Mastery of cultivation and Dao seal meant that Chen Zong had stepped into the Mastery of the Fourth Realm. His breakthrough would allow him to reach a level that other Fourth Realm cultivators would need to spend hundreds of years to reach. Imperceptibly, it meant that he had saved hundreds of years of time.
This was the benefit of being first on the Divine General Leaderboard.
Spending hundreds of years to reach the pinnacle of the Third Realm and then breaking through afterwards would bring even greater benefits. Not only would it save a lot of time, but it would also further strengthen one's foundation. It would also be very beneficial for one's future cultivation.
Of course, cultivation and Dao seal were only the foundation of one's strength. They only took up a part of it. How to use them depended on martial arts, absolute arts, and so on. None of these could be missing. One would need to experience actual combat to understand. However, the Master of Trade Wind had seen Chen Zong's battle in the Universe Secret Territory. He believed that Chen Zong's strength would not be weak. At least, he would be able to keep up with his cultivation and Dao seal.
In other words, the current Chen Zong was at least at the Mastery of the Fourth Realm, surpassing most of the Fourth Realm cultivators.
There were indeed many Fourth Realm cultivators in the Master of Trade Wind Tower. However, most of them were only at the Entry or Small Mastery level. Chen Zong surpassed all of them once he broke through.
Sealing off the news!
The Master of Trade Wind Tower immediately sealed off the news. Only he and the other Emperor level cultivators knew about Chen Zong's cultivation level. As for the Fifth Realm King level cultivators, although they were stronger than Chen Zong, they could not see through Chen Zong's restrained aura and determine Chen Zong's cultivation level.
Sealing off the news was naturally to protect Chen Zong. However, the outside world was also very curious about Chen Zong. After all, the first on the Divine General Leaderboard had lasted for 99 days under the Universe Secret Territory. What level had he reached after breaking through?
Small Mastery!
The news that the Master of Trade Wind Tower spread to the outside world was that he was at the Small Mastery level of the Fourth Realm. This coincided with other people's guesses and deductions.
"Even if it's not just Minor Accomplishment, it's probably only Peak Minor Accomplishment. It's impossible for it to be higher than that," someone speculated after analyzing the situation.
Indeed, the difference between Small Mastery and Great Mastery was very obvious. A normal Fourth Realm cultivator would need at least two to three hundred years to cultivate from Small Mastery to Great Mastery without any special opportunity. If there was a better opportunity, then it could be done within a hundred years.
As soon as Chen Zong made a breakthrough, he skipped the initial stage and reached the initial stage. It was already very shocking.
Since ancient times, it was said that most of the people who ranked first on the Divine Generals Ranking were like this. Only a very small number of them were able to achieve great success.
"This little bastard is actually at the Fourth Level Initial Tier." The Sky-splitting Sword Sovereign was furious. The stronger Chen Zong was, the more displeased he felt, and the heavier his killing intent.
However, Chen Zong had been staying in the Trade Wind Brothel all this time, and the Sky-splitting Sword Sovereign could not directly barge into the Trade Wind Brothel to deal with Chen Zong. He could only watch as Chen Zong lived and grew stronger. The Sky-splitting Sword Sovereign's hatred gnawed at his soul.
In fact, what the Sky-splitting Sword Sovereign did not know was that Chen Zong had already forgotten about him. After all, so many things had happened and he had experienced so much. Now that he had broken through to the Fourth Realm, even though his cultivation and strength had greatly improved, it was not the end. He still had to continue cultivating, and there were other things to do.
All in all, even with the help of the Heart Sutra, Chen Zong could not do it so easily. After all, after breaking through, there seemed to be more things to do, and he needed to cultivate, comprehend, and think more.
Unknowingly, the Sky-splitting Sword Sovereign and the others did not make any moves. Naturally, they were temporarily forgotten by Chen Zong.
If the Sky-splitting Sword Sovereign knew that he was constantly thinking about Chen Zong and wanted to kill him, but the latter had forgotten about him, he would probably vomit blood in anger.
In any case, he was also a sixth level emperor level expert. On Wan Yuan Island, he was the famous Sword Emperor, second only to emperor-level experts. He was one of the top three emperor-level experts on Wan Yuan Island. How could he be overlooked by a mere fourth level expert?
In the Trade Wind Brothel, Chen Zong's pavilion had changed again. The original pavilion belonged to the Third Realm, but now it was a Fifth Realm pavilion. Even though Chen Zong's cultivation was only at the Fourth Realm, with his talent and potential, no one had any objections.
You can object, as long as it proves that you are also very outstanding.
In the entire Trade Wind Brothel, no one could compare with Chen Zong in terms of talent.
He used to be first on the Divine Generals Ranking.
The Fifth Realm pavilions had stronger formations and stronger seals. Naturally, the effects of cultivating in them were better. As for all the secret cultivation places of the Trade Wind Brothel, they were all open to Chen Zong.
In the pavilion, Chen Zong used the Heart Sutra to organize many things at the same time.
When Chen Zong broke through, the mysterious seed had absorbed a large amount of power and Dao aura from the universe. Now, it had grown into a thin sprout. The power it contained seemed to be even more astonishing. However, Chen Zong still did not know what it was, so he could only put it aside for the time being.
"Now, the Inner Demon has escaped, and Senior Demon Heart is also nowhere to be found."
Chen Zong frowned.
Under the influence of the universe's power, something had happened after he broke through to the Fourth Realm. Senior Demon Heart had directly adapted to the laws of the universe. However, in the next moment, before Chen Zong could communicate with him, he was absorbed by a force and disappeared.
Chen Zong guessed that the force should be the power of the universe's will. As for why, Chen Zong had no idea at all.
In fact, whether or not Senior Devil Heart was still alive was still unknown.
There was nothing he could do!
This became a doubt in Chen Zong's heart. He could only explore it when he was strong enough.
When Senior Demon Heart disappeared, the Inner Demon was also unsealed because it was no longer suppressed by Senior Demon Heart's power.
After unsealing, the Inner Demon did not clamor or make any threats. It did not try to snatch Chen Zong's spirit and body. On the contrary, it escaped.
Yes, without hesitation, it directly left Chen Zong's Spirit Sea, escaped into the universe, and disappeared.
Why did that happen?
Chen Zong had some guesses.
After all, the Inner Demon had been suppressed by Senior Demon Heart's power since a long time ago. At that time, he and the Inner Demon were both in the Second Realm, while Senior Demon Heart was equivalent to the Fourth Realm. The difference in power was huge, so it was normal for it to be suppressed.
During the time when it was suppressed, Chen Zong gradually improved, but the Inner Demon did not. Now, Chen Zong had advanced to the Fourth Realm, but the Inner Demon was still equivalent to the Second Realm.
Even if it was unsealed, what could it do?
Seize Chen Zong's body?
Of course, it wanted to. The problem was that it could not do it. It was in the Second Realm, so how could it seize Chen Zong's Fourth Realm? It would be lucky if it was not beaten to death.
Of course, it would not be beaten to death by Chen Zong, but it would be suppressed again. Therefore, after learning from the painful experience, the Inner Demon made a prompt decision to leave Chen Zong first. Otherwise, if it continued to stay in Chen Zong's Spirit Sea, it would only be suppressed, and there would be no chance for it to improve.
It would come back to seize Chen Zong's body in the future.
Chen Zong's guess was not far from the truth. The Inner Demon was terrified, so it fled, and Chen Zong was in the midst of a breakthrough, so he had no time to take care of it.
However, once the Inner Demon was gone, Chen Zong had one less worry. If he encountered a strong enemy and was in danger, and the Inner Demon took advantage of it, it would be terrible.
In addition, the Boundless World Sword was left behind by the Lord of the World. It was originally a supreme-grade Dao weapon, but three layers of seals were imposed on it, so it was reduced to the level of a low-grade Dao weapon. Now that his cultivation had broken through to the Fourth Realm, it was enough to unlock one more layer of seal, so it could reach the level of a middle-grade Dao weapon, and its power would be stronger.
As for a high-grade Dao weapon, it was still impossible for him to achieve that with his current ability.
In short, the four grades of Dao weapons corresponded to the Entry, Initial, Profound, and Consummation Realms of the Great Dao.
The Dao Seal was the Initial comprehension and mastery of the Great Dao. The level of a Dao weapon that could be controlled was the middle-grade.
In addition, there was another very important point, which was the Celestial Demon Sword Codex.
The Celestial Demon Sword Codex was rich and mysterious. Even now, Chen Zong had not fully analyzed it, but he knew that the Celestial Demon Sword Codex was divided into four levels.
The first level was the Bronze Sword Body and the Mountain-crushing Sword Energy. The second level was called the Silver Sword Body and the Ocean Overturning Sword Energy, which were undoubtedly many times stronger than the first level.
The prerequisite for mastering the more powerful Sword Energy was to first cultivate the corresponding sword body.
However, it was difficult to cultivate the Celestial Demon Sword Body, and it required sufficient external help.
Chen Zong was able to cultivate the first level, the Bronze Sword Body, because of the power of the mysterious seed. However, Chen Zong had tried the second level, the Silver Sword Body, and he could not cultivate it. At least, it was not enough to rely on the power of the mysterious seed, and other external help was needed.
What external help was needed?
Naturally, it was mentioned in the Celestial Demon Sword Codex, and it was listed clearly.
Chen Zong had already sorted it out and handed it to the Leader of the Trade Wind House. He even took out the treasures he had obtained in the Universe Secret Territory as a form of exchange.
Perhaps the treasures he had found in the Universe Secret Territory were very valuable, but the external help needed to cultivate the Silver Sword Body was also very valuable.
Some of them were things that even Chen Zong had never heard of, and it was unknown whether he could collect them all in a short period of time.
Time passed slowly, and another half a year had passed since Chen Zong's breakthrough. In this half a year, Chen Zong naturally stayed in the Trade Wind House to cultivate.
Even though he did not have the help of the Universe Secret Territory, and the improvement in half a year was very small, Chen Zong did not feel discouraged, and he did not have any intention of relaxing.
Cultivation was like rowing a boat against the current, and if one did not advance, one would fall behind. The help of the Universe Secret Territory was only temporary, and one had to rely more on one's own hard work.
Today, Chen Zong was summoned by the Leader of the Trade Wind House.
"Greetings, Leader of the Trade Wind House." Chen Zong bowed respectfully.
"No need for formalities." The Leader of the Trade Wind House's attitude towards Chen Zong was very good. Although he could kill Chen Zong with a snap of his fingers, he could not deny that Chen Zong had amazing potential, and it would not be difficult for Chen Zong to surpass him in the future.
Of course, only Chen Zong enjoyed such treatment. The Leader of the Trade Wind House would not be so courteous to the others, even if they were Sixth Level Emperors.
"Most of the treasures you need have been collected, but there are three that are difficult to find," the Leader of the Trade Wind House said helplessly.
"But what are the three treasures?" Chen Zong's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately asked.
"Heavenly Gilt Silver Essence, Sword Principle Origin, and Wukong Divine Essence," the Leader of the Trade Wind House said helplessly.
