Chapter 618: Chapter 576: Reaching the Summit, Breaking Through (Part 2)

From this, it can be seen just how wealthy the Celestial Cloud Forbidden Land truly is.

Qin An didn’t linger and commenced the Nine Revolutions Bodhi Xuanhuang Mountain Commanding Art.

Once Qin An unleashed the Nine Revolutions Bodhi Xuanhuang Mountain Commanding Art, the mist before his eyes transformed yet again, turning into new words.

[You attempted to merge Nine Revolutions Bodhi Xuanhuang Mountain Commanding Art with Celestial Cloud Heart Skill, but due to lack of talent, the fusion failed.]

Fusion failed?

No problem, just burn some blood essence.

As for where this blood essence comes from, there are so many demon spirits here, Qin An doesn’t concern himself with the consumption of blood essence at all.

With this thought, Qin An waved his sleeve.

In front, a mass of demon spirits akin to a small hill was swiftly absorbed into his body.

Qin An burned the blood essence of the demon spirits promptly.

Once again, the words before his eyes changed.

[After several attempts, you are acutely aware of the crisis looming, and outside there are even individuals preparing to encircle and kill you. In panic, you intend to burn your body’s blood essence]

[After burning a great amount of blood essence, a spark of insight emerges in your mind]

[This insight isn’t enough to merge the two into one]

"Not enough? Not a big deal."

Qin An slightly smirked, thinking silently: "Since it’s not enough, I’ll just continue burning blood essence until it’s sufficient."

With that said, Qin An waved his sleeve again, and a large number of demon spirits flew to his front, consumed and burned by him.

At this moment, Qin An devoured a vast amount of demon spirits, the mist before his eyes quickly dissipated, reconstituting into new words.

[You once again burn your body’s blood essence. After burning a massive amount of blood essence, the spark in your mind gradually enlarges. When the spark enlarges to a certain level, you finally have an epiphany, merging the two heart methods into one, creating a new cultivation technique]

[You name the new technique Invisible Formless Xuanhuang Art]

[Invisible Formless Xuanhuang Art (Perfection)]

"Boom!"

A terrifying booming sound erupted.

The next moment, a vast amount of information accompanied the dissolution of words, streaming into Qin An’s mind.

Qin An absorbed all the information in just a few breaths, mastering the Invisible Formless Xuanhuang Art completely.

At this moment, he has already broken through to the Tripod Aspiration Realm, with all Void Essence becoming extremely pure, far beyond the purity found in the Element Transformation Realm.

Moreover, the new heart method brought a more terrifying power, not only continuing the characteristics of the old heart method but also possessing the killing intent of the Celestial Cloud Heart Skill.

Such terrifying power, Qin An never dared dream of before.

Qin An took a deep breath, and with a flicker, he was by the shore.

His body’s Void Essence surged, quickly evaporating all moisture from his skin.

"A miracle! Truly a miracle!"

Before Qin An could react, he heard a voice.

Turning his head, Qin An saw Zhou Wuming approaching excitedly, grabbing his hand.

"Who would have thought, in just a few months, Mr. Qin would leap from the Great Success of the Element Transformation Realm to the Tripod Aspiration Realm, and even forging an unparalleled foundation! Such cultivation speed is simply unheard of; truly worthy of being our Savior, indeed transcending all of us!"

Even Liu Rong sighed greatly, saying: "At Mr. Qin’s age, I was probably still at the Void Shattering Realm, yet Mr. Qin has reached the Tripod Aspiration Realm; it’s simply amazing."

Regarding their praises, Qin An didn’t feel much.

He turned to look beyond the Celestial Cloud Pool.

That independent space, yet he could sense anomalies outside.

"Senior Zhou, it’s time for me to settle accounts with them."

Zhou Wuming said: "Does Mr. Qin need any help? Just stepping into the Tripod Aspiration Realm, even having achieved an unrivaled foundation, outside there are many with Great Success at the Tripod Aspiration Realm."

Qin An shook his head: "No need, my current foundation might allow me to battle those with Great Success at the Tripod Aspiration Realm. Besides, I also need to grind away my killing intent during the battle with them; meanwhile, I will use these things temporarily."

Saying this, Qin An waved at the demon spirits resembling a small hill.

Instantly, he devoured all their blood essence.

After a Tripod Aspiration Realm demon’s death, what remains is called Demon Profound, which means something profoundly mysterious.

Every piece of Demon Profound is equivalent to a hundred demon spirits.

Qin An can currently absorb amounts equivalent to ten pieces of Demon Profound, while breaking through from the Element Transformation Realm to the initial stage of the Tripod Aspiration Realm just now consumed about the same.

For Qin An, without Zhou Wuming’s help, he feared even with the twenty-first-level Scholar Profession, he couldn’t deduce the heart method.

After doing all this, Qin An looked outside.

Zhou Wuming and Liu Rong exchanged glances, remaining silent.

They knew, whatever the Savior decided, they as Defenders would support unconditionally.

Because according to prophecy, whatever the Savior does is correct and is beyond refutation.

Quickly, Qin An’s figure vanished from the Celestial Cloud Pool.

...

Outside the Celestial Cloud Pool, two forces still confronted each other, seeming to have grown accustomed to the confrontation’s environment.

Besides confrontation over the past few months, they hadn’t engaged in any other conflicts.

Both parties seemed to be waiting, ready for the protagonist of this clash to emerge.

The Hedgehog Demon picked up a wine jar nearby, tilted his head back for a big swig, then wiped the wine stains from his lips, sneering: "Yu Caiyi, you all really know how to wait. Months have passed, even if he’s soaked in the Celestial Cloud Pool, I reckon he has forged an unparalleled foundation, but since he’s not out yet, there’s only one result; he must be dead inside."

Feng Jiutian’s fire feathers atop his head swayed with the wind, shaking his head: "We must see his corpse, otherwise we cannot report back to Lord Starshine."

Yu Caiyi didn’t say anything, but for some reason, she felt a deep sense of crisis.

This feeling was intensifying.

She is a demon created from a seven-colored carp, clawing her way from the bottom to the position of Sea Overlord within Celestial Cloud Path’s territory.

And why she could progress so smoothly was due to this intuition she relies on.

She now feels strongly that something extremely disturbing is about to happen.

Yet she couldn’t voice it.

Having waited so long, the morale, while still strong, couldn’t tolerate any dissenting voice.

The Hedgehog Demon, upon hearing this, sneered again: "Then wait, until the Snake Demon Clan Leader commands us to retreat, after all, we’ve done our utmost to ease Lord Traitor’s worries."

Feng Jiutian snickered at the remarks.

He knew what game this guy was playing.

He had stood here long enough; exerting effort was irrelevant because Qin An wouldn’t appear from here.

Yet Feng Jiutian had no choice but to continue waiting.

Feng Jiutian cast a glance at Yu Caiyi.

Despite her seemingly ordinary demeanor, she persists even more than him.

Therefore, he wanted to hear Yu Caiyi’s suggestion.

Yu Caiyi, sensing Feng Jiutian’s gaze, responded calmly: "Let’s wait, let all Demon Pseudo-Gods boost their states to the highest. If Qin An indeed emerges from inside, ensure he’s killed in one strike, giving him no chance to breathe."

The unease within her has escalated to an extreme.

She feels that this time, the danger lies with them.

Thus, she spoke these words.

But to the Hedgehog Demon, such words were amusing.

The Hedgehog Demon said disdainfully: "A dignified Tripod Aspiration Realm expert showing such fear? Only facing an Element Transformation Realm enemy, you surely are living backward."

Killing intent flashed in Yu Caiyi’s eyes.

As the Sea Overlord, she’s never faced such disdain, especially from a filthy Hedgehog Demon.

She was about to retort when suddenly, a mutation occurred.

At the entrance of the Celestial Cloud Pool, a sudden distortion manifested.

Subsequently, a figure was transitioning from blurry to distinct.

Not only that, but this figure exuded a terrifying Evil Qi, making hearts shiver.
