Step Earth Immortals dare to come?
By that time, they’ll just be hiding in the dark, quietly dealing with the Tang Empire. At that point, Su Qin would need to spend time chasing and killing them. That would be troublesome.
On this day, Su Qin was hanging out in the palace with Su Yueyun and Emperor Li Sheng.
He finally had the confidence to face the Major Sects. Not to mention that he was considering how to safely enter the Earth Immortal Realm, so he suspended his Cultivation and spent time with his family instead.
“Third Brother, those overseas Martial Artists said that you have destroyed the Myriad Sword Sect, is this true?” Empress Su Yueyun couldn’t help asking.
As the recovery of the wave of vitality further intensified, more and more overseas Martial Artists had entered the Tang Empire. Even people from minor Sects had even taken refuge in the Tang Empire.
Overseas, although the Major Sects overlooks the place, there were still minor Sects.
These minor Sects were far inferior to the former, so they took refuge in the Tang Empire.
Emperor Li Sheng also readily agreed with this.
After all, with Su Qin’s deterrence, these minor Sects would not dare to play any tricks.
It was also through these minor Sects that Su Yueyun came to know about Su Qin’s ‘feat’ overseas.
As soon as Su Yueyun’s voice sounded, Emperor Li Sheng’ ears pricked up. Obviously, he was also very curious about this.
With the constant contact with those overseas Martial Artists, Emperor Li Sheng became more and more aware of the importance of the Major Sects.
Even the weakest one had at least a thousand years of background.
If Su Qin wasn’t here, any disciple from the Major Sects could have trampled on the Tang Empire.
“Yes.” Su Qin smiled and casually replied.
After receiving Su Qin’s affirmation, Emperor Li Sheng and Su Yueyun looked at each other, their faces showing their shock.
Even if they had already confirmed this in advance, it was still difficult to control themselves when they heard Su Qin admit it.
A Major Sect, that had produced countless strong people, was destroyed just like that?
“Third Brother, have you become a God?” Su Yueyun asked tentatively, after calming down.
“I’m not a God. That’s something only in the myths and legends. I’m just a Martial Artist.”
Su Qin shook his head.
According to Su Qin’s understanding of the Cultivation System, even an Earth Immortal was not a God, not to mention Su Qin.
Su Yueyun and Emperor Li Sheng both nodded, understanding.
Just when Su Yueyun wanted to continue talking, Su Qin suddenly raised his head and looked around. A smile appeared on his face.
“They’re finally here.” Su Qin said in a low voice.
“Who’s here? Third Brother, who are you talking about?” Emperor Li Sheng asked, as he looked around.
Other than them, there were only some patrolling guards in the vicinity. Who else was here?
Just when Emperor Li Sheng and Su Yueyun were confused, an indifferent voice suddenly sounded.
“Hahaha, I’ve heard from Qingmang long ago that fellow Daoist has a keen sense of perception. It seems that it is indeed as extraordinary as he said!”
Immediately after, under the shocked gaze of Emperor Li Sheng and Su Yueyun, one figure after another began to appear in the void. Finally, seven figures floated above the palace. They were looking down, like gods overlooking ants.
The moment these seven figures appeared, their auras skyrocketed. It seemed as though they had broken through the void, coming in contact with the vast and endless ocean of vitality.
