Several days passed by uneventfully.
"Looks like Brandon Longwind is a man of his word!"
Ian Song muttered to himself. For the past few days, he had been on guard in case Brandon Longwind tried to break into Greenvine City again, but after several days of vigilance without any sign, and personally checking the surroundings to confirm there was no trace of Brandon, he was certain the man had left.
Although their clash with Brandon Longwind was brief that day,
he could still sense a slight gap between himself and Brandon. If he didn't use the World-Cleaving Axe, he might not be able to win.
In recent years, he'd been focused on learning pill-dao and formation-dao, so he'd neglected his own cultivation realm.
Since arriving in Greenvine City, he'd been busy converting the Chaos Aura within his body.
Now, all the Chaos Aura in his body had been completely transformed into Chaos Origin Force.
With a thought,
Chaos Origin Force began to circulate, tempering his body and soul.
One month later.
His body and soul had reached their limits, so Ian decided to break through to mid-stage Profound Immortal.
Thanks to the power of his Pangu Bloodline, he faced almost no bottlenecks in cultivation—he didn’t need to worry about his realm, nor did he have to deliberately comprehend so-called heaven’s Dao.
As long as his internal energy was sufficient, he could break through whenever he wanted.
He swallowed three top-grade Law Pills in a row—just like that, one hundred and fifty billion immortal stones were gone.
As the pills entered his stomach, they turned into surging medicinal power. The moment he activated his cultivation art, all that power was converted into Law power and immortal yuan force, merging into his immortal yuan and Law Sigils.
"Boom!"
It was as if thunder exploded inside his body.
Then, all eleven types of Law power within the city surged toward him, pouring into his body.
"What a commotion! That’s Little Junior Brother cultivating again!"
Feeling the violent surge of Law power in the heavens and earth, Stuart Situ, Miles Gongsun, Jenny Gu, Kathy Wenren, and the others couldn’t help but gasp.
"Eleven types of Law power—he’s only early-stage Profound Immortal, but he’s already condensed eleven Law Sigils. No wonder his combat strength rivals Ancestral Immortals!"
The next moment, Stuart Situ identified all eleven Laws in the void, his expression stunned.
"He’s a monster. You really can’t judge him by normal standards!"
Miles Gongsun said.
"He’s about to break through to mid-stage Profound Immortal. Once he does, even first-tier Ancestral Immortals might not be a match for him!" Henry Wang exclaimed.
A few days later.
The turbulent Law power in the world calmed down, and Ian Song formally broke through to mid-stage Profound Immortal. All the Law Sigils in his body underwent a mysterious transformation.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother, on breaking through to mid-stage Profound Immortal!"
All six senior brothers and sisters came to offer their congratulations.
"Just luck!" Ian Song said modestly.
"Humblebrag!"
Kathy Wenren curled her lips.
A few days later.
Victor Sima, helm master of the Gale Division, arrived once again, bringing good news.
Previously, Ian had asked the Gale Division to help search for his master, Elder Gideon Skyreach. This time, Victor brought news of Elder Gideon.
Thousandmount Town is one of eight towns under the jurisdiction of Qianwild City, on the outskirts of more than three thousand Barbarian Cities.
The immortal essence here is extremely thin. It’s one of the most barren areas in the Barbarian Wastes, and very few Immortals are willing to settle here. Even those who ascend and arrive in this place will try to leave as soon as they gain enough strength.
Not only is immortal essence thin, but resources are also extremely scarce. Even Immortal Beasts avoid lingering here, and the herbs that grow are all low-grade.
So, for Immortals living here, earning immortal stones is truly difficult.
Even worse, many time-space rifts exist in this region, and all sorts of vicious beasts and monsters frequently burst out from them.
These beasts and monsters from the rifts are exceptionally fierce. They all share one trait: an appetite for Immortals. Just one can cause hundreds or even thousands of deaths.
As a result, in Qianwild City and its eight towns, the total Immortal population is only about three hundred thousand.
Even the city lord of Qianwild City is only a late-stage peak Earth Immortal.
The reason this place is mentioned—
—is because Elder Gideon Skyreach and two others ascended here.
After learning from Victor Sima that his master was in Thousandmount Town, Ian hurried there with Elder Faye Moon, Jasmine Jiang, and Lana Gale.
Now, thanks to Ian’s help, all three have reached the Profound Immortal realm. But according to Victor Sima, Elder Gideon Skyreach is only mid-stage Human Immortal.
As for Elder Nathan Chen and Elder Bloodsun, who ascended to the Immortal World together with him—
Three years ago, a monster appeared near Thousandmount Town. In the battle to slay it, the town suffered heavy casualties: Elder Nathan Chen fell, and Elder Bloodsun was gravely wounded and still hasn’t recovered.
