36: Chapter 36 Peak of Body Cultivation Mastery!

Golden Spiritual Qi intertwined and merged with lightning, spreading across Chen Zhiwen's body, as if draping him in a majestic suit of armor.

Chen Zhiwen's Aura was like a rainbow as he continuously battled the other two Body Cultivators in the Grandmaster Peak Realm.

After losing one person, Chen Zhiwen's situation improved significantly, and he was no longer being suppressed by the two of them.

On the contrary, under Chen Zhiwen's dense and continuous attacks, the two gradually showed signs of defeat, their skin cracking from the terrifying force.

Seeing this, Chen Zhiwen's gaze sharpened, and the vast Spiritual Qi in his spirit sea surged crazily.

Chen Zhiwen delivered a whip kick, sending the two flying. Before they could land, Chen Zhiwen pressed his advantage, flashing instantly in front of them.

He threw a punch, shattering their heads!

After they died, their bodies turned into specks of starlight that surged into Chen Zhiwen's body, causing his Aura to soar once again.

The energy of the nirvana seed within his body merged with the energy of the prison suppressing pagoda, tempering Chen Zhiwen's physical body.

Once both energies were exhausted, Chen Zhiwen's Body Cultivator Realm successfully stepped into the Grandmaster Peak Realm!

He was only one step away from entering the Great Grandmaster Realm.

Feeling the changes within his body, a smile appeared on Chen Zhiwen's face.

Overnight, his Body Cultivator Realm had broken through from Early-stage Master to the Grandmaster Peak Realm.

Having been busy all night, Chen Zhiwen was very satisfied with the harvest.

After restraining his Aura, Chen Zhiwen looked up toward the seventh level of the prison suppressing pagoda.

Pausing for a moment, Chen Zhiwen chose not to head to the seventh level; he still had some self-awareness.

The reason he was able to pass the sixth level was entirely due to the nirvana seed inside him and his own cultivation as a Great Grandmaster of Qi Refining.

The test on the seventh level, without needing to guess, must be three powerful Body Cultivators above the Grandmaster Realm.

With his current strength, he was afraid that if he went up, he wouldn't even be able to block half a move from the opponent.

Chen Zhiwen, who cultivated both major systems simultaneously, knew deeply the gap between a Grandmaster and a Great Grandmaster.

The gap between the two, even if it couldn't be described as the difference between heaven and earth, it was no exaggeration to describe it as the difference between heaven and an abyss.

There had always been a saying circulating throughout the Huang Province.

"A Great Grandmaster is an immortal on earth, invincible!"

It was precisely because of this that Cultivators in the Huang Province who could reach the Grandmaster Realm were as numerous as crucian carp crossing a river.

Yet, those who could truly leap over the Dragon Gate and become Cultivators in the Great Grandmaster Realm were few and far between.

But once one could break through to the Great Grandmaster Realm, it meant that they could establish an immortal sect that would last for a thousand years in the Huang Province.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Chen Zhiwen turned and walked downstairs.

Leaving the prison suppressing pagoda, Chen Zhiwen returned to the Chen Residence and fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.

...

Just as Chen Zhiwen was fast asleep, in Baizhou Prefecture, adjacent to Cangyue Prefecture.

In an antique mansion in the prefecture capital, the Sixth Prince of the Great Xuan Dynasty, Chen Zhiwu, was practicing blade techniques in the courtyard with his upper body bare.

As the blade light flickered, a strong Aura of slaughter burst forth from the blade style.

Chen Zhiwu's subordinates in the courtyard stood respectfully to the side, not daring to disturb him.

It wasn't until Chen Zhiwu stopped, drenched in sweat, that an old man with a white beard slowly walked forward.

Chen Zhiwu raised his hand, letting a maid wipe the sweat from his body, while coldly glancing at the old man. "Elder Xu, how is the investigation into the annihilation of the Bristle Tusk Hyena Clan going?"

Elder Xu lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "Reporting to Your Highness, according to our investigation, the Bristle Tusk Hyena Clan was very likely killed by a Great Grandmaster."

Chen Zhiwu's eyes lit up upon hearing this. He waved his hand to dismiss the maid nearby, then asked with some interest, "Could it be that the Old Ancestor of our Great Xuan Imperial Family took action?"

"Your Highness, it was not that Senior who took action."

"Oh? If it wasn't the Old Ancestor of our Great Xuan Imperial Family, could it be some old monster from another faction?" Chen Zhiwu was surprised, but quickly denied it.

"Impossible! Which of those old monsters isn't afraid of death? How could they dare to step into the territory of our Great Xuan Imperial Dynasty?"

Elder Xu said, "Your Highness, have you heard about the matter between the collateral branch of the Ye Family and the Tang Family some time ago?"

Chen Zhiwu nodded. "I have naturally heard of this matter... Do you mean that mysterious Great Grandmaster wearing a silver fox mask?!"

"Your Highness, there is another matter you might not know yet. Besides the Bristle Tusk Hyena Clan, two other Yao Race factions in Cangyue Prefecture have also been exterminated!"

"Aside from that mysterious Great Grandmaster, I really cannot think of anyone else with this strength," Elder Xu said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, an exceptionally ugly expression appeared on Chen Zhiwu's face.

"According to what you are saying, does that mysterious Great Grandmaster also know about the nirvana seed?"

Elder Xu nodded and hesitated, "This person should be aware of it; otherwise, he wouldn't have taken action against those Yao Race factions in Cangyue Prefecture."

Chen Zhiwu slammed the table and stood up in anger, roaring unwillingly, "Damn it! I have waited for such a long time, just wanting to reap the benefits of the fisherman."

"I didn't expect a Great Grandmaster to emerge halfway!"

Elder Xu observed Chen Zhiwu fearfully and said cautiously, "Your Highness, do not be angry; all of this is just speculation."

"Perhaps that Great Grandmaster simply dislikes those Yao Race, and knows nothing about the nirvana seed."

Chen Zhiwu glanced coldly at Elder Xu, sat back down, and sighed, "I hope that is the case."

Just as Chen Zhiwu's voice fell, an old man in a gray robe hurried to the mansion.

"Your Highness, something terrible has happened!" the old man in the gray robe shouted loudly.

Chen Zhiwu frowned tightly, and a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart.

"What happened?" Elder Xu asked, looking at the old man in the gray robe.

The old man in the gray robe said, "Just received news that a drastic change has occurred in Cangyue Prefecture; it is very... very likely that the nirvana seed has awakened!"

Once these words were spoken, the expressions of Chen Zhiwu and Elder Xu changed.

Chen Zhiwu stood up with a gloomy face, said nothing, and turned to go back to his room alone.

Elder Xu and the old man in the gray robe looked at each other, helplessly and unwillingly letting out a sigh.

They both knew what this meant.

After preparing for so long, they had ultimately done the work for someone else.

...

Within the territory of the Great Xuan Imperial Dynasty, there were twelve major domains and hundreds of prefectures.

Among them, Cangyue Prefecture was the most special; not only did the people of the Great Xuan Imperial Dynasty guard against riots by the Yao Race in this prefecture every moment.

The other three major Imperial Dynasties and the Ten Great Sects were also closely monitoring this prefecture.

As the Peak powers in the Huang Province, they had all heard more or less rumors about the nirvana seed.

Unfortunately, due to the deterrence of the Great Xuan Imperial Family, they could not openly send people to search for it.

Three days after Chen Zhiwen refined the nirvana seed, what happened that night in Gu Cang City and the changes in Cangyue Prefecture finally spread out.

Countless forces in the dark were shocked upon learning this.

They immediately associated it with the rumored nirvana seed and released the word immediately.

Whoever obtained the nirvana seed and was willing to trade with them could make any request!
