Chapter 329: Chapter 145: Jixia Breaks Through the Primordial Pill, Ascends Yunluan, Xiuxiu, Let Me Tell You the Truth from Decades Ago! (Part 2)

Chen Zhao felt a sudden chill in his heart. He wanted Jixia to clarify matters, not wanting to see the events of those years replayed.

However, just as Chen Zhao was about to step forward, Jixia, who was cross-legged and meditating, raised his hand and stopped him with a glance:

"Chen Zhao, I know what you want to say."

Jixia looked around at the astonished eyes and finally fixed his gaze on Ruan Xiuxiu, speaking gently:

"Senior Sister Xiuxiu."

"I never needed to prove anything."

"But I cannot let you be deceived by the ’shell’ I shed once, now a corpse with intelligence."

"So today,"

"I will show you..."

"The so-called ’truth’."

Jixia slowly crossed his legs.

The mystical phenomena above the Guardian Mansion began to gather and form.

Song Brahman Mirror’s eyes widened in surprise:

"This is..."

She placed her radiant and colorful eyes on Jixia, halting Ruan Xiuxiu, who had been tense and ready to strike, and felt a surge of joy in her heart.

The phenomenon entangled.

Before the fourth step ’Heaven-Striking Sect’, there was only one possibility!

And that is...

To condense the ’Primordial Pill’, forming a top-grade pill!

Yet Jixia’s martial practice from mortal beginnings to now...

How young was he??

Even if he was once Song Chai Xin, a remarkable genius, who walked out of Xuanqing Lake at fifteen, pacified the Northwest Demons and Monsters, and returned home with honor to verify the Primordial Pill... it still took a full six years!

But as Jixia,

He defied all cultivation norms.

Becoming someone even the royal body or royal blood may not match!

Except for those Dharma Seekers from the past, pursuing ’Immortals’, nowhere else in the world would one find such a person again!

Indeed————

Just as Song Brahman Mirror suspected.

As Jixia maintained his calm and composed state, holding the One within the Origin, the pill in his dantian, which had absorbed all the spiritual essence from Song Chai Xin’s corpse, was gradually refined by him.

At the same time,

The already acquired two decades worth of power from the Great Innate ’Yellow Court Realm’ also began to surge and grow rapidly...

The image of the ’Great Demon Hunter Master’ in his mind also grew increasingly ’clear and distinct’.

The figure with arms wrapped in Demon-Suppressing Chains, like treading on a ’Turtle and Snake Altar’, with a fluttering cape, changed from having its back turned to him, or being too vague to discern, to becoming more and more distinct...

And at the corner of that flapping cloak,

Two seal script characters were faintly embroidered————

’Treading Immortal’!

Treading Immortal!

Whether this was the name of the ’Great Demon Hunter Master’ or his title was unknown, but the sheer spirit conveyed by these two words was enough to stir one’s heart and soul.

"In today’s world, the Martial Dao can only reach the fourth step."

"Even a top expert in the Zhenren Realm, with the mightiest Divine Techniques, only dares claim ’half-skill’; true Dharma Seekers and Immortal figures are said to only exist in the ’Grotto Heaven’!"

"Daring to embroider ’Treading Immortal’, what kind of universe-swallowing spirit is this!"

"Combined with the fact that the late Great Demon Hunter Master suppressed the Grotto Heaven, apparently crushing even a true ’Grotto Heaven Immortal’, it becomes even more unbelievable, like a myth, a legend!"

As Jixia contemplated this internally and witnessed this scene, his heart was also stirred...

The bottleneck of ’Carefree Realm’ at the peak of the Great Innate swiftly advanced, becoming more substantial!

Essence, Qi, Spirit!

As Song Chai Xin, the Primordial Pill he left behind could indeed convert into vitality and True Qi, assisting his current self in unlocking the channels and meridians throughout his body.

Yet it could not make his ’Divine Soul, Divine Thought’ achieve in an instant or a moment the breakthrough to the Jade Liquid level he once had.

However————

The ’Great Demon Suppression Master Map’ gained insight from the Hidden Demon Profound Body, as Jixia’s level of contemplation further advanced from ’vague’ to ’blurred’, had already helped make up for this missing link.

Furthermore...

If he could fully discern the figure and divine appearance of the ’Great Demon Hunter Master’... perhaps!

Jixia’s Divine Soul density might directly equal a ’True Master’!

By then, even the Celestial Domain at the Peak of the Primordial Pill couldn’t suppress him in the slightest.

Bang!

As Jixia continuously refined the ’Primordial Pill’ he had ingested, his cultivation rapidly surged, successively traversing from Yellow Court, Carefree, to the pivotal third step of condensing the ’Primordial Pill’.

Just as he was about to transform the ’Jade Liquid Void Pill’, manifesting two self-protective Fist Dao ’phenomena’, suddenly!

Swoosh!!

An ’illusory and vast’ figure, with disheveled hair, unexpectedly emerged from the Primordial Pill and materialized in the ’main hall’!

"Song Chai Xin..."

"I really underestimated you."

"What extraordinary fate allowed you to sneak past my eyes fifty-seven years ago and, like ’reincarnation’, reappear in this world with a brand new body once again?"

It was him!

Under the clear daylight, a figure suddenly appearing at the Guardian Mansion astonished everyone.

A disheveled-haired, bare-chested young True Monarch stood, with an eye seemingly containing the sun and moon.

His skin was covered with various crimson runes, blending seamlessly, making him appear extremely ethereal.

Yet upon his arrival, Song Brahman Mirror and Ruan Xiuxiu, two figures at the fourth step, were overshadowed by him.

In an instant, the originally confronting and silent two women.

Seeing the sudden shift in events as Jixia broke through the ’Primordial Pill’,

They simultaneously tightened their hearts, turning their gazes towards this uninvited guest.

But before they could react,

Jixia, who was meditating, opened his eyes:

"True Monarch, long time no see. You come bearing a grand gift for me; I still don’t know how to thank you."

"But after some thought, it’s better not to bother."

"After all, seeing you in this state, maybe you should thank me instead."

"Back then, you kneeled in the ’Immortal Nirvana Palace’, unnoticed by everyone but me; yet now, you are exposed to the world at large, seemingly having recovered quite a bit?"
