Chapter 270: Chapter 49: The Abnormal Transformation of the Divine King Dream Spirit Method
One of these was a precious herb that allowed him to perfect his Qi Sea Magical Power and condense his Life Talisman.
However, he did not reveal his Cultivation, continuing to present himself as having only a Sensing Cultivation.
The other item he obtained in the Void Ghost Marketplace was a beast-skin scroll, upon which was recorded a Body Refining Secret Technique called the *Demon God Sutra*.
Dream Spirit began cultivating this sutra and ventured deep into the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range. Relying on the wondrous power of the Immortal Binding Rope, he hunted and killed over a hundred Tier Two Demon Apes. By refining their blood essence, he finally mastered a Secret Technique: the Demon Ape Transformation! freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
From that point on, his physical body was comparable to that of a Demon Beast, and his strength increased dramatically.
He continued to maintain a low profile. His shop in the marketplace never ran out of stock, and he gradually built a good reputation. Many prominent families, Loose Cultivators, and even Cultivators from the Immortal Cloud Sect began coming to him to purchase Demon Beast Materials.
「The thirteenth year.」
The man from the Beast Taming Sect went out to explore a Secret Realm and found a treasure. However, he was betrayed by a friend who killed him for it, and he perished deep within the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.
The mother and daughter from the Beast Taming Sect lost their provider. Alone and helpless, they were on the verge of being forced out of the marketplace to fend for themselves.
Dream Spirit’s dao companion couldn’t bear to see their plight. She mediated the situation and persuaded Dream Spirit to take them in.
In return, the two of them offered him a Secret Technique from the Beast Taming Sect.
With the Beast Taming Sect’s Secret Technique, Dream Spirit refined a massive amount of Sun-Devouring Divine Ape blood essence, and his power grew with each passing day.
「The twenty-first year.」
After some maneuvering, the two children of the household successfully joined the Immortal Cloud Sect to begin their cultivation.
Their neighbors in the marketplace all came to offer their congratulations.
「The thirtieth year.」
He entered the Void Ghost Marketplace again and obtained an Otherworld Divine Pill. It could help one condense a Life Talisman, increasing the chance of success by fifty percent.
Dream Spirit gave the Divine Pill to his daughter and adopted daughter, who were cultivating at the Immortal Cloud Sect.
The two girls were already cultivating at an astonishing pace thanks to their family’s support. Now, with the Divine Pill, they went into secluded cultivation for several months and both successfully broke through to the next realm.
The entire Immortal Cloud Sect was shaken by the news.
「The thirty-third year.」
The adopted daughter discovered the whereabouts of her father’s murderer and pursued him into the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, only to fall into his trap.
Fortunately, Dream Spirit arrived in the nick of time. He swept aside the enemies, rescued his adopted daughter, and helped her finally avenge her father.
This incident alarmed a Late-stage Life Talisman Loose Cultivator in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range named Jin Wanderer, who personally moved to hunt down Dream Spirit.
Dream Spirit unleashed his Sun-Swallowing Divine Ape Transformation Divine Technique, transforming into a hundred-foot-tall Giant Ape, and beat Jin Wanderer to a pulp.
The adopted daughter was utterly stunned. Only then did she realize her adoptive father was a reclusive master. She couldn’t help but secretly develop romantic feelings for him. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
「The thirty-sixth year.」
His adopted daughter invited Dream Spirit to explore a set of Ancient Ruins. Dream Spirit was initially reluctant, but he couldn’t withstand her persistent wheedling and eventually agreed.
Several months later, the ruins were revealed to the world.
A vast number of Life Talisman Cultivators from the Immortal Cloud Sect, the Beast Taming Sect, Nebula Pavilion, the Joyful Union Sect, and the Ghost King Sect—as well as from numerous prominent families and Second-tier Sects—all gathered. They surged into the Ancient Ruins to fight for treasure, unleashing a storm of blood and gore.
Dream Spirit led his adopted daughter on a rampage, sweeping through all opposition. He was nearly invincible against those of the same realm, cutting down countless foes.
The other Cultivators felt despair and fear in the face of this inconspicuous, unknown Cultivator.
Dream Spirit continued his sweep, seizing the most valuable treasure in the ruins, but this drew the collective ire of the other Cultivators, who besieged him.
In the end, Dream Spirit and his adopted daughter managed to fight their way out of the ruins. However, they were heavily injured and relentlessly pursued. Even with the power of the Immortal Binding Rope and the Sun-Swallowing Divine Ape Transformation, they were simply outnumbered.
Left with no other choice, his adopted daughter initiated a Dual Cultivation Technique with Dream Spirit to heal their wounds... and the two of them managed to escape.
「The thirty-seventh year.」
Dream Spirit refined the treasure from the ruins, and his Cultivation advanced to the Late-Life Talisman Stage.
Unable to bear the heartache of her longing, the adopted daughter took the initiative to confess everything to her mother.
Dream Spirit came to enjoy the bliss of having both women in his life. He focused solely on his cultivation, ignoring the troubles of the world.
「The fifty-ninth year.」
A Life Talisman Elder from the Joyful Union Sect came to the marketplace and happened to recognize that Dream Spirit possessed one of their sect’s Secret Techniques. He secretly placed a tracking mark on him.
One day, when Dream Spirit was heading to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, he was, as expected, intercepted by the Joyful Union Sect Elder. The Elder intended to violently suppress him and force him to reveal the origin of the Secret Technique.
Dream Spirit turned the tables and killed the Joyful Union Sect Elder. With his dying breath, the Elder revealed a shocking piece of news—
The Joyful Union Sect was about to ally with the Ghost King Sect, one of the five great powers, to launch a joint attack on the Immortal Cloud Sect.
His adopted daughter brought this news back to the Immortal Cloud Sect.
「The sixtieth year.」
He entered the Void Ghost Marketplace again, obtained a wondrous item, and after refining it, his Life Talisman began to metamorphose.
「The sixty-third year.」
He broke through to the Life Soul Realm.
「The sixty-fifth year.」
The Joyful Union Sect and the Ghost King Sect joined forces, crossed the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, and launched their assault on the Immortal Cloud Sect.
The Immortal Cloud Sect, having been forewarned, laid an ambush for the two sects’ Cultivators in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, and a massive battle erupted.
After several months, with both sides suffering wins and losses, they reached a stalemate, using the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range as their battlefield.
The three major sects dispatched their Sensing Realm and Life Talisman Realm Cultivators to patrol the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, launching surprise attacks to wear down each other’s core forces.
Meanwhile, the Life Soul Realm cultivators from all three sects remained hidden, biding their time.
「The seventy-second year.」
The Joyful Union Sect sent a spy to infiltrate the Ten Thousand Beasts Marketplace. The spy seduced the Immortal Cloud Sect Elder in charge of the marketplace’s Grand Array, convincing him to defect.
Following this, Ghost King Sect Cultivators launched a massive assault on the Ten Thousand Beasts Marketplace, attempting to plunder its staggering wealth.
Dream Spirit appeared. He blew out a single breath of mystic air, and flames erupted on the bodies of the Ghost King Sect Cultivators. One by one, they died on the spot and were reduced to ash.
The Cultivator leading the assault was the grandson of a Ghost King Sect Supreme Elder. Upon his grandson’s death, a Ghost King Sect Life Soul Cultivator became enraged and decided to intervene personally.
A Life Soul Realm cultivator from the Immortal Cloud Sect moved to intercept, but was blocked by a Supreme Elder from the Joyful Union Sect.
A Life Soul Cultivator from the Beast Taming Sect appeared, intending to help the Immortal Cloud Sect fend off the powerful enemy, but they were tied up by an expert from Nebula Pavilion and unable to lend a hand.
The final battle had arrived ahead of schedule.
With no one left to stop him, the Ghost King Sect’s Life Soul Cultivator descended upon the marketplace, intending to slaughter its inhabitants to vent his rage and avenge his grandson.
Dream Spirit transformed into a thousand-foot-tall Giant Ape and battled the Ghost King Sect Life Soul Cultivator outside the marketplace for dozens of rounds. In the end, he bound the cultivator with the Immortal Binding Rope and obliterated him with a single punch.
