Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

Under a staggering temporal disparity, Chu Zheng had to hasten his movements, drawing in vast amounts of Immortal Qi into his body.

The immense energy fluctuations instantly tore his body apart. Even the Taixuan Divine Fire Scripture's operations at their limits couldn't digest the endlessly growing immortal power.

Cracks appeared on the surface of his body, reflecting the dazzling immortal radiance that lit up the entire cave.

The effect of Immortal Qi on bettering Cultivation was immediate. Within a few breaths, Chu Zheng's cultivation had already been pushed to the Fourthfold of Immortal Tribulation, and it was still rising rapidly.

Despite the intense pain from his torn Dantian, Chu Zheng's expression did not waver as he closely monitored his state. Just as his physical body was on the brink of collapse, he utilized a healing panel to mend the damages on his body.

Now, the healing was limited, and he had to use every instance of it entirely on critical areas.

Before a short period had passed, Chu Zheng sensed that the Heavenly Tribulation had ceased where his avatar was located and only then did he stop refining the immortal power.

Even in that brief time, his cultivation had already advanced further into the Fifthfold of Immortal Tribulation.

Such shocking speed was impossible in the Immortal Tribulation Secret Realm; even for someone like Chu Zheng, who had an extraordinary talent and possessed a Superior Immortal Bone, with a Celestial Foundation condensed into an Immortal Root, proper healing was needed after undergoing tribulation.

Advancing across two realms was already defying the norm. It required the practice of Qi-refining Techniques and a method to quickly dissipate a great amount of Tribulation Qi, and Chu Zheng's case was almost impossible to replicate.

This tribulation had brought Chu Zheng several new insights.

Yin Corpses did not belong to ordinary living creatures. They existed beyond the Six Paths, similar to the inhabitants of the Vast Universe, and therefore, Tribulation Qi did not burden them.

Only when the cultivation reached a certain realm would the Heavenly Dao bring down Heavenly Tribulation. Stay connected via My Virtual Library Empire

A fortuitous coincidence had caused the Heavenly Tribulation to stir the Tribulation Qi of his physical body, leading to such rapid progression in Chu Zheng's cultivation.

In the eyes of Heavenly Dao, this Tribulation Qi was considered as resolved by Chu Zheng, and how it happened seemed to be outside of its concerns.

The increase in Immortal Path Cultivation brought great benefits to Chu Zheng. The most obvious was the enhancement of his Qi-refining Techniques.

His Qi Refinement Cultivation was only at the initial stage of Returning to Void, lagging far behind the Immortal Path. In the face of such a vast disparity in cultivation levels, the Tribulation Qi accumulated from his Qi Refining was negligible, allowing him to elevate his cultivation without any worries.

At least until he integrated his Dao, he wouldn't be troubled by Tribulation Qi.

This once again showed Chu Zheng a clear path; if he could continue this method of overcoming tribulation, by the time he crossed through the door of a True Immortal and refined Qi to become a Heavenly Immortal, it was undoubtedly just within reach.

...

...

Within the Great Tomb.

The desolate mountain range was a mess, scattered with traces of Thunder's rampage, and charred rocks were strewn everywhere.

The Yin Qi in the heaven and earth, shredded by the masculine air encompassed by the thunder, turned into wisps of black smoke. Like catkins in a breeze, they couldn't condense into form.

Jian Shier moved through the air, occasionally lifting his finger to lightly sweep across, drawing out pieces of flesh and bones, as well as organ fragments from the crevices of the rocks, gradually piecing Chu Zheng back together.

Even the Undecayed Bone couldn't withstand the forceful Heavenly Thunder and was smashed into pieces.

After a long while, Jian Shier finally managed to piece Chu Zheng back together. Within the split skull, the shattered Ancient Bell protected the last trace of his incomplete soul, preserving his life.

Jian Shier slashed open his wrist, drawing forth a stream of thick golden Holy Blood, pouring it down from the top of Chu Zheng's head.

Gurgle—

The charred flesh and blood instantly began regrowing and healing. Under the nourishment of Holy Blood, the ghastly wounds gradually closed, and the fragmented soul gradually revived, regaining vitality.

Chu Zheng's gaze was blank for a long while before gradually regaining his senses.

This time, the tribulation included one more Heavenly Thunder than the last, totaling five, because of Jian Shier, he did not use Frost Radiance Heavenly Brocade for protection, fearing that something might be revealed, and he was severely injured.

If it were not for the essence blood Jian Shier gave before the tribulation, his chances of surviving would be slim.

The Undecayed Bone had a strong body that even a Seventh Order Supreme Treasure could hardly damage, but it was shattered into pieces under the thunder, enough to glimpse the majesty of Heaven.

He regained his composure, pulled up the repair panel, and, seeing that the number of repairs had reset to zero, he directly injected three streams of Primordial Qi into it, then reactivated the repair panel.

As the Primordial Qi was injected, the repair panel quickly responded, turning the reset repair count into three.

He had discovered this method not long ago, the operation of the repair panel depended on the environmental Qi of heaven and earth, but in the end, it was just energy.

After the three streams of Primordial Qi were exhausted, Chu Zheng's internal injuries had mostly recovered, though his external appearance still looked somewhat fierce.

The Soul-shattering Bell had cracked, but fortunately, after repair, it could still be used, no need to waste Primorial Qi, just wait for the repair count to refresh tomorrow.

"Thank you for your help, senior."

After calming his slightly chaotic inner breath, Chu Zheng bowed.

Jian Shier had saved him by bleeding twice before the tribulation, which was no small favor.

"No need for formalities, follow me, I will take you to meet the Great Commander!"

Jian Shier spoke with rare excitement, and even his stiff face seemed spirited.

Given the realm of Undecayed Bone, to draw five Heavenly Tribulations and even survive under the thunder – such talent, he had neither seen nor heard of before.

Mediocre talents are not envied by Heaven;

the more tribulations drawn, the more monstrous Chu Zheng's talent proved to be, possibly surpassing him one day to become someone of the Great Commander's level.

Great Commander...

Chu Zheng paused slightly, feeling somewhat familiar with the title, and after recalling it carefully, his expression changed subtly.

Geng Yiyang had once mentioned to him that Great Commander was the appellation used by evil demons from the vast universe.

Those who could be titled as commanders were able to contend with True Immortals, even up to Nine Tribulations Perfection Celestial Lords, while a Great Commander, stronger than an Immortal Venerable, could only be opposed by an Immortal King.

Jian Shier, already a Perfect Eighth Order Holy Spirit, must certainly be venerating someone above the Ninth Order.

Without time to think deeply, Jian Shier had already lifted him up and stepped into a spatial passage.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Zheng appeared in a vast palace complex, spanning horizon to horizon, the Yin Qi curling up like ink visible to the naked eye.

At a glance, Chu Zheng was nearly overwhelmed by the information transmitted by his Spiritual Eye.

At least all were Yin Gods who had stepped into the Eighth Order, or Holy Spirits who had metamorphosed after undergoing tribulations.

This Great Tomb, amassed over tens of millions of years, was frankly shocking, already forming an immensely powerful Yin Army.

A doubt suddenly flashed in Chu Zheng's mind.

If this Taoist Master were truly on the verge of revival, would these Holy Spirits really be part of his original plan?

Probably not.

At the Realm of Ancient Myths, even if their powers were combined, they would likely be but a drop in the bucket for that Taoist Master.
