Chapter 164: Chapter 135: Mid-Tier Level 4, Invitation Rejected, Du Bai on the Verge of a Breakthrough!_3

On this day, Lu Sheng sat cross-legged at the center of the Desolate Desert. Wisps of Deathly Silence Qi coiled around his skin, forming black patches that looked rather ugly and menacing.

However, in the next moment, accompanied by a flowing surge of Qi Blood within Lu Sheng’s body, those black patches instantly dissipated, restoring his skin to its normal appearance.

A faint sense of oppression also emanated from Lu Sheng’s body.

Following that, Lu Sheng opened his eyes, and the data panel automatically appeared.

"The progress in the Life and Death Technique has increased by fifteen, and the Immortal Technique, under the feedback of the Life and Death Technique, has also advanced by about ten points."

"As for cultivation... in half a year, I’ve only increased by five points. After entering the mid-stage of the fourth tier, the progress in cultivation has become slower and slower!"

Lu Sheng gently shook his head.

"Resources, still lacking resources. If combined with the Life and Death Fruit and the Life Essence Liquid, in this half year, I could have at least increased my cultivation to over forty."

"However, compared to my peers, my progress is already very fast."

As Lu Sheng spoke, he smiled slightly. The existence of the system panel allowed Lu Sheng to steadily improve, a feature that no genius could match.

After all, even top-notch geniuses would encounter long periods of stagnation, while he could steadily advance.

This also meant that Lu Sheng didn’t need to take any risks and could steadily cultivate, step by step, towards the pinnacle of martial arts.

"Not bad at all. Soon, this year’s guarding rewards will arrive!"

Lu Sheng stood up from the Desolate Desert, ready to return to the shelter.

Beep beep beep!

Lu Sheng’s communication bracelet emitted a sound. When he looked, he saw a message from Du Bai.

Looking at the message from Du Bai, Lu Sheng smiled slightly.

In the past six months, perhaps because he had informed Zhang Lei that he wouldn’t be leaving the Ancient Temple Star, Zhang Lei hadn’t contacted him again or sent any messages.

However, Du Bai had occasionally sent him messages, whether it was about completing his first intermediate task or killing a powerful enemy from a rival cosmic race, he’d share the news to celebrate.

Therefore, facing Du Bai’s message, Lu Sheng didn’t feel any exception.

Lu Sheng looked at the message on his bracelet, and after reading the content, a look of seriousness appeared on his face.

In the message, it read: "Hahaha, Junior Lu, I feel the opportunity for my breakthrough coming. Recently, I’ve completed several intermediate tasks and accumulated quite a few resources, just a bit more and I can gather everything I need for the breakthrough."

"I’m planning to take on another intermediate task. With these resources, I can break through to the fifth tier. By then, with my Giant Divine Soldier, even against a late-stage fifth-tier expert, I can put up a fight!"

The message carried Du Bai’s intense excitement.

But Lu Sheng couldn’t help but show a hint of worry between his brows.

"Senior Brother Du Bai... is he about to break through?"

Lu Sheng’s eyes fell, hiding his emotions.

"The breakthrough from the fourth to the fifth tier... isn’t that easy!"

Lu Sheng sighed lightly.

If the breakthrough from the third to the fourth tier could be considered a transformation, truly elevating one’s life level.

Then the breakthrough from the fourth to the fifth tier was more of a life evolution!

The name for fifth-tier Martial Artists is Immortals. Martial Artists at this stage only need to place a portion of their body tissue in a safe location, and even if their physical body is destroyed, they can still revive.

Extremely powerful.

But to enter this realm requires mention of one thing.

The Divine Soul!

Whether one is a cultivator, a Mechanical Transformer, or a Martial Artist, at the fifth tier, the Divine Soul is incredibly important.

Fifth-tier Cultivators are called Nascent Souls, where the Nascent Soul is essentially a manifestation of the cultivator’s Divine Soul. By making the Divine Soul independent, they can re-establish themselves as a Nascent Soul, allowing them to seize another body for rebirth even if killed.

Of course, this method comes with a tremendous cost.

Meanwhile, fifth-tier Mechanical Transformers are called Mechanical Priests. At this stage, they also undergo an Ascension Ceremony, uploading their Divine Soul’s power to the Ascension Terminal.

As for Martial Artists at the fifth-tier Immortal Realm, they differ from cultivators and Mechanical Transformers, whose Divine Souls and bodies are independent, whereas Martial Artists integrate their Divine Soul into themselves.

Body and Divine Soul as one, elevating their life force to the extreme, making them impervious to any vulnerabilities, effectively rendering them without weaknesses.

Because of this, fifth-tier Martial Artists place a portion of their body tissue in a safe place, such as the Life Tomb of the Life Factions, where their Divine Soul exists within the reserved tissues, enabling them to revive even if killed outside.

It can be said that it’s extremely difficult to kill a fifth-tier Transcendent.

And for this reason, becoming a fifth-tier Transcendent is incredibly challenging!
