Before he knew it, a hundred years had passed.
Jiang Ding had remained immersed in cultivation and research, forgetting food and sleep.
In terms of cultivation, having reached the Dao Integration Mid Stage, he needed to continuously accumulate mana and divine consciousness in order to climb toward a higher realm. Furthermore, his second Rule Adjustment Nirvana of Dao Integration should naturally occur within two thousand years. Once his Dharma body and divine soul adapted to the first Rule Adjustment, the second would descend, with no threshold to overcome.
Throughout this process, Jiang Ding needed to constantly deduce the rules of the Great Dao of Law Annihilation and his own path, so that he could properly grasp the process of Rule Adjustment Nirvana.
Jiang Ding had originally prepared all of this and believed it was already perfect.
But now, he had discovered an even better road ahead!
A better reference subject!
"Heavens!"
"What a beautiful arm..."
Inside the Mysterious Immortal Arm Laboratory, Jiang Ding stared in amazement at a diagram of a tiny flesh slice before him and the scan image from a Spirit Particle Fate Rules Tunnel Microscope.
The Ancient God Patriarch being unable to damage this arm did not mean the Immortal Sect could not.
Several decades earlier, the 'Ninth-Order Forbidden Nuclear Weapon Scalpel' jointly developed by the Immortal Sect's Great Sun Sword Master, Yuan, and the others had been completed. Its principle was very simple: continuously constrain the power of Forbidden Nuclear Weapons, then unleash it in a concentrated burst upon a point the size of a fingernail, forcibly reaching Ninth-Order destructive power.
This scalpel had extremely severe limitations.
First, every use consumed fifteen Quasi-Ninth Order Forbidden Nuclear Weapons. Second, it required a disposable scalpel forged from Quasi-Ninth Order materials. Finally, it possessed no actual combat capability whatsoever.
