Seasons changed, heaven and earth shifted, and 30 years passed by in the blink of an eye.
30 years may be a great amount of ti in the mortal world, but for powerful Immortal Cultivators, it was no more than a single cultivation session.
However, it didn’t an that any major events did not happen during this ti period. Many things occurred during this period of ti.
The reinforcents from the Qingyun Sword Sect sent by Mo Yuxin arrived and helped the Thousand Petals Hall to repel the demonic cultivators, but unfortunately, the powerful ones escaped while the weak ones killed themselves by using special ans, and did not reveal any information about who was behind them.
They also were unable to find the location of Liu Yufang, and had no choice but to temporarily give up until the powers behind the demonic cultivators showed themselves. But they were certain that the demonic cultivators won’t do anything to him as the possessor of the Heavenly Spiritual Root.
Though they didn’t stop the search for him and continued looking in hopes of finding him.
Yan Zhangwei and Yun Ping both entered the Ninth Stage of Acquired Realm, only a step away from breaking through to the Innate Realm and transitioning the Yan Immortal Dynasty into a Innate Realm power once again.
The demonic cultivators still occasionally attacked Innate Realm and below factions, but all the powers at the Golden Core Realm and above did not make a move, contemplating whether there was a big hand behind all of this.
The Qingyun Sword Sect and many Void Refinent Realm forces planted spies all over the Qingyun Region, trying to figure out the motive of the demonic cultivators and their background.
On the other hand, the Eternal Peak had beco an industrial giant among all Acquired Realm and below factions, having disciples proficient in all sorts of side professions of cultivators, from Talisman Refining to Alchemy, from Array Formations to Artifact Refining, the disciples of the Eternal Peak seed to know everything.
Every single one of them possessed decent skills in at least one of the few secondary professions of cultivators that were great for making money in the cultivation world. But along with that, they also did things such as Spirit Farming, Cooking with special ingredients suitable for cultivators, cleaning the vast land of the Eternal Peak etcetera.
The Eternal Peak had invested a lot into this, so the returns were obviously great too. Despite the Eternal Peak having its doors closed to the outside world and not accepting any more disciples for the ti being, there were tens of thousands of disciples inside, and it was only natural that they found Dao Companions who would accompany them on their path ahead.
Quite a lot of them already had children, with most of them possessing aptitude for cultivation because of their parents being cultivators combining the Providence and other benefits of being intertwined with the Eternal Peak.
While the ones who did not have cultivation potential were given enough wealth that would last them for a lifeti and sent to the mortal world by their parents.
But at the sa ti, quite a few old cultivators who had been rogue cultivators previously and only joined the Eternal Peak in the later years of their life also passed away every year as they could not utilize the benefits of the Eternal Peak and the resources it provided because of their old age.
So the number of disciples within the Eternal Peak was still increasing, albeit at a very slow rate.
Aside from that, the annual revenue of the Eternal Peak had increased greatly, with a profit of 1,200 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones and around 20,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones every year. Cutting off all extra and unexpected expenses, there were still more than 500 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones and thousands of Low-Grade Spirit Stones left.
The profit was still continously increasing, and so was the average cultivation and skill level of the disciples.
There were nearly 1,500 Foundation Establishnt Realm disciples, while the number of Acupoint Opening Stage disciples had decreased significantly, dropping down to barely around a thousand.
The rest, while still being in the Qi Condensation Realm, were still developing rapidly, and most of them were in the later stages of Qi Condensation Realm, many preparing to breakthrough to the Foundation Establishnt.
Yan Jingfei was in the midst of her seclusion to breakthrough to the Innate Realm, while Tian Yunchen was also preparing to enter seclusion to finally breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm.
Lu Qingfeng’s cultivation had increased trendously during this period of ti too, jumping from the Second Stage of Foundation Establishnt Realm to the Eighth Stage. In at most 3 more years, he would breakthrough to the Ninth Stage of Foundation Establishnt Realm.
All in all, everything was going smoothly for the Eternal Peak and its people.
At this mont, in Tian Yongheng’s cave abode.
Clasping his hands together, he stretched them out slightly, his gaze turning to look at the floating screen in front of him displaying various things.
[Na: Tian Yongheng.]
[Race: Mortal]
[Lifespan: 159/4,466]
[Cultivation: Ninth Stage of Innate Realm.]
[Constitution: Five-Elental Divine Spiritual Physique.]
[Bloodline: Jade Pure Bloodline (Descendant of the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning).]
[Innate Talent(s): Sword Heart, Primordial ridians and Primordial Bones.]
Yes, he had broken through to the Ninth Stage of Innate Realm!
Aside from continously upgrading his spells and techniques to his current level and cultivating, he also used to test his strength out against the people in the Simulation Battle Trial.
The most powerful existences in the Simulation Battle Trial right now were both Chi Yuwen and Yao Lan. Tian Yongheng continued to fight against the two of them, then tens of them, and the last ti he fought when he was at the Eighth Stage of Innate Realm having upgraded all his techniques to his current level.
At that ti, he directly fought against thousands of Chi Yuwen and Yao Lan, and defeated them without using any of his ultimate trump cards like the Heaven Earth Quintessential Sword Finger or the Immortal Slaying Stellar Sword Formation.
He didn’t even use the Primal Dao Sword, yet still won in less than 3 breaths of ti.
Now, having broken through to the Ninth Stage of Innate Realm, he was even more confident in himself.
He had also cultivated the Immortal Slaying Stellar Sword Formation with the Sword Dao, and even used it in one of the Simulations. It was only at that ti did he realize what kind of terrifying power this Sword Formation possessed.
It was actually on the sa level as that of his Heaven Earth Quintessential Sword Finger!
That ti, a dangerous idea appeared in his mind.
If he could combine this spell and Divine Power together, what kind of power would it hold?
But he quickly dismissed that idea, first, because his cultivation was too low, and second, he did not even know how would he do that. He definitely needed a deeper understanding of both the spell and the Divine Power, and also the Sword Dao, so he put that thought aside for now.
At this mont, using his Divine Sense, he probed inside of his Sea of Consciousness only to discover a bright, golden light like thing, which did not have a physical form, bathing in his abundant Spiritual Energy resting in the midst of his Sea of Consciousness.
It was his soul. In fact, he had been able to see it through his Divine Sense from the mont he entered the Foundation Establishnt Realm back then, but at that ti, his soul used to float around in his Sea of Consciousness, unlike now, when it was sitting still and bathing in his Spiritual Energy.
This was the process of preparing to form the Golden Core, which was initiated right from the First Stage of Innate Realm. The process of nourishing the soul with Spiritual Energy, and trying to understand the worldly rules.
To deepen one’s understanding, one had to observe the changes between heaven and earth over the course of many years, exactly what Tian Yongheng had been doing for the past 30 years.
After breaking through every minor realm, he would comprehend the shifting of heaven and earth, the changes of the four seasons, and the passing of ti. He would observe all these things sitting atop the Eternal Peak in varying ti periods, sotis 2 years, sotis 6 months and sotis a year.
If the past him only cultivated mindlessly and only knew how to use his powers, the current him had a lot of wisdom in his eyes which showed that he had been alive for countless years and seen many things, he now was the essence of his powers, which made him significantly stronger.
Standing up, he went out of his cave abode and found a spot to sit, preparing to comprehend the heaven and earth.
