Chapter 254: Saint King, Resident in the God Forbidden Realm
Seeing that the Great Accomplishment Saint Body still had not fully made up his mind, Zhang Xuan smiled even more easily.
"Besides, it is all empty talk for us to think about these things now; whether this round of trading can actually succeed is still a matter of debate."
"Discussing this now is somewhat laughable; arguing here over things we haven't obtained yet is too meaningless."
The Great Accomplishment Saint Body was startled, then nodded and said, "Indeed, I have been too fixated."
"I will make a trip into the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land and hand these two scriptures to the Empress, letting her make the decision."
Zhang Xuan nodded, "Then that is settled; let us consider the matters that follow."
"Are you confident in achieving the status of Great Emperor in the shortest possible time?"
Zhang Xuan turned to look at Gai Jiuyou, who stared deeply at Zhang Xuan for a long time before answering, "Do you really not need me to wait for you?"
"If there were two Great Emperors in the world at the same time, then even someone as strong as the Emperor Venerable of the Mythological Era would likely have no way to break the brand of the Heavenly Heart Imprint."
Gai Jiuyou did not answer, but from his words, he had actually already provided a complete answer.
He could likely step into that final step at any time and place to become a supreme Great Emperor.
After all, he had no inner demons or mental knots; he was the most perfect figure among all those who had achieved Alternative Enlightenment.
"Then there is no problem."
Zhang Xuan snapped his fingers and smiled happily.
"Then let us continue our actions! I still have many plans on my side that can be implemented, one step at a time."
"No problem!"
Gai Jiuyou nodded.
"As for searching for the other four top-tier Quasi-Emperors you mentioned, I am already doing it."
As he spoke, another figure walked out from within Gai Jiuyou's body, then turned into the most brilliant light and soared into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, it rushed into the depths of the Universe and disappeared from sight.
"Dealing with the Divine Ancient Scripture will have to wait a step; this Godly Thought is very difficult to handle."
Gai Jiuyou looked at the Godly Thought of the Undying Emperor, which was in a sealed state, and for the moment, he had no way to deal with it.
Zhang Xuan, however, did not care.
After all, the complete inheritance of the Godly Spirit Ancient Scripture was within the bloodline imprint of Tianhuangzi, so there was absolutely no need to worry about other issues.
If the Godly Thought could not be handled, there were other directions to pursue.
Now there were other problems that Zhang Xuan needed to consider.
Just by standing here for a while, Zhang Xuan felt his cultivation base constantly growing.
The rules between heaven and earth seemed to be constantly drilling into his body and into his mind.
During this time of conversation, Zhang Xuan already felt that the threshold of the Saint Seventh Heaven could no longer be suppressed, and he rushed past it to the Eighth Heaven.
Then, after Zhang Xuan took the time to replenish an Origin, he rushed to the Ninth Heaven.
Then, various Origins were completely absorbed by him; the Origins of the Cang Tian Tyrant Body, the God King Body, and other unique, powerful constitutions from within the Bitter Sea of Lingbao Heavenly Venerable all merged into his body.
Previously, Zhang Xuan had top-tier physiques around him, but he could not break through to a higher level all at once, not because he could not absorb them, but because his own comprehension was insufficient and not quite enough.
He wanted to polish them in detail, to do better, or rather, to do the best.
Now, he could easily achieve this; the comprehension of two Saint Spirits was added to him alone, making him feel that he was in a state of enlightenment at any time and place.
He did not even make any exaggerated movements; just as they were discussing, Gai Jiuyou and the Great Accomplishment Saint Body suddenly fell silent.
Because in the process of chatting, Zhang Xuan had naturally stepped into the God Forbidden realm, and his entire primordial spirit and physical body were sublimated in this process.
"This..."
Both figures were surprised, but a moment later, they both felt that this situation was a matter of course.
A peerless figure from the Foreign Realm, or rather, from the Immortal Domain.
What was strange about stepping into the God Forbidden realm at any time? Perhaps there were even higher realms in the Immortal Realm.
Originally, Gai Jiuyou and the Great Accomplishment Saint Body were unwilling to believe in the so-called Immortal Domain or that figures from the Immortal Domain were a cut above.
Only after seeing Zhang Xuan did they truly feel that figures from the Immortal Domain might indeed be a cut above and extraordinary.
Because Zhang Xuan was too special.
He was already special enough before, reaching the Saint Realm in two years, breaking the cultivation record of all time.
And this time, after waking up from his enlightenment, it was even more astonishing and exaggerated.
He had actually stepped into the God Forbidden realm while chatting.
Then they just watched as Zhang Xuan step by step cultivated the Saint Realm to perfection, while absorbing multiple powerful Origins.
Finally, he nodded at them.
"Pause for a moment, I'm going out to undergo a tribulation."
The two figures said nothing more, watching as Zhang Xuan took a step and rushed into the Universe.
Undergoing the tribulation in the starry sky of the Universe outside Beidou Gu Xing, endless thunder danced wildly, but Zhang Xuan, who was in a special state, was not flustered at all.
He displayed various top-tier divine arts and techniques, dealing with it step by step.
In the end, he transformed into a boundless black hole, swallowing all the boundless thunder in one gulp.
For a normal person, crossing three barriers at once, or even four, to undergo a tribulation would definitely be the most terrifying thunder and Heavenly Tribulation, but for Zhang Xuan, it was still acceptable.
He stood under the starry sky, and the Essence of countless stars merged into his body.
At the same time, on the surface of his body, strands of Origin from the Cang Tian Tyrant Body, the God King Body, and even the Great Accomplishment Saint Body merged into him.
This allowed his realm to sublimate to perfection in the shortest possible time, directly charging to the Saint King Third Heaven.
Even in this process, in order to further replenish his realm and magic power.
Zhang Xuan leisurely took out a mass of sixth-turn Strongest Bloodline Evolution Fluid and swallowed it in one gulp.
Both the Great Accomplishment Saint Body and Gai Jiuyou could see that what Zhang Xuan lacked was not the relevant comprehension and laws.
All he needed was to perfect his Dharma Body and level within this realm at the fastest possible speed.
It was precisely such actions and movements that were exceptionally astonishing.
"He is already recovering continuously."
Gai Jiuyou spoke only after staring for a long time, and the Great Saint Body on the other side was also silent.
"His existence, his cultivation time, and his speed have already broken the records of all ages.
"And looking at it now, his future cultivation speed will be even more astonishing; he will not become slower like others, but instead will become faster and faster.
"Judging by this level, I can understand why he is not worried about being unable to become a Great Emperor in the future.
"The curse that has plagued this world for ages is perhaps not a major difficulty for him."
The Great Saint Body had lived for too many years, and even given his situation, he could say this.
He had seen all kinds of situations throughout the ages, but he truly had never seen a situation like Zhang Xuan's.
When Zhang Xuan returned leisurely from the cosmic galaxy, having broken through five levels of the realm in succession, as if it were as easy as eating and drinking.
Gai Jiuyou nodded.
"Next, let's continue at the previous pace; there is no need for too many questions, just continue your closed-door cultivation."
Zhang Xuan nodded.
Reaching the realm of Saint King, he had even more insights and realizations in his heart.
His understanding of the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art and the Indestructible Heavenly Art became deeper, reaching another level.
"The path I had originally determined to take has no major problems; the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art swallows the ten thousand Daos of heaven and earth, which is why it is hated by heaven and earth.
"But after I swallow the ten thousand Daos, I can use the special techniques within the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art to keep all the principles and mysteries within my body.
"If I continue to cultivate this way, the problems will not be great; I can form one Dao Fruit after another within my body.
"Then, when I reach a sufficiently profound realm, I will not seek the Heavenly Heart Imprint, but instead use my own body to mend the heavens and merge my body with the Dao.
"In the world of the First World Supreme, heaven and earth are themselves perfect and flawless, so one can directly become perfect and flawless during this process.
"And the Zhetian Great Universe is also considered flawless, but at the same time, the Zhetian Great Universe and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths have intricate connections with the Chaotic Ancient and Immortal Ancient eras, so there are many possibilities to operate on this step.
"After I merge my body with the Dao, I can make the Great Dao of this world continuously perfect; after all, those on the Other Shore in the world of the First World Supreme are considered the highest authority controllers of heaven and earth.
"They can act on heaven and earth as they please, and if I do this step, it is also possible; no one in heaven and earth will compete with me.
"What is the Heavenly Heart Imprint? A true brave person directly obtains the highest authority of the entire heaven and earth, rather than the so-called one Dao suppressing ten thousand Daos.
"I want to be that high and mighty one, the master of the entire heaven and earth.
"When I am present, when I appear, heaven and earth will cheer for me.
"I am the Lord of Heaven and Earth!"
Zhang Xuan's gaze was crystalline and bright.
During the time he was thinking, more rules of heaven and earth merged into his body, and the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art, which had not had much movement since reaching the Outer Scene level, was continuously perfected.
The Inner Heaven and Earth and the Outer Heaven and Earth merged, echoing each other, and silently he stepped into the peak level of the Outer Scene.
Then, after a slight pause, the many Daos and principles of the Zhetian World intertwined and submerged into Zhang Xuan's body, forming a golden body.
Dharma Body achieved!
The Dharma Body itself requires an understanding of the Great Dao of the entire heaven and earth, and the more heaven and earth Great Daos absorbed, the better; this aspect happens to fit the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art.
The Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art can be said to absorb the most essential and special Daos of the entire heaven and earth into the body.
"This feeling is truly comfortable; breaking through is as simple as eating and drinking, and if it weren't for the fact that I want to further polish my body so that the realm is perfect and flawless, I could have broken through to an even higher and faster level."
Zhang Xuan could not help but shake his head and sigh, feeling for the first time how comfortable and at ease it is to have extraordinary comprehension.
Even while cultivating, countless ideas could bloom in his mind.
This is simply not just heaven feeding him; it is heaven shaping Zhang Xuan into the appearance Zhang Xuan wants according to his own ideas.
One after another, the Origins submerged into Zhang Xuan's body; they were all the once-supreme physiques of this world, and absorbing them caused Zhang Xuan's realm to rise further.
But after reaching a certain level, Zhang Xuan frowned slightly.
"Not quite enough."
Now he had the top physiques in his hands: Cang Tian Tyrant Body, Great Saint Body, God King Body, Taishang Dao Body...
Each physique was once a supreme physique, and after truly reaching the peak, one could compete in the universe; they were in the top ten of the strongest, and even at their worst, they would not fall out of the top fifty.
It can be said that they are truly the most top-tier physiques, but at this step, there is also a small problem.
"The Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art is not picky about anything, and it is claimed that one can reach the strongest level by swallowing the physiques of all kings.
"For previous practitioners of the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art, it was most difficult to obtain the Origin of a person with a supreme physique.
"Later, Yaoguang Shengzi could not be perfect, and it is suspected that he lacked the Origin of the Saint Body lineage.
"He had collected almost all of the other thousands or even tens of thousands of strange Origins."
"For me, the situation is the opposite."
Zhang Xuan looked at the Cang Tian Tyrant Body, Great Saint Body, Taishang Dao Body, God King Body... in the Red Packet sent by his alt account.
The corners of his mouth could not help but twitch; the supreme physiques not only had powerful Origins, but they were also experts in the Great Saint Realm, and there was even a Great Saint Body.
It can be said that throughout the ages, no one who practiced the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art has had such a luxurious lineup; even the Ruthless Great Emperor could not have had such an exaggeratedly luxurious lineup at the beginning.
"This is good, but while the purity can be called the best in the world, it is not broad enough.
"It's still a bit lacking; at most, I can reach the eighth heaven of the Saint King, and if I want to go further, if I want to have no regrets or flaws, I still need to be more complete."
Zhang Xuan muttered while holding his chin.
He had some thoughts in his heart; now it can be considered a golden age.
Various supreme physiques are appearing, and if he wants to, gathering the Origins capable of practicing the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art is enough.
"But the cultivation strength of this group of people is too weak now, and my current status is also very high; if I go around killing indiscriminately, I don't feel anything, but my persona would collapse a bit.
"The Great Saint Body and Gai Jiuyou would probably mutter about me behind my back."
Zhang Xuan scratched his head in a bit of distress; originally, he was someone who didn't shy away from anything, wanting to get his hands on everything.
But now that his persona had been set to such a high level of prestige, he felt a bit embarrassed to do many things.
Moreover, he didn't want to bully those few small-fry.
His cultivation speed was too fast; right now, the Golden Generation hadn't even stepped into the Saint Realm, and their Origin hadn't truly transformed, so they were of no use to him at all.
"With my current realm and strength, at the very least I should be fighting Saints; otherwise, I'd feel a bit awkward. How about I sweep through the Ancient Myriad Tribes?"
Zhang Xuan muttered in a low voice, then shook his head again.
The Ancient Myriad Tribes possessed Extreme Dao Imperial Weapons, and there were also Great Saints; if he went to sweep through them directly now, it wouldn't quite work out.
Furthermore, if he went around killing indiscriminately, it would affect the overall plan, which wouldn't be very good.
While he was lost in these random thoughts, Old Madman walked in from the outside covered in blood, and upon seeing Zhang Xuan, Old Madman was also taken aback.
"You've already reached the Saint King Realm, and you've walked so far?"
Zhang Xuan saw the youthful Old Madman, was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face.
"You've come at just the right time; I was just fretting, and now I've thought of a solution."
PS: My lower back hurt so much yesterday that I couldn't stand up straight; it happened all of a sudden.
I lay in bed for a whole day, it was simply torture.
My apologies!
