Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 257, True Dao Third Layer

Wang Hui and the mature man’s faces froze, their expressions turning slightly angry as they looked behind Wang Hui, only to see a young girl in a white robe walking in from outside the courtyard.

The girl was dressed in white, her appearance not strikingly beautiful, but her eyes were filled with determination.

"So it’s Ruyi cousin!"

A flash of anger appeared in Wang Daoran’s eyes, but his face showed a gentle smile, which looked rather hypocritical!

If Chu Ming were here, he would have realized that the one who had just arrived was none other than Wang Ruyi, who joined the Celestial Travel Sect with him!

"Daoran cousin!"

Wang Ruyi nodded slightly, her expression casual, which made Wang Daoran feel quite uncomfortable, but he dared not show his anger!

It was not without reason that Wang Ruyi was called the Wang Family’s greatest genius; whether it was the Patriarch or the ancestor, they all regarded her with great importance. Although the Wang Hui brothers were also Inner Sect Disciples of the Celestial Travel Sect, their status in the family was far inferior to that of Wang Ruyi.

"Wang Hui, facing problems and only seeking out your cousin, is this what you’ve learned in a year at the Celestial Travel Sect?"

Wang Ruyi let out a cold laugh, her eyes showing a hint of disdain as she looked at Wang Hui.

Wang Hui, also being a genius and having the pride of one, could not stand being mocked by Wang Ruyi like this, and immediately retorted.

"As far as I know, Chu Ming’s performance in the entrance assessment far surpassed yours, you’ve really brought glory to the Wang Family!"

Wang Ruyi’s expression remained unchanged; indifferently, she said, "My affairs are none of your concern, but I warn you, do not trouble Chu Ming, or else not even the Wang Family can protect you!"

Wang Hui did not speak, but he dismissed Wang Ruyi’s warning in his heart. The Wang Family was the most powerful family in the Empire of Manyue, second only to the royal family.

Although the family did not have any ancestors in the Realm of Transcendence, it did have three invincible experts in the Guiyuan Realm, one of whom was on the verge of the Realm of Transcendence. He truly did not believe Chu Ming could make him regret!

Ignoring Wang Hui, Wang Ruyi walked straight into a room in the small courtyard!

"Cousin, you must help me!"

Seeing Wang Ruyi leave, Wang Hui once again spoke, his tone full of pleading.

Wang Daoran did not immediately agree, he paused to think. He also believed Wang Ruyi was exaggerating; the Wang Family was vast and powerful, how could one Chu Ming shake it? Maybe in twenty years, but who knows what the world will look like then!

"Ah, I will help you this one last time!"

As one of the top twenty disciples of the Inner Sect, Wang Daoran usually would not act casually!

"Thank you, cousin!"

Wang Hui was overjoyed. He was ranked only eighty-something in the Inner Sect, far behind Wang Daoran, and although Chu Ming could defeat him with one strike, he believed Chu Ming could not stir up any trouble under Wang Daoran’s hand!

...

In the 13th cultivation room.

Chu Ming sat cross-legged in a wilderness; occasionally, sword shadows resembling meteors flew by in the sky, dazzlingly beautiful.

Three days passed in an instant, and as Chu Ming immersed himself in the Sword Dao, everything around him disappeared, and he returned to reality!

Exhaling slightly, Chu Ming opened his eyes, and two streaks of sword light shot from them like bolts of lightning darting through the void.

The effects of the cultivation room were simply too significant. In just three days, his Sword Dao Realm had made great progress, with the Slaughter Sword Intent advancing to the mid-stage of Tier Two, and the Immortal Sword Intent also showing considerable improvement!

Unfortunately, the cost of using the cultivation room was too high; otherwise, he could rapidly elevate his Sword Dao Realm to a terrifying level!

After leaving the cultivation room, Chu Ming did not return to the small courtyard directly but headed to the Pill Hall!

He still had over two thousand Contribution Points left; cultivating with Spirit Stones was too slow, exchanging them for elixirs to aid in cultivation could enormously increase his cultivation speed!

The elixir used by Martial Artists in the Transcendence Realm for cultivation is called the Spirit Gathering Pill; this elixir was useless for those in the True Dao Realm, as it contained very little Spiritual Power.

The elixir used by True Dao Martial Artists for cultivation is called the Profound Spirit Pill; the Spiritual Power in a lower grade Profound Spirit Pill is ten times that in a top grade Spirit Gathering Pill.

Although Profound Spirit Pills were extremely valuable outside, in the Celestial Travel Sect they were quite common; in the Celestial Travel Sect, as long as you have enough Contribution Points, you can buy almost anything!

Exchanging two thousand Contribution Points for twenty middle grade Profound Spirit Pills, Chu Ming left the Pill Hall.

In the room, Chu Ming sat cross-legged on the bed, swallowed a Profound Spirit Pill, and silently recited the cultivation technique mantra. Circles of Spiritual Power rotated continuously within his body, slowly merging with the Spiritual Power in the elixir.

The Spiritual Power in a middle grade Profound Spirit Pill could save him five days of hard cultivation.

In the Celestial Travel Sect, the law of stronger becomes stronger, weaker becomes weaker, governed their growth; this was also a principle the sect’s higher-ups liked to see. Cultivating an ultimate genius often has a greater deterrent than cultivating a thousand average talents!

On the third day, Chu Ming had refined thirteen middle grade Profound Spirit Pills, and the Spiritual Power in his Dantian had reached saturation a day earlier!

Buzz buzz buzz!

Another middle grade Profound Spirit Pill was refined. At this moment, his Dantian swelled, expanding by more than double, while his momentum surged, causing his white robe to billow instantly!

True Dao Third Layer!

Breaking through to the True Dao Third Layer, the Spiritual Power in Chu Ming’s Dantian grew about thirty to forty percent stronger, his strength becoming much more robust than before.

Not stopping, Chu Ming continued refining the remaining Profound Spirit Pills, yet due to his breakthrough, the remaining pills had reduced effects; each pill now only equated to two days of hard cultivation!

On the fourth day, Chu Ming had refined all the remaining Profound Spirit Pills, yet his body’s Spiritual Power merely increased slightly, not even reaching the middle stage of the True Dao Third Layer!

Exhaling, Chu Ming whispered, "It’s time to take on some tasks!"

Chu Ming murmured to himself; born from adversity, died from comfort—this principle was crucial for Martial Artists.

To truly grow, a Martial Artist must go through multiple life-and-death experiences!

Chu Ming stood up; the place to take tasks was the Task Hall of the Celestial Travel Sect.

If any place in the Celestial Travel Sect was the most bustling, it would undoubtedly be the Task Hall.

The Task Hall always had disciples returning with various news from different places, essentially serving as a hub of information!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Upon arriving at the Task Hall, the sky was suddenly filled with whistling sounds, immediately catching Chu Ming’s attention. He looked up, his eyes filled with a hint of shock!

A black-robed man was flying quickly in the sky, his demeanor cold and proud, his face chiseled like a blade, sharp and firm, with endless wind waves blowing past him!

What’s most striking was the giant blood-colored Demon Beast corpse under his feet, the corpse spanning over twenty meters, its body covered in dense scales without a gap; even though the body was dead, its oppressive force still spread to the surroundings, startling countless birds and beasts!
