With the increase of service life, take-off is just around the corner!

“The projection duration has increased?!”

Jiang Qing’s eyes lit up.

What had always limited him was the short projection duration; within a year, his Martial Arts cultivation could at most reach the Martial Marquis, and his Civilization Master Realm could only reach theSoaring Realm (Ling Yun Realm), making it difficult to advance further.

But if the projection duration increased to two years… regardless of Martial Arts, his Civilization Master Realm could definitely reach the Mountain and Sea Realm, and his Mental Energy strength would be comparable to the sun and moon!

By then, he would be able to refine eighth-rank Puppets, seventh-grade Medicinal Pills, and even attempt to refine some less difficult eighth-grade Medicinal Pills!

One must know that his Alchemy skills had already reached the Transcendent Realm, and any Medicinal Pill he refined was a perfect, Pill Cloud-level Medicinal Pill.

Perfect-grade seventh-grade and eighth-grade Medicinal Pills were divine objects that seized the creation of Heaven and Earth.

Each projection could at least refine one perfect Medicinal Pill. If Jiang Qing consumed one per day, to what extent could his strength improve?

Thinking of this, Jiang Qing found it hard to imagine.

Consuming one seventh-grade or eighth-grade perfect Medicinal Pill per day would make his Martial Arts foundation even stronger, and his cultivation strength would grow rapidly.

And there were the eighth-rank Puppets… Nearly ten half-step eighth-rank God Puppets would be enough to contend with a Martial King. If there were over a dozen truly eighth-rank God Puppets, wouldn’t he be able to walk sideways in front of a Martial King?

The benefits of increasing the projection duration were not limited to this. Two years of projection time would be enough for him to Cultivate to the Peak Martial Venerable, and even attain the Dao of a Martial King.

By then, the resources he could leave behind would be even more, and his invincible will would be tempered to be even more terrifying, allowing him to do more during the projection process!

For example, he could project into the Battlefield of the Heavens in modern times. Treasures obtained during that period could be perfectly preserved in the present.

Moreover, his projection process would influence history. With sufficient strength, he could try out some of his ideas…

In the current Battlefield of the Heavens, some top powerhouses were not outstanding in their early stages. He could invest in them in advance during the projection process.

In the present, those who had been invested by him had already risen, becoming top magnates renowned throughout the Battlefield of the Heavens…

The more he thought about it, the more extraordinary it seemed. It was a while before Jiang Qing calmed his emotions.

Putting other things aside for now, the most urgent task was to first gather the Mystic Heaven Five Imprints. Any idea required sufficient strength to be realized. Only when he became stronger could he attempt to do more.

Otherwise, even projecting into the Battlefield of the Heavens in modern times would just be delivering himself to his death. In that period, the Human Race was no longer prominent; instead, other races had grown strong.

Under such circumstances, he could only rely on himself, so he had to wait until he was strong enough before going.

Jiang Qing set himself as the target, confirmed the projection environment and conditions, and began the projection.

【Projection Target】: Jiang Qing.

【Projection World】: Battlefield of the Heavens.

【Projection Time】: Ancient Era.

【Duration】: 2 years.

【Projection Environment】: Xuan Tian Secret Realm.

【Projection Conditions】: In the early stage, focus on Cultivating Mental Energy without interfering with worldly affairs. In the later stage, pass the trials to obtain the Zhen Ling Seal. After obtaining the Zhen Ling Seal, search for the birthplaces of Strange Spirits as recorded, and try to find more Strange Spirits.

【Projection begins…】

【Ancient Era, you appeared in a Human Race city, assumed a false identity, joined the Civilization Saint Hall, and devoted yourself to Cultivating and improving your Mental Energy strength…】

【Three months passed, your cultivation steadily improved, and you gained a large number of merit points by relying on your excellent Alchemy skills…】

【Ten months passed, your cultivation reached theSoaring Realm (Ling Yun Realm), and your Mental Energy strength was comparable to a Mountain and Sea Realm Civilization Master. You went to the Xuan Tian Secret Realm, chose the Zhen Ling Seal trial, and began the challenge…】

【You were teleported into the Zhen Ling Seal trial. The first trial required you to use the Spirit Absorption method to control a second-rate Strange Spirit. You used the Spirit Absorption method and easily controlled it…】

【You easily passed the previous trials and reached the final trial by virtue of your excellent Spirit Absorption method. This trial required you to use the Spirit Absorption method to control a Heaven and Earth Different Fire. As long as you could control it, you would pass the trial.】

【Having experience in controlling Different Fires, coupled with your excellent Spirit Absorption method, you quickly controlled the “Purple Crystal Spirit Flame,” passed the trial, and obtained the Zhen Ling Seal.】

【You left the Xuan Tian Secret Realm and found a secluded place to Cultivate the Zhen Ling Seal diligently.】

【Twelve months passed, you could skillfully use the Zhen Ling Seal. You used the Zhen Ling Seal to control the three Strange Spirits you possessed, and were surprised to find that under the suppression of the Zhen Ling Seal, the three distinctly different Strange Spirits could achieve power Fusion…】

【You returned to the Civilization Saint Hall, consulted a large amount of information, and conversed for a long time with several Civilization Masters who had created their own Martial Arts secret techniques, finally coming up with an idea…】

【Fourteen months passed, you attempted to fuse the power of Strange Spirits…】

【Sixteen months passed, you created the Martial Arts secret technique “Qi Ling Seal,” which uses Strange Spirits as its power source. It can forcefully accommodate the power of two or more Strange Spirits to fuse into a seal, with power comparable to Heaven Rank Martial Arts, and its power increases with the number of Strange Spirits it accommodates.】

【After creating the Qi Ling Seal, you began to travel outside, searching for Heaven and Earth Strange Spirits that could be recorded by the Zhen Ling Seal…】

【Twenty-four months passed, you found three first-rate Strange Spirits outside and incorporated them into yourself. Within two years, you accumulated a vast fortune and buried it all outside the Zhen Yao Gate Military Camp of later generations…】

【Projection ended, settling…】

… …

Two years of memories flooded into his mind, and Jiang Qing’s eyes were filled with intense joy.

This projection was originally just to obtain the Zhen Ling Seal, but he unexpectedly gained two pleasant surprises.

First was the creation of the Qi Ling Seal, whose power was comparable to Heaven Rank Martial Arts, and second was obtaining the Purple Crystal Spirit Flame after passing the trial.

With the Purple Crystal Spirit Flame, he now had two Different Fires!

The Purple Crystal Spirit Flame was no less inferior to the Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire. Its characteristic was that it burned everything; anything could be incinerated by the Purple Crystal Spirit Flame, making its attack effect extremely prominent.

The Qi Ling Seal was a top-tier secret technique that could forcefully accommodate the power of two Different Fires to form a seal. With one strike, it would be difficult for anyone to withstand the combined power of two Different Fires, and if Spirit Lightning was added, its power would be even greater.

Obtaining the Purple Crystal Spirit Flame was already a gain, and with the addition of the Qi Ling Seal and Zhen Ling Seal, this projection was a huge profit!

Jiang Qing quickly went outside the Zhen Yao Gate Military Camp before the city defense battle began.

To avoid being discovered, the location where he buried the treasures was very far from the Zhen Yao Gate Military Camp. It took him a full half an hour to find the place.

Jiang Qing took out a shovel and dug out all the lifelong gains he had left behind.

In two years, he had accumulated a considerable fortune. After arduous Cultivation, his Mental Energy could already rival the sun and moon. During the projection, he attempted to refine a seventh-grade Medicinal Pill and successfully refined a Pill Cloud seventh-grade Medicinal Pill.

After twenty thousand years of circulation to the present, the cleansing of the Pill Cloud had elevated this seventh-grade Medicinal Pill to an eighth-grade one, making it extraordinarily valuable.

There were also the three first-rate Strange Spirits preserved to the present by the Zhen Ling Seal. Their effects were not comparable to Heaven and Earth Different Fires, but they were not weak either, adding to Jiang Qing’s foundation.

Besides these, all other non-urgently needed resources were thrown into the Purple Lightning Remains. After completing all this, Jiang Qing restored the excavated pit and then returned to the military camp.
