The once-calm river of rules was now engulfed in a raging storm.
Suddenly.
A towering wave surged up.
Qin Shujian threw a punch with all his might, shattering the wave.
Before he could catch his breath, a second wave rose and slammed him down.
Inside the Qianyuan World.
Qin Shujian, who had been sitting motionless in the courtyard, opened his mouth and spat out blood.
The blood splashed onto the stone table.
Then it slowly vanished.
At that moment.
Qin Shujian opened his tightly shut eyes, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and shook his head with a bitter smile. "Comprehending four rules really is a difficult path. Several months have passed, and I still haven't made the slightest breakthrough.
"At this rate, my hopes of becoming an immortal are slim!"
Without life source at his disposal.
Qin Shujian felt that proving his Dao and becoming an immortal while pursuing four rules at once would be virtually impossible.
Unless.
He could bring himself to abandon the other three rules.
Otherwise, he could forget about becoming an immortal in this lifetime.
"Luckily, I still have life source!"
Qin Shujian silently counted his blessings.
Then.
He looked at his attributes panel. His life source had already passed the 4.5 trillion mark.
The Origin Return Ancestral Canon.
Now had a plus sign beside it, indicating that it could be upgraded.
At the sight.
Qin Shujian rubbed his hands together, barely concealing the excitement on his face.
Finally, it was time to break through!
He felt that this had been his longest wait yet.
More than half a year.
Without a single breakthrough in his cultivation realm.
Once I break through this time, I'll officially enter the ninth heavenly being realm. That'll put me pretty close to becoming a true immortal!
