Terran Guardian - Chapter 3983

Chapter 3958: A Surge in Strength

“Sixty-six Grade Three Chaos Saint Bone Pills. I wonder if these pills will allow me to break through to the third level of the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Scripture!”

Inside the first level of the Seven Profound Divine Tower, Shen Changqing looked at the pills in his hand, pondering to himself.

This time, he had refined thirty batches of pills, using less than half of the Chaos Divine Elephant’s essence blood.

If he could gather other rare and precious materials later, he could still start refining pills again.

It could be said

that this Chaos Divine Elephant’s essence blood, being at the Ninth Tribulation Half-Saint realm, could sustain him for a longer time if he only refined Grade Three Chaos Saint Bone Pills.

However,

the cost of each batch of Grade Three Chaos Saint Bone Pills was not low.

Even excluding the Chaos Divine Elephant’s essence blood, just the other rare and precious materials alone would require approximately a hundred top-grade immortal stones per batch.

Of course,

immortal stones were one aspect.

The difficulty of collecting them was another. Any rare and precious material, especially high-grade ones, was quite rare.

Finding them

was not an easy task.

Shen Changqing didn’t dwell on it too much, as he hadn’t even used up all the pills yet, so there was no need to overthink it.

…

In the following years,

Shen Changqing focused entirely on seclusion, striving to reach a higher level.

The effects of the Grade 3 Chaos Saint Bone Pill were far greater than when he was at Grade 1.

The abundant supply of pills allowed him to advance his Heavenly Fiend Immortal Scripture by leaps and bounds.

With each pill consumed, Shen Changqing’s strength steadily increased.

Time passed.

In the one millionth year, Shen Changqing’s physical body and blood underwent a transformation, stepping into the second minor completion stage of the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Scripture, his physical strength surging to the level of 170,000 Chaos Divine Elephants. In the three millionth year,

Shen Changqing achieved great success in the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Scripture, his physical strength comparable to 200,000 Chaos Divine Elephants.

The five hundredth year!

The six millionth year!

…

The nine millionth year!

Shen Changqing slowly opened his eyes, exhaling a breath of turbid air. A devastating gale suddenly erupted in the void of the Immortal Abode, sweeping across billions of miles. Everything caught in its wake was instantly shattered into dust.

“The third level of the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Scripture… I’ve finally broken through!”

He felt the terrifying power surging within his body. This power was far stronger than when he first entered the second level of the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Scripture.

The difference was like heaven and earth.

Entering the second level of the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Scripture required a physical strength equivalent to only 150,000 Chaos Divine Elephants.

But entering the third level, he had already stepped into the realm of 300,000 Chaos Divine Elephants. Clearly,

the difference between the second and third levels was astonishing.

Previously, without truly reaching the Half-Saint realm, Shen Changqing’s understanding of the Nine Tribulations of Half-Saint, each tribulation representing a new level, was ultimately insufficient.

Only now, with his physical body truly at the Half-Saint level, could he understand the immense difference between each level,

just like the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Scripture.

The first level of the Half-Saint Scripture, at the entry level, grants the power of only 50,000 Chaos Divine Elephants; even at the Great Perfection level, it’s only 100,000.

At the second level, the entry level grants the power of 150,000 Chaos Divine Elephants, and at the Great Perfection level, this power can surge to 200,000.

Then comes the third level.

Even at the entry level,

a cultivator can possess the power of 300,000 Chaos Divine Elephants.

The difference between each tribulation is insurmountable for ordinary cultivators.

To truly bridge this gap, one must either master a top-tier treasure or possess a top-tier physique and bloodline, allowing their strength to far surpass those of their peers, thus enabling them to fight beyond their level. “At the third level of the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Scripture, my physical defense is comparable to a third-grade innate imperial weapon.

In other words, neither a third-tribulation Half-Saint nor a first or second-tribulation Half-Saint wielding a powerful treasure poses any threat to me.

Even if I stand still, a first or second-tribulation Half-Saint might not be able to break through my defenses.”

Shen Changqing flicked his left finger, a strike powerful enough to shatter galaxies landing on his right arm, leaving only a red mark that vanished in the next instant.

Shen Changqing was naturally satisfied with this level of defensive power.

It should be understood

that his seemingly casual flick contained enough power to suppress an ordinary Second Tribulation Half-Saint.

Yet, this level of power hadn’t left the slightest injury on his arm.

How could he not be satisfied with such defensive strength?

Unbreakable defense

meant invincibility !

The benefits of this kind of physical cultivation became increasingly apparent as his cultivation level rose. “The power of 300,000 Chaos Divine Elephants, if combined with the Chaos Blood Qi Technique, I could even unleash the power of 330,000 Chaos Divine Elephants.

If I were to further activate the bloodline power of the Primordial Immortal Body, the power unleashed would be even stronger.

With my current strength, contending with a Fourth Tribulation Half-Saint shouldn’t be a problem!”

Shen Changqing’s divine sense stirred slightly, and his figure vanished. When he reappeared, he was already in the void of the fourth level.

Now, the Seven Profound Divine Tower contained countless Half-Saints, and Shen Changqing easily found a Fourth Tribulation level Half-Saint as his opponent.

The next moment…

Then the void trembled.

The figure of a middle-aged Taoist priest materialized.

The moment he appeared, his indifferent gaze fell directly on Shen Changqing. He then took a step forward, the power of the Great Dao’s rules pressing down on the void. The power of a Fourth Tribulation Half-Saint was unleashed without reservation, suppressing everything.

“Fight!”

Shen Changqing remained fearless. His blood and qi instantly surged to their peak, the power of his Primordial Immortal Body, hidden within his body, now unleashed without any concealment.

In an instant, blood qi soared into the sky, like a divine sun illuminating billions of miles of chaos. Furthermore, the phantom of a chaotic divine elephant, originating from the long river of time and having traversed countless ancient star rivers, appeared.

“Boom—”

Shen Changqing unleashed a punch, the void before him instantly collapsing. His fierce and domineering power contained the force of destruction, clashing fiercely with the Fourth Tribulation Half-Saint.

…

Boom!

Rumble!!

The two figures clashed in the void, exchanging blows millions of times with each breath. The power unleashed by each strike was earth-shattering, seemingly capable of shattering the cosmos and reshaping the universe. The

more they fought,

the more Shen Changqing’s blood boiled.

The suppressed power accumulated over years of seclusion was now being unleashed.

Looking at the Fourth Tribulation Half-Saint, initially he could barely contend with Shen Changqing, but later he was completely on the defensive.

Now, Shen Changqing was unleashing his full power, each punch possessing indescribable force. Under this pressure, the Fourth Tribulation Half-Saint was forced to retreat steadily. After

an unknown amount of time,

with another punch from Shen Changqing, the Dao aura surrounding the Fourth Tribulation Half-Saint suddenly dissipated, forcing him to raise his hand to block.

But how could the flesh and blood of such an ordinary Half-Saint withstand Shen Changqing’s domineering power?

The force of that punch not only shattered his arm, but the remaining power also struck his chest, causing his body to explode. The rolling shockwaves swept in all directions, causing the void to tremble.
