Starting With 100 Million Lives-Chapter 598: Rapid Progress
If judging by surface momentum, the power displayed by the three Earth Profound Realm practitioners is not even comparable to the Golden Immortals from the Immortal Realm.
However, when it comes to the purity of power, they have already surpassed the late-stage Quasi-Emperors of the Immortal Realm.
Upon first contact, Jiang Cheng's Immortal Power actually began to dissipate.
The opponent could break through his Immortal Power Barrier.
In the Immortal Realm, only an Immortal Emperor could achieve this.
He quickly understood the reason.
His Immortal Power was not as pure as the Profound Power in their bodies.
It's like the suppression of the Dragon Race's bloodline, where a purer and higher-tiered bloodline naturally suppresses a lower-tiered one.
Fortunately, his Realm was too high, and the accumulation of Immortal Power was many times that of his opponents.
So ultimately, he forcibly suppressed them instead.
With massive Immortal Power and his peak Sword Heart, he knocked all three people to the ground.
This scene terrified the White Profound Race people in the dreadful settlement.
In their eyes, the Divine Hall Guards were already omnipotent.
Stewards and Sub-Pavilion Masters were even more supreme.
Now being effortlessly defeated by this Otherworldly Evil Demon, everyone was at a complete loss.
Immediately, people frantically fled outside, as if Brother Cheng was about to massacre them.
"Evil demon, what do you want to do?"
The Divine Hall members who were knocked to the ground stared angrily, with a hint of fear.
Brother Cheng shook his head and sighed, "Why must you insist on this?"
After speaking, he rudely confiscated the personal resources of the Sub-Pavilion Masters.
"Chasing me like this, I just can't let it slide without showing something, right?"
Then, he hung everyone upside down from a few big trees nearby.
These ropes could be easily broken by the crowd, but in front of Brother Cheng's sword, they weren't foolish.
The damage was not great, but the humiliation was extreme.
Especially since many fellow race people were watching from afar, making it even more disgraceful.
After leaving them hanging for a day, Brother Cheng finally leisurely departed.
Everyone looked at one another, faces flushed with anger and resentment.
After a long time, the leading woman gritted her teeth and said, "I swear to share a grudge with this evil demon!"
Over on the other side, Brother Cheng was already taking stock of the resources he'd just acquired.
The Xuan Race people don't have Pills; their cultivation mainly relies on Profound Origin Fruits and Secret Void Holy Sand.
Each Profound Origin Fruit contains massive amounts of Profound Power, and refining it afterward can quickly elevate one's Cultivation Realm.
Many tribes cultivate them, but the quality varies, leading to vastly different effects.
The Secret Void Holy Sand, however, is an extremely rare Heavenly and Earthly Treasure, with every grain containing some special power that helps advance Profound Power.
Among the resources he had just confiscated, there were indeed some Profound Origin Fruits.
From First Grade to Fifth Grade, everything was available, though not in large quantities.
Brother Cheng currently doesn't know the Xuan Race Technique, but that's not a problem for him.
Opening the system panel, he selected the Xuan Race Technique and scrolled directly to the top.
To learn, learn the best!
Supreme Profound Divine Refining Scripture—13.5 billion Merit!
"Whoa, this is a bit pricey!"
"If it weren't for my ability to earn, I couldn't even afford this."
But great price comes with great benefits.
This Cultivation Technique is a Divine Level Technique currently unavailable to the Xuan Race in the Ruins Realm.
The most notable feature of a Divine Level Technique is its ability to unleash the strongest power at the same tier.
This technique is all-encompassing and compatible with all martial techniques and secret techniques of the four Xuan Race branches, boasting great compatibility.
Finally, it has a high upper limit; with enough Talent, it can even break through the Xuan Race's limit, the Emperor Profound Realm.
"Exchanged!"
He gritted his teeth; certainly, only the best Cultivation Technique fits the status of a protagonist.
After exchanging, he immediately advanced this technique to the current Realm's Great Perfection.
Instantly, his mind was filled with a vast amount of knowledge regarding Xuan Race cultivation.
Though a day ago he hadn't even entered, now, he had become the person with the most solid foundation among all within the Xuan Race.
No way around it, Divine Level Techniques are just that overbearing.
Unfortunately, his current Realm is only Mortal Profound Realm Fourth Layer.
But Brother Cheng, the 'Pill Expert', is not stumped by this.
He had no intention of meditative cultivation; he took out the Profound Origin Fruits he just acquired and began absorbing them.
The refinement speed of the Celestial Desolation Indestructible Body was incredibly fast; in just a moment, all the Profound Origin Fruits were converted into his Profound Power.
Fifth Grade Profound Origin Fruits are already equivalent to the Immortal Realm's Immortal Pills over there.
Using them for breakthroughs at Mortal Profound Realm is truly a waste of treasures.
His Realm was breaking through like crazy.
Mortal Profound Realm Fifth Layer!
Mortal Profound Realm Sixth Layer!
Soon, he rushed to Mortal Profound Realm Ninth Layer!
He was already equivalent to a Saint Tier expert among the Xuan Race.
Brother Cheng achieving this is actually quite reasonable.
Divine Level Technique, Celestial Desolation Indestructible Body, plus his original late-stage Quasi-Emperor martial cultivation experience, any one of these is enough to defy common sense.
Moreover, he had all three.
If he's not fast during this 'newbie stage', that's when something is wrong.
But Brother Cheng was clearly not satisfied, as this was not even Immortal yet.
So he opened the System Mall and exchanged for a Seventh Grade Profound Origin Fruit.
After consuming it, his Realm surged to the Mortal Profound Realm Peak, yet he could not break through to the next stage, the Extreme Profound Realm.
"What's going on here?"
After pondering for a while, he couldn't figure out the reason and thought he needed to ask someone knowledgeable.
Thus, he retraced his steps back to the previous tribe.
Members of the Divine Hall had already made a disgrace there, now each was either enraged or dejected, planning to leave.
However, Brother Cheng appeared before them again.
"Evil demon, what do you want now?"
They were on the verge of collapse.
Even though they had just sworn to be irreconcilable with him, they knew they were no match for him.
"I suddenly remembered, there are some questions I forgot to ask."
The Sub-Pavilion Masters thought Brother Cheng was deliberately toying with them.
"Evil demon, I warn you not to go too far!"
"If you want to kill, just do it. Why play this game?"
However, the Divine Hall disciples recalled that last time, the mysterious man had asked a few questions and then really left.
Perhaps, it would be better to cooperate with him...
The leading woman awkwardly cleared her throat, "Ahem! What do you want to ask?"
"I want to ask, why can't I break through to the Extreme Profound Realm?"
Extreme Profound Realm?
"You just entered; it's still early for the Extreme Profound Realm..."
Just as she said these words, all eyes widened as if seeing a monster.
"You, you you you..."
"You've already reached the Mortal Profound Realm Ninth Layer?"
"How is that possible?"
"That's too outrageous!"
Members of the Divine Hall have always been the most knowledgeable across realms.
But now, they looked like they had been battered by a storm, their faces distorted.
Just a day ago, they had personally witnessed Brother Cheng emerge from the Soul Gathering Pool.
So they knew clearly that this person originally had no Profound Power.
Now, such rapid progression leaves them dumbfounded.
