4 years later.
Eternal Peak.
Tian Yongheng finally broke through to the Fifth Stage of Tribulation Transcendence Realm!
Slowly opening his eyes, he felt the knowledge of the Heavenly Questions surge around in his mind as the Immortal Spirit Stone had once again become smaller than before.
He quickly summoned the status panel to check out his current stats.
[Name: Tian Yongheng]
[Race: Mortal(Ascended Divinity Human)]
[Lifespan: 573/149,510]
[Cultivation: Fifth Stage of Tribulation Transcendence Realm.]
[Constitution: Five-Elemental Divine Spiritual Physique.]
[Bloodline: Jade Pure Bloodline (Descendant of the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning).]
[Innate Talent(s): Sword Heart, Primordial Meridians and Primordial Bones.]
This is amazing!
The lifespan increase this time is around the same as it was in total when I first entered the Void Refinement Realm!
A near 15,000 year lifespan increase by breaking through a single minor realm!
A mortal can possibly live for over 150 times in 15,000 years!
He couldn’t help but be pleased with the continous increase in his lifespan which was getting greater and greater with each minor breakthrough.
I wonder how much my lifespan would be after breaking through to the Immortal Ascension Realm?
At least over 300,000 years, right?
As he thought of this, he opened the system mails and started to check them to understand what was happening in the outside world.
He checked the system mails almost every 4 5 years now, it was because he knew that the situation had become quite intense in the outside world.
It was specially so after he got to know about the Prodigy Convention which was being held right now.
Not only did he have to constantly be on guard and see if anything was wrong in the outside world, but he also had to become as strong as possible. Only with enough power in his hands could he stand a chance against the great forces of the outside world.
Soon, he began to check the system mails.

Kong Junyu?
That fellow is back in the State of Feng? Or was he attacked by cultivators in another State?
Tian Yongheng thought carefully about this.
Kong Junyu wasn’t just a demonic cultivator, he was also a Chosen One who had become an enemy of his.
Having a normal person as an enemy already wasn’t good enough for him, let alone having a Chosen One with Connate Providence that rivaled the heavens themselves as an enemy.
It simply couldn’t be tolerated!
Enemies had to die, no matter who they were or what their background was!
Kong Junyu’s hatred towards Tian Yongheng hadn’t ever decreased, which meant there was a high chance he will try to get revenge on him sometime in the future.
I’ll have to become an Immortal as fast as possible. Only then might I be powerful enough to completely ignore the Connate Providence of a Chosen One and kill him.
Thinking about this, Tian Yongheng once again closed his eyes and prepared to enter seclusion again.
He won’t stop cultivating until he was absolutely sure that nothing could harm him, at least in the Mortal World.
Even though he was still a bit far from that goal, he was sure he could achieve it in a matter of a couple more hundred years.
Though right now, the main goal was to reach the Sixth Stage of Tribulation Transcendence Realm.
...
Another 3 years passed by in an instant.
State of Feng, Jingchen Region.
At the border of Jingchen Region, the sky darkened and the land was filled with corpses, the air permeating with a strong smell of blood.
Countless roars and shouts resounded the heavens as experts clashed, moving mountains and drying up rivers.
*Swoosh!*
Lu Qingfeng sped through the battlefield, any demonic cultivator or Demon turning to ashes as long as they were within a ten miles radius of Lu Qingfeng’s aura.
Of course, this only applied to those who were all either in the early to mid stages of Golden Core Realm and below the Golden Core Realm.
He had recently reached the Ninth Stage of Golden Core Realm while fighting against a demonic cultivator who also had just reached the Void Refinement Realm.
Initially at a disadvantage, he quickly turned the situation around upon breaking through to the Ninth Stage of Golden Core Realm and was able to fend off that demonic cultivator for a much longer time till help from other Void Refinement Realm experts of the righteous path arrived, earning him the title of the strongest Golden Core Realm of the battlefield.
As he advances through the battlefield, obliterating every single Demon or demonic cultivator on sight, he suddenly felt a terrifying pressure spreading out from the east and turned around hurriedly.
The extremely overbearing and demonic presence seemed to be seeping into the depths of his mind, trying to corrode his soul. Had it not been for his great Providence and innate divine protection of the True Yang Body, his Sea of Consciousness might have already started to collapse.
At least the Nascent Soul Realm!
Having almost immediately figured out the cultivation base of the existence who’s aura was leaking out, Lu Qingfeng’s gaze turned sharp and serious as he clenched his fist slightly before turning into a streak of golden light and rushing towards the source of the aura.
Along the way, he noticed how this aura was not just affecting the cultivators of the righteous path, but even the demonic path and the Demon Race cultivators were affected.
Lu Qingfeng couldn’t understand the motive of this person or what his origins were, but he was now sure that this being was at least in the Nascent Soul Realm even more so than before.
It was because even Void Refinement Realm experts were being affected by the demonic aura!
As he got closer and closer, Lu Qingfeng had already arrived at the forbidden grounds of the East Coast.
Demonic Qi pervaded the air as the dark clouds above churned with black lightning, as if it could fall down at any moment given.
His eyes roamed around the area, trying to find the source of the demonic aura while his Divine Sense spread out to every corner in a radius of hundreds of miles.
At this point, he suddenly saw a dark, huge silhouette rising from the Pristine Waters beyond the East Coast, over thousands of miles away from land.
However, the gigantic figure combined with the Divine Sense of Lu Qingfeng, he was able to see the silhouette.
He couldn’t guess how huge this monstrosity really was just from this view, but his intuition told him that it was far bigger than any creature he had ever seen, including that Vermilion Bird from years ago.
As he was thinking of this, the humongous silhouette started moving forward, each step it took causing huge waves to form on the Pristine Waters, and for some reason, the special formation at the surface of the Pristine Waters didn’t suck this silhouette in.
It was as if it completely negated all the effects of the formation for some reason.
Lu Qingfeng couldn’t help but feel slightly nervous for the first time in a long while.
He had always been the invincible Great General and Supreme Archer on the battlefield, and had almost never felt nervous since entering the cultivation world and becoming a Personal Disciple of Tian Yongheng.
This was probably one of the few times he was intimidated by just the sheer size and presence of a being in the cultivation world.
As the huge silhouette moved forward, the demonic aura slowly began to calm down, as if the source of the aura had lost control over it before for a moment and was now regaining control.
Just a few moments later, the demonic aura stopped affecting all the cultivators in the battlefield and they soon started to return to normal.
Just then, Lin Qiyuan, Mo Yuxin, Sun Hao and the others arrived besides Lu Qingfeng, all of them having grave expressions on their faces.
Even many Void Refinement Realm cultivators, including Mo Qingxuan, were present there. They had joined the battlefield quite some time ago.
"Brother Qingfeng, do you know what aura was that just now? It felt like it was corroding at my soul, but then it just disappeared, as if it was never there in the first place."
Lin Qiyuan asked in a tensed voice.
The others looked at Lu Qingfeng for an explanation as well.
Lu Qingfeng didn’t say anything and just stared in front of him, a serious expression on his face.
Before anyone could say anything else, the Void Refinement Realm cultivators noticed that something was wrong.
One of them spoke up in a slightly trembling voice, "Th-that is...!?"
Before he could finish speaking, a large wave swept over from the ocean towards them, revealing a gigantic figure nearly ten thousand feet tall, it’s piercing red gaze locking onto the cultivators below.
