Once again, entering that tiless state, Sun Wukong and his two companions cultivated furiously, not wasting a single mont. The presence of the Netherworld Fortuity Fruit ant that they were essentially at a dead end.
If they could not successfully ascend to the Nine Patterns Supre and thereby consu the Creation Fruit, by the ti everyone left the Supre Pool, even with the World Suppressing Stele’s suppression, the aura of the Creation Fruit would leak out, and the consequences could well be imagined.
Thus, with six months remaining, failing to ascend to the Nine Patterns Supre ant death. However, neither Sun Wukong, Xi Zhao, nor the Fla God chose to directly break through to Nine Patterns. Instead, they followed the original plan, which was to first replace the Laws they had comprehended at Seven and Eight Patterns. Enjoy exclusive chapters from empire
Only after completely replacing both Dao Patterns with Top Level Laws would they attempt to break through to Nine Patterns.
This approach was undoubtedly very risky, but the benefits were also enormous. If they could not complete everything within six months, they would face destruction. But if they succeeded, the three would beco three new Nine Patterns Supres in the Netherworld, capable of fully substituting all Laws.
The benefits of such an increase in strength and the subsequent integration of Nine Paths of Laws were imasurable.
Especially since Sun Wukong also possessed the World Suppressing Stele, it was like giving him a key to open the door to the peak of strength. Whether he could reach that door, however, likely depended on his own Creation.
Despite the high risks, all three were extrely confident in themselves.
A month and a half later, all three had successfully replaced the Seventh Law, substituting the High Level Laws with Top Level Laws. Then, over the following two months, they successfully replaced the Eighth Law.
By then, the three had thoroughly achieved their goal for entering the Supre Pool. Although Sun Wukong was sowhat regretful for not being able to complete the replacent of the First Law, their strength had already greatly increased.
Compared with before, the difference felt like heaven and earth, and Sun Wukong also felt extrely fortunate and relieved. Previously, he and Xi Zhao, relying on the World Suppressing Stele, had no idea how many Seven, Eight, and Nine Patterns Supres they had slain.
Looking back, it was clearly due to the World Suppressing Stele’s might, as on his own, even if he could kill across levels, it would not be possible to massacre unilaterally.
Feeling the overwhelming Soul Power that seed to overflow with every move and the Law Power that could be manipulated with a snap of the fingers, all three showed satisfied smiles.
Yet this smiling didn’t last long. After replacing the Eight Patterns Laws, no matter how much they cultivated or absorbed Energy, their Cultivation made no progress, nor could they feel the sensation of an imminent breakthrough.
Particularly for Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao, they could distinctly sense that their Soul Power and Laws seed to have reached a saturation point, unable to refine or even retain the absorbed energy for long.
It was as if they had beco cups filled to the brim with water, unable to hold even a single drop more. Yet this water could not evolve the cups into large jars to hold more.
The Fla God, although slightly better off, wasn’t much stronger and could only absorb a little bit of energy. Thus, for seven continuous days, the three were at a loss, even Xi Zhao was out of ideas. When he had ascended to Nine Patterns Supre in his past life, he had not encountered any bottlenecks and had naturally ascended. Now faced with this situation, he too was at a loss.
Just as the three were determined to directly consu the Netherworld Fortuity Fruit and use the imnse Power of Creation to break through the bottleneck of Nine Patterns Supre, Caoi returned.
This was her first return since the last ti she left, still alone, without the little fox. As soon as the little fox ca in, it saw the three each with a look of tragic determination, sitting in the earthy yellow light cast down by the World Suppressing Stele, reaching for the three Creation Fruits.
"What are you three doing? There are no signs of a breakthrough. What do you need the Creation Fruits for?" Seeing this, Caoi directly asked with a stern voice.
Hearing Caoi’s interrogation, the three withdrew their hands, looked at each other awkwardly, and after a mont, Xi Zhao spoke up, "It’s not that we want to eat them early, but it’s been seven days with no improvent in our strength, and we don’t feel any sign of a breakthrough. So, we planned to use the Creation Fruits to force open the barrier to Nine Patterns Supre.
Otherwise, we’re afraid that this will lead to nothing but death."
After Xi Zhao finished, Caoi looked clearly surprised. She gave Xi Zhao a look as if he were an idiot and then turned to Sun Wukong and the Fla God, asking, "Do you two think the sa?"
Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao quickly nodded, indicating they were not acting out of greed.
Seeing that both Sun Wukong nodded too, Caoi imdiately covered her face with one hand and said, "I really don’t want to say I know you guys. Have you never encountered a bottleneck in your cultivation? Don’t you know why this is happening now?"
The three looked at each other and shook their heads simultaneously. And the innocence in their eyes was as clear as day.
"I just can’t take it anymore; you three are simply freaks. Here, take it, chew it directly with your mouth and swallow it. Sigh!" Having said that, Caoi took out three green grasses from her bosom and handed them to Sun Wukong and his companions.
Seeing their curious gazes, Caoi explained impatiently, "This is called Alchemical Grass, and its only function is to resolve the dicinal properties of the elixirs accumulated in your body and the blockage of Spiritual Energy caused by consuming certain Heaven and Earth Treasures. I’m really defeated by your ignorance; you don’t even know this basic knowledge."
The three of them looked ashad and quickly chewed up the grass and swallowed it.
"Although I don’t know what you two have eaten, half of the dicinal power of the two fruits that Fla God previously consud has at most been refined, with the rest piling up inside him. That’s why you feel a surfeit of energy within but are unable to advance. By the way, I’m really curious what you two have taken, as the accumulated energy inside you is a bit too terrifying," Caoi said.
Hearing Caoi’s explanation, Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao suddenly rembered their encounter with the little fox and the Saint Armor Turtle they t in the valley. Just before dying, the turtle divided its Divine Bead into two and let the two of them each swallow one half.
They originally thought they had digested it long ago, but it turned out to have been accumulating inside them all along. It was understandable for Sun Wukong since he had never reached such a level of strength before. However, it was strange for Xi Zhao not to have noticed it, could be attributed to the supernatural quality of his original physical body.
In his lifeti, Xi Zhao held high power and authority and had consud countless Miraculous Elixirs and Heaven and Earth Treasures, but because of the quality of his physical body, no matter what elixir he swallowed, it would all be completely refined within three Chinese Hours.
There couldn’t possibly be any condition like dicinal blockage, and ever since he began his cultivation journey until he beca a top-level powerhouse, he never once encountered even the slightest bottleneck; his strength always increased naturally and smoothly.
Therefore, faced with a situation like today’s, Xi Zhao really didn’t know what to do.
Fla God was much the sa, because of the uniqueness of his body, he didn’t have anything like a cultivation bottleneck. Moreover, he didn’t usually consu any elixirs, gaining power through self-cultivation alone. As long as he kept Devouring various kinds of flas, that would suffice.
Even if so sources of Spiritual Energy were too powerful, they too would be absorbed entirely after being refined by his Life-bound fla.
Under Caoi’s supervision, the three of them successfully swallowed the Alchemical Grass. Soon, a trendous surge of energy rose from each of them almost simultaneously. Eventually, the energy emanating from the three intertwined and even created an energy storm.
However, since they were within the great tower, no matter how violent the energy storm was, it could not escape the tower at all, not even if a window were open. At the center of this energy storm were Sun Wukong and the other two.
At this mont, Caoi was also watching them with a tense expression, her large eyes staring intently at the trio as her divine essence reached out, carefully probing their cultivation situation. She was ready to hand them the Creation Fruit at the first sign of breakthrough.
Soon, the energy storm reached a peak and then, like a giant whale sucking water, was drawn into the bodies of the three. Suddenly, Xi Zhao opened his eyes, and at the sa ti, Caoi pointed and a Netherworld Fortuity Fruit had already flown into Xi Zhao’s mouth. He opened his mouth and with a strong inhalation, swallowed the fruit.
Almost at the sa mont Xi Zhao swallowed the Creation Fruit, Sun Wukong and Fla God also opened their eyes one after another. With a flick of Caoi’s fingers, the other two fruits were swallowed by Sun Wukong and Fla God, respectively.
In an instant, the entire room beca deathly quiet, so silent you could hear a pin drop. And the energy storm that had just swept through cald down, completely quiet, without a sound.
Xi Zhao, Sun Wukong, and Fla God also closed their eyes once again.
(How about a recomndation, a favorite? Don’t let the results look too shabby.)
