Chapter 118

*1st Pov*

Since then, 2 months have passed. I had easily cultivated past the Body refinement realm and had entered the 3rd stage of Soul Refinement. With my soul constantly being refined, my absorption rate, which was already past 100%, is now even bigger. Each and every day, I would have to teleport somewhere during stopped time and cultivate, simply because it takes around 10 minutes for me to finish absorbing the energy from a land of 1000 meters, meaning 10 kilometres. Quite an accomplishment.

However, after reaching this stage, cultivation has become increasingly slow. So slow, that I probably cant fill in 1/100th every session of cultivation. Naturally, there was a counter to this. A few, I should say. And right now, one of those is where I'm heading. The Yang Technique Palace.

Though it would mostly have trash techniques, one of the solutions to my current problem is training with a body-strengthening technique. The stronger the body is, the more it can absorb and store. As well as the fact that my body overall gets stronger. So, I headed to the Yang Technique Palace, and flashing my Golden Trinket, I was allowed to the third floor.

The Yang Technique Palace has 4 floors. The first is common techniques, for everyone in this sect. The second is for inner disciples, the third is for Core disciples or those with equal standing, and lastly, the fourth floor is for V.I.P's, like the sect master, or the direct disciple of the Sect Master.

I browsed through the books, touching them, and storing it in my LoHP. By the time I had collected all the body strengthening techniques in the third floor, I continued the process with cultivation techniques, and then soul techniques, before repeating the same on the second and first floor.

Shortly after, I returned back to my room, and compiled three books.

'These books will be sufficient for now.' I thought while reading the first book, the perfected cultivation technique that I merged into my own technique, forming an upgrade of my current technique.

'Ill call this technique Heaven's Path All-suiting soul technique. As for the body strengthening technique, Ill call it Tempering Multi-Body technique. Lastly, the soul technique can be called Soul Realisation.' I thought. I started by cultivating the Tempering Multi-Body technique, and in just a few minutes, my soul energy had already been exhausted. Yet, my body was at the peak of the 5th rank of the Body refinement realm. Previously, it just barely reached the 5th rank.

Soon after, I used the Heaven's Path All-suiting soul technique. As soon as I used it, a huge storm appeared above me.

'This looks to be tribulation lightning. If I continue, I will probably ascend to the next realm. If I stop, I can simply dilute my cultivation technique.' I thought. After some time, I decided to ascend.

'By ascending, I can face the Tribulation lightning, thus I could absorb it and gather more soul energy to convert into my cultivation. And in the higher-realm, there is much more soul and qi energy.' I thought. I continued to drive my cultivation technique to the maximum, summoning the full strength of the lightning. I also tried to transform into a titan, further strengthening this lightening. By the time it was about to descend, I was ready. I had my Sharingan ready, and if anything bad happened, Emperors Realm would immediately stop time.

[What are you waiting for? Are you this weak to just stay idle? I'm disappointed.] I said mockingly. The tribulation lightening immediately strengthened and descended on me. I circulated the Heaven's Path All-suiting soul technique, along with the Tempering Multi-Body technique, and my cultivation soared through the roof.

As my cultivation increased, the lightning got progressively stronger and longer. By the time the lightning had stopped, and realised it was helping me, I was already at the peak of the 7th rank.

A golden light surrounded me as I ascended.

___________

*In the higher realms, Chung city.*

A golden light struck not even 1 kilometre away from Chung city. Every cultivator who witnessed this scene immediately rushed to where the golden light descended. The first cultivator to get there was a beginning True God, the rank after a Heavenly Monarch. This realm went form the 1st rank to the 5th rank (I - V). Similarly, after ascending, Frey too had reached this level.

'What a rigged cultivation technique, forcing me to ascend to a higher realm to use it. Well, good enough for me, I guess.' I thought. I then used all of the remaining red lightning within the Kamui dimension to consolidate my foundation, which was significantly easier than before. I had consolidated my foundation to the maximum before running out of red lightning. From there, I took out my sword that was stored in my inventory, and faced the direction of where a women in red appeared, along side a white-robed male with black hair.

[So this is the newly ascended True God... He is just a brat. Kill him for me.] the women said. The man instantly charged at Frey.

[You want to fight me, do you? Ignorance truely is a bliss!] I claimed as I slashed out with my sword.

An image of a slice in the air, rupturing space and defying time appeared. The man dodged out of the way and sent out a shockwave from his fist.

I scoffed, and using my Sharingan, I perfectly mimicked the punch and sent one on equal power right back. A shcokwave appeared from the clash, sending the white robed man a few dozen kilometres away. I had protected myself with my own body, not circulating any kind of energy.

However, the battle wasn't over yet. I summoned Emperor's realm, which the man could see, and used it in conjunction with myself to continue to deliver shockwave after shockwave. I stopped time as the shockwaves were right in his face, and quickly flew near him. However, he broke out of the frozen time, and invaded my time stopped world.

[You think that a simple trick such as this would puzzle me?] he questioned, slightly surprised at how I could even stop time in the first place.

[You think that was it? Think faster.] I said. Emperors Realm was right behind him, and sent out a deadly punch full of energy within it.

[Shit!] the man exclaimed.

As time resumed, the mans right arm, up till the shoulder, was punched into smithereens.

[You... you dare!] he screamed out.

[You think you can contend against me? Its only been this short amount of time, and you've already lost your right arm.] I said.

This whole time, only 1 millisecond had passed. That is the level of power True God's wield.

[You forced me!] he said. He swiftly took out a syringe from a storage ring, and injected it within himself. His whole body practically transformed into a Hulk, with his arm being regenerated. Along side him, 2 more people appeared, both at the True God realm as well.

[So what if its 1 on 3? Absolute power dominates all.] I said.

[Heh, you think your measly eye bloodline technique can do something against a Quilin True God?] he smirked as with a wave of his hand, a 500 meter Quilin appeared.

[This is my strongest power. You better get ready.] I said coldly

[Hah, strongest power? Stop bluffing, you are going to lose your face.] he said as the other 2 also joined in and laughed.

[I am not trying to save face nor am I bluffing by saying this is my strongest power. If you wanna fight, then shut up and fight.] I said. The small sword wielded by my Susanoo slashed at the Quilin, and before it could even react, it was sliced into millions of pieces. I quickly used a Fuji-mixed Amaterasu on the three.

They all died, mind, body and soul.
