Cultivation Starts from Farming Chapter 878 - 390: Life and Death Divine Light Perfection (2)

First is the comprehension and success rate of breakthroughs, which can be greatly increased.

Then, when he engages in dual cultivation with Duan Shuang, even with his current Divine Sense strength, he can gain benefits.

As for the magic duels, there’s even less need for elaboration.

...

Half an hour later.

Duan Shuang gradually awoke.

After spending some tender moments together, Xu Ping returned to his own cave.

"I have now completely stabilized in the Mid-Stage Nascent Soul realm,"

Xu Ping once again sat cross-legged on the stone bed, beginning to earnestly meditate on his upcoming cultivation plans, "The opening of the Ancient Demon Hall is merely a dozen years away."

A dozen years.

Long for mortals, but for a Nascent Soul Cultivator, especially Xu Ping preparing to enter such a treacherous place as the Ancient Demon Hall, it is just the blink of an eye.

"With my current strength, combined with the Sword Array, Puppet Array, Ten Thousand Souls Banner, and other trump cards, the usual dangers within the Ancient Demon Hall should be effortlessly swept aside." Xu Ping’s eyes shone with immense confidence.

Mid-Stage Nascent Soul cultivation, coupled with his myriad heaven-defying methods, indeed gave him the confidence to make such claims.

"But...."

Xu Ping’s gaze sharpened like a blade, "The Ancient Demon Hall is no small matter, last time several Mid-Stage Nascent Soul cultivators perished, and there is even an ancient demon comparable to a Late-Stage threshold."

No room for the slightest negligence or underestimation, even a lion hunts a rabbit with full force!

"Hence, for the last dozen years, my primary goal will be cultivating the ’Life and Death Divine Light.’"

Xu Ping moved his thoughts, and his skill panel quietly opened.

[Life and Death Divine Light Mastery: 1136/1600]

...

Just over four hundred points of proficiency left, to usher in the transformation of Cultivation Technique Perfection.

All these years, Xu Ping’s cultivation focus has mainly been on realm breakthroughs and advancements in Sword Dao.

He has relatively neglected the cultivation of the ’Life and Death Divine Light,’ this killing Secret Technique, hence the progress is somewhat slow.

But now, he has successfully broken through to the Mid-Stage Nascent Soul.

If the ’Life and Death Divine Light’ can also reach a perfect realm,

then even a Late-Stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator would be unable to easily withstand the terrifying power of this Divine Technique.

This would undoubtedly greatly enrich his combat methods, adding an important trump card for the imminent journey to the Ancient Demon Hall.

...

In the span of a year, the news of Xu Ping’s advancement to Mid-Stage Nascent Soul spread throughout the outer sea.

All major top powers in the outer sea paid attention.

After all, Fellow Daoist Xu is not an ordinary cultivator.

His Early-Stage Nascent Soul combat power far exceeded that of typical top Mid-Stage Nascent Soul cultivators, now that he’s advanced to Mid-Stage Nascent Soul, his combat power has probably reached the threshold of a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator.

If we also consider his status as a Fourth Rank Middle Grade Talisman Master, even Late-Stage Nascent Soul cultivators would likely not put on any airs in front of him, treating him as an equal.

Mystic Water Sect.

When the couple Liang Ming and Lei Jingyan received the news of Xu Ping breaking through to Mid-Stage Nascent Soul, they too were surprised: "I never expected Fellow Daoist Xu to break through to Mid-Stage Nascent Soul so quickly."

Although Xu Ping’s combat power is unparalleled, breaking through the Nascent Soul mid-grade bottleneck is not easy.

Moreover, they observed Xu Ping’s vibrant vitality, suggesting he is not very old.

With such talent, breaking through to Nascent Soul Great Cultivator is likely very achievable.

Of course, they are friends with Xu Ping, so they have no jealousy or worry.

If Xu Ping truly breaks through to Late-Stage Nascent Soul, this is unquestionably also a good connection for them.

Thus, the couple immediately decided to visit Blood Bone Island to congratulate Xu Ping.

...

Wan Huan Island, deep within Hehuan Hall.

The Hehuan Old Devil sat upon the bone throne, his handsome face twisting into a devilish and gruesome mask.

"Nascent Soul... Mid-Stage..."

When Xu Ping was at Early-Stage Nascent Soul, he drove him, a mighty Mid-Stage Nascent Soul figure, into a pathetic retreat with terrifying sword light, a memory that haunts him still.

He originally thought Xu Ping would need quite a few years to break through.

But now, Xu Ping has broken through just like that?!

"This child, at Early-Stage Nascent Soul, could already crush me... Now at Mid-Stage....." A flash of fear appeared in the Hehuan Old Devil’s eyes, "Surely he has the ability to kill me!"

Though he depends on Xuanmo True Monarch, who should ensure his survival.

Moreover, Xuanmo True Monarch has promised to help him break through, but his bizarre nature and conditions make it difficult to put an end to.

Having roamed the outer sea for hundreds of years, the Hehuan Old Devil refuses to be a puppet in someone else’s hands, powerless over life and death.

Ultimately, all emotions converged into a resolve as crazy as desperation!

"Ancient Demon Hall!"

The Hehuan Old Devil suddenly raised his head, eyes flashing with frightful brilliance, "Only the Ancient Demon Hall holds heaven-defying opportunities!"

"Though perilous, with those demons at the brink of Late-Stage, the risks of perishing increases, yet it is my only hope."

Better to grasp one’s own fate than be controlled.

As long as I break through to Late-Stage Nascent Soul, all obstacles will vanish like smoke.

...

A year later, on Blood Bone Island.

The shadow of the beast tides over the outer sea still lingers, but its momentum has waned, harboring little risk for Nascent Soul cultivators crossing the sea.

Two Escape Lights broke through the thin mist, landing outside the Blood Bone Island’s Restriction; they were Liang Ming and Lei Jingyan arriving together.

"Fellow Daoist Liang, Fairy Lei, your esteemed presence greatly honors us." Xu Ping’s calm voice rang out, and the Restriction’s light curtain subsequently opened.

He stood with Duan Shuang before the island to welcome them.

At this moment, Xu Ping still wore his profound robe, but his aura was profound and unfathomable, exuding a dignified majesty that commanded admiration with every gesture.

Duan Shuang, in a plain dress, remained cold and aloof, yet stood beside Xu Ping.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, Fairy Duan."

Liang Ming smiled brightly, bowing in salute, his voice resonant, "Upon hearing that Fellow Daoist Xu reached Nascent Soul Mid-Stage in one stroke, it is truly fortunate."
