Realm-Hopping Martial Master-Chapter 411 - 256: Advancing to the Mixed Yuan Breath! Refining Earth Rank Divine Skills!
The Spiritual Cultivation Realms are: Deep Sleep, Meditation, and Fetal Breathing.
Within the realm of Fetal Breathing, the Mixed Element Breath is utterly different from the Conscious Breath and the Divine Breath.
This is a completely new stage.
It is where a person’s spirit and soul thoroughly return to their uncarved state, resembling the state of all things before heaven and earth evolved.
This pass is the most difficult one within the realm of Fetal Breathing.
It is even more arduous than advancing from the Furnace Fire Realm to the Primordial Pill Realm.
It requires supreme enlightenment to be attained.
Ordinary Spiritual Practitioners in the Divine Breath Realm might cultivate for a lifetime and still never truly touch upon the wonders of the Mixed Element Breath.
Like his former self, although his spiritual power had reached the peak of the Divine Breath Realm after devouring the consciousness of the Blood God, he had been unable to probe the mysteries of the Mixed Element Breath.
Instead, it was in the secret chamber, after mastering the entry-level "Azure Sky and Blue Sea Technique," that his understanding of heaven and earth deepened.
Finally, he had achieved a breakthrough on the eve of an impending crisis!
According to the Spiritual Cultivation system, once a person’s Spiritual Cultivation reaches the Mixed Element Breath, they can liquefy Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and infuse it into another person’s body, cleansing their marrow and rejuvenating their body.
In this realm, if someone were willing, they could mass-produce countless powerhouses.
On Xuanxing, so-called Dan Jin Great Grandmasters could be created with just a thought from Jiang Shu.
What’s more, for powerhouses of the Mixed Element Breath, their cells will evolve once again. Each cell is like it has its own soul active within it. A single cell is like a miniature human body.
His body emanated an unprecedented brilliance, and his life force leaped. Jiang Shu could clearly feel that his own body seemed to hold earth-shattering power. It was like billions of pieces of steel were vibrating. Within his mind, his spiritual power surged exponentially.
At this moment, facing the possession attempt by Master Xuan Shui of the Primordial Pill Realm, the Holy Embryo let out a fierce shout. Its spiritual power, no weaker than that of the Primordial Pill Realm, surged powerfully, empowered by the entry-level "Azure Sky and Blue Sea Technique," rendering it as vast as the blue sea and as boundless as the azure sky.
"You’re also a True Master Yuan Dan? No, only those in the Furnace Fire Realm can enter this secret chamber! You are in the Furnace Fire Realm! How is that possible!"
The lifespan of the Furnace Fire Realm is five hundred years; that of the Primordial Pill Realm is a thousand years.
With their great limit approaching, very few in the Primordial Pill Realm can truly live beyond a thousand years.
But True Masters Yuan Dan had fused their Cultivation Techniques and Divine Skills. Some, unwilling to die when their time came, would use various means to make one final gamble against the heavens.
Master Xuan Shui was one of them.
The so-called inheritance was a grand deception from the very start. What he wanted was to wait for a Furnace Fire Realm genius, one with superior natural talent, who could quickly master the entry-level "Azure Sky and Blue Sea Technique."
Only then, after his possession, would he have the chance to ascend to higher realms, from the Primordial Pill to Nirvana.
The Primordial Pill Realm grants but a thousand years of life.
But those who reach the Nirvana Realm and survive a tribulation gain another thousand years of life!
However, human calculations can never outdo the will of Heaven; he could never have foreseen that such a prodigy would appear in the Cang Mang Domain.
To condense the spiritual power of the Primordial Pill Realm while still in the Furnace Fire Realm!
Master Xuan Shui’s Dao Heart shattered. In the Primordial Pill Realm, his strength was not among the strongest, although alchemy had granted him spiritual power more formidable than his peers.
But even this enhanced spiritual power could not overcome the ravages of time. His physical body had reached its limit thirty years ago, and his spiritual power, long deprived of nourishment, had greatly diminished.
He was now merely comparable to an expert in the Early-stage Primordial Pill Realm.
As part of his plan, he released false information to lure True Masters Yuan Dan. He also arranged for his steed to be in the Great Hall, allowing only Cultivators of the Furnace Fire Realm to enter. This was all to ensure his absolute success in possession.
Having the inheritor cultivate the "Azure Sky and Blue Sea Technique" served a dual purpose. Firstly, it was a test of the inheritor’s talent. Secondly, it also facilitated an easier possession for him. By practicing the same Cultivation Technique, he would gain true familiarity and mastery over the body of a Furnace Fire Realm Cultivator.
However, all of this became ineffective upon encountering Jiang Shu.
The Holy Embryo’s voice boomed like a thunderclap. "Our spiritual powers are comparable, yet you intend to possess me within my own body?" The thirteen Divine Skills, tempered by True Fire, shone brightly.
"You possess only the spiritual power of a Primordial Pill Realm expert, yet your great limit has arrived, your physical body has perished, and you lack the Divine Power Pill. What do you have to fight me with?"
Within his mind, the clash of spiritual powers was like an invasion of fire and water.
Jiang Shu’s voice rang out clearly as he continued to suppress Master Xuan Shui. Within his own body, his spiritual power was supported by his flesh and enhanced by True Fire and the Holy Embryo, allowing him to sustain a protracted battle.
As for Master Xuan Shui, separated from his body and the Mystic Ice Coffin, his soul was like water without a source, bound to be exhausted one day. When his weakness is fully exposed, that will be the time for me to employ my Divine Skills and, in one vigorous effort, transform this surging spiritual power for my own use!
"Youngster, if you devour me, you will still face a dead end upon leaving! You may have the spiritual power of the Primordial Pill Realm, but you are still in the Furnace Fire Realm! Without condensing a Primordial Pill, you will never be able to defeat this True Man’s steed."
"Why not let this True Man reside within you, provided that in the future, you find me an excellent body? This True Man will not only give you all the inheritances but also provide you with many opportunities for advancement to aid your cultivation."
In the brain domain, Master Xuan Shui’s spiritual power continued its assault, yet his words began to soften.
"We can establish a Blood Oath with heaven and earth, for mutual benefit! Both of us could maximize our gains!"
Jiang Shu scoffed coldly. "On the brink of death, and still scheming!" Possession is such a critical matter; even the closest of friends and kin might not be truly trustworthy, let alone Demon Beasts bound by a contract of heaven and earth.
