Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Starlight Surrounds, Sun and Moon in Shared Glory

BOOM!

After pouring all one hundred eighty thousand Experience Points into his Realm.

A golden cyclone of energy erupted around Su Bai!

Within his body, an incomparably immense energy was forcefully merging the nine gold-and-white vortexes.

Then, Su Bai’s entire body began to radiate golden light as his Blood Bone, flesh, and skin embarked on a profound transformation!

HUMMM!!

One after another, flashes of inspiration flickered through Su Bai’s mind, and his brain itself seemed to undergo a high-speed evolution!

At a certain moment, Su Bai’s Heart Spirit felt as if it were being pulled to an incredible height by a vast consciousness. His entire being was adrift in a warm current, and his True Qi, physical body, and Divine Spirit all began to grow at a ferocious rate!

Extraordinary! The Extraordinary Realm!

For any Martial Artist, breaking through to the Extraordinary Realm signified a monumental transformation!

This was especially true for Su Bai, who had spent a considerable amount of Experience Points on many Cultivation Techniques—most notably, a branch of an Eighth-grade Technique!

The Fifth-Grade Body Refining Technique, the Golden Body Technique!

He had raised it to the level of Returning to the Essence!

His foundation was incomparably solid!

It far surpassed that of an ordinary Martial Artist!

Therefore, the transformation he experienced upon breaking through to the Extraordinary Realm was naturally far greater!

The commotion he was causing had already struck terror into the hearts of many.

...

「Deep within the prison.」

Lord Chen of the Prison Suppression Bureau, Chen Tianfeng—the very same man who had taken an interest in Su Bai in the great hall—was currently seated in a deep purple wooden chair. By the bright light of a burning lamp, he was carefully studying an ancient book titled Taixu Longevity Theory.

His desk was covered with books of various sizes and colors.

Three Demon and Monster Dissection Techniques, Demon and Monster Level Division and General Power, Divine Sect’s Past...

WHOOSH!!

Suddenly, a violent gust of wind, saturated with True Qi fluctuations, howled in from outside the window!

It blew out the candle and extinguished the wall lamps!

Chen Tianfeng had just reached for another book.

The next moment, the lights went out!

His eyelids twitched!

"Strange!"

Chen Tianfeng’s brow furrowed. With a surge of True Qi, he conjured a flame at his fingertip and relit the candle and wall lamps.

He was in a special palace within the A Prison Area. An ordinary gust of wind shouldn’t have been able to reach him here.

Moreover, his Realm was profound; he could clearly sense that the gust of wind carried a powerful True Qi fluctuation!

Clearly, this was no ordinary wind!

It was most likely the commotion caused by an expert’s breakthrough!

Chen Tianfeng put down the ancient book, his mind racing. He rose, walked to the window, and looked up at the sky outside.

"Hm? What is that?!"

High in the air above the prison, a brilliant gold-and-purple vortex was continuously condensing and gathering!

Limitless Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi swept in from all directions, surging into the gold-and-purple vortex!

The bottom of the vortex was aimed directly at a certain area within the prison!

"Is someone breaking through to the Extraordinary Realm?"

"No! That’s not right! A breakthrough to the Extraordinary Realm couldn’t possibly cause such a massive commotion!"

’Could it be... that someone is ascending to the Innate Grandmaster Realm?!’

Chen Tianfeng’s eyes burned with fervor, his expression turning to one of excitement!

The commotion from this breakthrough was terrifying. It was far greater than his own breakthrough to the Extraordinary Realm!

It was more than ten times greater! 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Not only was the Great Xia Prison affected by the phenomenon, but most of the Imperial City was also shrouded by it!

An Innate Grandmaster!

Such a personage would be considered esteemed even within the entire Great Xia Dynasty!

Even Emperor Xia himself would have to take notice!

’Strange, who in our Great Xia Prison would choose to break through to the Innate Grandmaster Realm at this time?’

’Not only did they succeed, but they’re also causing such a massive stir!’

Chen Tianfeng pondered this as he flashed toward the prison’s exterior.

When he arrived outside, the magnificent scene in the sky left him utterly stunned!

An immense gold-and-purple vortex hung over the entire prison, blanketing the night sky!

Beneath the vortex, the Demon Qi and other malevolent energies suppressed within the prison began to surge, as if drawn by its pull!

"This is bad! If this continues, the Demonic Qi we’ve suppressed in the prison for so many years will be drawn out by the vortex and go on a rampage!"

"If that happens, the countless citizens of the Imperial City will face a terrible disaster!"

Chen Tianfeng’s expression was solemn, his face grim.

BOOM!!

Just then, a searing-hot golden Fist Seal erupted from the prison’s depths, targeting the overflowing Demonic Qi.

It crushed it to pieces!

A Majestic Fist Intent radiated in all directions, its pressure overwhelming!

It was utterly terrifying!

"Could it be... the Seventh Prince?!"

Seeing such an astonishing Fist Intent, Chen Tianfeng looked surprised. Then, a thought seemed to strike him.

The next moment, an incomparably dominant figure surfaced in his mind!

It was said that a hundred years ago, the seventh son of the Emperor of Great Xia, the Seventh Prince, possessed truly formidable Body Cultivation Skills, and his Fist Technique was even more terrifying!

He was known as the Immortal Golden Fist!

He had disdained the struggle for power and willingly entered the deepest part of the prison to use the terrifying Demon Qi...

...to temper his Physique, will, and Fist Technique!

When he first entered the prison depths, the Seventh Prince was at the Extraordinary First Layer.

A hundred years had passed. With the Seventh Prince’s talent and disposition, that was more than enough time to reach the Innate Grandmaster Realm!

"Wonderful! Great Xia has gained another peerless expert!"

A joyful expression appeared on Chen Tianfeng’s face, and he let out a relieved smile.

The Seventh Prince was a prodigy known for being able to slay enemies of a higher realm!

Now that he had broken through to become an Innate Grandmaster, his strength must be terrifying beyond imagination!

That much was clear from the powerful Fist Intent that had just flashed past!

Just as Chen Tianfeng was lost in thought, the sky changed again.

The massive gold-and-purple vortex in the sky began to rapidly converge!

Then, amidst the profound darkness of the night, a brilliant sun burst forth!

It was followed by a lustrous silver moon, hanging beside it!

Countless stars twinkled around the sun and moon, their light brilliant!

At this moment, starlight surrounded them as the sun and moon shone together!

"Excellent! Truly excellent! What a phenomenon! What a phenomenon!!"

"Haha! The heavens bless my Great Xia!!"

Chen Tianfeng’s expression was ecstatic. Looking at the crowd that had gathered, he immediately gave an order.

"Relay my Iron Order! No one is to disturb this person’s breakthrough!"

"Violators will be killed without mercy!"

Upon receiving the order, the crowd was completely stunned!

They never imagined that such a terrifying expert was hidden in the deepest part of the prison!

The commotion from the breakthrough alone was this terrifying!

The Immortal Golden Fist!

The Seventh Prince of Great Xia!

Truly fearsome!

...

Unaware of the intense commotion outside, Su Bai was in his personal quarters. He slowly opened his eyes.

Compared to before his breakthrough, he had undergone a massive transformation.

He could now see the tiniest of things, from an ant crawling on the ground to a Black Insect hiding in a corner.

Su Bai could clearly make out their textures and internal structures!

Furthermore, Su Bai’s Spiritual Power had also soared!

He could go several months without rest and it would be of little consequence.

He looked inward.

He immediately discovered that both the quality and quantity of his True Qi had increased by dozens of times!

His skin was as smooth as jade, yet incredibly tough and difficult to pierce.

The strength in his arms had increased by at least five hundred thousand jin!

’My overall strength is now at least ten times greater than it was at the Divine Power Ninth Layer!’

’The Extraordinary Realm truly lives up to its name!’

Su Bai marveled as he took in the changes.

Extraordinary! The Extraordinary Realm!

To transcend the mundane!

Once a Martial Artist broke through to this Realm, their body had already transcended the mortal plane!

It was, in the truest sense, the first step on the path to longevity and immortality!
