Chapter 1486 (Raw 1466): Three Months in the Blink of an Eye

One month later, Xiao Chen had refined all two thousand Primordial Pills, and his cultivation returned to his peak.

Xiao Chen’s Primordial Energy numbered one thousand strands once more. Then, he re-refined his original cultivation.

Previously, every strand of Primordial Energy in his Heart of an Emperor was like a blurry dragon swimming around. Now, it had the form of a True Dragon, no longer just a vague image like the past.

Upon reaching this point, Xiao Chen felt like he had no way to continue cultivating his Primordial Energy. There seemed to be an invisible wall blocking him.

Even the Primordial Energy from outside this world could not allow his Primordial Energy to advance further.

Xiao Chen had reached the bottleneck of a Martial Emperor. Unless he broke through to Prime, improvement was impossible. However, his path was unique. He was not even considered a Martial Emperor, so how was he to break through to Prime?

Having to worry about how to continue cultivating after this was truly frustrating.

This was a very awkward stage. Xiao Chen was merely thirty-five years old—an age that was still considered a youth in the Kunlun Realm.

Despite his young age, Xiao Chen could no longer advance his cultivation—although he clearly still had a huge potential to draw on.

Unfortunately, he already stood at the peak of this abandoned land.

The purple Emperor’s Door hovered in the middle of Xiao Chen’s Heart of an Emperor. This piqued his interest greatly. He remembered that this Emperor’s Door contained an incredible amount of energy.

Back then, it had only cracked open, but that had been enough to allow him to defeat Di Wuque with one punch the instant he jumped off the Emperor’s Road.

Perhaps this mysterious Emperor’s Door was a direction for him to cultivate towards. However, he was helpless to do anything about it. Previously, when his Primordial Energy was still only vague forms of dragons, no matter how they crashed into it, they could not even shake the door, retreating with nothing to show for their efforts.

Perhaps the only way forward would be to seek a solution in that mysterious Azure Dragon Palace.

“I’ll try it again!”

Xiao Chen decided to use his Primordial Energy to smash into that purple Emperor’s Door. Now that he had returned to his peak and even improved further, he might be able to push it open.

With a thought, Xiao Chen readied his heart. The strands of True-Dragon-like Primordial Energy twisted and coiled around each other. The one thousand strands of Primordial Energy became like a hemp rope woven together.

This formed one huge dragon-shaped strand of Primordial Energy. The purple dragon scales on it were distinct; it looked like a true lightning dragon.

The Emperor’s Door hung high in the sky, its two doors tightly shut. It remained silent in this Heart of an Emperor.

Charge!

Feeling heroic, Xiao Chen decisively controlled the bundled strands of Primordial Energy and sent them at the Emperor’s Door.

“Bang!” The Primordial Energy advanced courageously and crashed into the Emperor’s Door. Then, it immediately scattered, plunging the entire Heart of an Emperor into a mess of primal chaos.

The force of the impact rebounded. Xiao Chen vomited a mouthful of blood.

When the primal chaos scattered, Xiao Chen saw that the Emperor’s Door remained tightly shut. He smiled bitterly. It’s still impossible.

Actually, the initially stiff and tough strands of Primordial Energy had some spiritual liquid infused into them, making them much softer.

There was a softness amid the hardness, advancing as both hard and soft. The Primordial Energy seemed to have vaguely improved.

However, Xiao Chen’s thoughts were focused on the Emperor’s Door, and he did not notice this minute change.

“Never mind, although my cultivation cannot advance, there are still many aspects that I can improve.”

Xiao Chen wiped away the blood at the corners of his lips and shook his head, not wanting to think about this problem anymore.

There were still many areas where Xiao Chen could improve his strength: the comprehension of Great Dao Energy, the Divine Lightning Eye, and the Taiji Dao, and the perfection of the Flawless Saber Technique, among others.

He needed to deal with the urgent ones first. He already knew which aspect he wanted to start with.

There was only one trump card that Xiao Chen had yet to reveal: the Divine Lightning Eye, his Supreme Magic Skill.

When Xiao Chen consumed the Universe Origin Fruit, not only did he comprehend Great Dao Energy, but his Magic Energy also increased remarkably.

For Immortal Cultivators, after the Yuanying Stage were the Nascent Transformation Stage, the Soul Transformation Stage, the Void Training Stage, and the Great Multiplication Stage. Xiao Chen had already broken through the Soul Transformation Stage and reached the Void Training Stage.

However, he did not spend too much time on his Immortal Cultivation. Even the Immortal Venerates only amounted to that much, so why spend so much time on it?

Nevertheless, an increase in Xiao Chen’s Magic Energy would allow him to execute Magic Skills, such as Divine Lightning Eye and Dharmic World, more easily.

Immediately after this, Xiao Chen spent most of his time on the comprehension of the Divine Lightning Eye. He needed to cultivate to the third layer and be able to bring out three bolts of lightning tribulations.

He devoted the remaining time to his Great Dao Energy, continuing to solidify his current cultivation of it.

As for the Flawless Saber Technique, the Myriad Heaven Divine Fist, the Taiji Dao, the Fish Dragon Art, and the other Martial Techniques, Xiao Chen set them aside for now, merely giving them a once-over for proficiency.

These peaceful days passed slowly, just like that.

At the foot of the mountain, the Dragon’s Gate was being rebuilt. Back then, although the city’s buildings were razed, their foundations remained. The formation lines buried in the ground were only damaged and not destroyed.

Hence, the reconstruction was extremely fast. In less than a month, the vague silhouette of a city had already appeared.

The entire sect was activated to rebuild the city. Furthermore, there was assistance from various places. In less than two months, a new Heavenly Dragon City reappeared on Heavenly Star Island.

The sun rose and set; the clouds gathered and scattered. In the blink of an eye, another month passed.

Xiao Chen’s comprehension ability was very astonishing; he succeeded in cultivating the Divine Lightning Eye to the second layer. With a thought, he could trigger two lightning tribulations in his right eye and unleash them.

However, he tried to break through to the Divine Lightning Eye’s third layer a few times and failed.

Magic Energy surged in Xiao Chen’s sea of consciousness as he formed hand seals with both hands. Many flashing talismans manifested in his sea of consciousness, filling the sky like snow and entering the Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning.

After Xiao Chen finished forming the final hand seal, the original light dimmed. The Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning, which was previously still, started spinning, sending out thousands of beams of electric light.

This lit up the entire sea of consciousness. Under the illumination of this Divine Lightning, everything appeared dim with their light obscured.

This was the master of lightning tribulations during the Immortal Epoch. When it released its light, everything would dim.

Xiao Chen felt an intense swelling in his right eye. Then, all the electric light gathered into a seed and entered that eye.

When the seed was buried in the depths of his eye, the Magic Energy in the sea of consciousness served as the seed’s nourishment and rapidly drained.

When half of the Magic Energy was drained, the lightning tribulation seed sprouted and blossomed, forming two flowers.

The black flowers had nine petals each. As they spun quickly in Xiao Chen’s right eye, his aura soared infinitely. Thunderclouds hung low in the sky, appearing like one could touch them just by stretching one’s hand up.

“Xiu!”

When the petals of the flowers closed, a flash of electric light appeared one kilometer away, destroying the space there.

The startling thunder resounded in the surroundings. If not for Xiao Chen deliberately suppressing the might of these two lightning tribulations, which were layered over each other, they would be sufficient to kill an Eighth Heaven Martial Emperor instantly. Even a Holy Master would be severely injured and lose his combat prowess.

However, it would be hard to say for a Prime. Inflicting a fatal injury on a Prime would be very difficult.

“I need to be able to layer three lightning tribulations before I can truly injure a Prime since Primes can instantly recover from normal injuries,” Xiao Chen muttered to himself, softly analyzing.

Unfortunately, Xiao Chen had not chosen to comprehend the Thunder Great Dao that day instead of the Saber Dao. If Xiao Chen comprehended the Thunder Great Dao, the might of the Divine Lightning Eye, with the support of Great Dao Energy, would be able to threaten Primes.

There was no perfect solution to everything. If Xiao Chen had not comprehended the complete Saber Dao, the might of the Flawless Saber Technique would not have reached its current strength.

“Now, the execution of the Divine Lightning Eye’s second layer is incredibly smooth and easy. With another month, I should be able to barely execute the Divine Lightning Eye’s third layer.”

Xiao Chen closed his eyes and sat down cross-legged, cultivating once again.

There was nothing particularly difficult about the cultivation of the Divine Lightning Eye. After all, this was the Supreme Magic Skill that the Thunder Immortal Ancestor directly passed on to him. Furthermore, he had the Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning, a powerful weapon. All he needed to do was meditate and comprehend, progressing systematically.

Hence, another month passed peacefully this way. On this particular day, just when Xiao Chen was about to attempt a breakthrough to the Divine Lightning Eye’s third layer, a beautiful figure flew up nimbly from the foot of the mountain.

Xiao Chen revealed a smile and changed his plans. Then, he leaped up and landed before the approaching person.

“Mo Chen, you are here.”

The arriving person was Mo Chen. Normally, she would not interrupt Xiao Chen. Since she was here, she definitely had something that she needed to tell him.

In three months, not only had Xiao Chen completely recovered from his injuries, but his complexion had even improved.

He now exuded an air that rivaled a Holy Master’s. He was also in high spirits, appearing very lively.

Mo Chen became distracted at this sight. After she startled to her senses, she blushed slightly. Then, she smiled and said, “The Dragon’s Gate is mostly rebuilt already. Three days from now, we will host the various Holy Lands and ancient Noble Clans of the Heavenly Starry Ocean that we invited. At that time, Big Brother Xiao needs to make an appearance. I’m here to let you know to prepare.”

When Xiao Chen heard this, he said softly, “So, it has been three months. It’s fine. I will definitely arrive on time three days hence.”

“In that case, I’ll take my leave first and not interrupt Big Brother Xiao’s closed-door cultivation.”
