Free Web NovelChapter 627: Chapter 414: I, Zhong Heng, Attain Divinity Transformation Today_2
Zhong Heng took a step, spanning over ten thousand miles.
The aura around him also began to change, the aura that had been retracted after Returning to the Essence was now released once more.
However, this aura started to gradually diminish.
With each step spanning ten thousand miles, Zhong Heng’s cultivation also began to decrease.
Zhong Heng’s captivating appearance became ordinary, and his clothes lost their luster, turning into common garments.
Zhong Heng disappeared from the Cultivation Realm.
The story of the Wanlang Mountains continued.
Currently, the Wanlang Mountains were in a phase of rapid development.
The exploitation of the Secret Realm persisted.
The cultivators became increasingly enthusiastic about exploiting the Secret Realm.
Ever since the last Spiritless Land in the entire Wanlang Mountains vanished two hundred years ago.
Integrating the Secret Realm into the Wanlang Mountains would enhance the local concentration of Spiritual Qi and resources.
The benefits of this were even more evident compared to the elimination of the Spiritless Land.
In the past, the world was absorbed into the Wanlang Mountains only after quickly extracting all the minerals and Spirit Plants from the Secret Realm.
Now, however, there was an additional benefit.
In numerous places, some did not exploit lower-tier Secret Realm Worlds, opting instead to directly integrate them into Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm.
The abundant resources of Void Abyss Beasts took hundreds of years and still were not entirely consumed.
The cultivation resources in the entire Wanlang Mountains were quite ample.
For a time, it resembled the atmosphere of twenty thousand years ago.
Along with this, a number of young prodigies emerged.
With the cultivation power in various regions steadily rising, the cultivation techniques swiftly advanced; the current Cultivation Realms did not require much assistance from the Dao Guide Team.
Under the guidance of the ambitious, young prodigies began to challenge the authority of the Dao Guide Team.
Especially with the disappearance of Zhong Heng, the first person of the Wanlang Mountains, from the Dao Guide Team for four hundred years.
Four hundred years was enough time for people to forget many things.
Finally, facing countless challenges, a figure emerged from the Celestial Palace in the Clouds.
"Zhong Heng?"
"I see your cultivation is only at Mid-Stage Nascent Soul, did you suffer a backlash from a failed breakthrough?"
"I have long heard of Elder Zhong’s great reputation, I request Elder Zhong to grant me your teaching."
Among these people were young prodigies who had reached Nascent Soul within four hundred years, as well as late-blooming geniuses who succeeded through steady accumulation.
They all watched the figure emerging from the Celestial Palace in the Clouds, their eyes fervent.
The battle intent in their eyes surpassed the color of reverence.
Zhong Heng had not appeared for four hundred years.
Many speculated that something had happened to Zhong Heng.
They were all itching for action.
Whether it was to gain the title of the first person of the Wanlang Mountains, or, even if it was just to be on par with Zhong Heng.
Or to gain benefits from the Dao Guide Team, forcing them to retreat.
It was all quite advantageous, a win-win in terms of both fame and fortune.
Of course, in the shadows, numerous eyes watched the figure in front of the Celestial Palace in the Clouds.
Many young prodigies had grown up.
Those old immortals were only getting stronger.
Now, within the Wanlang Mountains, there were over twenty cultivators at Late-Stage Nascent Soul.
They understood the limits of Nascent Soul, starting to question the prestige of that legendary figure.
Yet they could not forget the silhouette who once commanded the peacock in saving the world; these challengers of Zhong Heng were nothing more than the enthusiastic youths sent to test the waters.
"Zhong Heng!" Kong Ling wanted to step forward but was stopped by Lin Wui.
"Brother has his own plans."
Lin Wui looked at Zhong Heng’s waist.
A trace of doubt flashed through her eyes.
Others might be unaware, but Lin Wui was Zhong Heng’s closest kin.
She knew Zhong Heng had two treasures always hanging from his waist as pendants.
Now they were nowhere to be seen.
Lin Wui did not think much of it.
"But why is Brother’s cultivation only at Mid-Stage Nascent Soul..." Lin Wui murmured.
Zhong Heng looked at everyone, with hands behind his back.
"Zhong Heng, dare you duel with me?"
"It’s long been said that Master Zhong’s array cultivation reaches the sky, why not become the president of the Array Association instead of using the Dao Guide Team to compete for resources with us?"
"Zhong Heng, you have already suffered a backlash, your cultivation has regressed, and the possibility of breaking through to Divinity Transformation no longer exists."
"It’s better for you to abdicate and give way to the capable, the resources held by the Dao Guide Team are excessive."
A dozen people surrounded Zhong Heng.
Zhong Heng’s eyes lowered slightly.
"Noisy." He uttered softly.
A silence fell around them.
There were no divine techniques cast, yet those two words seemed to magically silence everyone as if his words became law.
"To suppress you all, one hand is enough."
Zhong Heng stretched out a single hand.
Behind him, it was as if two Five Elements Grinding Discs were rotating.
With one hand pressing down, in the next second, it was as if a mighty Five Elements Hand descended from the heavens.
Within the Five Elements, none can escape this great hand.
"Boom————"
The dozen Nascent Soul cultivators challenging Zhong Heng were pinned firmly to the ground.
The Five Elements Hand transformed into the Five Elements Mountain, suppressing them.
The entire scene was silent.
"Nothing more than this." Zhong Heng’s face was expressionless.
The cultivation technique Zhong Heng practiced had evolved from the Five Elements Technique to the "Taihe Five Elements Profound Gang Secret Technique."
This was an authentic Immortal Scripture, emphasizing solidity.
Present here was naturally Zhong Heng’s incarnation.
But even Zhong Heng’s incarnation, his True Essence was as profound as Nascent Soul Perfection.
Should there be any immortal cultivation evil technique like the Star Absorption Technique or North Nether Divine Skill, let alone stirring his True Essence, any external True Essence would be ground to dust by the Inner World Five Elements Cycle.
Zhong Heng’s action intimidated many.
And it allowed people to see through his depths.
"Huh, nothing more."
"Since he hasn’t broken through to Divinity Transformation, there’s no difference to me."
"Below Divinity Transformation, all are ants."
An elder in the shadows said disdainfully.
"Senior, Zhong Heng is a disciple of the Immortal Sect..." a cultivator beside him discreetly reminded.
"Being so, I will naturally save some face."
Suddenly, the color of the world changed.
In an instant, the power of the entire world seemed to concentrate on one person.
The figure of an elder appeared instantaneously in midair.
He wore a deep blue cloak.
Draped in a white robe, it fluttered, and along the edges, ethereal white feathers flickered.
With a wave of the cloak.
In an instant, the sky seemed to turn into his cloak.
The world and everything in it seemed to become things in his palm.
When this person appeared, even the Nascent Soul cultivators with the highest cultivation in the Wanlang Mountains lost all fighting spirit.
Divinity Transformation Cultivator!
The Wanlang Mountains were originally an inconspicuous place among the many regions of the Central State.
Divinity Transformation cultivators are exceedingly rare, naturally having no interest in it.
However, with years of development, the Wanlang Mountains have evidently become a treasured land.
And this treasured land was still without a master.
To a Divinity Transformation cultivator, a place without a Divinity Transformation cultivator is naturally unclaimed.
Though the Wanlang Mountains may be small, they were sufficient for him, a relatively young Divinity Transformation cultivator.
"Zhong Heng, is it?"
"I, White Bird, wish to become the master of the Wanlang Mountains, do you have any objections?"
White Bird’s expression was calm.
Being able to speak to Zhong Heng in this way, he was already giving considerable face to the Immortal Sect behind him.
A Divinity Transformation cultivator, even an Immortal Sect cannot easily slay.
Moreover, White Bird was not without background.
He had waited long, precisely because he heard Zhong Heng was a rare celestial pride.
He had been in seclusion for over four hundred years, perhaps he had broken through.
But now? It was clear Zhong Heng failed in his breakthrough, hence he needed not be too polite.
Zhong Heng seemed imperceptible to the pressure.
The corners of his mouth curled slightly.
"Chuckle"
Zhong Heng actually let out a chuckle.
White Bird’s expression turned darker.
The sky, akin to his cloak, began to close in slowly.
Vast pressure enveloped the world.
Earth cracked, mountains shook.
The wrath of a Divinity Transformation is terrifying to such an extent.
However, in the next second, the aura of the Divinity Transformation was punctured like a balloon.
A beam of light shot up into the sky.
The splendor of the sky flickered brilliantly.
"A breakthrough phenomenon!?"
"Did someone break through to Divinity Transformation?"
White Bird Daoist’s face darkened slightly.
Yet he did not act rashly.
When a fellow Daoist breaks through, without grievance or enmity, why obstruct, obstruction would be a mortal enmity.
One less enemy is one more path.
Yet a newly promoted Divinity Transformation also couldn’t fight him for territory.
And in the sky appeared a silhouette, as Spiritual Qi of the entire world poured into him.
"I, Zhong Heng, today validate my Dao in Divinity Transformation."
