On the black stone platform.

"Call."

Zhou Hao's nine clones all opened their eyes simultaneously.

"This stone platform is truly amazing," Zhou Hao murmured to himself. "Not only can it restore the soul, but it also greatly aids in the nurturing process after breaking through to a higher realm."

After comprehending and mastering the Earth Element Heavenly Dao and breaking through from True Immortal to Ancestor Immortal, the Blue Flower Space underwent a transformation and expansion. However, it would have originally taken at least several dozen more days to nurture and elevate the divine soul to the level of Ancestor Immortal.

However, the nine clones only meditated on the black stone platform for one day, yet they achieved the same effect as the normal several dozen days of nurturing one's soul.

However, the speed of his soul's improvement has now slowed down. Zhou Hao immediately realized that although the black stone platform was magical, it was only effective for rapid improvement after breaking through a realm. Under normal Blue Flower Space would no longer provide any auxiliary benefits.

Unless the soul is damaged or extremely fatigued, the black stone platform's miraculous effect on restoring the soul will no longer manifest.

"When I was a True Immortal, my soul was equivalent to that of a top-tier Dao Ancestor. Now it has advanced to a higher realm. My soul now... should be equivalent to the limit of a First- Ancestor Immortal, almost at the threshold of Chaos Immortal."

After reading Xing Luo's introduction to the endless chaos, Zhou Hao clearly understood the normal limits of each realm.

The so-called "Great Luo Dao Ancestor" is merely a title used by the Three Realms themselves.

The truth is that the cultivation methods of the Three Realms are too poor, and the golden cores they condense when they become Celestial Immortals are extremely weak, belonging to the lowest-ranking third-class Celestial Immortals.

Despite being a Celestial Immortal on par with gods and demons, he was only equivalent to Void Return Divine Demon.

Only after one has thoroughly comprehended and mastered a great Dao, and condensed the five elements within one's heart to reach the level of Pure Yang True Immortal, can one achieve a strength comparable to that of a Heavenly God.

One step weak, and you'll be weaker every step of the way.

Even those Dao Ancestors in the Three Realms who fully comprehended and mastered a Heavenly Dao and became Ancestor Immortal were not as good as Zhou Hao when he first became a First-Class True Immortal.

Only after reaching a higher level of Dao, comprehending the Chaos Heavenly Dao, and comprehending the power of origin to the fifth level, can one be considered a top-tier Dao Ancestor. Only then can the Ancestor Immortal be comparable to a first-class True Immortal like Zhou Hao in terms of foundation.

As for the so-called leader level, which is one level stronger than the top Dao Ancestor, it is actually just a name used by the Three Realms themselves. In reality, they are just third-class Ancestral Ancestor Immortal, but their strength is comparable to that of ordinary Ancestor God.

The reason they were able to overcome the fundamental gap and possess such strength is because of the existence of leaders such as the Sanqing, Rulai, Suiren-shi, Shennong-shi, and Fuxi-shi, whose understanding of the Dao was extremely profound.

Like Rulai, he had thoroughly comprehended the five great Heavenly Dao of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and the five great Heavenly Dao combined with each other to form a five-elemental union, causing his strength to surge.

At the same time, his understanding of the Dao of Chaos reached an incredible level, and the five fundamental powers were all at the fifth level of 'Divine Connection', condensing into the realm of 'Dao Seed'!

Other leaders such as the Sanqing, Fuxi-shi, Shennong-shi, Suiren-shi all achieved the same result: either comprehending the two Heavenly Dao of Yin and Yang, or comprehending the five Heavenly Dao of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, as well as various primordial powers, reaching the fifth level of realm.

It was precisely because of their heaven-defying comprehension of the 'Dao' among the Ancestor Immortal that they were able to possess strength comparable to ordinary Ancestral Ancestor God of the God-Demon path, despite having extremely poor foundational conditions for Ancestor Immortal Golden Cores.

"My master and the others have been weak for a long time. Without guidance from a higher level, they have found the path ahead extremely difficult, and have been stagnant for almost an entire Chaos Era. Now that I have this great opportunity, it is the perfect time to help my master and the others to further improve their realm and strength." Zhou Hao sighed.

Take his master, the Sanqing, for example. He was able to reach his current level of strength through his own exploration. If he had been born in the endless chaos and had been guided by a Chaos Immortal of the first level, he would probably have already reached the World Realm.

The same applies to other leaders such as Fuxi-shi, Shennong-shi, and Suiren-shi.

This only includes Nuwa Faction, not including the Lord of Myriad Demons of the Wujian Gate, the Master Hengmu, and the Demonic Hand Dao Ancestor.

In Zhou Hao's view, if these leaders had more comprehensive guidance, almost all of them could have achieved the World Realm.

"Perhaps it is precisely because there is no perfect guidance, and every step we take has to be done by ourselves, that so many beings have been born in the Three Realms. Even if placed in the endless chaos, they could be considered monstrous beings," Zhou Hao sighed.

call.

Zhou Hao's eight clones simultaneously stood up and left the quiet room.

"The Chaos Cavern Tribulation Stone Body is extremely profound. Even the introductory technique is far more difficult than any top-tier divine power in the Three Realms. I'll leave a clone in the meditation room to study the Chaos Cavern Tribulation Stone Body," Zhou Hao pondered.

"Send three clones to peruse the various cultivation techniques of the Starlight Eternal Realm, three clones to study the various supernatural abilities and secret arts of the Endless Territories, and two more clones to browse the biographies and classic texts left behind by those deceased powerful figures."

"This will not only broaden my horizons and increase my foundation for future enlightenment, but also allow me to find suitable inheritances to pass on to my master... Perhaps my master will break through to the World Realm and become Chaos Immortal before I even return," Zhou Hao thought with great anticipation. "Then the Wujian Gate will be dumbfounded."

The Wujian Gate, which wreaked havoc Three Realms, is nothing to him now.

It was only because of the oath he made by the Starry Sky Holy Lord that he could not leave the Void Holy City before passing the third level of trials, not even sending a clone back to the Three Realms.

Therefore, Zhou Hao was no longer in a hurry. He sent each of his eight clones to a branch of the Dao Treasury Hall to browse the classics, while the clones in the meditation room were to comprehend the <Chaos Cavern Tribulation Stone Body>.

The three clones that remained in the Red Dust Immortal Mansion, hidden among the Chaos Stars, were researching the ten layers of chaotic restrictions that constituted the Blue Flower.

As for the Asura God's avatar that remained in the Heavenly Realm, besides accompanying Xiao Zhou Yu, it was dedicated to comprehending and cultivating the Rulai's protective divine power, the <Vairochana Corpse>.

After all, although the Asura God's avatar has already become a true god, unlike the original body which had the Blue Flower, the Asura God's avatar's divine body is currently only at the level of a high-grade innate spiritual treasure.

If the Asura God's avatar cannot be upgraded to the level of a Primordial Treasure, even if the main body comprehends the introductory technique of the Chaos Cavern Tribulation Stone Body in the future, it will not be qualified to cultivate it.

Time passed day by day.

soon.

Three years have passed.

While Zhou Hao was peacefully enriching himself and improving his strength in the Void Holy City.

The Three Realms, which had been peaceful for three years, were gradually beginning to see undercurrents stirring again.

The Three Realms, the Fifth World.

Several years ago, Zhou Hao single-handedly stormed the place and fought a great battle against several top Dao Ancestors of the Wujian Gate.

This great world, one of the strongholds of the Wujian Gate, suffered a devastating earthquake during that great war, and the protective array of the military camp was almost completely destroyed.

Furthermore, Zhou Hao's killing of over six hundred True Wujian Gate and Heavenly Gods in the Earth Ruins Realm further exacerbated the already insufficient manpower of the Wujian Gate.

Therefore, after that great battle, the Fifth World was almost abandoned by the Wujian Gate Sect.

But today--

Whew! Whew! Whew!...

After years of silence, more than a dozen towering figures suddenly appeared in the sky Fifth World.

A burly man in red robes with blue hair was surrounded by a crowd of people, none other than the supreme leader of the Wujian Gate — the Lord of Myriad Demons.

The Lord of Myriad Demons silently gazed at the fragments of the Fifth World below. After a moment of silence, he instructed the person beside him, "Bu Xiu, begin."

"Yes, Demon Lord." The God King, shrouded in black robes like a mist, flew out and landed above a fragment of a continent with a diameter of about ten million miles.

Wow~~~

As the Black-Robed God King's sleeves unfurled.

Suddenly, groups of immortals and demons appeared on the plains below.

There were a full ten thousand immortals and demons, all of whom were at the Void Return stage.

Ninety-nine percent of them were Earth Immortal of the Void Return, and only about one hundred were Void Return Divine Demon.

"Greetings, God King."

Upon seeing the towering figure in black robes standing in the air, all the Void Return Immortals and Demons respectfully knelt down.

"You are all elite disciples of my Wujian Gate Sect at the Void Return Realm, having reached the late stage of the Void Return, and the Five Elements Evil Qi within your Purple Mansion has also been nurtured to the first rank of the Heavenly Realm."

The voice of the Black-Robed God King resounded throughout the Fifth World, and also echoed in the hearts of all the immortals and demons below.

"For our Wujian Gate to win the faction war and become the master of the Three Realms, we must acquire enough fortune, which requires us to occupy enough great worlds. And war demands more celestial beings, more true immortals and gods!"

"Therefore, our Wujian Gate needs you to become new Celestial Immortals comparable to True Immortals and Gods, to fight for the hegemony of our Wujian Gate!"

"Go!"

"I want you to undergo your tribulation now."

"As long as you successfully transcend the tribulation, you can draw upon the primordial energy of the Five Elements throughout the entire Fifth World!"

"Whoever can expand the Golden Core space sixty times will become the leader of a great world under the command of our Wujian Gate!" The Black-Robed God King's eyes swept over all the immortals and demons below, and his extremely seductive voice directly entered the hearts of every immortal and demon.

"Yes." All ten thousand Void Return Immortals and Demons excitedly responded, and then dispersed and flew in all directions.

soon.

Boom! Boom! Boom!...

Calamity clouds began to gather above the plains and mountains of the shattered continent.

Ten thousand Void Return Immortals and Demons simultaneously underwent tribulation, and almost half of the sky in the Fifth World was shrouded in tribulation clouds at the same time.

High in the sky.

"That's spectacular!"

"Ten thousand Void Return Immortals and Demons undergoing tribulation in one place at the same time—this is the first time since the beginning of time, isn't it?"

"Hmph, although Nuwa Faction prepared a few years earlier than us, they don't have our kind of momentum."

"Of course! A vast world that has existed for countless ages, we can just abandon it without a second thought. How can they compare to us!"

The powerful figures of the Wujian Gate, who were hiding here, all sighed in amazement at the magnificent scene before them.

"Alright," the Lord of Myriad Demons said calmly. "As per the previous arrangement, each of you will be responsible for a section. As soon as someone successfully transcends the tribulation and begins to condense their golden core, immediately gather the Five Elements Origin Energy for them to absorb."

"Yes."

"Clear."

All the great and powerful beings understood this.

Putting aside the question of whether those immortals and demons who successfully transcended the tribulation, who were only at the level of celestial immortals and gods, could successfully absorb the five elements' primordial energy of a great world.

Simply doing this would be tantamount to extracting the very foundation of the entire world, which would be obstructed and even punished by the workings of Heavenly Dao. Naturally, it would require the assistance of powerful beings like them.

They were all Great Luo Dao Ancestors who had at least comprehended and mastered one of the Heavenly Dao, so the Heavenly Dao's obstruction and punishment were of no use to them.

Under the clouds of calamity.

A young boy who looked no more than seven or eight years old, bathed in starlight, had eyes that seemed incredibly old.

He stared intently at the increasingly lower and more terrifying tribulation clouds in the sky, roaring madly in his heart.

"I will definitely overcome this tribulation!"

"Even without resources in my past life, I was able to become the celestial ancestor of my family through sheer hard work."

"I will definitely succeed in this life too!"

"Li Shui, I will never forget the grudge against Nong'er. I will personally kill Ji Ning!"

"And..." The young boy paused.

It seemed that even in his heart, he dared not easily utter that person's name.

Boom!

The first lightning bolt struck.

First update.

Today, and the next few days, will be very busy at work.

Suifeng can say is that I'll try my best to at least update once a week, and I won't stop updating.

However, the update schedule will not be very stable, and I dare not say which day will have one update or which day will have two updates.

If I really can't update, I'll send out a leave request.

Sorry, everyone.

No matter how late it is tonight, there will be another chapter.

It will likely be after midnight.
