Chapter 849: Progression to Soul Merge Realm

Chapter 849: Progression to Soul Merge Realm

Translator: jinzeffect

After strolling around for a few days, Li Fuchen finally knew how much peak-grade spirit stones his resources were worth.

Taking out the Bright Fruit and Shadow Fruit, Li Fuchen’s resources were worth roughly 15,000 peak-grade spirit stones. There would be a fluctuation of not more than 2000 peak-grade spirit stones.

“Let me trade a portion first.” Li Fuchen didn’t trade all of them.

This was his first visit to this place. If he traded too many resources, he would attract unnecessary attention.

So when he had possession of 3000 peak-grade spirit stones, he stopped trading and looked for an inn to stay in.

Inside the room, Li Fuchen’s body shrunk and he sat with crossed legs.

“I wonder how many peak-grade spirit stones will be needed to reach the latter state of half-saint.”

Taking a deep breath, Li Fuchen circulated the Primary Extreme Sword Technique and started to absorb the spirit qi within the peak-grade spirit stones.

One, two, five, ten…

As each peak-grade spirit stone was turned into dust, Li Fuchen’s qi presence was increasing rapidly.

79, 80…

Li Fuchen had estimated wrongly. 80 peak-grade spirit stones weren’t enough for him to progress to the latter state of half-saint.

85…

90…

Finally, after absorbing 90 peak-grade spirit stones, Li Fuchen’s cultivation reached the latter state of half-saint.

Li Fuchen opened his eyes and let out a bitter smile. “The higher the rank of the cultivation technique, the higher the consumption of resources. I wonder how much resources were used for those heaven lords to reach their level.”

In order to become a heaven lord, a 1st rate apex cultivation technique was required. But Li Fuchen’s Primary Extreme Sword Technique was only at 3rd rate apex state.

Li Fuchen reckoned that if the Primary Extreme Sword Technique was a 1st rate apex cultivation technique, it wouldn’t just be 90 peak-grade spirit stones for Li Fuchen to reach the latter state of half-saint. 900 peak-grade spirit stones might not be enough.

The most helpless method would be to rely on the absorption of heaven and earth energy to increase cultivation.

A 2nd rate apex cultivation technique would be the same as to absorb peak-grade spirit stones, but cultivating for an entire day would be the same as to absorb one or two peak-grade spirit stones. With the impurities in heaven and earth energy, time would be needed to purify the absorbed qi. A short period of time wouldn’t be significant, but if it carried on, and if they weren’t purified, it would damage the foundation. It would then affect the future cultivation.

Of course, no matter what, the higher the rank of the cultivation technique, the better it was. Saints weren’t lacking time and as long as the rank of the cultivation technique was high, the cultivation would definitely make progress, even without resources.

After reaching the latter state of half-saint, Li Fuchen was now at the pinnacle of half-saint.

The pinnacle of half-saint wasn’t a level. Once the qi at the latter state of half-saint was accumulated to extremity, it would be the pinnacle of half-saint. Therefore, just by using 50 peak-grade spirit stones, Li Fuchen successfully reached the pinnacle of half-saint.

Right now, Li Fuchen was just one step away from the 1st level of Soul Merge Realm.

But plenty of people were all obstructed by this one step. There were many who weren’t talented enough and many who didn’t have a good cultivation technique, there were also many that didn’t have enough resources and had to rely on a long period of qi accumulation. Those that were old would die of old age before being able to accumulate enough.

“I have over 2800 peak-grade spirit stones left. It should be enough right?”

Li Fuchen wasn’t certain. In the Deep Blue Plane, there were many saints who had cultivation techniques that were only near the apex state and were inferior to Li Fuchen’s old Primary Extreme Sword Technique. Li Fuchen’s Primary Extreme Sword Technique was currently at 3rd rate apex state.

Without choosing to rush for Soul Merge Realm immediately, Li Fuchen rested for half a month and stabilized his cultivation before preparing for the rush.

Of course, the location for the breakthrough must not be at the inn. The Thousands Spirit City was protected by the array. Most of the places couldn’t allow the heaven calamity to descend. Without the cleansing from the heaven calamity, it was most probably impossible to break through.

In the Thousands Spirit City, there was a dedicated place where saints broke through. It was called the heaven calamity mountain.

There wasn’t just one Heaven Calamity Mountain, there were multiple. Arriving at the nearest heaven calamity mountain, Li Fuchen paid the fee of one peak-grade spirit stone and was brought to a platform at the mid-section of the mountain.

“This platform is embedded with a restriction. Apart from you, no one can enter, therefore, you can be at ease and break through.”

“Many thanks.”

Once the attendant left, Li Fuchen looked up and still saw the array. But this array wouldn’t isolate the heaven calamity. Instead, it would attract heaven calamity.

“Let’s begin the breakthrough then.”

Li Fuchen sat cross-legged in the middle of the platform and started to absorb the spirit qi within the peak-grade spirit stones.

…

One day, two days…

Soon enough, one week passed by.

Rumble!

Outside the array above Li Fuchen’s head, a thick and black cloud gathered while green thunderbolts were flashing.

“2500 peak-grade spirit stones. It is better than expected.”

After keeping the peak-grade spirit stones, Li Fuchen looked up at the black cloud.

He could feel what kind of power was gathered in the black cloud.

Crack Boom!

A green crystal-like thunderbolt blasted down and covered half the platform.

Li Fuchen’s body felt a slight pain before he felt a numb sensation. It felt as though something was seeping out from the deepest part of his body.

2nd thunderbolt, 3rd thunderbolt…

Hundreds of green thunderbolts crashed down. The entire platform had turned into a sea of thunderbolts and it was truly a shocking sight.

“Such a foul odor. I didn’t think that there would still be impurities in my body.”

Sticky impurities of all colors appeared on Li Fuchen’s skin. As soon as the impurities oozed out, they were scorched and disintegrated by the thunderbolts.

1000 thunderbolts, 2000 thunderbolts…

Li Fuchen’s heaven calamity was entirely different from others when they progressed to Soul Merge Realm. The thunderbolts were just like rain and were extremely condensed. Had it been anyone else, they would have died 100 times.

“Bloodline and qi blood source are both getting strengthened and purified. It seems like the impurities are from the bloodline and qi blood source. It is impossible to eliminate them during regular cultivation. Only the power of the universe’s heaven calamity can do it.”

The green thunderbolts were gradually weakening and next up, the blue thunderbolts were brewing.

The blue thunderbolts were different from regular blue thunderbolts. They gave off prowess that was intimidating and didn’t seem like they were from this world.

After thousands of blue thunderbolts, it was followed by the purple thunderbolts.

“Green, blue, purple… Could it be?”

Li Fuchen recalled his spirit soul. His spirit soul evolved from grey to green, to blue, then to purple. Could the thunderbolts be related to the spirit soul?

There was no time to bother about those details. When the purple thunderbolts descended, Li Fuchen’s body started to twitch, while cracks and charred marks appeared.

The green thunderbolts were like static electricity, while the blue thunderbolts were only giving him slight pain. But the purple thunderbolts made Li Fuchen feel threatened. If he didn’t treat them seriously, he might just be struck to death.

Li Fuchen didn’t know that his breakthrough had attracted the attention of the Black Sea Saint who was overseeing this heaven calamity mountain.

The Black Sea Saint was peak level saint and for all the years he looked over the heaven calamity mountain, he had never seen any breakthrough that was as intense as Li Fuchen’s breakthrough. It was probably not even a hundredth. Even if the Black Sea Saint was a fool, he knew that Li Fuchen was definitely a rare prodigy. Such rare prodigies would have heaven-defying resources for sure.

“It seems like I can collaborate with the Dogras Clan.”

The Black Sea Saint took out a communication token and was secretly contacting someone.

After thousands of purple thunderbolts, Li Fuchen had already broken through to the 1st level of Soul Merge Realm. Right now, his bloodline was countless times purer, so was his qi blood source. Be it his bloodline or qi blood source, they were emitting a trace of eternal aura.

Just as Li Fuchen thought the heaven calamity ended, a faint red thunderbolt suddenly descended and struck on Li Fuchen’s body.

This time, the heaven calamity didn’t temper Li Fuchen’s bloodline and qi blood source. It tempered his bone frame.

Crack Boom!

Li Fuchen’s bone frame was upgraded from 8-star to 9-star and to the apex of 9-star. Apart from that, the tempered bone frame was extremely pure and didn’t have a trace of impurity. The original flame attribute had also been removed.
