Breaking Through to the Purple Mansion Realm

If he were to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm and unleash his Law Power Divine Ability, he might be able to severely injure a low-grade third-tier magic Law Treasure.

Even if a cultivator in the Early Purple Mansion realm activates a third-tier defensive Law Treasure, they can only withstand two or three attacks from a third-tier Divine Ability.

"The Realm of the Purple Mansion"

Chen Nianzhi's eyes flickered slightly. This time, he planned to forcefully break through to the Purple Mansion Realm without relying on any external objects, except for his own Life-bound Magical Treasure.

In fact, he was very confident. He Self-Foundation Establishment, and his True Essence was exceptionally sharp. He also had a third-tier immortal sword to refine his True Essence, so his foundation far exceeded that of other cultivators of the same level.

Moreover, he had been tempered by the Hongmeng Purple Qi for many years, and the True Essence contained in his meridians was three levels higher than that of other cultivators of the same level.

In addition, having consumed the Mysterious Origin Pill, his total True Essence already exceeded that of an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator of the same level by more than double.

Moreover, he had upgraded his Ren-Water Azure Lotus Platform to the third-grade lower level, and his True Essence was three times that of cultivators of the same level. If he could not succeed in breaking through to the Purple Mansion in one go, then probably no one in the world could succeed in breaking through to the Purple Mansion in one go.

Slowly suppressing her thoughts, Chen Nianzhi closed her eyes and began her attempt to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm.

He channeled his True Essence from his dantian, which then flowed upwards along the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein.

"Boom--"

In a daze, he seemed to hear a sudden loud noise, and extremely condensed True Essence impacted the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein, instantly piercing through 10% of the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein.

In an instant, he felt a glow deep within his spine. The True Essence pierced his meridians, causing intense pain, and his spinal marrow felt itchy, as if it were being torn apart.

This is the inevitable result of breaking through without the help of external objects. Without the protective Power of Creation from treasures like the Blazing Fire Crystal, a cultivator's Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein will inevitably suffer unbearable pain when it is impacted.

The reason why Lin Mocheng only managed to penetrate 10% of the Purple Mansion Purple Mansion Dao Meridian when he attempted to break through it was because he couldn't bear the unbearable pain and gave up halfway. Otherwise, he should have been able to penetrate at least 30% of the Purple Mansion Dao Meridian.

In fact, apart from a very few individuals with great perseverance who can overcome Fleshly Body Ordeal with astonishing willpower and break through the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein without the aid of external objects.

The vast majority of cultivators cannot withstand the pain and thus give up on their attempt to break through to the Purple Mansion. Those who give up halfway can at most penetrate one or two tenths of the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein.

In reality, cultivators who can reach the Foundation Establishment Grand Completion have enough True Essence to penetrate at least 30-40% of the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein. Those who Self-Foundation Establishment have wide meridians and can even penetrate 50% of the Dao Meridian.

Even an ordinary cultivator, if they have sufficient Qi and Blood and burn their Natal Essence Blood, can penetrate more than 50% of their Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein in one go.

Chen Nianzhi was very clear that his True Essence was abundant and sharp, more than enough for him to penetrate the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein in one go.

The only thing holding him back was the excruciating pain of opening up the meridians of his spine.

This pain is difficult to describe; cultivators throughout the world call it ' Fleshly Body Ordeal,' meaning that this pain surpasses all other forms of suffering and is one of the greatest trials in cultivation.

"Charge!"

Chen Nianzhi gritted her teeth, overcame the Fleshly Body Ordeal with great willpower, and continued to urge her True Essence to flow upwards.

30%

50%

70%

When the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein was 70% complete, he realized that his True Essence was already somewhat insufficient.

At this point, an ordinary cultivator would either fight back with all their might and force an attack until their True Essence is exhausted, opening up as much as they can.

Either burn your Qi and Blood for a final gamble, and even if you exhaust your True Essence, you might still succeed by using your Natal Essence Blood to break through. However, if you succeed, you will suffer a great loss of vital energy and need to recuperate for thirty years.

With the Ren-Water Azure Lotus Platform in hand, Chen Nianzhi naturally did not need to burn his Natal Essence Blood. As the azure lotus platform in his dantian rotated, a mighty torrent of True Essence surged out and flowed into his Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein.

With this new force, Chen Nianzhi was as if divinely aided, advancing with unstoppable momentum and continuing to break through.

80%

90%

95%

The final blow at the critical juncture.

Chen Nianzhi mustered her True Essence, forcefully suppressing the Fleshly Body Ordeal, and struck the last small section of the sealed Heavenly Meridian.

That vast True Essence, like a True Dragon dragon, rose up along the spine, coiling and ascending to the heavens, and finally blasted open the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein.

"Boom--"

After a loud bang, Chen Nianzhi almost collapsed to the ground.

He smiled slightly. After sixty-three years of reincarnation in this world, he had finally opened the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein and entered the Purple Mansion Realm.

From now on, among the various kingdoms of the Ji Continent, his cultivation level can be considered to have initially entered the middle to high level, making him a one-in-a-million figure even among cultivators.

Despite the fact that the Chu Kingdom has over 400,000 cultivators, it boasts over a hundred Purple Mansion cultivators. However, the lifespan of the Purple Mansion cultivators is more than four times that of ordinary cultivators, making it no exaggeration to say that they are one in ten thousand.

Suppressing her excitement, Chen Nianzhi calmed herself down and began refining her Law Power.

Having pierced through the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein, the greatest hurdle has been overcome. The next step is to refine the Law Power, allowing the Divine Sense and True Essence to merge and transform into an even more profound and unparalleled magical Law Power. However, this will only take a little time.

This process took Chen Nianzhi a month. Only after he had completed the fusion of his Law Power did he realize that the depth of his Law Power far exceeded that of ordinary people.

Even when he was in the Foundation Establishment, his True Essence was already comparable to the First-Layer Purple Mansion realm, only not as profound as his Law Power power.

Now that his True Essence has been connected to the Purple Mansion Heavenly Vein, it has doubled and has been transformed into even more profound magical Law Power.

"The depth of my Law Power is probably comparable to that of Fourth-Layer Purple Mansion realm."

"Once my Life-Bound Immortal Sword and the Ren-Water Azure Lotus Platform are upgraded to the Tier 3 Mid-grade, my combat strength will not be weak even in the Mid-Purple Mansion realm."

After sensing the Law Power, Chen Nianzhi became even more aware of her own strength.

Without relying on external aids such as the Blazing Fire Crystal to break through to the Purple Mansion, his True Essence was pure and sharp. Although this caused him great pain during the breakthrough, it also made the quality of his Law Power far surpass that of ordinary Purple Mansion.

With his profound ability to overcome Fleshly Body Ordeal, even without external aids, his chances of breaking through to the Golden Core realm stage will increase by 10-20% based solely on his abundant magical Law Power.

Moreover, this also has a significant impact on his combat effectiveness.

Once you reach the Purple Mansion, it becomes very difficult to advance beyond your current level. Back when he was in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, he could hold his own against Foundation Establishment Late Stage thanks to his Tier 2, mid-grade Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword, but now he finds it difficult to fight against Purple Mansion Late Stage cultivators.

The Blazing Fire Crystal used in the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword was top-tier in terms of material and power for Tier 2 Life-bound Magical Treasure, but it was only considered average among third-tier Life-bound Magical Treasure.

Unless Chen Nianzhi obtains Tier 4 Blazing Fire Orb to enhance the power of the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword, this Life-bound Magical Treasure will be difficult for him to contend with Purple Mansion Late Stage.

Even so, he was only at the Purple Mansion First Layer Mid-Purple Mansion realm, yet his combat power was in no way weaker than that of a mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivator. This shows that after overcoming the Fleshly Body Ordeal, his Law Power was no weaker than that of a Mid-Purple Mansion realm who had undergone a refinement of their Law Power.

"Moreover, I also possess the Great Geng Immortal Sword."

With a smile on her face, Chen Nianzhi took out a golden immortal sword.

The Great Geng Immortal Sword is the Array Instrument of the Great Geng Sword Formation. This sword is of the Tier 3 High-grade. Chen Nianzhi's Law Power can unleash 70% of the sword's power, which is enough to threaten Purple Mansion Late Stage.
