Chapter 338: Offering Oneself, Advancing to the Late Stage of Nascent Soul
"Withered Glory Profound Light Art!"
"This must be the Withered Glory Profound Light Art of a Human Race Deity Transformation sect from the Ancient Era."
"But wasn't this Deity Transformation sect destroyed long ago? How is it that someone has obtained the Kurong Sect inheritance even now?"
At this very moment, Jiao Wuwei was simply driven mad with rage.
Especially seeing the death of the three Deity Transformation-level Jiaolong, he was simply itching to hack Zhou Sui into ten thousand pieces.
One must know, this was one of the trump cards of the Jiaolong Clan.
It would not be used unless it was a critical moment.
Once used, it would surely settle the outcome.
But now, it had actually been resolved with ease by this Human, Zhou Sui.
This simply ruined the Jiaolong Clan's plans of many years and would cause the Jiaolong Clan heavy losses.
However, he also instantly recognized this as a supreme divine ability from the Kurong Sect.
After all, back in the Ancient Era, it was a Cultivator of the Kurong Sect who took action and resolved this secret technique of the Jiaolong Clan, which led to the Jiaolong Clan suffering heavy losses and retreating from the Immortal Cultivation World.
He had originally thought that as time passed and the Kurong Sect was destroyed by demons, no one should be able to learn this divine ability technique anymore.
But who could have imagined that there would actually be someone who inherited the Kurong Sect's legacy.
And even learned this supreme divine ability.
It can only be said that this Human Cultivator is simply the nemesis of the Demon Race.
Ever since this guy appeared, the Demon Race's plans have been obstructed at every turn.
Not a single day has gone smoothly.
But now, no matter what, failure is failure, and it can no longer be undone.
"Go, leave quickly."
Jiao Wuwei shouted loudly, immediately issuing the order to retreat to the fourth-tier Demon Cultivators in the surroundings.
He knew that there was no longer any hope of defeating the Human Race this time.
Even though he had a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure in his hand, how could he possibly beat that monster of a Human?
If they continued to fight like this, they would all be left here.
If they retreated at this very moment, even if they would suffer heavy losses.
At the very least, they would preserve a large number of fresh troops.
In this way, they would still have a chance to occupy the Canglan Sea; they couldn't possibly be wiped out entirely.
Whoosh!
But just at this moment, Zhou Sui had long been keeping his eyes on every move of Jiao Wuwei; how could he let this Jiaolong escape?
If it really ran away, he feared that in the future he would be watched by this enemy at every moment, unable to eat or sleep in peace.
No matter what, he would not allow this Jiaolong to escape.
Immediately, he activated the Teleportation Gu and arrived beside Jiao Wuwei in an instant.
Execution Immortal Sword Formula!
Holding a Flying Sword in his hand, he channeled the Execution Immortal Sword Formula, and a terrifying sword light erupted.
This was the Execution Immortal Sword Light, containing a fearsome intent to slaughter demons.
It was the convergence of the killing intent of countless souls between heaven and earth who had been killed by the Demon Race.
The power within it was simply sensational.
Moreover, it was especially effective at restraining the Demon Race.
When encountering the Demon Race, the power of this sword light would double.
"Oh no!"
How could Jiao Wuwei have imagined that even at a time like this, this shameless Human was still fixated on him.
Because Zhou Sui's speed was simply too fast, so fast that he couldn't react at all.
Even if he wanted to use the power of the Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure now, it was already too late.
Boom~~
In an instant, this sword struck Jiao Wuwei solidly; the terrifying sword light sliced down, as simple as chopping melons and vegetables, instantly cutting his hundred-zhang-long Jiaolong body into two halves.
A large amount of blood sprayed out, seemingly forming a rain of blood.
At the same time, the terrifying Execution Immortal Sword Intent instantly destroyed the demon soul within him, leaving him without even a chance for soul possession.
This sword light even swept outward.
In the distance, one mountain after another was instantly split in two, and even the earth was torn open, stretching for over a thousand kilometers.
One can imagine that the power of this sword was terrifying beyond measure.
"Bad, Lord Wuwei is dead, killed by this Human with a single sword strike."
"Flee, hurry and flee, we have completely lost this battle."
"Damned Human, we will definitely make a comeback."
"Abominable Human Cultivator Zhou Sui, we will remember you; this hatred is irreconcilable."
"Sooner or later, we will annihilate the Human Race and avenge this blood feud."
The numerous fourth-tier Demon Cultivators were both shocked and furious.
But after seeing Jiao Wuwei killed by a single sword strike, they also completely lost their courage.
They no longer had the heart to fight against the Human Cultivator.
One by one, they fled toward the distance, not daring to fight the Human Cultivator head-on at all.
Anyone who slowed down for even a second would be caught up to by Zhou Sui and killed with a single sword strike.
"Chase, chase them down, beat the drowning dog."
Seeing this situation, many Human Race Nascent Soul Cultivators were simply ecstatic.
They were incapable of fighting an uphill battle, but they were naturally extremely welcoming of a downhill battle and were very skilled at beating a drowning dog.
At this moment, they successively took out their own Life-Bound Spirit Treasures and talismans, attempting to keep these Fourth-tier Beasts here completely.
As long as they killed one, they would count it as a huge profit.
…………
Half a day later.
Following the last monster beast falling into a pool of blood, the Human Race coalition forces could be considered to have won completely, and the Demon Race had all been routed.
Mingguang Island naturally returned to the control of the Human Race as well.
At this very moment, everyone also arrived in Jiaolong City; this city was also controlled by Human Race Cultivators.
Many monster beasts lay in pools of blood.
"It's a pity, to think some Fourth-tier Beasts actually escaped."
Tiansuan Daoren said with some regret.
He had originally wanted to catch all the monster beasts on this island in one net and finish them off without leaving a single one.
But the speed at which these monster beasts fled was truly too fast.
Even though the Human Race Nascent Soul Cultivators chased and killed them frantically, some still escaped in the end, and they did not annihilate all the monster beasts.
"Don't be so greedy; the result is already quite good."
"Most of the Tier 4 Upper Grade monster beasts were finished off by us."
"The ones that escaped were only some Fourth-Tier Low-Grade monster beasts, not worth fearing."
"Of course, the most important thing is that the Ancient Demon Conversion Array was also completely destroyed by us."
"Within the next hundred years, it is impossible for the Demon Race to set up a similar array again."
Chongxu Daoren laughed heartily; he stroked his graying beard, clearly feeling incomparably satisfied.
Originally, he had felt that in this battle, the Human Race would definitely suffer heavy casualties and would certainly pay a heavy price.
But looking at it now, the Human Race did not lose too many Nascent Soul Cultivators.
Instead, it was the Demon Race that was routed.
Not only did they lose two Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures, but many Tier 4 Upper Grade Demon Cultivators also died.
Even the powerful Ancient Demon World would likely feel pained by this defeat.
It would not be so easy to organize a similar scale again.
"Everything must be credited to Daoist Zhou."
"If it weren't for Daoist Zhou stepping forward."
"I'm afraid our operation this time would have been a one hundred percent failure."
"Wuji Old Ghost, you really found a good son-in-law."
Sunset Sect Sect Master Yuyang Daoist said with much emotion.
Thinking of what had just happened, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
If Zhou Sui hadn't emerged out of nowhere, the Human Race of the Canglan Sea might have ceased to exist this time.
Once they were defeated, the Canglan Sea would surely be the world of the Demon Race.
"Haha, no need to tell me, my son-in-law is naturally formidable."
Wuji Daoren laughed heartily, feeling very joyful.
"Fellow Daoists are too kind; I have merely contributed a meager effort."
Zhou Sui smiled slightly and said very modestly.
Clearly, this battle had completely established his prestige, shocking the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the entire Canglan Sea.
Even the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Three Great Demon Sects dared not say anything at this moment.
They didn't even dare to mention anything regarding the Eight Desolations Demon Sealing Tower.
In fact, many Nascent Soul Cultivators had seen the scene of Zhou Sui killing the three transformation-stage dragons, and each had an answer in their hearts: this person must have obtained the inheritance of the Kurong Sect and learned the Withered Glory Profound Light Art.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to finish off three transformation-stage dragons so nonchalantly.
They were all a bit uneasy.
After all, facing a terrifying existence that could take their lives at any moment, they were also a bit restless.
If they were to turn hostile at this time, they feared not a single one of them would be able to leave.
Fortunately, Zhou Sui was not a bloodthirsty person, so they could barely set their minds at ease.
"According to the previous agreement, the corpses of these Fourth-tier Beasts killed by Daoist Zhou, as well as the two Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures and the wisp of Ancient Demon Qi, all belong to Daoist Zhou. Does anyone have any objections?"
Chongxu Daoren spoke up.
Since the war had been won, the next step was naturally the time to distribute the spoils of war.
After all, so many monster beasts had been slaughtered this time.
The materials on these monster beasts alone, as well as the Storage Bags on them, were a huge fortune.
There was no one who didn't covet them.
"No objections, we certainly have no objections."
"That's right, Daoist Zhou's contribution was the greatest this time, so it should rightfully be his."
"Indeed, that is the case; if it weren't for Daoist Zhou's efforts, I'm afraid we would have been completely routed in this battle."
"Even if he wanted to take all these monster beast corpses, we would not hesitate."
Many Nascent Soul Cultivators immediately stepped forward to flatter him, having no intention of competing with Zhou Sui for these spoils of war.
Beyond Zhou Sui's military achievements, the opponent's absolute strength also thoroughly convinced them.
Absolutely no one dared to contend with him.
Most importantly, they did not care much about those two Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures.
Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures are indeed quite precious.
There are not many of them in the entire Immortal Cultivation World; they are simply few and far between.
The problem is that to refine a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, one requires the Treasure-Passing Art.
Clearly, the Treasure-Passing Arts for these two Demon Race Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures are controlled by the Demon Race, and outsiders have almost no way of knowing them.
Even if one truly obtained them, they would likely just be a pile of scrap metal.
More importantly, after obtaining these two Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures, one might be targeted by the Jiaolong Clan and the Demon Phoenix Clan.
Do not think that just because victory has been achieved now, the threat of the Demon Race ends here.
To tell the truth, this is merely the beginning.
As the Boundary Gate continues to strengthen, it can accommodate more and more of the Demon Race.
It is possible that Transformation Deity Demon Cultivators will come over.
By then, whoever obtained these two Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures would be in big trouble.
Therefore, they naturally dared not keep such a hot potato in their own hands.
Since Zhou Sui wanted to obtain them, then handing them over to Zhou Sui was fine.
"Then thank you all for your generosity."
Zhou Sui smiled slightly, looking at the many Nascent Soul Cultivators with great satisfaction.
…………
One day later.
After the Wuji Alliance, Tianjian Sect, Sunset Sect, Xuanbao Pavilion, Piaomiao Palace, Heavenly Demon Sect, Xuanyin Sect, Black Fiend Hall, and other Human Race Nascent Soul forces finished holding the victory banquet, they each returned to their own sects.
Although the Demon Race coalition army was defeated, the Demon Race was severely damaged, and the Demon Race's offensive was delayed.
However, the forces of the Ancient Demon World could not possibly be limited to just this.
There were still endless Monster Beasts running out from the Boundary Gate.
The major sects also needed to continuously dispatch Disciples to hunt these Monster Beasts to maintain the stability of the Canglan Sea.
"Daoist Zhou, please stay."
At this moment, Zhou Sui originally wanted to leave, but was kept behind by the Piaomiao Palace Master, Ye Feirou.
"Palace Master Ye, I wonder what important matter you have?"
Zhou Sui looked at Ye Feirou curiously.
"I wonder if we could find a secluded place; this concubine has something she wishes to discuss with you, Daoist?"
Ye Feirou looked at Zhou Sui very seriously.
"Alright, of course that is no problem."
"Taoyao, you all go back first; I will chat with Palace Master Ye and should be back very soon."
Zhou Sui said to Taohua Shangren.
"Very well, husband."
Taohua Shangren nodded.
She and Wuji Daoren and the others boarded the Teleportation Array and soon returned to the Wuji Alliance.
Not long after, Zhou Sui and Ye Feirou arrived in a secret chamber within Piaomiao Palace.
"Daoist Zhou, if I am not mistaken, you should be the Wood Daoist who controls the ruins of the Kurong Sect, right?"
Ye Feirou looked at Zhou Sui with her beautiful eyes flickering, getting straight to the point.
"Oh, what makes Daoist Ye think so?"
Zhou Sui did not admit it, but he did not deny it either.
"Because that Withered Glory Profound Light Art of yours yesterday has long been world-renowned; otherwise, you would not have been able to kill three Transformation Deity-level Jiaolong. In fact, it is not just me; I estimate that all the Nascent Soul Cultivators present noticed it."
"But they fear Daoist Zhou's reputation, so they dared not say anything more and could only swallow their anger."
Ye Feirou looked at Zhou Sui with burning eyes.
She already had ninety percent certainty in her heart that this person was the Wood Daoist who had blackmailed her back then.
Thinking of what happened before, she felt furious.
Because this was also the biggest loss she had ever suffered in her life.
"Since Daoist Ye has guessed it, then I can only admit it."
"That is correct, the ruins of the Kurong Sect are indeed controlled by me."
"Then, what exactly do you want to do by bringing this up, Daoist Ye?"
Zhou Sui nodded.
He knew that by displaying the Withered Glory Profound Light Art, he certainly could not hide it from other Nascent Soul Cultivators.
After all, although the Kurong Sect had disappeared for tens of thousands of years, relevant deeds were still recorded in their respective classics.
Ordinary Cultivators might not be clear, but these ancient Nascent Soul sects certainly were.
As Nascent Soul Ancestors, none of them were fools.
Of course, having reached this point today, he was no longer afraid of leaking these secrets.
Because according to his current strength, even if it were exposed, it would not amount to much.
No one would dare to attack his Xuanhuang Sect.
This battle had also thoroughly demonstrated his power.
Otherwise, Nascent Soul Cultivators would have long since come forward to hold them accountable.
"Daoist Zhou, to tell you the truth."
"The reason I pointed this out is that I want to relocate Piaomiao Palace away from this sea area."
"I even want to have Piaomiao Palace join the Xuanhuang Sect."
Ye Feirou said in a deep voice, stating an earth-shattering decision.
What?!
Once these words were spoken, Zhou Sui was also greatly shocked; it was simply unbelievable.
He had not expected that Ye Feirou would actually make such a decision.
After all, Piaomiao Palace is a Nascent Soul Sect that has existed for thousands of years, one of the five great Nascent Soul Sects of the Canglan Sea.
But to make such a decision now is truly inconceivable.
If this matter were to spread, it would certainly shock the entire Canglan Sea.
This is simply the Xuanhuang Sect swallowing an elephant.
"Why make such a decision?"
But soon, Zhou Sui calmed down; he knew that Ye Feirou was not an impulsive woman. Having been the Palace Master of Piaomiao Palace for hundreds of years, she was calculating and shrewd, so how could she be impulsive?
She must have been planning this for a long time to have made such a decision.
"Well, about that."
"It is naturally because of the invasion of the Demon Race."
"Don't look at how we destroyed the Ancient Demon Conversion Array this time and ruined the plans of the Demon Race."
"But the Demon Race is powerful, and the situation of our Human Race has actually not changed at all."
"Fourth-tier Beasts will still continue to pour in through the Boundary Gate."
"The fourth-tier beasts we killed before do not really count as a major blow to the entire Ancient Demon World."
"The most helpless part is that our Piaomiao Palace sea area is the place where the most beast disasters occur."
"If things continue like this, and more fourth-tier beasts come, then our Piaomiao Palace will surely be wiped out."
"That is why I have long wanted to relocate Piaomiao Palace."
"Unfortunately, I could never find a suitable place to relocate to before."
"But now it is different."
"Daoist Zhou obtained the ruins of the Kurong Sect, which is a Fifth-tier Island with a Fifth-tier Spirit Vein on it."
"It can fully accommodate the entire Piaomiao Palace."
"If we can join the Xuanhuang Sect, then our Piaomiao Palace can survive."
Ye Feirou said in a deep voice.
She was considering a very realistic matter, which was the future survival of Piaomiao Palace.
Even if this battle was won, it does not mean the end of the war.
It is merely the opening act of the war between the Human Race and the Demon Race.
In the next few hundred, or even thousands of years, the entire Immortal Cultivation World may be plunged into the flames of war.
Under these circumstances, Piaomiao Palace must find space to survive.
Otherwise, it will certainly be wiped out by the Demon Race.
At this time, joining the Xuanhuang Sect is the best choice.
Not only would they gain the protection of Zhou Sui, but they would also be able to live on a Fifth-tier Island.
It is simply killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, the name does sound a bit unpleasant, as if Piaomiao Palace had been annexed by the Xuanhuang Sect.
But she did not care at all; as long as the cultivators of Piaomiao Palace could survive, that was the best thing for her.
"Palace Master Ye is indeed far-sighted."
"But why should I agree to let you join the Xuanhuang Sect?"
"Your Piaomiao Palace is powerful with many people; after joining the Xuanhuang Sect, you might even usurp the host's place."
"Making my Xuanhuang Sect a mess."
"You are purely taking advantage of my Xuanhuang Sect."
Zhou Sui said in a deep voice.
He would not agree to this matter from Ye Feirou so easily; even if they did join, the Xuanhuang Sect would have to hold absolute dominance. After all, according to the current trend, the Xuanhuang Sect would sooner or later become a Nascent Soul Sect.
It can be said that whether Piaomiao Palace joins or not does not actually have much significance.
Instead, if they join the Xuanhuang Sect, they will occupy the resources of the Xuanhuang Sect and take over various places on Xuanhuang Island.
Of course, he did indeed need some cultivators to settle on Xuanhuang Island.
After all, Xuanhuang Island has a diameter of over one million kilometers, so it would be no problem at all to house hundreds of billions of people.
"I also know that such a request will indeed put Daoist Zhou in a difficult position."
"So I want to help you, Daoist."
"If I am not mistaken, Daoist Zhou's cultivation has also almost reached the perfection of the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, right?"
"You are only one step away from the Nascent Soul Late Stage."
Ye Feirou looked at Zhou Sui with her beautiful eyes.
"That is correct, my cultivation has indeed reached the realm of the Nascent Soul Middle Stage perfection."
Zhou Sui nodded.
"As expected of the genius who appears once in ten thousand years in the Canglan Sea, your talent is truly astonishing."
"To have reached this realm at only a little over a hundred years old."
"Compared to you, fellow Daoist, other Nascent Soul Cultivators are truly not even worth as much as trash."
Ye Feirou felt deeply moved inside.
She thought of Zhou Sui's age, then looked at the cultivation base he possessed, as well as his previous battle records; she could only call him a heaven-defying genius, truly a figure like a fallen immortal.
Perhaps this was the Son of Luck, appearing once in ten thousand years, born from the great catastrophe encountered by the Human Race.
Otherwise, how could he have had continuous miraculous encounters in such a short time, with his cultivation base advancing by leaps and bounds?
Normally, even for a Heavenly Spirit Root cultivator, advancing to Golden Core at such an age would be considered rapid progress.
How could it be like now, where he is already a big shot at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage? It is truly too terrifying.
But in troubled times, monsters are bound to emerge.
Perhaps this Zhou Sui is the Destined Son nurtured within the catastrophe of the Human Race.
Only if Piaomiao Palace binds itself to this man can it survive the future great catastrophe.
Thinking of this, she had already made her decision deep down.
"However, even so, given your cultivation base, fellow Daoist, I fear it is far from enough to deal with the coming great catastrophe."
"Especially since you, fellow Daoist, killed so many fourth-tier Demon Cultivators this time, among whom were many prodigies of the Jiaolong Clan and Demon Phoenix Clan."
"It can be said that you, fellow Daoist, have already become a great enemy and a serious threat to the Demon Race."
"If the Boundary Gate grows to a certain extent, enough to accommodate Deity Transformation Demon Cultivators, I fear they will come to kill you, fellow Daoist, at the first opportunity."
"Of course, the growth of the Boundary Gate requires a certain amount of time, but that is only a few hundred years."
"For us Nascent Soul Cultivators, a few hundred years is simply the snap of a finger."
Ye Feirou said in a deep voice, pointing out the danger Zhou Sui would face in the future.
"The future is indeed full of catastrophes, but I do not know why fellow Daoist Ye has said so much; what is it for?"
Zhou Sui asked in a deep voice.
"This concubine wishes to show her sincerity to you, fellow Daoist."
"Although this concubine is over seven hundred years old, with fading beauty and only a willow-like appearance."
"The only thing that might catch your eye, fellow Daoist, is this Yin Essence that I have cultivated for over seven hundred years."
"If you utilize this Yin Essence, fellow Daoist, I fear you could immediately advance to the Nascent Soul Late Stage."
"Although, given your talent, fellow Daoist, advancing to the Nascent Soul Late Stage is only a matter of time."
"But with my assistance, fellow Daoist, it can also save you a great deal of cultivation time."
"In this way, fellow Daoist, you might be able to step into Deity Transformation within a few hundred years."
"By then, even if you encounter a Deity Transformation Demon Cultivator, you will have the power to contend."
"This is my sincerity, fellow Daoist; I hope you will grant this."
Ye Feirou's pretty face was flushed red, her charming eyes like silk; it was also her first time taking the initiative to offer herself to a man like this.
But there was no other way.
This was all for the future of Piaomiao Palace, for the future of the Human Race in the Canglan Sea.
Only by offering herself to this Destined Son of the Human Race and assisting his cultivation would there be hope for the Human Race in the future.
She was doing this for the great cause of the Human Race.
At this moment, she felt waves of heat rising in her body, almost impossible to suppress.
"This!"
Zhou Sui blinked; he could perceive that the favorability Ye Feirou held for him had seemingly reached perfection without him realizing it, which was why she would take the initiative to offer herself like this.
He looked at the beautiful face of this number one beauty of the Canglan Sea, as well as her proud figure, and could not help but feel a bit intoxicated.
This woman clearly did not know any charm techniques, yet she could bewitch all living beings; she was simply the best of the best.
Not long after, bursts of hearty Dao sounds came from the secret chamber.
……
One night passed.
Piaomiao Palace, a secret chamber.
"You engaged in Dual Cultivation with your Dao Companion seven times last night; your hearts are connected, and your love has deepened."
"You have gained a certain amount of Sword Dao experience and a certain amount of cultivation experience."
"Your Spirit Root aptitude has been improved to a certain degree."
"You have obtained her vast Yin Essence, and your cultivation base has risen to the Nascent Soul Late Stage."
At this very moment, Zhou Sui woke up faintly.
At this moment, he immediately sensed that his body was filled with vast Nascent Soul Dharma Power, and the Dharma Power flowing through his meridians was like a great river, surging and galloping through every meridian.
It seemed that the Dharma Power of many Spirit Veins had merged into one, forming a complete cycle.
The Nascent Soul deep within his Dantian Qi Sea had also undergone earth-shaking changes.
It had transformed from its previous adolescent appearance into an adult appearance.
It could be said that it was exactly the same as his current appearance.
It was almost as if it were a second avatar.
"Not bad, not bad, finally stepped into the Nascent Soul Late Stage."
"I originally thought it would take at least several decades to advance to the Nascent Soul Late Stage."
"I didn't expect that with the help of Ye Feirou's vast Yin Essence, I would break through in one go."
Zhou Sui smiled slightly, feeling very satisfied.
To tell the truth, this could also be considered an unexpected joy.
Ye Feirou is indeed worthy of being a Great Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Late Stage; having been born over seven hundred years ago, the Yin Essence within her body is unimaginably thick, something no ordinary female cultivator could compare to.
After obtaining this vast amount of Yin Essence, his cultivation base advanced by leaps and bounds.
Originally, for an ordinary Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator, the Nascent Soul Late Stage is simply a massive bottleneck.
A vast number of Nascent Soul Cultivators are trapped at the Middle Stage, unable to break through for their entire lives.
Even in a sacred land for cultivation like the Eastern Wasteland Continent, Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators are still few and far between.
Out of one hundred Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivators, not many would be able to ascend to the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
One can imagine just how difficult it is to break through this bottleneck.
"I originally formed my Nascent Soul at one hundred years old; according to my cultivation speed, being able to ascend to the Nascent Soul Late Stage before three hundred years old would be considered quite good, even rapid progress."
"Now, I am only one hundred and eighty-five years old, and I have actually ascended to the Nascent Soul Late Stage."
"Aside from the benefits of the Fourth-Tier Treasure Pill and the assistance of my Dao Companion, the greatest help was naturally the improvement of my aptitude, especially after reaching the First Grade Spiritual Root; my cultivation base has progressed even more rapidly."
"Even the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul Late Stage has loosened quite a bit."
"No wonder it is so simple for those cultivators with high aptitude to break through; if one's Spirit Root talent is high, the bottleneck will also be much weaker."
Zhou Sui stroked his chin.
He felt that his breakthrough this time was a matter of course, calm and unruffled, and he broke through without any surprises.
Of course, if Ye Feirou had not voluntarily offered herself and given the vast Yin Essence within her body to him.
I am afraid he would have needed at least several decades, or even a hundred years of bitter cultivation, to break through.
It can be said that by doing this, Ye Feirou saved him a massive amount of time spent in bitter cultivation, allowing him to have more time to attempt to break through to Spirit Severing, which is absolutely vital for a cultivator.
However, for him, the most important thing was naturally obtaining this charming and beautiful woman.
Enjoying the number one beauty of the Canglan Sea is a matter of supreme earthly pleasure, with an aftertaste that is endless.
If outside cultivators knew of this, they would likely be driven mad with jealousy.
"If my Spirit Root aptitude could be raised to the level of a Heavenly Spirit Root, then breaking through to become a Spirit Severing would likely be even simpler, and the bottleneck would surely be weakened significantly."
Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.
To tell the truth, his current Spirit Root aptitude has already reached the First Grade realm, and it is still constantly improving.
If he continues his bitter cultivation like this, in all likelihood, he is not very far from a Heavenly Spirit Root.
Of course, he will not be overly anxious; letting things take their natural course is fine.
"I have to say, the Nascent Soul Late Stage is truly worthy of being a Great Cultivator."
"Compared to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, it is truly far too powerful; it is simply a qualitative improvement."
"The Dharma Power in my body, as well as my divine sense, have at least doubled compared to before."
"The current me could at least beat ten of my former selves; the difference in strength is too great."
Zhou Sui was very moved.
The Nascent Soul Dharma Power within his body surged continuously, vast and integrated, capable of drawing in more Spirit Qi from heaven and earth.
His combat power has now increased several times over.
It can be said that he is an out-and-out Nascent Soul Dashixi, fully capable of standing at the peak of the Canglan Sea.
Based on combat power alone, he can completely sweep through all cultivators in the Nascent Soul Realm.
Only now can he be considered invincible in the Canglan Sea.
Boom~~
Thinking of this, Zhou Sui moved his mind and immediately summoned the Virtual Panel.
【Host: Zhou Sui, Cultivation: Nascent Soul Late Stage (Progress 1%), Lifespan: 185 (30000) years】

Instantly, a series of data appeared deep within his sea of consciousness, clearly displaying his current strength and abilities.
"My lifespan has indeed increased; it has actually increased to thirty thousand years."
"Does this mean I am getting younger as I live?"
Zhou Sui was very excited.
Although for an ordinary person, having lived for over a hundred years, he is already quite old.
If placed in the secular world, he would likely be an ancestor.
But relative to his lifespan, he is currently just a child, so naturally, he is getting younger as he lives.
Previously, he also performed the Withered Glory Profound Light Art, but it only cost him a few days of life.
Compared to his vast lifespan, it is simply a drop in the ocean, not even comparable to a period of closed-door cultivation.
Regardless, for a Cultivator, Longevity is still the most important thing of all.
Even if one possesses powerful strength, if their Longevity is exhausted, in the end, are they not just a pile of withered bones?
The few Spirit Severing dragons from before were exactly like that.
"The Gu Insects have also all advanced to Tier 4 Upper Grade."
Zhou Sui was very satisfied.
He sensed that the thirteen Gu Insects on his body had basically all advanced to the Tier 4 Upper Grade realm.
It was a pity that, apart from the Infatuation Gu and the Array Heart Gu, the other Gu Insects had not yet advanced to the Fifth-tier realm.
Clearly, it is still quite difficult for many Gu Insects to advance to the Fifth-tier realm.
However, this was already completely sufficient.
Relying on the power of these Gu Insects, it was enough for him to run rampant in the Nascent Soul Realm and be invincible.
"Hmm."
At this moment, Ye Feirou, who had been in a deep sleep, also woke up.
Having gone through a night of tossing and turning, even though she was a Great Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, her physical strength was exhausted.
She opened her beautiful eyes and immediately saw Zhou Sui lying beside her.
Smelling the fragrant scent of Zhou Sui, her pretty face flushed red, looking just like an apple.
Having lived for so many years, this was the first time she had ever lain beside a man like this.
But for some reason, she was very comfortable with it, as if they were an old married couple; feeling like lying in this man's embrace was like returning to her mother's arms.
Before this, she had always relied on herself.
After all, the entire Piaomiao Palace was supported by her alone; if she were to fall, I fear Piaomiao Palace would have no successors.
She also bore immense pressure.
But now, she finally had someone to rely on and no longer needed to hold on all by herself.
"Are you awake?"
At this moment, Zhou Sui also sensed Ye Feirou's aura, and he gently held this charming and beautiful woman in his arms.
He sighed inwardly, truly worthy of being the number one beauty of the Canglan Sea, a peerless female Cultivator once pursued by countless Cultivators.
Such looks, such a figure, were both peerless and unique.
It simply made him sink into a land of gentleness, unable to extricate himself at all.
"D-Daoist Zhou."
Ye Feirou's pretty face was flushed red; like an ostrich, she buried herself in Zhou Sui's chest, almost not daring to look up at the man before her. She was truly too shy and did not know what to say.
"Still calling me Daoist Zhou?"
Zhou Sui put on a straight face.
"H-Husband."
Ye Feirou raised her head and said weakly, as if saying these two words had already exhausted all the courage of her life.
But after saying these two words, she felt that her heart seemed to be even closer to Zhou Sui's.
Between them, there was no longer any barrier.
It was as if they had known each other for hundreds of years; such a feeling was incomparably wonderful.
Other Cultivators, even if they have known each other for hundreds of years, are like strangers.
But some people have only met a few times, yet their fate is destined for three lifetimes.
One can only say that this is fate.
"Husband, has your cultivation base increased to the Nascent Soul Late Stage?"
At this moment, Ye Feirou also discovered with pleasant surprise that Zhou Sui's aura was several times stronger than it had been last night; clearly, he had already stepped into the Nascent Soul Late Stage realm.
Although she felt that with the help of the Yin Essence within her body, it would certainly help Zhou Sui break through.
But this was not a one-hundred-percent certainty; it was still possible for the breakthrough to fail.
If it were really that easy to advance to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, then the Canglan Sea would be full of Great Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
It would not be the case that, until now, Great Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Late Stage are still few and far between.
Generally speaking, it is already quite good for a Nascent Soul Sect to have one or two Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
Most of them are just Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.
"That's right, with your help, I have also advanced to the Nascent Soul Late Stage."
"It was just a natural progression."
Zhou Sui smiled slightly.
"This is also because your aptitude is astonishing; otherwise, how could there be such a thing as a natural progression?"
"But now that your cultivation base has increased to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, you can already be considered a Great Cultivator."
"Right now, you can probably be considered invincible in the Canglan Sea."
Ye Feirou said with great emotion.
Originally, when Zhou Sui was only at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, he could easily kill Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
Now that he has advanced to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, his combat power has increased by at least several times.
She could not even imagine to what extent Zhou Sui's combat power had reached now.
I fear that as long as Transformation God Cultivators do not appear, no one is her husband's opponent.
So her sacrifice was still worth it.
"This is nothing, it is just being invincible in the Nascent Soul Realm."
"Facing the experts of the Spirit Severing realm, it is still a bit of a stretch."
"I, for one, think that if you could step into the Spirit Severing realm, it might be even more advantageous for our current situation."
Zhou Sui rubbed his chin, looking at the peerless beauty beside him.
He sensed that Ye Feirou's cultivation, with the help of the massive Pure Yang Qi within his own body, had already risen to the realm of Nascent Soul Late Stage perfection.
She was only one step away from stepping into the Spirit Severing realm.
It could be said that while he could not advance to Spirit Severing in the short term, Ye Feirou could.
"Advancing to Spirit Severing? How could it be that simple?"
"This realm is practically a natural chasm."
"Even in the Immortal Cultivation World of the Ancient Era, the number of Cultivators who could truly become Spirit Severing Venerables remained few and far between."
"Not to mention in this current era, where it is even more difficult to become a Spirit Severing Venerable."
Ye Feirou said with great helplessness.
When she was young, she also believed that she would certainly be able to advance to Spirit Severing and become a Spirit Severing Venerable.
After all, her natural talent was astonishing, and she could be called the greatest in the history of Piaomiao Palace.
Not only did she possess the Heavenly Spirit Root aptitude, but she also had a special Spirit Body—the Void Body.
This constitution allowed one to comprehend Void Force and was extremely well-suited for the Ethereal Technique of Piaomiao Palace.
It could be said that her speed was extremely fast, as if she were escaping into the Void, and she could even manipulate a certain degree of Void Force.
But as time passed, she felt that there was no hope for her to advance to Spirit Severing.
Over the past tens of thousands of years, there was a reason why no one had been able to advance to Spirit Severing.
"Oh, why is it impossible to advance to Spirit Severing?"
Zhou Sui asked with great curiosity.
After all, he was now also at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, and it was about time to consider the matter of advancing to Spirit Severing.
Unfortunately, the Wuji Alliance was, after all, only a Loose Cultivator alliance.
When it came to foundations, how could it compare to an old-established sect like Piaomiao Palace?
Therefore, not many Nascent Soul Cultivators in the Wuji Alliance knew how to attempt the breakthrough to Spirit Severing.
"In fact, advancing to Spirit Severing is much like advancing to Nascent Soul; it also requires passing three trials."
"And the first trial of advancing to Spirit Severing is Shattering Infant and Condensing Spirit."
Ye Feirou said in a deep voice.
Although this knowledge was top secret for ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators—basically mysteries passed down from generation to generation by the Palace Masters of Piaomiao Palace, and generally not allowed to be spread externally—
she had now given her heart to Zhou Sui, so naturally, she did not care about the leakage of these secrets.
On the contrary, she hoped that Zhou Sui could gain more experience in advancing to Spirit Severing.
In this way, when he advanced to Spirit Severing in the future, he would have a greater probability of success.
Therefore, she did not mind such secrets being leaked and told Zhou Sui everything without reservation.
