I will become the Demon Immortal known to the whole world
Chapter 182 Breakthrough to True Realization, Nine-layered Altar!

Chapter 182: Chapter 182 Breakthrough to True Realization, Nine-layered Altar!

Time flowed by like water, and another twenty days had passed.

Liang Hui’s training in the Martial Path had reached a critical point.

(Blood Exchange 84.27%)

He was only a few steps away from completing the Blood Exchange.

Unfortunately, the Vitality Treasure Medicine, pills, and the treasured medicines collected again by the sect were almost exhausted.

He had enough resources left for only five more days of cultivation.

At this moment, even Liang Hui felt somewhat overwhelmed by the situation.

As he understood from books and Jade Slips, the most difficult and dangerous aspect of the Blood Exchange was always safety.

The auxiliary treasured medicines needed for the Blood Exchange were only one or two stalks, not exceeding ten at most.

However, he was consuming them in piles and piles.

Now, these items which were meant to be auxiliary had become the biggest issue in his breakthrough.

Hu~

A breath of turbid air was exhaled, and the young man sitting cross-legged on the ground also ended his chaotic thoughts.

’It’s time to go for the Daoist breakthrough first.’

Liang Hui murmured softly.

He made a decision in his heart.

He wasn’t worried about the completion of the Blood Exchange; at worst, it would only consume more time.

Now, to increase his strength by another step first.

His consciousness delved into his abdomen.

In an instant, it was as if he had entered another miniature world.

A blue ocean lay tranquil and endless, teeming with fish and beasts of various attributes, frolicking and brimming with spirituality.

Above the blue Inner Strength, the once vermilion-golden clouds had long since turned into a liquid, filled with sharpness and heat.

The Red Cloud Dao Sword was continuously swimming through the liquid, just like a fish.

Liang Hui quietly sensed the scene before him.

Unconsciously, he began to recall the description of the fifth realm of Daoist cultivation—True Realization.

With the aid of one’s Lifebound Tool, to seek a trace of truth in the elusive Dao.

Essentially, it was still about compressing mana to its limits, enhancing the power of the Lifebound Tool, and ultimately nurturing oneself to understand the Dao contained within the tool.

Ending the memories in his mind, he spoke to himself.

"Let’s begin."

Boom!

In an instant, the vermilion-golden liquid floating above began to boil and compress.

The liquid rapidly thickened at incredible speed, until it turned solid.

’Shape forming!’

He shouted inwardly.

The solid state mana began to change shape and distort, transforming in the direction he had long planned.

At the same time, the atmosphere for miles around the palace where Liang Hui was located began to tilt rapidly.

A huge vortex of energy was formed.

In the Beast Taming Sect, figures soared into the air, observing the palace at the center of the vortex.

"Everyone, go back down. An elder of the sect is breaking through, do not disturb," said a gaunt figure clad in yellow robes, standing around the palace, looking up at the figures in the sky.

"Yes, Sect Master," followed Sect Master Ji Lu’s words.

Although everyone was curious about which elder was making such a great commotion during the breakthrough, they still followed the order and returned to their residences.

Standing in front of the palace, Ji Lu was also filled with surprise, as the noise from the breakthrough was too great.

Nevertheless, remembering the message left by the venerable ancestor before his departure, he no longer had the urge to inquire further.

Inside the palace, Liang Hui, seated in meditation, felt his mana transforming into a vague shape within his body.

As time ticked by every second, the vague shape grew clearer and clearer.

Gradually, a nine-layered altar with four corners at its base floated in the air.

The altar glowed with a vermilion-golden hue, small and ancient, emanating both heat and sharpness.

At the same time, runes began appearing out of nowhere, etching onto the altar.

As the runes were imprinted, the altar gained an elder and more mystical air.

These runes were the ones Liang Hui had selected from a large number of True Realization-level Taoist Scriptures, believed to be the most suitable for himself.

Boasting the functions of both sacrifice and warm nurturing.

Of course, the object of sacrifice and nurturing was none other than the Red Cloud Sword!

With a mere thought, the Daoist sword that had been standing silently to one side arrived atop the nine-layered altar.

In that instant, a sense of completion surged in Liang Hui’s heart.

His closed eyes slowly opened.

He felt a powerful strength emanating from within his body.

With an outstretched hand, the nine-layered altar shimmered with a reddish-gold hue, hovering above his palm as if it were a genuine magic artifact.

Liang Hui’s other hand reached out, holding a medicinal herb which he placed beneath the altar.

In a flash, a reddish-gold mist enveloped it.

After several breaths, the medicinal herb had already turned to powder, drifting down to the ground.

And with the Red Cloud Sword standing atop the altar, Liang Hui could feel its sharpness and heat intensified by a sliver.

This sliver was extremely subtle; had the Red Cloud Sword not been the young man’s lifebound tool, he would have absolutely not felt it.

"My idea is correct, with this, I can hasten the cultivation in the True Realization realm."

With a gentle wave of his hand, Liang Hui erased the traces of cultivation on the ground and simultaneously retracted the altar.

Only then did he look towards the outer parts of the palace.

He dispelled the red film that had been enveloping the interior of the room.

"Sect Master, please come in."

The creak of the palace door being opened, and a middle-aged man clad in yellow robes entered.

Before Ji Lu could speak, the young man’s words had already arrived.

"Sect Master, thank you for protecting me just now."

"It’s nothing, this is what I should do. However, the Vitality Treasure Medicine and exotic beast flesh, the sect cannot gather more of these in the short term."

Ji Lu’s expression was bitter.

Tuzhou had been in continuous chaos, not only had the Beast Taming Sect’s foundation been damaged, but other sects were also barely surviving.

"I’m aware, what the Sect Master previously provided is already sufficient."

Liang Hui extended his hand, gently waving it, and the great doors of the palace closed once again.

"I heard the sect migrated here from Qingzhou."

"Qingzhou?"

Ji Lu’s face showed a trace of reminiscence.

After a moment, he muttered softly.

"The sect, two hundred years ago, did indeed reside in Qingzhou and was indeed the sole overlord of Qingzhou."

"Among the nine provinces of the Zhou Nation, Qingzhou was the most suitable for our Beast Taming Sect."

"Rich in resources, with an abundance of exotic beasts, and lying close to the East Sea, allowing us to hunt sea beasts at any time and increase the sect’s foundation."

"Unfortunately, the later generations were unfilial, deserted their ancestral home, and were driven here."

The young man slowly stood up, facing Ji Lu earnestly.

"Sect Master, our sect once dominated Qingzhou, and even though we retreated in distress, we should have left behind many contingencies, such as... "

"A designated Mystic Altar for spatial travel!"

"The Mystic Altar for travel to Qingzhou does indeed exist within our sect, a secret known only to successive Sect Masters."

Ji Lu’s voice was hesitant, but he still disclosed it without reservation.

Such altars were too precious; even the ancestors of the Beast Taming Sect did not wish to use them when they launched a death strike at the Qingheng Sect.

"I need one."

"Okay."

Before he had finished speaking, a simple, ancient-looking Mystic Altar floated in front of Liang Hui.

The young man caught it with ease, without revealing its intended use.

Ji Lu, in tacit agreement, did not ask.

Liang Hui took a step forward, coming to the side of the Sect Master.

"I also need the sect’s method of refining the impurities from the blood and flesh of exotic beasts."

He was preparing to make a trip to the East Sea, firstly, to hunt down large sea beasts, and consume their qi-blood to ensure that his blood exchange did not halt.

Secondly, he also wanted to understand the current situation in the East Sea. Ever since the last time the Yang Sect and the True Martial Hall had attacked, killing a Pig Demon, no other information had come through.

Moreover, with his disguise technique, not even the Demon Spirit Sect Master had detected him.

Now, having made another breakthrough, he was even closer to concealing his presence.
