Starting as a Grandmaster, all of my cultivation techniques are at max level.

After returning to the Great Xia Imperial Palace, Xia Jin did not meet with anyone, but went directly back to the Jin Palace.

Sitting cross-legged on the cold jade bed, Xia Jin took a full ten breaths to calm her excited emotions.

This mission took the longest, but the rewards were also the most generous.

Putting aside the martial arts technique "Seven Forms of Silence" that was awarded this time, the mere two hundred and eighty years of cultivation alone was enough to shock him.

According to Xia Jin's speculation, this would definitely be enough for her to jump directly from the fourth level of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm to the Divine Travel Realm!

At that time, I will have no need to fear anyone in the entire Eastern Region!

After taking a deep breath, Xia Jin silently said in her mind, "System, retrieve the rewards for this mission."

[Command confirmed. Congratulations, host, for retrieving the mission reward: Seven Forms of Silence (Beginner Level), 280 years of cultivation.]

"System, use fifty years of cultivation to deduce the Seven Forms of the Shocking Silence!" Xia Jin issued the command without hesitation.

[Command confirmed. Consuming fifty years of cultivation, deducing the Seven Forms of the Shocking Silence...]

"In the first year, you obtained the introductory chapter of the Seven Forms of Terrifying Silence. The opening outline alone shook your mind and spirit: [The meaning of annihilation, seven layers of waves; the blade strikes with astonishment, the flesh turns to dust]. You began to circulate your true energy according to the mental method, simulating the sword intent of the Seven Forms of Terrifying Silence."

"In your twentieth year, you continuously attempted to layer the sword intent of the first three forms of the Seven Forms of Silence, discovering that with each additional layer, the domineering power and strength of the sword amplified exponentially! However, the burden on your physical body was also terrifying. After countless failures, you finally succeeded in initially fusing the sword intent of the first three forms, unleashing the first triple-layered sword energy. At this point, the Seven Forms of Silence reached the minor mastery stage!"

"In your thirtieth year, you successfully integrated the first five sword techniques, unleashing a strike with five layers of sword intent superimposed. At this point, the Seven Forms of Startling Silence have reached their pinnacle."

"In your fiftieth year, you fused all the insights you had accumulated before into one, constantly simulating the unified sword technique of the Seven Forms. Finally, you unleashed the flawless Seven Layers of Sword Intent! The Seven Forms of Startling Silence, now at its ultimate perfection!"

Xia Jin suddenly opened her eyes, and seven layers of sword shadows seemed to flash and disappear in the depths of her eyes.

Before he could make any move, he simply looked up at the moonlight outside the palace, and a dark cloud drifting below suddenly split in two before slowly dissipating.

Xia Jin let out a long breath, a hint of shock flashing in her eyes.

"It's simply unimaginable... how did the person who created the 'Seven Forms of Silence' come up with it!" Xia Jin swallowed hard.

"To think they could so exquisitely layer their sword intent, multiplying its power exponentially! If the third strike of the Avici Path Three Swords was aimed at the opponent's consciousness, then this 'Seven Forms of Terrifying Silence' is purely designed to destroy the opponent's physical body!"

He had a vague idea in his mind: "If I could fully unleash the perfected Seven Forms of Silence, with my current cultivation at the fourth level of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm, and while in the state of 'Crossing the Demonic Heart'... I might even have a chance to seriously injure Xiao Fubai, the sect leader of the Wusheng Sect!"

Slowly calming her excited emotions, Xia Jin composed herself.

"System, use the remaining 230 years of cultivation to deduce the Nine Revolutions Creation Scripture!" Xia Jin silently chanted in her heart.

[Command confirmed. Consuming 230 years of cultivation, deducing the "Nine Revolutions Creation Scripture"...]

"In the first year, you will begin to continuously temper your entire skeletal system. The skull is the head of the six yang energies and is also the part you focus on cultivating."

"In the twentieth year, the skull reconstruction is complete. You have successfully broken through the ninth level of the third revolution of the Nine Revolutions Creation Scripture, and your martial arts cultivation has broken through from the fourth level of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm to the fifth level of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm."

"In your fiftieth year, you successfully opened the door to the fourth stage of the Nine Revolutions Creation Scripture, 'Rebirth,' and stepped into the first level of the fourth stage! Your martial arts cultivation soared accordingly, breaking through one after another, climbing from the fifth level of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm all the way to the eighth level of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm!"

"In the first hundred years, you have made steady progress and successfully broken through the second level of the fourth revolution of the Nine Revolutions Creation Scripture, and your martial arts cultivation has broken through from the eighth level of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm to the ninth level of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm."

"In the 230th year, you completed the 'rebirth' of all your bones and began the initial 'bone replacement.' Finally, you successfully broke through the fifth level of the fourth revolution of the 'Nine Revolutions Creation Scripture'! You successfully entered the Divine Ascension Realm, which countless martial artists dream of! You have stepped into the first level of the Divine Ascension Realm!"

[Deduction complete! Congratulations, host, on your simultaneous upgrade!]

The moment the system notification sounded, Xia Jin, who was sitting cross-legged on the cold jade bed, suddenly unleashed her aura! An aura far surpassing her previous power surged into the sky.

Xia Jin slowly opened her eyes, her gaze filled with a divine light, as if a river of stars were flowing within them.

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, a tiny golden figure, identical to himself, slowly coalesced and emerged.

This is the mark of the Divine Travel Realm: the divine sense is concentrated, and one can begin to travel out of the body!

Xia Jin glanced at her system panel.

[Host: Xia Jin]

[Realm: First Level of Divine Travel Realm]

Current reward: None

"Divine Travel Realm, First Level... Perfected 'Seven Forms of Startling Silence'..." Xia Jin smiled slightly. "Dayuan, Fenglin... no, it should be the entire Eastern Region, it's time for them all to belong to Great Xia!"

He did not rest, but continued to familiarize himself with the Divine Realm until dawn before he stopped.

"Too powerful... Is this the Divine Travel Realm?" A glint flashed in Xia Jin's eyes.

After a night of getting acquainted with it, he gained a deeper understanding of the terror of the Divine Realm.

The mere fact that he had advanced to the Divine Travel Realm and the divine soul that had condensed in his sea of ​​consciousness overturned his understanding of the world.

If Xia Jin were to face Qiu Changtian, Xiao Fubai, and other experts at the ninth level of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm again, she believed she would be able to easily suppress them without even lifting a finger.

The distance between them is like an insurmountable chasm.

This statement may not be so absolute at lower levels, but it is fully demonstrated between the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm and the Divine Wandering Realm.

"Gurgle gurgle".

Xia Jin's stomach suddenly growled.

His continuous breakthroughs in cultivation levels actually aroused a long-lost hunger in him.

But just as they were preparing breakfast, hurried footsteps sounded outside the palace, followed by a eunuch's announcement: "His Majesty has arrived!"

Xia Jin picked up a bowl of white porridge and had only taken a few sips when Xia Yu strode in, his face somewhat grave.

"Big brother!" Xia Yu said as soon as he entered the door.

"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?" Xia Jin slowly swallowed a mouthful of porridge before looking up at the other person.

Xia Yu took a deep breath, walked to the table, and placed his hands on the edge of the table.

"Big brother, something's happened! Something's happened at the border!"
