The Spiritual Attainment of Minghe

Chapter 398: Breakthrough

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

Within Yun Ling Mountain Range, each peak had been arranged a tactical formation and the stone tablet was the core to controlling the formations. Combining every formation of each peak would form a super formation. From Immortal Yangyu's words, this super formation could even release the power of the Supreme Realm. This was the reason why Yun Ling Academy was a formidable first-class force.

In the Land of Central Region, a half step to the Supreme Realm was the highest level of cultivation. However, no cultivators at a half step to the Supreme Realm would be able to break the tactical formation with the power of Supreme Realm, unless they could break it from the inside. This super formation was a secret and only the dean of an academy would know. This was also one of the reasons why the sky-level forces did not die out during the Battle of Gods and Demons.

But it had nothing to do with Minghe. What he pursued was the Supreme Way and not becoming a legend. He did not care whether these first-class sky-level forces would die out or not. He only had an interest in that super formation. However, it was the top secret of Yun Ling Academy. Unless he became a dean, he would have no chance to comprehend this tactical formation.

Putting aside his covetous thoughts, Minghe refined the stone tablet immediately. He went to the peak of the mountain and released the Tao-seeking Palace he had refined before. This Tao-seeking Palace had become a Half Level Spiritual Treasure of Chaos and was full of forbidden formations. Since Minghe had obtained plenty of Spiritual Inheritance of the Two Laws of Weapons and Formations, it was time to reform it.

Of course, it took time to reform the Tao-seeking Palace. Furthermore, he also needed to go into Closed Door Meditation to comprehend the Spiritual Inheritances of Two Laws of Weapons and Arrays. Though he had spent 20,000 years in Closed Door Meditation at Eastern Region, it was too short for him to totally comprehend all the Spiritual Inheritances, especially the four ready-made tactical formations. They were Minghe's strongest cards.

Minghe went to the Aura Hall to get the cultivation resources for these millions of years. Then, he went to the library. It had three floors. The first floor allowed inner disciples to enter, the second was for the core disciples and the teachers of the academy, and the third only allowed deans and Elders in.

Minghe had gained bountiful cultivation resources. He received hundreds of Yun Ling elixirs and 100,000 contributions value. Yun Ling elixirs were the signature elixirs of Yun Ling Academy and only cultivators beyond Fate Realm had the qualifications to take. However, the Yun Ling elixirs Minghe had gained were with three lines. Beyond that, there were six lines and nine lines, which could only be distributed for the cultivators who lived at the inner Peak and supreme Peak.

Though the 100,000 contributions value were lesser than what he earned in Eastern Region's Yun Ling Academy, these were still quite a great deal. After all, Eastern Region could not put on a par with Central Region. Those 100,000 contributions were enough to exchange 100 Yun Ling elixirs with three lines, or 10 with six lines, or one with nine lines. However, Minghe did not plan to exchange it for elixirs.

By comparison, Minghe preferred to exchange it for different kinds of materials to refine weapons. No matter refining weapons, tactical field or flag requires a large amount of materials. Since Minghe did not have another good way to earn contributions value, he could only use those to exchange what he really needed at present. By the time he ended his Closed Door Meditation, he intended to go to the Mission Hall and checked whether there were other tasks he could complete to earn more contributions. Or else, he could only go on refining weapons to gain them.

Back at his own peak, Minghe got in the Tao-seeking Palace immediately, starting his new Closed Door Meditation. This time, he would try his best to totally master the entire Spiritual Inheritances he had got in the Mystery Territory of Earth. Though time was meaningless for him at his level, he did not want to waste any. What he really needed was to enhance himself continuously.

At another part of the core area of the Central Region, there stood a towering peak. This peak was to the Central Region what Mount Buzhou was to Untainted Land. Clouds and fogs surround the top of the peak, where plenty of splendid palaces stood. It was like the 36 Gates of Heaven in Heavenly Court. This was another encampment of Sacred Sky Sect, a sky-level force, at the Medium Layer of Battlefield of Gods and Demons.

This peak was called Sacred Sky Peak and was divided into six layers by Sacred Sky Sect. Each layer lived a level of disciples. The first layer was the place for listed disciples, the second was for the outer disciples, the third was for inner disciples, while the top three layers were for the core disciples, Elders, and the suzerain of Sacred Sky Sect.

Within this three layers, there stood a palace named Zixiao Palace where Ancestor Hongjun lived. It was not in Untainted Land and Hongjun dared not title himself as Honourable Ancestor, so he called himself Taoist Hongjun. Now, he was an inner disciple of Sacred Sky Sect and had gained some reputation among those disciples.

In the palace, Hongjun's vital force was unsteady, with fierceful coercion aura covered the whole palace. Suddenly, this horrible force disappeared. Hongjun opened his eyes, and murmured, "My state of mind was unsteady. Is there any Fated Chance waiting for me outside?" Thinking of this, Hongjun stood up and flew out without any hesitation.

Hongjun looked down at the endless heaven and earth over the clouds without any expression but glimmers of expectations shone in his eyes. Right at this moment, he was reminded of Minghe, Laozi, and other familiar cultivators. At the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, Hongjun did not know where they had reached and who could still be his companions while pursuing the lonely way of Tao.

At a Transmitting Formation of the Lower Layer of Battlefield of God and Demon, four figures showed up in a sudden, they were Laozi, Origin, Jieyin, and Zhunti. Nowadays, the former three had reached Half Step Fate Realm, but Zhunti was only at the Peak of the Zenith Heaven Realm and seemed to had just broken through to that realm.

Laozi, Origin, and Jieyin moved forwards the Medium Layer of Battlefield of Gods and Demons and tried to find their opportunity to break into Fate Realm. Though Zhunti did not reach Half Step Fate Realm, he was unwilling to stay at the Lower Layer of Battlefield of God and Demon alone. Therefore, he had to follow the three to the Medium Layer. But nobody would know what would happen to them in the future.

At another Transmitting Formation, Tongtian and Goddess Nvywa also showed up. Both of them had reached Half Step Fate Realm. But there seemed to be no trace of Fuxi, Kunpeng, and Haotian. The three had also actualized their own Tao in Untainted Land but they were much later than the others. They could not catch up with the speed of Tongtian and Goddess Nvywa even with the good cultivating condition of Battlefield of Gods and Demons. Therefore, they had to temporarily stay at the lower layer to continue their cultivation.

Looking at the Transmitting Formation in front of them, Tongtian and Goddess Nvywa did not hesitate to go through it. When a white light flashed by, the two saw a new world waving at them. But the were unsure what would happen as compared with the lower layer, the Medium Layer of Battlefield of Gods and Demons was the real starting point of cruelty.

Whether or not they knew the situation at the Medium Layer, they had to take this step, because none of them hoped to fall behind. What they knew was that Minghe and Hongjun had surpassed them considerably. If they did not try harder now, they would be left far behind.

In the Tao-seeking Palace of Yun Ling Mountain Range, endless Spiritual Air of Heaven and Earth swarmed in with pieces of Air of the Divine Law. Minghe's body seemed to be a bottomless pit, swallowing all the Spiritual Air of Heaven and Earth and Air of the Divine Law with no signs of stopping.

Suddenly, the vital force of Minghe exploded and the Spiritual Air of Heaven and Earth stopped fluctuating and everything became silent. Minghe opened his eyes and a slight smile showed on his face. He had broken into a higher realm after his Closed Door Meditation for nearly 800,000 years. Fortunately, it was a double breakthrough this time.

Finally, Minghe broke through the bottleneck of the Middle Stage of the Fate Realm. Furthermore, his Indestructible Demon Body had also broken through its current condition and was no less powerful than his Original Spirit. With the improvements of these two parts, Minghe was confident that he could fight against a cultivator at the Late Stage of Fate Realm.

During this 800,000 years, Minghe's achievement was abundant. He had also totally comprehended the Four-pole Separation Evil Formation. With that, Minghe would not be in danger unless he came across cultivators at Half Step Supreme Realm. Besides, he had already got some ideas to remold this formation, but he still needed to collect some essential materials.

Now, it was the right time for him to find his Fated Chance. Staying out here would cost only him more time to reach the peak level. He would be better off traveling around the Central Region in the hope of meeting his Fated Chances. If not, he could also look for other things he needed.

Minghe had made this decision after he went to the library. At the Central Region, most of the area had its owners, but only four locations were shared by all the creatures, which were Starry Sky Region, Burial Land, Underworld Blood Sea, and Devil Region. The four locations were full of Fated Chances and also death, so they were called the forbidden lands of death.

The Starry Sky Region was where all the stars were located, but Starry Storms and horrifying Giant Beasts of Starry Sky would show up from time to time. Even a cultivator at Fate Realm could die easily. It was said that Burial Land was an ancient battlefield, where numerous ruins were left from the ancient time. The danger inside was also precarious.

Underworld Blood Sea was a real Blood Sea and nobody knew how it was formed. It had nourished plentiful Treasures of Heaven and Earth, attracting cultivators from all directions here. However, the weird Evil Blood Aura could erode Magic Weapons, physical bodies and even Original Spirits. One could not hold their breath long even with the protection of a Spiritual Treasure of Chaos. Once the Evil Blood Aura penetrates into one's body, he might lose his sanity and become one of the Separation Beasts of the Blood Sea.

As for Devil Region, it was the weirdest place and full of endless Air of Devil. Though those Air of Devil was tonic to the cultivators who cultivated the Way of Demon, they would also become mad if they swallowed too much and could even turn into a machine that could only kill. Though it was extremely dangerous, cultivators would scramble to this place because it could generate a precious treasure-- Sky Crystal.

All of the four forbidden lands were full of Fated Chances, so it was difficult for Minghe to decide. If he chose by instinct, he would choose Underworld Blood Sea. After all, he was born in Blood Sea. He always had an indescribable cordial feeling towards it. Furthermore, there were numerous Treasures of Heaven and Earth in there.

However, Minghe tried to analyze this issue in an objective way. There were endless treasures in Underworld Blood Sea, but so does the other places. He could not make a decision only because of the words of Blood Sea. Though he was curious about Underworld Blood Sea, he should not be hasty as there would be a chance someday. As for now, Starry Sky Region was the right place for him to go because it had everything he needed.

Before he got there, Minghe had to go to Mission Hall to check whether there was any relevant task in Starry Sky Region, so he could earn some contributions value at the same time. The 100,000 contributions he gained before was nearly used up. If he only relied on the academy's payment per million years, when would he reach the Peak Level at the Central Region?
