Inside Li Qing’s cave abode on Azure Cloud Peak within the Lingyun Sect, in a secret chamber, Li Qing sat cross-legged atop a blood lotus, voraciously absorbing the power emanating from the Formless Saint Ancestor’s dao body.

He had successfully refined a single drop of blood essence from the dao body!

Though only a single drop, its energy was immense, so potent that even the blood lotus struggled to devour it quickly and convert it into life essence.

”As expected of a Demon Realm Saint Ancestor,” Li Qing murmured, awestruck. ”Even a single drop of essence blood is this terrifying. I can’t even imagine the true extent of the Saint Ancestor’s power.”

The sheer magnitude of energy contained within that single drop of blood essence left him utterly shaken.

During this process, Li Qing’s cultivation finally began to show significant progress. The rate of advancement was remarkable, his mana growing noticeably denser with each passing moment.

He was rapidly approaching the pinnacle of the nascent soul realm, drawing ever closer to its perfected state.

This method of cultivation proved far more effective than consuming any spirit pills or elixirs.

Days turned into weeks, and Li Qing remained deeply immersed in refining the Formless Saint Ancestor’s blood essence. The sensation of his mana cultivation rapidly advancing was intoxicating, a feeling that would have captivated anyone, making it impossible to break free.

Months passed in this manner.

The first to emerge from seclusion wasn’t Li Qing, but Su Xin, who resided on Water Cloud Peak.

She had overcome her demonic obstacle and weathered the heart demon tribulation.

Su Xin slowly opened her eyes, two tear streaks gliding down her cheeks, a flicker of sorrow crossing her pupils.

During her heart demon tribulation, the demonic obstacles she faced were almost entirely derived from the destruction of the Heavenly River Sect.

Even after so many years, she remained trapped within this heart demon, despite having long since avenged her great hatred.

In this despondent state, the surrounding heaven and earth spiritual energy surged toward her like a tempest.

Boom!

She had successfully broken through to the nascent soul realm. Her aura steadily climbed, reaching its peak.

A formidable spiritual pressure radiated from her body, marking the birth of Lingyun Sect’s third nascent soul combatant!

Soon, figures began to streak across the sky toward Water Cloud Peak. These were either supreme elders or ordinary foundation establishment elders.

”Congratulations, Ancestor Su Xin, on reaching the nascent soul realm!”

”Congratulations, Ancestor, on achieving divine mastery!”

”...”

Amidst the chorus of congratulations, Su Xin slowly emerged from her cave abode. The tear tracks on her face had vanished, and she spoke with her usual calm demeanor: ”Thank you all. My Nascent Soul Formation Ceremony will be held in three days. I will deliver a lecture on the Dao during the ceremony, and I hope you will all attend.”

Achieving the nascent soul realm truly warranted a grand celebration, one that should be particularly lavish.

Regardless of the sect, Nascent Soul cultivators were the true pillars of power, capable of suppressing entire regions and serving as the ultimate symbol of a sect’s strength.

Three days later, Su Xin’s Nascent Soul Ascension Ceremony commenced as scheduled.

The scale of the event was unprecedented. News of the ceremony spread like wildfire throughout the Azure Ridge Domain’s cultivation world, reaching every cultivator almost instantly. The Lingyun Sect had gained another Nascent Soul Ancestor!

Faced with such overwhelming glory, every cultivator felt deeply shaken.

”Another Nascent Soul Ancestor! Truly a formidable power.”

”Such a powerful immortal dao faction must be unprecedented in history, wouldn’t you say?”

”Indeed. At least, the historical records of the Azure Ridge Domain’s cultivation world list very few cultivation sects of comparable strength.”

Su Xin’s Nascent Soul Ascension Ceremony drew renowned cultivators from across the Azure Ridge Domain, including esteemed rogue cultivators.

In addition to these cultivation clans and rogue cultivators, even the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion sent a generous gift.

In return, Su Xin personally delivered a lecture on the dao, sharing her insights on cultivation and emphasizing key aspects of each realm. These practical insights proved immensely beneficial to the attending cultivators, sparking profound realizations.

The Nascent Soul Ascension Ceremony lasted a full three days. News of this event gradually spread to other great domains.

It’s likely that before long, the Lingyun Sect will come to the attention of immortal dao factions in other great domains and command significant influence.

After the ceremony concluded, everything returned to calm.

Su Xin remained in her cave abode for over ten days, meditating and adjusting her vital energy to stabilize her realm. Once she had achieved this, she handed over the five elements spirit pearls, along with her own Water Spirit Pearl, to Li Qing.

By this time, Li Qing had successfully digested the immense power contained within the Formless Saint Ancestor’s dao body.

His gains were substantial, his vast mana reserves expanding significantly once more.

Li Qing had now reached the pinnacle of the nascent soul realm—a state of true perfection, beyond which no further advancement was possible.

”The peak of the nascent soul realm... beyond this lies the divine transformation stage,” Li Qing murmured with satisfaction, allowing himself a rare moment of relaxation.

With the situation in the Human Realm stabilizing, the sect flourishing, and his own cultivation progressing smoothly, there could be no better circumstances.

Afterward, Li Qing attempted to break through the bottleneck into the divine transformation stage.

The result was predictable: the bottleneck remained as impenetrable as a thick wall, unshaken by his every assault.

This didn’t surprise Li Qing. The divine transformation stage was the ultimate realm attainable in the Human Realm.

Once a cultivator reached this realm, they could begin to manipulate the Primordial Energy of Heaven and Earth directly, no longer needing to worry about depleting their mana.

With a single thought, they could summon boundless mana to suppress their enemies!

”Throughout history, the Human Realm has produced only a handful of Divine Transformation stage cultivators. Now I understand why,” Li Qing murmured, shaking his head, awed by the seemingly insurmountable barrier.

Though he possessed secret techniques to aid in breaking through to the Divine Transformation stage, he doubted their effectiveness would be profound enough.

”The key is time. I need to grind away at this barrier bit by bit, like water wearing down stone, through persistent, gradual effort.”

”By the time ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators reach this stage, their lifespans are nearly exhausted, leaving them no time for such a slow, arduous process. That’s the fundamental reason for the scarcity of Divine Transformation cultivators.”

”But my situation is different. My lifespan is frighteningly long now, so I don’t need to worry about reaching my great limit anytime soon.”
