1751 The Trinity Flowers Merge, Ascending to the Five Qi Realm? The Inner Universe
Curse techniques were one of the most commonly used techniques in the Nether King Tribe.
As one of the G.o.d Kings from the Nether King Tribe, it was no surprise that the Nether Spirit G.o.d King was well-versed in that technique.
Furthermore, his curse would not only affect the soul but the victim’s body as well. The Cursed Body Totem was one of his most skilled Curse Techniques!
During his time, no one could survive the curse. Hence, even though the Nether Spirit G.o.d King felt that Chu Kuangren was an extraordinary cultivator, he did not think the latter would be an exception to the effects of that technique.
!!
That proved to be true… until Chu Kuangren took out a sword.
It was a black metal sword with several mysterious runes carved on it.
The moment Chu Kuangren stabbed the sword at the Cursed Body Totem, the cursed technique that the Nether Spirit G.o.d King had always been proud of immediately broke!
“How… How is this possible?!”
The Nether Spirit G.o.d King was dumbfounded.
He had spent countless years researching and developing that Cursed Body Totem technique, and no one had ever got rid of it. Yet, Chu Kuangren managed to destroy it effortlessly with a swing of his metal sword.
He was as shocked as when he learned that Chu Kuangren possessed a Twenty-first Grade Soul Flower earlier.
“This is impossible. How did you do it? What kind of sword is that?”
The Nether Spirit G.o.d King looked at Chu Kuangren in disbelief.
However, Chu Kuangren did not reply to him. By then, the Nether Spirit G.o.d King’s soul energy was close to dissipating completely, and he would never get the answer to that question.
Boom!
The Nether Spirit G.o.d King’s soul form exploded, leaving behind a black cube on the ground.
“Is this the Nether Spirit G.o.d King’s inheritance?” Chu Kuangren mumbled as he kept the Cursebreaker Sword.
The Cursebreaker Sword was a G.o.d-tier item he received from the Fantasy Roulette back then, and it was used to get rid of curses.
It was powerful enough to remove the curse of the Supreme Overlord Soul from the Pan Gu Universe, let alone the Nether Spirit G.o.d King’s curse. The Nether Spirit G.o.d King had chosen the wrong method to deal with Chu Kuangren from the very beginning.
With that, Chu Kuangren walked toward the black cube. As soon as he picked it up, countless pieces of information flooded his mind.
Those were the Nether Spirit G.o.d King’s cultivation experiences and all his soul cultivation techniques.
Besides that, the black cube was known as the Demonic Soul Cube. It contained a portion of the Nether Spirit G.o.d King’s cultivation essence, and any cultivator who refined that item could rapidly strengthen their soul energy.
Compared to those cultivation techniques, the Demonic Cube was what Chu Kuangren needed the most.
“With this Demonic Soul Cube, my soul energy should hopefully reach the Twenty-fourth Grade.”
Chu Kuangren smiled with satisfaction. Then, he looked at the Nether Spirit Forest Realm, which had started crumbling, and left in a flash.
By then, the Nether King Tribe cultivators had left the forest realm’s entrance.
Somewhere outside the forest realm, Wu Tianming continued observing the situation from a distance.
When he saw the forest realm crumbling, he could not help but sigh, feeling a little disappointed. “What a shame. If only I could obtain the Nether Spirit G.o.d King’s inheritance, it would be a great benefit to me.”
Although he missed his opportunity to obtain the inheritance, he was still delighted to see that a great enemy like Chu Kuangren was killed.
That was right. In his opinion, Chu Kuangren should be dead inside the Nether Spirit Forest Realm.
After all, that was the Nether Spirit G.o.d King’s territory. Seeing that he was going to kill Chu Kuangren at all costs, no matter how powerful Chu Kuangren was, he was not his match in soul cultivation.
“Heavenly Sword, although you’re dead, you truly are an opponent worthy to be remembered.”
“I’ll forever remember your– What?!”
Just when Wu Tianming was lamenting the loss of a powerful opponent, he suddenly saw a white-robed figure slowly walking out from the crumbling Nether Spirit Forest Realm.
Who else could that person be if not the Heavenly Sword?
At that instant, Wu Tianming was stunned!
‘Is the Heavenly Sword still alive?!’
However, as soon as Chu Kuangren turned to look at Wu Tianming, the latter gasped before he immediately turned and fled.
The other Nether King Tribe cultivators beside him were a little speechless.
‘Weren’t you mourning the loss of an opponent earlier? Yet, the moment you saw him, you immediately turned and fled?’
‘And you call yourself his opponent?’
Everyone else shared the same thought but did not dare to say it out loud. That was because they, too, had turned around and fled!
Like Wu Tianming, they feared Chu Kuangren as well.
“Impossible! This is impossible!”
“Why didn’t the Nether Spirit G.o.d King kill the Heavenly Sword? Could he not kill the Heavenly Sword too?”
“Does that mean… Has the Heavenly Sword taken his inheritance?”
Wu Tianming thought about it while he escaped. His expression turned grim and terrifying.
He did not know how long he ran for, but after making sure that he escaped from Chu Kuangren, he stopped in his tracks. By then, he was drenched in sweat.
Was he that afraid of the Heavenly Sword?
“D*mn it. Does that mean even the Nether Spirit G.o.d King can’t kill him? It looks like I’ll have to think of another way.”
Wu Tianming pondered and suddenly remembered a cursed technique from his tribe.
It was a forbidden curse technique that could make anyone fall into madness and kill them if they were not careful cultivating it.
However, to be able to match the Heavenly Sword in power, he had no other choice left but to do it.
“Instead of living in the Heavenly Sword’s shadow forever, I might as well take this risk and try. Just wait, Heavenly Sword. I shall make you pay tenfold for all the humiliation and disgrace you’ve inflicted upon me!” Wu Tianming said gravely.
Somewhere far away, Chu Kuangren looked toward the direction Wu Tianming fled. As the latter was already too far away from him, Chu Kuangren did not bother to give chase.
Besides, he had more important things to do now, which was to refine the Demonic Soul Cube right away and raise his Soul Flower to the Twenty-fourth Grade.
Then, he could break through to the Five Qi Arch Gilded Immortal Realm!
With that thought in mind, he found a secluded place on the Ancient Central Heaven Planet. After placing numerous seals and restrictions around the area, Chu Kuangren started refining the Demonic Soul Cube.
It was quite a smooth process for him.
Soon, the power of his Soul Flower successfully reached the same grade as the other two of his Trinity Flowers!
Inside an empty dimension somewhere, Chu Kuangren was sitting with his legs crossed, and three gorgeous flowers bloomed above his head. Each of them had twenty-four petals!
Those were his Immortal’s Core Flower, Life’s Core Flower, and Soul Flower!
“Alright. Once I merge the three flowers, I can attempt to ascend to the Five Qi realm!”
“How powerful will I become once I merge these three unprecedented Twenty-fourth Grade flowers, I wonder?”
Chu Kuangren was a little curious.
The Five Qi realm had five different qi. They were Taiyi, Taichu, Tais.h.i.+, Taisu, and Taichi respectively!
That was what the Five Qi realm entailed.
The five different qi represented five stages of a universe’s formation and growth.
When the Trinity Flowers merged, their immense energies would be used to open up an Inner Universe within the cultivator’s body.
At that time, his Inner Universe was still in an undivided state of yin and yang. However, it was here that the first qi, the Taichi Qi, would be formed.
Building on the Taichi Qi’s power, the cultivator would need to continue progressing the universe’s evolution. It meant that the cultivator had to advance the universe through the Taisu, Tais.h.i.+, Taichu, and Taiyi stages in its order, forming the four remaining qi.
Once the five qis were present, the Inner Universe would mature, meaning the user had achieved the Great Perfected Arch Gilded Immortal Realm!
“Let’s begin,” Chu Kuangren mumbled.
With a thought from his mind, the Trinity Flowers above him entered his body, where they began to swirl and merge inside him.
Boom!
The instant his Trinity Flowers merged, an incomparably terrifying energy instantly erupted!
An unprecedented change was happening inside his body as the three Twenty-fourth Grade flowers merged. It was something the universe had never seen before.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As if a new world was born, the Sea of Chi that Chu Kuangren used to store his Immortal’s Core energy began to expand at an exponential rate, creating an Inner Universe!
