I bear witness to immortality in the human world.

Wu Ming closed his eyes and quietly began to comprehend the Liezi Technique. He didn't know how much time had passed, but the supreme Dao technique of the Liezi Technique was completely engraved in the depths of his memory, and its Dao patterns were also deeply imprinted in his primordial spirit.

With the six-character mantra as his foundation, mastering the word-completion technique was not difficult for him after he had a sufficient foundation. He mastered it easily.

at last,

Wu Ming slowly opened his eyes.

His gaze swept over the entire Demon Subduing Realm. He clasped his hands together, each forming a hand seal. His left hand formed the "Sequence" seal, and his right hand formed the "Array" seal. He then channeled his spiritual energy into the "Soldier" seal, before letting out a loud shout.

"Divine soldiers arrayed!"

boom!!!
After countless millennia of silence, the Demon-Subduing Realm was once again uttered the cry of "Divine Weapons in Formation!" In an instant, the winds and clouds surged, and the world changed color.

Countless divine weapons of slaughter erupted with a terrifying killing aura, frantically responding to Wu Ming, wanting to obey Wu Ming's commands and fight for him. They trembled violently, and then, following the guidance of the Dao, revealed their sharpness.

First, there were the nine high-grade spiritual treasure-level killing swords wielded by Wu Ming. They soared into the sky, perfectly controlled by Wu Ming, as if they were his own arms. Their core was composed of the array and soldier techniques.

Then,

Each superior-grade killing sword carries nine mid-grade killing spirit treasures, and each mid-grade killing spirit treasure carries nine inferior-grade killing spirit treasures. This continues until millions of killing weapons converge into a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​blades. The blood-red light illuminates the entire Demon Subduing Realm, like a crimson sun!
"Amazing...amazing..."

As Wu Ming watched this scene and felt the power he was in control, he couldn't help but feel a little shocked.

Centered around nine top-grade killing treasures, arranged in a nine-nine formation, ultimately returning to one, extending to form a million-strong mountain of blades and a sea of ​​swords. This overwhelming killing formation is several times more powerful than his previous Nine Swords Killing Formation!

Shocked, Wu Ming finally truly understood the power of the Demon Subduing Diagram, this supreme treasure. It was no less powerful than the Eye of Thunder, and even more powerful than the Eye of Thunder. However, before mastering the Word Seal Technique, he could not touch the true power of this diagram. But now, he was finally able to see this supreme power!

Given time, once he reaches the immortal level, he might be able to use this Demon Subduing Diagram as the core array, and the four supreme treasures, including the Demon Suppressing Plate, as the four symbols, to command the billions of killing soldiers within the Demon Subduing Diagram and become invincible.

After tentatively manipulating the million-strong sea of ​​swords and blades for a while, Wu Ming quickly calmed his mind, drove the sea of ​​swords and blades back to the ground, and then his figure flickered as he once again disappeared into the central area of ​​the Demon-Subduing Diagram.

it's here,
He refined each of the nine top-grade spiritual treasure-level flying swords he had previously selected, one by one.

After finally mastering all nine top-grade spiritual treasure flying swords, he once again rode the escape light straight into the sky, and then with a wave of his arm, he deployed a divine weapon array with the nine top-grade spiritual treasures as the core.

Rumble!!

This time, he unleashed his full power to see where his limits were. In an instant, a number of divine weapons far exceeding those before soared into the sky, transforming into a boundless sea of ​​divine weapons.

He mobilized tens of millions of killing weapons, which shot straight into the sky, blotting out the sun, like a blood-red dust storm.

Although the tens of millions of killing weapons are still less than one ten-thousandth of the number of killing weapons accumulated in the Demon Realm, such a number of killing weapons, when condensed and arrayed, with their murderous aura and killing intent gathered together, are already extremely terrifying.

For Wu Ming now, possessing nine top-grade spiritual treasure-level killing weapons alone is enough to suppress a sixth-tribulation Dao Saint and rival a seventh-tribulation Dao Saint. If he were to gather tens of millions of killing weapons to form a sea of ​​swords, his power would increase several times over. Even an eighth-tribulation Dao Saint would likely find it difficult to escape once trapped inside!

An Eight Tribulation Dao Saint is already a true peak Dao Saint. To advance further and break through to the Ninth Tribulation is to achieve immortality.

"Indeed, its power is no less than that of the Eye of Thunder..."

Wu Ming floated above the sky, feeling the tens of millions of divine weapons of slaughter. Driven and mobilized by his thoughts, they were like a river formed by swords, converging and surging, and his emotions rose and fell accordingly.

Clearly, whether it's the Eye of Thunder or the Divine Weapon Formation, both of these methods, once used by him now, are enough to sweep away the Nine Blood Nine Refinements and make him invincible among Dao Saints and Martial Saints!
Even a peak Dao Saint would find it difficult to match, let alone those below the Seventh Tribulation; they could be easily suppressed and killed.

but,

These two methods are his ultimate trump cards, and he cannot use them lightly unless absolutely necessary. After all, they are the power of supreme treasures, and once activated, they are likely to attract the attention of immortal beings.

Although he wields these two supreme treasures, which is enough to overwhelm all Dao Saints, he is still far from true immortality and is currently far from being able to close that gap.

"Once I've mastered the third step of the law..."

Wu Ming clenched his fist.

Whether it's the Law of Thunder or the Law of Slaughter, once he reaches the third step in either one, he can use that as a foundation to further master the power of the Eye of Thunder or the Demon-Subduing Diagram, resulting in a qualitative leap.

Only through such a transformative leap in power can one cross the almost bottomless chasm between Dao Saint and Immortal, allowing him to have the opportunity to touch upon the immense power of the Immortal level before achieving immortality.

Swish.

Wu Ming quickly collected his thoughts, waved his right hand, and the dazzling sword light and shadows in the sky quickly dispersed, returning to their original positions.

Although the goal is clear, understanding the third step of either the Thunder Law or the Slaughter Law will not be something that can be done in a short time; it requires further accumulation.

Therefore, before that, he still needs to follow the steps to perfect the foundation required for the Nine Refinements Dao Saint. "Next is the Primordial Dharma Body."

Wu Ming muttered to himself.

With a thought, he left the Demon-Subduing Diagram and returned to the Holy Land.

After a long ten years, he finally emerged from seclusion for the first time and looked down over the entire Qingming Peak. Although the mountain had not changed, his realm and state of mind were different, and his senses were completely different when he looked down at the mountain again.

Wu Ming originally wanted to greet the Peak Master of Qingming Peak, but the Peak Master of Qingming Peak did not seem to be in the peak. After thinking for a moment, he did not linger and began to act according to his original plan.

Nine years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Over the course of nine years, he traveled between holy lands and the abyss, plundering a great deal of resources and exchanging them for necessities for cultivating his Dharma body. Afterward, he returned to his cave and began his seclusion once again.

The cultivation of the Dharma body is a basic requirement for Dao Saints, and can be considered a compulsory course.

Basically, all Dao cultivators, after achieving the Dao Saint level, will quickly stabilize their realm within a few decades and complete the cultivation of their Dharma Body, thus truly entering the realm of Dao Saint powerhouses.

Therefore, the cultivation of the Dharma Body is not difficult. For Wu Ming, the only difficulty is that he needs to use the Fighting Word Technique as the core, integrate multiple Dharma Forms to form the Primordial Dharma Form, and finally condense the Primordial Dharma Body.

Constructing the Hunyuan Dharma Image is quite difficult.

Since there was no experience to refer to, Wu Ming could only explore on his own, constantly trying and failing. After countless attempts, and after a full seventeen years, he finally completed the Hunyuan Dharma Form!

Afterwards,

In just two years, he condensed the Primordial Dharma Body!

"It's done."

Deep within the cave, Wu Ming slowly opened his eyes, his gaze calm and undisturbed.

He took a moment to assess his current state and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

The primordial spirit condenses into a Dharma body, which not only allows various spells to be cast at a faster speed, but also amplifies the power of various spells. It is equivalent to integrating the effects of the Dharma body into oneself, making the Dharma body form one's normal state.

The Primordial Dharma Form, built around the core of the Fighting Technique, condenses into the Supreme Primordial Dharma Body. This power is naturally incredibly strong, greatly amplifying his primordial spirit. With every gesture, he can unleash the power of water, fire, wind, and thunder.

With the Primordial Body, Wu Ming's strength naturally improved even further.

"Even without relying on the Eye of Thunder and the Demon-Subduing Diagram, I should be able to rival a Seventh Tribulation Dao Saint now."

"Next is the general outline of the Divine Firmament Thunder Technique."

Wu Ming slowly closed his eyes, and the Divine Firmament General Outline he had obtained from the Thunder Emperor Palace came to mind.

Simultaneously,

The scenes he witnessed in the Thunder Prison Abyss, the changing patterns of the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning, flashed before his eyes, stirring up a series of flashes of inspiration in his mind.

Before he could break through to the third step of the Thunder and Slaughter Laws, the solid foundation he needed took much longer than Wu Ming had anticipated.

Refining nine top-grade spiritual treasures led to the discovery of the Liezi Mantra. It took some time to cultivate and master it. Afterwards, cultivating the Hunyuan Dharma Body required some resources, and the cultivation process required self-exploration, which also took nearly thirty years.

At last,
The general principles of cultivating the Divine Firmament Thunder Technique took longer than the previous two, exceeding Wu Ming's expectations.

He secluded himself in his cave for twenty years, and then left the cave to go to the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Pillar' secret realm in the holy land. With the body of a Nine Refinement Dao Saint, he went straight to the top of the Nine Heavens Thunder Pillar. There, he used the power of thunder to deduce and cultivate. It took him another twenty-nine years to finally combine the three Divine Firmament Thunder Techniques of Taiqing, Shangqing and Yuqing into one with the general principles!
At the top of the Nine Heavens Thunder Pillar,
In the center of one of the lightning pillars, Wu Ming sat cross-legged. The ferocious lightning that surrounded him became as docile as lambs within three zhang of his body.

"After achieving the Dao Saint status, cultivation truly transcends time."

Wu Ming slowly opened his eyes, his gaze revealing no signs of vicissitude, only a serene stillness like that of an ancient well.

From an ordinary mortal, he completed the Nine Refinements of the Primordial Spirit in less than a hundred years and became a Dao Saint. However, after becoming a Dao Saint, it took him nearly a hundred years just to solidify his foundation and complete the initial part of his cultivation!

For Wu Ming, this period of time was rather long.

But the results are also significant.

Having stabilized his realm and completed all the necessary cultivation for becoming a Dao Saint, his strength has increased significantly compared to when he first broke through. Especially after mastering the Divine Firmament General Principles, he feels that with his current strength, even without relying on the Eye of Thunder and the Demon Subduing Diagram, he can contend with peak Dao Saints who have survived eight tribulations.
