"What does that mean?!"
In Qin Zheng’s eyes, a sharp light suddenly appeared.
The brief two sentences spoken by the young man in white carried an immense amount of information!
Above Heavenly Immortals, the Taiyi Realm!
So, the realm above Heavenly Immortals is called the Taiyi Realm!
However, it seemed from the young man’s words that stepping onto this realm is currently quite difficult?
thoughts surged in Qin Zheng’s mind.
The young man in white then murmured softly before coming back to his senses and looking at Qin Zheng again.
"Do you know about tides?"
Qin Zheng’s eyes slightly narrowed, guessing somewhat, and responded, "Tides, influenced by external forces, exhibit a cyclical ebb and flow."
The young man in white nodded and then continued, "The natural environment is like the tides; when it’s high tide, it’s a prosperous era for cultivation."
"But when it’s low tide, it’s the great disaster of dharma’s decline, affecting all cultivators!"
"Since the Middle Ages, our world has been in the process of ebbing."
"It’s becoming increasingly difficult to cultivate, and the highest attainable realms are also getting lower and lower."
At this point, the young man in white paused slightly, then added, "In our era, there was still testimony of the Taiyi.
"But in your era, a Heavenly Immortal should be the limit.
"How could there be a Taiyi emerging?"
"Could it be that the tide’s ebbing has ended, and we are entering a period of rising tide?
"Or is it that... Wu Qingping is truly so powerful as to break the natural rules, and in this impossible era for attesting to Taiyi, he forcefully attested to it?"
The young man in white kept talking.
And with his words, more information came to Qin Zheng.
Middle Ages... Tide’s ebb... Rules...
So, all changes began during what is referred to as the Middle Ages.
Since then, cultivation has become increasingly difficult, and now it’s even impossible for someone to reach the Taiyi level.
Qin Zheng arranged these pieces of information.
The young man’s forehead suddenly relaxed.
A hint of self-mockery appeared on his face, then he said, "I’m just a remnant soul who died countless ages ago.
"Even if the tide of the world ends and enters a rising period again, it makes no difference to me.
"I’m still bound to stay inside this eternal sunless tower."
Afterward, he looked at Qin Zheng and said, "Since the great destruction, among the humans and demons who have entered the Lingxu Realm, your talents rank among the top two!"
"I know that the Demon Race is in power now. It’s a pity I can’t do much. I’ll give you a bit more rewards for this challenge."
"This stream of Nine Heavens Immortal Qi should be sufficient to make your foundation much more solid."
Having said this, the young man in white waved his hand grandly.
the sandy yellow dust around Qin Zheng transformed into the purest Nine Heavens Immortal Qi, rushing into Qin Zheng’s body like a surging tide.
This was an extremely high-quality Immortal Qi, far surpassing Immortal Spirit Qi!
At that moment, Qin Zheng felt the sound of the Dao ringing in his ears, instantly calming him and seemingly entering a state of enlightenment.
The Tree of Dao inside his Inner Heaven and Earth, like spotting nourishment, shook wildly, emitting a longing emotion.
In Qin Zheng’s body, the Nine Heavens Immortal Qi flowed throughout, ultimately streaming into his Inner Heaven and Earth.
The Tree of Dao glowed.
Then, under the nourishment of the rushing Nine Heavens Immortal Qi, it grew at a visibly rapid pace!
At the same time, Qin Zheng’s Inner Heaven and Earth, along with the growth of the Tree of Dao, expanded swiftly amid the thunderous noise.
The figure of the young man in white gradually became transparent and was about to disappear.
But in the last moment, he spoke, "My name is Bai Yu, what is your name?"
Even as Qin Zheng diligently monitored the outside world, he immediately replied, "Qin Zheng!"
Bai Yu smiled, nodded,
and then completely vanished in front of Qin Zheng.
And at that moment, Qin Zheng’s mind fully immersed itself in his own elevation and transformation.
It felt like an instant, yet also like ten thousand years had passed.
When the Tree of Dao absorbed the last wisps of the Nine Heavens Immortal Qi and transformed into a towering tree, the enhancement was finally complete.
Qin Zheng paid attention to his Inner Heaven and Earth.
Looking at the drastically different Tree of Dao, a surge of joy arose in his heart.
Now, the Tree of Dao notably bore one hundred and eight Dao leaves!
Before this enhancement, the Tree of Dao had only twenty-seven Dao leaves!
That meant, in just that brief moment, the Tree of Dao sprouted an entire eighty-one new leaves!
The magnitude of this improvement was unprecedented!
Feeling the power surging within him, Qin Zheng clenched his fists slightly, his joy growing.
The enhancement aside,
These one hundred and eight Dao leaves
meant that the present Qin Zheng could unleash one hundred and eight of his strongest moves!
One move could kill a Heavenly Immortal, and with one hundred and eight moves, he could slay one hundred and eight Heavenly Immortals!
And perhaps even more!
As Qin Zheng’s own realm and strength increased, the techniques enhanced by the Dao leaves would likewise grow stronger!
In this moment, watching the Tree of Dao continuously sway in his Inner Heaven and Earth, he finally felt a sense of stable reassurance.
With such a foundation, even if he were to face those seven top Heavenly Immortals of the Human Race, he dared to engage with them!
This Nine Yang Supreme Tower, he had only passed the first challenge, and there were eight more to go!
