Chapter 135: Breakthrough to immortality?
[Year 14, you begin a secluded cultivation within the Qingyang Sect.]
[This time, you no longer focus on Pill Dao.]
[Instead, you fully commit to enhancing your Immortal Dao cultivation level.]
[Year 16, your Immortal Dao cultivation reaches the Second Layer of Tribulation.]
[It only took you two years to advance a minor realm.]
[This is a sensation you haven't experienced in a long time.]
[You must know, this isn't even the period when your Late Bloomer talent is triggered.]
[The fact that you can cultivate so quickly is naturally thanks to the Qingyang Sect.]
[Although Qingyang Sect is just a third-rate sect, its treasure trove has plenty of resources for you.]
[With the entire treasure trove at your disposal, it's hard not to advance quickly!][Of course, you must also thank your Taotie Divine Body!]
[Without it, you wouldn't be able to digest the resources so swiftly.]
[Year 18, your Immortal Dao cultivation reaches the Third Layer of Tribulation!]
[Year 20, the Fourth Layer of Tribulation.]
[Year 23, the Fifth Layer of Tribulation.]
[Year 26, the Sixth Layer of Tribulation.]
[Year 29, your Immortal Dao cultivation breaks through to the Seventh Layer of Tribulation.]
[At this point, the resources in Qingyang Sect's treasure trove that can quickly enhance your cultivation are nearly depleted.]
[Only the most basic Spirit Stones remain!]
[Year 30, you choose to exit seclusion.]
[Upon exiting, you discover that Little Peach's cultivation has already reached the first level of Body Integration Realm.]
[This is the seventh realm before becoming an immortal, and you can't count how many simulations it took you to reach Body Integration Realm.]
[Yet Little Peach has achieved it in such a short time.]
[With no cultivation resources and such rapid progress, it's truly enviable!]
[Of course, you merely sigh in admiration.]
[After all, you know clearly that this is just within the simulation.]
[No matter how fast she progresses, in reality, she can't possibly catch up to your realm!]
[And in the simulation, the stronger Little Peach becomes, the more she helps you.]
[Year 31, you once again lead the captives on an expedition.]
[Although the captives are somewhat unwilling, their lives are in your hands, so they have no choice but to obey.]
[This time, your target is a sect called Xingyue Sect.]
[How did you learn about this sect?]
[Because you found a map of the Great Wilderness's power distribution in Qingyang Sect's library.]
[This is also why you previously confined all the captives, preventing them from scouting.]
[Using the same method you used to deal with Qingyang Sect, you easily take down Xingyue Sect.]
[In fact, you don't need the captives; with your current strength, you could rob Xingyue Sect on your own.]
[But you think it's safer to use the Mortal Domain to bring the enemies down to the mortal realm, then have the captives you control suppress them with their cultivation.]
[This is why you've been controlling these people.]
[After taking down Xingyue Sect, you immediately open its treasure trove.]
[Confirming the abundance of cultivation resources, you once again confine all the captives.]
[You then enter seclusion for cultivation.]
[But this time, before going into seclusion, you take out some resources for Little Peach.]
[You instruct her to cultivate with all her might but to come to you before breaking through to immortality.]
[Little Peach doesn't understand why you give such instructions but nods in agreement.]
[After all, in her eyes, everything she has is given by you, the Young Master.]
[Whatever you say goes!]
[Year 32, you focus on cultivation!]
[Year 34, your Immortal Dao cultivation breaks through to the Eighth Layer of Tribulation.]
[Year 39, you reach the Ninth Layer of Tribulation.]
[Year 43, your Immortal Dao cultivation reaches the peak of Tribulation Crossing.]
[But you can't break through to the Immortal Realm because your Martial Dao is still stuck at the Eighth Layer of Semi-Saint.]
[You then start focusing entirely on Martial Dao cultivation.]
[You haven't used the Martial Dao treasures you had before.]
[With the Taotie Divine Body, you believe it won't take long for your Martial Dao to catch up.]
[In the blink of an eye, several years pass.]
[Year 60, your Martial Dao finally reaches the peak of Semi-Saint, just one step away from breaking through to War Saint!]
[Both your Immortal Dao and Martial Dao are on the verge of breaking through.]
[At this point, you only need to summon the tribulation for becoming an immortal to cross it and become an immortal.]
[But you seem to have some concerns and haven't chosen to break through yet.]
[Instead, you start cultivating the War God Body and Sword of Killing Intent from the War God Art.]
[You continuously strengthen your combat power!]
[Year 70, Little Peach comes to find you.]
[She tells you she has reached the peak of Tribulation Crossing and is ready to cross the tribulation to become an immortal.]
[This is what you instructed her before, to inform you before crossing the tribulation, and Little Peach has always remembered.]
[You are overjoyed upon hearing this.]
[You've been waiting for this day for a long time.]
[You tell Little Peach to go ahead and cross the tribulation to become an immortal.]
[Little Peach doesn't ask why and agrees immediately.]
[In the blink of an eye, a day passes, and Little Peach successfully crosses the tribulation, reaching the Mortal Immortal realm.]
[After she successfully crosses the tribulation, she doesn't encounter any danger.]
[This puts your mind at ease.]
[You think perhaps you were overthinking it.]
[Becoming an immortal outside the Southern Regions should be safe.]
[That's right, the reason you haven't crossed the tribulation to become an immortal is that you're worried about danger.]
[Although you know there are immortals outside the Southern Regions.]
[But who knows if those powerful beings in the Immortal Realm are targeting the Southern Regions or the people of the Southern Regions.]
[If they are preventing people from the Southern Regions from becoming immortals.]
[Then you think, even if you leave the Southern Regions, it would still be dangerous.]
[After all, you don't know the capabilities of those powerful beings.]
[Can they lock onto every person from the Southern Regions?]
[This is why you haven't crossed the tribulation to become an immortal.]
[Also, knowing Little Peach's talent, you gave her a lot of resources to let her cultivate with all her might.]
[You were waiting for Little Peach to cross the tribulation to the Immortal Realm.]
[You treated Little Peach as your pathfinder.]
[Now that she has crossed the tribulation without incident, you think you can also choose to cross the tribulation.]
[So, you start releasing your cultivation to summon the tribulation.]
[As you continuously release your cultivation.]
[The Primordial Energy of your Martial Dao and the spiritual energy of your Immortal Dao within you seem to know you are about to break through the bottleneck.]
[They start intertwining with each other.]
[You see the Primordial Energy of your Martial Dao and the spiritual energy of your Immortal Dao bizarrely begin to merge.]
[You confirm that you are not mistaken; they are merging, not transforming.]
[They gradually merge into a new kind of energy.]
[Gradually, strands of golden chaos energy are born within you.]
[And at this moment, you suddenly feel a chill down your spine.]
[As if something terrifying is looming.]
