The pitch-black night was shrouded in darkness, with towering mountains stretching across the landscape and deep, ancient forests filled with the occasional roars of ferocious beasts and the cries of exotic birds, rising and falling in a chilling and eerie atmosphere.

Deep in the mountains, soft light rippled outwards like waves. The nearby vegetation was fresh and lush, and upon closer inspection, a man sat quietly in the misty light at the source.

Qin Ming is undergoing a transformation, radiating a brilliant light that not only dispels the darkness, but also causes wild grasses and vines to grow wildly due to the subtle energy emanating from him.

A person meditating alone is as if creating a small Blessed Land.

Deep in the mountains, scarlet vertical pupils opened, and eyes the size of basins shone with golden light. These were giant beasts from the Great Barrens, drawn by the rich spiritual energy.

At this moment, Qin Ming's vitality was as blazing as the rising sun, Lingering a rich Daoist aura and exuding abundant spiritual energy, as if a rare and heavenly materials and earthly treasures had been born.

The Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella slowly rotated under the night sky, its purple qi billowing and covering the entire mountainside, instantly startling all the strange creatures into fleeing in panic.

In addition, the Two Figurines and the Little Worm exuding Evil Qi stood not far away, like two guardian deities, silently protecting the area.

Initially, Qin Ming remained calm and still, but as time went on, strange phenomena began to appear around him.

Just now, suddenly, a thousand cicadas chirped and flew up from him, their transparent wings like divine swords slicing through the night sky, accompanied by thunderous sounds.

Subsequently, visible geomagnetic lines shot out and resonated with the magnetic field of the entire mountain range. At Qin Ming's location, the force field expanded, which was extremely terrifying, and the nearby mountain walls collapsed with a roar.

Soon, Qin Ming's entire body turned golden, as if cast from a Exotic Metal. Even his internal organs were filled with Golden Haze, and his bones were interwoven with extreme Dao Patterns.

Its physical body was extremely strong, comparable to many legendary creatures such as the Kunpeng and the Golden Crow.

However, even with such a powerful physique, he was able to go even further in the end. It was as if he was refining his body and merging with the Dao, returning to his original simplicity. With a light clench of his fist, he seemed to distort the void.

In an instant, the Black and White behind Qin Ming transformed into Taiji Diagram, spinning continuously, making him appear as if he were a Dao Ancestor sitting cross-legged, resurrected from the Abyss, and New Life from the Nirvana.

As night deepened, the roar of Dragon Roar Tiger Howl resounded from within Qin Ming's body, deafeningly loud. His numerous techniques and endless Heavenly Light were condensing, like refining Great Medicine within his body.

On this night, he not only integrated the Sky Supporting Force, but also revealed all that he had learned in the past.

At first, everything went very smoothly, but after truly integrating the Sky Supporting Force, his Qi became slightly disordered and not so smooth.

As night deepened, the atmosphere here became increasingly terrifying and chaotic.

It wasn't just the Sky Supporting Force that was the problem; other divine forces that had long been integrated into one were also gradually becoming restless. For example, the Nine Heavens Scripture, also known as the Hell Scripture, was operating on its own.

At this moment, it began to riot; truly, one thought could lead to heaven, and another to Hell.

Qin Ming's Light of the Mind was extinguished several times, and his Mental Field disappeared from the real world, which was both strange and terrifying.

Subsequently, the <Subduing Heart Scripture> he had mastered was also to be separated from the rest of himself. In an instant, the sound of horses neighing and the roar of divine apes rang out from within his body.

With a whoosh, a gleaming steed broke free from his body, riding on fiery clouds and surrounded by colorful rays of light, about to gallop away through the void.

Then, a divine ape burst out of his body, its aura soaring to the heavens, its eyes gleaming with Divine Radiance, ready to leap away and soar beyond the Nine Heavens.

This was Qin Ming's restless mind, a true manifestation of the high-speed operation of the six pages of the Jade Book's Subduing Heart Sutra.

Legend has it that Cao Qianqiu might have been the reincarnation of the Xin Yuan, cut off by someone else.

Qin Ming had studied this True Scripture for a long time, but he never tried to sever his Xin Yuan. He believed that was not his own path and never intended to create another self, waiting for the right time to refine it into Great Medicine.

"Receive!"

With a soft shout, the light of other scriptures within his body materialized, transforming into tangible chains of the mind that bound his Will Horse and subdued his Xin Yuan.

He locked the two "beasts" back into the mental prison, and then activated the myriad fires formed from various scriptures to begin burning them.

Immediately, the Xin Yuan and howls of his Will Horse mind echoed deep within his flesh and blood, shaking the mountains and forests.

In the end, the two beasts were decomposed and transformed back into pure Light of the Mind, allowing Qin Ming's Spirit Domain to undergo a tempering process and stabilize.

The crisis is not over yet; it has only just begun.

Seven Longevity Sword Intent burst forth from Qin Ming's body in succession. This time, he did not intercept the vitality of all things to propel himself Eternal Presence the vigorous Dao Path of immortality, but instead encountered a backlash, and his physical body showed signs of decay.

He frowned. Were all these scriptures rebelling?

He realized that the problem was getting serious.

Qin Ming unleashed a thunderous roar, spitting out a beam of runic light that forcefully suppressed the backlash from the <Abiding World Scripture>.

The next instant, the Six Ding Divine Fire, the Sun True Fire, the Southern Blazing Fire, and the World Purifying Fire appeared simultaneously, not to help him burn his enemies, nor to help him refine the Dragon Tiger Pill.

They became restless and riotous, and began to burn themselves.

"Town!"

Qin Ming once again uttered divine sounds, suppressing the Four Flavors True Fire, and sorted out the meanings of various scriptures.

However, as soon as he pressed down one gourd, another one would rise up, leaving him exhausted from dealing with it all.

Even those doctrines that he suppressed will later rebel again.

For example, within his body, the roars of his Xin Yuan and the neighing of his Will Horse echoed throughout the entire mountain range, startling many Higher Aberrant into fleeing.

Qin Ming's expression changed drastically, and he said, "Hiss, the True Form Tribulation won't appear today, will it?"

His eyes suddenly shot out two beams of light like lightning; he had never forgotten the crisis that was destined to occur in the Fifth Realm.

Fluttering!

Within his body, a flock of Golden Crow flew out, illuminating the night sky and transforming the pitch-black darkness into Daylight World.

"I've comprehended the <Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture>, but is that related to the author's work?" Qin Ming's expression was solemn; tonight might be a major calamity for him.

Fortunately, his New Life had already begun. His body was burning hot, and Divine Capital were undergoing transformation, radiating a rich vitality.

"The problem lies with the Silk Book Method; the hidden dangers that were indeed there have erupted tonight."

Qin Ming's general principles for governing all laws are generally sound in the first four realms, having been refined by his Ancestor and further adjusted by himself using the Life Altering Scripture.

However, the hidden dangers of the Fifth Realm's teachings have never been eliminated. Even the Ancestor had to force themselves to continue practicing, relying on their physical strength to endure until they reached the Sixth Realm.

Previously, Qin Ming had relied on his own talent to force his way through the challenges, and after breaking through to the Grandmaster Domain, he never felt anything special.

Tonight, his fusion with the Sky Bearing Scripture triggered a potentially major problem.

The Sky Bearing Scripture is equivalent to a weakened Silk Book Method.

It incorporates many scriptures, including some of the most important True Scripture.

Now, Qin Ming's absorption and refinement of the Sky Supporting Force is equivalent to igniting a powder keg, exploding out the hidden dangers that he had suppressed with his physical strength.

He felt a heavy weight in his heart; was he going to crash and burn here?

"The Silk Scripture, created by those Ancestor over nine hundred years ago, has never been subdued by later generations. Today, you're going to fight me to the death, aren't you?"

Qin Ming was like a furnace, radiating intense heat. One moment a Golden Crow would rise above his head, the next Xin Yuan would surface, and then his soul would plummet into Hell.

During this process, his body underwent various changes, which would not have been a problem in the past, but now they were all problems. It was as if lightning inexplicably descended from the void, first striking him with five thunderbolts, then piercing his chest with nine thunderbolts, and the lightning raged and covered him.

Even the stable <Primordial Myriad Thunder Seal> began to wreak havoc like this.

Most importantly, later on, lightning seemed to explode within his internal organs; this was "Inner Thunder," born within his body.

Qin Ming grimaced, experiencing firsthand the pain his enemy had once felt.

However, he managed to persevere; after all, every rainy season he would deliberately attract lightning, and who knows how many cups of wine he drank in the process.

Thunder Medicine.

With a "boom," the Yin-Yang Qi surged within his body, illuminating half of his body in a clear Black and White.

"We're from the same hometown, both from Black White Mountain. Why are you causing trouble too?"

Qin Ming spat out a mouthful of blood mist, tinged with Black and White Qi; he was already seriously injured.

"Should I stop integrating the classics?" he pondered.

However, how could that be?

He had anticipated some of these situations and knew they would cause hidden dangers for the Silk Book Method. Now that the difficulties had just begun, how could he back down immediately?

To master the Fifth Realm of Silk Book Method, he must undergo Baptism of Blood and Fire.

Various Scriptures arose, and dozens of halos bloomed around his body, no longer so harmonious, as if trying to break free and showing signs of each claiming its own territory.

"All laws return to one, governing Various Scriptures!" Qin Ming shouted.

Relying on his powerful physique and terrifying talent, he began to tough out all the forces, trying to overcome them directly.

"The initial path of cultivation was always like this; it was gradually discovered through trial and error by successive generations of sages," he muttered to himself, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Of course, his problem is more serious.

This is not a gradual process of trial and error, but rather a major explosion caused by problems accumulating to a certain extent.

The hidden dangers of the Fifth Realm are indeed terrifying, and it is extremely difficult.

In an instant, Qin Ming's body trembled, and all the laws of nature erupted, showing a tendency to get out of control.

With a hum, Black Hole appeared inside his body, absorbing various energies. Those who refused to submit to his control were directly cleaved and thrown into the black vortex.

"Shatter Various Scriptures, and all laws will be integrated."

Qin Ming's body swayed, and cracks had appeared on his skin.

"No way, it has to explode every time?" He felt a chill run down his spine. Even with the Black Hole hidden within the Chaos Force, it couldn't swallow all the "traitors." Now, it seemed like the law wouldn't punish everyone.

"Puff!"

Qin Ming coughed up large amounts of blood, and the problem was getting more and more serious.

"This is... it's going to explode!" Suddenly, he felt a pang of fear. The meridians were in disarray, especially the Sky Supporting Force, which was the most troublesome, being a newly added variable.

The Sky Bearing Scripture resembles a weakened version of the Silk Book Method, but its integrated meaning is entirely different. Its incorporation into the Chaos Force indeed had extremely serious consequences.

In an instant, golden threads intertwined within Qin Ming's flesh and blood, gleaming with jade light. He used a life-saving technique to don Jade Suit Sewn with Gold Threads.

Even so, his body was still bleeding and had many cracks.

If it weren't for the gold thread used to sew his body back together, he would most likely have already torn apart by now.

Without a doubt, the unique characteristic of Chaos Force —longevity—is his means of survival.

"The earliest teachings all required constant trial and error, blazing a trail with one's life. Although I am a latecomer, this scripture is so unique that it allowed me to truly experience the hardships and suffering of my predecessors."

Qin Ming wanted to persevere, relying on his natural talent to get by.

Only by clearing this path and eliminating hidden dangers can those who come after him practice this scripture more smoothly.

During Qin Ming's New Life, some cracks in his body were healing rapidly.

However, as Various Scriptures arose and Dragon Snake Rising from Land, huge cracks crisscrossed his flesh and blood again, and he could no longer control them.

"There's no other way, we really have to blow it up."

Qin Ming was helpless, but he refused to give up easily. With Mind Clarity, he closely observed the many subtle changes within his own flesh and blood and recorded the problem.

And so he persevered until the dead of night, until finally, with a deafening roar, blood rained down, severed limbs and fragments flew in all directions, the scene utterly tragic.

"Even more domineering than the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art, it renders people—utterly useless?" Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella, spoke.

Qin Ming's right foot smashed through a towering ancient tree and became embedded in a black and gold boulder, while his arm dangled from a thousand-year-old vine on the stone wall.

His head flew diagonally into the sky, nearly being snatched away by a huge night bird.

The Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella followed, startling the ferocious bird away. It said, "Perhaps I should find someone else to follow? The guild leader would be quite good."

Qin Ming opened his eyes in anger and said, "Little Yellow, are you born rebellious too?!"

A seductive figure appeared on the umbrella, saying, "No, that's not true. I was just worried you'd be discouraged and lose heart. I wanted to help you wake up and get back on your feet."

Qin Ming's head slowly descended towards the mountainous area.

He looked closely and found it to be a truly horrific sight, with various pieces of "flesh and blood" scattered about, hanging from the southeast branches.

The figure on the umbrella looked around and said, "Hurry up and rebuild the landscape, or you'll be sitting at the same table as Pei Gong."

Qin Ming wanted to hit Little Yellow, but he didn't expect it to be so good at "trolling" people, even at a time like this, it was still teasing him.

Little Yellow said, "Hanging on the highest peak is a good omen, foretelling a bright future."

Qin Ming's face immediately darkened. In fact, his face was covered in cracks, and his entire head was almost torn to pieces, a truly gruesome sight.

He used his Adhesion Force to move through this area, piecing together his body. Even the blood he spat out began to flow backward, not a single drop was spilled.

His body was covered in cracks, and he was in excruciating pain. These injuries were not only physical, but also to his Spirit Body, leaving him riddled with holes.

"Won't my New Life be abruptly interrupted by this sudden explosion?" Qin Ming frowned.

He carefully sensed it; the faint traces of New Life were still there, though their pace had slowed.

"It's alright, I'll replenish myself a bit more." He sat there cross-legged, silently regulating his breathing.

The Two Figurines and the Little Worm moved, roasting the Dragon Silkworm in the mountains and forests, and a fragrant aroma immediately filled the air.

"It's awful, the pain is excruciating." Qin Ming sighed. Anyone else might have died tonight, and even with his exceptional talent, he almost couldn't withstand it.

He muttered to himself, "Once I've traversed this path and revised the Silk Book Method to be flawless, Wen Rui and the others will be able to cultivate without any hidden dangers."

Soon after, the golden-brown, glistening Dragon Silkworm skewers appeared in Qin Ming's hands. He devoured them with gusto, his mouth brimming with Divine Rosy Radiance.

His body became scalding hot again, and the New Life that had slowed down due to his body bursting open accelerated once more.

At the same time, he was practicing the Destiny- Life Altering Scripture, correcting the problematic energy flow from earlier and adjusting it to a method more suitable for him.

"Is my body about to explode again?!"

However, the subsequent disintegration only involved parts of the body breaking apart, rather than the entire body exploding.

Of course, this kind of local disintegration can sometimes involve half of the body.

"This is fucking difficult!"

Qin Ming had never been in such pain as he was today. The New Life process lasted for three days and three nights, and it was still not over.

He constantly modified the Silk Book Method, correcting the energy flow path to suit himself, occasionally causing a sudden burst of energy that interrupted his New Life, requiring him to start over.

On several occasions, the New Life flames almost went out completely, nearly failing to reignite.

"Hiss, there were three times when I was very close to death!"

Qin Ming combed through the Various Scriptures, and the most crucial variable— the Sky Supporting Force —was fully incorporated into his work. It wasn't very well-behaved and was still being tamed.

"It's fierce, domineering, and represents the limit of power—it's truly terrifying. The key is that it suits me perfectly and aligns with the New Life System!" Qin Ming was in pain, but also full of anticipation.

"Even at this point, they're still exploding?" Qin Ming sighed, his left foot breaking off and flying out, embedding itself in the rocky cliff in front of him, blood blooming everywhere.

On the fourth day, the restless Various Scriptures within his body, like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea, gradually converged, were tamed, and merged into one.

However, at this moment, after the Sky Supporting Force was integrated, the True Form behind him also changed, leading to a new crisis. The True Form had no fixed form and was about to tear him apart.

Behind it, the Sky Bearing True Form emerged—a pair of enormous golden hands, incredibly violent, as if to rip open the night sky and recreate the Heaven-Opening.

Long ago, Qin Ming had already been practicing the Sky Supporting Force, and a pair of enormous hands had appeared behind him, but they were only similar in form and not in spirit.

Now these golden hands are even more terrifying, so lifelike, representing the limit of power within the same realm.

Because of its intrusion, the other True Form also became agitated, such as Thousand Cicadas, Sun Wheel, Lunar Yin, Starry Sky, and Endless Sword Light, all of which became chaotic.

Soon after, Qin Ming was torn apart by his many True Form.

"It happened again."

He lamented that problematic scriptures were indeed dangerous.

He reorganized the situation until both the Chaos Force and the True Form were completely subdued and stabilized, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"It actually lasted for five days and five nights!" Qin Ming exhaled a breath of stale air. He had never experienced such a long transformation before, and he almost suffocated in his cocoon like a silkworm trying to become a butterfly.

"It's alright, but it hasn't reached the ideal state we anticipated." He examined himself and reflected on his own actions.

For example, the Sky Bearing True Form only has a pair of large hands. In Qin Ming's vision, the arms will eventually materialize and eventually intertwine to form a complete body.

Clearly, this requires a step-by-step approach and cannot be accomplished overnight.

He even estimated that he could not fulfill this ambition in the Fifth Great Realm.

"I've reached the Second Heaven of the Master Realm." Qin Ming stood up, not as joyful as he had imagined, because even this small step upwards had been so difficult.

He pondered, and since the Strange Medicine, the Dragon Silkworm, was still effective for him, could he continue to break through the barrier?

He quickly rejected the idea; he needed time to process it.

This time, the reason he faced such a difficult situation, with his New Life process almost interrupted, is not only due to the hidden dangers of the Silk Book Method and the True Form Tribulation, but also possibly the influence of Great Realm Obstacle.

Qin Ming has only recently broken through the major barrier and become Master; he still needs more time to accumulate experience.

Even in those Supreme Dao Field, after a peerless genius breaks through the Master level, they need to recuperate for a long time and restrain themselves, and it is impossible for them to continue to make rapid progress in the same year.

"Take it easy." After being taught a harsh lesson by reality, Qin Ming really didn't want to be too radical. Otherwise, this time he might not just end up hanging himself, but possibly being buried in a foreign land.

"Yes, one should be content!" He relaxed.

When you think about how he went through five days and five nights of life-or-death ordeal and successfully broke through, it's equivalent to six or seven years of arduous cultivation in his normal state.

In an instant, Qin Ming was satisfied!

Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella spun above his head, asking, "Are you alright?"

"What could possibly be wrong with me?" Qin Ming stood up, stretched his limbs, then gasped. Had this transformation damaged his very essence?

The figure on the umbrella swayed and said, "It's alright, make sure you're comfortable. I've saved the whole process for you using Memory Crystal so you can review it."

Qin Ming strongly suspected that Little Yellow intentionally recorded his extremely tragic experiences. As for the recap, did he really need to look at the Memory Crystal? He wouldn't forget any detail of his own real experiences.

He looked at the Two Figurines and the Little Worm; the two of them remained motionless. It was easier to deal with dead people like this.

However, when Qin Ming looked at them, he felt that Little Yellow was much more reliable.

"Could it be that the physical instincts of the Two Figurines and the Little Worm have recorded Entire Process? Will they still remember it after they are revived someday?"

How about it? I'm stronger than you were back then, aren't I?

Soon, Qin Ming was exhausted. After saying goodbye to Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella, he lay down in the forest and fell into a deep sleep.

At the same time, golden threads pierced through his flesh and blood, flowing with iridescent light, as if applying medicine, fully arming him from head to toe.

"Cultivation Method for the dead—" Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella said softly.

The Two Figurines and the Little Worm remained motionless as they faced Qin Ming.

Qin Ming slept for four days and four nights. While he was in a deep slumber, he transformed this mountain area into a small, vibrant Blessed Land. With each breath he took, the plants glowed, and the ancient vines turned into spirit vines.

"Oh, you look full of energy. Have you completely healed the torn soul and some fundamental wounds?"

Qin Ming got up, stretched, and felt better than ever before, as if he had inexhaustible energy. He was now full of vigor and vitality.

"I've integrated the Sky Supporting Force, and I feel like I'm about to ascend to the heavens, wanting to carve a huge hole in the Sky Curtain?" Clearly, this was an overly powerful illusion he experienced after his breakthrough.

After his body New Life, he was in such great shape that he became too relaxed.

Qin Ming even felt that if Cao Qianqiu were to pass by, he would have the urge to slap Lao Cao twice.

Looking down at the figure beneath the Yellow Gauze Canopy Umbrella in the night sky, the figure muttered to itself, "The Night Mist World is vast and boundless, extremely dangerous. Its innermost region is mysterious and endless, never before set foot there. I once took human form, but perished along the way. Qin Ming —he's an Anomalies. How far will he ultimately go?"

After Qin Ming regained consciousness and learned that he had been unconscious for four days and four nights, he quickly released the commander.

She was unharmed, enveloped in a gentle glow, and unaffected.

The president was not surprised to see him break through, and remained calm.

Qin Ming realized that the president's calm demeanor indicated that he was quite confident and had a strong foundation.

"So, if her spirit were to return and we were to fight at the same level, she wouldn't be afraid of me?" Qin Ming pondered silently.

Even so, he felt he still needed to work hard to improve himself and continue to absorb the True Scripture!

The Great Sun Tathagata True Form, the Qi Qing True Form — the Myriad Aperture Illumination Art — Qin Ming still has a path to take; the future is bright, and if he can go all the way, he is destined for great glory.

In the Bodhisattva's Dojo, Qin Ming stood, gazing intently at the Black Lotus.

"It's been so long, perhaps we can use some special methods to help Xiang Yiwu and Little Wu get through the cycle of reincarnation." Not long after, Qin Ming turned his head and looked southwest, which was the general direction of the Tushita Palace.
