Chapter 47: Breakthrough, Divine Dao!
[Although you can't use your cultivation, the talent of the Eye of Insight is still available, and with one glance, you discern his cultivation level and identity.]
[You never expected this person to be Old Li, who is at the Seventh Layer of Tribulation Crossing.]
[In previous simulations, you knew that Old Li generally wouldn't leave Spine Mountain.]
[He needs to protect the safety of the cultivators and their families on Spine Mountain.]
[You are filled with questions, unable to understand the current situation.]
[Old Li approaches you, looks at you with relief, and tells you to focus on your breakthrough. He and the other cultivators will ensure your safety, even if it means risking their lives.]
[After saying this, Old Li performs a few hand seals, and a transparent light shield appears around you.]
[Having done all this, Old Li vanishes from the spot and resumes his battle with Shen Wuyou, the Sect Master of the Immortal Arrival Sect.]
[After Old Li leaves, several cultivators arrive by your side, vigilantly guarding the surroundings.]
[Watching all this, your mind is filled with thoughts. Why does it seem like Old Li and the others are here specifically to protect you?][You feel utterly confused.]
[But since Old Li has given his assurance, you feel that your safety shouldn't be a major issue.]
[From previous simulations, you can tell that Old Li genuinely cares about the ordinary cultivators of the Southern Regions.]
[It is his presence that has ensured the survival of ordinary cultivators in the Southern Regions.]
[If he weren't so self-sacrificing, with his cultivation level, the Immortal Arrival Sect wouldn't be able to do anything to him. He could do whatever he wanted, except leave the Southern Regions.]
[From all this, you can see Old Li's character, and you believe his promise.]
[So, you calm your mind and focus on the changes in your Qi Sea.]
[In fact, when the phenomenon appeared in the sky, it wasn't just the Immortal Slaves of the Immortal Arrival Sect who took action.]
[Old Li also immediately organized the cultivators of Spine Mountain to come.]
[As someone who has lived for thousands of years at the Tribulation Crossing stage, Old Li knows a lot.]
[When he saw the phenomenon, he immediately thought that someone had achieved a Ten-Grade Golden Core.]
[Because the scene of dragon and phoenix cries you experienced was only recorded once a million years ago, when Mo Jingtian appeared.]
[Your phenomenon gave him hope of leaving the Southern Regions.]
[So he mobilized all the cultivators of Spine Mountain, determined to protect you.]
[The battle outside continues, and your breakthrough is progressing slowly.]
[The speed of this breakthrough is much slower than you expected.]
[You know it might be because of the Primordial Energy mixed in with your Martial Dao.]
[In the blink of an eye, half a day passes, and a surge of momentum bursts from your body as you successfully break through to the Core Formation stage.]
[When you open your eyes, you find Old Li waiting outside the transparent light shield.]
[It's clear that with Old Li around, those Immortal Slaves are no match and have retreated.]
[Seeing your breakthrough, Old Li quickly tells you to follow him, as it's still not safe.]
[Though puzzled, you don't argue and choose to trust him.]
[Meanwhile, in a town thousands of miles away, a sea of blood has formed. Shen Wuyou and the other Immortal Slaves have slaughtered everyone in the town.]
[Shen Wuyou collects the blood from the entire town, sets up a newly built altar, and begins chanting incomprehensible incantations.]
[Soon, a cold voice emanates from the altar: "You use the blood sacrifice method to summon me. What do you want?"]
[Shen Wuyou reports the matter of you possibly having a Ten-Grade Golden Core to the voice in the altar.]
[After hearing Shen Wuyou's report, the cold voice responds, "Hmph, this tiny place really produces Chosen frequently. If it weren't for the rules, I would have smashed this place with a single slap to save trouble."]
[Shen Wuyou dares not speak. Shortly after, the voice from the altar says it will handle the matter.]
[With those words, the altar shatters.]
[Shen Wuyou finally breathes a sigh of relief, having passed on this hot potato.]
[He has no desire to fight that old man named Li again.]
[At this moment, you are being led by Old Li towards Spine Mountain.]
[Old Li looks tense, constantly increasing his flying speed.]
[This makes you feel that there really might be some danger.]
[But what this danger is, you have no idea.]
[Soon, you and Old Li see Spine Mountain.]
[Only then does Old Li's expression relax a bit.]
[Seeing this, you think that perhaps Old Li has some trump card left here, and the danger will be less once you reach Spine Mountain!]
[But just then, you see a flash of purple light in the sky.]
["Boom!" A massive thunderclap echoes through the heavens and earth.]
[Heavenly Thunder? The words flash through your mind.]
[In an instant, the purple thunder strikes down, and Old Li fully exerts himself to shield you.]
[Soon, you realize you were wrong.]
[This is Heavenly Thunder, but also not Heavenly Thunder.]
[Because its power is even stronger.]
[Even with Old Li's Seventh Layer of Tribulation Crossing cultivation, he is severely injured in an instant.]
[Old Li looks at you and shouts, "Run! In the belly of Spine Mountain, there's a formation. Hide in it, and you might survive."]
[Then you see another purple thunderbolt strike Old Li, and he seems to be at the end of his strength, unable to get up.]
[Seeing this, you feel a deep sorrow but dare not hesitate. You quickly activate the Wind Chasing Art and flee towards Spine Mountain at full speed.]
[You understand that the formation Old Li mentioned might be the one left by the Formation Dao genius Lu Wuya, which you heard about in a previous simulation.]
[It was that formation that allowed Old Li to survive for thousands of years without being killed by Heavenly Thunder.]
[But how can your speed compare to Heavenly Thunder?]
[Especially this time, the Heavenly Thunder is clearly targeting you and is even more powerful.]
[A few seconds later, you are struck by the purple thunder.]
[You die at the age of 20.]
[This simulation ends.]
[You can choose two rewards from this simulation: Formation Dao Genius (Talent), Immortal Dao Cultivation (Core Formation stage), Divine Dao Cultivation (Core Formation stage)]
[Formation Dao Genius (Talent): Price 1 million Energy Value.]
[Immortal Dao Cultivation (Core Formation stage): Price 100 million Energy Value; achieved with a Ten-Grade Golden Core.]
[Divine Dao Cultivation (Core Formation stage): Price 200 million Energy Value; achieved with a Twelve-Grade Golden Core, an ancient cultivation path that integrates Martial Dao and Immortal Dao.]
(Note: In the early stages, Divine Dao levels are the same as Immortal Dao and Martial Dao, but spiritual energy and primordial energy can be converted, resulting in stronger combat power; however, breakthroughs are harder and require a very strong body.)
This time, the simulation didn't even last a year.
Jiang Yifeng didn't expect this.
He didn't expect Shen Wuyou to be able to communicate with celestial beings.
Nor did he expect that just reporting his breakthrough to the Core Formation stage with a Ten-Grade Golden Core would attract the intervention of celestial beings.
Moreover, the rewards from this simulation left Jiang Yifeng a bit bewildered.
What's going on? Why is there an additional Divine Dao?
But after reading the description, Jiang Yifeng understood a bit.
The Divine Dao is essentially dual cultivation of Immortal Dao and Martial Dao.
However, it adds a condition that the Immortal Dao and Martial Dao cannot be too far apart, and a strong physique is required to break through.
No need to overthink it; a bit more difficulty is fine as long as it's strong enough.
Just as Jiang Yifeng was about to choose his reward, he suddenly thought about the phenomenon that occurred during his breakthrough to the Core Formation stage in the simulation.
Would such a phenomenon occur in reality if he broke through?
If a phenomenon appears in reality, wouldn't that be the end of him?
