Chapter 2309

And now... - ok.

Translation: "And now…" Keep ellipsis.

Heart Sword... - ok.

... - ok.

Translation: "Heart Sword and Intent Sword have become the same thing; without the Dao Mark Scar, there is no difference between them, roughly only the power of a 4th-tier Secret Art, but because the primordial source qi has a restraining effect on all matter, it can unleash power close to that of a 5th-tier Secret Art."

... - ok.

... - ok.

Translation: "And the Chaos Domain is a genuine 6th-tier Secret Art effect, even able to contend with some 7th-tier body-protection Law Secret Techniques!"

... - ok.

Note there is a missing space after comma? We'll translate: "This difference let Xiao Feng understand that primordial source qi is not a killing force; seeking to kill enemies is not the direction he should cultivate."

... - ok.

Translation: Yu Cixue said: "Brother Dao's power can create things and also decompose all things; this is the fundamental attribute of the law. Perhaps starting from this Dao, as a path, would be better."

We need to keep quotes. Use English quotes.

... - ok.

Translation: "Mm, I think the same, I just haven't figured out what form to manifest this power in." Xiao Feng said.

... - ok.

... - ok.

... - ok.

Translation: "Although Xiao Feng has mastered it, to say he fully understands it is still far off."

... - ok.

Translation: "No need to worry, you are already the master; the tempering of the Boundless Continent cannot trouble you, there is plenty of time to study slowly." Han Zichen comforted.

... - ok.

... - ok.

... - ok.

Translation: "Xiao Feng also didn't want to reveal it, saying: 'Yeah, no need to worry. You all cultivate in peace; I'll go out for a stroll and have a couple drinks with Old Zhang and them.'"

... - ok.

Translation: "I'll go with you, perfect for a rest." Han Zichen said with a light laugh.

... - ok.

... - ok.

... - ok.

Translation: "Okay, everyone go, everyone go."

... - ok.

... - ok.

... - ok.

Continuation: "sword, bringing the three fellow cultivators to Zhang Fan's house not far away."

... - ok.

We must keep each line as is.

... - ok.

Translation: "Zhang Fan is the only one in this team, besides Xiao Feng, who can undergo training together with his wife."

... - ok.

Translation: "The two families gathered together, chatting and drinking to pass the boring time left over from cultivation."

... - ok.

Translation: "While drinking, Yunyan kept complaining: 'This Imperial Dao Emperor Qi is really hard to cultivate; although my background is decent, it's still far inferior to the imperial family, and to comprehend it I have to put myself in the role of a princess or empress every day, which is embarrassingly awkward.'"

... - ok.

Translation: "Xiao Feng laughed: 'Why don't we go out to expand our territory, seize a city, and let you experience what it truly feels like to be an empress?'"

... - ok.

Translation: "Empress and such, he's old hat at it."

... - ok.

Translation: "Xuan Die is an empress, Xiao Mi is an empress, Xiu Fu and Jiang Ning are also empresses."

... - ok.

Translation: "Although the sizes of their states differ, they all count as having been rulers to some extent."

... - ok.

Translation: "Yunyan thought: 'Seems doable…… Anyway, we don't need to worry too much in this world; let's take a few decades to give it a try.'"

... - ok.

Translation: "Zhang Fan immediately said: 'Alright, then we'll go fight at Xieyue City for a while!'"

... - ok.

Translation: "Everyone had already figured out the nearby cities; Xieyue City has fewer than ten supernaturals, the strongest of whom is only mid-tier superhuman, making it a good target to bully."

... - ok.

Translation: "After taking it, there's no need to destroy it; just 'change the dynasty', let Yunyan become empress and that's enough."

... - ok.

Translation: "'I'll go help you.' Han Zichen proactively suggested."

... - ok.

Translation: "'Good, thanks sister-in-law!' Zhang Fan and Yunyan were both delighted."

... - ok.

Translation: "Han Zichen's strength can rival the Chao-Fan Valley tier; going together would be a crushing victory."

... - ok.

... - ok.

... - ok.

... - ok.

Translation: "Cixue also wanted to go."

... - ok.

Translation: "Adding Li Li, Long Jianfeng and others for reinforcement, there were over ten in total, more than enough to deal with the native inhabitants of Xieyue City."

... - ok.

Translation: "Soon, a group set off toward the target city."

... - ok.

Translation: "Xiao Feng feared they might encounter trouble, so he secretly separated a phantom self to go and look after them."

... - ok.

Translation: "Things went smoothly; not long after, the city's native powerhouses were slain by this group of 'wanderers', the diehard subordinates of the old forces were also dealt with, led by Yunyan, who took over Xieyue City and its surrounding areas, which have a population of over three million."

... - ok.

Translation: "For the ordinary citizens of Xieyue City, this was merely a change of ruler; as long as they weren't heavily taxed and oppressed, whoever was lord made no difference to them, and they had no idea the new female city lord was an outsider."

... - ok.

Translation: "After taking the city, the team's partners had two choices: continue cultivating in the Wasteland as wanderers, or go to Xieyue City to serve as subordinates of Empress Yunyan, together enjoying the feeling of being nobles."

... - ok.

Translation: "Perhaps life in the Wasteland was too dull, with no entertainment at all; over time, everyone ended up living in Xieyue City."

... - ok.

Translation: "Only Han Zichen, Xue Ningzhen, and Yu Cixue remained, staying to accompany Xiao Feng."

... - ok.

Translation: "Xiao Feng placed a phantom self in seclusion in Xieyue City to protect his companions."

... - ok.

Translation: "His true self continued to cultivate and contemplate."

... - ok.

Translation: "In the Boundless Continent, about a month had passed, while the Heavens Tower had already elapsed ten months."

... - ok.

Translation: "After countless teleportations over ten months, Xiao Feng finally finished exploring the 500-layer Will Labyrinth."

... - ok.

Translation: "【Congratulations on passing the 5000-layer challenge!】"

... - ok.

Translation: "【You gained 5000 challenge points!】"

You have obtained one bound Venerable Holy Artifact!

Translation: "【You obtained a bound Venerable Holy Instrument!】"

The system popped up a prompt tone and also triggered something ordinary.

Rewards from the mysterious shop.

Translation: "the rewards of the mysterious shop."

Xiao Feng, as usual, spent points to buy a precious item that was completely useless to him.

Translation: "Xiao Feng looked, as usual still spending points to buy precious items utterly useless to him."

Then he moved on to the next stage of the challenge.

Translation: "Then he continued to the next stage challenge."

Whoosh~

Translation: "Whoosh~"

The scene shifted, and he found himself on a training field with a large wooden post in front.

Translation: "The scene before his eyes changed; he arrived at a training field, with a large wooden post in front."

Heavenly Tower Levels 5001-5500 challenge: Skill Challenge – Perfection. Create a secret art of 7th tier or higher to pass; you may use previously created secret arts.

Translation: "【Heavens Tower 5001-5500 layer challenge content: Skill Challenge·Perfection. Creating a secret art of 7th tier or higher allows passage; previously created secret arts may be used.】"

This level ended as soon as it began.

Translation: "This level ended as soon as it began."

Xiao Feng casually waved his hand, the Intent Sword condensed and struck the wooden post.

Translation: "Xiao Feng casually waved, condensing the Intent Sword, which fell onto the wooden post."

Bang~

Translation: "Boom~"

A small hole appeared on the indestructible ultimate wooden post, which quickly healed.

Translation: "On the indestructible ultimate wooden post appeared a tiny hole, which quickly healed."

A huge -79000 damage slowly floated up.

Translation: "A huge -79000 damage floated up slowly."

【Detected your self-created Secret Art is of 8th-grade quality, permission granted to pass the 5001-5500 floor challenge!】

【Congratulations on passing……】

【Because you……】

A series of prompt sounds rang out; this clearance was unbelievably fast, ending in less than 5 seconds from start to finish.

Super Mysterious Shop popped up; Xiao Feng glanced at it casually, bought everything, and continued to the next stage.

Swish!

The scenery before his eyes changed again; this time the common view turned into an endless expanse of land.

【Heavens Tower Layer 5501 Challenge Content: Venerable Challenge. Defeat your opponent to pass.】

This layer is also simple; slaying monsters is as easy for Xiao Feng as eating and drinking.

Not far ahead, a boss spawned, over 700 meters tall, resembling a pig, but it walks upright.

【Unparalleled Pig Emperor】

Level: 2001 (Venerable)

HP: 10 zi/10 zi

Divine Yuan Power: 10 gai/10 gai

Divine Power Resistance: 5 gai

Physical

Resistance: 5 gai

Skills: Great Pig Emperor Fist, Ten Million Shatter Void Fist, Collapse Heaven Technique (4th-level Secret Art), Burning Divine Soul (5th-level Secret Art)

Note: It is the embodiment of violence!

Xiao Feng glanced at the boss's info, gave a faint smile.

He didn't really agree with that note.

The embodiment of violence is obviously him, Xiao Feng!

"Goodbye." Xiao Feng raised his hand and pressed.

Boom~

Divine power erupted, no skills needed, directly crushing and annihilating!

Now he is a player of the Venerable Realm; no living being can impose realm suppression on him anymore.

With the Supreme Holy Ring, super high level, Innate Dao Body and other conditions combined, a terrifying attribute panel was formed. Now he can fight against boss-level overlords like Emperor Jiang and the Lord of Stars without needing the Supreme Sacrifice.

A mere Venerable Challenge is naturally no problem.
