Inside the palace.

This place had long been well-managed by Chen Qingyan.

She and her husband are going to live here for a long time, so she definitely needs to tidy it up and make it look like a home.

Therefore, the palace has been greatly changed. She expanded it and added a small garden, which is planted with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants. Chen Qingyan likes it very much, and her husband has been ordered not to stay there for long.

The main problem is that Jiang Ping likes to use her flowers and plants to practice his methods every time he makes a breakthrough, which is not good and needs to be changed.

Not far from the small garden, there is a tall, Crooked-neck Tree with a tea table under it.

Chen Qingyan found a type of Tree Leaf here that can be steeped in water to make a drink. It tastes pretty good, like tea, and is very refreshing.

At that moment, she was grinding tea leaves, and the teapot next to her was bubbling away.

Bang bang bang!

Suddenly, the tea table shook, water from the teapot overflowed, and she trembled all over.

"Is it not over yet?"

Chen Qingyan looked up at the figure in the distance, where the light still shone brightly, and auspicious signs and strange phenomena continued to appear.

More than a month has passed since Jiang Ping began his attempt to break through to the Greater Golden Core.

The other party showed no sign of ending the conversation, and the fluctuations emanating from the husband became increasingly astonishing, with the overflowing Qi Mechanism capable of causing major earthquakes and the cycle of life and death, with everything experiencing multiple cycles of growth Withering and Blooming within a single day.

Chen Qingyan stopped paying attention, brewed herself a cup of tea, drank it all, and began her daily cultivation practice.

Her husband is making rapid progress, and she is also improving. Since deciding to focus on the Life Dao Path, she has already grasped Eighth Level Concept Realm Changshi Fist. After a while, she will also be able to touch upon the Life Trend.

However, not long after Chen Qingyan began practicing the Changshi Fist, she felt herself transform into light.

Thump!

A hissing sound echoed in all directions, and Chen Qingyan was startled. She sensed an unparalleled Saber Intent.

As she gazed into the distance, she saw that the strange phenomena that had submerged Jiang Ping were mixed together, eventually forming a glaring blade.

The blade flashed, turning the entire area golden, as if the sky and the ground were bathed in light.

Chen Qingyan changed. She discovered that where the sword light shone, everything Withering and Blooming. Finally, as an even stronger Artistic Conception surged, they seemed to return to nothingness, a true Samsara.

However, as Jiang Ping opened his eyes, the world fell silent, and everything came to an abrupt end.

Only that single blade of light hovered, interwoven with the principles of law, radiating a terrifying Qi Mechanism.

In mid-air, Jiang Ping gently touched the blade of light, and it instantly dispersed, transforming into golden characters.

"The Withering and Flourishing Cycle Saber Technique"

Jiang Ping murmured softly, "I did it. I blended the concepts of Life and Death and death and ultimately used my Blade Art to simultaneously unleash two powerful forces."

He seems to have created an invincible Heavenly Saber!

At this moment, the Destiny manifests, adding an extra piece of information:

[Skills: Withering and Flourishing Cycle Saber Momentum Realm (3%), Changshi Fist Momentum Realm (13%), Short Life Saber Momentum Realm (5%)...]

Jiang Ping looked at the golden characters in front of him and raised an eyebrow slightly.

The text is brief, and the concepts only involve the general principles of Blade Art, without any concepts below the Momentum Realm.

"Perhaps, when I reach a higher level of mastery, I can compensate for the shortcomings beneath the sword technique."

"Or perhaps," Jiang Ping pondered for a moment, then muttered to himself:

"This sword Blade Art is unparalleled in its own right, with a very high starting point. At the very least, one must master both the fundamental forces of life and death in order to cultivate it."

He paused for a moment, then stopped thinking about the question and began to examine his own situation.

Jiang Ping discovered that he had reached the Greater Golden Core level, with complex patterns engraved on his Golden Core, carrying a faint sense of Life and Death.

Inside, a powerful river of Magic Power flows, its momentum magnificent and awe-inspiring.

Compared to the Nine Revolutions Perfection, his strength has increased significantly, and he should be able to rival Half-Saint.

But!

Jiang Ping doesn't want to be compared to Half-Saint; he wants to establish himself directly in this field!

Half-Saint is one who explodes their Golden Core, merging all their Magic Power into themselves.

This is the Path of the Martial Artist: the constant pursuit of personal strength, rather than relying on any Dao Fruit.

This step, the second step on the Path of the Martial Saint, is to attain the status of Half-Saint and possess the power of Dharma Image.

For a genius, this step is extremely dangerous. Even Jiang Yuan, the descendant of Jiang Saint and who possesses Saint Blood, almost failed back then.

But for Jiang Ping...

"That's easy."

Jiang Ping chuckled softly, then landed and walked towards his wife.

However, with each step he took, the surrounding area erupted in riots, creating a terrifying scene that almost formed two opposing sides, one of yin and one of yang, one of life and one of death.

To Jiang Ping's left, All Things Flourish and flourish, and Spring Thunder roars.

On the right, all things perish, decaying and dying.

They are opposite to each other, yet do not interfere with each other, and are neatly divided into two sides.

With each step Jiang Ping took, the forces of Life and Death and death erupted with even stronger fluctuations, and he himself underwent an astonishing transformation.

The Golden Core had already shattered, and Magic Power flowed out, engulfing Jiang Ping's entire body.

Breaking through this barrier is a painful process, and many breakthroughs to the Greater Golden Core require the protection of Half-Saint.

But at this moment, he felt quite enjoyable; it was the wonderful feeling of his strength increasing rapidly.

His physical body, his limbs and bones, were undergoing a transformation, becoming denser and stronger. It was almost perceptible that every cell was being Baptism by Magic Power, constantly strengthening and undergoing a significant leap.

At the same time, Jiang Ping's Spiritual power was also constantly increasing, and it seemed that the fourth miniature figure could be condensed.

Thump!

Just then, a rumbling Thunder Sound came, and Jiang Ping realized it was his own heartbeat.

Because his body had suddenly grown a hundred or a thousand times taller, almost bursting the Dao Mountain.

The power of Dharma Image!

I first witnessed this tactic when we were ambushed.

He was too insignificant at that time and almost died at the hands of the Su Family's Half-Saint.

Now, he himself has established himself in this field, capable of moving mountains and destroying cities, his physical body is terrifyingly powerful.

Half-Saint Jiang!

At this moment, Jiang Ping discovered that he could wield an even more powerful force, and his strength doubled.

His body was bathed in light and rain, merging with the great forces of Life and Death, as if he himself were a terrifying Reincarnation Heavenly Saber.

Furthermore, Jiang Ping truly achieved Unity of Heaven and Man, his mind became clear and his thoughts and feelings deepened.

"I have the highest comprehension of the two Heavenly Art Life and Death."

Jiang Ping suddenly realized that this was the consequence of choosing a path: the physical body bears the weight of the world, and one is more gifted at understanding Life and Death.

At the same time, the fourth miniature figure gradually solidified in the Consciousness Space.

The True Self and the Three Little Persons dance excitedly, as if joyfully welcoming new companions.

After establishing himself as Half-Saint, Jiang Ping concealed his Dharma Image and returned to his wife's side.

Chen Qingyan brewed him a cup of tea and gently congratulated him.

There are very few Half-Saint in the entire Great Li.

Moreover, he was Half-Saint achieved through the fusion of two Heavenly Art. The strength of the Number One Under Heaven Half-Saint back then was definitely inferior to Jiang Ping's.

"This is just the beginning. Half-Saint is not enough. To leave this place and destroy the Shang Family, you must at least forge a true Saint Body."

Jiang Ping said.

He didn't know what was happening outside, whether a great storm was really brewing if the Old Saint passed away, and he was also worried that Jiang Saint and the others would encounter a bloody battle.

Therefore, I need to work harder to achieve Becoming a Saint as soon as possible, and then leave this place to contribute my own strength.

"The Yin Yang Millstone is too powerful. I'm afraid even if you become a saint, you won't be able to shake it."

Chen Qingyan frowned. She had a deep impression of that millstone and was still afraid of it. She didn't want to go through a Life and Death experience again.

It's not necessary to directly contact the millstone.

Jiang Ping suddenly smiled mysteriously.

"What do you mean?" Chen Qingyan asked subconsciously, but she was smart enough to quickly make a rough guess by combining her husband's talent and the many methods he had mastered.

She exclaimed in surprise, "You mean that Void Palm?"

"That's right."

Jiang Ping smiled and said, "If we can cultivate it to a higher level, not only will we be able to leave this place, but I believe it will also be the key to leaving Xuanxin Island."

Chen Qingyan was moved. Her husband was very ambitious and his vision extended beyond the present. He had long considered how to leave Xuanxin Island.

In other words, Jiang Ping not only wanted to study the two Heavenly Art Life and Death, but also the Invincible Technique of Void Palm.

"Can your talent handle it?"

Chen Qingyan couldn't help but worry. No matter how talented one is, one must proceed step by step. Trying to Treading the path three different Heavenly Art at the same time might delay one's progress.

Please trust your husband.

Jiang Ping smiled.

After mastering the Invincible Life and Death Invincible Technique, he clearly felt that the difficulty of deduction had increased exponentially. In the previous six months, he hadn't practiced the Void Palm much.

However, having established himself as Half-Saint, and with the addition of a small figure, he should be able to progress much faster in the path of Life and Death.

Therefore, it's time to put the practice of the Void Palm on the agenda.

"Oh, right."

Jiang Ping suddenly looked at his wife and laughed, "You're asking me to protect the Innate Spiritual Spring because you want a child?"

Chen Qingyan blushed; she was only talking about the future, stating a possibility.

Before she could say anything, she noticed her husband had already come over and started kneading her Yuanyuan.

"Then let's take one."

Time flies, and six years have passed in the blink of an eye.
