142: Chapter 142 The Fourth Realm, Rebuilding the Perfect Seed
The cultivation environment of the Central Training Camp was undoubtedly the best; it significantly accelerated everyone's cultivation speed.
Generally speaking, for an S-rank, honing their skills in the Divine Ability Realm takes at least four or five years, if not longer.
But now, with the training camp boosting their speed, supported by various Heaven And Earth Treasures, and finally, the sacrifice of the Main God's Origin...
Just one year after the war, Su He successfully achieved a Breakthrough and condensed a Perfect Seed.
"Start over!"
However, there was a saying that had spread far and wide.
"A true Perfect Seed needs to be honed by oneself, not dependent on the momentum during the Breakthrough."
Therefore, those true powerhouses, even if they condensed a Perfect Seed upon breaking through, would choose to shatter it and then re-Cultivate it themselves.
The Spirit Seed Realm is the beginning of the evolution of abilities, turning the ability into a [Seed].
There are two states for the seed: one is [Flawed], and the other is [Perfect]. This is a process that can be transformed.
A few months after Su He's Breakthrough, she realized the Lower Realm could no longer assist her, so she chose to head to the Domain of God.
Before leaving, she went to see some old friends: Chen Xing, Li Baxian, Chu Li, and others.
"Your Breakthrough was way too fast, wasn't it?" Chu Li couldn't help but say.
"I'm a year older than you, it's normal." Su He smiled faintly.
"Pfft, what's so great about being older? You're not bigger than me either." Chu Li said disdainfully, glancing at her chest.
"Hmm?" Su He raised her eyebrows slightly.
You're actually comparing?
She said, "Are you preparing to master the fourth flame? Judging by your aura, you're about to break through. We'll be able to meet in the Domain of God in less than a year."
Chu Li slumped her face, resting her chin on her hands, looking depressed: "It's hard, so hard. My body seems unable to withstand the power of the fourth flame; I'm likely to die suddenly."
Hearing this, Su He was a bit surprised: "What kind of flame did you choose? Is it that terrifying?"
Chu Li glanced at her and said slowly, "The Fire of Death."
Su He: "..."
"Are you out of your mind? Let me tell you, if your sister were here, you'd be sent flying after saying that." Su He laughed out of anger.
The Fire of Death involves the Dao of Death.
Death is the ultimate topic for humans, or rather, for all life. Few people can truly face death.
"This Dao is inherently difficult; even Immortal Gods wouldn't dare to touch it lightly. Yet you, in the Divine Ability Realm, dare to attempt it. Do you feel like you didn't die on the battlefield, so you want to die again?"
The most critical point is that Chu Li has also cultivated another Dao—the Fire of Life!
The Fire of Life is already in her body. If the Fire of Death enters, those two extreme forces will repel each other. It would be a miracle if she didn't explode and die!
"Aiya, I know, why do you sound just like my sister?" Chu Li impatiently covered her ears, shaking her head as if trying to deceive herself.
Su He was speechless. This person was usually quite cold in front of others, like an irritable, hot-tempered female Devil Head.
But in front of her own people, she showed her true colors, especially in front of other girls; she was actually quite cute.
"What's the use of covering your ears? Can you not hear me now?" Su He said.
"Aiya, stop talking. I'm already annoyed. How can this be solved? How can I neutralize the repulsion between these two forces?" Chu Li lay on the table.
"My dear lady, please stop your Divine Ability. If you could really pull that off, you'd be transforming from the Dao of Fire to the Dao of Life and Death." Su He scolded with a smile.
"The Dao of Life and Death is one of the five forbidden Domains. You dare to touch this? You must really think you've lived too long."
"No, I'm not reconciled."
"What's there to be unreconciled about? If you really want to, why not just wait until you break through to consider it?"
"..."
Chu Li pondered for a moment and realized it made sense.
After all, when you encounter a question you don't know on an exam, you can skip it and solve it later.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, she hurriedly said:
"Hey, after you go up, don't tell my sister about this, or I'll really get beaten up!"
"You're only scared now? How come you're not afraid of death but afraid of Chu Zhen?" Su He's expression was strange.
"Is that the same thing? You all call me a witch every day, but my sister is truly a Tyrannosaurus!" Chu Li's expression was serious.
Su He was speechless.
Come to think of it, compared to Chu Li, the older sister, Chu Zhen, was the one with the true temper.
Chu Zhen usually didn't like to talk and wouldn't curse when encountering issues, but... she would take action.
If she encountered someone looking for trouble, Chu Li would definitely curse them out, but Chu Zhen was different; usually, she wouldn't say a word and would just start fighting.
"Alright, alright, I should go too. Remember to change your path, otherwise, I can't protect you." Su He smiled gloatingly.
"Hey, if you have the guts, don't go snitching!" Chu Li gritted her teeth.
"My seed has already been shattered by me; I'll find a way to reshape it after I reach the Domain of God." Su He smiled and flashed away.
"Are we talking about the same seed!" Chu Li was somewhat exasperated.
Half a month later, she successfully achieved a Breakthrough.
...
In November, it had been half a month since Su He left.
Tianhe Academy, secret place.
This was the best treasure land in the entire academy, but unlike a Grotto-Heaven and Blissful Land, it required frequent maintenance, so it wasn't easily opened.
But Chen Xing had the highest authority and could enter and exit freely.
Deep within the treasure land, Chen Xing sat cross-legged under an ancient tree, his body surrounded by vines as if they were protecting their master.
On Chen Xing's body, three types of light were entwined: golden light, starlight, and black light; there even appeared the prototype of a fourth light.
"The fourth path, I'll just wait until I go to the Domain of God; there are better resources there."
A moment later, Chen Xing opened his eyes.
With a flip of his hand, he took out the myriad spirit liquid again, but beside him was a giant boulder with the Light Element attribute.
Now, without a master by his side, he needed to use the power of the giant boulder to filter it; otherwise, he would be burst apart by the energy of the myriad spirit liquid.
"Hum!"
In the blink of an eye, Chen Xing entered the state, following the System's guidance, and advanced toward the next Realm.
As the energy entered his body, Chen Xing also opened a black hole within himself, applying black light, utilizing their devouring effect to accelerate the refining process.
"Boom!"
This rumbling continued for three full days. Three days later, the essence within the treasure land was almost completely sucked dry by him.
The new dean could only watch helplessly as the treasure land he had nurtured was ruined, but he dared not disturb him, so he silently shed tears.
"Boom!"
Hard work pays off. On this day, Chen Xing successfully broke through the shackles of the Divine Ability Realm and advanced to the fourth major Realm—the Spirit Seed Realm!
His ability evolved, turning into a seed, which would continuously grow into a towering tree.
"Seeds can be flawed or perfect; mine was perfect from the start." Chen Xing clenched his fingers in the air, feeling this brand-new power.
He remembered the teachings of Teacher Ling Xi, who had said that once a Perfect Seed was condensed, it had to be shattered, and then re-cultivated.
