Chapter 3723 A Drop of Blood Can Suppress the Peak of an Immortal Emperor
now.
Inside the Mysterious Immortal Abode.
A terrifying aura, like that of an ancient divine mountain, suppressed everything, and the space itself emitted a painful groan, as if it could not withstand this pressure.
The immense protective barriers of the immortal abode were also trembling slightly.
The overwhelming power of the Heavenly Blood was like the radiant sun illuminating the sky; its supremely strong and yang power made even the most wicked flee in terror.
If you look closely, you can see that within that blood and qi, a figure as majestic as a mountain is being born. This figure seems to be able to stand tall between heaven and earth, with a wild and ancient aura raging and pressing down.
When Shen Changqing opened his eyes, all the strange phenomena disappeared.
He looked inward at himself.
His blood was like golden mercury, each drop seemingly containing boundless divine power. With a flick of his finger, Shen Changqing saw a drop of blood fall and instantly transform into an avatar.
The aura of this incarnation is terrifying; it has clearly reached the peak of the Immortal Emperor level.
See here.
A smile appeared on Shen Changqing's face: "A single drop of blood can rival the peak of an Immortal Emperor. This is the power after the physical body has become a Saint!"
Compared to before the breakthrough, my current strength has increased dramatically.
The so-called physical attainment of sainthood.
With his physical strength alone, he was comparable to a half-saint.
Shen Changqing had one foot in the semi-saint realm before, which seemed similar to his current state, but in reality, the difference between them was worlds apart.
A person who has only achieved partial physical sainthood is no different from an ant in the face of a true physical saint.
Now that he has broken through his own limits, if we only compare physical strength, Shen Changqing is absolutely confident that he can easily suppress his former self before the breakthrough.
The premise is.
One cannot perish without relying on the spirit of the artifact.
After all, Shen Changqing cultivated the Undying Body of Weapon Forging, using his physical body to bear a half-step second-grade innate imperial weapon. If we only talk about defensive power, even ordinary half-saints would have difficulty threatening him.
Although physical sainthood grants power comparable to a half-saint, defeating a half-step second-grade innate imperial weapon is still no easy feat.
If there is no indestructible spirit within the body, the advantage of achieving sainthood through physical body is obvious.
Of course.
Even if it has an indestructible spirit.
Now that I have taken this step towards physical sainthood, the changes it brings are also significant.
More importantly.
That is the upper limit of the existence of the indestructible spirit body.
Judging from the indestructible spirit body he has obtained so far, at most it can only support a third-grade innate imperial weapon.
Furthermore...
The weapon is refined and integrated into the body.
At most, it will only inherit the defensive power of the treasure.
Simply put, he was just a weakling who could be beaten up; how could that be compared to true physical sanctification?
"With my current strength, even if my immortal power is depleted after activating the Soul-Destroying Sword, I can still contend with a half-saint with my physical strength. My survival ability has increased by more than just one level."
I just don't know if, if I were to go all out now, I could contend with a Third Tribulation Half-Saint—”
Shen Changqing pondered to himself.
Apart from that.
The greatest advantage of achieving physical sainthood today.
That means increased lifespan.
A lifespan ten times that of an Immortal Emperor is enough to drive other Immortal Emperors mad.
But for Shen Changqing, this advantage was actually dispensable.
Even though he has used the Seven Profound Divine Tower to cultivate many times, which has greatly depleted his lifespan, compared to the lifespan of an ordinary Immortal Emperor of hundreds of billions of years, he has only used one-tenth of it so far.
The next great calamity.
Shen Changqing was absolutely certain that he could attain immortality.
and so.
Lifespan was of no importance to him.
then.
With a thought, Shen Changqing swallowed the blood again.
Physical sainthood!
Every drop of blood is precious and should not be wasted.
otherwise.
It will take a lot of effort to re-condense it later.
To take this step, Shen Changqing invested hundreds of millions of high-grade immortal stones, including a Jade Marrow King and the essence blood of an ancient god.
To know.
As beings of the Primordial God Clan with innate bloodlines, their essence and blood are extremely pure, far more useful than the essence and blood of many Second Tribulation or even Third Tribulation Half-Saints.
The essence and blood of these ancient gods cannot be measured by ordinary immortal stones.
If we really have to compare them in terms of value, in Shen Changqing's opinion, even a hundred billion high-grade immortal stones might not be able to compare.
This can be seen.
How much cultivation resources are needed to achieve physical sainthood?
In this way...
One's own blood should not be easily lost.
Then.
Shen Changqing stepped into the Seven Mysterious Divine Tower and once again deduced his opponent's moves.
As is customary.
The first opponent was still an Eighth Tribulation Half-Saint.
The moment Li Chenyuan appeared, Shen Changqing didn't even have time to react before his chest was pierced by the sword energy, instantly killing him on the spot.
The so-called power of physical sainthood is meaningless in the face of an Eight Tribulation Half-Saint.
Followed by.
He was a Seventh Tribulation Half-Saint!
A half-saint at the sixth tribulation!
A half-saint at the fifth level of tribulation!
A half-saint who has undergone four tribulations!
……
The outcome of each battle was roughly the same as the one before.
This result was within Shen Changqing's expectations.
Even if one achieves physical sainthood, in the end, one is only a half-saint at the first tribulation. It is absolutely impossible to greatly increase one's strength in one go.
However, with the appearance of the Third Tribulation Half-Saint, Shen Changqing managed to put up a fight for a while, lasting from one hour to one and a half hours.
Then, he progressed to the second tribulation and became a half-saint.
Shen Changqing was already able to win easily.
After this battle...
He already understood the changes in strength after his physical body became a saint.
"My current strength has not yet reached the level of breaking through to the third tribulation half-saint, but I am already a rare opponent among the second tribulation half-saints."
If the physical body can advance further and reach a level comparable to a second-stage half-saint, then there is hope of fighting against a third-stage half-saint.
However, if one does not make a breakthrough in cultivation, their inherent advantages will only diminish over time.
To contend with a Fourth Tribulation Half-Saint, while still at the Immortal Emperor realm, one would need at least a Fourth Tribulation level physical body!
Shen Changqing pondered to himself.
Even so, he was quite satisfied.
After all, before one's cultivation level breaks through to the semi-saint realm, making even a slight breakthrough in strength, which is already difficult to improve, carries a different significance.
If the opportunity were to be given to other Immortal Emperors, Shen Changqing believed that none of them would refuse.
That's just a statement.
Reaching the first half-saint level in terms of physical strength is already incredibly difficult; the challenge of further honing one's skills to the second half-saint level would only be even greater.
The resources required for each subsequent step of cultivation are estimated to be astronomical.
But no matter what, now that he had taken the first step, Shen Changqing had no reason to give up.
The time that follows.
Shen Changqing was silently consolidating himself to familiarize himself with the changes after his physical body became a saint.
Ten years in the outside world.
The first layer of space spans a thousand years.
After his thousand-year seclusion ended, Shen Changqing once again stepped out of the Seven Profound Divine Tower and headed to the Tongtian Pavilion.
Upon learning the news, Du Changshou immediately came forward to meet with him.
Shen Changqing asked, "I wonder how many rare and precious materials Steward Du has collected during this period?"
“Treasures of nature are scarce these days, and there are many cultivators in need of them. I have tried my best to collect them over the years, but so far I have only collected about 30 million high-grade immortal stones worth of treasures of nature.”
Du Changshou gave a helpless, bitter smile.
These rare and precious materials are born from the creation of heaven and earth, and cannot be compared with ordinary elixirs.
The latter can be mass-produced as long as the means are sufficient.
However, the former is difficult to replicate due to the unpredictable nature of creation. The birth of many rare and precious materials either comes at a great cost or depends on a stroke of luck.
and so.
The quantity of rare and precious natural treasures is destined to be incomparable to that of elixirs.
originally.
With the resources of Tongtian Pavilion, even a branch pavilion can possess a considerable amount of rare and precious materials.
However, over the years, Shen Changqing has acquired hundreds of millions of high-grade immortal stones worth of rare and precious materials in one go, which has greatly shaken the Tongtian Pavilion's inventory.
Precisely.
The stock of ninth-grade natural treasures is limited.
In addition, Shen Changqing was not the only customer of Tongtian Pavilion.
In this way...
The sharp decline in the number of rare and precious natural treasures is inevitable.
Upon hearing this...
Shen Changqing didn't insist too much. Instead, he flicked his sleeve, and a storage ring landed in front of Du Changshou.
"Thirty million it is. As for the collection of ninth-tier natural treasures, we can put it on hold for now."
"no problem!"
Du Changshou didn't ask too many questions. There are some things you shouldn't ask; that's professional ethics.
soon.
Shen Changqing left Tongtian Pavilion carrying with him 30 million high-grade immortal stones and other rare and precious materials.
After returning to his immortal abode, he followed the same method, using these rare and precious materials to refine pools of water, and then entered the pools to cultivate.
Compared to before his breakthrough, now that he has achieved physical sainthood, Shen Changqing's speed in refining rare and precious materials is more than ten times faster.
A pool of water.
It is enough to overwhelm the energy of many Celestial Emperors.
At this moment, everything was completely devoured by Shen Changqing.
His physical body was like a bottomless abyss; no matter how many rare and precious materials were available, they could not truly fill his body.
But after the last bit of energy was refined, Shen Changqing opened his eyes, a hint of helplessness on his face.
"really!"
"After breaking through to the Half-Saint Realm, ninth-grade heavenly treasures are no longer of much use. Even spending thirty million high-grade immortal stones is not enough to shake one's blood and qi."
Under these circumstances, even collecting trillions of ninth-tier heavenly treasures would likely be insufficient to truly break through to the Second Tribulation Half-Saint realm!
Shen Changqing had suspected this result before, which is why he told Du Changshou to stop collecting ninth-tier natural treasures.
Now that I'm trying it myself, it's a way of verifying what I thought.
in short.
These 30 million high-grade immortal stones have gone down the drain.
But no way.
If the quantity of rare and precious materials is too small, even if they are refined, it will be difficult to discover many clues.
Only by investing 30 million high-grade immortal stones can we truly determine whether it will be effective.
Judging from the current situation, Shen Changqing estimated that if he wanted to continue to improve his physical body, he would either need to obtain the essence blood of other semi-saints or collect tenth-level natural treasures.
The latter goes without saying.
Semi-Saint level rare and precious natural treasures are even rarer and more expensive than I can afford now.
But if we're talking about the essence blood of a demigod—
Ordinary semi-saint essence blood has little significance to oneself.
Even a ninth-level half-saint is essentially the same.
Only the essence blood of a half-saint, like that of the ancient gods, possessing innate bloodlines, can truly exert its power.
Collecting essence and blood at this level is no easy task.
