Chapter 160: Is the Four Grotto-Heaven Realm the Highest Realm?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Two days passed before Jiang Changsheng returned to the courtyard. He landed in the house without the Sword God or Bai Qi noticing.
The Great Feathered Robe had been blown to pieces and could be considered scrapped. He intended to keep it and repair it in the future.
He changed into a white Daoist robe and sat on the bed to inherit the Heavenly Elephant Dharma.
A large number of memories surged into his mind. The Heavenly Elephant
Dharma was a transformation Divine Power that could make one’s body larger. It could make one reach a height of 100,000 feet. Moreover, it would not reduce one’s agility because of size and one’s strength would increase as well.
However, the process of casting the Heavenly Elephant Dharma would consume a large amount of spiritual energy. He did not know if he had enough spiritual energy to could reach a height of 100,000 feet.
After inheriting the Divine Power, Jiang Changsheng did not cultivate immediately. Instead, he used the incense calculation function. “I want to know how powerful I am in the martial arts world.”
[Requires 50,000,000 incense points. Do you wish to continue?]
50 million incense points was comparable to the entire Martial Emperor Island!
Comfortable!
Previously, Jiang Changsheng thought that he could break through to 100 million incense points. It seemed like he was just delusional. After all, 100 times the value of 100,000 incense points and 1 million times the value of 100,000 incense points were two different concepts. However, this was already powerful enough. Before he broke through, his net worth was less than 3 million incense points. To directly jump to 50 million was definitely a
transformation.
He continued to inquire about the strength of the Grotto-heaven realm. From the Four Grotto-heaven realm to the Ten Grotto-heaven realm, he was able to calculate it until he calculated the Ten Grotto-heaven realm. From the looks of it, there was no Ten Grotto-heaven realm at all. The highest was the Nine Grotto-heaven realm. From the Three Grotto-heaven realm, the incense points would increase by a million points per grotto-heaven. Among them, the difference between eight grotto-heavens and nine grotto-heavens was the greatest. There was a direct difference of four million incense points.
Eight grotto-heavens, six million incense points!
Nine grotto-heavens, ten million incense points!
So tar, the system had yet to detect any martial artists with more than ten million incense points.
He was invincible within the system’s known range!
Jiang Changsheng was excited, but he would not be arrogant. In the future, when others asked him, he would pretend that he was still in the
Grotto-heaven realm. Only then would he be safe. He could also cheat people to mess with him and earn survival rewards.
Jiang Changsheng stood up and walked out of the room.
When Bai Qi heard the commotion, she immediately turned her head. The Sword God also jumped down from the eaves and looked at Jiang Changsheng expectantly.
“Master, did you really break through or did you deliberately fake the heavenly tribulation?” Bai Qi asked curiously.
Jiang Changsheng said helplessly, “Naturally, I really broke through. What’s the benefit of faking a heavenly tribulation?”
So that he could display his might…
Bai Qi almost blurted out her thoughts, but on second thought, she realized that Jiang Changsheng no longer needed to display his might. After all, he was indeed the number one on the land.
The Sword God hastily asked, “Have you surpassed the Two Grotto-heaven realm, or higher?”
Jiang Changsheng pondered and said, “Previously, it might have been Three Grotto-heaven realm, but now, it should be the Four Grotto-heaven realm. You must not tell anyone about this. If the enemy were to figure out my strength, they might invite help stronger than me. The world is vast, so who knows if the Four Grotto-heaven realm is the highest realm.”
Hearing this, the Sword God felt deep veneration for him.
He had already reached the Four Grotto-heaven realm, and yet he was still so cautious. This was the mentality that a martial artist should have.
Bai Qi thought in a daze. Was it really only the Four Grotto-heaven realm?
With her understanding of Jiang Changsheng, it was impossible for him to reveal his realm.
Could it be that he had surpassed the Four Grotto-heaven realm and reached the higher Five Grotto-heaven realm?
Thinking of this, its gaze towards Jiang Changsheng became even more fervent.
Jiang Changsheng looked at the Sword God and said in all seriousness, “Your talent is indeed extraordinary, and your comprehension is even bettwe. Sooner or later, you will reach the Four Grotto-heaven realm. You just have to maintain your sincerity towards the Sword Dao.”
He looked at Bai Qi and said, “Even though your talent is mediocre, diligence can make up for your lack of talent. What you have to do is to work hard and cultivate. When the opportunity comes, you can catch it.”
With that said, he walked under the Earth Spirit Tree.
Bai Qi and the Sword God’s blood surged. They looked at each other and began to practice their swordsmanship.
On the other hand, Jiang Changsheng began to cultivate the Dao Technique. After his breakthrough, he obtained the next part of the cultivation method that led to the ninth level.
Even though he did not obtain any new Divine Powers after breaking through to the eighth level, he had managed to produce a Dao Fruit. The speed of his spiritual energy accumulation was far faster than before, and the intensity of his spiritual energy had also skyrocketed as a result. Furthermore, his Dao World had expanded by a hundredfold. He was prepared to expand his Dao World after some time and plant more rare treasures in it to accelerate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. In the future, he could even rely on the spiritual energy of the Dao World to cultivate.
At the same time, the news of the Dao Ancestor transcending the tribulation spread.
The might of the lightning tribulation enveloped the entire Si Province, but the phenomenon of the thunderclouds affected several surrounding states, causing the citizens of the world to discuss it. The martial arts world was even more shocked.
The martial artists did not know what realm the Dao Ancestor was in, but they were inexplicably excited when they thought about how one had to transcend the tribulation to reach an extremely high realm.
What was this?
Fight against the heavens?
In an inn in the mountains.
The scarred man from the Limitless Sea Alliance was drinking. He was wearing a green robe and listening to the conversations of the surrounding martial artists.
There were three other martial artists at his table, all from the Limitless Sea Alliance. As they listened to the discussion of the surrounding martial artists, their expressions were strange.
“Branch Leader, this Dao Ancestor is not simple,” one of the martial artists said in a low voice.
Cheng Yan snorted and said, “He’s just deliberately mystifying things. I’ve never heard of a martial artist who needs to transcend the tribulation to break through. I reckon he’s cultivating some powerful martial arts technique. However, that commotion can’t fool people. The Dao Ancestor’s strength is extremely strong and is not something we can touch.” The other three followed suit and discussed in low voices.
“Then what should we do? Give up on investigating Great Jing?”
“Actually, we don’t have to care about the Dao Ancestor. We are looking for the
Demon Gathering Pearl.”
“Have you forgotten the secret of the dragon vein?”
Cheng Yan remained silent as he listened to his three subordinates’ discussion.
He was still thinking about the Dao Ancestor.
He could not figure it out. Such an expert must have lived for hundreds of years. Why had he not heard of him?
He had been to the Dragon Vein Continent before, but he had never heard of such an extraordinary martial artist.
Forget it.
Regardless of the Dao Ancestor, he should investigate the Demon Gathering Pearl first.
Even though Cheng Yan was in the Grotto-heaven realm, he did not dare to touch the Dao Ancestor.
An expert that was be able to kill five terrifying experts in the Grotto-heaven realm was absolutely not someone he could touch.
On this day, the weather was hot.
Bai Qi rested under the tree and looked at the two swordsmen standing in front of the Sword God.
The Sword God frowned and said, “Sword Court? I’ve never heard of it. Please go back.”
The yellow-robed swordsman became anxious and hastily said, “The Sword
Court is the holy land of the sword with the deepest foundation in the ocean. Even though you have stepped into the Grotto-heaven realm, this continent is no longer able to satisfy you. If you go to the Sword Court to train in martial arts, you will be able to step into a higher realm sooner or later.”
“That’s right. The population of the Dragon Vein Continent was massacred thousands of years ago, causing the martial arts world to still be in decline now, but the Sword Court is different. It has been growing constantly. All the swordsmen in the world yearn for it.”
Another swordsman added.
Jiang Changsheng did not disturb them and continued to cultivate.
Today, Qing’er came to visit and said that two swordsmen from a holy land of swordsmanship from overseas had come to visit. Hearing this, he agreed to their visit as he wanted to learn more about the ocean.
The Sword God shook his head and said, “I just want to follow the Dao Ancestor.”
He almost asked, “Does your Sword Court have any experts in the Four
Grotto-heaven realm?”
However, he was afraid of exposing the Dao Ancestor’s strength, so he endured it.
The two swordsmen could not help but look at the Dao Ancestor who was meditating under the tree. When they first met the Dao Ancestor, they were stunned. They did not expect him to be so young, but they did not dare to be careless. The heavenly might of the lightning tribulation that day was still vivid in their minds.
The yellow-robed swordsman braced himself and said, “Dao Ancestor, can you let the Sword God follow us to the Sword Court? In the future, his Sword Dao will reach great success and he can even return to benefit the Dragon Vein Continent. Even though you are powerful, you are not a swordsman. Letting him follow the Sword Court is a good thing for Great Jing and the continent.”
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and asked, “Since the Sword Court values him so much, why did they just send you here?”
The swordsman in yellow hastily answered, “The Sword Master is currently in seclusion. He has not left the island for hundreds of years.”
“In that case, have your Sword Master come personally. If he is sincere enough, I will consider it.”
Jiang Changsheng said calmly, and the pressure on the two swordsmen increased.
The Sword God nodded in agreement.
The two swordsmen wanted to say more, but the Sword God glared at them. In an instant, a powerful sword intent exploded and enveloped the two of them, scaring them until their legs went soft. They immediately bowed and bade farewell.
After they left, Bai Qi teased, “Those two guys don’t look good. Is the Sword
Court looking down on our Sword God?”
The Sword God said calmly, “Don’t be fooled by their cowardice. They are all in the Golden Body realm.”
Golden Body realm?
Bai Qi widened her eyes in fright.
Soon after, she laid down again and lamented, “Truly, a Golden Body realm expert is inferior to a dog. Even Universe realm experts are everywhere.”
She, a True God, was about to die of shame.
The Sword God was amused. He smiled and said, “Looking at the world, Golden Body realm experts are naturally rare. A Universe realm expert is already someone who can dominate a continent. However, without a powerful background and a low martial arts realm, how can one meet the Dao Ancestor? The Dao Ancestor is already standing at the peak of the continent, so his environment must be at the peak of the martial arts circle.”
Bai Qi rolled her eyes. “Do you think I don’t know?”
Jiang Changsheng ignored them and began to use the incense offerings to sense his believers.
He would not have known if he did not sense it, but he was shocked when he did.
It was really everywhere on the continent!
Great Jing had the most, but it also existed everywhere on the continent, even overseas.
One of them was extremely far away from him.
Jiang Changsheng was interested in that person. How did that person know about him?
He carefully sensed the believer furthest away.
After a while, his expression became strange.
It was Lin Haotian from the Ancient God Continent!
He began to feel Lin Haotian’s thoughts.
When Lin Haotian worshipped him, his greatest wish was to marry his cousin.
His second wish was to become the number one genius in the sanctum.
His third wish was to defeat Mu Lingluo and wash away his previous shame.
In a palace that was not too big.
An oil lamp stood at four corners, illuminating Lin Haotian’s shadow as he trained.
Lin Haotian opened his eyes and sighed. “What’s going on? I feel like my body is shackled and I can’t break through.’
He stood up and walked to a long table at the side. On it stood a crudely crafted wooden man. In front of the wooden man was a small incense cauldron with seven to eight burnt incense sticks stuck in it.
He stood in front of the table and muttered to himself, “Senior, what should I do? You’ve saved me twice, and even the elders of the Saint Mansion don’t know how you did it. You must be an immortal god. My mother said that there are immortals in this world. What martial artists can’t do, immortals can do. If you’re still paying attention to me, please tell me what I should do…”
As he spoke, he picked up three sticks of incense and began to burn them..
