Chapter 530: Chapter 369: Moonlight Immortal Ancestor
In an instant, Chu Zheng completely took control of the host’s body.
Using the body as a medium, the operation of the Qi-refining Technique had no shackles anymore, and the speed of absorbing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was extremely astonishing.
This time, Chu Zheng’s cultivation method was entirely different from before. He didn’t worry about the spiritual energy entering the body too quickly causing damage to the body or consider any foundation. He used a near-drenching method to forcibly elevate the host’s cultivation.
A large amount of spiritual energy poured in, quickly causing the meridians and the dantian to crack, and the body manifested numerous fractures with the abundant Essence Qi endlessly leaking out.
Supported by the repair panel, the cracked meridians instantly healed, forcibly locking the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi within the body.
The Armor Demon’s affinity with nature’s spiritual energy, coupled with the existence of the Qi-refining Technique, caused an extremely fierce transformation.
In the blink of an eye, the host’s body had completed the Hundred Days Spiritual Transformation, and the bones in the limbs shone with a jade-like luster.
One day later, Chu Zheng had already pushed the host’s cultivation to the Qi Refining Second Realm, reaching the Jade Bone stage.
Three days later, the host had condensed the Dao Embryo.
On the fourteenth day of merging with the host, Chu Zheng increased the host’s cultivation to the Fourth Realm, the Golden Core Realm.
With the massive infusion of spiritual energy, the forcibly compressed and flushed Golden Core had only four apertures, barely considered middle-quality, but it was enough.
In just half a month, Chu Zheng made a living creature ascend to the heavens in one step, transforming from a mortal to a Fourth Order being capable of destroying cities and nations at will.
The Golden Core Realm is equivalent to the Immortal Path Divine Infant, already worthy of being called a Great Power, possessing Great Divine Skills of moving mountains and filling seas.
Upon entering this realm, the increase in cultivation significantly slowed down.
However, at this speed, it would take at most a hundred years to cross into the Heavenly Immortal Realm, which was quite astonishing.
The only pity was that this was the host’s cultivation, not representing Chu Zheng’s own order, but it was of no matter.
The Armor Demon’s strength order was difficult to determine, and spiritual energy was hard to retain, so the main combat power had to rely on the host.
Half-day Spiritual Transformation, three-day Jade Bone, half-month Golden Core; at this progress, even if the current host died in the tribulation, he could find the next host and start over.
Of course, the premise was that this method of transforming tribulation would be effective.
With the Golden Core helping to sort the spiritual energy entering the body, the state of the flesh body soon began to stabilize.
The man slowly opened his eyes, looking at the black armor wrapping around him and the surging Yuan Qi within his body, feeling momentarily disoriented.
After a while, he lowered his head, muttering to himself:
“Am I now… called ‘Chu Zheng’?”
“Yes.”
A voice came from the depth of his heart, directly reaching the mind.
“Whatever I want to do now, you will help me?”
The man only felt his throat dry and asked with difficulty:
“If I want to become the ruler of a country?”
“You already have the power to do whatever you want. How long you can live depends on your luck.”
The Armor Demon coexists with the host. As long as the host is a living creature, apart from leaving the host, Chu Zheng could only affect a very small part.
Soon, his main body was about to go to the battlefield, a matter of life and death, requiring most of his energy to be focused on the main body, with no room for mistakes.
Therefore, after this, Chu Zheng would not interfere much in the host’s free activities.
His only purpose was to transform tribulation; he didn’t want to bother with anything else.
When an ordinary creature suddenly gains the power to change the world, the extreme imbalance can only lead to great disaster.
After leaving the Mass Burial Mound, the man immediately sought revenge, annihilating an entire army, killing more than a thousand.
His homeland had been completely shattered; the village was turned into scorched earth, leaving behind only remnants and ashes.
After wandering alone for months, he began to test the limits of the energy hidden in his body, becoming increasingly unrestrained in his actions.
In just half a month, with his own strength, he conquered a small country, became its ruler, established a new era, and ruled over miles of rivers and mountains.
Chu Zheng had no intention of interfering with the process. Once he confirmed that the Tribulation Qi had fluctuated, he gradually retracted his Divine Sense.
……
……
Cangyun Realm.
In the blink of an eye, two years had passed.
During this time, Chu Zheng’s avatar traveled across the Four Domains and Five Seas of Cangyun, and even turned over the territory belonging to the Cangyun Secret Realm twice, but with little to show.
Although he found some traces left by Ancient Era Qi Cultivators, they were of little use; just a few Qi Refining Heart Methods and some cultivation insights—overall, not very useful.
During this period, Chu Zheng did discover many fragments of high-grade treasures, but, as before, he did not see any fragments above the Ninth Order.
Wondrous treasures of that level wouldn’t be so easily damaged. Even if damaged, unless the breakage was too severe, they would slowly repair themselves by absorbing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, making them hard to find.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Chu Zheng retracted his wandering Divine Sense avatar, found Fu Quanliang, gave a few instructions, and prepared to leave.
Song Lingqing was still in secluded cultivation. Chu Zheng sent a message and waited a moment. Receiving no reply, he did not wait any longer and tore open the void, heading straight out of the Cangyun Realm.
Time was tight, and if he did not hurry, he might delay arriving at the Boundary.
Upon leaving the realm, Chu Zheng saw Xi Ling again, still dressed in blue, with ink-black hair like clouds, and eyes with restrained brilliance, looking very peaceful.
“Fellow Daoist Xi, it seems we meet again by fate.”
Chu Zheng clasped his hands in a salute, preparing to leave. There was nothing much to discuss between him and Xi Ling.
“Inspector, please wait.”
Xi Ling spoke softly, with a hint of doubt in his expression:
“May I ask if the Inspector has been searching for something in the Cangyun Realm during these two years? Do you need my assistance?”
“Fellow Daoist Xi misunderstands.”
Chu Zheng had no intention of explaining and didn’t take Xi Ling’s words seriously, replying perfunctorily:
“The battlefield is dangerous. I might not return again, so I just wanted to see the mountains and rivers of my homeland carefully.”
In these two years, his actions were impossible to conceal from Xi Ling’s eyes. If he truly wanted to help, he would have intervened long ago.
Hearing this, Xi Ling’s eyes flashed slightly. He did not ask further, bowing slightly:
“May our Immortal Path be ever prosperous, the Immortal Alliance victorious, and the Inspector return home in glory.”
Chu Zheng said no more, returned the salute, and tore the space barrier, stepping into the cosmic void.
Staring into the void, Xi Ling was silent for a while. He raised his hand, compiling Chu Zheng’s actions over these two years into a detailed message, sending it across the starry sky.
……
……
Using the Boundary Wheel, the speed of travel was extremely fast.
Just a day later, Chu Zheng had already crossed the Endless Star Domain, reaching the Heaven Pass where he first arrived.
Before even entering the pass, Chu Zheng was stopped by a woman.
“You must be Chu Zheng?”
The woman glanced at Chu Zheng, her eyebrows slightly raised, showing a bit of interest. She took out a jade scroll, her tone slightly raised:
“A hand decree from Moonlight Immortal Ancestor.”
