#1991 - Half-step True God

Jun Wuxie disposed of the corpses of the three Wu family elders and refined the Divine Spirit Boat on the spot.

He and Jing Ya's avatar boarded the Divine Spirit Boat and set sail.

The Divine Spirit Boat soared into the clouds, arriving above the cloud layer, and then expanded, breaking through the clouds with the wind.

Jing Ya's avatar personally operated the boat, planning the route.

"I'm going to cultivate inside the Eight-Nine Mysterious Palace. If the Divine Spirit Boat reaches the vicinity of the Prefectural City and I haven't come out yet, have the Divine Spirit Boat stop and wait for me."

"Does my husband want to enter the Prefectural City?"

Jing Ya's avatar was somewhat surprised.

Jun Wuxie nodded and said, "Of course. Since we're passing by, we might as well convert the Wu family, as well as the garrison in the Prefectural City and other forces supporting Prince Lanling's mansion.

On the way to the Imperial Capital, we'll convert every city we encounter, so we can increase our power."

"That's a good idea. How could I forget my husband's Scripture of Salvation?"

"I'm going to the Eight-Nine Mysterious Palace."

After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he disappeared on the spot, leaving a small, square, cyan bronze palace on the deck.

Jing Ya's avatar stepped forward, picked up the bronze palace, and examined it carefully, then tapped the bronze palace a few times with her slender fingers.

"Bullying me, I'll knock you, you bad husband~"

After she said that, she pursed her lips and smiled.

… …

After entering the Eight-Nine Mysterious Palace, Jun Wuxie came to a space alone, set up a time barrier, and began to refine the mid-grade special Divine Fruit of the Third Rank.

There were a total of six fruits. He took four of them and ate all four fruits in one go.

The pulp melted in his mouth, the juice was fragrant, flowing down his esophagus into his body, continuously generating majestic divine essence.

In an instant, the majestic essence impacted his meridians, causing them to ache.

He circulated the Primordial Golden Body Technique and began to cultivate.

He guided the divine essence to temper his limbs, internal organs, bones, meridians, and flesh, and then merged it into the Cave Heaven, and then, through the Millstone of Tribulation, poured it into the Sea of Stars, condensing stars.

At the same time, he also refined dark energy, synchronizing and strengthening the ink-colored Sea of Stars.

Time passed quickly in the time barrier during cultivation.

Every day, his strength was improving, and his realm was steadily rising.

Every inch of his skin flowed with golden light, overflowing with a faint golden glow, and there was always a sound like a rushing river inside his body.

… …

Outside the Eight-Nine Mysterious Palace, on the deck of the Divine Spirit Boat, Jing Ya's avatar sat at the table, supporting her chin with one hand, boredly looking at the vast sea of clouds.

Her gaze was a little lost, not knowing what she was thinking.

It's really boring.

She had never had this feeling before.

As the Heavenly Dao, existing for tens of thousands of years, how long that was.

She never felt that time was a torment.

For her, she never knew what boredom was.

But now, this feeling invaded her, making her feel lonely and empty, with a sense of emptiness in her heart.

Without the man she wanted to see every minute and every second by her side, it seemed that the whole world and life had lost their color.

She knew that she was deeply poisoned by love, but she enjoyed it, didn't want to withdraw, and only wanted to sink forever.

Even if she felt particularly lonely and missed him when he wasn't by her side, as long as she thought of him in her mind, in addition to the torment of loneliness and longing, there was also the tenderness and happiness that melted her whole heart.

Missing is a kind of torment, but at the same time, there is a happiness that makes people indulge in this torment.

"Perhaps this is the so-called pain and happiness in the world."

Jing Ya's avatar murmured, her eyes withdrawing from the vast sea of clouds, looking at the small bronze palace in front of her, and tapping it lightly with her slender fingers, "Husband, do you know that I'm missing you?

It's all because of you that I'm about to lose myself.

The intention of the mortal world is so difficult to extricate myself from.

But I am willing to do so.

You say, am I too deeply poisoned and beyond cure?

But even if there is medicine to cure it, I don't want it.

Because you are my best medicine. As long as I have you, everything is so wonderful, and the future is always full of longing and yearning… …"

… …

The outside world passed day by day.

The Divine Spirit Boat traveled on the clouds, flying over thousands of mountains and crossing great rivers.

It was getting closer and closer to Fengchi Prefecture.

"Isn't my husband coming out of seclusion yet?"

For Jing Ya's avatar, who was in the midst of passionate love, a short ten days or so felt as long and unbearable as several epochs.

The sky was full of clouds surging in the wind, magnificent and spectacular.

But such beautiful scenery was boring to her.

There was no beautiful scenery in her eyes, only the small bronze palace in front of her.

Every moment, she was looking forward to the person she missed in her heart coming out of this small bronze palace.

She wanted to go to the Eight-Nine Mysterious Palace to see him.

But she found that she couldn't get in at all.

This artifact was actually higher than the Great Emperor level, which made her feel helpless and could only wait silently.

At this moment, Jun Wuxie, who had broken through the realm some time ago and was heading towards the realm of True God, would probably be speechless if he knew her thoughts.

He had completely turned a Heavenly Dao that had existed for tens of thousands of years into a little woman who was immersed in love.

These days, with the effect of the mid-grade special Divine Fruit of the Third Rank, and more than a hundred days of practice in the time barrier, he not only broke through to the Half-Step True God Realm, but also went further.

However, the essence quality of the mid-grade special Divine Fruit of the Third Rank was ultimately limited and could not support him to completely break through to the True God Realm.

What he could do was to try to cultivate the current realm more perfectly and get closer to the True God Realm.

In this way, more than ten days passed in the time barrier.

The divine essence of the four mid-grade special Divine Fruits of the Third Rank was completely exhausted.

His realm was infinitely close to the True God Realm.

At this point, he stopped.

The resources could not support him to break through to the True God, and even if he continued to refine the remaining two divine fruits, he would not be able to improve his cultivation at all, and would only be wasting resources.

Such rare resources should not be wasted, but should be reserved for the women around him to use in the future.

"In the current realm, the Heavenly God barrier still cannot be completely penetrated, and the suppression on me is still very great.

However, it is much stronger than before the breakthrough. At least I can face a strong person who has just entered the Heavenly God Realm for a few moves."

Jun Wuxie withdrew from cultivation, opened his eyes, stretched his muscles, and felt the majestic divine power and vigorous life blood energy in his body, and felt incomparably comfortable in every cell of his body.

In the space-time barrier, the original scene was only a shallow grass cover.

Now it was a dense grass, and the grass grew taller than people, surrounding and covering him completely.

This was the result of the golden glow of life overflowing from him these days.

Even dead wood could be quickly rejuvenated, let alone these shallow grasses that already possessed vitality.

"Well, it's been more than a hundred days, about half a month outside, and it should be relatively close to Fengchi Prefecture.

Yan Yu must be very bored being alone outside these days."

He couldn't help but mutter to himself, after all, their current situation was still in the midst of passionate love for Yan Yu.

She had just tasted the sweetness of mutual love in the world, and even as a Heavenly Dao, she would probably feel somewhat unaccustomed to the sudden separation and feel a sense of emptiness.

Getting up, removing the time barrier, Jun Wuxie left the Eight-Nine Mysterious Palace.

The moment his figure appeared on the deck, Jing Ya's avatar, who was silently looking at the small bronze palace, suddenly raised her head.

Immediately, she suddenly got up, ran towards him, threw herself into his arms, and hugged him tightly.

Jun Wuxie was slightly startled.

The woman in his arms no longer had the majesty of the Heavenly Dao, but was completely a little wife who was痴痴waiting for her husband to return.

"Missed me?"

Jun Wuxie lowered his head slightly, his gentle eyes with a hint of a smile.

Jing Ya's avatar changed her usual mature temperament and charm, shaking her face playfully and saying with a puffed-up face: "Missed~"

But her eyes were full of happy smiles.

Her eyes and the micro-expressions on her alluring fairy face were particularly sweet, so sweet that Jun Wuxie felt his heart酥了.

Jun Wuxie lowered his head and kissed her charming red lips. Just as he withdrew, he saw her closing her eyes and sending her seductive red lips forward.

He couldn't help but chuckle. She hadn't had enough and was asking him for a kiss.

… …

Two days later, a magnificent city appeared in sight.

Its scale was more than dozens of times larger than Pingnan County, which showed how many creatures of various races lived inside.

They stopped the Divine Spirit Boat in the mountains outside the city, and then hid their figures and entered the city.

The city was very lively, with busy traffic, shops lined up, all kinds of facilities were very complete, and there were also various entertainment venues.

Through the information obtained from the sea of consciousness of the Wu family, they went all the way towards the Wu family.

Because he used the Little Void Art, no one noticed him and Jing Ya's avatar.

In this way, they entered the Wu family mansion.

The head of the Wu family and the high-level executives were discussing matters in the council hall.

Jun Wuxie took a look and went to the depths of their family's forbidden area.

After arriving at the forbidden area, he sensed more than a dozen breaths in a cave inside.

There were more than a dozen old powerhouses at the True God Extreme Heavenly Position inside.

These powerhouses had been in the True God Extreme Heavenly Position for a long time, and all of them had cultivated this Heavenly Position to the extreme, which was much stronger than the average True God Extreme Heavenly Position.

The entrance of the cave was covered with vines, hanging down from the mountain wall above, covering the entrance of the cave.

He and Jing Ya entered the cave directly, and almost at the same time used blood energy to form a barrier, sealing the cave.

"Who?"

When they came in, they moved the vines, and the subtle fluctuations alarmed the powerhouses inside.

More than a dozen powerful breaths swept over like a tide, with coldness and killing intent.

Jun Wuxie did not respond, directly showed his figure, and rushed to the end of the passage at the fastest speed, entering a spacious hall.

Around the main hall, there were more than a dozen high platforms with steps, each with a large prayer mat, and people were sitting on them.

The eyes of the people on the prayer mats flashed with divine light as they stared at him and Jing Ya's avatar, and more than a dozen fierce killing intents locked them firmly in place.

"We don't care who you are, where you come from, or what background you have.

Infiltrating my Wu family and running to the forbidden area is a death wish."

One of the old men said, flicking his sleeve, a wave of true energy rippled, divine laws permeated, and several weapons resembling triangular cones pierced through the air, emitting sharp sounds, extremely fast, like fleeting shadows.

"To tell you the truth, I've come here to take you as servants."

Jun Wuxie ignored their attacks, put his hands together, and Buddhist golden light bloomed, rich Buddhist charm spreading out.

Ding—

The weapons that pierced through the air suddenly stopped about half a meter in front of him, and amidst the overflowing golden light, they were blocked.

The several weapons trembled constantly, and large swaths of divine law runes collapsed.

This scene shocked the old men in the ancient hall.

At the same time, the arrogant words of the person who came also made them burn with anger.

How arrogant, boasting shamelessly, daring to say he came to take them as servants, it's simply the biggest joke in the world!

"We old men want to see what you are relying on to be so arrogant.

Today, we will make you wish you were dead!"

More than a dozen old men almost simultaneously rushed from the prayer mats to the center of the hall, launching a fierce attack on Jun Wuxie together.

The sound of chanting suddenly rang out, echoing in the hall.

In an instant, the bodies of more than a dozen old men shook violently, and they felt a powerful will invade their sea of consciousness, causing them to feel severe pain in their brains.

"Stop him!"

That will was quite strange, actually trying to erase part of their will.

They knew that this divine ability could not be underestimated and must be interrupted immediately.

Enduring the severe pain in their brains, they launched successive attacks.

However, circles of golden energy spread out from the other party's body, obliterating all their divine ability secret techniques, making it impossible to get close to him.

Soon, they could no longer launch attacks in the severe pain, rolled on the ground with their heads in their hands, and let out unwilling roars and heart-wrenching screams.

This process lasted for half an hour, and the old men of the Wu family all stopped struggling, the pain on their faces disappeared, and piety appeared in their eyes, and the whole person became peaceful, with a gentle aura.

They got up, knelt respectfully on the ground, extremely devout, worshiping Jun Wuxie as if they were pilgrims.

"Now, you immediately summon the family management, and have them all come here."

"Yes, Master."

More than a dozen old men responded in unison.

Jun Wuxie removed the barrier at the entrance of the cave, and someone among these old men immediately shouted outwards.

The voice was like thunder, resounding throughout the Wu family's territory.

The high-level members who were discussing matters in the council hall were all taken aback.

The ancestors suddenly summoned them and others, could it be that there was something urgent?

Without thinking too much, they walked out of the hall.

Soon, the family's other management, regardless of level, even grassroots management, came.

Before long, thousands of Wu family management members arrived at the forbidden area in a mighty manner.

They entered the cave one after another.

Jun Wuxie and Jing Ya's avatar had already hidden.

"Venerable Ancestors, I wonder why you suddenly summoned us and others?"

After waiting for everyone to come in, the head of the Wu family respectfully saluted the ancestors, and then asked.

"Let you come here to be my devout believers."

A cold voice came from the entrance of the main hall behind them.

Instantly, thousands of people turned their heads together, their pupils contracted, and their eyes revealed cold light.

"Who are you, why are you in my clan's forbidden area?"

"Ancestors, who are these two people?"

However, Jun Wuxie did not respond, and the Wu family ancestors did not respond either.

The only sound that responded to them was the chanting of the Scripture of Salvation.

Instantly, there was a painful scream in the hall, mixed with the angry roar of a True God Extreme Heavenly Position powerhouse.

They rushed towards Jun Wuxie frantically, trying to interrupt his chanting.

But it was useless at all, they couldn't get close to him.

Soon, they gave up struggling, their aura calmed down, and there was piety in their eyes.

After converting these management members, Jun Wuxie asked the head of the Wu family and others to call the rest of the family.

Because the space in the main hall was limited, and the Wu family had hundreds of thousands of people, it couldn't fit here at all.

Therefore, they decided to have the clansmen come here in batches, tens of thousands of people each time.

In this way, it went extremely smoothly, and in just one day, Jun Wuxie converted the entire Wu family, from top to bottom.

Next, he asked the Wu family to tell him about the forces in the city loyal to King Lanling.

After being converted, the head of the Wu family regarded him as the only faith, and naturally knew everything and said everything.

"Remember, don't let King Lanling suspect, don't let others see any too abnormal behavior.

Stay dormant here, and I will give you orders when I need you in the future."

"The Wu family, from top to bottom, respectfully obeys Master's decree!"

They knelt on the ground together, kneeling to see him off.

Next, Jun Wuxie went to several other families and sects in the city one after another, using the same method to convert all three forces.

Finally, he and Jing Ya's avatar went to the military camp, also using a similar method to first convert the generals in the army.

Then, the generals were asked to gather the army in batches, converting all the millions of troops in Fengchi County.

Having done all this, he had been in Fengchi County City for several days.

There were more than a dozen major forces in Fengchi County City, the Wu family was considered a relatively strong one, and the other three forces were also relatively strong.

Of course, the garrison was the strongest.

The remaining forces had not completely surrendered to King Lanling's府, so he did not go to convert them.

"Going to Lanling Imperial Capital this time, we have only traveled a third of the journey.

I think we can encounter a few more county cities along the way."

Riding the Divine Spirit Boat and returning to the clouds, Jun Wuxie stood on the deck, looking at the distant sky, with a faint smile on his face.

Back then, in the ancient tomb in Daggan Border City, he was fortunate to have asked the Supreme Holy Buddha for the Scripture of Salvation.

This divine ability is really easy to use.

Especially when paired with his powerful will, the effect has been increased many times over.

If it were in the hands of others, even the World Honored One Demon Buddha who created this method, if he were in this realm, it would be impossible to have such power and effect.

Because when the World Honored One Demon Buddha was in the God Realm, it was impossible for him to have such a powerful will as he does now, it was too far off.

This divine ability was originally used to forcibly convert with will, so the stronger the will of the divine ability user, the more heaven-defying the effect.
