Immortality starts from the liver proficiency

Chapter 503 Ten Years

With precise control over his attribute panel and the inhuman will honed through countless attribute point adjustments, Xu Yunfan forcibly guided the raging power of thunder and fire to operate according to the path of the "Divine Firmament Nine Heavens Profound Sky Undying True Scripture".

The metal of the stars forms his bones and veins, the thunder and fire of the nine heavens forms his fuel, and the clouds of the eight scenic spots form his furnace for blending. The three elements form a profound balance and cycle within his body.

After an unknown amount of time, when the last glimmer of light from the lightning array plate at the top of the cave went out, the raging lightning power finally subsided.

The purple lightning patterns around Xu Yunfan slowly receded, and a layer of pale golden light flowed across his skin before disappearing completely. He looked even more refined and reserved than before, with only a sharp, piercing light occasionally flashing in the depths of his slowly opening eyes.

He exhaled a breath of stale air, which carried a faint crackling of electricity, causing the air in front of him to vibrate and distort slightly.

He glanced at the information prompts on his screen.

'You've mastered the basics of the Divine Firmament Nine Heavens Profound Vault Immortal True Scripture.'

"I've finally gotten the hang of it; it's practically inhuman."

Even with his calm demeanor, Xu Yunfan couldn't help but feel a slight ripple in his heart.

The difficulty of entering this true scripture far surpasses that of the "Mysterious Capital Eight Scenes Refining Heaven and Creating Cloud Book". If it weren't for the "Approaching" technique and the attribute panel, he would never have been able to succeed.

I have no idea how Shenxiao Jiuchen Zhenjun cultivated to such a level; it was simply too abnormal.

In comparison, it seems that the Pure Yang Patriarch is even more monstrous, as he was able to annihilate Shenxiao Jiuchen Zhenjun with just three sword strikes.

He calmed down and decided that now that he had mastered the basics, the next step was to hone his skills and optimize his attribute panel to increase his proficiency.

Xu Yunfan calmed down completely, hiding his main body in this cave, taking the "Divine Firmament Nine Heavens Profound Sky Undying True Scripture" as his main cultivation method, supplementing it with the Myriad Chariots Sword Technique to comprehend sword intent, while a part of his mind was separated to continuously monitor the movements of his clone in the Eastern Wilderness.

Time flies like an arrow; nearly ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the cave at Hanya Pass.

Xu Yunfan sat cross-legged, his aura deep and unfathomable.

Beneath the skin, nine layers of lightning flashed and flickered, each flash seemingly causing a slight tremor in the surrounding space.

His bones were like jade, gleaming with a restrained purple-gold luster. Between his internal organs, it seemed as if a subtle pool of thunder was slowly rotating, and his blood flowed, containing star-like points of scorching heat.

It was the outward manifestation of the "Divine Firmament Nine Heavens Profound Vault Imperishable True Scripture" when one had cultivated it to its greatest extent and achieved a level of mastery that was comparable to the creation of the universe.

After ten years of arduous cultivation, the accumulation of countless resources within the Cold Crow Pass, and the incredible optimization of his attribute panel, he finally brought this extremely difficult cultivation technique to its peak. The terrifying strength of his physical body far surpasses that of ordinary late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.

His cultivation level has naturally reached the peak of the mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

All that's missing is to gather Qi, cultivate the Inner Realm, and then enter the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

"The Great Completion Realm. The peak of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage means that the True Scripture has been perfected, thus entering the late-Foundation Establishment stage, and finally reaching the ultimate state, achieving the Great True Person Realm."

Xu Yunfan murmured to himself, "The foundation is in place. The next step is to gradually condense my supernatural powers and establish the rituals in order to reach the Nine Heavens of the Divine Firmament."

This progress would have been astonishing even for the legendary Shenxiao Jiuchen Zhenjun back then.

But for him, this was just the beginning.

As for Hanya Pass, which Xu Yunfan guards, it is just a place to collect resources.

Over the decades, the people of Hanya Pass had come to understand the temperament of this newly appointed garrison commander quite well.

He remained secluded in his cave dwelling within the garrison headquarters year-round, almost completely detached from worldly affairs within the pass, appearing entirely aloof. The gates of the garrison headquarters were always tightly closed, and apart from necessary business transactions and resource transfers, few could disturb his secluded cultivation.

This almost "laissez-faire" approach to governance may initially inspire contempt or wishful thinking in people's minds.

However, this apparent laxity caused by negligence was suddenly shattered when a Foundation Establishment True Person from the Wancheng Sword Sect arrived at Hanya Pass, causing a great shock to all those who were secretly watching or were eager to make a move.

That Sword Sect Master, bearing the illustrious identity of a direct descendant of the sect, arrived with an aggressive aura, his intentions unclear.

Whether it was to hold someone accountable or to test the true strength and capabilities of the new garrison commander, it was all part of the effort.

When he arrived on his sword, the sword light was sharp and its edge was aimed directly at the core area of ​​the garrison. His attitude was arrogant and he disregarded the rules and regulations of the pass. He obviously did not take the reclusive garrison commander seriously.

Xu Yunfan guessed that it was probably because he had been sent out of the Wancheng Sword Sect by the Pure Yang Ancestor that some of the other True Monarch forces in the Sword Sect were dissatisfied. Since it was not easy for True Monarchs to take action, it would be convenient for Foundation Establishment True Persons.

Among those of the same cultivation level, who can defeat a sword cultivator in a one-on-one fight?

However, at the very moment that sword cultivator, a Foundation Establishment True Person, pointed his sword, a sudden change occurred.

The long-silent sky above Hanya Pass suddenly darkened, not because night had fallen, but because a vast, inky thundercloud had instantly condensed and formed, thick and heavy, covering the entire pass with the force of lead and iron, seemingly about to collapse.

Deep within the clouds, rumbling thunder echoed, and thick, purple-white lightning bolts darted wildly through the dark clouds, emanating a destructive aura that made even Foundation Establishment cultivators' hearts pound and their scalps tingle.

The soaring aura of the Foundation Establishment True Person of the Wancheng Sword Sect was instantly suppressed by the overwhelming heavenly might, and the sharp sword light suddenly dimmed and subsided under the lock of the sky-filling lightning tribulation.

He looked up in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief and disbelief.

At the core of the thick black cloud, countless dazzling divine lightning bolts, like an ancient thunder dragon awakening, locked onto him, poised to strike.

"boom!"

"Crack!!"

The Sword Sect Master wasn't given much time to react, and Xu Yunfan didn't even show up.

The next moment, hundreds and thousands of divine thunderbolts roared angrily, transforming into violent pillars of light that tore through the sky, launching a brutal and precise indiscriminate bombardment on the sword cultivator.

It wasn't just one or two, but hundreds or even thousands of purple and white lightning dragons, imbued with a destructive will, bombarding everything in their path.

The lightning flashed brightly, and the roar echoed across the fields.

Regardless of their cultivation level, all the cultivators within the pass were terrified by this earth-shattering and terrifying scene, their faces turning pale and their voices falling silent.

The entire earth veins of Hanya Pass trembled slightly under the violent power of the thunder.

Even though the Foundation Establishment True Person of the Wancheng Sword Sect had a profound foundation and sharp sword skills, he was still overwhelmed by the dense, waterfall-like, and powerful Divine Firmament Thunder. His protective treasures flickered rapidly and shattered inch by inch, and his flying sword wailed. In the end, he could only rely on the precious life-saving items bestowed by the sect to withstand the attack.

With a series of fierce roars amidst the sea of ​​lightning, it disregarded its dignity and transformed into a dim sword light, frantically breaking through the lightning barrier like a stray dog, and fleeing the Cold Crow Pass area at top speed without looking back.

When his figure disappeared into the horizon, his robes were charred black and his breathing was disordered, clearly indicating that he had suffered a considerable loss.

This thunderous feast came quickly and went quickly.

The thick thunderclouds, like divine punishment, slowly dispersed after repelling the uninvited guests, as if they had never existed.
