The Heavens: Man Covers the Heavens, Refines Treasures to Become an Emperor

The snow-white feather silently transformed into a stream of light in his palm and instantly disappeared into his body!

Jiang Xuan was greatly alarmed and immediately examined himself internally.

But then he saw that the feather had already appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness, floating quietly and emitting a soft white light.

It did not cause any impact or discomfort to his consciousness, as if it was meant to be there.

He tried to touch and shoo the feathers away with his divine sense, but they didn't react at all; they just floated there quietly.

"eccentric…"

Jiang Xuan frowned.

Wei Mingzi's dying curse and the strangeness of this feather cast a shadow over his heart.

He secretly made a note of this matter and decided to investigate it carefully after leaving the secret realm.

Just then, the entire arena space trembled slightly, and countless shimmering raindrops of light appeared.

The cold, detached notification sound echoed across the platform once again.

[Congratulations to Jiang Xuan for successfully passing the Hundred Battles Realm test!]

Based on your performance, you can choose one of the following three rewards. Time limit: 15 minutes.

As he spoke, a shower of light gathered in front of Jiang Xuan, merging into three dazzling orbs of light that radiated different colors and auras.

The first ball of light was amber in color, and inside it was a faint phantom of a pill the size of a longan with flowing yin-yang fish patterns.

The medicinal power emanating from it was immense and pure, and the information flowed into Jiang Xuan's mind—[Two Elements Cavern Pill].

For cultivators below the Spirit Sea Realm, this product can bypass bottlenecks and directly advance one minor realm, providing a stable foundation with no side effects.

The second ball of light was silvery-white, and inside it was a phantom of an ancient-style inner armor covered with star patterns.

The information is displayed as 【Silverlight Town Star Armor】.

Once worn, it can absorb the power of stars to aid in cultivation and can withstand a full-force attack from an early-stage Spirit Sea Realm expert, making its defensive power astonishing.

The third orb of light was the most peculiar, appearing dark gold, yet its radiance was the most restrained.

Inside, there was a rusty, illusory iron piece, no bigger than a copper coin, floating in the air, as if it might shatter at any moment.

Information floods in—【The Ancient Seal of Heaven-Shaking】.

It is a fragment of the "Heaven-Shaking Ancient Seal", one of the nine treasures of the ancient wilderness.

Although it is damaged, it still contains the core secret technique of the ancient seal, the "Nine Collapses of Heaven".

[Note: This item is extremely heavy; only those with exceptional physical strength can wield it. The secret techniques used to cultivate it are profound and mysterious; only those with extraordinary comprehension can master it.]

These three treasures are all extraordinary!
Elixirs can save one from arduous cultivation, inner armor can protect one's life and path, and fragments of ancient seals represent the inheritance of ancient powerful beings, with boundless potential!

Jiang Xuan's gaze swept quickly across the three options, almost without hesitation. The pills were indeed good.

However, he was confident that his cultivation speed was not slow, and that relying on pills to improve was not the best option; the inner armor was practical.

However, he prefers to improve his own strength rather than rely on external defenses.

Only the seemingly insignificant fragment of the ancient seal, and the [Nine Shaking Heavens Dao] contained within it, made his heart race!
A new and powerful means of combat is exactly what he craves!
The name of the Nine Treasures of the Great Wilderness is even more alluring!

"I choose the third one, the fragment of the Heaven-Shaking Ancient Seal!"

Jiang Xuan said in a deep voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, the other two orbs of light vanished instantly.

The dark golden ball of light slowly flew to Jiang Xuan's front, the light faded, revealing the rusty iron piece.

Jiang Xuan reached out and took it, and his expression changed slightly the moment he touched it!

This tiny fragment was incredibly heavy, as if it were supporting a small mountain!
If his physical body had not undergone numerous temperings, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold it steady.

[Rewards have been distributed. The fourth level of the Heavenly Realm, 'Conquest of the Domain,' requires the player's cultivation to reach the Spirit Sea Realm to unlock. We look forward to your next visit.]

The cold voice disappeared, and the power of teleportation enveloped Jiang Xuan.

In a flash, he was back in his secluded room.

The weight in his hands reminded him of the reality of this harvest.

He placed the rusty fragment of the ancient seal on the ground beside him, making a dull thud.

"The fourth level requires the Spirit Sea Realm... It seems I need to hurry up and improve my cultivation."

Jiang Xuan thought to himself, his gaze falling on the fragments of the ancient seal, preparing to first investigate what kind of secret technique this [Nine Collapses of Heaven and Earth] was.

Just as his divine sense touched the fragment of the ancient seal—

"Ugh—!"

An indescribable, excruciating pain, originating from the depths of his soul, suddenly exploded in his mind!

It felt like my entire skull was about to be torn apart!
Then, a voice he never wanted to hear again, filled with a triumphant and sinister laugh, came through.

It emanated from the snow-white feather that had been silently floating in his mind.

"Hehe... Hahaha! Youngster, you didn't expect that, did you? This old man hasn't vanished yet!"

The snow-white feathers shone brightly, and Wei Mingzi's illusory figure slowly materialized from them, though it was much more blurred than before.

But the aura of resentment and greed remained undiminished!
He looked at Jiang Xuan, who was clutching his head and groaning in pain, with a mocking expression, as if admiring his own masterpiece.

"What a perfect dwelling! Such a resilient physique, such a refined spirit! What's even more wonderful is that you actually survived the Hundred Battles Secret Realm, you must be carrying a treasure bestowed by the secret realm!"
"Once I devour your soul and possess your body, everything, including the opportunities you've worked so hard for, will be mine! Tsk tsk, even obtaining fragments of the Nine Treasures of the Great Wilderness—truly, heaven is on my side!"

Wei Mingzi became more and more excited as he spoke, and his illusory figure even distorted slightly with excitement.

"Boy, you should feel honored to be the stepping stone for my return to the world! Don't worry, I will make good use of this body of yours!"

Before the words were even finished, the snow-white feathers suddenly burst forth with dazzling golden divine light!

This divine radiance was ancient and vast, yet it carried an overbearing will that made it the only one worthy of dominance.

It instantly swept across every corner of Jiang Xuan's sea of ​​consciousness.

Wherever it passed, Jiang Xuan's divine sense rapidly dissolved!
This was a long-planned soul attack by Wei Mingzi, intended to obliterate Jiang Xuan's consciousness in one fell swoop!
"Old...old dog...you...you really...had no good intentions!"

Jiang Xuan endured the terrifying pain of his soul being torn apart and eroded, clenching his teeth and almost squeezing out these words from the depths of his throat.

His consciousness was on the verge of collapse under the impact of the golden divine light.

A strong will to survive and an unyielding spirit are like an inextinguishable fire ignited in a raging storm!

Jiang Xuan desperately held onto his last bit of clarity, frantically activating the Lesser Underworld Divine Art!
"Om-!"

Deep within his sea of ​​consciousness, the blurry phantom of the god of the underworld suddenly became clearer, radiating a vast and ancient majesty!

The grand vision of the universe and starry sky was forcibly visualized!

It is no longer a simple trajectory of stars, but thousands of stars following an unchanging law.

A magnificent scene of orderly and continuous operation!

The cycle of stars has its own unshakeable order and power!

As the celestial cycle manifested, dazzling starlight descended from the illusory starry sky. This starlight was no longer merely light, but contained pure and boundless divine power!

Wherever the starlight passed, the domineering and corrosive golden divine light was dispelled and purified!
"What?! This...this is...Star-Solving Soul Fixation?! Junior! You...you actually deciphered the secrets of the Flowing Light Spirit Runes?! And you even control the power that only a Divine Rune Walker can attain?! No! This is impossible!"

Wei Mingzi, who was laughing triumphantly just a second ago.

At that moment, he let out a horrified scream, as if he had seen a ghost, his voice filled with terror!
He knew better than anyone what it meant to be able to visualize and manipulate the cycle of myriad stars!
This is something that ordinary cultivators could not do!
"Old dog! Your death is near!"

Jiang Xuan's icy voice echoed in his mind.

At this moment, in this sea of ​​consciousness dominated by him.

With the blessing of the Star-Circling Aspect, he seemed to have become a god who controlled the stars!
With a single thought, the endless starlight that had been falling instantly converged into a dazzling Milky Way.

With an overwhelming force capable of crushing all illusions and suppressing all evil, it swept towards Wei Mingzi's lingering phantom!

"No! Spare me! Young friend! Young friend Jiang Xuan! I was wrong! I am willing to serve you as my master! I will offer up all the inheritances of the Taiyi Immortal Sect! I only beg you to spare my life!"

Faced with this overwhelming power of the stars.

The arrogance and greed on Wei Mingzi's face were instantly replaced by boundless fear.

He screamed pitifully, struggled, and made humble pleas, all traces of his previous arrogance gone.

"Begging for mercy now? It's too late!"

Jiang Xuan's eyes were cold, and he remained unmoved.

The only way to eliminate such a vicious person who plots to possess your body is to completely eradicate them and prevent future troubles!
He activated the Lesser Netherworld Divine Art with all his might, and the starlight and galaxy shone brightly, crushing everything like a millstone!

"Ah—! I am not reconciled! My grand plan, meticulously crafted over millennia… has been ruined by a mere junior…"

In Wei Mingzi's final, desperate, and resentful wails.

His fading, phantom image was completely engulfed and torn apart by the dazzling starlight, eventually turning into specks of light.

It completely dissipated into Jiang Xuan's sea of ​​consciousness, leaving no trace whatsoever.

Jiang Xuan continued to use the Lesser Netherworld Divine Technique for another half an hour.

They continued until they confirmed that Wei Mingzi's presence had been completely erased, leaving no trace.

He finally breathed a long sigh of relief and withdrew from the internal vision.

Even with his strong will, he couldn't help but feel a wave of fear, his back soaked with cold sweat.

Wei Mingzi is far too cunning and treacherous. If he hadn't happened to cultivate the Lesser Netherworld Divine Art, which suppresses the soul, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"Divine Rune Walker..."

Jiang Xuan recalled Wei Mingzi's horrified roar before his death, and doubt arose in his heart.

This seems to refer to those powerful figures who can control the "Flowing Light Spirit Patterns"?

Could it be that I inadvertently touched upon this level while practicing the Lesser Netherworld Divine Art and visualizing the celestial phenomena?

He secretly noted down the name, intending to investigate it later.

After calming down, Jiang Xuan turned his attention back to his sea of ​​consciousness. Wei Mingzi had already been killed.

But the pure white feather that caused all of this still floated there quietly, exuding a pure and ethereal aura.

It was as if the thrilling battle between the souls that had just taken place had nothing to do with it.

Jiang Xuan tried to separate a wisp of his consciousness and carefully approach the feather, wanting to explore its mysteries.

When consciousness touches the surface of the feather, it is blocked by an invisible, gentle yet resilient force, unable to penetrate even a fraction of it.

"This feather...it seems to be a rare treasure. Wei Mingzi's remnant soul was able to survive mostly because of this."

Jiang Xuan made his own guess.

Since it was impossible to crack the code for the time being, he stopped pressuring it.

So they put the matter aside for the time being, leaving it for future research once their cultivation improved or a suitable method was found.

His thoughts drifted to two other things in his mind.

That ancient, colossal gate represents the secret realm leading to heaven.

And the "Heavenly Water Sacred Pearl" from the Water Barbarian Clan, which once helped him break through his realm but is now dormant due to the exhaustion of its power.

Both of these items are of great importance; the Heavenly Secret Realm is key to his rapid improvement in strength.

The Heavenly Water Sacred Pearl is a sacred artifact of the Water Barbarians. If the news of it leaks out, it will surely attract the Water Barbarians' relentless pursuit.

After careful consideration, Jiang Xuan decided to completely conceal the existence of these two things and not mention them to anyone, including Xue Jin.

Suppressing these distracting thoughts, Jiang Xuan's gaze finally fell upon the rusty fragment of the Heaven-Shaking Ancient Seal beside him.

This is the real gain he most anticipated from his journey through the Hundred Battles Secret Realm!
He adjusted his breathing, focused his mind, and separated a wisp of consciousness to slowly probe the fragments of the ancient seal.

The instant consciousness came into contact with the fragment—

"boom!"

Jiang Xuan felt as if his entire consciousness had been sucked into a boundless, ancient, and desolate primordial world!

The sky is high and vast, the earth is heavy and solid, and the wild and untamed atmosphere is overwhelming!

Immediately afterwards, a breathtaking scene unfolded before his "eyes".

An indescribably majestic figure stood between heaven and earth, as if it had cleaved through the chaos!
The figure threw a simple punch at the vast sky!
There are no flashy lights, no complicated moves, only the purest and most extreme burst of power!
With a single punch, the heavens collapsed, stars fell, and the laws of nature wailed!
That earth-shattering, all-destroying will and power were deeply imprinted into the depths of Jiang Xuan's consciousness!
The scene flashed by in an instant, as if it were just a fleeting illusion.

But what followed was a massive influx of information flooding into Jiang Xuan's mind!

Countless profound insights into the application of power, the explosion of qi and blood, and the condensation of intent have converged into a complete inheritance—"The Nine Collapses of Heaven"!
Mountain-splitting collapse, earth-shattering collapse, sea-severing collapse, star-shattering collapse, boundary-breaking collapse...

There are nine moves in total, each one more powerful and domineering than the last!
Each move aims for the ultimate destructive power.

It is said that when one cultivates to a high level, one can truly possess the power to destroy mountains and rivers and shake the stars!
What's even more mysterious is that the nine styles are not isolated; if one can integrate and understand them, they can achieve a comprehensive understanding.

The power of the Nine Collapses can be stacked and evolved, giving rise to endless changes and boundless mysteries!

As his consciousness returned to reality, Jiang Xuan slowly opened his eyes, unable to hide his shock and excitement.

The difficulty and power of "The Nine Collapses of Heaven".

It far exceeded his imagination, and was incomparable to ordinary spirit-level or profound-level cultivation techniques. It might even have touched a higher level!
"What a magnificent Nine Collapses of Heaven! Truly domineering and unparalleled!"

Jiang Xuan was not discouraged by the difficulty of the technique; on the contrary, he was filled with fighting spirit and anticipation.

He was worried that although the star-gathering method was strong.

However, the methods were somewhat limited. Now that they have obtained this unparalleled body-refining and attacking secret technique, it is like adding wings to a tiger!

After returning from the secret realm, he completely resolved Wei Mingzi's hidden dangers and obtained the inheritance of "Shaking Heaven Nine Collapse Dao".

Jiang Xuan's life became unusually regular and fulfilling.

In addition to daily meditation and qi cultivation, he also practiced refining his spiritual energy.

He devoted most of his energy to understanding and practicing this newly acquired, unparalleled martial art. (End of Chapter)
