High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System

Chapter 1278: New Achievement! True Immortal?_2

“Good.” Bai Qing and Zhao Tianji nodded in agreement.

The three of them split up to search.

The island was not large, but ruins were scattered everywhere. Much of it was shrouded in chaotic mist, and without careful exploration, it was easy to miss things.

Bai Qing found several broken True God Technique fragments in the ruins of a collapsed hall.

Zhao Tianji unearthed several bottles of ancient divine pills with remaining potency at the bottom of a dry spring.

Meanwhile, Jiang Ye discovered a few rare divine medicines that had stubbornly grown under a partially destroyed altar.

The fragrance of the medicine was so rich it almost formed a solid substance.

“This island,”

“Before the fall of the Profound Nether Ancestor, it should have been one of his palaces.” Bai Qing looked around, appearing pensive.

Jiang Ye nodded but said little.

He distributed all the findings evenly, ensuring everyone received a fair share.

The three continued to search and reached the deepest part of the island.

Here lay a half-collapsed peak, with its surface engraved in ancient divine patterns that had long become blurred.

Jiang Ye stopped, frowning slightly.

He was incredibly perceptive, able to surpass both Bai Qing and Zhao Tianji.

In the void of this mountain peak, he sensed a faint spatial fluctuation.

“Something strange is here.”

Jiang Ye raised his hand, and the Eternal Night Spear appeared in his palm.

The Four Great Laws infused into the spear, causing its tip to suddenly glimmer with a chaotic cold light.

“Break.” Jiang Ye thrust his spear forward.

Rainbow-colored spear light precisely stabbed into the void in front of the peak.

“Crack~!”

With a crisp sound, the void shattered like a mirror.

A fissure, just large enough for one person to pass through, appeared before the three.

Inside the fissure was pitch black, but the dense waves of Heaven and Earth Laws could be vaguely sensed.

“What is this?” Zhao Tianji was visibly shocked.

“It seems there’s another world.” Jiang Ye smiled slightly, feeling that he had found something good.

The three exchanged glances before entering in single file.

“Ah!!”

The moment they stepped into the fissure, it felt like entering another world.

Suddenly, everything opened up before them.

This was a small alternate space, spanning about a thousand miles in circumference.

There was no up or down, no direction, only endless void.

In the void, pale golden points of light floated.

This was law crystal mist, formed naturally when the power of laws reached a certain concentration.

Each light point contained extremely pure Heaven and Earth Laws.

“Such dense Heaven and Earth Laws.”

“At least a hundred times of that in the outside world!” Bai Qing exclaimed in shock.

Zhao Tianji was also stunned; a hundredfold concentration of Heaven and Earth Laws was inconceivable in the outside world.

“It seems,”

“This is the place Burn Mountain mentioned, where one can break through to the Peak of the Divine Body Realm.” Jiang Ye’s eyes flashed with satisfaction: “Indeed, the perfect place for seclusion.”

Such an invaluable site was precisely what he needed right now.

“We’ll cultivate here.”

“Digest all the recent gains, and aim for the Peak of the Divine Body Realm.” Jiang Ye decided.

The battle with Mo Yuan had made him recognize the true strength of the Star Talent.

The Nine Netherworld Ten Thousand Demon Palm boasts a ninety-fold critical strike.

Enough to instantly kill any full-force strike from a Celestial Pride Talent.

Yet, when it struck Mo Yuan, it failed to inflict any damage… The power of the Star Talent far surpassed his previous expectations.

“The key,”

“Is the too low critical hit rate against the Star Talent for the Mayfly Shaking the Tree technique.” Jiang Ye thought inwardly.

A low critical hit rate meant unstable combat power.

This instability was Jiang Ye’s current biggest shortcoming.

“I must quickly break through to the Peak of the Divine Body Realm.” Jiang Ye’s eyes deepened: “Then, even if I encounter the Star Talent again, I will have a certain chance of victory.”

Equal realms, though unable to trigger Mayfly Shaking the Tree.

At least the combat power would be stable.

Most importantly, upon reaching the Peak of the Divine Body Realm, Jiang Ye might unlock more of his own abilities and unleash greater power from the ‘Eternal Night Spear.’

Divine Suppression, Divine Descent, Divine Presence, and numerous ultimate divine skills would all be significantly boosted.

At that time, Jiang Ye’s comprehensive combat power would be a hundred times greater than it is now.

…

At the core of the alternate space.

Jiang Ye sat cross-legged, his eyes tightly shut.

In front of him hovered several drops of Ten Thousand Year Divine Marrow, top-tier Divine Crystals, Nine Turn Divine Medicine, and various other treasures.

He did not rush to begin cultivation but instead allocated a strand of his consciousness, delving deep into the Sea of Consciousness.

There, fragments of memory from the Profound Nether Ancestor were sealed.

Previous to exploring the pool, Jiang Ye had only glimpsed a scene related to Blue Star.

He hadn’t yet had the chance to examine the rest of the memories.

Now, seizing the opportunity during the process of refining the divine marrow, he decided to carefully organize them.

In the depths of the Sea of Consciousness, memory fragments rotated slowly in the void like countless stars.

Jiang Ye’s consciousness reached into them.

A scene slowly unfolded within his Sea of Consciousness.

In the scene, Profound Nether Ancestor is standing in the starry sky.

Beside him, there is another towering figure.

The person is clad in dark gold battle armor, their face obscured, with only a pair of cold eyes emanating an endless ancient aura.

The two overlook the scene below.

There lies a brilliant star river.

“The Milky Way Galaxy?” Jiang Ye immediately recognized it.

And below their feet, Blue Star rotated slowly, like a blue gem.

“The majority of the civilizations in the Milky Way have dissipated.” The towering figure spoke, voice detached and emotionless: “This Blue Star is one of the few surviving civilizations in this star domain.”

Profound Nether Ancestor stood with hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on Blue Star.

“Truly a disaster without reason.” There was a hint of lament in Profound Nether Ancestor’s voice.

“Indeed.”

“Blue Star is merely a disaster without reason.” The towering figure’s voice was unruffled: “But the exile of the Milky Way by the Celestial Wave Empire has its reasons.”

“If the civilizations of the Milky Way were to be activated, unlocking the Galaxy Bloodline, it would threaten the empire’s rule.”

Profound Nether Ancestor was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

“Thus, using Daoist Soldiers to seal the entire Milky Way Galaxy.”

“Ensuring that all civilizations here can never ascend.”

“…”

…

Jiang Ye’s consciousness withdrew from the memory scene.

Celestial Wave Empire.

Galaxy Bloodline.

Exile of the Milky Way.

These terms were completely unfamiliar to him.

“Retracing.” Jiang Ye began to search through the complex memories of Profound Nether Ancestor one by one.

Soon, he found relevant records in the memories.

“Celestial Wave Civilization.”

“A fourth-level starry sky civilization located in the Star Realm Sea.” Jiang Ye traced carefully: “Extremely powerful, known as the ‘Celestial Wave Empire,’ ruling over countless galaxies.”

“The ancestors of the Celestial Battle Civilization and West Sea Civilization have intricate connections with it.”

“Civilizations in the Star Realm Sea are as numerous and brilliant as the stars, being called an empire means it is a universal giant, shining across ages…”

…

“Galaxy Bloodline.”

In the fragments of memory, there weren’t many explanations for this term.

But Jiang Ye still pieced together a vague outline.

After activation, the civilizations of the Milky Way will awaken an ancient bloodline.

It’s said that this bloodline can be traced back to the dawn of the universe.

People with this bloodline are naturally attuned to the Heaven and Earth Laws, cultivating at speeds far beyond ordinary people.

More importantly——

The Galaxy Bloodline would pose a threat to the domination of Celestial Wave Civilization.

Thus, Celestial Wave Civilization employed Daoist Soldiers to seal the entire Milky Way Galaxy.

Ensuring that all civilizations in this star domain could never ascend, unable to threaten the rule of the Celestial Wave Empire.

…

“Profound Nether Ancestor.”

This part in the memory fragments was the most complete.

Profound Nether Ancestor came from Celestial Wave Civilization as a True God.

He was ordered to leave the Star Realm Sea and come to the desolate star domain on the outer edges of this star realm sea to eradicate all potential Galaxy Bloodline-awakening civilizations surrounding the Milky Way Galaxy.

But during the mission, he encountered someone.

[Ancient Dark God, Errens]

At that time, Errens was in his prime.

Ruler of the Black Dragon Civilization, Eternal True God.

Profound Nether Ancestor fought Errens, ultimately being slain by the Ancient Dark God, escaping with a residual soul and the Dark Gold Void Disk into the Nine Heavens Cave Mansion.

Hiding in the depths of the Divine Pool, surviving countless ages barely.

Awaiting the day to seize and be reborn.

Then, he encountered Jiang Ye.

The memory interrupted at this point.

…

“Swoosh~”

Jiang Ye slowly opened his eyes.

He exhaled slowly, feeling a heavy heart.

“A civilization from the Star Realm Sea’s fourth level is the one sealing Blue Star?” Jiang Ye frowned deeply: “This is a big problem.”

If it were a third-level civilization, it would be easier to handle.

But a fourth-level civilization, to him now, is a colossal entity.

“To allow Blue Star Civilization to ascend.”

“The seal of the Daoist Soldiers must be unlocked.” Jiang Ye mused: “But would this alarm the Celestial Wave Civilization behind it?”

His eyes flashed with thoughts, and his emotions grew heavier.

Suddenly——

A long-lost prompt sound echoed in his mind.

[Detected that the host as a ‘Martial Path Human Immortal’ has directly withstood ‘True Immortal’ level heavenly authority and survived successfully.]

[Title Unlocked: Suppression of All Rights]
