The Movement Technique then carried the dragon’s corpse conspicuously back across Dongyi City, leaving humans and demons wondering whether Jiang Li had slain a dragon.

• Jiang Li left the platform and entered an Enlightenment State, causing all sound within a thousand kilometers to vanish and alarming the Heavenly Mystery Holy Land.
• The Holy Land learned that Jiang Li had caused the silence, while Lei Shan reacted in shock when the sound of the Great Dao appeared around Jiang Li as he comprehended the Dao to form his Golden Core.

Jiang Li formed an unprecedented Golden Core that contained the rudiment of a small world, then absorbed the overwhelming Golden Core Tribulation. Heaven and earth named it the Invincible Pill, leaving Jiang Li worried that its name would draw unwanted attention.

• Jiang Li’s cultivation techniques created three heavenly phenomena as he advanced to the Golden Core Realm.

As he resumed cultivation, his teacher Zhang Song released him to establish his own school, just as the Supreme Divine Thunder Induction Scripture announced that Zhang Song had no chance of overcoming his Inner Demon Tribulation and began righteous assistance.

• The Star Gazing Sect released the Golden Core Rankings early, placing Jiang Li’s Invincible Pill first and making him famous across the immortal and demonic sects.
• Jiang Li studied the rankings, considered the other Holy Son Candidates, and decided to keep cultivating rather than risk challenging them before mastering his new foundation.

Rather than persuade his teacher to let go, Jiang Li tracked down one of the seven in Li Province and began wiping out the demons ruling the city, ending with Lord Daemonbane facing him above the City Lord’s Mansion.

• Jiang Li returned to Heavenly Mystery Holy Land as elders gathered at the Tribulation Transcendence Platform for Violet Sword True Lord to Shatter Core to Form Nascent Soul.

Jiang Li returned to Heavenly Mystery Holy Land with the Innate Sword Embryo and the corpses of the Seven Demonic Fiends, enabling Zhang Song to resolve his heart knot and overcome the Nascent Soul Tribulation. Afterward, Zhang Song gave Jiang Li the sword embryo, and Jiang Li returned to the Human Emperor Palace to cultivate with his rewards.

• Jiang Li’s deeds spread through the Cultivation World, and he returned to the Human Emperor Palace to enter seclusion.
• Jiang Li activated the Cultivation Technique Growth Plan and used more than four hundred strands of Imperial Dynasty Dragon Qi to strengthen his body.

Jiang Li completed the second layer of the Emperor's World-Shocking Divine Art and comprehended the Fifth Realm of Sword Dao, then sought Heavenly Fiend Qi to cultivate Sword Fiend. When the system found the Holy Land’s supply insufficient, it took control and flew toward the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.

• Jiang Li finished the second layer of his body refinement method, storing the remaining Imperial Dynasty Dragon Qi and continuing to comprehend the Innate Sword Embryo.
• The Profound Heaven Dragon Slaying Sword nurtured its own Innate Sword Embryo and helped Jiang Li comprehend the Fifth Realm of Sword Dao, condensing Pseudo Sword Qi.
• Jiang Li showed his achievement to Zhang Song and the Heaven Sword Peak Master, then demonstrated it to the Heavenly Mystery Holy Master and requested Heavenly Killing Qi.
• The Heavenly Mystery Holy Master gave Jiang Li two portions of Fire Attribute Heavenly Fiend Qi and promised that Lightning Attribute Heavenly Fiend Qi would be available within two months.
• The system began fusing the Fire Attribute Heavenly Fiend Qi with Jiang Li’s Emperor Flame Fire, but determined that three more portions were needed and took control of his body.
• Jiang Li realized the system was flying toward the Ten Thousand Demons Sect and demanded to know where it was taking him.
