Breakthrough to the Desolate Realm!

[This year, you saw another news story.]

[It is also a Second-Class Star, named Tiandou Star.]

Human Race make up more than half of the population on this planet.

[A few years ago, the entire Tiandou Star was unified by a man who called himself "I".]

[The first imperial edict issued by this "I" after unifying the Tiandou Star was titled "Alien Slaughter Edict."]

[That is, slaughter all Alien Race Human Race, and exchange each Alien Race head for a bounty at the local government.]

[In an instant, a bloody storm swept across Tiandou Star, as Alien Race fought tooth and nail with Human Race for survival.]

[But the above is just a brief overview of today's news.]

[The main text of the news report states that the Heavenly River Peace Bureau, under the Holy Dragon Society, declared "the Emperor" guilty of his actions.]

[Furthermore, the Peace Bureau has led 100,000 Peace Army to Tiandou Star, under the pretext of "maintaining peaceful coexistence among all races," to eradicate the illegitimate regime established by "I."]

["This 'I' should be Li Wentian."]

[You can only silently memorize the time and place mentioned in the news, hoping to help these deceased friends in your next life if you have the chance.]

At this moment, the scale of the universe renders you powerless.

[This may have also appeared in news reports from Shen Yang.]

[The news article mentioned that Human Race Mastery multiple skills and excelled in a skills competition held on a First-Class Star, attracting various forces to vie for his services.]

[As for the Sword Master, you've also seen reports that seem to confirm this.]

[Amidst First-Class Star flourishing of traditional Chinese Opera Star arts, a "superstar" has emerged.]

[This person is a Human Race swordsman, not an actor.]

He was known for his chivalrous deeds, made many friends, and was quite famous in the area.

His personal charm was irresistible; the residents of the Opera Star community stopped chasing after the actors and began to admire this swordsman.

[Looks a lot like the Sword Master.]

Are they all in the Tianhe Star System?

[If these suspected reports really do point to your deceased relatives.]

[You speculate that although the destinations of the Ascension Path, randomly combined through "life" and "death," are all different, they are very likely all within the Tianhe Star System.]

"Although a local galaxy is quite large, at least it doesn't span multiple galaxies, so there's still a chance for them to come together."

[One Hundred Sixty-Eighth Year, age 192.]

[The Ji Family Ancestral Land.]

[You told Ji Wuqing the truth.]

"You're only at the Core Formation Realm? That's strange. How do you know Divine Ability?"

"Ruthless, I trust you, so I'm telling you everything. I want to use the Blood Replacement Secret Technique to break through to the Desolate Realm, and I hope you can help me this time."

"Helping you is no problem, but is it really necessary? You are now a great general of the Ji Family. Why rush to improve your cultivation? Wouldn't it be better to cultivate slowly?"

"Your Blood Replacement Secret Technique seems unreliable to me; it could easily kill you if you're not careful."

"Risks are inherent, but the chances of success are greater."

Furthermore, I don't want my sense of security to come from external sources.

Although the Ji Family is powerful, the Human Race is ultimately weak, and no one knows what unexpected events may occur tomorrow.

[There's one more thing you didn't mention: Ji Baiming has been pressuring you to get married a lot these past few years, and she's no longer allowing you to enter Guxiao Mountain unless you're willing to marry Ji Wuqing.]

[Ji Wuqing understands your difficulties and nodded.]

"Okay, I'll help you!"

[The Blood Replacement Secret Technique has begun!]

[Ji Wuqing has prepared a secluded cultivation place for you, undisturbed, located in a secret chamber beneath Wanan City.]

[Both the interior and exterior of the secret chamber are protected by robust defensive arrays, making entry difficult for outsiders.]

[Inside the secret room, there are only the two of you.]

[You are completely naked, wearing only a pair of shorts, sitting cross-legged on the Blood Replacement Array.]

[Before starting, you have already taken the necessary Pill for the Blood Replacement Secret Technique: Blood-Generating Pill and Blood-Protecting Pill.]

[One is used for rapid blood regeneration, and the other is used to ensure short-term survival after blood is drained.]

[This process cannot be self-healed using the effects of certain deities, so you don't have deities like "Wolverine" equipped.]

[A series of thin, needle-like magical Law Artifact are inserted into major acupoints throughout your body.]

[You slam your palm on the ground, activating the Blood Replacement Array.]

"The ruthlessness has begun."

[Ji Wuqing looked at you, who were covered in thorns like a hedgehog, and nodded gently.]

"Don't worry, I'm here."

This process is painful.

[The blood transfusion needle draws blood from your entire body and sprays it onto the formation, infusing it with power.]

[This power then flows back into your body, helping you to break through the barrier of your realm.]

At first, you could grit your teeth and persevere without making a sound.

[But as the blood is completely drained, the pain and fear lingering on the edge of death make you instinctively scream.]

["Ah!!!!"]

Ji Wuqing watched from the side, her brows furrowed.

[She can't just sit idly by; she constantly releases Divine Power into you, stimulating your body to generate Divine Power.]

[Having lost a lot of blood, you look like a dried-up corpse, which is quite creepy.]

[But as the formation activated and the medicinal properties took effect, your blood gradually returned, and your body recovered as if it had been inflated.]

[Then, more blood was drawn, accompanied by a painful scream.]

[The entire process needs to be repeated at least ten times.]

Seeing you torture yourself to the point of being unrecognizable, Ji Wuqing couldn't bear it any longer and turned her face away.

"Chen Yi, your cultivation has reached this point?"

Your mental state is already clouded.

[A subconscious response.]

"I want to become stronger!"

"Among the masses, reaching the Core Formation is already an unattainable height, let alone for someone as young as you. Why force yourself to this point?"

["Unattainable? Then why do the strong bully me because I am powerless and seize my possessions! Why do Alien Race races enslave my body and kill my compatriots! They don't even spare a single child!"]

[Ji Wuqing turned her face towards you, her gaze gradually hardening.]

[A surge of divine Divine Power welled up within her, and she began to utilize the power of Divine Art, paving the way for you at any cost.]

[During this time, you smelled blood, but it wasn't yours.]

[After everything calmed down, you fainted for a while.]

[When you woke up again, you saw Ji Wuqing standing guard beside you.]

[Ji Wuqing's long hair flowed freely, and she still wore that radiant smile.]

"Congratulations, you succeeded."

[Upon introspection, you see the imprints of those Divine Ability clearly visible on your Origin Core.]

[At the same time, flame-shaped streams of light appeared around the Origin Core; these were the Divine Power Source.]

When Cultivator enters the Desolate Realm, their Origin Qi transforms into Divine Power, and the Divine Power Source surrounds their Origin Core core.

[The cultivation of the Desolate Realm involves increasing the strength and quantity of one's Divine Power Source through Qi Refining Technique.]

"I've Desolate Realm!"

At this moment, you can equip 33 different affixes!

[In the past, you could carry all the entries you needed, and struggle with which to include them!]

[You were so excited that you gave Ji Wuqing a bear hug and patted her back hard.]

"Thank you! Ruthless! Without your strong support, I definitely wouldn't have been able to break through!"
