Qin Chen, from the very start of struggling to hold on, had finally fully adapted to this method of Three-in-one cultivation.
His entire being had completely immersed in this state.
Neglecting sleep and food, twelve times two hours a day, not a minute of rest did he take.
Finally, on the fourth day, Qin Chen achieved a breakthrough.
The Small Movement Technique, upgraded to The Minor Achievement Realm.
Although it seemed to be just an ascension of one realm, the difference was like heaven and earth.
The Entry Realm version of the Small Movement Technique could teleport over a kilometer!
However, The Minor Achievement Realm’s Small Movement Technique could teleport ten kilometers!
What was the disparity?
It meant that what previously required Qin Chen to move ten times to achieve a ten-kilometer teleportation, he could now do it in one go.
Like before, when Ju Bang had been chasing Qin Chen, if Qin Chen’s Small Movement Technique had been of The Minor Achievement Realm, then Qin Chen wouldn’t have had anything to fear from Ju Bang at all.
Ju Bang couldn’t have caught up with Qin Chen at all.
The earlier breakthrough of the Small Movement Technique naturally resulted in a significant pressure decrease for Qin Chen.
He could shift from the high-intensity state of Three-in-one to Dual Use.
Consequently, energy consumption was relatively weaker, and speed could increase as well.
This also allowed Qin Chen to see hope.
It seemed, he really could do it!
Three days later, the one-week limit of the test had passed.
The Guardian Spirit saw Qin Chen with closed eyes, and its pupils flickered.
Abruptly, Qin Chen opened those eyes that seemed as though they had been shut for ten thousand years.
Divine Demon Disintegration Technique!
Qin Chen shouted loudly, and suddenly, his body split open, from top to bottom, into five pieces.
This scene was undoubtedly eerie.
Even the Guardian Spirit looked on in surprise.
To the uninformed, it might seem as if Qin Chen had been dismembered.
Qin Chen shouted again, and the five separated sections of his body instantly transformed into blades, their fierce momentum exploding through the air.
Divine Demon Disintegration Technique Third Level, Body Cutting Kill, achieved!
His body severed into pieces, each becoming a blade!
This move could be used to avoid fatal attacks at critical moments and also to slay enemies!
It was both evasive and offensive!
"Reform!" Qin Chen shouted once more.
The five pieces reassembled, and Qin Chen returned to his normal state.
Divine Demon Disintegration Technique, meeting the test requirements, ascended to the next level!
"The strongest state of Body Cutting Kill allows one to sever the body into eighteen sections; currently, I can only manage five, so I’ve only barely mastered Body Cutting Kill."
"If one could really do it, severing eighteen sections, the spectacle would be quite spectacular."
Qin Chen’s heart was filled with immense excitement.
Divine Demon Disintegration Technique, Small Movement Technique, both separately met the test requirements.
Only the Little Hundred Illusion Technique remained.
"Little Hundred Illusion Technique!"
Around Qin Chen, ten Illusionary Avatars immediately took form!
Together with Qin Chen himself, that made eleven Qin Chens.
This visual was nothing short of staggering.
Little Hundred Illusion Technique, Great Success Realm!
Meeting the test requirements!
The Great Success Realm’s Little Hundred Illusion Technique was much stronger than The Minor Achievement Realm’s version.
Not only had the quantity of the Illusionary Avatars increased, but more critically, the strength each Avatar possessed from the original had also risen to thirty percent.
Ten Illusionary Avatars, each with thirty percent of Qin Chen’s strength, was also a force not to be underestimated.
Divine Demon Disintegration Technique, Little Hundred Illusion Technique, Small Movement Technique, all three methods simultaneously met the test requirements!
Even the Guardian Spirit stood dumbfounded, tears glimmering in its gaze.
"Senior, what’s wrong?"
Qin Chen was surprised to see the Guardian Spirit in such a state.
"Congratulations, Tower Invader. You have completed all of the trials set by the master, which means you now possess the qualification to enter the Illusion Realm."
The Guardian Spirit did not answer Qin Chen’s question but spoke with a beaming smile.
"Finally, can I proceed now?" Qin Chen felt a surge of excitement.
This wasn’t an easy qualification to gain!
"Likewise, it’s time for me to disappear," the Guardian Spirit said.
Qin Chen was taken aback and looked at the Guardian Spirit.
"My task is finished."
"Thousands of years have passed, and now I should disappear as well," the Guardian Spirit said.
Qin Chen gazed at the Guardian Spirit with complicated emotions.
Surely, guarding this place for thousands of years for a singular task must have been extremely agonizing.
"Now, Tower Invader, I shall open the entrance to the Illusion Realm for you. I hope you can seize the opportunity left behind by the master."
The Guardian Spirit said to Qin Chen with a smile.
"Then, I’ll trouble you, Senior," Qin Chen said gratefully with a gesture of respect.
"Illusion Realm, open!"
The Guardian Spirit rushed to the top, shouting loudly before vanishing completely.
And there, an entrance appeared, like a mirror.
Qin Chen eyed the mirrored entrance, full of anticipation. What kind of world lay behind this entrance?
Qin Chen leaped forward without hesitation and dove into the mirrored entrance.
"This Heaven and Earth Essence is so rich!"
When Qin Chen arrived at this new place, the first thing that shocked him was the extreme density of Heaven and Earth Essence.
This place reminded him somewhat of Love Valley.
It was incredibly tranquil, beautiful, and wondrous, with a breathtaking landscape.
However, the distinct difference from Love Valley was that every part of this place exuded an ancient atmosphere.
"So this is the Illusion Realm?"
Qin Chen gazed at this Illusion Realm, suddenly understanding why it was named so.
Everything seemed too perfect, almost unreal.
"There’s even a Primordial Vein in this Illusion Realm!"
Surprise tinged Little Fairy’s voice.
"Primordial Vein?" Qin Chen’s eyebrows rose.
This was something he had never heard of before.
"A Primordial Vein is a concentration of Heaven and Earth, capable of emitting extremely thick Heaven and Earth Essence. Many powerful Sects have Primordial Veins, often more than one."
"Generally speaking, a single Primordial Vein can enrich the surrounding environment with ten times the concentration of Heaven and Earth Essence," Little Fairy explained.
"Ten times?" Qin Chen was astonished.
No wonder the Heaven and Earth Essence in this Illusion Realm was so rich!
It was all due to the Primordial Vein.
"Is it located inside that mountain?"
Qin Chen surmised where the strongest concentration of Primordial Energy might be.
He began to ascend the mountain slowly.
Climbing the mountain, Qin Chen felt the incredible Heaven and Earth Essence and could hardly resist the urge to sit down and cultivate right then and there.
This place was truly ideal for cultivation.
"Huh, there’s a building?"
The Illusion Realm wasn’t very large, comparable to the space within a God Devouring Crystal.
Standing atop the mountain peak, Qin Chen could easily take in everything around him,
which is how he noticed behind the mountain, a simple wooden hut that he hadn’t seen upon entering.
There, Qin Chen faintly sensed some fluctuations.
This instantly piqued Qin Chen’s curiosity.
