Chapter 142: Requirements for Promotion to True Martial Realm! The Jiao Saint's Secret Realm Opens!
Chengsheng Mountain, atop Chengdao Peak.
At this moment, it was dawn, and Han Laozu's mood was somewhat unsettled, as if he sensed that something big was about to happen.
After finishing refining treasures, Han Laozu came here alone, intending to enjoy the scenery and calm his mind while waiting.
Sunrise, hailed as the most magnificent spectacle in nature, its beauty is indescribable and endless.
One of the most spectacular sights in Chengsheng Mountain is the rising sun.
A ray of dawn breaks through the eternal night, and the eastern sky gradually changes from pitch black to fish belly white and red, until it becomes dazzling golden.
A rising sun bursts out from the horizon, and for a moment, the sky is filled with colorful rays, dyeing the sky red, giving people an infinite vitality and majestic momentum.
From Han Li's perspective, under the colorful rays, the mountains rise and fall, layer upon layer, like an ink painting of countless mountains and seas.
When Zhu Xi rises slowly, the morning light illuminates every inch of the magnificent mountains and rivers, and the beautiful scenery of Chengsheng Mountain is also fully revealed.
The sea of clouds is dyed red by the colorful rays, and waterfalls cascade down like silver dragons, reflecting the image of Zhu Xi in every pool, shining brightly against the light of the sky.
"The bright light slowly leaves the Cangxi, the mirror slowly arrives at the Haogong."
"I want to ride the wind and fly to the Jade Capital, looking far away at the boundless land of Fusang."
Han Li couldn't help but recite, and his originally restless mind was soothed by the colorful rays, making him appear calm and peaceful.
Standing on the top of the mountain, dressed in white, Han Laozu at this moment resembled an immortal with ethereal demeanor, giving people a feeling of "floating as if detached from the world, transcending into immortality."
"Hoo~"
Han Li took a long breath, as if a fairy sword pierced through the air, and was then shattered by a flick of the old ancestor's finger.
Withdrawing his gaze, Han Li turned to look in the direction of Leizhou. He had a premonition that the Dragon Maiden was about to take action, and a storm was about to strike.
In fact, he felt that the Dragon Maiden should have entered the secret realm and retrieved the Dragon Pearl more than five months ago, but she had been hesitating, as if she was wary of something.
The emergence of the secret realm was only a matter of time, and the Dragon Maiden would never wait for the secret realm to naturally appear. By then, her advantage would be greatly diminished.
"I wonder when I can be promoted to the True Martial Realm?" Han Li muttered to himself.
If he were to be promoted to the True Martial Realm, his combat power would at least reach the late stage of the True Martial Realm. At that time, he would have few opponents in the Profound Domain, and participating in the competition would give him a great advantage.
As for now, it's better to forget it. Han Li planned to continue to endure and observe for now.
His strongest combat power was at the fifth or sixth level of the True Martial Realm, but Han Li felt that it was not safe enough. Most of those True Martial Realm Martial Kings had lived for a long time, most likely thousands of years, and they definitely had many hidden cards.
Who could cultivate to the True Martial Realm without a few killer moves? Who didn't have secret techniques to unleash their full strength?
Han Li felt that his defense was too weak. The Indestructible Diamond Body Technique couldn't handle battles at this level.
With the improvement of his realm and the further perfection of the embryonic form of the All-Purpose Martial Dao, the defense of the Indestructible Diamond Body Technique had also been raised from the peak of the Myriad Manifestations Realm to the first level of the True Martial Realm.
The defense of the True Martial Realm's first level is considered weak within the True Martial Realm. It can easily be broken in a chaotic battle, resulting in serious injuries.
Of course, Han Laozu is very fast. If he travels, he can cross nearly 390,000 miles in an instant, approaching the speed of the sixth level of the True Martial Realm. It is difficult for others to attack him during a fight, but Han Laozu doesn't want to easily reveal his speed.
Moreover, the Nine Heavens Divine Movement technique is good for traveling, but its effectiveness is compromised in battle.
Opening the system panel, Han Li's various strengths are displayed clearly. His gaze moves to the bottom, where there is a line of text.
【Promotion Requirement: 600 years of cultivation】
"Ah~"
Han Laozu sighs. He has checked it more than once, and every time he does, he sighs. The required cultivation is just too much.
From breaking through the seventh level of the Myriad Manifestations Realm to reaching its peak, he has consumed 102 years of cultivation, leaving him with 68 years remaining, only one-tenth of the promotion requirement.
But Han Li has no choice. The system requires this much cultivation to help him advance to the True Martial Realm. Otherwise, he can only cultivate slowly on his own.
There is a way to reduce the required cultivation for promotion, which is to improve his aptitude. If he can raise his aptitude to the third rank, the required cultivation will be halved, only needing 300 years.
Currently, he only has a fourth rank aptitude. It is already difficult for him to cultivate to the True Martial Realm. Generally, it takes over 200 years of arduous cultivation to have a chance to condense the True Martial Dan, with a success rate of no more than 10%.
Usually, only one out of twelve or thirteen Myriad Manifestations Realm Grandmasters with a fourth rank aptitude successfully advances to the True Martial Realm, and the grade of the condensed True Martial Dan is not high.
Han Li, who has mastered the All-Purpose Martial Dao, faces even greater difficulty. When he advances, he needs someone to help him condense a fake Dan to conceal the problem of his Martial Dao level being too high, which requires 200 years of cultivation.
The condensed fake Dan is comparable to a king-grade True Martial Dan, and it also needs to shorten hundreds of years of arduous cultivation to just a few breaths, which requires another 200 years of cultivation.
Although the required cultivation for promotion is a lot, Laozu still decides to take a shortcut.
If he were to work hard in cultivation, he would be able to kill all cultivators lying flat. He should give other cultivators a way out.
"Ah, Laozu, I really have to work hard again day after day."
Lianbao Laozu sighs with mixed emotions, as if he can see the scene of himself "conquering the battlefield without an enemy, refining countless treasures to prove the Great Dao."
Closing his own panel, Han Li checks another panel, where there are three progress bars.
【Number of Descendants: 803 ↑】
【Aptitude Descendants: 264 ↑】
【Current Aptitude: Fourth Rank 11% ↑】
After taking a glance, Han Laozu closes it, having a rough idea in his mind.
Among the previous batch of one hundred new descendants, most of them have aptitude because their parents mostly have aptitude.
From eight hundred to nine hundred, the number of aptitude descendants among these one hundred descendants will be much smaller, but it should be enough to reach three hundred aptitude descendants.
The current progress is about as expected. It will take about a year to have nine hundred descendants and three hundred aptitude descendants.
Han Li notices that the total number of descendants and the ratio of aptitude descendants have increased. This may be related to his own aptitude and the aptitude of the wives he has married in recent years.
The probability of two unqualified mortals giving birth to a qualified descendant is very low, which is the current situation of endless mortals. However, their population is large, and they still provide a large number of cultivators to the cultivation world.
If one of the parents has qualifications, the probability of giving birth to a qualified descendant will increase. It is difficult to say how much it will increase, as it varies from person to person. Maybe the first descendant will mutate into a first-grade qualification.
However, this kind of situation is usually a reincarnation of a powerful being, or they are born with great luck, also known as the "Child of Luck"?
If both descendants have qualifications, the probability of giving birth to qualified descendants is very high. The higher the qualifications and cultivation level, the greater the probability. However, it is also possible to give birth to unqualified descendants, which is not uncommon in the cultivation world.
When the Grandmaster of the Myriad Manifestations Realm and a female cultivator of the Soul Refining Realm combined, their third descendant did not have qualifications.
"One year later, nine hundred descendants, three hundred qualified descendants; two years later, one thousand descendants."
Han Li felt that in three or four years at most, he would accumulate enough cultivation to break through to the True Martial Realm, and his strength would be greatly improved in all aspects.
During this process, he may also obtain some advanced martial arts and powerful weapons. His strength will steadily increase.
"Oh, I have achieved the Great Dao."
Thinking about how quickly the number of descendants is growing, Han Li's face is full of smiles.
Suddenly, his pupils contracted. He saw countless changes in the direction of Leizhou, with a divine light soaring into the sky. With his vision, even though he was standing on top of a ten thousand-meter mountain, he could barely see it from a distance of over two million miles.
"It's finally here!" Han Li took a breath in his heart, and then quickly let it go.
He blinked his eyes and felt a bit embarrassed. "It's not my opportunity, and I'm not going to fight for it. What am I looking forward to?"
Han Li felt that he might be a little bit floating. After capturing Lutianxiang and persuading Jiang Baiye, he had a lot of thoughts about this kind of thing.
After seeing the Dragon Maiden, Han Li's first thought was not "how high her cultivation level is, how powerful she was in her previous life," but "it would be great if I could capture the Dragon Maiden and make her my Dao companion. As a reincarnation of a saint, her qualifications should be at least first-grade."
This is also a shortcut. As long as he has descendants with high qualifications and high cultivation levels, there is a high probability that they will inherit their original qualifications.
The higher the qualifications of the children, the more rewards they can obtain in terms of new grades, as well as a large amount of qualification feedback.
Currently, his fourth-grade qualification is only 11%. Normally, it is almost impossible to promote to third-grade qualification in a short period of time.
A fourth-grade descendant can only increase his qualification by one-tenth, while a third-grade descendant can increase it by three-tenths.
If it is below fourth-grade, the increase will be even less, and it needs to be accumulated in quantity. Moreover, there are few wives and concubines who can give birth to fifth-grade or higher descendants, only Lutianxiang, Jiang Baiye, Lin Yiwu, Lin Yiyin, and other women.
Both he and Jiang Baiye have fourth-grade qualifications. After four or five months, Jiang Baiye's child will be born, and the probability is also only fourth-grade, increasing the qualification by one-tenth.
If he can capture a female cultivator in the True Martial Realm or capture the Dragon Maiden, as long as they give birth to his descendants, their qualifications are generally high, and it is possible to have third-grade, second-grade, or even first-grade qualifications.
If he can capture the Dragon Maiden and have a child with her, with second-grade qualifications, he can directly promote to third-grade qualifications. If it is first-grade qualifications, he might even directly promote to second-grade qualifications. It would be so satisfying.
After reaching third-grade and second-grade qualifications, the cultivation required to advance to the True Martial Realm will be greatly reduced. At that time, he will truly soar.
Of course, Han Li was just thinking about it. He felt that the chance of capturing the Dragon Maiden as his Dao companion was very small. The Dragon Maiden's strength is too strong.
Han Li's current combat power is only enough to test the waters. In a head-on confrontation, Han Li feels a bit weak. His defense is too weak, and the Dragon Maiden's attacks are too strong. Moreover, the Dragon Maiden's speed may not be slower than his.
As a reincarnation of a saint, the Dragon Maiden has profound foundations and must have many hidden cards. In her peak state, Han Li can only "watch from afar and not profane."
If the Dragon Maiden is unfortunate enough to be injured and her injuries are quite severe, resulting in a significant decline in her strength, Han Li will consider taking action.
Han Li believes that the most urgent task is to see if there are any female cultivators in the True Martial realm among those who are fighting for the Dragon Pearl of the Jiao Saint. His first target is to seize an opportunity to capture a female cultivator in the True Martial realm. As for the Dragon Maiden, it will depend on the situation before making a decision. She must not act recklessly without any chance.
Leizhou, the Nine Heavens.
After careful investigation for several months, the Dragon Maiden finally breathed a sigh of relief.
All the hidden True Martial realm cultivators within a radius of millions of miles have been discovered by the Dragon Maiden, and they are mostly in the early stage of the True Martial realm, without any old monsters.
The number of True Martial realm cultivators in the Profound Domain is already scarce, and there are even fewer who have reached the late stage or peak of the True Martial realm. There are only two or three of them, and Martial Emperor Long Yue knows that they have not been found.
As for the foreign domains, as long as they are not people from the sacred land, even if they are in the late stage or peak of the True Martial realm, it is difficult for them to know about the emergence of her Dragon Pearl.
Those early-stage True Martial realm Martial Emperors are not fools and will not spread rumors. Otherwise, if Martial Emperors in the late stage or peak of the True Martial realm come, they will have no chance to compete. The difference in strength is too great, and they won't even have a chance to take advantage of the situation.
Long Yue also confirmed that there are no Martial Emperors lurking in the Divine Origin Realm in the Qian Primordial Spirit Province. There are only a few of them, and Long Yue has been paying special attention to their whereabouts, but there is no sign of them arriving in the Profound Domain.
The old ancestor of the Great Ancient Dynasty, who is suspected to have Divine Origin Realm cultivation, has not come out of seclusion until now, and it is unlikely that he will interfere randomly.
During this period, Long Yue has been thinking about why the Great Sage treated her like this back then. If the Great Sage hadn't spared her life, she wouldn't even have the opportunity to be reborn.
The Great Sage is a respectful title for peak cultivators in the Holy Abyss Realm. Their strength is boundless and awe-inspiring.
Long Yue had just ascended to the Holy Abyss Realm not long ago and had not fully mastered the mysteries of this realm. She had cultivated some powerful martial techniques of the Holy Abyss Realm.
In the cultivation world, techniques, martial skills, weapons, etc. are divided into Royal Grade, Profound Grade, Earth Grade, and Heaven Grade, with each grade further divided into lower, middle, upper, and extreme levels.
The lower and middle levels of the Earth Grade correspond to the Empty Void Realm, while the upper and extreme levels correspond to the Myriad Manifestations Realm. The lower and middle levels of the Heaven Grade correspond to the True Martial realm, while the upper and extreme levels correspond to the Divine Origin Realm.
After ancient times, few cultivators knew that there was a level above the Heaven Grade called the Divine Grade, with techniques referred to as Divine Techniques, martial skills as Divine Skills, weapons as Divine Weapons, and even divine medicines and divine pills.
The Divine Grade is also divided into lower, middle, upper, and extreme levels. The lower and middle levels of the Divine Grade correspond to the Universal Truth Realm, while the upper and extreme levels correspond to the Holy Abyss Realm.
Long Yue has mastered many martial skills of the middle and lower levels of the Divine Grade, and she has also cultivated two or three martial skills of the upper level, but her mastery level is not high.
She is currently only at the third level of the True Martial realm, and she can't even use many martial skills of the middle and lower levels of the Divine Grade, let alone the upper level.
Divine Grade martial skills consume a lot of energy. Although the True Martial realm's true essence is vast like the sea, she can only use a few moves.
However, Long Yue believes it is enough. Even if she only uses martial skills of the lower level of the Divine Grade, it can greatly enhance her combat power.
After being reborn, with the experience of her previous life, she has been able to cultivate martial skills at a very fast pace. She has already re-cultivated some Divine Grade martial skills to a perfect level, which can be used as a trump card.
"Hoo~"
After the final investigation, Long Yue exhaled and her figure flashed, instantly appearing in the sky above Yingyuan Mountain. With her jade-like hand forming complex and mysterious hand seals, she opened the Jiao Saint's secret realm.
PS: I suddenly discovered that a fantasy author I used to like, "Ni Cang Tian," has returned. His "Killing God" is truly a classic. I used to stay up late to read it.
Although Ni Da doesn't know me, I still want to recommend his new book, "Catastrophe of Purgatory." It has already reached nearly 100,000 words. If you like the Killing God, the Lingyu, and Ni Da's works, please support him.
Finally, I hope Ni Da's new book becomes popular, and he returns to his status as a top author, achieving platinum status.
