After becoming an honorary disciple, Persei was not in a hurry to leave. After all, even though he and the Meishan Master had to bring back a World Deity grade secret technique for the World Deities, it was fine as long as they returned before the war broke out. Both of them planned to leave before the twenty years were up. Before leaving, they naturally had to properly cultivate on Crimson Dust Island!
Crimson Dust Island was a holy land for cultivation!
The moment they left the world of the Xia people, they would not be able to return. They had to make full use of every second they had.
Persei grasped the Only Me Deity Heart and chose a body-related World Deity grade secret technique, the "Star River Hidden". This was a secret technique that could develop one's body to an unimaginable level. When cultivated to the extreme, one's entire body could transform into a boundless Star River! Other than being weaker than the "Time Immemorial Scripture" in terms of survivability, it was superior in every other aspect.
However, this World Deity grade secret technique was extremely difficult to grasp and cultivate. Only the Only Egoistic Deity Heart, which specialized in body research, could barely grasp it.
...
Of course, regardless of whether it was Persei or the Meishan Master, both of them had learned a World Deity grade secret technique. They were not a match for Dongbo Xue Ying. After grasping the Deity Heart and secret technique, it would be extremely difficult for Persei and the others to improve their strength any further. In fact, they might not even be able to improve in ten thousand years.
To grasp the complete Deity Heart and improve it further … they would need to comprehend the Deity Heart of other True Meanings and fuse them into their own Deity Heart. This would allow their Deity Hearts to evolve and improve. Their ultimate goal was to achieve a grade one Deity Heart.
But Dongbo Xue Ying was different.
His strength was rapidly increasing, and his three True Meanings were also improving. After all, he was still some distance away from reaching the Deity Heart realm.
"Sha sha ~"
Within Dongbo Xue Ying's Cultivation Paradise, within a spacious courtyard, there was a large tree whose leaves had already turned yellow. As the wind blew, the leaves fell to the ground.
The white-robed Dongbo Xue Ying's figure traversed the surrounding space, appearing and disappearing from time to time.
The long spear in his hand also pierced into the void.
"Rip!" "Rip!" "Rip!"
Black cracks suddenly appeared in the surrounding void, and the black cracks extended into the distance.
"I've finally mastered it." Dongbo Xue Ying walked out from the void, his eyes filled with joy, "After cultivating on Crimson Dust Island for eleven years, the last two moves of my spear art have finally been perfected."
"My strength has already increased to the point where there's no room for improvement." Dongbo Xue Ying's eyes were filled with a trace of disappointment. "Eleven years. You've improved much more than I expected."
Eleven years.
There was no voodoo poison interference! The Time Immemorial Body nourished the soul, making it even stronger! The cultivation conditions on Crimson Dust Island were even more shocking. In one go, Dongbo Xue Ying raised his three True Meanings from the Initial Stage to the Peak Stage Third Stage, and there was almost no way for him to advance any further. If he wanted to improve further … he would have to reach the Deity Heart realm.
"Shen Xin?" Dongbo Xue Ying frowned as well.
The three True Meanings had all reached the peak of the third stage realm, but he did not have the slightest premonition of grasping the Deity Heart in any of them.
Clearly, it was very difficult to take this step.
For example, the Meishan Master and Persei had reached the peak of the third stage realm for many years. They had gone through many years of tempering and accumulation, and under the pressure of the Crimson Rock Mountain, they had barely broken through. In reality, in the Deity World, there were many who could not take this step.
As for which True Deity Heart he would condense in the future when all three True Meanings reached the Deity Heart realm, Dongbo Xue Ying had not thought of it yet. However, there was no need to think too much about it now. Reaching the Deity Heart realm was the most important thing.
"My spear art has reached the Large Success stage! My True Meaning has also reached the peak! "Dongbo Xue Ying's eyes shone," I hope I can pass through the sixth level this time! "
The sixth level of the Soaring Cloud Pagoda had already trapped him for more than three years.
Now, he had mastered the last two moves of his spear art! His strength had increased by a lot, but this was also his last gamble! If he failed again, he would not be able to raise his strength in a short period of time.
…
From the outside, the cultivation paradise of the honorary disciples looked like an ordinary courtyard. However, the moment one walked in, the space would suddenly expand!
Dongbo Xue Ying walked out of the cultivation paradise and arrived at the Path of Reflection.
He continued walking up the stone steps of the Path of Reflection, step by step! To cultivate one's heart, one had to constantly clean it. If one did not advance, one would fall behind. Dongbo Xue Ying would walk the Path of Reflection at least ten times a day.
"Hong hong hong ~" Exhaustion filled his entire soul.
Yet, his soul was faintly glowing.
He walked step by step.
Walking past the first step, then the second. The exhaustion grew stronger and stronger, almost drowning his entire soul. As Dongbo Xue Ying walked forward step by step, he finally fell off the stone steps and fell into a deep slumber. He fell into the lake below, splashing water everywhere. Lying on the lake, Dongbo Xue Ying smiled. He got up and continued walking for the second time.
Again and again, ten times!
Dongbo Xue Ying calmly walked towards the Soaring Cloud Pagoda, raising his head to look at the nine floors of the pagoda.
…
On the sixth floor of the nine floors of the pagoda.
Dongbo Xue Ying walked up the wooden stairs. The sixth floor of the pagoda was a circular and spacious space. A white-bearded old man sat cross-legged in this space. A thin black sword rested on the old man's knees. The thin sword had no sheath, and it didn't exude any aura.
"It's been two months. Have you improved?" The white-bearded old man grinned. "Brat, if you haven't improved, then don't waste your time."
"Senior, this junior wishes to try again." Dongbo Xue Ying said.
"Alright."
The white-bearded old man stood up.
Weng!
All of a sudden, with the white-bearded old man as the center, ripples spread out in all directions. These ripples enveloped every corner of the pagoda. Regardless if it was reality, shadows, or the Mirage, everything was permeated by the ripples. Even the particles in the pagoda could be seen clearly. Furthermore, these ripples contained the power of 'vibration'. Even experts at the level of the Lords Of Ulan would be disintegrated if they were to stand near the white-bearded old man.
This was a terrifying secret technique used by the white-bearded old man.
Within the range of the ripples.
Ordinary newly ascended Deities would be easily killed by it.
Dongbo Xue Ying stood there, completely unfazed by it. His Time Immemorial Body was able to withstand it easily. He grinned and said, "Senior, be careful."
"Make your move." The white-bearded old man was extremely arrogant.
Hua.
Dongbo Xue Ying suddenly disappeared into thin air.
"He's hiding?" The white-bearded old man grinned. Countless ripples swept out in all directions, but gradually, his expression changed. "How is this possible!"
All of a sudden, the ripples in every corner of the pagoda became even finer, to the point that it was hard for the naked eye to see them clearly. The white-bearded old man carefully examined the area, using all of his investigative techniques.
"He disappeared!"
The white-bearded old man was somewhat shocked. He couldn't help but ask, "Brat, you've grasped the Mirage Deity Heart?"
From the way he saw it, grasping the Mirage Deity Heart would make one a part of the Mirage. One's ability to conceal oneself would be even more terrifying than when one was at the Stage 3 realm. In fact, one wouldn't even need to make a move himself. A 'Mirage True Body' would be able to match the strength of one's true body. This was also the reason why experts with the Mirage Deity Heart were known as the most terrifying assassins.
"You should have just reached the peak of the Stage 3 realm not too long ago, right? You didn't need to accumulate any strength, and yet you managed to reach the Deity Heart realm?" The white-bearded old man didn't dare to believe it.
"Junior isn't that powerful. Junior's True Meaning of Mirage has just reached the peak of the Stage 3 realm not too long ago. I don't even have the slightest clue about reaching the Deity Heart realm! It's just that I've just perfected this True Meaning of Mirage, which is why I'm able to reach this step. " Dongbo Xue Ying's voice resounded in the surrounding void. At this moment, Dongbo Xue Ying's confidence grew. This old man couldn't discover him, so his chances of winning had increased by at least 30%.
