Chapter 126: Breakthrough—Great Solar Realm

Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon

Inside the chamber that very night.

Meng Chuan sat in the lotus position on a mat with his eyes closed. He had long focused on sensing his dantian space.

In his dantian space, the Core Cloud vortex was dozens of times larger than when he was in the Core Cloud Realm. It spread throughout his dantian region, and there were ten dazzling spheres of light in the Core Cloud vortex! The biggest sphere of light was in the middle of the vortex. The other nine spheres of light revolved around the central sphere at all times.

The Great Solar realm is the most difficult stage of the first three Godfiend realms. He didn’t dare to be careless. The Great Solar realm was a goal many Godfiends sought their entire lives. To Meng Chuan, it was also an extremely important stage! This was because there were many thresholds that he needed to attain before reaching the next realm—Darkstar.

He would fight on the battlefield as a Great Solar Godfiend for many years!

The Power of Essence Soul. With a thought, The Power of Essence Soul fused with the Quintessential Essence in his dantian. He could control every strand of Quintessential Essence in an instant, which made his chances of breaking through much greater.

Break through!

Others could break through to the Great Solar realm without the Power of Essence Soul. Thus, Meng Chuan felt more confident about his chances since he had an Essence Soul.

Boom! In his dantian space, the massive Core Cloud was controlled by Meng Chuan and guided by Saber Intent. Instantly, the Core Cloud vortex imploded! The spheres of light and the Core Cloud vortex combined as one. It looked violent, but it was an extremely ingenious form of creation.

Humming rang out in the dantian as the coalescing power seemed to be creating something. If one’s strength wasn’t enough, it wouldn’t just be a hum but an explosion! They would die on the spot.

The danger of becoming a Godfiend was relatively low. However, breaking through future realms became more difficult and more dangerous. Dying was very possible! Although humans had set many thresholds that needed to be met before one could guarantee they could reach the Darkstar or Incessant realm, there were many instances where their chances of breaking through dropped due to their gradual aging. Therefore, many Godfiends would attempt a breakthrough once they reached a certain percentage of success.

If they succeeded, their strength and lifespans would increase tremendously.

I succeeded. Meng Chuan sensed the changes in his dantian.

The dantian space was pitch black, but in the middle, a sun appeared! It was like the Golden Crow sun in the sky. The moment it appeared, it illuminated the entire dantian region—leaving no spot dark.

The sun floated in his dantian space. The Quintessential Essence emitted by the sun was golden. They contained terrifying destructive power.

Whoosh~

At this moment, the sun in his dantian constantly absorbed the outside world’s energy to nourish his body.

I’ve broken through to the Great Solar realm. Although Meng Chuan was confident, he was still extremely delighted after breaking through. He could sense the Great Solar Quintessential Essence circulating within his body, nourishing him.

Godfiends weren’t good at cultivating their bodies. For example, Meng Chuan mainly relied on two methods to cultivate his body. The first was using Quintessential Essence to temper his body. This was also the most common method. The purer the Quintessential Essence was, the stronger the body would be. The second was to temper his body with lightning. Furthermore, consuming Lightning Tribulation Fruits for extended periods also increased the effects of his cultivation greatly.

The combination of the two was a common method used by Lightning Devastator Fiend Body experts. As for refining new baneful aura, it also partly tempered the body, but it was far inferior to the other two methods.

Even so, Godfiends mainly relied on Quintessential Essence! The strength that was released purely from the body was only a small portion.

Human Godfiends mainly increased their Quintessential Essence quality and quantity—it was the most suitable path for human Godfiends. Compared to demons, humans were born with much weaker bodies! In terms of perception and intelligence, humans were generally much better than demons. The path of cultivation emphasized focusing on one’s strengths to become stronger! Therefore, there were relatively low requirements for physique, but high requirements for their Quintessential Essence.

The body was limited, but Quintessential Essence was limitless!

...

Liu Qiyue—who had been sitting outside all this while—immediately stood up when she heard the door open. Seeing Meng Chuan’s smile, she smiled happily. “Ah Chuan, how do you feel now that you are a Great Solar Godfiend?”

“Great Solar Quintessential Essence is much stronger than Indestructible Quintessential Essence.” Meng Chuan extended his finger, and a wisp of golden Quintessential Essence appeared. His Quintessential Essence was filled with infinite sharpness.

“I’ll give it a try.” Liu Qiyue was also filled with anticipation. Amongst the disciples who were still on the mountain, Meng Chuan was the only one who had reached the Great Solar realm! This was because most Archean Mountain disciples left the mountain as Indestructible Godfiends.

“Okay.” Meng Chuan walked out of the room to the courtyard and flicked his finger.

A beam of golden light shot into the night sky. When it reached 1000 feet high, it exploded with a boom with a thought from Meng Chuan. The produced shock waves could be vaguely sensed 1000 feet away.

“Without using any Saber Intent, a mere wisp of Quintessential Essence is this powerful?” Liu Qiyue was also shocked. “If you were to unleash your full strength, you might be able to turn an area spanning a few kilometers to ruins instantly.”

“Great Solar Godfiends’ Quintessential Essence is famous for being domineering,” said Meng Chuan. “With my perfected Lightning Devastator Fiend Body and a rather robust Godfiend foundation, my Great Solar Quintessential Essence should be at least ten times stronger than ordinary Great Solar Godfiends.”

There were also geniuses at the Great Solar realm. For Xue Feng, in terms of Quintessential Essence purity, he was in no way inferior to Meng Chuan. For instance, the mountain demon was much stronger than a typical third Firmament demon monarch!

“Even when I break through to the Great Solar realm, my Quintessential Essence will still be inferior to yours,” Liu Qiyue said with a smile.

“The Phoenix Divine Body is strong due to the phoenix flames. It never relied on Quintessential Essence,” said Meng Chuan with a sigh. The penetrative power of Qiyue’s arrows and other aspects were secondary. The phoenix flames that infused her arrows were the true horror.

“But I don’t have a way to deal with your speed. If I were to fight you, I would definitely lose. I wouldn’t even be able to escape,” said Liu Qiyue. Although she could fly, it required time for her to widen the distance between them! With Meng Chuan’s terrifying speed—even if she flew into the air—Meng Chuan would be able to catch up to her in a single leap since he could jump over a kilometer high! It was too difficult to escape Meng Chuan.

“Therefore, with me protecting you, no one can hurt you,” said Meng Chuan with a smile.

...

The next night, Liu Qiyue also broke through. In fact, Liu Qiyue—who had attained Greater Mastery of the Realm of Soul for months—had made ample preparations. Thus, she successfully entered the Great Solar realm.

The duo was also filled with joy and anticipation as their departure from the mountain approached.

...

19th October, in front of the Nine Mystical Caves.

“Go in. I’ll wait for your good news,” said Liu Qiyue.

“Don’t worry. I’ll definitely be able to clear the Nine Mystical Caves,” Meng Chuan said confidently. He turned around and headed deeper into the cave.

As he advanced, an invisible force obstructed him. After passing through this barrier, he saw the vast dark-red world.

A world appearing inside a mountain. I wonder how Archean Mountain did it. As the oldest sect of the human race, Archean Mountain indeed had many mysterious places.

Meng Chuan moved forward with extreme familiarity. A moment later, he saw a familiar mountain towering hundreds of feet. The mountain began to tremble. The entire mountain completely stood up, and an enormous, ugly head grew out. It was the mountain demon.

There was an Archean Mountain mark near the mountain demon’s forehead.

“You dare to come again?” The mountain demon stared at Meng Chuan, its eyes filled with anger.

“Why wouldn’t I dare? You didn’t injure me last time,” said Meng Chuan with a smile.

This smile enraged the mountain demon. It said in a deep voice, “So you’ve become a Great Solar Godfiend. Do you think you can defeat me just because you broke through? I’ve already killed three Great Solar Godfiends. You will be the fourth.”

Meng Chuan’s gaze turned cold.

He had long guessed that such a powerful third Firmament demon monarch would’ve killed many Godfiends.

“Use any moves you have. Don’t begrudge me when I kill you later if you didn’t unleash your full strength.” Meng Chuan said coldly.

“How arrogant. Your movement technique is not bad, but that’s all. Your current speed is useless in front of me.” The mountain demon’s killing intent surged. “Die!”

As soon as it finished speaking, the mountain demon’s thick outer body disintegrated. Soon countless rocks floated in the air and revealed the mountain’s true dark-red body. It was roughly 100 feet tall. historical

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

After the rocks floated up, they shot towards Meng Chuan in an attempt to overwhelm him! These rocks were part of the mountain demon’s outer body. They were extremely hard. Furthermore, the mountain demon controlled these rocks with great skill.

Although they couldn’t compare to the self-destructive attack the mountain had used last time, the rocks were still moving at supersonic speeds.

Meng Chuan—who was bombarded by the supersonic rocks—suffered a drastic drop in speed. Even so, he was still as fast as a first Firmament demon monarch.

“Is your movement technique still useful in my domain?” The dark-red mountain demon charged over. It began moving faster as it charged into the countless rocks, heading straight for Meng Chuan.

“Oh?” Meng Chuan was shocked when he saw the dark-red mountain demon rush over with countless rocks.

The rocks spread out and enveloped an area spanning over a kilometer. This area was the mountain demon’s domain. The dark-red mountain demon flew to the center of the domain.

If Meng Chuan wanted to engage in close combat with the mountain demon, he would be surrounded by countless rocks! It would be very difficult for him to unleash his speed under such circumstances.

Clearly, the mountain demon discovered Meng Chuan’s weakness after their last exchange! The moment he attacked, the rocks on his outer body detached and formed a domain.
