Chapter 1238: 532 Chapter 1238: 532 Yet even so, with the arrival of countless powerful beings, both human and demon, the entire Qianyuan Kingdom never once experienced a conflict. All the visiting guests greeted each other with smiles, calm and amicable.

All of this was because of the presence of the strongest being of the contemporary world, an invincible force under the heavens.

The mere existence of this powerful being forced one of the Three Major God Mountains outside the realm, the Ancient God Mountain, to seal itself away from the world for tens of thousands of years.

The banquet that day lasted until sunset before it came to an end.

…

In the Mansion.

Jiang Yuan looked at the resources piled up like mountains inside each storage ring and immediately nodded in satisfaction.

The next moment.

As his thoughts moved.

The massive resources, lavished as generous gifts from the powers of the Five Domains and Four Seas, were swiftly devoured by him, merging into his body.

Half an hour later, he had devoured all the resources.

And now, his panel floated before his eyes.

[Original Life Form]: Juvenile Stage (43.88%)
Such was his transformation.

This time, his body devoured all the resources, allowing his physique to grow significantly in an instant.

He did this because he had already thought through his next path.

That was to create a Great World within his body, equivalent to the great world of this realm.

This idea had also crossed the mind of the Heavenly Emperor.

However, in the Heavenly Emperor’s plan, it was about evolving the world within the cave to transform and ascend to a complete Great World.

Relying on the help of myriad immortals from the upper realm to aid his Cultivation, enabling him to completely master the Three Thousand Great Dao, and then sacrifice All Spirits and all beings known as immortals.

To transform these existences into pure energy for the expansion and inflation of his world.

But in Jiang Yuan’s view, he was different.

He had combined two paths into one, forging a new path, and had long since freed himself from the influence of the Heavenly Emperor, stepping into the True Spirit Realm.

His next step, too, was to master the Three Thousand Great Dao.

Then, using his physical body as the world’s barrier, to open up a Great Universe.

A Great Universe that encompasses the Three Thousand Great Dao can be called a grand world.

As long as he attained this step, he would naturally enter the Transcendence Realm.

The world created during the banquet would then evolve into a minor world within the Great World, but of a higher position level.

Just like the human race and the Immortal World.

As for the micro-worlds within the cells, opened up by the red Innate Energy Luck and the Suppression True Body–108 trillion of them–these are akin to the worlds as numerous as the grains of sand, known as minor thousand worlds.

After making this decision, the percentage progress bar behind the True Spirit Realm on his panel instantly disappeared.

[Realm]: True Spirit Realm (Unknown)
Now only this display remained.

For this reason, Jiang Yuan chose to use the resources he had obtained this time upon this body.

The transformation of the Original Life Form would also bring him a tremendous enhancement in strength.

Afterward, Jiang Yuan looked further down his panel.

[Great Dao]: Time Great Dao (96.13%) Space Great Dao (98.36%)…

[Fate Energy Power]: 67,543 strands.

The path of time, further advanced.

And not much gap remained from surpassing the Space Great Dao.

After being baptized by the mysterious substance from the outside world last time, with the enhancement of his life essence, Jiang Yuan also felt that his efficiency in mastering the Three Thousand Great Dao had further increased.

Then, without further ado, Jiang Yuan continued his seclusion, preparing in one breath to take his Time Great Dao to a level, also known as Half-step Transcendence Realm.

In his view, this was the fastest way to enhance his own strength.

…

Time flew swiftly by.

In the blink of an eye, another two months had passed.

Following the exchange at Jiang Yuan’s banquet, the Five Domains and Four Seas had now fallen into a state of tranquility.

Only the Western Wilderness still had some turmoil; after being completely annexed by the human race, many matters required resolution.

As for the other Four Domains and Four Seas, they appeared exceptionally peaceful.

In this era, all disturbances had become meaningless.

The entire world was now merely attentive to the will of one man.

The Five Domains and Four Seas had also rarely entered a peaceful era, partaking in a time of recuperation and breeding.

That day.

Atop the Time River.

Jiang Yuan took a step out.

Boom—-
The entire surface of the river stirred up surging waves thousands of feet high.

Jiang Yuan’s right foot slowly lifted off the surface of the river.

At this moment, from the voidness above his head, endless mysterious substances cascaded down, and Jiang Yuan silently experienced the baptism of these mysterious substances.

In this place, there were no years or months in time.

Not knowing how much time had passed, the baptism ended, and Jiang Yuan once again opened his eyes.

At this moment, he felt that his stature had grown further in comparison to the Time River.

The grey and foggy shadow at the distant end of his vision, which he had seen before, was now completely clear.

The entire surface of the Time River was extraordinarily broad.

At the end of the river’s surface was a place filled with endless darkness and grey mist.

“The riverbank, is it what the outside world calls the boundless Chaos Sea?” Jiang Yuan murmured.

Then he looked down at his feet.

His right foot easily lifted from below the surface of the water, stepping onto the surface of the river.

However, his left foot remained bound under the surface of the river, immobile no matter how much strength he used.

After a brief attempt, Jiang Yuan immediately gave up.

From his previous brute force attempts, he knew that transcending through strength was indeed feasible.

But his current strength was not enough to accomplish this.

To transcend through strength!

Now he was only a half-step away from what was known as transcendence.

As soon as his remaining left foot stepped out of the surface of the Time River, he would completely step into transcendence and achieve the Transcendence Realm.

From then on, he could be free from the constraints of this world.

His present mastery in the Dao of Time could be considered at the Half-step Transcendence Realm, equivalent to the level reached by the Heavenly Emperor back then.

Having reached this level, Jiang Yuan felt much more at ease in his heart.

If he was not inferior to that Heavenly Emperor in terms of life level, then naturally there wouldn’t be much difference in strength either.

This he was very confident about.

Having achieved this level of life and undergoing the baptism of mysterious substances from the outside world, his life level was no weaker than that of the Heavenly Emperor, as they existed on the same level.

Both were Half-step Transcenders.

As for Cultivation Realm, Jiang Yuan believed that the True Spirit Realm might not be as high as the Heavenly Lord’s realm.

But with other enhancements, his strength would surely not be weaker than a Heavenly Lord’s.

Therefore, Jiang Yuan was very confident in his heart.

Afterward, he steadied his mind and spirit.

His gaze turned to the upper reaches of the Time River.

Now he could reverse the flow of the Time River with ease, glimpse into the history of the past, and even make local changes.

But after only a brief consideration, he discarded the thought.

Because within the time of the Ancient Times, there existed that Heavenly Emperor.

If he were to reverse the flow of the Time River to that period when the Heavenly Emperor existed, there was no guarantee he wouldn’t be detected by him.

Even though Jiang Yuan had now concealed his timeline, preventing any alterations to his own history,
it was still uncertain whether the gates of the Immortal World wouldn’t suddenly open at this time point.

After all, the so-called Immortal World was the Cave Heaven World of that Heavenly Emperor.

Whether the gates would open or not, it all depended on a single thought from that Heavenly Emperor.

Under the current circumstances, Jiang Yuan was not yet ready to confront this Heavenly Emperor.

He still had other ideas in his mind.

Moreover, there were still many areas where he could enhance his strength, and he wouldn’t face the Heavenly Emperor until he was fully prepared.

With just a bit more time, he would have enough confidence to suppress that Heavenly Emperor.

The next moment.

His figure disappeared from the surface of the Time River.

Seated cross-legged in the courtyard, he fell into deep thought.

[Realm]: True Spirit Realm (Unknown)
Quietly gazing at this entry on the panel, he sank into deep contemplation.

“No, something’s not right!”

He murmured to himself.

Then he continued speaking to himself, “After the True Spirit Realm, there should be another realm! That realm corresponds to the Heavenly Lord. After reaching that realm, one should proceed to create a Great World, a Grand World.”

“My current approach is undoubtedly an attempt to achieve success in one step, skipping over the intermediary process.”

“No, this is all wrong!”

Suddenly, he closed his eyes slightly.

“Let’s deduce again for now, where exactly the path of the next realm lies!”

“Cultivation needs to be done step by step, one rung at a time, to be error-free!”

“A castle in the air will inevitably collapse one day!”

Recalling this, Jiang Yuan instantly cut off stray thoughts in his mind, returning his mental state to one as tranquil as a still ancient well.
