System's Super Sect Chapter 1388 - 1187: Pill Tower Established, Power Enhanced (Second Update, Still a Super - )

After strolling with his mother for another round, Wen Ping bid her farewell and entered the Spirit Fire Area. He then asked the system what grade of spirit fire he could subdue with his current spiritual power strength.

The system responded, "Celestial Level Lower Grade."

"If my spiritual power breaks through to the Third Stage, can I subdue a Celestial Level Middle Grade spirit fire?" If possible, Wen Ping definitely wanted to try for a higher-grade spirit fire.

Because his purpose in subduing the spirit fire wasn’t just for alchemy; he wanted to attempt fusing the spirit fire into the Cyan Lotus Sword Intent and the sword techniques to create a new method of attack.

Seeing that a Celestial Level spirit fire could actually harm his Earthly Cyan Lotus Body previously, he had developed this idea.

Because in Heaven-Gazing Gorge, no Heaven Unrestricted Realm strong ones’ spirit bodies could be stronger than his.

A Celestial Level spirit fire could harm the Earthly Cyan Lotus Body, which meant it could also harm them.

The system replied, "If your spiritual power reaches the Third Stage, you can subdue a Celestial Level Middle Grade spirit fire, but the success rate is low. Unless you elevate the Earthly Cyan Lotus Body to Great Success, you cannot fully subdue a Celestial Level Middle Grade spirit fire. As for the fusion of the spirit fire with Cyan Lotus Sword Intent and sword techniques, I cannot provide an answer."

"No need for your answer, I’ll try it myself when the time comes. I’ll first subdue the spirit fire!" Wen Ping immediately entered the Celestial Level Area.

There were a total of eighteen types of Celestial Level Lower Grade spirit fires.

Without hesitation, Wen Ping chose the strongest one—Celestial Wave Flame.

After making the choice, Wen Ping was immediately transported into a dark world, where the dark purple Celestial Wave Flame resided.

As soon as it sensed Wen Ping’s approach, the Celestial Wave Flame instantly illuminated the entire world, and its all-encompassing flames engulfed Wen Ping in an instant.

"So what I saw before was just a sample," Wen Ping couldn’t help but sigh, feeling the burning sensation from his body.

Following that, his spiritual power immediately explored outward, locking onto the flame seed at the center of the Celestial Wave Flame.

Boom—

His spiritual power directly invaded.

But the burning from the Celestial Wave Flame continued on him.

Feeling the resistance from the Celestial Wave Flame, Wen Ping simply sat down with crossed legs, intending not to leave until he subdued the Celestial Wave Flame.

And so, the days passed one after another.

A hundred days.

Two hundred days.

Three hundred days.

...

Of course, only a few days had passed outside the Pill Tower by then.

Finally, on the five hundredth day, the Celestial Wave Flame around Wen Ping was instantly devoured into his body, including the previously fiercely resisting Celestial Wave Flame.

Snap—

Wen Ping immediately snapped his fingers.

The Celestial Wave Flame, now a small flame, appeared on his fingertip.

Though small, the heat it contained was indeed hundreds and thousands of times that of the Punishment Fire.

After contentedly retracting it, Wen Ping immediately left the Spirit Fire Area and returned to Tingyu Pavilion to begin massively absorbing Wood Qi to restore his Earthly Cyan Lotus Body.

A moment later, the Earthly Cyan Lotus Body, which had been severely damaged by sixty percent, was restored to its original state.

Of course.

These days, all the Wood Qi produced by the Jianmu and Undying Tree were depleted by him.

This also meant that cultivation would have to pause for a few days.

"Oh right, I almost forgot to upgrade the price refresh of the Limit Knowledge Building." Wen Ping suddenly realized, quickly opened the Limit Knowledge Building, and chose to upgrade.

[Upgrading Limit Knowledge Building...]

[Time required: 400 hours]

After closing the system interface, Wen Ping hurried to the Final Forbidden Area of the Fa Yuan Valley, re-entered the third challenge of the Cyan Dragon Cave, and faced the Black Shadow again.

Last time, the Black Shadow only used one sword strike, and he lost.

This time, he wanted to use the Black Shadow to practice.

Without hesitation, Wen Ping directly entered the third challenge.

Meanwhile, the Cyan Lotus Sword was first happy to see Wen Ping return, but then thought that if Wen Ping passed the third challenge, it would have to be used to chop bamboo.

It suddenly wasn’t so happy anymore.

The next moment, Wen Ping was forced out of the third challenge by one sword strike from the Black Shadow.

Bang—

Wen Ping still flew back a hundred steps before stopping.

But this time, Wen Ping didn’t retreat immediately; instead, he plunged back in, trying to use the intense pressure from the Black Shadow to merge the Celestial Wave Flame with the Cyan Lotus Sword Intent.

Of course, merging the two was not that simple.

The repulsive force between them wasn’t ordinary. Until Wen Ping was defeated over three hundred times did he discover a method to reduce the repulsion.

It was to let the Changmo Technique release Wood Qi.

Using Wood Qi as a mediator to lessen the repulsion between the two and gradually increase their compatibility.

Just like that, after being defeated over a thousand times, with his two hands almost numb from the trembling, the fusion finally showed some progress.

For the first time, the Celestial Wave Flame merged with the Six-leaf Cyan Lotus, after which the Third Form of Cyan Lotus Sword, Cyan Lotus Chaotic Dance, was unleashed again, overwhelming the Black Shadow.

The Black Shadow still only used one sword.

Boom—

The two collided.

This time, Wen Ping was only pushed back ten steps.

The retreating ten steps meant that the power gap between the two was significantly reduced.

One could even say they were nearly equal!

Now Wen Ping only needed to successfully cultivate the Cyan Lotus Seven Swords Fourth Form, or elevate the Earthly Cyan Lotus Body to the Great Success Realm, or perhaps obtain a better sword from the Immortal Slaying World.

For example, the Immortal Slaying Sword.

Perhaps then he could pass the third challenge.

If he passed, he would be invincible below the Half-Step Primordial Vast.

Because the Black Shadow is currently invincible below the Half-Step Primordial Vast.

"Perfect!"

"Cyan Lotus Sword, get ready to be a chopping knife."

Wen Ping rejoiced, then prepared to continue using the Black Shadow to hone his Fourth Form, but at this moment, the Sound Transmission Stone suddenly moved.

As soon as Wen Ping connected the Sound Transmission Stone, Sikong Zhuxing’s voice came from the other end.

"Sect Leader Wen, the position of Grand General commanding all Divine Generals requires someone below Sealing King, which is the Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm. Regarding the second issue you asked me to handle, I’ve sorted it out as well. In the Sovereign’s heart, there is currently someone in mind, currently recognized as the first in the Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm of the You Country, Qi Tianze."

"Keep talking."

"Qi Tianze comes from the Six-star power of the Extreme Domain, Mountain Peak Sect, and is also the Direct Disciple of its Sealing King Ancestor. In the past fifty years, he’s challenged almost all the Middle Realm strong ones, and no one has been his match. Moreover, he hasn’t pledged allegiance to any royal family’s Sealing King, so the Sovereign’s best candidate is him."

"Is it confirmed?"

"Not yet, it’s still in the deliberation stage, but the news has already spread. Because the seven royal family’s Sealing Kings have been causing quite a fuss, the Sovereign wants to use Qi Tianze’s prowess to silence them. With Qi Tianze’s power, certainly no one can interfere with him securing the position of Grand General. By that time, all the Divine Shadow Army on the battlefield, as well as hundreds of millions of Divine Shadow Army, will be under his command."

"Keep an eye on it, and inform me when there’s any new development." Wen Ping didn’t say much, and after putting away the Sound Transmission Stone, he continued cultivating.

Since the Sovereign intends to use Qi Tianze’s prowess to silence all the royal family’s Sealing Kings, he would watch and see how it unfolds.

The position of Grand General of the Divine Shadow Army wielded such power that those royal family’s Sealing Kings wouldn’t give it up. No matter how strong Qi Tianze was, he was only one person after all.

Those royal family’s Sealing Kings wouldn’t risk confronting a Sealing King, but they certainly would think of ways to eliminate Qi Tianze.

Just after another day of cultivation, the Sound Transmission Stone rang again.

It was still Sikong Zhuxing.

As soon as the Sound Transmission Stone connected, Sikong Zhuxing’s urgent voice sounded.

"Sect Leader Wen, Qi Tianze is dead!"

"Expected." Wen Ping had anticipated that Qi Tianze might die, but didn’t expect it to be so soon.

Only a day had passed.

Everyone vying for the Sovereign’s position, who doesn’t have hidden forces?

Sikong Zhuxing quickly said, "Qi Tianze won two rounds, the people sent by Prince Longyang and those sent by King Yeze both lost, so I thought he would continue winning, but in the third round, he suddenly encountered an unknown Middle Realm strong one. In just half an hour, Qi Tianze was defeated. Not only defeated, but he was also torn to pieces! Now the Sovereign has already summoned me."

"Go ahead, whether the Sovereign of You Country has other candidates or not, you should recommend Si Haixian. How to proceed specifically, you’ll have to see for yourself. In any case, create opportunities for Si Haixian."

"But Qi Tianze is dead."

"That’s not for you to worry about, just focus on helping Si Haixian."

Sikong Zhuxing was silent for a few breaths, then slowly nodded and said, "Sect Leader Wen, I understand. Leave this matter to me."
