“Peak of Early Heaven Saint, succeeded.”
Qin Chen stood up, the power of the Spatial Law surrounding him like chains, encircling heaven and earth.
In his eyes, the stars of the universe flickered, emitting an astonishing aura.
With every gesture, an ancient aura spread out, making him appear like a primordial demon god.
An unprecedented surge of power flowed within Qin Chen’s body.
Although there was only a slight difference between the Early Heaven Saint and the Peak of Early Heaven Saint, the improvement in strength was remarkable. If he encountered Elder Yunshi again, Qin Chen would be able to handle it more easily.
“I originally thought that to break through to the Peak of Early Heaven Saint, I needed to obtain the Saint Vein from the Wangu Building. I didn’t expect to break through so quickly.”
Qin Chen shook his head but didn’t pay it much mind. The progression from Early Heaven Saint to Peak of Early Heaven Saint didn’t require much effort; continuously absorbing the Saint Veins was sufficient.
The key was how to break through to the Mid Heaven Saint, which couldn’t be achieved just by absorbing one or two mid-grade ancient Saint Veins.
“To break through to Mid Heaven Saint, I must first raise the Spatial Law chains in my body. Currently, I have only over thirty thousand Law chains, which is still too few; far from the limit of Peak Early Heaven Saint.”
Even though over one hundred thousand Laws had condensed into more than thirty thousand, Qin Chen’s power had not diminished but increased, and his physical strength had become even more robust.
Qin Chen could almost feel that with a casual shake, he could turn the entire cave into ashes, sweeping away thousands of troops.
“Once I elevate the Spatial Law in my body to over one hundred thousand chains, I can attempt to challenge Mid Heaven Saint. But I don’t know how many Saint Veins I will need to absorb and how many Laws I will need to condense to achieve this.”
All the Saint Veins and power he had previously condensed into over thirty thousand; returning to over one hundred thousand was no small feat.
“If I rely solely on my slow cultivation and absorb the Saint Qi from the Heavenly Realm, it might take thousands of years to break through. But if I had a peak-grade Saint Vein to absorb without restraint, this process could be reduced tenfold or even a hundredfold. The most important thing is still resources.”
Qin Chen now had a deep understanding of the importance of resources, which was also the reason why many ordinary martial artists in the Heavenly Realm ultimately couldn’t match the achievements of disciples from major powers.
Ordinary martial artists required thousands of years to cultivate with the same cultivation level, while a disciple from a powerful family background could save tenfold or even a hundredfold of time. How could that be compared?
“However, in Tian Gong, there are plenty of resources, and I can obtain them by continuously completing tasks and hunting down strong opponents, along with the development of the Chen Ti Pavilion.”
Qin Chen calculated, thinking that both avenues must progress simultaneously; his current demand for Saint Qi from the heavens was dozens of times that of an ordinary Heaven Saint.
“Let’s first go check out the Treasure Sanctuary.”
A thought flashed through Qin Chen's mind, and undoubtedly, the Treasure Sanctuary was the most attractive aspect of Tian Gong to him at the moment.
Moments later, Qin Chen arrived at the entrance of the Treasure Sanctuary.
The Treasure Sanctuary was the core of Tian Gong, containing countless treasures and serving as the largest library in Tian Gong, storing innumerable texts. The guards were also extremely strict, with a massive stone door at the entrance, inscribed with a gigantic character for “Treasure,” ancient and powerful, containing boundless energy. Just one glance made one feel as if they were witnessing the infinite vastness of the heavenly way.
