Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 500 The Boundless Sea
Another house.

Jiang sat down on the ground to digest the fish soup she had just eaten.

The flesh of the Boundary Sea Goldfish is a rare and precious ingredient.

Taking one piece is equivalent to taking ten Spirit Stones.

This is a pot of Lingzhu braised fish soup.

Jiang Jian ate more than half of it.

There are six or seven goldfish in total.

at this time.

Jiang Jian's three major acupoints were all filled with spiritual energy vortexes.

The mysterious energy circulates rapidly.

It absorbed these spiritual essences at an extremely fast speed.

"The Divine Platform Realm is still a long way off."

Jiang Jian calmed his mind and focused his inner vision on his divine palace.

Clearly perceived.

There are still two things I need to reach the Divine Platform Realm.

First, it is the accumulation over many years.

Secondly, it was the opportunity to see the altar.

The accumulation of spiritual energy cannot be rushed.

Although three months of arduous cultivation at the True Lord's Temple is equivalent to ten years outside.

but.

Still not enough to reach the edge of the Divine Platform Realm.

These three months.

My biggest improvement was that I reviewed all my methods.

Under the earnest guidance of the Mirror Master.

Whether it's the way to utilize profound energy or the means to perform supernatural powers and techniques.

I have made great progress in my own area!
Compared to three months ago.

The same technique was used.

Its power is increased by at least 50%!

In addition, this has been going on for the past three months.

The accumulation of spiritual energy has not lagged behind.

At this moment, the spiritual energy of the divine palace was boiling like the sea.

Finally, it can be called a "sacred temple built up over many years".

Although Jiang Jian's bone age is only twenty years old.

The training period was only three years.

However, the spiritual essence of its divine palace is comparable to that of a genius in the divine palace realm who has cultivated diligently for a hundred years!
just.

There is an upper limit to the speed at which spiritual energy can be accumulated.

When living beings cultivate.

Even if there are plenty of spiritual materials and sufficient resources.

The external energy and spiritual energy are also abundant.

but.

The rate at which its spiritual essence increases will not continue indefinitely.

Once it reaches a certain level, it will stabilize.

No matter how many resources are invested or how excellent the cultivation conditions are created, the cultivation speed of living beings will not change.

This is the constraint of the rules of the cosmos, and also the upper limit that the acupoints of living beings can bear.

If there were no such upper limit.

The cultivation of the third realm will not be so difficult.

Jiang Jian noticed it.

During these three months at the Grand Tutor's mansion, I've come close to reaching the limit of my cultivation!

In other words.

My current cultivation speed is already the limit that my current cultivation level can support!

At this moment.

Even if I were to move to Neptune, my cultivation speed would not increase significantly.

just.

Jiang Jian understood even more clearly.

His foundation was so solid.

Whether it's surpassing the upper limit of the Divine Realm or breaking through the spiritual limit of the Spring of Life Realm, both have greatly increased the difficulty of cultivating the third realm.

Theoretically, the maximum capacity of his own divine palace's spiritual essence had already reached an unbelievable and terrifying level!
Under normal circumstances.

It would take at least a hundred years to fill it!

Even now, he could use his fastest cultivation speed, stay in the Grand Tutor's mansion and cultivate day and night with a huge supply of resources.

It takes nearly three years to cultivate to a level close to the Divine Platform Realm!
not to mention.

Reaching the Divine Platform Realm is not something that can be easily achieved simply by accumulating spiritual energy.

To see the altar, one needs a "trigger".

for example.

The age-weaver witch.

His spiritual cultivation had already reached the limit of the Divine Palace.

However, she remained stuck for a long time and could not see the altar because she lacked the "opportunity".

At the border of the Demon Kingdom's desolate territory, during her battle with Jiang Jian, the Weaving Witch sensed this "opportunity".

therefore.

She spared no expense in offering a large amount of intelligence in exchange for Jiang Jian becoming her combat sparring partner.

The sole purpose is to seize that sliver of an "opportunity" and get closer to the Divine Platform Realm.

No one can resist the allure of the altar.

Even looking at the entire solar system.

Reaching the Divine Platform Realm is already considered a sign of strength.

Some of these unparalleled altars have already made a name for themselves in the solar system, becoming known to other planets.

Apart from the True Monarch of the Spirit Platform Realm.

The Divine Platform Realm is the rightful ruling class on any planet.

The Divine Palace Realm, on the other hand, is an appendage of the ruling class.

In essence, they are still the ruled class.

The difference between the two is like heaven and earth.

"Operation Mercury".

"The progress has reached 31%."

Jiang Jian opened his identity certificate while cultivating.

As usual, I handled the daily affairs of the Jiuchang Star Tower.

this time.

Jiang Jianzai took a break from his cultivation.

They did not leave all of Jiu Chang's affairs to Nie Zheng.

Instead, they performed their combat duties very well.

Team members would promptly report any problems that arose during the infiltration process.

All questions about Star Array.

Jiang saw that none of them were missing and handled everything personally, leaving nothing out.

By now.

Jiang Jian had already guessed what the Mercury operation plan was.

Saturn is not Earth's enemy.

in other words.

Earth's enemy is not the entire planet Saturn.

It is a small part of Saturn.

The first to bear the brunt.

That is the first star lord of Saturn, the White Frost Kingdom.

This planet governs a nation that occupies Saturn's rings, and its overall strength is unfathomable.

Followed by.

These are the Heavenly Law Sword Pavilion and the Kingdom of No Form.

These three star lord-level forces were the instigators of external expansion.

On Saturn, other planetary lord-level forces did not participate.

Earth, knowing this, formulated the "Operation Mercury".

Once the plan succeeds.

On Mercury, there are nine towering star towers.

It will be completely damaged and unusable immediately!
even.

On Earth, the nine star towers can also severely damage the three major star-dominated branches entrenched on Mercury!
The overall strength of Earth, and the number of True Monarchs at the Spirit Platform Realm, is roughly equivalent to that of a Wuxiang Kingdom.

It is stronger than the Heavenly Law Sword Pavilion.

It is somewhat weaker than the White Frost Kingdom.

but.

These three star-lord forces will not unite as one.

This is one of the drawbacks of the Saturnian system.

The core purpose of every Star Lord-level power is to serve the highest-ranking True Lord.

Once the Star Lords and True Lords cannot reach a consensus.

Even if Saturn is powerful, it would be difficult for it to truly launch extraterrestrial warfare.

There's another point that makes the Star Lords and True Monarchs of the three major powers quite wary.

On Earth, there is a black-clad assassin who possesses the divine power of "annihilation by calamity".

If he were to disregard everything and exert all his strength, he might die.

Yet, before he dies, he can take one or two True Monarchs of the Spirit Platform Realm with him.

The celestial lords of Saturn hold exalted positions, and no one is willing to be their scapegoat.

This is one of the reasons why Earth has not been subjected to a full-scale invasion to this day.

In recent years.

The first lord of Saturn, the White Frost Kingdom, is researching ways to deal with "annihilation by catastrophe".

Previously, the Demon Lord Baxia had made several moves to test Earth.

this means.

The White Frost Kingdom's targeted plan may have made a breakthrough.

This made him eager to try it out.

Once the White Frost Kingdom successfully takes control of Earth and obtains its planetary core.

Its own power will immediately surge!

The number of True Monarchs at the Spirit Platform Realm will also begin to surge!
By the time.

Using Earth and Saturn's rings, they joined forces to launch a counterattack against Saturn's myriad realms.

It's not impossible for them to rule the entire planet Saturn!
just.

Wuxiang Kingdom, Tianlu Sword Pavilion.

Although cooperating with the White Frost Kingdom.

Behind the scenes, however, they each had their own plans.

after all.

These two planetary-level nations are based on Saturn's home planet.

The land of white frost lies on the rings of Saturn.

In this situation.

Any plans concerning extraterrestrial life.

It's all been delayed again and again, which is very inefficient.

At first.

The Demon Lord Baxia made his move on Mercury, taking the opportunity to test Neptune's reaction.

At first glance, it looks very sharp and domineering.

In fact, it took more than a dozen meetings.

Ultimately, this matter was decided to be implemented.

"We have news about Jiang Zhao."

Suddenly, a dialog box popped up on the entire screen.

Jiang Jian's gaze sharpened. He closed the Mercury Project and opened Nie Zheng's chat window.

This is a screenshot of Nie Zheng's chat history with Jiang Zhao, which she forwarded to her.

A few minutes later.

Jiang Jian swiped away from the holographic screen, feeling slightly relieved.

Jiang Zhao emerged from Wangxiangtai.

This is undoubtedly good news.

Not only that.

Among the materials brought by Jiang Zhao were some unknown secrets.

About the Illusionary Realm, about the Ancient Beast of Listening.

There was also the tragic death of the guide.

Besides.

Most importantly, the emergence of the Jiang family star system.

Jiang Ming, the patrolling divine attendant of the white dwarf star in the ninth star system of the Jiang clan. However...

The exposure of her sister's bloodline.

Jiang Jianxin had already anticipated this.

They didn't seem too surprised.

Three months at the Grand Tutor's mansion.

Taking advantage of the convenient resource supply, Jiang Jian had already prepared most of the materials needed to upgrade the dimensional space.

One more H-type chip is needed to refine it again.

just.

The H-type chip represents advanced technology transmitted from the Orion Nebula to the solar system.

Jiang Jianzeng inquired about this matter with the Mirror Master Zhenjun.

The Mirror Master Zhenjun explained it very clearly.

Only Neptune possesses this technology.

but.

If it were Jiang Jian, it would truly be necessary.

He could try to find a solution for Jiang Jian.

because.

The Mirror Master True Lord had an encounter with the descendant of the gods who guarded the Seventh Sea.

In the solar system.

The Seventh Sea governs Saturn.

Although Neptune is self-enclosed, the nine seas scattered throughout the solar system also have closed entrances.

but.

As a True Lord of the Spirit Platform Realm.

There are always some privileges that ordinary people do not have.

for example.

The King of the Wrongfully Dead in the Earthly Realm is qualified to communicate directly with the Goddess in Plain Clothes who guards the Fourth Sea.

"Lord Su."

There was a knock on the door outside the house.

Jiang Jian calmed himself down, swiped away the holographic screen, and said in a deep voice, "Please come in."

This is the Purple Mansion Dojo in the world within the mirror.

Apart from myself and the True Lord.

Only the True Lord's close attendants are qualified to enter.

Squeak.

The door was pushed open.

The attendant stood at the door, his eyelids lowered, and said, "Lord Su, there is a new appointment from the General Affairs Office."

"Tomorrow morning, you will represent the Grand Tutor's Mansion and, together with other people from the Demon Kingdom, accompany Director Liu Wang of the Internal Affairs Department to Wuxiang Island in the depths of the Boundary Sea to listen to the rules of the Great Competition for the Star Lord's Heavenly Position."

He raised his hands and handed over a letter.

"it is good."

Jiang Jian stood up and carefully accepted the letter.

This letter looks ordinary.

Once in my hands, it weighed more than a thousand pounds.

The letter was stamped with the official seal of the Consulate General for Internal Affairs.

Inside, the names of forty government offices were listed.

Behind each government office was a sign indicating the presence of an accompanying person.

The Grand Tutor's Mansion, ranked fourth.

The name marked after it is "素".

Jiang Jian glanced at it and raised an eyebrow slightly.

Behind the other government offices, a familiar name came into view.

Zhenling Division, Zhao Yang.

Zhao Yang is a member of the Zhang family.

Although he was appointed to the Zhenling Division, he was not a member of the government's inner circle.

He can be on the list.

This surprised Jiang Jian somewhat.

But then.

Jiang Jian quickly realized the key to the matter.

Going to Wuxiang Island is not a particularly important matter.

Ultimately, it was just a chance to broaden one's horizons.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, most government offices would almost certainly give this opportunity to newly elected voters.

Zhao Yang has a level 7 talent.

It's not surprising that he got a spot to go out with the Zhang family's support.

original.

Jiang Jian thought that Gao Qi was representing the Zhenling Division when he went out.

Now it seems.

Level 7 talents will indeed receive more attention.

At this time.

After a long period of silence, several messages began to appear in the group chat.

Qi Hua: "Congratulations to you two on getting to visit Wuxiang Island and broaden your horizons."

Zhao Yang: "You're not on the list? Is the competition for the Northern Textile Bureau really that fierce?"

Qi Hua: "Of course, there are several of my direct voters ahead of me in the queue, so it's not even my turn."

Zhao Yang: "Actually, I was lucky. I heard that the newly promoted loyal voters of the Zhenling Division were all temporarily unable to get away, so the spot fell to me."

Then, Zhao Yang mentioned Jiang Jian: "Su, we're going to meet again."

"I heard that you went to Xisha Road to become the governor some time ago, and you also solved several major cases in succession, which is widely known in our Zhenling Division."

Jiang Jian: "Yes."

Zhao Yang sent a hammer emoji: "You may not know, but the deputy director of the Zhenling Division has mentioned you in several meetings, wishing he could poach you from the Grand Tutor's Mansion."

Jiang Jian: "After returning to the Demon Kingdom's capital, some people did approach me and asked me to take a position in the Spirit Suppression Division, but I refused them all."

Qi Hua sent an envious emoji: "I heard that you have been cultivating with the Grand Tutor and almost never leave the mansion. Is that true?"

Jiang Jian: "The reward the Grand Tutor gave me for solving the case was indeed a year of training by his side."

As soon as these words came out.

Qi Hua and Zhao Yang both exclaimed in amazement and envy.

To follow a True Monarch of the Spirit Platform Realm in cultivation is an immense opportunity.

No matter how good the spiritual resources are, they cannot compare to the True Lord's patient guidance.

"Su, shall we set off together tomorrow morning?"

After admiring him, Zhao Yang extended an invitation.

Jiang Jianying replied, "Alright, let's meet at the gate of the General Affairs Office on the ninth floor of the King's Tower."

Zhao Yang: "No problem."

Turn off identity verification.

Jiang Jian raised the sleeve of his black robe, picked up a Spirit-Clearing Grass from beside him, and held it in his hand.

This is an expensive and rare spiritual plant.

When used by living beings, it can accelerate the circulation of profound energy and increase the efficiency of spiritual accumulation.

soon.

Jiang saw the Xuan Qi surging around him, and transparent ripples appeared, indicating that he had entered a state of focused cultivation.

Every minute spent at the Purple Mansion Dojo is precious.

It has been three months since we entered the demon kingdom.

Jiang saw it with his own eyes.

Even on Saturn, not every living being can maintain constant cultivation.

Even the most gifted geniuses spend a significant portion of their time enjoying external things or engaging in pointless social interactions.

after all.

Cultivation is very tedious.

Living beings possess seven emotions and six desires.

Normally.

In addition to spiritual practice, one also needs to balance work and rest, and needs to relax and enjoy life.

therefore.

Many newly elected voters, now in high positions, have become lost in the allure of power and lust.

The time actually used for cultivation only occupies a very small portion.

This is also one of the reasons why the gap between those in the Divine Palace Realm is gradually widening.

Only a few beings who can endure loneliness and monotony, who can forcefully overcome their inner desires and not be easily disturbed by external things, can truly enter a state of spiritual practice.

in this regard.

Jiang Jian did it to the extreme.

For him, cultivation was as natural as breathing.

Even when he is out, he will not waste any spare moment that can be used for cultivation.

This is also why the Mirror Master values ​​Jiang Jian so much.

As a second level of life.

The Mirror Master is very clear about this.

Only with such a mindset of spiritual practice can one be qualified and have the opportunity to transcend to a higher level of life.

At first.

When the Mirror Master was young, he believed he had cultivated diligently.

I spend the vast majority of my time practicing spiritual cultivation.

but.

Compared to Jiang Jian, he is still a bit inferior.

"correct."

"My sister's Divine Palace Realm will have to wait a little longer."

Suddenly, Jiang Jian remembered something, opened her identity card, and sent a message to Nie Zheng.

The message was for Nie Zheng to tell Jiang Zhao not to rush to break through the Divine Illumination Barrier, but to accumulate resources for as long as possible.

after all.

After breaking through to the Divine Palace Realm.

The possibility of my sister's bloodline being exposed has greatly increased!
Although the Jiang Clan's Ninth Star System has already become aware of this and has begun to locate the coordinates of the solar system.

but.

Jiang Jian understood even better.

The Jiang clan's galaxy is too vast, and its procedures are lengthy.

The later we are exposed, the safer I and my sister will be.

Drag it to the dimensional space and complete the upgrade.

I also have some basic hiding methods here.

"One year."

Jiang Jian put down his identity bracelet, his expression solemn.

he realized.

Staying on Saturn for three years is not feasible.

In at most a year, I will return to Mercury, or even back to Earth!
because.

My current physical body was conceived and created on Earth.

The planetary aura is indelible.

If you want to break through to the Divine Platform, the best option is to return to Earth!
Besides.

There is another method.

Like a few Mercury prodigies, they washed away their original planetary aura by joining Saturn.

In this way, even without returning to Earth, one can still qualify for the Breakthrough God Platform.

only.

This method can cause some damage to the body's very essence.

Jiang Jian, on the other hand, has been cultivating ever since.

His foundation in cultivation is practically perfect.

He simply couldn't accept that his own body had suffered such damage.

therefore.

In Jiang Jian's cultivation plan.

Before reaching the Divine Platform of Breakthrough, we must return to Earth.

On the planet that gave birth to my body and flesh, I saw the altar.

Only in this way can one achieve a perfect and flawless divine altar.

Other than that.

And one more thing.

The gloom in Jiang Jian's heart never dissipated.

My younger sister, Jiang Zhao, has returned safely from Wangxiangtai.

but.

That sense of deadly crisis, however, did not disappear.

On the contrary, they have appeared even more frequently in recent days!
