Asura Mad Emperor

Chapter 245 Continuous Breakthrough

The imparting of the Dao continued.

The crowd had gradually started to wake up, leaving only Bai Ruoxi, her two Supreme Saint protectors, and the old man with the goat beard still unconscious.

Just as Qinchuan was in the midst of imparting the Dao, his face suddenly showed shock, and he interrupted the process.

Although he had stopped, he did not stand up, his eyes slightly closed.

"What's going on?"

Seeing that Qinchuan remained motionless for a long time, many grew puzzled.

"He... he seems to have entered a meditative state."

"Could it be that one could also achieve enlightenment while imparting the Dao?"

At this moment, Qinchuan was indeed in a meditative state, but he was not enlightening; rather, he was somewhat astonished.

He discovered.

This Dao had undergone some slight changes.

At first, when he spoke of the great principles of the Dao, he didn't notice anything unusual. Later, when he saw that Bai Ruoxi and the three Supreme Saints had not attained enlightenment, he began to integrate a bit of the Heavenly Dao during the imparting.

The great Dao governed the cultivators of the Lower Realm, while the Heavenly Dao ruled over both the worlds of the Lower Realm and the Divine Realm.

It was precisely because of the distinct Daos of the two realms that communication between them was difficult; to go from the Lower Realm to the Divine Realm, one must perceive the power of the Heavenly Dao.

As for those from the Divine Realm wishing to descend, the power of the Heavenly Dao they have felt is too profound, leading to rejection by the great Dao, and the journey becomes even more arduous.

The Heavenly Dao is fifty, one escapes, leaving behind forty-nine.

The escapee is called Heavenly Secret. It is this escaped Heavenly Secret that transformed into the Immortal Path, giving the chance to become an Immortal.

Through his recent preaching, Qinchuan suddenly realized that the gap where the one had escaped from the Heavenly Dao was showing faint signs of regeneration.

Yes, it was not about retrieving the escaped one, but regeneration; although the traces of regeneration were minimal, Qinchuan still noticed them.

He was very clear that ten thousand years ago, the Heavenly Dao still lacked one - the regeneration has taken place within these ten thousand years.

"What exactly happened in these ten thousand years? The drunkard from Prison Mountain, Wu Yong, all disappeared without a trace, and now even that one part of the escaped Heavenly Dao has begun to regenerate."

"If it really comes to the Heavenly Dao being completed with fifty, will the Immortal Path still exist? How could those seeking cultivation immortality break through the suppression of a complete Heavenly Dao to achieve their Immortal fate? By then, even I might find becoming an Immortal somewhat difficult."

"Unable to achieve Immortality, unable to break through the Immortal Burial Site, then Ling'er..."

"Unable to find Ling'er, what is the meaning of my pursuit of Asura's eternal Dao?"

"No, I must succeed. The Immortal Burial Site—I will enter it sooner or later!"

"Even the Heavens will not be able to stop me!"

With this thought, Qinchuan's Divine Sense surged with excitement, and a vast Asura power rolled outwards in all directions.

At that moment, his unstoppable determination climbed to a new height.

With the change in his mindset, his cultivation level also began to skyrocket.

This Asura power was so rich that Bai Ruoxi and the others, who were in the midst of enlightenment, ended their meditative state one after another, looking towards Qinchuan with astonishment and uncertainty.

"What's happened to him?"

Ye Xuanji and Zhou Xi had already witnessed this aura on Qinchuan's body.

Knowing that Qinchuan was about to make a breakthrough, the two of them moved discreetly to his side, one to the left and one to the right, defending him.

Feeling the aura on Qinchuan's body climbing higher and higher, the crowd finally understood.

"He's about to make a breakthrough."

"The Sixth Layer of Meridian Opening Realm."

Seeing Qinchuan easily break through to the Sixth Layer Realm of Meridian Opening, many were astonished.

A Saint Heir in the crowd named Qian Chong couldn't help but sigh, "This young man is really something. To break through the realm so effortlessly, I fear it won't be long before..."

Mid-sentence, he abruptly stopped as if he had seen a ghost and stared dumbfounded at Qinchuan.

"He's broken through two layers! He's at the Seventh Layer of the Meridian Opening Realm!"

Standing beside him, the Saint Heir Wan Ren inhaled sharply and exclaimed, "No, his aura is still rising. He's about to reach the Eighth Layer of the Meridian Opening Realm."

"Now he's at the Meridian Opening Realm, Nine Layers!"

The surrounding crowd were all terrified. Breaking through four layers of realm so quickly was astonishing, subverting everyone's understanding. When had making a cultivation breakthrough become so easy?

Qinchuan couldn't help but frown as well. Breaking through too fast was not a good sign in his opinion.

Compared to others, he paid more attention to his own foundation.

"It can't rise anymore..."

Qinchuan murmured. Not long ago, while at the Congyun Sect, his Cultivation Level had just broken through several realms, reaching the Fifth Layer of the Meridian Opening Realm. Now, in a mere three months or so, he was achieving such a breakthrough again. If it affected his foundation, the loss outweighed the gain.

Therefore, at this moment, he was actively trying to suppress the rising trend of his Cultivation Level.

By the time his Cultivation Level had risen to the Ninth Layer of the Meridian Opening Realm, with a thought, he channeled a stream of True Qi to seal his Qi sea, forcefully suppressing his Cultivation Level, causing the aura of his cultivation to gradually stabilize.

Seeing Qinchuan's aura calm down, everyone let out a long sigh of relief.

The Saint Heir Qian Chong sighed and said, "He's not rising anymore."

Wan Ren exclaimed, "Actually? You actually say 'actually'? Aren't you quite unsatisfied?"

Qinchuan felt the internal energy within his body gradually stabilize.

At that same moment, his True Qi once again surged sharply.

The crowd, seeing that Qinchuan's aura had stabilized, were taken aback when it suddenly surged again.

"Huh! He's still making a breakthrough?"

Some had already realized it and called out in shock, "He's suppressing his own realm and doesn't want to break through. He only temporarily suppressed the rising aura, but he has failed. His realm is unstoppable now, advancing on its own!"

The Qi sea is like a container; the goal of cultivation is to fill it. Some fill it with coarse stones and move to another container, and though it's full, there is still room for fine sand and liquid. Others begin by filling the entire container with water.

Once the container is filled with water, naturally there is no room for anything else.

"Hiss, this young man is truly a monster. If he had wanted, he probably would have already reached the Spirit Martial Realm."

At this point, the gazes of the crowd surrounding him had changed.

Admiration, envy.

Many young women also had a look of fervor in their eyes.

Bai Ruoxi's eyes showed some change when she looked at Qinchuan. Among the geniuses she had seen, including herself, none could compare to Qinchuan's monstrous ability. She couldn't help but think, "No wonder he has the capital to be so arrogant."

The Saint Heirs from the Red Blood Sword Sect, Jiuli Ghost Sect, Heavenly Sword Sect, and others who had minor frictions with him all frowned, contemplating how to deal with their karma with Qinchuan.

At this moment, Qinchuan just shook his head. Since he couldn't suppress his Cultivation Level, there was no need to deliberately do so anymore.

He gave up suppressing it, allowing his Cultivation Level to grow. This breakthrough was a natural outcome of a sudden insight; he figured it probably wouldn't shake his foundation. However, he would need to properly consolidate his gains afterward.

In the end, Qinchuan's Cultivation Level stabilized at the Peak of the Nine Layers in the Meridian Opening Realm, just one step away from the Spirit Martial Realm.

...

Qinchuan's name was now resounding throughout Tianqing City.

On the path of the Dao, he dominated over the Immortal Bai, and in cultivation, he broke through several realms in just one day.

Countless Saint Heirs from various sects wanted to meet Qinchuan in person, wishing to hear more about his understanding of the Dao.

Qinchuan was not concerned about the noisy rumors on the outside.

After the sermon conference ended, he was invited by Li Zhi to go to Seven Kills Linglong Pavilion, and Bai Ruoxi was also invited.

Seven Kills Linglong Pavilion, inside a private room on the fourth floor.

Qinchuan, Bai Ruoxi, and Li Zhi sat at the same table.

Li Zhi looked down at the bustling crowd below the pavilion and introduced, "This Seven Kills Linglong Pavilion is the most luxurious restaurant in Tianqing City. The dishes they prepare are truly delicious."

Li Zhi paused, glanced around, and then lowered his voice to complain, "It's just that the name 'Seven Kills Linglong Pavilion' is too overbearing..."

Qinchuan looked around at the layout, which remained the same as before, and said indifferently, "Because the founder of this pavilion is named Linglong."
