[This diary recorded some experiences of True Person Wan Mu.]
[You occasionally flipped through it during your leisure time, finding it quite interesting.]
[One day, you obtained a crucial piece of information from it.]
[Thousands of years ago, the location of the last sect in the Xianwu Era, the ruins of the Commanding Fire Sect!]
In the real world, Su Xing raised an eyebrow at this.
"The three major sects of the Xianwu Era, the Five Elements Sect excelled in formations. I gained the improved Spirit Explosion Technique, the Five Elements Formation, and other key inheritances from it..."
"As for the Wan Mu Sect, it specializes in alchemy. Surely, it holds a more perfected Path of Alchemy, thousands of spiritual medicines... and the Wan Mu Determination Method!"
"Regarding the Commanding Fire Sect, it seems to focus on artifact refining... Perhaps this ruin also contains treasures I need?"
An intrigued expression appeared on Su Xing's face.
The first two sect ruins brought Su Xing considerable surprises.
What kind of surprises would the last ruin hold for Su Xing?
Thinking this, Su Xing glanced at the simulation panel with a probing look.
[The information about this last ancient sect ruin piqued your interest.]
[So, you decided to explore the Immortal Martial Era Instance.]
[Following the hints in True Person Wan Mu's diary, you painstakingly found the location of the Commanding Fire Sect ruins.]
[Unlike the previous two sects' ruins, the Commanding Fire Sect's ruin was situated in an underground cave in the Xianwu Continent. The temperature inside was extremely high, accompanied by magma fire.]
[You broke through the formation of the ruin and entered its interior.]
[It was still an ancient tomb, but the temperature around was extremely high. You released your divine sense and entered.]
[You encountered two puppets in the early stage of Void Breaking while exploring, which you easily dealt with.]
[But as you were about to reach the core of the ruin, you were blocked by a prohibition.]
[This prohibition was different from ordinary formations, requiring a certain comprehension of the Fire Origin to be perfectly unlocked.]
[Your comprehension of the Fire Origin was insufficient to perfectly break the prohibition.]
[So you chose a more violent method, One Force Breaks All Laws!]
[You raised your fist, wielding Origin Force and a sliver of the Origin of Power. The terrifying strength instantly caused the prohibition to collapse.]
[But to your surprise, once the prohibition collapsed, the core of the ruin started to collapse as well.]
[Fortunately, your cultivation level was profound, and your physical strength exceptional. You managed to escape from the ruin, but couldn't explore the core area.]
[You left the Xianwu World somewhat regretfully...]
"Hmm? It turned out to be a ruin with a self-destruct mechanism, impossible to open violently from the outside..."
Su Xing's face showed a hint of surprise.
"Maybe the Commanding Fire Sect ruins also hid some secrets and treasures?"
"Oh well... I'll find a way to open it when I have a better comprehension of the Fire Origin in the future..."
Su Xing shook his head slightly. Though he felt some regret, he wasn't overly concerned.
His gaze returned to the simulation panel.
[After leaving the Immortal Martial Era Instance, you continued secluded cultivation.]
[By the twentieth year, after your cultivation reached the late Body Integration Realm, breaking through minor realms required a century.]
[Even for you, breaking through a single layer realm without enough resources wasn't easy.]
[Due to accumulating spiritual liquid, your cultivation remained at the early stages of the seventh layer of the Body Integration Realm.]
[By the twenty-first year, you comprehended three more Sword Qi Barriers, bringing the total number to a staggering 208.]
[Yet you hadn't reached the Mahayana Level of Body-Protecting Sword Aura.]
[You continued to strive for the comprehension of Body-Protecting Sword Aura and improving your cultivation.]
[Thus, another four years passed.]
[By the twenty-fifth year, you consumed two million drops of spiritual liquid, successfully advancing to the mid-stage of the seventh layer of the Body Integration Realm.]
[Three years remained until the Demon Saint's descent.]
[So you focused on comprehending Body-Protecting Sword Aura.]
[By the twenty-eighth year, you mastered 236 Sword Qi Barriers.]
[One day, through divination, you foresaw a minor calamity to befall the Demon-Subduing Pass within seven days.] Your next journey awaits at M-V-L
[You immediately understood that the Double-pupil Demon Saint was about to descend upon this world...]
[Sure enough, the Demon Saint descended after seven days!]
[Countless demonic beast armies besieged the city, ready to destroy it.]
[You stood upon a flying sword in the sky, challenging the Demon Saint...]
[The Double-pupil Demon Saint fell into your trap. You fought fiercely, pretending to be equally matched to buy time.]
[You continued this for five years...]
[By the thirty-third year, you fought the Demon Saint annually but never slacked in your cultivation.]
[You consumed three million drops of spiritual liquid, breaking through to the late stage of the seventh layer of the Body Integration Realm in one go, only a step away from the eighth layer...]
[Your comprehension of Body-Protecting Sword Aura continued to improve.]
[After five years, you mastered 254 Sword Qi Barriers!]
[The combined power of 254 Sword Qi Barriers could rival a peak Mahayana cultivator's full strike!]
[The defensive boost from Body-Protecting Gang Qi nearly matched that of a peak Mahayana cultivator.]
[That year, the Demon Saint launched the final battle.]
[You knew the Demon Saint would discover the ruse and choose to retreat after this fight.]
[But you didn't plan to let him go, intending to kill him for real!]
[In the battle, you pretended to be vulnerable, allowing the Double-pupil Demon Saint to suppress you.]
[At the critical moment, you unleashed the power of 254 Body-Protecting Sword Qi Barriers!]
[This strike was comparable to a pinnacle Mahayana cultivator's full attack!]
[With only mid-level strength, the Double-pupil Demon Saint, despite his extraordinary bloodline and formidable physique, was instantly killed by this strike!]
