Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Chapter 799: Chapter 501: Rising Up

In this world, the Southern Sea, the Hidden Dragon Abyss.

Within the White Jade Capital, inside Kylin Palace, on a jade couch, the person lying on his side opened his eyes, awoke, and looked around. He couldn’t help but chuckle and emotionally uttered, “The great dream has spanned a thousand years!”

With a sigh, the cultivator sat up and opened the long-missed attribute panel.

This journey into the dream, although rich in experiences—establishing a Cave Heaven Blessed Land and battling Calamity Immortal True Immortals—the overall time was not much, less than a thousand years in total.

In just a thousand years, I became a Calamity Immortal, established the Wandao School, refined the Nine Rites Xuanyuan, and ultimately defeated a Nine Tribulations True Immortal on Mount Emei Peak…

Such progress, such results, can only mean that the accumulated efforts over several lifetimes and the cultivation in the various Heavens have paid off. It’s like rolling a snowball—it gets bigger and stronger the more it rolls.

Reminiscing about the past, during my first dream of Zhuang Zhou, I spent over three hundred years in the Great Zhou World and in the end only managed to condense Divine Gang, without even breaking through the Martial Arts First Realm. Later, I entered Great Tang, practiced hard for a millennium, and reached the cultivation level of Second Realm Elixir Conception.

Now, within the same span of a thousand years, I’ve crossed into the Ninth Realm Tribulation Transcending and even possessed the ability to decisively defeat True Immortals.

This shows how profound the foundation Xu Yang has built up until today, with the support of skill characteristics and the vast Ten Thousand Realms.

Of course, these achievements are also inseparable from the Blue Star World. Without the unique situation created by the Demon Catastrophe, it would not have been possible for me to grow so rapidly.@@novelbin@@

The right time, the right place, and the right people—all three are indispensable!

All things considered, this dream experience can be deemed complete.

The only regret is that it didn’t result in any new independent skill characteristics; there was just the addition of Live Streaming, which includes several features that can enhance the viewing experience of “Live Streaming,” making it immersive while enhancing the condensation of human fate and luck, and even obtaining extra Heavenly Dao merits.

This skill, these characteristics, work very well in the Blue Star World, where the Demon Catastrophe is happening, and the Heavenly Dao is very evident, with clear rewards and punishments and not stingy with fortune and merits. With the help of skill characteristics, one can fully enjoy the treatment of the “Heavenly Dao’s protagonist.”

But it’s not the same in other worlds. Without external worries or internal troubles, and with the Heavenly Dao not in an “emergency defensive” state, operating in normal mode, it won’t offer cultivators such generous treatment.

So, even though Xu Yang has brought this “Live Streaming” skill over, its effects can only be said to be better than nothing.

Currently, Xu Yang mainly relies on, and has strong, independent skill characteristics such as these:

Dreaming Zhuang Zhou, Divine Travel Through Worlds.

Master of Taoist Laws, Master of Taoist Scriptures.

Heaven rewards hard work in martial arts, Master of Martial Scriptures.

Five Elements Spiritual Body in cultivation, Immortal Martial Dual Cultivation.

Teaching nurtures learning, Everyone Like Dragons.

Artifact Refining’s Heavenly Mechanics Methods, Immortal Spirit Mech Armor.

As well as the main features of skills like Pills Talismans Tools Formations, Spirit Plant Beast Mastering, and Earth Deity God Monarch.

The Hundred Arts of Cultivation, with all manners of skills and ways, have all developed relevant skills and a series of features.

These skill characteristics have formed a system; when combined, they can all stand on their own, whether it’s to enhance battle strength, accelerate cultivation, or manage and develop, cultivating subsistence production or nurturing forces.

It is with these many skill characteristics within me that my cultivation and the development of Wandao School have been so smooth, growing like a snowball and becoming unstoppable.

Apart from cultivation and development, there are battles and challenges. Whether it is the Daoist Law Ancestor from Taoism, the Five Elements Spiritual Body, Immortal Martial Dual Cultivation from Cultivation, or the Immortal Spirit Mech Armor from Artifact Refining, all greatly enhance my battle capabilities.

With the support of several lifetimes accumulated and cultivation potentials of the various Ten Thousand Realms, with Cultivation Skills Divine Magic, I can easily fight across realms, and even as an Integration Mahayana body, battle against Calamity Immortals and True Immortals to accomplish the mighty feat of “confronting immortals as a mortal.”

To sum it up in one word—strong!

This is the result of this dream journey. Now, let’s look at the changes in the current reality.

In the Blue Star World, in the era of Immortal Gods, the flow of time in relation to the real world is ten to one. Nearly a thousand years have passed in the dream, while a hundred years have elapsed in the real world.

A mere hundred years, to high-order cultivators, is not the blink of an eye, but is still a fleeting moment. Moreover, considering the need to oversee the dream realm, there wasn’t much I could do, so there wasn’t a major change overall. My cultivation merely progressed from Returning Void Earth Tribulation to Integration Heavenly Tribulation, with both Immortal and Martial arts entering the Seventh Realm.

A Seventh Realm cultivator is already considered mighty among the mortals of the world, capable of founding sects and dominating territories.

But to Xu Yang, it’s just so-so. Having encountered Calamity Immortals and True Immortals, what does mere Integration amount to?

“Integration is achieved; next… it’s time to advance to Mahayana.”

“Five hundred years into my cultivation journey, past favors and grudges, various matters, it’s time to settle them.”

Xu Yang muttered to himself, his eyes shifting, looking back on the past, with a touch of emotion for the old days.

Gusts start from the tip of a blade of grass, and waves form from ripples!

From a mere mortal, an old fisherman at that, to where he stands today, he has been through so much.

Dongting Lake, Green Jade Mountain, Liang Country’s Cultivation Realm, Void Spirit Cave Heaven, Northern Domain’s Great Era, minor schools beside the Southern Sea…

Walking this path with utmost caution, even if occasionally indulging in the pleasure of immediate revenge, with blood spilt within five steps, I would still have to travel far away afterward, lie low, and bide my time, leading to many entanglements of favors and enmities, and countless emotions yet unresolved.
