Chapter 1263

When he shattered the fourth heavenly dao shackle, boundless power suddenly surged within his body, instantly doubling his strength, his magic power reaching one hundred billion cycles.

That is, six hundred and forty-eight billion years.

This is the magic power accumulated by a Great Luo Jinxian over one hundred billion cycles—undoubtedly formidable.

Precisely at this moment, his strength broke through the Great Luo limit, reaching the Precise Saint realm.

Precise Saint is a minor realm between Great Luo and Hun Yuan Great Luo.

It may seem not to qualify as a formal realm, but that is not true.

The path between Great Luo and Hun Yuan is too long—so long that countless Precise Saints across the myriad worlds spend their entire lives stuck in this realm.

This realm is divided into thirty-six layers, each step a new heavenly barrier.

Each layer is a chasm compared to the previous one; breaking through is as hard as climbing to heaven, hence it is called the Thirty-Six Layers of Precise Saint.

If one wishes to advance in this realm solely through accumulating magic power, the horizon is utterly invisible.

Accumulating magic power to break through this realm is what is known as proving the Dao through force.

It is too difficult!

Anyone who reaches this realm is terrified by the difficulty of proving the Dao through force.

Thus, across the myriad worlds, some always seek shortcuts—either seizing the heavenly dao's primordial source or fusing primordial spiritual treasures to enhance their cultivation base.

This is unavoidable.

If they relied solely on their own cultivation, even primordial divine demons with the fastest cultivation speed would find it a hopeless endeavor.

Zhang Taixuan's magic power surged, stabilizing his realm; upon checking, he realized he was only at the first layer of Precise Saint.

Though his magic power was vast, far exceeding that of an ordinary Precise Saint first layer, and his combat power terrifying, it could not change the fact that his realm was still low.

Thirty-six layers—enough for him to climb for a very long time.

"There are still five shackles left—I wonder if breaking the remaining five will let me become a Heavenly Dao entity?"

Zhang Taixuan stared at the heavenly dao shackles, thought for a moment, and directly gave up.

He had already pushed himself to the limit with the fourth shackle; breaking the fifth within a short time was utterly impossible.

"Forget it, I'll focus on accumulating magic power later."

He shook his head and returned to Great Luo Heaven.

He opened the chat group; at this moment, the group was in an uproar.

Su Xiao: "Aaaah, hasn't Brother Taixuan returned yet?"

Huang Rong: "Not yet—how could it be that fast? Your husband was previously a Great Luo; now he's likely a Precise Saint. His cultivation time will only grow longer."

Su Xiao: "Why isn't he a Saint, Huang Rong sister? Are you looking down on Brother Taixuan!? 【wicked smile】"

Xiao Yan: "Speechless. Do you think Saints are that easy to cultivate?"

Xiao Yan: "Exactly! If the Hun Yuan Great Luo realm were that easy to reach, legends wouldn't have people fighting to the death over the Hong Meng purple qi."

Qi Tian Da Sheng: "Master has attained enlightenment—how wonderful! Now I have a backer."

Zhang Taixuan: "What? Wasn't I already your backer?"

Qi Tian Da Sheng: "Greetings, Master! Forgive this disciple's transgression. 【kneeling and bowing】"

Su Xiao: "You're back! Brother Taixuan, what realm are you in now?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Precise Saint first layer, junior."

Yang Jian: "Precise Saint first layer?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Precise Saint, totaling thirty-six layers, each layer a heavenly barrier—extremely hard to break through. I originally had one hundred billion cycles of Great Luo magic power; now I have ten billion cycles of Precise Saint magic power, yet I still haven't broken into the second layer."

Su Xiao: "Brother Taixuan, you've been sneaking extra training! How did your magic power suddenly surge so much—hundred billion cycles, thousands of billions of years? Did you activate a space-time technique to cultivate? But that doesn't make sense."

Su Xiao: "Can space-time techniques even do that?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Space-time techniques certainly don't have that function. Activating space-time techniques to cultivate consumes enormous magic power. The faster you cultivate, the more magic power you expend maintaining the technique—it's utterly inefficient. Of course, below Great Luo, there's no such restriction—after all, cultivators below Great Luo are too weak to affect time. As long as one has a primordial space-time spiritual treasure, it can still be used for cultivation."

Su Xiao: "You still haven't explained how you suddenly got so strong! I'm so impatient!"

Zhang Taixuan: "Don't rush—I haven't finished speaking yet."

It can still be used for cultivation.

Su Xiao: "You haven't told me how you suddenly got stronger yet! I'm so impatient!"

Zhang Taixuan: "Don't rush me. Haven't I finished speaking yet?"
