NOVPUBHaving said that, Grandpa Shi San took out an ancient-looking jade slip and handed it to Lin Jing.
Lin Jing received the jade slip and then spoke,
"Thank you, elder..."
Grandpa Shi San just waved his hand:
"No need..."
"In the next few days, you should look over those Cultivation Insights, and if there is anything you don’t understand, feel free to ask me..."
"Alright..." Lin Jing said.
...
Time flew by, and soon another ten years had passed.
For ordinary people, ten years could be described as a multitude of changes.
For cultivators, however, it was like a fleeting moment.
But Lin Jing was different.
In these ten years, Lin Jing made significant gains.
With Grandpa Shi San’s guidance, Lin Jing finally achieved full comprehension, ready to enter Divinity Transformation at any time.
Moreover, not only his cultivation, but even his Body Refinement cultivation had made rapid progress with the help of Grandpa Shi San.
The methods for Immortal cultivators and Body Refinement cultivators to enter Divinity Transformation differ; however, Lin Jing had not known the method for Body Refinement cultivators until then.
Originally, Lin Jing had thought about giving up the Overlord Divine Physique and focus only on practicing techniques until he opened the ancient Martial Dao insights Grandpa Shi San gave him and saw the first sentence:
"Immortal Dao refines the spirit, Martial Dao refines the soul..."
Only then did Lin Jing learn the method for Body Refinement cultivators to enter Divinity Transformation.
Refining the soul, merging intent...
Enhancing the Soul Spirit.
Refining the soul involves training the soul spirit, with a strong spirit comes a firm intent, and with intent merged into the Dao, that is the Martial Dao...
The method to train the soul spirit is simple: continually refine one’s intent through battle until it merges into one’s body, blood, and instincts.
Thus achieving the Martial Dao.
After learning the method for Body Refinement cultivators to enter Divinity Transformation, Lin Jing then asked Grandpa Shi San for help in training and entering the Martial Dao.
After ten years of training, Lin Jing was only one step away from achieving the Martial Dao.
That step was the Heavenly Tribulation; only the Heavenly Tribulation could help Lin Jing complete that final step...
...
Finally, Lin Jing was ready to undergo the Tribulation; however, at this time, a significant event occurred again in the Nanming Domain...
"It’s terrible, something big has happened..."
"The seal of the Demon Race Secret Realm has been broken."
"The Howling Sky Wolf Clan, along with the other six major Demon Clans, has mobilized seven cultivators above Divinity Transformation, vowing to occupy the entire Nanming Domain."
...
"Two heavyweights from the Western Demon Region have already been called into action, but they probably won’t last long..."
"We should flee quickly..."
...
...
The news of the broken seal of the Demon Race Secret Realm quickly spread.
It made the entire Nanming Domain tremble in fear.
Especially in Nanshan Market, the closest to the Demon Race Secret Realm, chaos erupted once more.
Within a day of the news spreading, eighty percent of the cultivators in Nanshan Immortal City had left.
Some people who didn’t believe it went personally to the entrance of the Demon Race Secret Realm.
Even though three Sect Elders guarded the entrance of the Demon Race Secret Realm, the signs of the broken seal were still visible.
Once they confirmed that the seal of the Demon Race Secret Realm was indeed broken, these people dared not stay there any longer.
They immediately flew away on their swords, quickly leaving the area.
...
As the news of the breach spread, and everyone hurried to flee Nanshan Immortal City, two individuals were walking towards it.
These two people were Lin Jing and Grandpa Shi San.
"The union of the seven great Demon Clans, they really don’t give up."
"Since that’s the case, I might as well make a move and give them a warning."
The one who spoke these words was Grandpa Shi San.
As Lin Jing followed behind Grandpa Shi San, he couldn’t help but feel reflective.
The predicament of the Nanming Domain had lasted for a long time already.
To the low-level cultivators of the Nanming Domain, it was a disaster.
Yet in Grandpa Shi San’s eyes, even the union of the seven great Demon Clans was not much of a concern.
This was the gap between cultivators.
...
Lin Jing followed Grandpa Shi San and quickly arrived at the entrance of the Demon Race Secret Realm.
The Demon Race Secret Realm was the place where Grandpa Shi San planned to enter the Outer Spatial Void.
According to Grandfather Shi San, the Demon Race Secret Realm was not originally a realm of this world; it was an ownerless land that had fallen from beyond the realm.
Therefore, the barriers of the Demon Race Secret Realm were the weakest.
It just so happened that he could use this place to break through the barrier and enter the Outer Spatial Void.
Moreover, Lin Jing’s Tribulation also needed to be conducted within the Demon Race Secret Realm.
...
Just as Lin Jing and Grandfather Shi San had arrived at the entrance of the Demon Race Secret Realm...
At this moment.
Inside the Demon Race Secret Realm.
Two Body Refinement Cultivators from the Western Demon Region stood towering in the void, and behind them were the remaining two ancestors from the three major sects of the Nanming Domain.
Across from them were seven Body Refinement Cultivators from the seven major Demon Clans.
All seven Body Refinement Cultivators emitted an extremely terrifying aura that made people shudder.
The two Body Refinement Cultivators from the Western Demon Region were manageable, but the Qingyuan Sword Sect and Yiyun Pavilion elders behind them were struggling to cope.
At this moment, they could only barely hold on.
"The Nanming Domain is Human Race territory, have your incursions from the Western Demon Region been a bit excessive?"
At this time, a towering figure among the cultivators in the Nanming Domain camp, who also had an extraordinary appearance, spoke up.
Considering his attire, he should be the Grand Elder of the Xingluo Elixir Sect.
He was also Ji Xiyue’s father.
No sooner had Ji Xiyue’s father finished speaking, a Body Refinement Cultivator from the seven Demon Clans retorted immediately:
"What a joke…"
"Cultivators from the Nanming Domain killed my people from the Howling Sky Wolf Clan. My clan is not some weakling that anyone can squeeze. We must avenge this."
At this moment, a Body Refinement Cultivator from the Yuling Dao Sect spoke:
"Your Howling Sky Wolf Clan has occupied the Nanming Domain for over twenty years and killed so many people; what vengeance do you still need to claim?"
"Clearly you have other ulterior motives."
The Howling Sky Wolf Clan’s Demon Cultivator retorted:
"Quit the nonsense, it’s survival of the fittest…"
"The cultivators of this Nanming Domain are so weak; they deserve to be killed if they are killed."
"And you two…"
"Now that our seven clans are here today, we intend to obliterate the entire Nanming Domain. If you two are wise, you will leave immediately."
"If you are not wise, then you two might as well not leave..."
Having said that, the Howling Sky Wolf Clan’s Demon Cultivator’s aura suddenly surged, and his eyes turned blood-red.
Behind him, an enormous wolf shadow hundreds of feet tall flickered in and out of view.
Simultaneously, the other six also released their terrifying auras.
Behind them, various enormous shadows appeared—snakes, eagles, bears, and tigers...
Clearly, those were their true forms.
Seeing this, Ji Xiyue’s father and the Body Refinement Cultivator from the Yuling Dao Sect both furrowed their brows.
At this point, Ji Xiyue’s father, frowning, spoke again:
"Do you demons truly wish to start a war?"
"Since you will not retreat, then you might as well stay." The Howling Sky Wolf Clan’s Demon Cultivator seemed impatient as he charged towards the two men.
And the giant wolf shadow behind him shifted from illusion to reality, lunging at the two men.
As the Howling Sky Wolf Clan’s Demon Cultivator made his move, the other few followed.
The shadows behind them all turned from illusion to reality, emitting a terrifying murderous aura, lunging at the two men.
Upon seeing this, the two men’s auras surged dramatically.
And behind them, two huge human-like shadows suddenly appeared, each identical to the two men.
After the shadows appeared, Ji Xiyue’s father began to make a move, reaching out and slapping backwards.
And at the same moment, the shadow behind him shifted from illusion to reality and struck a palm backwards...
Originally, the elders from the Qingyuan Sword Sect and Yiyun Pavilion stood behind, but under the oppressive aura of the seven Body Refinement Demon Cultivators across from them, they were utterly immobilized.
Ji Xiyue’s father’s slap sent the two flying out of the area.
Meanwhile, the Body Refinement Cultivator from the Yuling Dao Sect also made his move, pulling out a golden bell Magical Treasure.
He then activated the bell, and immediately, invisible ripples emanated from the bell.
And behind him, even larger ripples spread out in all directions from the giant shadow’s hands.
The Howling Sky Wolf Clan’s Demon Cultivator was the fastest and soon approached the ripples.
He who was initially charging at the forefront suddenly paused.
The red glow in his eyes also diminished slightly.
Soon...
"Roar…"
With a roar, the Howling Sky Wolf Clan’s Demon Cultivator resumed his action.
Seeing this, the other Demon Cultivators made preparations in advance.
The ripples passed over them but failed to affect them in the slightest...
