Chaos Dao Divine Art First Level

Suddenly, the system's voice rang out.

[Congratulations, Host, for repelling the bandits, gaining experience in the battle, and taking a step further on the path of the strong.]

[A Fifth-order Enlightenment Pill is hereby awarded, and the first level of the Chaos Divine Dao Scripture is unlocked.]

The system's voice startled Yang Lingtian. He never expected to receive a reward for repelling bandits.

And the reward was unlocking the first level of the Chaos Divine Dao Scripture. Did that mean what he had learned before was just superficial?

The part he had cultivated before hadn't even reached the first level, and it was already so powerful.

Wouldn't the real first level be even more amazing?

And this was just the first level. Wouldn't there be a second, third, fourth level, and so on in the future?

Damn, didn't that mean this Chaos Divine Dao Scripture could be upgraded?

As expected of the strongest cultivation method, it was incredibly heaven-defying.

Yang Lingtian was overjoyed, meaning he wouldn't lack cultivation methods.

Unlike some cultivators who had to find more advanced cultivation methods after their cultivation base improved.

Otherwise, using the previous, lower-level cultivation methods would make cultivation very slow.

He was already eager to cultivate the first level of the Chaos Divine Dao Scripture.

And he even received a Fifth-order Enlightenment Pill, which enhanced comprehension better than the Enlightenment Pill.

It wanted him to comprehend the first level as soon as possible.

At this moment, Wang Yun walked towards Yang Lingtian with a look of shock, then said with gratitude:

"This time, we are all thanks to Chen Xiangtian, young friend, for helping me hold off a Foundation Establishment expert. Otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to withstand it."

"As a member of the escorting caravan, it's my duty!" Yang Lingtian responded with cupped fists.

The other mercenaries came back to their senses and looked at Yang Lingtian, their eyes full of shock.

Their hearts were greatly impacted. A Qi Refining Stage cultivator was actually comparable to a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator.

This was a leap across a major realm, not just a small realm difference.

This made them admire Yang Lingtian, and they were also very grateful.

It could be said that, from a certain perspective, Yang Lingtian had saved their lives.

Now, his position in this caravan was second only to Wang Liu, after all, he had the strength comparable to a Foundation Establishment Stage expert.

So some mercenaries approached Yang Lingtian one after another, also expressing their gratitude to Yang Lingtian.

Some even proposed to follow Yang Lingtian after this mission.

Or some mercenaries who belonged to mercenary groups wanted to recruit Yang Lingtian into their mercenary groups.

However, Yang Lingtian rejected them all. Being alone was easy and free, and he didn't want to carry any burdens or be restricted.

After this battle, the caravan also planned to rest and recuperate, healing their injuries and such.

They changed to a safer, less crowded place and set up camp again.

Yang Lingtian also took this opportunity to consume the Enlightenment Pill and begin to comprehend the first level of the Chaos Divine Dao Scripture.

The medicinal effects of the Enlightenment Pill began to take effect. His body trembled slightly, and he immediately closed his eyes.

He felt his brain become incredibly clear, as if he was in a fog that was slowly clearing.

His understanding of the first level of the Chaos Divine Dao Scripture gradually deepened.

Half a day later, as the medicinal effects were about to dissipate, he finally comprehended the mysteries of the first level of the Chaos Divine Dao Scripture.

The system's congratulatory voice came.

[Congratulations, Host, for fully comprehending the first level of the Chaos Divine Dao Scripture.]

Yang Lingtian was overjoyed, feeling the different sensation brought about by comprehending the first level of the Chaos Divine Dao Scripture.

Suddenly, the Chaos Bead in his body seemed to be stimulated and trembled violently.

Then, it attracted the surrounding Heaven and Earth spiritual energy, and it frantically poured into Yang Lingtian's Dantian.

Even the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy hundreds of miles away was attracted, and a strong wind suddenly rose, with flying sand and rocks.

Especially within a radius of ten miles centered on Yang Lingtian, gusts of strong wind formed.

Even people with thin bodies could be blown away.

This was formed by the violent surge of Heaven and Earth spiritual energy, and it immediately alarmed the nearby people.

"What happened? Why is there suddenly a strong wind?"

"That's strange. I've passed by this prairie so many times, but I've never seen such a strong wind."

"Could it be that a treasure is appearing nearby?"

"That's not right. It feels like all the wind is blowing towards our camp."

Everyone didn't know what was happening. This was the first time they had encountered such a strange thing.

Suddenly, a powerful aura erupted from Yang Lingtian. It was the aura of a Foundation Establishment expert.

And those intense gusts of wind came to an abrupt halt.

Yang Lingtian had broken through. Having just broken through, he couldn't control his own aura.

The intense aura involuntarily spread outwards, causing the nearby mercenaries to sense this powerful energy.

"It's Yang Xiangtian! He actually broke through!" the crowd exclaimed.

"Could the hurricane just now have been caused by Yang Lingtian's breakthrough?"

"Impossible, how could a breakthrough to Foundation Establishment cause such intense anomalies?"

After stabilizing his cultivation, Yang Lingtian opened his eyes.

At this moment, he was very happy. Not only had he fully comprehended the first level of the Chaos Dao Divine Art, but he had also broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Although most of the spiritual energy was absorbed by the Chaos Bead, the small portion of spiritual power that was separated after being absorbed by the Chaos Bead became very pure.

His Dantian absorbed such pure spiritual power, which meant that although he was only in the early Foundation Establishment Stage.

The purity of the spiritual power in his body had reached the peak of the early Foundation Establishment Stage, not far from the middle Foundation Establishment Stage.

In addition, his physique had a trace of the Divine Ape Physique's characteristics, which made his physical strength reach the peak of the early Foundation Establishment Stage as well.

With the combination of the two, his strength was comparable to the middle Foundation Establishment Stage.

He had taken another step closer on the road to becoming a powerful expert.

At this moment, the system's voice arrived as expected.

[Congratulations to the host for breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, taking another step closer on the road to becoming a powerful expert. As a special reward, you will receive the Mid-grade Spirit Artifact Imperial Sky Boat.]

[The Imperial Sky Boat is a flying Spirit Artifact. Its offense and defense are average, but its speed is extremely fast. It is a rare flying treasure.]

Yang Lingtian was overjoyed again. The system had finally sent him a weapon.

This Imperial Sky Boat had already entered his spatial ring.

Although it wasn't an offensive Spirit Artifact, it was a flying Spirit Artifact that could be used to escape.

At a critical moment, it might allow him to avoid a disaster and serve as a life-saving trump card.

Just as Yang Lingtian was immersed in joy, Wang Yun's congratulatory voice came.

"Congratulations, young friend, on breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage. To see you as a Foundation Establishment expert at just twenty years old."

"Such talent is truly rare," Wang Liu exclaimed.

Yang Lingtian smiled slightly and replied politely, "You flatter me!"

"No need to be modest. When you were at Qi Refining Level 9, you already had strength comparable to a Foundation Establishment expert."

"Now that you've broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, your strength must have increased a lot!"

Wang Liu praised, a hint of envy in his eyes.

"Back then, I was over fifty years old when I broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage. You've only cultivated for a little over ten years to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage."

"This speed is very rare and can be called a genius."

Yang Lingtian still smiled faintly, "Thank you for your praise, there are many geniuses in the world."

"We only need to cultivate diligently and don't need to envy others."

If they knew that he had only spent less than three months breaking through from Qi Refining Level 2 to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

They would be even more surprised!

They might not believe it if he said it. Wang Liu also believed that Yang Lingtian had been stuck at Qi Refining Level 9 for many years.

The power of cultivation in his body had accumulated to a profound level, and he had broken through in one fell swoop under the effect of the Foundation Establishment Pill.

As for the strong wind just now, they just thought it was a coincidence.

Amidst the laughter and conversation, everyone became even more respectful of Yang Lingtian.

This was a kind of admiration and awe for the strong.

Soon, they continued on their way, guarding the caravan to its destination.

Along the way, for an entire day, they did not encounter any more bandits or robbers.

Finally, after several days, they arrived at their destination, Liuyun City.

From then on, their mission was completed. After going to the Mercenary Guild to settle their rewards, they went their separate ways.

Yang Lingtian planned to rest in Liuyun City first.

So he came to a restaurant, ready to enjoy a good meal.

"Esteemed guest, what would you like to eat?"

Just as Yang Lingtian sat down, an enthusiastic waiter greeted him.

"Bring me some stir-fried tiger meat and scrambled eggs with tomatoes," Yang Lingtian said casually.

"Okay, please wait a moment!"

While waiting, a few mercenaries walked in through the tavern door, four in total.

Moreover, they all wore Silver Badges on their chests, clearly Foundation Establishment experts.

As soon as the four entered, their eyes swept around and found the tavern was basically full.

"What rotten luck, there aren't even any seats!" one of the middle-aged men wearing a cyan robe complained.

Another middle-aged man standing next to him glanced around, and finally his gaze settled on Yang Lingtian, who was occupying a table all to himself.

He saw that Yang Lingtian was wearing a Bronze Badge on his chest, and a hint of disdain appeared in his eyes.

He chuckled and said, "Who said there's no space? Isn't there a table over there? We four can squeeze in."

Hearing this, the gazes of the others all converged on Yang Lingtian, and a malicious smile appeared on their faces.

Immediately, they walked over, and one of them reached out and patted Yang Lingtian's shoulder.

With a wicked smile, he said, "This friend, we're taking this table, find another one!"

Yang Lingtian frowned, feeling somewhat displeased.

He raised his head, his gaze quickly sweeping over the four of them.

Although they weren't releasing their aura, and he couldn't accurately determine their specific cultivation levels.

But the Silver Badges on their chests indicated that they were Foundation Establishment Stage experts, but Yang Lingtian wasn't too wary.

He responded calmly, "Sorry, I need this table too, you should go find another one!"

The middle-aged man's face immediately darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "Boy, don't bite off more than you can chew."

"See these Silver Badges on our chests? You dare to disrespect us with just a Bronze Badge?"

"Get out of here right now if you know what's good for you, or you'll regret it."

The commotion here attracted the attention of many people in the tavern, but such things could be said to be commonplace.

It wasn't new to them, so many people looked over with a "watching the show" mentality.
