Peerless Dragon Sovereign-Chapter 565: Chu Nan’s New Method of Becoming Stronger
Outside Cangyuan City, Chu Nan and Zhi Tianping flew all the way out of Cangyuan City, finally beyond a thousand-mile range outside the oasis.
Until nightfall, Chu Nan circled around with Zhi Tianping, probing with his Spiritual Sense, and upon confirming there were no Martial Artists or Demon Beasts, he said, "Let’s do it here."
Zhi Tianping stood nearby, puzzled, and then a shocking scene occurred.
A magnificent and grand temple descended from the sky, its terrifying might causing the raging winds of the southern desert to briefly come to a halt.
The True Martial Holy Hall was like a lighthouse in the night, illuminating the surrounding world as if it were daylight.
"No matter how many times I see it, the True Martial Holy Hall is still awe-inspiring," Zhi Tianping nodded, unable to help but exclaim.
Chu Nan said nothing further, his mind willing the light of the True Martial Holy Hall to disappear, hiding it in the darkness filled with Yellow Sand.
This place was scarcely visited, even during the day, so no one would find it. Besides, Chu Nan’s Spiritual Sense was extremely powerful, allowing him to detect anyone approaching immediately.
"Come on, follow me inside," Chu Nan called out, opening the doors of the True Martial Holy Hall and entering it with Zhi Tianping.
Swoosh~
Upon entering the True Martial Holy Hall, Zhi Tianping was astounded by the rich Spiritual Energy, looking around and couldn’t help but say, "This is the True Martial Holy Hall. All this time in the southern desert, the sparse Spiritual Energy was almost suffocating me."
"Here truly refreshes one’s mind and spirit, making it feel like I’m about to break through my Cultivation."
Chu Nan chuckled lightly; it was the first time he had brought Zhi Tianping into the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, so he said, "You can cultivate here, and not far from here, there is Earth Mother Essence, all treasures needed for cultivation."
"Perhaps you can use the shortest time here to break through to the Fourth Heaven!"
Zhi Tianping nodded excitedly; he had long been dissatisfied with his Third Heaven cultivation.
Since reaching the Imperial Capital, with time passing, Chu Nan’s enemies grew stronger, and he was able to help less and less.
With Third Heaven cultivation, he was a powerhouse anywhere in the Celestial Crossing Realm.
But unfortunately, Chu Nan’s enemies were too strong, almost all being peak experts, with even those above Ninth Heaven making moves.
This made Zhi Tianping inexplicably anxious.
Thus he said, "Very well, don’t let me leave here until I cultivate to the Fourth Heaven!"
Chu Nan shook his head helplessly, but did not refuse. After all, if Zhi Tianping remained at Third Heaven, he would become less effective after entering the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall.
Afterward, Zhi Tianping entered the Earth Mother Essence pool to cultivate, while Chu Nan gradually went deeper into the True Martial Holy Hall.
The True Martial Holy Hall was an extremely powerful celestial-grade Spirit Martial, just like the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, also a land of endless inheritance opportunities.
The thirty-six True Martial Pavilions merged into one, revealing hidden opportunities, requiring Chu Nan to develop them through various trials.
But at the time of refining the True Martial Holy Hall, Chu Nan was too weak, and recklessly accepting the trials could have led to his death, but now the situation was different.
Chu Nan’s foundational Cultivation was only at the Seventh Level of the Cloud Sea Realm, yet he had shaped seven Cloud Seas, his real combat strength undefeated within the Sixth Heaven, considered a mid-level in Ninth Heaven cultivators.
Moreover, he had practiced five Ancestral Bloodline inheritance martial skills: Blood Sea of No Return, Zangba Evil Body, Moving Mountains and Shaking Heaven, Celestial Escape, and Soul-Seeking Flying Knife.
Within him flowed over ten different Ancestral Bloodlines, with an incredible amount of accumulation.
Any of these opportunities, if placed outside, could cause countless Martial Artists to fight fiercely for them, sparking numerous conflicts.
But the situation Chu Nan faced was far beyond what ordinary Martial Artists could experience, even with so many opportunities, he still faced the risk of death at any time.
Currently, his power had reached a bottleneck, requiring the True Martial Holy Hall to provide more means.
The internal space of the True Martial Holy Hall was exceedingly vast, almost equivalent to a city.
Chu Nan’s figure constantly shuttled through it, quickly finding a place of inheritance within.
"Soul Dao Inheritance..."
Looking at the gradually graying portal before him, Chu Nan murmured, recalling the withered soul he encountered in the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall during the Zhi Family Secret Realm.
The withered soul was extremely special, his own Cultivation unknown, but his Split Soul alone had reached the extraordinary upper grade, so Chu Nan deduced that the withered soul’s soul should have reached the stage above extraordinary, the saintly stage.
The leap from extraordinary to saintly is enormous, akin to heaven and earth.
Chu Nan’s soul had already reached extraordinary upper grade when at the Zhi Family Secret Realm, and although half a year had passed since then, he had devoured many Ninth Heaven cultivators’ souls, even refining the Ancestral Soul Dao Inheritance, the Soul-Seeking Flying Knife.
The intensity of his Sea of Consciousness had achieved another leap, but Chu Nan knew his soul was far from reaching the saintly level.
A soul attack is formless and intangible; even Chu Nan could not guarantee his soul could resist an attack from a saintly level soul.
After all, his own Cultivation was only the Seventh Level of the Cloud Sea Realm, insufficient to resist or even probe the saintly level soul attacks.
If he was recognized at the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall by the withered soul, everything could go to waste.
Thinking of this, Chu Nan strode into the gray portal, ready to challenge the Ancestral Soul Dao Inheritance, hoping to find the opportunity to elevate his soul into sainthood, even gaining the ability to resist saintly souls would be worthwhile.
Upon stepping into the portal, waves of gray mist flashed before Chu Nan’s eyes.
Chu Nan took a deep breath, discovering the mist was pure soul force, and as this power entered his body, it directly nourished his soul.
"Such curious power, worthy of the True Martial Holy Hall!"
Chu Nan was not too surprised, as the True Martial Holy Hall was one of three Holy Halls controlled by the Ancestor Sect before the division of the two realms, so it was not surprising what it concealed within.
If not for Kui Guang splitting the lower realm into two, with the True Martial Holy Hall and Desolate Ancient Holy Hall drifting to the Celestial Crossing Realm, Chu Nan would scarcely have had a chance to obtain or even release them.
Simplistically absorbing the mist, Chu Nan felt his soul become much clearer, and he continued forward on a quest for opportunities.
"How many years has it been since someone stepped here; this old man thought our Ancestor Sect was extinct."
Suddenly a timeless whisper echoed in the space, as if coming from the river of time, filled with the sense of age and antiquity.
Chu Nan’s expression changed, knowing the trial of this inheritance was about to appear.
Indeed, a surge of gray mist descended from the sky, forming a virtual image of an old man in a white robe.
This elder had an appearance of both youth and old, yet exuded the sense of having experienced countless eras, impossible to see through.
He eyed Chu Nan up and down, his transparent and illusory face suddenly furrowed into a frown, and then, somewhat incredulously, he spoke: "Could it be the lower realm has entered the era of the end of the law, else why does a Cloud Sea Realm have the qualification to step into the Holy Land of my Ancestor Sect!"
