Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 1496 - 355: The Cosmic Ding’s Revival

The Pool of All Laws opened, and including Gu Chen, a total of eighteen beings entered within.

The rest of the people, all without exception, had no chance at this once-in-an-era opportunity.

Those people inevitably became dejected, but they could do nothing about it; after a long gaze, they left the place one after another.

The Creation realm would not end immediately, at least, not until all the opportunities within the Pool of All Laws had been exhausted.

The reason the Pool of All Laws was so extraordinary was not only that it was connected to all the laws of heaven and earth, but also because it was the foundation of the Creation realm.

As the eighteen beings within the Pool of All Laws continuously absorbed the essence, the Creation realm would also gradually decline until it vanished.

The Ascension Realm titans who had no chance at the Pool of All Laws, as well as a few who were half-step paramount, went in search of the possible original sacred artifacts and divine herbs within this place.

If they were able to obtain them, this trip would not be in vain, and the gains could also be considered quite substantial.

Time gradually passed by, and soon, another half a year went by.

Within the Pool of All Laws, Gu Chen’s tenth nirvana continued, and the terrifying storm that connected heaven and earth had never stopped. He had always been absorbing the myriad laws of this place to aid in his breakthrough.

But as time passed and the half-year mark arrived, the laws within the Pool of All Laws inevitably thinned, and Gu Chen’s tenth nirvana was about to conclude.

"Is it still not possible in the end?" In the brilliant interweaving of laws, Gu Chen maintained his extraordinary demeanor, handsome and god-like, as he sighed softly.

After reaching the ultimate fullness of the Ascension Realm, Gu Chen attempted to break through and, in one fell swoop, ascend to the Primordial Realm.

Sadly, he ultimately failed.

"To other cultivators, breaking through to the Primordial Realm only requires perfection of a single law. But to me, the difficulty is more than tenfold," Gu Chen sighed lightly, calling up his status panel.

Half a year’s time, with the absorption of myriad laws from the Pool of All Laws and the tenth nirvana, his personal strength naturally also welcomed a massive surge.

All three of his techniques broke through another layer, and in terms of divine powers, six had even reached the third-grade level!

This was undoubtedly an extremely astonishing achievement, enough to shake the ages!

Gu Chen had also thought that he could smoothly break through, in one full effort directly ascending to the Primordial Realm, but unexpectedly, he still failed.

With his current understanding of laws, even some initial stage paramount beings of the Primordial Realm might not be able to match him.

Of course, perfecting the laws for the Ascension Realm is very difficult, but once one successfully breaks through to the Primordial Realm and undergoes the baptism of heaven and earth, in a short period, one can elevate all the divine powers they possess to the third-grade level.

"Nowadays, if I were to fight with a mighty being in the Primordial Realm, I cannot claim victory, but I can retreat unscathed."

The barrier between the Ascension Realm and the Primordial Realm was extremely high, and even Gu Chen found it difficult to break through. After all, transcending the extraordinary to enter the sacred, once a cultivator steps into the Primordial Realm, they join the ranks of the "sacred," transcending the ordinary, with life spans of at least a hundred thousand years, nearly immortal in the world!

Since they could be called mighty beings, they naturally have their unique aspects, and this divine chasm was not so easily crossed by Gu Chen; the difference between them could be described as that of gods and mortals.

This was also the reason for his intense anticipation to break through to the Primordial Realm.

"The tenth nirvana, after breaking the extreme limit, the Heaven-Derived Battle Body is perfected, the spirit of the primordial spirit is perfected." Gu Chen introspected his origin, with the nine war scars neatly arrayed, pushing his physical body to an extreme peak.

Above the primordial spirit in his sea of consciousness, nine stars twinkled with peculiar luster, dazzling and splendid.

In terms of cultivation, it increased directly by forty thousand years, reaching an immense two hundred thousand years.

In spirit, energy and soul, Gu Chen had reached an unprecedented level, just half a step away from a breakthrough.

"Could it be that I need to elevate my Great Power to the second grade for it to work?" Gu Chen murmured and frowned.

Second-grade Great Power, that was as different from the third grade as heaven is from earth. Even paramount beings of the Primordial Realm needed to spend a great deal of time to comprehend and advance. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Although this was only Gu Chen’s guess, it seemed to be indeed the case, the prerequisite for his breakthrough to the Primordial Realm.

Just as Gu Chen felt somewhat helpless, suddenly, he sensed a strange movement from the world seed within his body.

"Eh?" Gu Chen was surprised, as he focused inward and found an ancient continent shaking.

This continent was transformed by the Zhou Cauldron, which had been in a constant state since Gu Chen arrived in the upper realm, steady as ever.

"Could it be, the Zhou Cauldron is finally going to awaken?!" At this thought, Gu Chen was immediately overjoyed.

Boom! Rumble!

A loud rumbling noise came, with mysterious fluctuations pervading. In that moment, Gu Chen felt his thoughts nearly come to a halt; everything around him seemed to freeze.

Even the myriad laws of this place were no exception!

The numerous waterfalls of laws pouring down from the sky, the subtle expressions of Ao Chen and others in their cultivation, at this moment, were all frozen.

The Dao of Time, even among all the laws of heaven and earth, could be regarded as an existence of the highest order, transcending to the utmost limit!

And if time and space were combined, it would be even more the cornerstone of all the myriad realms, unimaginably powerful.

This is also why, the Nine Cauldrons could draw the longing of beings at the pinnacle of questioning the Dao.

Emperor Yu, in refining them, incorporated the strongest several Great Ways of the upper realm, as well as half of the Human Clan’s fortune.

Now, after years of waiting, Gu Chen arrived in the upper realm for a full thirteen years, and the Zhou Cauldron was finally awakening!

With a hum, all anomalies disappeared, and Gu Chen felt his previously frozen thoughts returning to normal, as did the environment around him.

At the same time, within the world of Heaven Seed, that ancient land had vanished, transforming into a three-legged, two-eared bronze cauldron that landed in front of Gu Chen.

It was exactly Zhou Cauldron, somewhat similar to Yu Cauldron, but entirely different in some of the details.

Yu Cauldron was engraved with mountains, rivers, the sun, and the moon, whereas Zhou Cauldron was inscribed with traces of time, marking the generations’ progression of the Human Clan!

From the era of consuming raw blood and meat, the cauldron bore the changes of light and shadow, until the era when the Human Clan rose and dominated over the Ten Thousand Tribes!

The power named ’Era’ circulated endlessly upon this bronze cauldron, such fluctuations even made Gu Chen’s heart tremble.

"The Great Way of Time, truly terrifying. With the turn of years, time flies; it can change dynasties, rushing towards the past and future," Gu Chen exclaimed in awe.

Standing upon the river of time, to a certain extent, one is inherently at an invincible position. Not to mention the supreme beings in the state of seeking the Dao, even higher-level figures must be on high alert.

Of course, to reach such a step, corresponding cultivation level and realm were also necessary.

Regardless, the awakening of Zhou Cauldron was an incredibly joyous event for Gu Chen.

Another month passed, and all the remnants of laws in the Law Pool had vanished, with seventy percent entering Gu Chen’s body.

The remaining thirty percent was divided among people like Ao Chen.

They awoke in a trance, with some haziness still in their consciousness. This time, their gains were immense; upon returning to the upper realm, it wouldn’t be long before they could attest to the Primordial Realm and become supreme beings!

Even so, they did not dare to underestimate Gu Chen; they still greeted him with cupped fists, very politely.

Gu Chen nodded, returning the gesture without arrogance.

Unless something unexpected happened, the depletion of the Law Pool signified the end of the venture into the Creation Cave Heaven.

Not long after, an unknown force emerged in this piece of heaven and earth, teleporting all present back to the upper realm.

This journey, though some were joyful and others sorrowful, was a jubilant experience for Gu Chen and the eighteen individuals like Ao Chen; they had profited greatly.

With a swoosh, the scenery shifted, and Gu Chen, along with the other cultivators who had entered into the Creation Cave Heaven of the Ascension Realm, after over a year, had returned to the upper realm.

"We’re back." Ao Chen and the others showed joy on their faces and prepared to go into seclusion, then quietly await their breakthroughs.

Gu Chen was doing the same, planning to return to Qingyun Academy and plotting his attestation to the Primordial Realm.

But at this moment, a thunderous boom suddenly echoed through the air, startling these cultivators of the Ascension Realm.

Subsequently, they saw a giant face appear, with a gaze cold as ice, even containing an undisguised trace of killing intent.

"An unrivaled personage at the level of seeking the Dao!"

"Such a terrifying aura, who has offended such a figure? Is he about to act?!"

The moment this colossal visage appeared, all cultivators of the Ascension Realm trembled, including the seventeen others like Ao Chen who were about to breakthrough to the Primordial Realm.

Even Gu Chen felt a chill all over his body, realizing that this was probably coming for him.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

In an instant, one after another, supreme beings soared into the skies, arriving at this place, among them was Qingyun Academy’s Headmaster Situ Yin.

He went directly to Gu Chen’s side, protecting him behind himself.

However, the giant face that eclipsed the sky did not care, its gaze solid and piercing through Headmaster Situ Yin, staring at Gu Chen, and speaking with a voice full of authority, "Junior, are you aware of your crime?!"

"The ancient ancestor of the Golden Roc Clan!" In that moment, through the voice, Gu Chen discerned who it was, his expression immediately turned severe.

"Indeed, it’s aimed at him." After the ancient ancestor of the Golden Roc Clan spoke, everyone else also turned their gazes toward Gu Chen.

"What crime have I committed?" Gu Chen took a deep breath, striving to remain calm, and looked at the ancient ancestor of the Golden Roc Clan.

"Presumptuous!"

At this point, several supreme beings from the Golden Roc Clan appeared with stern faces, reprimanding Gu Chen: "If the ancient ancestor says you are guilty, then you are guilty. Do you not kneel and kowtow immediately, begging for a chance to live?"

Headmaster Situ Yin of Qingyun Academy furrowed his brows, looking up at the giant face that obscured the sky, and said, "May I ask, what crime has Gu Chen committed?"

"Situ Yin, who do you think you are? You have no place to speak here!" Several supreme beings from the Golden Roc Clan scolded again.

"Hmph!"

At the same time, that giant face in the high sky let out a cold snort, and Qingyun Academy’s Headmaster Situ Yin immediately turned pale, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

The gap between the Primordial Realm and the realm of seeking the Dao seemed to be only one great realm, but the difference was too vast and incomparable.

The ancient ancestor of the Golden Roc Clan had not even appeared in person, just some condensed power was almost enough to seriously injure Qingyun Academy’s Headmaster Situ Yin.

And this was only because Headmaster Situ Yin had reached the complete fulfillment of the Primordial Realm.

"Situ Yin, you are not yet worthy to speak with me. Even if you break through to the realm of seeking the Dao, it will be the same; let Supreme Beginning come out!" The colossal face spoke with a voice as commanding as heavenly might.

Swoosh!

At that moment, from the direction of the East Profound Region, a light of the Dao spread out, traveling through space, and transformed into a vague figure.

"Supreme Beginning, you’ve finally appeared!" The next moment, four more powers converged, belonging to the leader of the Fire Sect, the clan head of the Three-Eyed God Clan, the lord of the Nine Heavens Palace, and the master of the Ten Thousand Stars Palace.

Such a scene was strikingly similar to the end of the previous battle for supremacy among the Ten Thousand Tribes.

For a moment, Headmaster Situ Yin of Qingyun Academy, with blood on the corner of his mouth, clenching his fists, could it be that today was going to repeat the scene from before?!

Together with Gu Chen himself, everyone’s expressions were extremely grave, their eyes fiercely intense!
