The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 1320 Breakthrough

Chapter 1320: Chapter 1320 Breakthrough

"I will," Cundi replied with a smile, looking harmless as a person or an animal.

Qin Jun smiled back, but what he was thinking, Cundi couldn’t guess.

However, he could guess what Cundi was thinking.

As Cundi wasn’t two major realms higher in cultivation than Qin Jun, the latter was able to peer into his mental activities using the secret characters of formation paths.

"Why is this little guy fated to meet me? Manifesting Saint level cultivation, hmm, not bad. I’ll accompany him for a while and see," Cundi thought, which made Qin Jun’s smile deepen with meaning.

"Do you know where this is?"

Qin Jun asked curiously, no longer concerned about the lion-headed beast in the sky.

Now, dressed in his Wují Primordial robes and with Cundi’s assistance, why should he worry about a mere Half Holy beast?

"I’m not sure myself, probably somewhere from the beginning of Chaos. I’ve traveled a long way and haven’t encountered any intelligent beings," Cundi replied, shaking his head full of confusion.

The beginning of Chaos!

Qin Jun’s whole body shook, and he cursed in his heart.

Have I really arrived in ancient times?

He quickly became excited. If he could lay the groundwork from ancient times, wouldn’t the heavens of Great Qin be at his fingertips when he returned?

After cultivating here for countless years, would Xia Shenwu mean anything to him upon his return?

Qin Jun took a deep breath and said, "If that’s the case, let’s find a quiet place to cultivate!"

He was impatient to break through to the Holy Realm!

By then, even if Cundi were of two minds, he wouldn’t be afraid.

Cundi was startled by Qin Jun’s eagerness, then nodded and said, "Follow me!"

With a wave of his sleeve, they both disappeared on the spot.

Above the thunderclouds, the lion-headed beast continued to roar in pain. On closer inspection, beneath its mountainous body, several house-sized white eggs lay on the clouds without falling—a truly miraculous sight.

Soon, Qin Jun and Cundi arrived atop a small mountain scattered with dozens of cave entrances, the surface of the mountain bare of any grass, ominously foreboding.

Qin Jun surveyed the surroundings and nodded, "Let’s stay here."

Standing on the slope, he looked around. Dusty winds filled the sky, and he could vaguely see the enormous figure of the lion-headed beast struggling in the clouds.

Cundi asked, "How long do you plan to cultivate?"

Qin Jun pondered and replied, "Let’s break through to the Holy Realm first!"

The Holy Realm?

Cundi sneered to himself, "Does this little tyke think reaching the Holy Realm is that easy?"

Doubting me?

Qin Jun silently scorned in his heart, thinking, "Just wait till I slap your face!"

He didn’t start cultivating right away but instead waited for Royal Lord Dong and She-Bishi to arrive.

Cundi was puzzled but didn’t continue to press the matter and went to the mountaintop to sit cross-legged.

Qin Jun’s injuries were quickly healing, and he began to fully extend his Divine Consciousness.

What exactly does a world at the beginning of Chaos look like?

Qin Jun had read many ancient texts. It was said that after the beginning of Chaos, there was only a universe, immensely vast, until it eventually shattered, spawning numerous universes.

By that measure, it appeared he had traveled too far back.

As his Divine Consciousness expanded, he saw many fearsome and terrifying creatures: a one-eyed giant bird with a wingspan of a hundred miles, giant worms dominating the desert, and even three-legged wolf-like beasts prowling the wilderness, all grotesquely formed, hardly meeting his aesthetic standards.

Hmm, to put it simply, they were ugly!

His Divine Consciousness continued to spread, like a grand map unfolding in his mind, broadening his horizons.

The land he was on was vastly larger than the Immortal Realm or the Great World, with no civilization, only ferocious beasts devoid of sentience roaming freely.

He, in the Manifesting Saint realm, could extend his Divine Consciousness far and wide, yet here, he was unable to cover the entire land completely.

"Where exactly is this place..."

Qin Jun murmured to himself, and then asked in his mind, "System, when can I return?"

"Only after the host has ascended to a higher control over the Wheel of Fate can you travel through the endless time and space, back to the original point in time."

The system responded, the current point in time had already surpassed the system’s control, therefore it was powerless, and everything depended on Qin Jun’s own efforts.

Qin Jun sighed deeply, deciding to be at peace with the situation.

About an hour passed.

Royal Lord Dong and She-Bishi arrived one after another.

She-Bishi, like the other ancestral witches, was rough and wild, with disheveled hair, a burly physique, dressed in clothes made of animal skins, exuding a barbaric temperament.

Royal Lord Dong, on the other hand, was clad in a golden robe, wore a dragon coronet, his features handsome, exuding the leadership quality of the foremost male immortal with every movement.

After they arrived, Qin Jun went to the entrance of a cave and began cultivating.

The two God and Demons initially carried an air of arrogance but became well-behaved upon seeing Cundi, and they too followed in cultivating.

Upon arrival in this timespace, Qin Jun’s fame points abruptly came to a halt, but fortunately, he still had nearly five trillion fame points to squander.

With his substantial resources, he directly exchanged for sacred medicines for cultivation in the Mythology Marketplace.

In Chaos, there were no numbered years, and neither spring nor winter.

Thousands of years flew by in haste.

Boom!

The small mountain began to shake violently as Qin Jun finally broke through to the complete Manifesting Saint realm!

Previously, just listening to the Primordial Lord of Heaven preaching had brought him to the late stage of the Manifesting Saint realm and now, with the aid of the sacred medicines for cultivation, his progress had soared.

Although the spiritual energy here was denser than in later times, it was extremely domineering, difficult to channel through the extraordinary meridians and eight vessels, and hard to control. Ordinary beings dared not draw it into their bodies for too long.

Qin Jun practiced the Indestructible Holy Body; pain had long become commonplace to him.

"Has he broken through?"

Cundi, who sat atop the mountain, fluttered his eyelids. Just a few thousand years felt short to him, but for Qin Jun to have broken through to the complete Manifesting Saint realm had impressed him greatly.

For most beings, it was difficult to cross the threshold of the later stage of the Manifesting Saint realm in their lifetime, but for Qin Jun, it seemed relatively easy.

At the base of the mountain, Royal Lord Dong and She-Bishi exchanged glances, seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes.

Qin Jun’s cultivation had already been above theirs, and now he had made another breakthrough!

In contrast, despite frequent cultivation over the thousand years, they had made little progress and had not broken through even a minor realm.

Inside the cave, all was pitch black.

A small purple flame flickered, followed by a pair of eyes opening below it, with flames seemingly burning fiercely within.

It was Qin Jun.

"Phew—Manifesting Saint realm complete!"

Qin Jun exhaled deeply in the darkness; although still far from breaking through to the Holy Realm, advancing even one level was a triumph.

"System, if I were to pass on the Great Flame Path, how much could I break through?"

Qin Jun asked in his mind; over the thousands of years, he had consumed many sacred medicines for cultivation, just barely managing to break through one minor realm.

No wonder those prodigies took a painstaking hundred thousand years just to barely reach the Manifesting Saint realm.

"Depends on the host’s comprehension, but the advancement in cultivation will not be too substantial."

The system’s response left Qin Jun conflicted.

Opportunities for the inheritance of the Great Path were extremely rare. If he let the God or Demon inherit it, he could immediately create a Great Path Supreme, or even something stronger.

Qin Jun himself was also well-suited for the Great Flame Path. With the Fire God not by his side at the moment, he suddenly wanted to use it on himself.

Because cultivating was too grueling.

...

Last Chapter, She-Bishi was written as ’Tubi Shi’, this has been corrected. Just mentioning it—no impact on reading. This is the charm of Chinese characters, pfft.
