Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 4632  Continuing the path ahead

Just as the large black dog was about to reach him, Ling Han suddenly stopped in his tracks. Not only did he retreat, but he even launched a palm strike. Boom! Destructive Energy blazed.

Peng!

The large black dog was instantly hit. A hole appeared on the left side of its chest, and it went right through to the other side of its body.

However, the large black dog didnʼt look shocked or furious. He simply looked at the wound, and said slowly, ”How did you see through it?”

This wasnʼt the large black dog at all!

Ling Han smiled faintly. The large black dog had grasped Phoenix Wings Divine Flight, so if he really encountered danger, how could he not use it?

However, in the eyes of others, with such a precious movement technique like the Phoenix Wings Divine Flight, who wouldnʼt keep it for themselves if they mastered it? Would they teach it to outsiders?

Thus, though this person had copied the large black dogʼs appearance very well, he had overlooked an extremely important factor.

No one could be blamed for this. Who would be as generous as Ling Han?

How could his friendship with Brother Monkey, the large black dog, and the others be imagined by others?

”Are you Baili Haojie, or Shi Tianlu?” he asked instead of answering.

His figure swayed, and turned into a young man, but he was neither Shi Tianlu nor Baili Hao. Instead, he was a complete stranger.

”I am Tao Kan!” This young man declared proudly.

Meanwhile, Ling Han shook his head, saying, ”Instead of being a human, you insist on pretending to be a dog. I think the kinds of activity you are up to are also the activities of dogs and thieves.”

Tao Kan was instantly enraged, and brandished his palm to attack. Boom, the might of the holy flame surged out. Shockingly, he was also a Five Star Saint, and as many as thirteen Eight Star Regulations appeared.

”I am the son of the Red Lotus Holy Emperor, and you actually dare insult me?”

Sure enough, this was the son of another Great Emperor.

At first, he had thought that after the Golden Generation was completely humiliated, the Imperial Clans would withdraw from the competition for the position of new Emperor. He had not thought that they would actually still have such a trump card and an ancient Imperial Son would be able to appear.

The true Imperial Son was indeed awesome, completely not inferior to Yang Yihuan, Lu Xun and the others.

Moreover, these Imperial Sons were extremely shameless.

Baili Haojie was a Five-Star Saint, but he insisted that he was in the same age range as Ling Han. Meanwhile, Shi Tianlu was even more sinister. He had actually ambushed Ling Han half-way.

This Tao Kan was not much better either. He pretended to be the large black dog to lure him out.

These Imperial Sons were completely unaffected by their status. In order to achieve their goals, they were willing to resort to any means.

”Since youʼve chosen to become a b*tch, donʼt even think about establishing a plaque of chastity!” Ling Han laughed loudly, leaping out to dodge.

It was true that he was shameless, but it was also true that he was powerful, and had a crushing advantage.

Tao Kan was even more enraged, and chased after Ling Han to attack him.

However, no matter how strong his battle prowess was, in terms of movement technique, it was useless no matter how strong he was.

Phoenix Wings Divine Flight was number one in the world.

Ling Han didnʼt engage in battle. The gulf between their battle prowess was far too great, so what was the point of engaging in a battle where there was absolutely no chance of victory?

He activated his movement technique and left.

”Since you like to pretend to be a dog so much, I will take you in as my pet dog in future, so that you can wag your tail and beg for mercy by my side.”

He left, but his voice remained, lingering endlessly.

Peng! Peng! Peng!

Tao Kan was so infuriated that he blasted the surrounding bamboos madly, but this was set up by a Great Emperor. Not only had he not been able to break a single bamboo, he had instead caused these bamboos to light up one after another, and begin their counterattack.

Even if Tao Kan was the son of a Great Emperor and a Five Star Saint, so what? In an instant, his body was pierced through by several streaks of light.

Thankfully, his abilities were strong enough, after all. This was not enough to kill him. After resting for ten days to half a month, he would still be able to recover completely.

…

After Ling Han fled, he once again settled down and focused on concocting alchemical pills.

He was freakish, and was even in fact heaven-defying. However, in the end, he was still limited by his cultivation level.

Right now, the mainstream level of the younger generation had already reached the level of Saint Tier. Meanwhile, he was still at the Venerate Tier. Although he possessed the battle prowess of a Saint, he was still no match for an ancient Imperial Son.

If he wanted to stand against them, or even in fact kill these people, he would have to break through to Saint Tier.

Thus, the first thing he had to do was reach the nine-star Venerate Tier.

Ling Han continued to refine the Celestial Qi. There was nothing much to say about the Fourth Extreme. There was no such thing as enlightenment, and his cultivation level suddenly soaring several levels.

What he needed was the Celestial Qi, which could be used to construct the four pinnacle pillars, and prop up his celestial body. Only then would he be qualified to light the holy flame.

The Celestial Qi in the Primal Chaos Extreme Lightning Tower was decreasing, while Ling Hanʼs cultivation was steadily increasing.

Another half year passed, and Ling Han finally reached the end of the eight-star Venerate Tier.

After only three days, he had already shot up to nine stars, and stood at the highest peak of Fourth Extreme.

If he advanced another step further, he would be able to ignite the holy flame.

The number of Celestial Qi began to decrease sharply again. When there was only one fifth left, Ling Hanʼs Celestial Qi finally reached the limit of nine stars.

Now, he could ignite the holy flame and attempt to break through to Saint Tier.

However, Ling Han hesitated.

This was because he discovered that he still had room for improvement. He didnʼt feel the pressure that the limit of his cultivation level exerted on him at all.

If he were to ignite the holy flame now, perhaps it would be harmful instead, because his Fourth Extreme had not matured to the true limit.

Then letʼs just wait for a while longer.

Ling Han said to himself. What he pursued was actually not cultivation level, but strength.

Since he could continue to increase his strength, why did he have to rush to become a Saint?

His target was to be the strongest.

He clearly knew that there was still room for improvement, yet did not make the attempt. This naturally was not in line with his path.

However, he didnʼt know how many minor levels he would have to break through this time.

Sect Master-level was fifteen stars, then Venerate Tier-level wouldnʼt be fifteen stars as well, right?

”I feel that this should be related to the number of Regulations I have grasped.”

”The limit of Regulations should only be 99.”

”Thus, if I could grasp 99 Seven Star Regulations, I would definitely be at the true end of Fourth Extreme.”

”No matter what, since I havenʼt reached perfection, I definitely canʼt break through so easily.”

Ling Han attempted to break through to ten stars.

Here was the problem.

How was he supposed to break through to ten stars?

When he was at the level of Sect Master,, he had been trapped by the shackles of heaven and earth. This, on the other hand, gave him a beacon of guidance, and all he had to do was resist the shackles with all his might.

Moreover, no matter how hard he tried, it was impossible for him to break through to the pinnacle level of the Fourth Extreme, so he could be at ease and make a bold attempt.

But now, he was not being targeted by heaven and earth, and could completely attempt to light up the holy flame. This was an even easier path to take.

Ling Han felt that as long as he was the slightest bit careless, it was possible that his attempt to break through to 10 Stars would become the act of lighting up the holy flame.

What could he do?

He calmed down for a moment, and thought clearly in his heart.

If one wanted to break through to the 10 Stars, they would have to know what kind of cultivation level 10 Stars was.

”The symbol of the Fourth Extreme is the seal on the four pinnacle pillars. Every additional one represents the advancement of a step of a minor level.”

”However, the seal is only a form of manifestation. Itʼs not that this seal has appeared, and thatʼs why one has ascended to a higher level. Instead, itʼs only after one has ascended to a higher level that a seal has manifested.”

”Now, I have reached nine stars, and have absolutely no idea what ten stars means. How am I supposed to continue onwards?”

”Then, letʼs change our way of thinking.”

”If I forcefully inscribe the tenth seal on the pinnacle pillar, will it stimulate a change in my cultivation level?”

Ling Han felt that this idea was feasible.

Most importantly, this was a cultivation level that no one had ever set foot in. He could only cross the river by feeling the stones, and try it out step by step.
