Chapter 449: Chapter 449: Breakthrough, Slaying Two Corpses Quasi-Saint (Third Update!)
From slaying the Good Corpse and reaching the One-Corpse Quasi-Saint to slaying the Evil Corpse and reaching the Two Corpses Quasi-Saint, it took only a short ten years, and half of that ti he was in a deep sleep due to severe injuries. Such a pace of rapid advancent in cultivation was simply horrifying when spoken of!
However, for Sun Wukong, it was not at all surprising; one could even say he had grown accustod to the swift progress of his cultivation.
The phantom form of the Evil Corpse continued to coalesce, starting from the top of the head, slowly struggling to manifest. The Innate Supre Treasure, the Chaos Divine Pearl, which had rged into a low-grade version, flew above Sun Wukong’s head. A barrier emanated from it, forming a semi-circular shield that descended and enveloped his entire figure, providing him with solid protection.
This miraculous scene was what the Great Elder Bai Wushuang saw upon entering the cave.
“Slaying Two Corpses? The Great Saint is actually undergoing the breakthrough of Slaying Two Corpses in such a place; no wonder it has incited such a violent upheaval from that Blood Demon!”
The mont Great Elder Bai Wushuang saw the shadow of the Good Corpse and the phantom of the Evil Corpse manifesting above Sun Wukong’s head, he was taken aback with alarm. Although he had reached the Half-Step Saint Realm, he had only managed to slay the Good Corpse. Then he broke through to the Half-Step Saint Realm with the rits accumulated by the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe, but Sun Wukong was already slaying the Evil Corpse!
...
Slaying the Three Corpses to rge with the Dao and Beco a Saint is, aside from Proving the Tao through Strength, the strongest thod of becoming a Saint. However, among countless individuals, only Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor has truly accomplished this because, with each Corpse slain, the amount of rit needed at the mont of becoming a Saint doubles. Not everyone has the capacity to amass such an enormous amount of rit!
Furthermore, Slaying Three Corpses demands high talents and opportunities. If one fails in slaying the corpses, at the least, cultivation greatly diminishes with severe injury, and at worst, one’s soul disperses, never to transcend death. It’s safe to say the difficulty and risk of Slaying Three Corpses to beco a Saint far surpass that of becoming a Saint directly through rit.
It is for this reason that many choose a less demanding path, proving the Tao and becoming a Saint through rit after slaying one or two Corpses, like the Three Purities, Amitabha, the Puti Patriarch, or even the later Tathagata Buddha.
Great Elder Bai Wushuang had also entertained the thought of Slaying Three Corpses to rge with the Dao, but it was just a fleeting idea. Let alone whether he had the qualification and chance, even if he were lucky enough to successfully slay all Three Corpses, would he have enough rit to rge with the Dao and beco a Saint? With the current power of the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe, gathering such an abundance of rit was no more than a pipe dream.
Seeing that Sun Wukong had actually managed to slay the Evil Corpse, Great Elder Bai Wushuang felt not only shocked but also a deep admiration. After all, he did not possess the audacity of Sun Wukong. If there was not enough rit gathered later on, proving the Tao and becoming a Saint would be as epheral as flowers in a mirror or the moon reflected on the water!
“Eh? Is that the Treasure Bead that the Great Saint took from the Treasure Vault?”
Bai Wushuang’s gaze shifted to the Chaos Divine Pearl above Sun Wukong’s head, and his eyes suddenly widened like saucers. “Such powerful fluctuations of strength! This bead is at least of the Superior Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure level! No, wait, it seems a bit different from the bead back then. What exactly is this treasure?”
At that mont, Bai Wushuang felt an intense regret. Their Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe had actually left such a precious item in the Treasure Vault unattended, mistaking it for a common object, and in the end, it conveniently fell into Sun Wukong’s hands for nothing!
Looking at the bead now, it had been completely refined by Sun Wukong, and moreover, refined through the Blood Refinent thod; even if they wanted to regret it and ask for it back, it would not be possible!
The formation and prohibitions within the cave had almost completely been damaged under the shockwaves generated by the Blood Demon’s assault on the Sea of Blood Barrier; however, the intense shockwave that struck the light shield laid out by the Chaos Divine Pearl didn’t even manage to ripple, disappearing without a trace. Bai Wushuang was initially worried that the severe power fluctuations would interrupt Sun Wukong’s breakthrough, but after watching for a while, he was completely reassured.
With the protection of the Chaos Divine Pearl, his previous worries were entirely unnecessary!
Feeling the power fluctuations surging within Star Moon Lake, Bai Wushuang couldn’t help but reveal a bitter smile, “Great Saint, oh Great Saint, of all places to choose for your breakthrough, why did you pick here?”
Bai Wushuang could now be certain that the Blood Demon’s rampage was due to being stimulated by Sun Wukong’s presence—an One-Corpse Quasi-Saint breaking through to the Slaying Two Corpses Quasi-Saint realm nearby was bound to be sensed by the Blood Demon!
It was common knowledge that one needed to be extrely focused during a cultivation breakthrough, as most of the spirit would be imrsed in one’s inner world, basically defenseless. Should anyone get close during such a mont, not only would the current cultivation breakthrough be threatened, but even their life could not be guaranteed.
The Blood Demon, sensing an One-Corpse Quasi-Saint breaking through nearby, was sure to go berserk, wanting to burst through the barrier and devour Sun Wukong—at least that’s what Bai Wushuang thought, unaware that the Blood Demon’s frenzy was not due to sensing Sun Wukong’s breakthrough but was completely startled by the power fluctuations released by the Chaos Divine Pearl!
“Ah, I was originally planning to deal with that Blood Demon after the Emperor subjugated the Celestial Fox Staff, but looking at this situation, it seems my old bones need to step up first!”
Bai Wushuang shook his head with a bitter smile, turned around, and swam toward the bottom of the lake.
As for Bai Wushuang’s arrival, Sun Wukong didn’t sense it in the slightest, as all his mind and spirit were wholly imrsed in the breakthrough of his cultivation. Initially, he had only intended to rge the Chaos Divine Pearls; he hadn’t expected that after the fusion of the three Chaos Divine Pearls into a Low-Grade Innate Supre Treasure, it would actually feed back a vast amount of Primordial of the Great Dao power. Moreover, due to the formation of an Innate Supre Treasure, the Heavenly Dao bestowed an enormous amount of rit Force, which unexpectedly promoted his cultivation to the very limit of the One-Corpse Quasi-Saint realm, reaching the edge of breakthrough.
Since he had the opportunity for a breakthrough, it would be quite a waste not to take it. Sun Wukong imdiately concentrated all his mind and spirit on the cultivation breakthrough, running at full strength the Eight-Nine Profound Skill, and launched an assault toward the Slaying Two Corpses Quasi-Saint realm.
The evil thoughts converged from all over his body towards the Baihui acupoint at the top of his head, bit by bit forming the Evil Corpse, which began to separate from his body. The process was slow but uninterrupted; at this rate, in half a day, Sun Wukong would be able to fully condense and expel the Evil Corpse, breaking through to the Slaying Two Corpses Quasi-Saint realm!
At the bottom of Star Moon Lake, outside the Blood Pool Barrier.
Thump, thump, thump!
Loud collision noises ca from the Blood Pool Barrier. Purple lightning and blazing fire surged on the barrier, bombarding the Blood Demon inside, and continuous puffs of black smoke erged from its vague and unclear form. Normally, these attacks could make the Blood Demon wail in anguish, but today it was as if infused with an intense force, showing no reaction at all, attacking the barrier even more crazily.
