Shennong Dao Master-Chapter 1539 - 1: Du Yun’s Surprise, the Fated Illusion Spell!
"I must also hurry and cultivate, lest Du Yun calls everyone over and I'm not ready yet," Zhao Xing muttered to himself.
...
Inside the Double Star Origin Space, Zhao Xing adjusted the Spiritual Energy Index to 1000, completely pouring money into pushing the progress of the Original Dao Body.
Since Shixin 1030, he has stayed here cultivating the third layer of "Purple Yin" and "Purple Sun."
The improvement of the Taoist Body is the enhancement of oneself by the Spiritual Energy Origin.
Now, those 840 million star acupoints, half are blooming with purple sunlight, the other half with Taiyin radiance.
It's as if there truly are 840 million Yin Yang Origin Stars within the body!
[Purple Sun Third Layer: 55%]
[Purple Yin Third Layer: 55%]
Zhao Xing opened his eyes and glanced at the progress, involuntarily frowning a bit.
"Before I started cultivating, it was 50%, and now it has only advanced this much."
He closed his eyes again, and upon reopening them, ten years had passed.
In ten years, the progress only increased by 5%!
Currently, just entering the late Second Realm, if the progress reaches over 75%, it represents the perfect Second Realm stage.
"It seems my aptitude isn't so extraordinary; this accelerated cultivation effect can only be considered above average," Zhao Xing reflected. The Second Realm is still a process of refining accumulation, basically without major bottlenecks, and he spent quite a bit of money to accelerate, but the effect hasn't been as good as before.
"I've also been distracted lately, constantly thinking about opportunities?"
Zhao Xing was completely unaware that he was being influenced by Wei Jiu.
A Tao Domain Realm Spiritual Spellcaster, Wei Jiu used a powerful spell to impose from afar. Although Zhao Xing wouldn't be tempted into action, he constantly thought of the matter.
"It seems I'll have to train my Spiritual Will someday; also, for subduing those powerful plant species in the future, I need relevant training," Zhao Xing reflected.
He believed his cultivation progress was too fast, causing his Spiritual Will to slacken.
Zhao Xing couldn't help but feel some self-blame and shame.
"How could I be like this?"
"I must always be vigilant."
He never noticed Wei Jiu's presence, nor did the Purple God Star Talisman activate at the base, as there were more than a dozen people in the Tao Domain Realm here, failing to meet the trigger conditions.
Zhao Xing only considered himself as having slacked off, so he began to increase the difficulty of his cultivation mode, approaching closer to the Double Star Origin, allowing the heat and chill to invade his body.
"Ah~~"
The pain, the excessive infiltration of Origin Power caused agony.
Zhao Xing used this kind of arduous cultivation method to simultaneously cultivate the Cultivation Technique and temper his willpower.
...
Ten years passed, and Wei Jiu finished a small cup of wine.
He glanced at Zhao Xing's Grassman remnant, a bit puzzled.
"It's been ten years, and he hasn't come out? Did something delay him?" Wei Jiu pondered. If a significant figure summoned him for questioning or the like, even if Zhao Xing wanted to leave, he couldn't. Such a situation is indeed possible.
Yet, as long as Zhao Xing has the opportunity to leave, he will surely recall this 'opportunity', itching for it.
"Hmm, better wait a bit longer."
Wei Jiu wasn't in a rush, after all, ten years wasn't long for him.
Of course, the mission had a time limit; he must complete it within a hundred years.
If he fails, he will be demoted in the Dark Hall, not only losing the bonus but also getting his deposit deducted.
...
"Huff~ Huff~"
Zhao Xing panted heavily, his body half flushed and half covered with frost.
The progress of the Cultivation Technique appeared on the panel.
[Purple Sun Third Layer: 62%]
[Purple Yin Third Layer: 62%]
"Another ten years have passed, and this is a hundredfold acceleration, meaning I've cultivated for a thousand years, yet only increased by 7%?"
"My cultivation speed is only slightly better than an average cultivator's, can't be called genius at all."
Zhao Xing was somewhat doubting his life.
From the Ascension Realm to the First Realm, and then to the Second Realm, he had always been considered a genius.
"Could it be that what is now showing is truly my real cultivation aptitude?"
Zhao Xing felt a bit irked.
He began experiencing the troubles of an 'ordinary cultivator.'
At this moment, he again thought of the 'Preaching Scholar' issue.
"Who knows when Du Yun will arrange it, hopefully later."
"Ah, how shameful."
Zhao Xing shook his head, forcing himself to focus.
...
"Another ten years have passed." Wei Jiu finished his second cup of wine, looking at the Grassman remnant. "What's going on, still not out?"
Wei Jiu also furrowed his brows slightly.
Logically, after casting his spell, Zhao Xing should have appeared soon.
After all, its effect was strong; unless something life-threatening delayed him, the target would rush over by any means.
"Could it be my spell was discovered?"
"Impossible, there's no issue with the spell's medium."
Wei Jiu glanced at the Grassman remnant. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
"Even if he cultivated the Three Gods Fate Palace, my method isn't Cause and Effect transmission."
"Forget it, wait a few more years."
Although slightly surprised, Wei Jiu didn't take it to heart.
But when he finished his third cup, he felt something was amiss.
"Another ten years have passed."
"A full thirty years, yet no movement?"
"Could he have successfully resisted my spell?" Wei Jiu muttered to himself. "That's not right, he's only in the Second Realm, how could it be."
Wei Jiu began doubting himself.
"Seems I need to intensify it." Wei Jiu thought, "But doing so increases the risk of being discovered."
...
"Hmm?"
Inside Yuanhai Palace, Zhao Xing couldn't help but widen his eyes.
His heartbeat raced, Qi-Blood surged, as though a great fortune was descending upon him.
"Have I sensed a chance to establish the Domain of Dao?"
"Hiss, and just beyond the Illusion God Star System, could it be some treasure floated out from Yueluo Cemetery?"
