Xuanli City, within the forbidden area.

Within Cheng Buzheng's Sea of Consciousness, Tricolor Soul Figure with indistinct features sat cross-legged in the void.

The Soul Infant waved its hand.

Below the Soul Infant, the eight slowly rotating Dao Seal vanished into nothingness, leaving only one Dao Seal Dao Seal still slowly rotating, at the center of which a Three-legged Golden Crow with outstretched wings was formed.

This Treasure Art is none other than the Great Sun Golden Crow.

Then the Soul Infant waved its hands, accompanied by the countless gray dots above its Sea of Consciousness Celestial Cycle, which flickered slightly!

Three hundred and sixty-five gray dots descended, each a tiny beam of gray light.

A short while later.

One by one, Dao Seal rapidly condensed.

Before long, the Eight Gates Treasure Art Dao Seal, after being deduced, once again took shape within the Sea of Consciousness!

Then, the Soul Infant waved its hand, and the eight Dao Seal joined the Soul Infant surrounding it.

After re-condensing the Dao Seal!

Cheng Buzheng then took a look at the Spiritual Power Value on the panel.

At this point, he only had a few hundred points of Spiritual Power Value.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

"We really don't have enough Spirit Stone!"

He still had over 50,000 Spirit Stone in his storage bag, which were the result of the three puppets refining pills day and night for more than two years, including the rewards from the No. 3 Puppet's clearing of Demon Beast and Desolate Beast.

It is precisely because Cheng Buzheng is currently at a bottleneck stage and does not need to take pills that he has so many Spirit Stone left.

If it weren't for raising Exotic Beast, Little Roar.

at this time.

He had even more Spirit Stone left.

Of the four Second-order Low-grade Hui Gold Snake Hui Gold Snake and many first-tier Hui Gold Snake that he killed last time, he entrusted Hu Niu to sell them in Huanqiu City.

Even so.

However, Cheng Buzheng also left enough food for Little Roar to advance to the peak of the First-Tier Superior-Grade!

As for the two mid-grade second-tier Hui Gold Snake and the two Second-order High-grade Hui Gold Snake, he didn't deal with them and they are still in his storage bag!

Even Little Roar's rations and the four second-tier mid-grade and high-grade Hui Gold Snake, the harvest was plentiful!

He earned over 40,000 Spirit Stone from selling the Hui Gold Snake Spirit Material.

He used 30,000 Spirit Stone to deduce various techniques, and put the other 10,000 Spirit Stone into his storage bag.

Cheng Buzheng did not use these 50,000 Spirit Stone to further deduce Forbidden Restriction Array, as well as many secret techniques and Treasure Art, especially the <Heaven-Human Perception-Severing Method>.

This was precisely for the Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly six months later.

Let's see if there's any chance of obtaining a Spirit Pill pill to break through the bottleneck!

If he can obtain a breakthrough treasure, he can start his breakthrough once he has refined his essence, energy, and spirit to perfection, without having to wait for that faint, the Unseen opportunity for breakthrough.

According to his estimation, at the current pace of training, it should be almost over in another three to five years!

"I just don't know if I can advance to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage within the remaining eight years?"

"Eight years from now, the garrison mission will come to an end!"

Cheng Buzheng murmured to himself.

He was very confident that he could break through with the help of the Spirit Pill, after all, a solid foundation was not something that could be done easily, and the amount of Spirit Stone he had spent over the years was not a small sum.

Without the aid of a breakthrough Spirit Pill, one can only accumulate knowledge gradually and wait for the day when the time is right for a breakthrough.

I just don't know when that day will come?

Forty-two years have passed since they guarded Xuanli City for fifty years.

Fifty years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Even if you complete the Foundation Establishment Realm, you only have a lifespan of three hundred years, and you'll spend almost one-sixth of that time here.

He didn't want to keep consolidating his foundation and waiting, because there were too many crises and unexpected events in the cultivation world.

perhaps.

The residual power from a single high-level cultivator's duel could turn him into blood and gore!

The only true path is to strive to improve one's own cultivation.

Cheng Buzheng felt a strong sense of crisis.

Immediately.

Cheng Buzheng touched the storage bag at his waist, and a large pile of Spirit Mine appeared in front of him, shimmering with colorful spiritual light!

This was precisely the Spirit Mine he had instructed Hu Niu to acquire, the Spirit Material used to enhance the power of the Mysterious Nether Chisel.

Cheng Buzheng skillfully activated the magical power within his dantian.

Streams of magical power, flowing like water, swirled before him.

Sea of Consciousness.

Three hundred and sixty gray dots emitted a faint glow, then transformed into a large gray net, enveloping him in a flowing stream of magical power!

Strands of Divine Sense, like fine gray lines, traversed within the gray mass of magical power, continuously imprinting and condensing into patterns.

Meanwhile, the ball of magic power suspended above Cheng Buzheng was constantly and subtly changing its shape!

A short while later.

A jade pendant with an unusually familiar shape floated in front of Cheng Buzheng.

See here.

Cheng Buzheng his right hand, and a small, exquisite jade pendant, gleaming with a Small Disc light, hovered above his palm.

With a slight flick.

The Small Disc hovering in the palm of the hand transformed into a stream of light and merged into the gray-textured magic pendant.

moment.

Above it floated the Mysterious Nether Chisel, gleaming with a gray metallic luster and shimmering with wisps of gray mist, looking not only fierce but also extremely evil!

Cheng Buzheng was slightly pleased when he saw the fully formed Mysterious Nether Chisel.

However, he knew that the power of the Mysterious Nether Chisel had not yet reached its limit, and to unleash its full power, it would need to devour the essence of many Spirit Material!

Cheng Buzheng's mind raced.

The Mysterious Nether Chisel, suspended above the Secret Chamber, emitted bursts of gray mist that enveloped the numerous Spirit Material below.

One by one, the Spirit Material seemed to have weathered away in a short period of time, as if millions of years had passed, and all their essence was completely devoured by the Mysterious Nether Chisel.

At the same time, Mysterious Nether Chisel Zhuo, rapidly expanding in all directions!

A short while later.

When the intricate patterns completely covered the Mysterious Nether Chisel, they instantly shone with an eerie red light.

At this moment, Mysterious Nether Chisel was surrounded by a faint gray mist, within which shimmered a blood-red demonic light, while the blade at its edge emitted a chilling gleam, making it appear to be an absolute Evil Artifact.

Even so, no cultivator would deny the power of this artifact!

The pile of Spirit Material on the ground was now just a tattered mess, no longer possessing the aura of spiritual light it once had!

See here.

Cheng Buzheng smiled slightly, a thought flashing through his mind.

A faint light slid down from above and Cheng Buzheng's right hand, transforming into a Small Disc pattern imprinted on his skin. Then, with a flash of light, the Small Disc pattern that had just appeared completely disappeared.

immediately.

After Cheng Buzheng up the Secret Chamber, Cheng Buzheng transformed into a ray of light and flew off the island.

Not long after.

A streak of black and white light hovered in the sky above the sea three thousand miles away from Xuanli Island.

He discovered that at this moment, the <Universe Flowing Light Escape> had been upgraded to the middle grade (ultimate), and its speed had increased by about six times, while the mana consumption had only increased by one level.

From now on, not only will they be much safer from escaping enemy cultivators' pursuit, but they will also be much more secure in their ability to hunt them down.

This upgrade was definitely worthwhile!

I just don't know how much improvement it will receive when upgraded to Superior (Ultimate) grade.

Thinking of this, Cheng Buzheng felt an urge to immediately deduce and improve!

However, considering that his current magical power is insufficient to sustain long-term flight, only those who have cultivated to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage will have enough magical power to maintain this escape technique.

At this point, pushing the logic to the highest level (the ultimate) would indeed be somewhat counterproductive!

Immediately, Cheng Buzheng dismissed the idea.

After that, he began experimenting with many of his Treasure Art once again.

Having mastered the two Treasure Art, <Spirit Concealing Transformation> and <Divine Form Transformation>, to the highest level (ultimate), he is now certain that no Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator can discern his hidden traces and true appearance.

Even among Golden Core Stage cultivators, only those True Person have cultivated Eye Technique would likely be able to see through his tracks and disguise.

Cheng Buzheng pondered this in his heart.

As for the Nine Nether Soul Lotus, a defensive soul-protecting Treasure Art, Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator uses offensive soul- Treasure Art or charm-type Treasure Art, they will definitely not be able to shake his mind.

Even if one were to be completely immune to the Charm Arts used by the Golden Core True Person of the Xuan Mysterious Yin Sect, there would still be a chance to catch one's breath.

Although the exact power of the <Soul Thunder Slash> Treasure Art cannot be determined at present, it can certainly kill Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivator without any resistance.

As for whether it can destroy the soul of Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator, that's probably unlikely, but it will likely cause them to lose their senses for a moment.

In that brief moment, we could have annihilated the opponent.

If this Treasure Art were used now to kill the Hui Gold Snake, the demonic souls of those two Second-order High-grade Hui Gold Snake could be easily destroyed, and their demonic bodies could be obtained intact.

Immediately.

Cheng Buzheng unleashed the <Spirit Firmament Green Lotus Eye>, with a faintly glowing azure Green Lotus appearing in each of his eyes as he gazed into the distance.

Countless points of light floated around, with blue points being the most numerous, accounting for 90%, while red points were the rarest, making up only about one in ten thousand.

He could clearly see where the spiritual energy was abundant.

Even on a remote, uninhabited island thousands of miles away, he could see the flowers, plants, and trees on the island clearly, as if they were right in front of him.

Cheng Buzheng stood in Cheng Buzheng, looking down at the sea below!

Schools of sea fish could be seen searching for food on the seabed, their scales clearly visible.

Occasionally.

He also saw a few scattered first-tier Demon Beast swiftly pouncing on and biting sea fish in the ocean, engaging in predation.

Looking around the week.

Cheng Buzheng saw that the Second-order High-grade (ultimate) <Spirit Firmament Green Lotus Eye> not only allowed him to see farther, but also to observe all things in greater detail.

After using the superior-grade Treasure Art, he had a general idea of how much these Treasure Art had improved him.

immediately.

Cheng Buzheng started using a mid-grade Treasure Art again!

He already understood the <Universe Flowing Light Escape> Treasure Art very well when it came, so there was no need to use it.

Then, Cheng Buzheng thought and unleashed the Treasure Art, the <Roaming Dragon Hundred Transformation Sword>.

Before him floated 365 three-foot-long Flying Sword, each a white Flying Sword with a white light swirling around its blade, its sharpness gleaming.

Cheng Buzheng out and lightly touched the void.

Three hundred and sixty-five streaks of light, like an apocalyptic catastrophe, rushed towards the sea below.

moment.

The sea surface turned blood-red, and everything along the way—fish, rocks, or Demon Beast —was reduced to dust within the area covered by this sword domain.

Even first-tier Demon Beast are no exception!

A short while later.

"Boom... Boom!"

A series of deep, rumbling sounds emanated from the seabed.

Within the area covered by the sword domain, three hundred and sixty-five giant pits were left on the seabed, their depths unfathomable!

All that was around was fine yellow sand; there was nothing else.

See here.

Cheng Buzheng nodded in satisfaction. The second-tier mid-grade (ultimate) <Roaming Dragon Hundred Transformation Sword> not only greatly increased the number of sword shadows, but also increased its power several times over.

This Treasure Art truly lives up to its Treasure Art as one that can rival Sword Cultivator.

Cheng Buzheng sighed softly.

Immediately.

His mind raced again.

A Dark Gold Glaze- like protective shield floated in front of me.

Cheng Buzheng examined it closely and found that the protective shield was not only much thicker than before, but its color was also much deeper!

Then, he bent his fingers and flicked them slightly.

A tangible magical force, radiating a hazy gray light, surged towards the protective barrier ahead.

"When!"

The dark gold shield emitted a crisp sound, but its surface remained completely still.

"The sound is much crisper than before, it seems to have improved quite a bit!"

Cheng Buzheng thought to himself.

Immediately, Cheng Buzheng flipped his right hand, and Small Disc, shimmering with gray mist and glowing with red light, hovered above his palm, carrying a deep chill.

He raised his right hand.

A streak of gray light, tinged with red, rushed toward the protective barrier that resembled a dark golden bell.

"When!"

With Cheng Buzheng unleashing his full magical power, the two instantly reached a stalemate.

At the touch point!

A golden light wave and a gray light wave formed in an instant.

The residual force from both created two whirlpools, each hundreds of feet in size, in the sea below, swallowing up the surrounding endless seawater.

Every now and then, groups of sea fish could be seen floating belly-up in the two whirlpools, before turning into streaks of bloody foam.

Three breaths later.

"Bang!"

The dark gold protective shield shattered, and the corresponding vortex below slowly subsided, though a hint of blood appeared on the sea surface.

See here.

Cheng Buzheng and summoned Mysterious Nether Chisel, which transformed into a streak of gray light and imprinted itself on the back of his right hand. Then, the gray light flashed and disappeared.

Verification complete.

Cheng Buzheng's eyes each held a faintly glowing Green Lotus. After looking around, he found nothing amiss.

Without lingering, he transformed into a streak of light and flew towards Xuanli City.

A Black and White Flowing Spirit Light, swept across the top of the Monitoring Tower on Xuanli Island.

Meanwhile, the disguised No. 3 Puppet flew towards the Earth Fire Chamber in Xuanli City once again.

Although Cheng Buzheng was the guardian of this city, he dared not underestimate any cultivator.

Perhaps some cultivators could deduce from a few clues that the Garrison Commander had been staying in the Earth Fire Chamber for many years was a puppet.

Therefore, every time Cheng Buzheng's main body went out, the No. 3 Puppet would provide cover!

No detail was overlooked.

It is evident that Cheng Buzheng a cautious person.

Back in the forbidden area, Cheng Buzheng took out a Hui Gold Snake and fed it to the howling Little Roar, and then gave it a snack after its meal.

Even ordinary cultivators wouldn't be so extravagant as to give Qi Gathering Pill to spirit beasts as snacks.

Only Cheng Buzheng, whose furnaces were Cheng Buzheng full of elixirs, would dare to have such confidence.

It was precisely because Cheng Buzheng had three puppets that he was able to amass a large amount of Spirit Stone, which he used to purchase a large quantity of spirit medicine and Spirit Material to refine pills.

Since he began cultivating, he has never lacked elixirs.

After feeding Cheng Buzheng, he sat cross-legged on the Jade Bed and began to hone his magical power, refine his Treasure Body, and temper his Divine Sense once again.

Meanwhile, he is also looking forward to the ' Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly ' six months later!

After swallowing his snacks, Little Roar jumped onto the bed and lay down in his familiar spot, beginning to refine the essence within his body.
