Immortal Monarch Realm
The next day, Zhang Xingfeng also began his seclusion. At this time, Sui Feng, Lang Feng, and Zhang Xingfeng of the Tianxin Sect Yan Bao brothers also followed suit. The three brothers had asked Little Dragon for a lot of spiritual blood. Their goal this time was to break through the Form Transformation Stage and reach the Nascent Soul Realm.
Sui Feng went into seclusion because he was bored. Due to the Heavenly Tribulation, he couldn't go out, and he didn't have anything to do within the sect. Moreover, he had no interest in playing with the Little Dragon, so he had no choice but to go into seclusion.
Lang Feng was drawn to a secret passage in the "Sword Immortal Manual," which stated that if one fused with a celestial sword before Tribulation Transcendence to form Sword Nascent Soul, and then used this Sword Nascent Soul to bear the power of heavenly lightning and be tempered by it, it would grow into Sword Nascent Soul with lightning attributes. In the future, when attacking, the celestial sword would inevitably be imbued with the power of heavenly lightning. This was precisely the reason for Lang Feng's seclusion.
Zhang Xingfeng, however, had long wanted to go into seclusion. Having experienced numerous life-or-death battles and fought in various locations, he had gained considerable insights and understanding. In particular, his experience killing sixteen Demon Emperor and one Demon Lord on Black Prison Star inspired Zhang Xingfeng to master the fifth form of the "Zero Point Split Strike." Furthermore, possessing the Extreme Fire Crystal, Zhang Xingfeng could further cultivate his Skyfire Body, break through to the Skyfire Body, and achieve Immortal Undying Body ... Zhang Xingfeng had far too many things to do.
Zhang Xingfeng walked into his secret room, which was also the secret room Zhang Xingfeng used in his previous life.
The secret room contained only a futon, and on three of the four walls were some talismans and Method Formula. These were some of the more profound talismans in the "Heart Sutra". In his previous life, Zhang Xingfeng was not talented enough, so he carved these talismans on the walls so that he could see them at any time and maybe he could understand them at some point.
On the wall directly opposite the paving stones was a piece of paper of unknown material, upon which was written a calm and ancient character for "Tao." However, the talismans on the other walls seemed somewhat out of place, perhaps because they were too messy and chaotic.
Of course, Zhang Xingfeng could see through these simple talismans at a glance. The talisman sword techniques of the "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art" became increasingly difficult as you progressed. The first three forms were of moderate difficulty, but from the fourth form onwards, there was a leap in difficulty, and the difficulty increased sharply. Even with Zhang Xingfeng's experience of having seen the attack methods of several great demon emperors, he almost failed to comprehend it. In the end, he found the pattern in the first three forms, slowly practiced, and finally exhausted his mental energy to learn the seven major sword techniques.
Zhang Xingfeng closed his eyes slightly, and a faint fiery red light began to emanate from his body...
Three Grade 3 Crimson Essence Pill suddenly flew out from the sky and began to hover around Zhang Xingfeng's body. The fiery red color on Zhang Xingfeng's body began to fade slowly, but the three Crimson Essence Pill continued to hover.
In the world of cultivation, time knows no bounds. In the blink of an eye, thirty years had passed for Zhang Xingfeng.
Over the past thirty years, the number of disciples in the Tianxin Sect has increased significantly, and its reputation has grown even more renowned after the bored Little Dragon killed many Cultivation World demons in the Tianxin Sect. The lawless Little Dragon, relying on two offensive divine artifacts and the formidable top-tier defensive artifact Dark Gold Divine Armor, is absolutely invincible in the Cultivation World. Even experts like Tian Nan, upon seeing Little Dragon's Dark Gold Divine Armor, can only turn pale and dare not show the slightest disrespect.
Under Little Dragon's fame, the status of the Tianxin Sect has become increasingly high. Every day, many disciples from powerful human Aristocratic Clan come to the gate of the Tianxin Sect through the teleportation array to beg for entry. This shows how prosperous the Cultivation World is.
In the City of Heavenly Chasm, the Tianxin Sect, with its Top-grade Immortal Artifact and the strong support of the Tianlong Sect and the Fengyuan Gate, has established friendly relations with many sects. The Tianxin Sect has also gained considerable influence in the Immortal Realm. Zhang Xingfeng once ordered Zhong Heng to search for the past generations of the Tianxin Sect's grandmasters. Over the past thirty years, Zhong Heng has relied on many connections, but he has only managed to find Zhang Xingfeng's former senior master, Tianyanzi.
When they found Tianyanzi situation was even worse than Tianchenzi's. Tianchenzi, at least, was Luo Tian Heavenly Immortal- ranking immortal), and his life was somewhat better. But Tianyanzi lacked Tianchenzi's unparalleled brilliance. After a thousand or two thousand years, he was only Heavenly Immortal (a low-ranking immortal), the lowest level in the immortal realm. Moreover, he had no background whatsoever, making him vulnerable to bullying by anyone. In the immortal realm, Tianyanzi was like a pitiful little rabbit among wolves. Fortunately, he was eventually brought back by the Fengyuan Gate, otherwise... As for the other grandmasters, well, countless seniors of the Tianxin Sect had experienced Tianyanzi's fate. Many grandmasters were probably killed without anyone knowing. It's lamentable... This is the tragic state of someone without any background.
Tianyanzi was naturally sent back to the Tianxin Sect. Upon returning, he immediately had access to Top-grade Immortal Artifact and immortal crystals. Tianyanzi was so excited that his eyes turned red, and he talked with his two fellow disciples Tianchenzi, for several days and nights.
Ten years after Zhang Xingfeng entered seclusion, the three Yan Bao brothers emerged, already three Nascent Soul Realm experts. They were second only to Zhang Xingfeng in terms of skill. However, in terms of pure attack power, they still lagged behind Little Dragon. After all, Little Dragon was practically a fortress.
That day.
Zhang Xingfeng suddenly opened his eyes in the secret room. At this moment, there was only one Crimson Essence Pill left spinning around him.
"I never expected that the mysterious pillar of light in the Hall of Illusory Fire God would be so powerful. It actually made my Limitless Power much purer. With the help of the Crimson Essence Pill, I actually spent thirty years to reach the early stage of Immortal Monarch in one fell swoop. It's really rare!"
Immortal Monarch early stage!
Zhang Xingfeng beamed with joy, having reached the Immortal Monarch realm in one fell swoop—a remarkable achievement indeed. At this moment, Zhang Xingfeng was no longer a nobody who could be bullied at will.
If Immortal Emperor didn't possess top-tier divine artifacts, Zhang Xingfeng could probably fight a mid-stage Immortal Emperor by relying on a few top-tier artifacts and the Eight Divisions Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor. However, once Immortal Emperor possessed top-tier divine artifacts, Zhang Xingfeng could at most fight to a draw with an early-stage Immortal Emperor.
Back then, the Black Sun Demon Lord didn't possess any top-tier divine artifacts. Zhang Xingfeng estimated that he could fight a mid-stage Immortal Emperor with a few top-tier divine artifacts and the Eight Divisions Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor Dragons. However, once Immortal Emperor possessed a top-tier divine artifact, Zhang Xingfeng could at most fight to a draw with an early-stage Immortal Emperor.
Back then, the Black Sun Demon Lord didn't possess any top-tier divine artifacts. If Zhang Xingfeng hadn't relied on the mysterious power of the "Wei" mark at the end, he would probably be finished. However, if Zhang Xingfeng were to fight the Black Sun Demon Lord now, he could probably still fight him to a draw. Of course, this is all predicated on the Black Sun Demon Lord not possessing any top-tier divine artifacts.
If the Black Sun Demon Lord possessed the Black Sun Divine Armor of the past, and used the power of the Demon Lord to wield a top-tier defensive artifact, Zhang Xingfeng would be unable to break through the Black Sun Demon Lord's defenses and would only be able to be attacked by the Black Sun Demon Lord.
The effects of top-tier artifacts vary depending on the level of mastery they are in. This is the reason why.
Having reached this level, Zhang Xingfeng was one step closer to their goal.
"Hmm... early stage of Immortal Monarch. Hehe... I used to be able to easily deal with late-stage Demon Emperor Immortal Monarch, and now I can deal with early-stage Immortal Emperor." Zhang Xingfeng smiled, and suddenly his Zhang Xingfeng Divine Sense swept across the area, and his smile became even brighter.
"Oh, this is wonderful! The three Yan brothers have already reached the strength of Nine Heavens Profound Immortal Yan Bao. Hmm... wait a minute, help them reforge the Yan Yang Three Thorns. My Qi Cauldron is now at the Black level, and the Jie Sha Blades I forged last time was only mid-level. These Yan Yang Three Thorns can also reach the level of mid-level divine artifacts. Has Sui Feng finally come out of seclusion? That kid has been in seclusion since I came back last time. Hmm, I don't have many divine artifacts left. Two of the nine belong to Yu Yan. One sword-shaped attack divine artifact is Lang Feng. I gave two to Bi Yan, so there are four left. I'll give one to Sui Feng, that leaves three." Zhang Xingfeng thought to himself.
Suddenly, Zhang Xingfeng frowned, then scanned the area with his Divine Sense again, exclaiming with delight, "Oh my, Tianyanzi- Master Tianyanzi is back too! That's wonderful!" Suddenly, Zhang Xingfeng became troubled again. "Now there are only three divine artifacts left. I originally wanted to refine two of the three Qi Mei Staff I obtained on Tianluan Star into a linked Jie Sha Blades, and the remaining one into a divine artifact. Together with the other three, I would give them to my four Loose Immortal brothers—a total of four divine artifacts—but..."
Biao Lao Er, Zhaoyun, and the other three were Zhang Xingfeng's closest friends in his previous life. Of course, Zhang Xingfeng had prepared four divine artifacts for his brothers, otherwise he wouldn't have given one as a reward. Now Zhang Xingfeng regrets it to death. The sudden appearance of his senior uncle caught Zhang Xingfeng off guard. However, his senior uncle is an elder after all, and Zhang Xingfeng secretly made a decision in his heart.
Zhang Xingfeng emerged from seclusion without telling anyone, and immediately Teleportation away. His destination was none other than Sui Feng's residence.
"Junior brother, junior brother!" Zhang Xingfeng knocked lightly on the door a few times.
With a creak, the wooden door opened, Sui Feng, who had already opened it, was overjoyed to see Zhang Xingfeng at Sui Feng glance. "Senior brother, I only found out you had gone into seclusion after I came out of seclusion. What bad luck! Now you've finally come out of seclusion."
Zhang Xingfeng smiled and walked into the room before saying, "I'm just out for a bit. I'll go back to seclusion later."
Upon hearing this, Sui Feng was immediately taken aback and quickly asked, "Continue your seclusion? Senior brother, why are you in such a hurry? Why don't you get together with everyone?"
Zhang Xingfeng said, "I have now reached the Immortal Monarch realm, but my body is still a deep purple Skyfire Body. However, I can feel that I should be able to cultivate the Immortal Undying Body. I want to go all out and reach the Immortal Undying Body realm."
Upon hearing this, Sui Feng's eyes immediately lit up, and he exclaimed, "The Immortal Undying Body! Ah, it's said to be the strongest body. Senior Brother, is that true?"
Zhang Xingfeng smiled and nodded. Suddenly, Zhang Xingfeng hand lit up, and a mid-grade sword-shaped divine weapon appeared in Zhang Xingfeng hand. Zhang Xingfeng laughed and said, "Junior brother, this is a mid-grade divine weapon. I'm entrusting it to you!"
Sui Feng was stunned, staring at the divine artifact in Zhang Xingfeng's hand. He had known for a long time that Zhang Xingfeng possessed a divine artifact. He also learned that his junior disciple Bi Yan possessed a divine artifact as soon as he emerged from seclusion. He was very envious, but he knew that Bi Yan was the sect leader and it was perfectly reasonable for her to possess a divine artifact. Moreover, Zhang Xingfeng was in seclusion at the time. Therefore, although Sui Feng wanted it, he had never said anything. After all, divine artifacts were too precious. Now that the divine artifact had suddenly appeared before his eyes, he was so happy that he didn't know what to say.
Sui Feng accepted the divine artifact and said gratefully, "Thank you, Senior Brother!"
Zhang Xingfeng smiled and said, "No need to thank me, there's nothing to thank me for. By the way, you've already reached the Heavenly Immortal realm, so you don't dare to go out anymore, right?"
Upon hearing this, Sui Feng immediately smiled bitterly and said, "What can I do? As soon as I go out, the Immortal Realm will definitely sense my aura and send me to the Immortal Realm. Last time, when I was with my Tianyanzi, I felt the terror of the Immortal Realm, especially the terror of a nobody like me with no background."
Zhang Xingfeng smiled coldly. Of course, he knew how the Immortal Realm treated immortals who had no power and were weak.
"Junior brother, don't worry. One day I'll go to the Immortal Realm with you. The Azure Emperor and Heavenly Emperor of the Immortal Realm have a pretty good relationship with me. Moreover, with my strength, there really aren't many people in the Immortal Realm who can or dare to deal with me." Since reaching the Immortal Monarch realm, Zhang Xingfeng has gained great confidence.
Upon hearing this, Sui Feng quickly asked, "Senior brother, do you mean... you're going to the Immortal Realm with me?"
Zhang Xingfeng smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, once you successfully cultivate the Immortal Undying Body, you'll be able to leave this sect-protecting formation. The Immortal Realm will surely summon you, and you'll be with me. We'll go up together, and then I'll take you to the City of Heavenly Chasm. From there, we'll return directly to the Cultivation World. From then on, you won't have to hide inside the sect-protecting formation all the time, right?" Upon hearing this, Sui Feng 'Zhang Xingfeng face immediately lit up with a smile, and he excitedly said, "Great, great, great! That's wonderful! Senior brother, you must cultivate quickly! Once you successfully cultivate the Immortal Undying Body, we'll go up!"
But how could Sui Feng know that although he did go up, it wasn't because the Celestial Realm summoned him?
Zhang Xingfeng nodded and said to Sui Feng, "Junior brother, I'm going to continue my cultivation now. After I succeed, I'll help the Yan Bao brothers refine the Yan Yang Three Thorns, and then refine a few more divine weapons. Once I've finished refining the divine weapons, I'll take you with me. When my Jie Sha Blades Formation is perfect, I'll have even more confidence."
Sui Feng was stunned when he heard this, and asked blankly, "Refine a divine artifact? You mean a divine artifact? Refine a divine artifact?"
If anyone knew this news, it would be a thunderbolt. In the history of the immortal and demon realms, apart from Pangu, there has never been a master who has ever forged a divine artifact. What does forging a divine artifact represent?
Forging divine artifacts means that you will no longer need to enter the dangerous Ancient God Forbidden Zone to seize those artifacts. You can safely forge divine artifacts within your own territory, and your divine artifacts will be inexhaustible, provided you have enough materials.
Sui Feng's mind went blank. He stared at Zhang Xingfeng for a long time before he came to his senses. At that moment, Zhang Xingfeng instantly rose to a high position in his heart. He knew that his senior brother was truly an extraordinary figure.
Forging divine artifacts!
"Alright, I'm going back to my seclusion now. You just focus on mastering this divine artifact!"
