Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 2064: Chapter 2063: Seventh Grade Limit!

”One hundred thousand stalks of Medicinal Ingredients, all correct, a perfect pass, you may enter the Fifth Layer!”

Within that still-familiar voice, Su Han once again stepped forward and entered the Fifth Layer.

”Whoosh!”

Just as he entered the Fifth Layer, that golden light seemed already unable to wait any longer and merged into Su Han’s body.

This time, Su Han clearly felt that the increase in Insight and Cultivation Base was at least ten out of ten thousand!

And this was the reward from the Fourth Layer.

Added together, it was already sixteen out of ten thousand.

Though compared to Su Han’s total Insight, it was still not much, at this moment Su Han felt clear-headed and refreshed; many thoughts were far more orderly than before.

This was the benefit of increased Insight!

A Cultivator with powerful Insight can see through the essence of anything and point straight to the heart of the matter!

Obviously there are countless paths of Cultivation, yet from among those paths one can directly pick out the one most suitable for oneself!

In this way, it will save an enormous amount of resources and an enormous amount of time.

Most crucially, it will push one’s future self to the most Pinnacle, most Peak level!

This is the benefit of Insight!

And at this moment, Su Han was striving precisely to obtain this kind of Insight.

The Fifth Layer seemed to be a dividing line.

Upon reaching here, the number of Medicinal Ingredients had already reached one million stalks, and among them were quite a few Top-Grade First Grade Medicinal Ingredients.

These Medicinal Ingredients, though still only First Grade, as Top-Grade level many Pill Masters had never seen them before. If they knew anything, it was only from those ancient Alchemy texts left behind by the seniors, from which they understood a little.

However, for Su Han, one million Medicinal Ingredients were still just that simple.

By the time his figure arrived at the Sixth Layer, only five minutes had passed.

Behind him, the one million Medicinal Ingredients had all disappeared!

”Whooosh!!”

The dense golden color actually transformed into a Demon Serpent, which coiled and then merged into Su Han’s body.

In that instant, Su Han’s body shook violently.

He could feel that his eyes seemed to have grown much brighter; even the surrounding darkness seemed as if he could see through more than half of it.

A full one hundred out of ten thousand Insight was forcibly poured into his soul, like a divine elixir poured over his head, making Su Han feel so comfortable that he had the urge to shout out.

And his Cultivation Base, at this very moment, directly burst out from the Peak of the Seventh Grade Void Heaven Realm!

Though it did not reach the limit, it was stuck between the limit and the Peak.

In terms of speed, Su Han was confident that with a single step, he could now at least reach 1.8 million li, an increase of three hundred thousand li from before!

”As expected!”

Su Han thought to himself, ”The one million Medicinal Ingredients of this Fifth Layer is a node, and the Insight and Cultivation Base it gives me are far more than before.”

”If my guess is right, the next Sixth Layer will either be ten million Medicinal Ingredients, or a hundred stalks of... Second Grade Medicinal Herb!”

Thinking of this, Su Han took a deep breath, actually feeling a bit expectant.

The Altar of the Divine Dao had a total of one hundred layers; Su Han really did want to see what kind of trials the subsequent layers would contain.

He wanted even more to know what kind of improvement passing these trials would bring him!

”If this continues, it’s not impossible that I break through to the First Grade Divine Sea Realm right here on this Altar of the Divine Dao...”

First Grade Divine Sea Realm!

As long as he could break through, for Su Han this would definitely be a qualitative leap!

Only after reaching the First Grade Divine Sea Realm could he truly fight against a First Grade Unity Realm!

Not to mention crushing them, at the very least, with all his many methods, Su Han could stand in an invincible position, and might even... defeat the opponent!

By then, if he wanted to leave, not to mention Second Grade, even a Fourth Grade Fusion Realm might not be able to stop him!

”Hahaha, this feels great!”

With a loud laugh, Su Han stepped directly into the Sixth Layer.

”Whoosh!”

The scene before his eyes shifted, returning once more to total darkness.

Immediately after, light flickered, and stalk after stalk of Medicinal Ingredients actually carried a faint medicinal fragrance that entered Su Han’s nose.

”As expected!”

Staring at the hundred stalks of Medicinal Ingredients in front of him, Su Han’s eyes flashed.

His guess was correct; the number of Medicinal Ingredients seemed to have started over, but they were not First Grade—they were Second Grade!

The hundred stalks of Medicinal Ingredients were all Second Grade Lower-Class, exceedingly simple for Su Han.

”Swish, swish, swish...”

Brush in hand, he wrote, and the Medicinal Ingredients vanished.

After one minute, the hundred Medicinal Ingredients were all passed, and Su Han’s figure stepped into the Seventh Layer.

...

In the time that followed, Su Han walked layer by layer.

The Seventh Layer: one thousand stalks of Second Grade Medicinal Herb, with a small number of Second Grade Mid-Class.

The Eighth Layer: ten thousand stalks of Second Grade Medicinal Herb, with a small number of Second Grade Upper-Class.

The Ninth Layer: one hundred thousand stalks of Second Grade Medicinal Herb, mostly Mid-Class and Upper-Class, with very few Lower-Class.

Until the Tenth Layer, one million stalks of Medicinal Ingredients appeared again, containing at least a thousand stalks of Second Grade, Top-Grade Medicinal Ingredients!

As for Su Han, with each layer he passed, the reward from the previous layer would merge into his body.

His Insight and Cultivation Base were both soaring rapidly.

By the time he stood on the Eleventh Layer, his Insight had increased by five hundred out of ten thousand!

And his Cultivation Base had completely broken through the Peak and reached the limit!

However, Su Han could feel that, given the resources required by his Nine Great True Selves, although the distance between the limit and the First Grade Divine Sea Realm was only a single step, breaking through would be far, far too difficult.

After all, this was Dual Cultivation of the Flesh and Martial Path, practically a Bottomless Pit!

But Su Han was not worried. He had only crossed ten layers of this Altar of the Divine Dao; there were still ninety layers behind!

These ninety layers would bring Su Han an enormous improvement, enough to let him reach the level of the Divine Sea Realm.

...

The outside world.

”He’s on the Eleventh Layer?”

”My god, he’s only used about two hours total—Young Master Su’s speed is just too fast, isn’t it?”

”Look at the rest of our Divine Dao Religion disciples. Even Senior Sister Xue has only just reached the Seventh Layer.”

”Sigh, Senior Sister Xue was delayed on the Fifth Layer by that million First Grade Medicinal Ingredients, otherwise she wouldn’t be this slow.”

”If this continues, the gap between them and Young Master Su will only grow wider and wider!”

”That doesn’t really matter. It’s not like the rewards are decided by ranking anyway. It’s just that Young Master Su is truly admirable!”

”Look, on that Eleventh Layer they’re already Third-Grade Medicinal Material. Does that mean next will be Fourth Grade, Fifth Grade, even Sixth Grade, Seventh Grade and so on, cycling like this all the way?”

”That’s what they say, but many Pill Masters understand very little about Medicinal Ingredients above Fifth Grade, so they directly skip the Medicinal Ingredient segment and go straight for the Pill segment.”

”Just like an Alchemy Contest—there are Medicinal Ingredients, Pills, and you also have to refine the Pills yourself... These are the trials of the Altar of the Divine Dao!”

”I’ve heard that Medicinal Ingredients and Pills are nothing; only when you refine the Pills yourself at the end is the reward the greatest!”
