Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 1386: Chapter 745: Great Success of Dharma Body, One Punch Shocks the Enemy!

The Marquis of Wind Jie Xing knew well that “Zhao Xi” had no cultivation beyond the mid-stage of Returning to Void and could not possibly cause such a huge commotion.

Eliminating all impossibilities, the truth could only be that the terrifying man had returned.

Furthermore, the Marquis of Wind Jie Xing was also acutely aware of the collapse of the Demon Suppression Star Domain’s defenses.

From this, it is inferred that Zhao Xuanjing must have retreated back to the Spirit Realm from the front lines and gone into closed-door cultivation in the Hidden Dragon Valley, which was obvious.

BOOM!

Nature’s spiritual energy boiled like fire; spiritual energy vortexes transformed into a sky full of auspicious light and flames, as if burning through the Heavenly Curtain. The barriers of space-time seemed to be burned through, and space-time storms tore through the void, roaring wildly from the cracks, shaking the “as solid as gold and soup” space, bringing incalculable Mystic Crystal Origin Qi.

Under this suddenly sweeping space-time storm, the clouds and clear breeze set by the Marquis of Wind Jie Xing were instantly torn apart into fragments.

The violent power of space-time swept all directions, causing the void to surge with “waves,” entirely made of innumerable layers of folded space.

“Wha…”

Before the Marquis of Wind Jie Xing finished speaking, his body was hit by a “huge wave,” and he was instantly sent flying, shooting out more than a hundred feet away. Around him surged a large patch of green light, which instantly transformed into a green hurricane protecting his body, barely allowing him to stabilize himself.

He was both shocked and angry, his expression sinking, with a foreboding feeling inexplicably surfacing in his heart.

Meanwhile, the members of the Zhao Family in the Hidden Dragon Valley were equally stunned by the alteration of the celestial phenomenon, momentarily unsure of what to do.

“Heavens, who knows what has happened…” Zhao Jinmin muttered in astonishment while looking at the sky full of auspicious light and flames.

Beside him, Zhao Xuanji was also clueless, speechless.

“The Dharma Body has formed, and the celestial light appears! It is feared that Ancestor has achieved the Dharma Body, which has caused this change in the celestial phenomena.”

As soon as Zhao San Yue finished speaking, Zhao Jinmin was left looking at each other, suddenly recalling some records from the sect’s Jade Book.

“Could it be…”

Before Zhao Jinmin finished speaking, a massive pressure suddenly rose from the depths of the earth, shooting straight into the sky.

This pressure was the strongest the three of them had ever seen in their lives, incredibly shocking!

BOOM!

With an earth-shattering roar, the sky full of auspicious light and flames completely disappeared, replaced by a colossal figure tens of thousands of feet tall, whose face was identical to “Ancestor’s.”

The Marquis of Wind Jie Xing’s face changed dramatically, almost unable to believe his own eyes.

“This… how is this possible?! Not good, we’ve been discovered!”

Before he could finish speaking, the person felt an immense sense of danger rising in his heart, instantly realizing the peril and immediately wanting to escape into the Dark Sky.

However, it was already too late to escape!

Unbeknownst to when, Zhao Sheng had already appeared in front of him, blocking his way.

“Since Marquis of the Wind has come, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Why not have a drink of tea with me below first, and then leave later!”

At this moment, Zhao Sheng’s appearance and stature seemed unchanged from before, but his demeanor and aura were entirely different.

At a glance, he appeared to merge into the surrounding world, his aura ethereal and transcendent, like an Immortal manifesting in the world.

However, upon a second look, he seemed to stand there as the only protagonist in the world, his presence not only incredibly strong but also like a giant peak holding up the sky, towering and solid, unshakable.

The Marquis of Wind Jie Xing, seeing this, had his pupils contract to the extreme, unable to describe his inner shock with words.

“You… you actually achieved it!”

Usually, only cultivators at the Returning to Void Perfection with the Great Accomplishment of the Dharma Body would have such a special aura of “merging with and independent of the world.”

Today, Marquis of Wind Ji Xing unexpectedly sensed this special aura from Zhao Sheng, leaving him utterly shocked.

He even believed that this person had previously deceived everyone, and his true cultivation had long reached the Ninth Layer of Returning to Void. Now, having achieved Great Success of Dharma Body, he successfully broke through to the Great Perfection Realm.

Naturally, Zhao Sheng wouldn’t reveal the truth to Marquis of Wind Ji Xing. Since the other party was mistaken, he decided to let it be.

Hmm?

Just now, Zhao Sheng suddenly noticed something amiss and swiftly turned his head to gaze at a corner of the void, then sneered: “Friends hiding in the shadows, don’t just lurk there, come out and show yourselves!”

Boom!

As soon as he finished speaking, the void within a hundred-mile radius shook violently, erupting in a thunderous roar.

Five-colored Thunder Light tore through the void, instantly striking a corner, forcing the figure in hiding to reveal their presence.

With a brush of Yellow Light, the five-colored Thunder Light was immediately blocked by a stone wall, and an elderly man with an amiable face and corpulent figure, completely bald, appeared before the two.

“Master Huang Shi!” Marquis of Wind Ji Xing’s expression changed, exclaiming in surprise.

“I never expected that the Divine Artisan Zhao Family would produce another True Dragon! Taoist Zhao has hidden so deeply, fooling everyone and refining a Great Accomplishment Dharma Body. I’m sure he will soon open his Lifebound Cave Heaven and break through to the Unity Realm!” Master Huang Shi ignored Marquis of Wind Ji Xing and instead examined Zhao Sheng, deeply sighing.

“Open the Primordial Cave Heaven? How difficult it is! Although I have cultivated into a Great Accomplishment Dharma Body, I am still far from achieving Primordial Spirit Harmonization and truly opening the Primordial Cave Heaven, a distance of ten thousand eight thousand miles.” Zhao Sheng remained unmoved and spoke indifferently.

Master Huang Shi chuckled, a cold gleam suddenly flashing in his eyes as he spoke with a smile: “No matter what, Taoist Zhao is already far superior to us old men waiting to die. I fear, except for two Integration Realm Great Powers, no one in this domain can match Taoist Zhao!”

The reason he said this is that one of the two Integration Realm Great Powers has the surname Huang, referring to the “Huang” of the Huang Family of Five Emperor Mountain.

The intimidating intent in his words was self-evident!

“Mr. Huang, you are mistaken! Not to mention the other Returning to Void fellow cultivators, each possessing extraordinary Divine Skills. Just take Mr. Huang, with unfathomable strength, I imagine your cultivation has already reached the Absolute Peak of Returning to Void. I truly feel inferior!” Zhao Sheng subtly pointed out the opponent’s virtues, causing Marquis of Wind Ji Xing’s expression to change once again, clearly shocked by this secret.

Master Huang Shi’s smile froze, and he quickly waved his hand, denying: “Overboard, overboard! If I truly had such cultivation, I would have already entered a closed-door cultivation seeking that thread of breakthrough opportunity, how would I have time to show myself outside?”

Marquis of Wind Ji Xing heard this and felt unsettled, thinking that Master Huang Shi’s words made a lot of sense.

However, Zhao Sheng wouldn’t let himself be deceived by mere words. Having just broken through, he was extremely sensitive to “kindred” auras and had long sensed the “powerful essence” beneath Master Huang Shi’s aged exterior.

“Whether true or not, a test will reveal it! Ha, take one of my punches!”

With the instant his words fell, Zhao Sheng’s figure moved like lightning, appearing before Master Huang Shi in a flash, his fist moving like thunder, directly aiming at his chest.

Master Huang Shi’s eyes changed rapidly, too late to dodge, he could only cross his arms in front of his chest, his skin emanating a layer of golden light akin to gold casting, releasing streams of Law Golden Light.

“Master Huang, beware!” Marquis of Wind Ji Xing exclaimed in shock, instinctively conveying this through Divine Thought.

However, Zhao Sheng’s strike was extraordinarily swift, the Divine Sound had not yet entered his ears when the fist had already struck Master Huang Shi’s raised arms.

Boom!

The void erupted with a thunderous explosion!

The golden and purple Law lights collided, then exploded, causing the void within a hundred miles to twist, ripping forth dense “inky” cracks, then collapsing into a jagged irregular “dark zone.”

The Spirit Realm’s Space-time has incredibly strong recovery power, the dark sky appeared for less than one breath before quickly vanishing.

Zhao Sheng slowly retracted his fist, suspended in the void, motionless.

Master Huang Shi, however, retreated hundreds of zhang away before steadying his stance, his face full of anger and surprise. His arms were covered in cracks, countless strands of dense golden light flowing out, dropping into the void in an instant, resembling tiny golden pearls, almost indistinguishable as drops of essence blood.

Marquis of Wind Ji Xing couldn’t help but fly backward several dozen zhang before stopping, his ears still buzzing.

“I acted impulsively earlier, I hope Mr. Huang can forgive me!” Zhao Sheng lowered his right arm and smiled, explaining.

“Hmph, you’ve already struck, how could this old man truly hold it against you! Since the anger has been vented, this old man bids farewell!” Master Huang Shi’s face was livid, and after a cold grunt, his figure flickered, transforming into golden light, shooting towards the sky.
