In a tranquil chamber, suffused with rich Spiritual Qi, Jiang Chen settled onto a woven mat and drew forth a storage ring.


    This very ring safeguarded the spiritual nts that Ji Mingxiu and his team had so diligently amassed.


    A sweep of his divine sense unveiled two Dao Pce realm spiritual nts,plemented by an impressive sixty from the Dao Comprehension realm within!


    While there was one Dao Pce realm spiritual nt fewer than before, Jiang Chen couldn''t contain his tion.


    At that moment, Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning also beheld the spiritual nts inside the ring. Due to their unique bond as part of his Heaven-Defying Fate Changer, they could view through his eyes when he permitted.


    Witnessing him retrieve these spiritual nts, both women were taken aback. Was Jiang Chen preparing to concoct pills?


    Yet, in the very next moment, both Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning''s astonishment deepened.


    Without a hint of hesitation, Jiang Chen popped a raw spiritual nt directly into his mouth!


    "Jiang Chen, since when do cultivators consume raw spiritual nts? Isn''t the norm to refine them into pills?" Shangguan Ning''s voice was heavy with incredulity.


    Though Nangong Wan said nothing, her expression of shock echoed Shangguan Ning''s sentiments.


    "I should have told you earlier. Consuming spiritual nts raw boosts my cultivation," Jiang Chen began, patiently borating on the ''Burning World Red Lotus'' to Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning.


    Considering their crucial roles in his Heaven-Defying Fate Changer, he trusted them implicitly. Sharing such insights with them would yield advantages rather than drawbacks.


    Quickly, it dawned on Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning that Jiang Chen had remnants of a Void Tribtion realm Great Demon. From his detailed ount, it was evident this wasn''t just any Great Demon!


    Discovering this secret weapon in Jiang Chen''s arsenal, both women were filled with renewed hope and tion.


    The more powerful Jiang Chen became, the closer they were to regaining their previous might.


    Without hesitation, Jiang Chen ingested spiritual nts one after another. Their potent medicinal essence surged, flowing directly to his dantian and fueling the Burning World Red Lotus.


    In mere moments, another petal of the Burning World Red Lotus came to life, visibly regaining its vitality.


    Once rejuvenated, the lotus bestowed upon Jiang Chen a tremendous surge of cultivation power, amplifying every facet of his being and reinforcing his Dao Core.


    Every bone, muscle, vital organ, dantian, and meridian felt this profound enhancement.


    His very soul was elevated.


    Once the Burning World Red Lotus fully assimted the spiritual nts'' power, Jiang Chen''s cultivation soared to the pinnacle of the Middle-stage Inquiring Journey realm, nearly touching the cusp of the Late-stage.


    ''The next breakthrough is imminent!'' Excitement gleamed in Jiang Chen''s eyes as he procured a breakthrough pill for the Inquiring Journey realm from his storage ring.


    While the Purple Heaven Holy Land mightck Dao Pce realm pills, they were well-stocked for the Dao Comprehension and Inquiring Journey realms.


    Until reaching the Dao Pce realm, Jiang Chen had no need to exchange for breakthrough-type pills from his System.


    With a decisive motion, Jiang Chen consumed the pill in one swallow.


    Its potent force surged inside him, reminiscent of an unleashed flood''s roaring might.


    In the moments that followed, his Dao Core transformed, shining as luminously as the sun, channeling the surge into an overflow of Dao Yuan Power.


    This power permeated Jiang Chen''s being, growing more potent.


    With its sun-like brilliance, the Dao Core''s glow intensified.


    Both the Dao Core and the Dao Yuan Power evolved in tandem, creating a self-sustaining cycle of enhancement.


    Cycling through these transformative phases, Jiang Chen seamlessly progressed to the Late-stage Inquiring Journey realm!


    Inside his dantian, the Dao Core glowed with the intense brilliance of a true sun.


    His meridians pulsed with the overwhelming surge of Dao Yuan Power, heralding unparalleled might.


    Both Jiang Chen''s soul and physical form experienced significant fortification, reaping the benefits of this profound enhancement.


    With the boost in his cultivation base, the martial techniques and secret arts Jiang Chen practiced revealed their deeper potential.


    The Burning World Red Lotus was revitalized, and the World Burning Raging mes'' power refined even further.


    Most notably, his Death Cmity True Dragon bloodline began to resonate with an even more profound force. Despite possessing this powerful lineage, Jiang Chen had yet to unveil this ace up his sleeve!


    Simultaneously, Shangguan Ning eximed, "Jiang Chen has achieved a breakthrough!"


    Nangong Wan, eyes wide in surprise, responded, "He''s advanced to the Late-stage Inquiring Journey Realm, so rapidly!"


    Shangguan Ningughed heartily, adding, "Haha, this brings me such joy!"


    Observing Jiang Chen''s breakthrough, both Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning were filled with pure tion.


    With a focused thought, Jiang Chenmanded, ''System! Disy my panel!''


    Instantly, his attribute panel materialized before him.

    Jiang Chen thought to himself, ''Middle-stage Dao Comprehension realm, is it?''


    ''Perhaps, if I utilize the transformation technique of the Death Cmity True Dragon bloodline, and pair it with the ''Blood Sword Epassing the Heavens'' and the ''Burning World Raging mes'', I could potentially manifestbat powerparable to the Late-stage Dao Comprehension realm.''


    ''However, this is merely my current strength. I still have a vast reserve of untapped qi and blood energy. Moreover, there are countless cultivation methods still open for practice!''


    As these thoughts circted, Jiang Chen''s gaze inevitably drifted towards the Wordless Heavenly Jade.


    During the initial onught of the demonic beast tide, Jiang Chen had used only a small portion of his umted qi and blood energy.


    However, after oveing the second, more expansive wave, he had imed the remains of every defeated demonic beast. This wave had been far more substantial than the first.


    As he absorbed the qi and blood from these fallen creatures, the formidable energy within the Wordless Heavenly Jade surged. Now, it held enough potency for him to delve into four to five Dao Pce realm cultivation methods.


    A spark of eagerness flickered in Jiang Chen''s eyes.


    ''It''s time to delve into the ultimate cultivation methods of the Purple Heaven Holy Land!'' Three revered methods emerged in his consciousness: the ''Purple Feather Misty Steps'', the ''Dark Star Sky Splitting Sword Secrets'', and the ''Purple Heaven Heavenly Thunder True Canon''.


    Each of these cultivation methods was ranked amongst the most formidable in the Purple Heaven Holy Land, all being of the Dao Pce realm caliber.


    Yet, their elements were versatile enough to be studied and harnessed even at the Dao Comprehension realm.


    With his reservoir of qi and blood energy brimming, Jiang Chen resolved to master these three cultivation methods first.


    ''Let''smence with the Purple Feather Misty Steps!'' With a mere thought, Jiang Chen''s soul seamlessly melded with the Wordless Heavenly Jade. The intricate intricacies of the Purple Feather Misty Steps began to unveil themselves in his consciousness.


    Almost immediately, he had fully internalized the entire content of the Purple Feather Misty Steps.


    A surge of immense power, reminiscent of a dam breaching its limits, flooded through him. This allowed Jiang Chen to achieve mastery over the martial technique, reaching the perfect-level stage in an astonishingly short span!


    Silently, Jiang Chen felt a transformation. He likened himself to an insubstantial featherephemeral and intangible, akin to a fleeting wisp of mist. He could vanish in a heartbeat, only to reemerge elsewhere, his presence elusive and leaving no mark. His movements had be profoundly unpredictable.


    This cultivation method tapped into the profound essence of the Great Dao, specifically the Wind Dao. The vast array of deep teachings from the Wind Dao honed Jiang Chen''s understanding, drawing him closer to its ultimate mastery.
