The Mysterious Heaven Battle Fortress stood tall like an ancient mountain, majestic and unshakable.
It had been three months since Chen Zong's return and his sword had turned the tide, repelling the invasion of the Demonic Fortress. According to the previous pattern, the Demonic Void Army should have launched at least two attacks in these three months. However, this time, there was no movement from them.
The elites who went deep into the Void Battlefield brought back news that the void demon army seemed to have retreated for some unknown reason.
In short, there were no traces of the void demon army in the depths of the Void Battlefield. It seemed that they had really retreated.
The retreat of the void demon army was a good thing. It gave the Mysterious Heaven Army a chance to recuperate and replenish their strength.
However, they couldn't let their guard down because of this. The invasion of the void demon army had never stopped. The current retreat was only a temporary one. No one knew when they would return.
Therefore, the Mysterious Heaven Battle Fortress still existed. The Mysterious Heaven Army still needed to strengthen and replenish. Otherwise, when the void demon army invaded again, it would be difficult to resist.
For the past three months, Chen Zong had been in secluded cultivation.
The secret room was dark, without a trace of light. Suddenly, a divine light bloomed, as if tearing the darkness apart.
It was a pair of eyes that emitted a light.
Immediately, the divine light converged and became clear, as if the bottom of the water could be seen.
A long breath was also blown out. It was as if a storm had been stirred up in the darkness, and the darkness was swept away.
The door seemed to be pushed open by an invisible hand. A white figure that seemed to be filled with a hazy halo of divine light calmly stepped out, like a wisp of cloud streaking across the sky, light and graceful.
Chen Zong came out of seclusion. His aura had changed from strong to restrained. His entire person seemed to be as calm as water.
The peak of the Seventh Heaven Saint Realm!
He was only a step away from the Eighth Heaven Saint Realm. Chen Zong didn't deliberately seek a breakthrough.
Unless it was an emergency, a breakthrough would be a natural one. Like water overflowing from a full reservoir, this kind of breakthrough would strengthen one's foundation and not leave behind any flaws. There would be no need to waste time to fix them.
Within the Xuantian Army's treasury, Chen Zong could choose what he wanted. He had gained a lot on this trip.
Of course, Chen Zong only took a few things that were useful to him. After all, this treasury had been accumulated by the Xuantian Legion for generations. Being able to give him a chance to choose freely was already a great benefit. If he was too greedy, it would be detestable.
This was actually Chen Zong's principle of doing things.
Since the void demon army had temporarily retreated, it was unknown when they would attack again. Chen Zong's heart stirred.
It was time to fulfill the Ancient Asura King's wish.
He wanted to see if the Shura Sect still existed. He also wanted to find his close friend, the Rakshasa King, who had betrayed him and tried to assassinate him.
Revenge!
This was Chen Zong's promise after he received the inheritance of the Ancient Shura King's Ten Thousand Shura.
In the past, because his cultivation was not strong enough, he did not take action. But now, his strength had increased to a very high level. He was at the peak of the Saint Realm. Although he was still not comparable to a half-step Great Saint, he could already take action.
But before he left, there was still one thing he had to do.
Asura Clone Chen Xiu!
During this period, Chen Xiu had been hunting demons in the depths of the Void Battlefield. While absorbing their vitality to restore the power of the Nirvana Evil Sword, he also used it to improve his cultivation.
Since he was going to avenge the Ancient Asura King, it was necessary to bring his clone Chen Xiu along. With the Evil Eye of Nirvana, he could resist an ordinary half-step Great Saint.
On the way out of the Xuantian Battle Fortress, people kept bowing to Chen Zong to show their respect.
Perhaps in the Xuantian Army, Chen Zong's cultivation was not the highest, nor was his strength the strongest. But he was the most legendary one.
Turning the tide with one sword!
This was in full view of everyone. It was as if it was branded in everyone's heart. This was an amazing achievement.
Therefore, Chen Zong's military rank was promoted to General and he was given the title of Peerless.
The army had always worshipped the strong.
The so-called strong did not only refer to strength, but also other abilities.
Chen Zong was undoubtedly a strong master. He was also the first monstrous talent in history to be given the title of Jiandi by the King-Naming Pagoda.
Stepping out of the Xuantian Battle Fortress, Chen Zong quickly moved. He did not want others to know about the existence of his Asura Clone Chen Xiu.
After all, he still did not have the power to dominate everything. A half-step Great Saint was already stronger than him, let alone a Great Saint.
Sensing Chen Zong's intention, his Asura Clone Chen Xiu quickly rushed over from the depths of the Void Battlefield.
Finally, Chen Zong and his clone met up at the Demon Essence Valley.
There were still many Void Fiends in the Demon Essence Valley that had been slaughtered. This was a medium-grade danger zone. The strongest Void Fiend there was only equivalent to a Seventh Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage. Although it was stronger than an ordinary Seventh Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage, it was nothing to Chen Zong and Chen Xiu. They were like ants.
After the Void Fiends were slaughtered, their vitality was devoured by the Nirvana Evil Sword and their murderous aura was refined by Chen Xiu.
When Chen Zong stared at the Nirvana Evil Sword, he could feel a terrifying energy surging within it. The originally ordinary-looking Nirvana Evil Sword had traces of grey lightning flickering on it.
It was obvious that the Nirvana Evil Sword had recovered more energy after devouring the vitality of the Void Fiends.
Chen Zong was also surprised by his clone Chen Xiu's cultivation.
Early Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage!
He had tried his best to improve himself, but he was only at the peak of the Seventh Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage. However, his clone Chen Xiu had already reached the early Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage. It was truly shocking.
Of course, this was also due to Chen Xiu's physique and the Cultivation Method he cultivated.
They were extremely compatible, just like a Dao Body.
Strong!
Chen Zong felt that Chen Xiu was extremely powerful. Without using the Evil Eye of Nirvana, Chen Zong felt that he would not be able to defeat Chen Xiu. In fact, he might even be defeated by Chen Xiu.
After all, in addition to the great improvement in his cultivation base, his Burning Fiend Asura Art had broken through its original limit and evolved to the thirty-first level.
This was the transformation from a Supreme Saint Rank to a Peerless Saint Rank. It was a qualitative leap.
Looking at the current world, every peerless saint-ranked cultivation art was derived from a peerless saint-ranked cultivation art. They were all extremely compatible with the cultivator and were basically unsuitable for others. Hence, most of the time, they wouldn't be passed down. At the very most, only a portion of the peerless saint-ranked cultivation art would be left behind.
Take Chen Zong's Genesis Sword Technique for example. When he perfected the thirtieth level, he would be able to pass it down. After that, he would be able to create the thirty-first level or even higher. It would be a Cultivation Method that originated entirely from him. It was as if it had become one with him. Other than him, no one else could master it.
However, he was still far from evolving the Genesis Sword Technique from a Supreme Saint Rank to a Peerless Saint Rank Cultivation Method. There was no need to think too much about it for now.
In addition to the Burning Fiend Asura Art breaking through its limit, the Burning Fiend Asura Sword Technique had also broken through its limit.
Chen Zong and his clone smiled at each other. Immediately, Chen Xiu's clone turned into a streak of gray light. It was like a divine radiance at the beginning of the universe. It streaked across the sky as if it had traveled through time and space. It entered the space between Chen Zong's eyebrows and entered his Spirit Sea.
A gust of wind blew by, and a cool breeze was vast.
Instantly, Chen Zong transformed into a strand of wind that wandered through the heavens and the earth, and he flashed out swiftly with an extremely shocking speed towards the spatial passageway.
10th-grade secret technique, Secondary Divine Ability — Formless Heavenly Wind.
This was a movement technique, and it was a Secondary Divine Ability that Chen Zong found in the secret technique area of the treasure vault of the Dark Heaven Legion.
Formless Heavenly Wind!
Cultivating this secret technique allowed one to gradually grasp high level Heavenly Wind Dao Insight, but if one already grasped the Heavenly Wind Dao Insight before cultivating this secret technique, then it would be even faster and yield twice the result with half the effort.
Thus, in a short period of three months, Chen Zong cultivated it to the Initial Realm, and it was only a thread away from perfection.
But as a 10th-grade secret technique, the difficulty of cultivating it was extremely high. Chen Zong was able to cultivate it to the Initial Realm in a short period of three months, and it was extremely shocking.
The Formless Heavenly Wind Movement Technique at the Initial Realm was much faster than the Ninth Step of the Nine Heavens Thunder Stomp, and the sound was more subtle. It was extremely agile and light, and it had a mysterious charm that seemed to blend into the wind of the heavens and the earth.
When cultivated to perfection, it was as if one could really transform into a strand of wind between the heavens and the earth, formless and silent. This was the highest mystery of the Formless Heavenly Wind.
Fast!
Extremely fast!
Chen Zong chose the Formless Heavenly Wind Movement Technique, but it did not mean that he would give up on the Nine Heavens Thunder Stomp, a self-created secret technique. It was just that by comprehending and cultivating it, he might be able to better integrate his Dao Insight.
Arriving at the spatial passageway, Chen Zong did not hesitate to return to the Dark Origin World through the spatial passageway, and immediately left.
According to the Ancient Asura King, the Asura Sect belonged to the Dark Origin World, and it was the most powerful and prosperous world among the Nine Realms.
Naturally, the purpose of Chen Zong's trip was the Dark Origin World.
Thinking of the Dark Origin World, Chen Zong thought of the Dark Origin World, the Taixuan Saint Son, a formidable opponent.
In the beginning, he was suppressed by the Taixuan Saint Son. Later on, he caught up, and there was no clear victor. However, at that time, Chen Zong felt that if the battle continued, the possibility of him being defeated was not small.
In the King-Naming Pagoda, he had indeed fought with the Taixuan Saint Son and defeated him. However, that was under the condition that they were at the same cultivation level. In reality, the Taixuan Saint Son's cultivation level was higher than his by one Heaven.
This was a formidable opponent!
So far, Chen Zong had encountered many formidable opponents, but it did not take long for him to catch up to them. Only the Taixuan Saint Son was like a huge mountain in front of him, and it was difficult to surpass him.
Although this trip to the Dark Origin World was for the Ancient Asura King's grudge, Chen Zong had a premonition that he would meet the Taixuan Saint Son again.
This was a feeling that came from the unseen world.
"This time, it's time to decide who is better." Chen Zong said to himself. The light that shot out from his eyes seemed to be able to tear apart the eternal night. It was incomparably resplendent and would last for eternity.
Chen Zong's departure was very low-key. He did not tell anyone, but there were still people who knew.
It was as if thousands of feet underground, deep and dark, deep and quiet. Suddenly, there was a faint ghostly fire burning, making it seem even darker. Immediately, an obscure and hollow voice sounded.
"Chen Zong is finally leaving the Dark Origin World."
"Titled Jiandi, this person has unlimited potential. In the future, he will definitely be a supreme expert like Emperor Lingwu. It's a pity …"
