Chapter 521: Chapter 246: 300 Sword Qi Barriers, the Chain Reaction of Killing the Demon Saint! (Explosive update today, asking for monthly tickets~)_2

[Eighth year, you killed the Damned Dragon and eliminated the greatest threat on the Blue Star.]

[Ninth year, your cultivation level increased to the mid-stage of the Body Integration Realm, sixth layer.]

[With the continuous improvement of your cultivation level, the amount of spiritual energy you required increased even more. Fortunately, you still had millions of drops of Spiritual Liquid, enough to cultivate to the peak of the sixth layer of the Body Integration Realm.]

[But what interested you more was the innate Fuso Divine Tree branch you obtained from True Person Wan Mu.]

[You discovered that this branch contained a trace of the Great Dao of Wood and a trace of the Great Dao of Fire.]

[These two traces of Dao Essence were not fundamental origins but true Dao comprehensions. If you could comprehend them, you would undoubtedly benefit greatly.]

[The Great Dao Principles were not something you could directly comprehend, but you could parse abundant Wood and Fire Origin Power from them, which was also greatly beneficial to you.]

[Thus, over the next two years, apart from cultivation, you also began to attempt to comprehend this seemingly ordinary branch.]

[Eleventh year, two years passed, and your comprehension of the Wood and Fire Origin Power had barely scratched the surface.]

[The origin of wood was full of vitality, which could make your life force more vigorous and speed up the healing of injuries.]

[By frequently comprehending the origin of wood, you could even prolong your life, having a lifespan far exceeding that of an ordinary Body Integration Realm cultivator.]

[The Fire Origin, on the other hand, made your spiritual energy more destructive and notably enhanced the power of your Li Fire Technique.]

[What excited you more was that you seemed to be able to integrate the Wood and Fire Origin Power into the Five Elements Burst Technique, significantly multiplying its power...]

[Unfortunately, before you could fully grasp the Wood and Fire Origin Power, Blood Three descended upon the Blue Star.]

[After much hesitation, you decided that upgrading your Qi Refining Cultivation at this stage was more important than comprehending the two Daos, so you offered the branch and successfully gained the trust and pass of Blood Three.]

Su Xing, upon seeing this, raised his eyebrows.

"Indeed! A Body Integration Realm cultivator can further comprehend the Origin Power..."

"And I possess dual-type spiritual roots of wood and fire; my innate comprehension of the Great Dao of Wood and Fire surpasses that of ordinary cultivators. Perhaps, later on, I can delve deeply into comprehending these two Origin Powers!"

For Su Xing, whether it was the accelerated healing from the Wood Origin or the enhancement of the Li Fire Technique from the Fire Origin, both were crucial.

"Sigh, it seems that as my cultivation level increases, breaking through bottlenecks becomes increasingly difficult..."

"Having three mutated Heavenly Spirit Roots is beneficial during the Body Integration Realm, but if I step into the Mahayana Realm, I might completely lose any advantage..."

"Even with my Nine Revolution Golden Core and super-class Nascent Soul... there's still a failure rate in breaking through to the late Body Integration Realm, let alone ordinary cultivators..."

Su Xing sighed.

The path of cultivation depended too heavily on aptitude and resources...

For Su Xing to improve his aptitude, he now had only two methods.

The first was to draw a gold-quality spiritual root.

The second was to achieve the second stage of the Heavenly Thunder Physique, further purifying the Thunder Spiritual Root and thus improving the quality of his spiritual roots...

"It was a pity that the Minor Spirit Gathering Array only boosted the speed during normal cultivation; during breakthroughs, it still depended on the quality of the spiritual roots..."

Su Xing slightly shook his head, vaguely guessing that the reason the Five Elements True Master failed to break through to the Body Integration Realm back then was due to an insufficient True Spiritual Root aptitude?

"However, the late Body Integration Realm is merely a minor bottleneck; with a bit of grinding, it should not be a big problem..."

Su Xing calmed his mind and refocused on the simulation panel.

[After failing to break through to the late Body Integration Realm, you were not discouraged but instead paid more attention to polishing your cultivation level.]

[That year, you went to the Slaughter Battlefield in the Beast Taming Realm, killing hundreds of Legendary Demon Beasts and three Demon Emperors.]

[Seventeenth year, the number of Sword Qi Barriers you controlled increased to one hundred ninety-six, with a slight enhancement in power.]

[Eighteenth year, you prepared one hundred thousand drops of mid-grade Spiritual Liquid and millions of drops of low-grade Spiritual Liquid for another breakthrough attempt.]

[This time, you succeeded.]

[Congratulations on reaching the seventh layer of the Body Integration Realm, becoming a late Body Integration Realm cultivator!]

[Nineteenth year, while rummaging through the storage ring of True Person Wan Mu, you inadvertently found a diary.]
