It had been over 300 years since Li Fuchen12Li FuchenMain Protagonist left. Yan Qingwu and the werewolf incarnation had both progressed.
Yan Qingwu had progressed into an elite lordess, while the werewolf incarnation had progressed into a powerful unparalleled lord.
The reason why they had improved so quickly was definitely because of the World Core.
Any lord that cultivated in the World Core would be able to progress rapidly, let alone the two of them who had received all sorts of cultivation treasures from Li Fuchen.
“It is time to upgrade the space-time dao.”
According to Li Fuchen’s knowledge, a half-god could actually possess multiple half-god energies, but the conditions were harsh.
Firstly, one must possess a powerful willpower. When possessing multiple half-god energies, it was easy to end up with an explosive death.
Secondly, one of the daos must reach perfection realm.
Fulfilling just one of the requirements was already tough enough. It was reckoned that less than 10 individuals in the universe were able to fulfill both requirements.
Maybe it was due to the great mental state, Li Fuchen had a much easier time cultivating the space-time dao. There were plenty of problems that took just a short time for him to resolve.
Apart from that, he had also obtained a space-time type low-grade universe treasure from the Land of Inception. With the support of this space-time type low-grade universe treasure, it took Li Fuchen just a few dozen years to upgrade the space-time dao to the late-state of the star domain realm.
Li Fuchen then spent another 500 years to upgrade the space-time dao to the perfection realm.
The space-time dao might be at the perfection realm, but Li Fuchen wasn’t considered a space-time dao absolute lord yet. Unless Li Fuchen could create a space-time dao cultivation technique and upgrade it to the perfection rank too, he would then obtain the space-time bloodline, turning it into the perfection space-time bloodline.
Simply put, for a lord who cultivated the martial dao to become an absolute lord, both martial art and cultivation technique had to be at a perfection state.
Lords that didn’t cultivate the martial dao would only need to push one’s bloodline to the perfection state.
The latter might seem easier, but it was fundamentally the same as the former.
Take Li Fuchen for example. After reaching perfection level for his sword art, his sword dao bloodline wasn’t at perfection state yet. Only after his cultivation technique reached perfection realm, his sword dao bloodline was truly at the perfection state.
It also meant that a martial dao lord could use two steps to become an absolute lord. First step was to reach perfection level in the martial art. Second step was to reach perfection rank in the cultivation technique.
For non-martial dao lords to become absolute lords, there weren’t such steps to follow. They could only slowly upgrade their bloodline.
“I never expected the space-time dao to reach the perfection realm so quickly. It seems like the mental state is much more important than I imagine. Using the absolute mental state to cultivate any martial dao would probably result in rapid progress.”
Li Fuchen’s perception was already heaven-defying, now that he had the absolute mental state, it was the same as to add wings to a tiger.
“The mid-state Hand of Calamity is a little weak. I have to upgrade it to the late-state next.”
The mid-state Hand of Calamity was barely able to resist the attack of a pinnacle unparalleled lord, but when encountering a half-god, the calamity power would be instantly depleted.
Once the Hand of Calamity was at late-state, it would be able to contest with half-gods. After all, this martial art was an absolute art created by the Perennial God. Using this absolute art and the half-god equipment, Perennial Gloves, the Perennial God was known to be one of the most terrifying half-gods.
The Hand of Calamity was harder to break through than Li Fuchen imagined. After 500 years, Li Fuchen was still unable to push the Hand of Calamity to the late-state.
On the contrary, Yan Qingwu broke through to become an ordinary unparalleled lordess, while the werewolf incarnation broke through to become a pinnacle unparalleled lord.
After Yan Qingwu received the broken saber, her cultivation speed was already comparable to the werewolf incarnation. It was considered amazing as the werewolf incarnation did possess a small portion of Li Fuchen’s spirit soul power.
“It seems like the Hand of Calamity is a little special. I have to use external items to upgrade it.”
Back when the Hand of Calamity upgraded from low-state to mid-state, it absorbed the calamity power within the Primal Fire Lotus. Li Fuchen reckoned if he wanted the Hand of Calamity to reach the late-state, he would either have to spend a very long time cultivating or he would need to absorb calamity power from a high-grade item.
“The Primal Fire Lotus is already a mid-grade universe treasure, I can’t possibly absorb calamity power from a high-grade universe treasure right?”
Li Fuchen was certain that the Primary Inception Bracelet didn’t have any calamity power. Of course, even if there was any, Li Fuchen wouldn’t absorb it. The Primary Inception Bracelet was still very useful to him now.
“Half-god equipment and half-god equipment shards might contain calamity power.” Li Fuchen thought of a possibility.
Calamity power was ultimately destruction power, the power to destroy all things. It was something between order and chaos, making it very hard to control. It was already an anomaly that the Perennial God could create it. It was said that the Perennial God could create the calamity power because he took reference from the Perennial Gloves. It was obvious that the Perennial Gloves contained calamity power.
Since the Perennial Gloves contained calamity power, it was certain that other half-god equipment would also contain calamity power.
After all, the Battlefield of God had plenty of half-god equipment. There were so many types and there were some types that couldn’t be found in this universe.
“Let me prepare more first, there is no need to hurry.” Li Fuchen wasn’t planning to visit the Half-God Domain so soon.
He still didn’t accumulate enough experiences. If he recklessly headed to the Half-God Domain now, it would be too risky as he had offended too many power factions.
“The two of you have already cultivated for millions of years. It is about time to travel around.” Li Fuchen said to Yan Qingwu and his werewolf incarnation.
“I too wish to travel.” After breaking through into an unparalleled lordess, Yan Qingwu felt the presence of a huge bottleneck. She had a feeling that her mental state wasn’t enough and even if she continued to cultivate in seclusion, it would be a waste of time.
Just as Li Fuchen said, she had been in seclusion for far too long. With the effects of the time-acceleration, she had already cultivated for millions of years. If it wasn’t for mental state guidance from the peculiarity of the World Core, along with the support of the universe treasures and broken half-god equipment, she wouldn’t have been able to continue for so long. If she was to forcefully cultivate, she would definitely collapse.
“I am fine with anything.”
As compared to Yan Qingwu, the werewolf incarnation had an indifferent expression. His spirit soul was a portion of Li Fuchen’s spirit soul power. Let alone millions of years, even if he was to cultivate for billions of years, he wouldn’t collapse.
…
“Did you hear? The Primary Extreme Lord is hosting a lord banquet and it seems like it is called the Primary Inception Banquet. I heard that he will be putting some universe treasures up for auction during the banquet.”
“Putting universe treasures up for auction? Are you sure?”
“It can’t be fake. I heard that the Primary Extreme Lord obtained a huge number of universe treasures in the Land of Inception and even obtained a high-grade universe treasure. It is very normal for him to sell off some of the low-grade universe treasures that he didn’t need.”
“Isn’t he afraid that a half-god might come to rob his high-grade universe treasure?”
“You still don’t know? The Primary Extreme Lord is already an absolute lord. He can go anywhere he pleases and no half-gods will be able to stop him.”
The information of the banquet took just a few dozen years to spread over dozens of galaxies. Many of the lords obtained the information and realized that Li Fuchen had indeed become an absolute lord.
The Heaven Stab Sword God was very surprised.
With a perfection level sword art, he knew very well of the difficulty to become an absolute lord.
Previously, he was only paying attention to Li Fuchen’s potential. Right now, he was rather respectful towards Li Fuchen.
Li Fuchen might not be a match for the Heaven Stab Sword God now, but once Li Fuchen became a half-god, it would be the reverse of the situation.
“With such an enemy, the other power factions will probably have a headache!” The Heaven Stab Sword God laughed.
“It is fortunate that I didn’t offend him further back then!” The Storm Rain Saber God was preparing to return to the Half-God Domain, he felt a relief when he received the news.
He had witnessed the strength of an absolute lord. Back when he was still a lord, he once saw an absolute lord making a move. It was exaggerating to say that a lord and an absolute lord were on entirely different levels. If a half-god had absolute energy, then an absolute lord had absolute proficiency.
Energy could be replenished with items, but it was impossible for proficiency.
“Absolute lord?” The Golden Radiance God’s eyes burst out with terrifying killer intent.
Any absolute lord was a threat to the god race. If they didn’t get rid of the absolute lord early, it would turn into a huge disaster in the future.
Countless years ago, the universe only had god race absolute lords. Back then the god race had a far stronger control over the universe. Their control gradually declined when other power factions started to produce absolute lords.
As of now, there were only five known absolute lords. All of them were at least pinnacle half-gods, while the strongest was an unparalleled half-god.
Among them, the god race’s God Hall had two. The Dark Council had one, the Eye of Judgment had one, and the Undying Legion had one.
If the Swordsmen Guild had one absolute lord too, the god race would definitely receive an impact.
Therefore, before Li Fuchen progressed into a half-god, it was best to eliminate him first.
…
Li Fuchen wanted to host the Primary Inception Banquet for mutual benefits.
He had too many redundant items with him and it was a waste to leave them in the spatial ring. It would be better to trade them for items useful to him or people around him.
Of course, if it was possible, he was willing to purchase items with peak-grade spirit stones. He had more than enough to purchase low-grade universe treasures. or mid-grade universe treasures
“I hope I can trade for some life-type universe treasures.”
With the nourishment from the Greenwood Gourd, Li Fuchen’s Tree of Life was now more than a few hundred million miles2miles1 Chinese mile = 500 meters in height. The Fruit of Life was now at 30% maturity.
Li Fuchen predicted that once the Fruit of Life matured, the Tree of Life would reach the level of a mid-grade universe treasure.
A mid-grade universe treasure Tree of Life must not be underestimated.
The Tree of Life was fundamentally a high-grade universe treasure. Even if it wasn’t completely grown, the vitality was already extremely pure, allowing it to heal injuries flawlessly. Li Fuchen was now an absolute lord, but his vitality was now even a thousandth of the current Tree of Life.
Once the Tree of Life grew to the level of a mid-grade universe treasure, its vitality would probably increase by 100 times or 1000 times.
It had been 100 years since the announcement and the Primary Inception Banquet was hosted. Countless lords from various galaxies and star domains rushed to the Crosswise River Star Domain. At this moment, it felt as though the Crosswise River Star Domain was the center of the universe and it was bustling.
