Chapter 36: Chapter 36: The Breakthrough of the Arrogant Genius_1

Golden rays of light burst from the top of Qin Wudao’s head, coalescing into an ethereal golden lotus, each petal revealing the truth of the universe.

A massive amount of Spiritual Energy swirled towards him.

Qin Wudao, who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground, slowly began to hover in mid-air. He was starting his attempt to break through to the Nirvana Realm, intending to complete the Nine Cycles of Nirvana after this breakthrough.

His withered body gradually rejuvenated under the nourishment of the Spiritual Energy.

However, if powerful martial artists were present, they would have noticed that Qin Wudao’s blood carried a faint golden hue—this was an indication of the bloodline transformation that would occur only in Great Emperor Realm martial artists.

"Did he succeed?"

The mouth of Qin Taizu, the founding emperor of the Qin Dynasty, was agape in amazement. After confirming that what he saw was not an illusion, he jumped up with joy.

Two days later, however, a pained expression appeared on his face, as the Spiritual Energy of the Spirit Spring World was being rapidly consumed by Qin Wudao.

"You damned boy, you’ve bled me dry!"

Reluctantly, Qin Taizu took out dozens of Spirit Stones and placed them around Qin Wudao, where they transformed into pure Spiritual Energy.

An hour passed, and the translucent Spirit Stones had turned grey; the Spiritual Energy stored within had been completely consumed.

"Good heavens, why haven’t you broken through yet, you little monster?"

Qin Taizu was so heartbroken he could hardly breathe. Gritting his teeth, he took out more than nine hundred Spirit Stones—his entire fortune, originally intended for his own Saint Realm breakthrough.

However, to ensure that Qin Wudao could successfully complete the Nine Cycles of Nirvana, he had to abandon his plans for breaking through to the Saint Realm.

The Spirit Stones he took out were all of the highest quality, each worth a fortune. A single high-quality Spirit Stone could support a Saint Realm martial artist’s cultivation for half a year, or be traded for several cities.

Once the Spirit Stones were placed on the ground, Qin Wudao activated the "Chaos Heavenly Scripture" and frantically absorbed the Spiritual Energy. The golden lotus above his head became more solid, and faint, ethereal melodies began to emanate from it.

By the time most of the Spiritual Energy from these Spirit Stones was absorbed, an even stronger fluctuation spread out from Qin Wudao’s body, forming a beam of light that connected the golden lotus to the heavens above, reaching the very firmament.

The Nirvana Realm—achieved!

"Finally, I succeeded!"

Qin Wudao checked his Dantian and found it completely golden. It encapsulated an energy countless times stronger than in the Fasang Realm, making him feel as if he could destroy mountains with a casual punch.

Subconsciously, he brought up his attributes.

Host: Qin Wudao!

Cultivation: Early Stage Nirvana Realm!

Constitution: Chaos Divine Body!

Cultivation Technique: "Chaos Heavenly Scripture"!

Weapons: Xuanyuan Sword, Execution Platform of God!

Subordinates: Jia Xu, Yan Yun and the Eighteen Riders, Fifty Thousand Great Qin Iron Cavalry!

Additional Rewards: Peerless Fortune, First-Level Sword Intent, Earth-Grade Alchemy...

Evaluation: As the foremost talent of the Qin Dynasty and the first person in history to achieve the Nine Cycles of Nirvana, in the vast Primitive Continent, he is still but a tiny ant!

A tiny ant!

Seeing this evaluation, the flicker of arrogance that had just risen in Qin Wudao was instantly extinguished. His current cultivation was only considered decent among the younger generation.

He still had a long way to go to become a true powerhouse.

"Ancestor!"

Qin Wudao opened his eyes and respectfully bowed to Qin Taizu. During his breakthrough to the Nine Cycles of Nirvana, he had awoken from his deep meditation and had seen everything Qin Taizu had done. A feeling of gratitude surged up within him.

"Good! Good! Good!" Qin Taizu said "Good!" three times in succession, walked up to Qin Wudao, and clapped him on the shoulder like a playful old man. "Come," he said, "I’m happy today. Let’s go out and have a few drinks with me!"

A spatial vortex emerged.

With a light tap of their feet, the two flew out of the Spirit Spring World.

Next to the rockery, Emperor Qin was seated cross-legged. A few leaves had fallen on him, indicating he hadn’t moved for a very long time.

"They’re out!"

Sensing the spatial fluctuations, Emperor Qin opened his eyes. Seeing Qin Taizu and Qin Wudao, he rushed forward to ask, "Wudao, was it successful?"

"Nonsense! Don’t you see whose descendant he is?" Just as Qin Wudao was about to answer, Qin Taizu cut in, proudly declaring, "Wudao is far more promising than you! With an eight-turn Nirvana, he has the makings of a Great Emperor!"

Hearing this, Qin Wudao was startled before quickly understanding. If news of his Nine Cycles of Nirvana were to spread, it would undoubtedly attract immense, unwanted attention.

A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

"My son has achieved an eight-turn Nirvana and has the makings of a Great Emperor!"

Emperor Qin was stunned for a moment before regaining his senses, breaking into giddy laughter. Even with his usual composure, he could not contain his excitement for a long time.

This silly boy!

Looking at Emperor Qin’s dazed expression, Qin Taizu led Qin Wudao to the side, completely forgetting the faint palm print still on his own face.

In the Spirit Spring World, he had lost his composure even more than Emperor Qin.

...

Coincidentally, far away in other domains, the prodigies of the Sacred Lands also began their breakthroughs into the Nirvana Realm.

In the eastern part of the continent, there stood a unique, imposing Male Mountain, resembling a reclining Kylin. It exuded a powerful aura that made flying birds detour and living creatures halt.

However, two figures stood on the mountain peak.

One was an old man with white hair, wielding a Kylin scepter. Behind him loomed the divine image of a Kylin, tall and majestic, filled with an imposing aura as solid as a mountain, like an indestructible gateway.

Standing to his right was a young man with a noble bearing and disdainful eyes, appearing like a divine son from the heavens who looked down on all the world as ants.

"Youlin, for the Immortal Path to open, you must achieve the Nine Cycles of Nirvana!"

"Your great-grandfather divined the heavenly secrets, sacrificing two hundred thousand years of his lifespan. From the endless strands of fate, he found the key to achieving the Nine Cycles of Nirvana: to sculpt an immortal bloodline and shatter one’s Dantian!"

The elder’s tone was devoid of sorrow or joy, as profound as an ancient well, its depth unfathomable.

"Don’t worry, Great-grandfather, I will certainly achieve the Nine Cycles of Nirvana and suppress all the heroes of the world!"

The young man clenched his fists, his eyes full of determination. Brimming with youthful vigor, he too wished to make a name for himself throughout the world and ascend to the pinnacle of immortality.

"Haha, good!" The elder laughed for a moment. "Then begin your retreat. Your great-grandfather will guard the Dao for you!" he then said in a solemn voice. Although he had divined the method for the Nine Cycles of Nirvana, the breakthrough process itself was still fraught with danger.

"Thank you, Great-grandfather!"

The young man bowed respectfully, then sat on a nearby cushion and began to meditate with his eyes closed.

The cushion was no ordinary item but a sacred weapon. It emitted an azure light that enveloped the young man, stabilizing his mind and aiding his cultivation.

This young man was Shen Youlin, the Chosen Son of the Kylin Sacred Land!

Furthermore, he possessed the tenth-ranked special constitution: the Myriad Beast Divine Body!

I want to see who will emerge victorious in this battle of the Immortal Dao...

Standing on the mountain peak, the elder gazed into the endless sky. In his vision were powerful Sacred Lands, hidden ancient clans, and supreme Heavenly Dynasties—his gaze encompassed the entire world!

Meanwhile, aside from Shen Youlin, many other prodigies, driven by ambition, also began their breakthroughs to the Nirvana Realm.

Their goal, too, was the Nine Cycles of Nirvana!

No one knew that in an inconspicuous domain, an unassuming young man had already completed the Nine Cycles of Nirvana.
