News of the Seven Lineages Martial Competition gradually spread within the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace.
The heads of the seven main branches are high above, serving as the ultimate decision-makers. The matters they decide are quickly implemented.
Seeking the Dao Cliff.
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
Time stands still on the cliff, only the Great Dao flows and the Principle and destruction exist.
This day.
It's done.
Han Xuanji slowly opened her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
The realm of Mystic Immortal is reached naturally.
In half a year, with the powerful effect of sudden enlightenment, he pushed the many Cultivation Method and Divine Ability he had learned to their limits, and his breakthrough came naturally without any obstacles.
His immortal body became increasingly perfect, as if it were carved from the Higher Vehicle immortal jade, yet it contained within it a terrifying power capable of tearing apart stars.
He was physically strong, with physical strength far exceeding that of ordinary people. In addition, he cultivated the Chaos Body-Tempering True Instruction, so even without relying on immortal power, he had extremely strong combat power.
After breaking through to the Mystic Immortal, his divine soul became more refined, and his Divine Sense radiated outwards. His perception of the Principle of heaven and earth became incredibly clear. With a slight thought, the Principle within a hundred feet around him were at his command, as if forming an absolute domain unique to him.
This is also the unique aspect of Mystic Immortal: their immortal power undergoes a transformation, becoming profound and unpredictable. Their various Divine Ability are no longer bound by form, and if they go to some small worlds, they can even achieve the level of "words becoming law".
In some sects, even Mystic Immortal is considered a high-level combatant, and in a major sect like Spirit Void Heavenly Palace, they are a core force.
"So this is the realm of the Mystic Immortal... It is indeed profound and extraordinary."
Han Xuanji felt the power within his body after the qualitative change, as well as the unprecedented control over the Principle of heaven and earth, and nodded secretly in his heart.
Perhaps due to his special physique, his spiritual power and immortal power underwent mysterious changes, taking on a trace of unpredictable " Chaos " aura.
With every gesture, he no longer merely drives the Principle, but uses his own "Way" to influence and even rewrite the rules of the surrounding world on a small scale, turning the surrounding environment into one that benefits him.
"If one were even stronger, it wouldn't be impossible to make one's words become law, and to turn the world upside down in an instant."
Han Xuanji pondered in his heart.
In the Immortal Dao of immortal cultivation, the gap becomes terrifyingly large as you progress. A single step can trap a genius cultivator for countless years.
Because the system concealed the activity, Han Xuanji's breakthrough did not produce any unusual phenomena, and therefore did not attract anyone's attention.
On the contrary, it is often the people around who have insights and breakthroughs on the spot that cause quite a stir.
For example, Su Ming and a swordsman dressed in black had been meditating on the Seeking the Dao Cliff for many days and broke through on the spot, attracting the attention of many people.
"It seems Master sent a message earlier."
Han Xuanji immediately had a thought and began to examine the contents of the message sent by Immortal Lord Yunmiao.
"A hundred years from now, the Seven Lineages Martial Competition will be held, and I'm required to participate. Also, I'll need to help the sect investigate any Devil Race spies."
Upon seeing this news, Han Xuanji's mind raced. It seemed the sect's higher-ups were quite audacious.
To entrust such a significant task to a mere True Disciple of the master is, undeniably, a display of great courage.
This will affect many of the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace's future plans.
However, he was somewhat reluctant to participate in the Seven Lineages Martial Competition Tournament.
This year's Seven Lineages Martial Competition is different from previous ones, as other forces will be involved, making it quite influential.
In the past, most visitors were from other factions; in essence, it was a battle of wits between the True Disciple of the seven main branches of the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace.
This time, however, due to Han Xuanji, there are some variables, and people from various forces will be invited to participate, thus creating a greater impact.
Countless exceptional talents will participate, vying for fortune and seeking fame and fortune.
"The reward is quite good..."
Han Xuanji shook his head.
This reward, perhaps due to the special nature of this Seven Lineages Martial Competition, will be significantly stronger than in the past.
Supreme-Grade Immortal Artifact, secret fortuitous opportunity, miraculous elixirs...
"But it doesn't appeal to me."
If he were to reveal his full strength, he could probably sweep through the Mystic Immortal, attracting too much attention and getting entangled in too many unnecessary karmic consequences.
Letting him hide his strength is tantamount to him going up and getting beaten up, which isn't good either.
Instead of wasting time on that, Han Xuanji would rather sign in and cultivate; he didn't believe that Mystic Immortal realm was a sure thing.
Jiang Hao, as the pride of the Jiang Household, whose protectors were at least at the level of Mystic Immortal or Golden Immortal, was still attacked and almost lost his life.
However, once one reaches the Mystic Immortal, one also gains some ability to protect oneself.
If he were to use Immortal King Artifact, he should be able to contend with Golden Immortal.
"We'll figure out a way not to participate then."
Han Xuanji made up his mind. Pointing out the Devil Race spies was just a matter of course for him, and he also hoped that the sect would prosper.
But if you need to do the work, you should find someone else.
For example, Su Ming, as a person of great fortune, should be able to shine brightly for the Pill Lineage.
Having figured this out, Han Xuanji calmly swept his gaze over the crowd on the cliff, then closed his eyes again to stabilize his newly broken-through realm.
To reach the Golden Immortal, one needs to condense one's own " Golden Immortal Dao Fruit." At this level, cultivators possess the characteristic of " Immortal," with a lifespan equal to that of heaven and earth (theoretically Undying, but not invincible).
It can create blessed lands and grottoes, possesses great Divine Ability and boundless Law Power.
Han Xuanji was also pondering his own path to becoming Golden Immortal.
Just then...
A figure in a green robe, sitting quietly not far from Han Xuanji, suddenly became unusually active.
The Spiritual Qi surrounding him was no longer peaceful, but instead surged violently like boiling water, transforming into a huge vortex that madly poured into his body.
Above its head, countless threads of Principle were drawn together, manifesting and intertwining to create numerous magnificent phenomena.
"Goodness, another breakthrough..."
"This is the second time in six months, isn't it?"
Exclamations erupted.
All eyes were focused on the figure shrouded in Chaos Spiritual Qi and countless Principle and phenomena.
Jiang Yuan, Zhao Yuan, and the others were completely dumbfounded.
"He broke through again?"
Zhao Yuan's voice was hoarse, her eyes filled with disbelief and deep jealousy.
He had to cultivate diligently for many years to break through to the next level, while his opponent had broken through twice so easily within half a year.
Ji Tianxing had a complicated expression. He had initially harbored many negative thoughts, feeling that Su Ming was unworthy of being the head disciple. However, he never expected that the other party, despite his seemingly mediocre talent, was already close to catching up with him, making him question his own existence.
The only thing that comforted him was that at least he was still alive and well, and there might still be a chance for him to catch up in the future.
Unlike that prodigy of the Jiang Household, who, despite his exceptional talent, was arrogant and conceited, and ultimately disappeared without a trace.
Just as the group was sighing, they also noticed Han Xuanji.
He's still here...
Jiang Yuan, Zhao Yuan, and the others were dumbfounded. They had arrived here half a year ago, and Han Xuanji had already been cultivating here. Now that their six-month period of comprehension had come to an end, they were preparing to leave, but he was still here.
How much cultivation time was exchanged?
"We... should go."
Jiang Yuan gave a wry smile and tugged at Zhao Yuan, who was still in a daze.
Their time had come, and the restrictions of the Seeking the Dao Cliff had begun to gently repel them.
Zhao Yuan snapped out of her daze, her expression shifting before finally settling into a sigh, and she caught up with the others who had already gone far away.
"I heard from my master that the sect will hold the Seven Lineages Martial Competition in a hundred years. At that time, the champions of the previous Seven Lineages Martial Competition will also appear. Perhaps the Ten Great True Disciples of this generation will be selected through this event."
Ji Tianxing spoke up.
"Moreover, this Seven Lineages Martial Competition is said to be unprecedentedly grand, and external forces will also be present."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan instantly became serious. These True Disciple of the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace had stood out from countless other disciples, and they would have to subdue not only their fellow disciples from other lineages, but also cultivators from outside the palace.
This should put people under pressure.
"This year's Seven Lineages Martial Competition will likely be fraught with unexpected changes."
"I've heard that sects are much stricter in their screening of disciples from different branches, and they have very high requirements for one's Dao heart."
The group started talking, but didn't go into too much detail.
Everyone harbored a burning desire to improve themselves over the next century and make a name for themselves at the Seven Lineages Martial Competition a hundred years from now.
