The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
“Your luck is truly incredible to find 3 of them!” “I’ve been searching in the Sunset Forest for 8 days already.” “But I only found 2 High-grade Beast Spirit Springs and 3 Mid-grade Death Spirit Springs.” Tan Yun said with a smile, “These 3 Beast Spirit Springs were discovered by the subordinates of Wang Futong.” Afterward, Tan Yun told Mu Mengyi about how he killed Wang Futong inside the Beast God Palace. That meant since he began his closed-door cultivation, a total of 234 days had passed, and...
“Good!”
Tan Yun said firmly.
After that,
Tan Yun and Mu Mengyi talked throughout the entire night.
The next morning,
just as dawn light began to appear on the horizon.
“Mengyi, I have something good to give you.”
A flash of light appeared from Tan Yun’s Qiankun Ring.
Suddenly, 3 Supreme Beast Spirit Springs appeared in front of Mu Mengyi.
“Supreme Beast Spirit Springs!”
Mu Mengyi was extremely delighted.
“Your luck is truly incredible to find 3 of them!”
“I’ve been searching in the Sunset Forest for 8 days already.”
“But I only found 2 High-grade Beast Spirit Springs and 3 Mid-grade Death Spirit Springs.”
Tan Yun said with a smile,
“These 3 Beast Spirit Springs were discovered by the subordinates of Wang Futong.”
Afterward, Tan Yun told Mu Mengyi about how he killed Wang Futong inside the Beast God Palace.
After that,
Tan Yun’s Qiankun Ring flashed several times.
Suddenly,
many Qiankun Rings fell onto the ground in front of Mu Mengyi, clinking loudly against one another.
Tan Yun explained,
“These rings all belong to our enemies.”
“I haven’t checked them yet. There should be quite a few Spirit Springs inside.”
“I’ll leave the counting to you.”
“Hehe, great!”
Mu Mengyi smiled happily
before collecting all the Qiankun Rings.
“If Ziyan can break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, ”
“perhaps the spirit springs she needs might be inside these rings.”
“Mm.”
Tan Yun nodded.
Then he said with a slightly apologetic tone,
“Mengyi…”
“I plan to enter closed-door cultivation for 1 year to rapidly increase my strength.”
“So… during this time I won’t be able to stay with you.”
Mu Mengyi replied with understanding,
“We have many enemies now.”
“And there will probably be even more in the future.”
“We must increase our strength as quickly as possible.”
She smiled gently.
“It’s fine. You can just spend more time with me in the future.”
After that,
Tan Yun sat cross-legged in front of a gigantic rock.
He released his spiritual sense, covering an area with a radius of 80 li.
At the same time, he divided his concentration into multiple parts and entered a state of complete tranquility.
Then he used the Primordial Qi Gathering Technique
to begin absorbing the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy frantically.
Mu Mengyi looked at Tan Yun with gentle eyes
before gracefully stepping into the space beneath the giant rock
to begin closed-door cultivation together with Xue Ziyan.
Every cultivator knew that
the higher one’s cultivation realm became,
the slower the progress would be.
Even though Tan Yun cultivated 10× faster than ordinary people,
the time required to perceive the invisible barrier of each realm
was not necessarily faster than others.
Time passed like an arrow.
In the blink of an eye,
3 months passed.
A smile appeared on Tan Yun’s lips.
Finally,
he successfully sensed the barrier of the 2nd level of the Embryonic Soul Realm.
He began absorbing the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth even more frantically,
doing everything he could to break through to Level 2!
Suddenly,
the spiritual energy inside his 100-zhang Spirit Pool
surged toward the 2nd Spirit Embryo, which was as dry as a deep well.
Those spiritual energies gathered together
like golden clouds.
Soon,
countless faint golden strands of spiritual energy condensed
into light-gold spiritual liquid droplets,
falling like rain
into the 2nd Spirit Embryo cavity
which had a diameter of 1 zhang and a depth of 0.5 zhang.
Tan Yun’s speed of converting spiritual energy
was 10× faster than ordinary people.
Even someone consuming a Supreme Embryonic Spirit Pill
could not match his speed.
10 days later
when the spiritual liquid inside the 2nd Spirit Embryo was completely full,
Tan Yun declared firmly,
“Spiritual liquid, transform into an embryo!”
Suddenly,
the spiritual liquid inside the embryo cavity
seemed to come alive.
It slowly began to rotate.
During the rotation,
it gradually condensed together,
forming a liquid humanoid figure
sitting cross-legged
and radiating a faint golden light.
Soon after,
that liquid figure slowly began to solidify.
2 days later
it completely transformed
into a Spirit Embryo
that looked exactly like Tan Yun.
It sat cross-legged inside the 2nd Spirit Embryo
motionless like a stone.
At that moment,
the 2nd Spirit Embryo cavity, which resembled a deep well,
began to rapidly collapse
before disappearing.
Suddenly,
the 2nd Spirit Embryo opened its eyes!
Its eyes were as deep as the ocean.
2 beams of chaotic power
shot out
before disappearing in an instant,
returning to a calm primordial state.
However,
it contained an extremely terrifying power…
Now,
the 2nd Primordial Spirit Embryo
sat beside the 1st one.
Both had their eyes closed,
as still and calm as mountains.
This meant
that after 102 days
Tan Yun successfully advanced to
the 2nd Level of the Embryonic Soul Realm.
However,
he did not immediately begin cultivating the Primordial Emperor Body.
Instead,
he continued absorbing the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth
and entered another round of closed-door cultivation.
Time flew by like an arrow.
In the blink of an eye,
4 months passed.
Within the darkness of his consciousness,
Tan Yun sensed the barrier of the 3rd Level of the Embryonic Soul Realm.
Suddenly,
outside the borders of the Sunset Forest,
the dense spiritual energy
gathered into a spiritual vortex 200 zhang tall
before violently surging into Tan Yun’s glabella!
10 days later
inside Tan Yun’s 3rd Spirit Embryo,
the golden spiritual liquid shone brilliantly
and became completely full.
Then the process began:
Spiritual liquid transforming into an embryo…
2 days later…
The 3rd Primordial Spirit Embryo
sat cross-legged inside Tan Yun’s Spirit Pool.
That meant
since he began his closed-door cultivation,
a total of 234 days had passed,
and Tan Yun had successfully broken through from
Level 1
to
Level 3 of the Embryonic Soul Realm!
This time,
Tan Yun did not force himself to break through to the next level.
After calculating the time,
he realized that
since the start of the trial,
322 days had already passed.
And there was only
1 year and 2.5 months
left
before the Mustard Seed Space-Time Tower opened again.
“I must quickly complete the initial stage of Level 2 of the Primordial Emperor Body.”
“Then leave this trial area…”
“and search for traces of the Divine Dragon and the Demonic Dragon inside the vast Fallen God Valley.”
“I must find out the truth…”
“whether the 3 times the gods descended to destroy the Heavenly Punishment Continent are related to me!”
As for enemies such as
Linghu Changkong
and
Murong Kun,
Tan Yun was not in a hurry to kill them yet.
He was extremely confident.
Even if both of them absorbed Spirit Springs and cultivated diligently before the Mustard Seed Space-Time Tower opened again,
their cultivation levels
would at most reach
Level 4 of the Embryonic Soul Realm.
Killing them
would be as easy as
taking candy out of a bag.
Tan Yun firmly believed that
as long as he successfully cultivated the initial stage of Level 2 of the Primordial Emperor Body,
even a cultivator at Level 4 of the Embryonic Soul Realm,
no matter how talented,
could be
killed as easily as slaughtering a dog!
After thinking for a moment,
Tan Yun opened his eyes
and looked toward Mu Mengyi,
who was cultivating after breaking through to
Level 2 of the Nascent Soul Realm.
He spoke softly.
“Mengyi, next I will begin cultivating the Primordial Emperor Body.”
“You must protect me.”
“Do not let anyone disturb me.”
“Alright.”
Mu Mengyi stepped forward
and used the Shrinking Earth Technique,
crossing a distance of 40 zhang
to appear beside Tan Yun.
She smiled confidently.
“With me here,”
“no one will dare disturb you.”
“You can cultivate with peace of mind.”
Tan Yun nodded.
As if suddenly remembering something,
he said,
“The method of cultivation in my next stage…”
“may look a bit frightening.”
“I’m telling you in advance so you won’t be shocked.”
“Mm.”
Mu Mengyi smiled indifferently.
“How frightening could it be?”
“You’re just exaggerating.”
Tan Yun did not explain further.
He immediately entered meditation.
His consciousness entered the
Primordial Heart
floating inside his Spirit Pool.
Within that Primordial World,
he seemed to be
the supreme ruler of the universe,
standing upon the void.
With just a single thought,
from the vast ocean below,
20 streams of Primordial Divine Liquid
rose into the air,
slowly revolving around Tan Yun
like
20 dragons dancing!
The power contained within
was extremely terrifying!
The 20 streams of Primordial Divine Liquid
began to spin,
then split into countless liquid strands.
After that,
they shot into Tan Yun’s glabella,
flowed through his throat,
and then split into 4 streams.
2 streams flowed into his arms,
while the other 2 streams flowed through his legs
down to his feet!
“AAAHHH!!”
A cry of pain
burst uncontrollably from Tan Yun’s throat!
His face twisted,
looking terrifying like a ghost,
while his entire body trembled violently!
“What…!”
Mu Mengyi looked at Tan Yun.
She hurriedly raised her hand to cover her mouth
so she wouldn’t scream!
In her eyes filled with pain,
blood began to gush out of Tan Yun’s arms.
Then,
shattered pieces of flesh
started falling from his wrists,
before gradually spreading upward
toward both of his arms…
