Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming
Chapter 678 - 672: Great Progress in Cultivation, Strength Skyrockets

The defensive array on the Flying Boat was fully activated, capable of withstanding the encroaching cold for around three days, so Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen did not concern themselves with the ice outside. They each crossed their legs and sat down, preparing to refine the Golden Apple.

The Golden Apple was a Divine Fruit, and although one could see the profound Dao Rhythm and energy within it, few treated it as a common Spirit Fruit to be consumed.

The skin of the Golden Apple was too hard. Even though it wasn't metallic, it contained formidable Geng Metal Energy. Its sheer hardness was comparable to Divine Gold, used in the forging of Immortal Artifacts, beyond what ordinary Cultivators and even common Immortals could bite into.

But this issue was no problem for Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen.

The Chewing Iron Great Method was not just for show—this Divine Power, originating from the Ruyi Golden Snake's talent for Gold and Iron Chewing and for Refining Gold Qi, was specially designed to overcome all gold and iron and was well suited to the task. Since the Golden Apple was, after all, a Divine Fruit intended for consumption, as long as one's body could endure the overwhelming Spiritual Power without bursting, it was exceptionally absorbable.

"Crunch..."

Each holding a Golden Apple, they began to bite into it.

Though their teeth ached from the hardness, by virtue of their extraordinary dental strength they managed to bite off a piece and chewed it with loud crunching sounds.

Once the Golden Apple was in their mouths, a rich surge of Principle and Origin Power immediately entered their bodies.

Qin Feng suddenly widened his eyes because he discovered that although the surface of the Golden Apple contained potent Gold Element Principle, once the peel was breached, what filled the inside was intense, attribute-less Origin Power.

Qin Feng had some understanding of Origin Power.

After all, he once obtained a strand of Fire Origin, which eventually led to the creation of the Karma Fire Red Lotus.

Now, seeing the Origin Power within the Golden Apple sparked ecstasy within him.

No wonder so many deities coveted the Golden Apple, with even top-tier divine beings eager for it, to the extent that God King Zeus and Heavenly Empress Hera assigned several goddesses and a Hundred-Headed Giant Dragon to guard it to prevent the fruit from being stolen—such was the preciousness of this item!

Originally, a strand of Fire Origin not only restored the fallen grade of the Red Lotus Immortal Sword back to the ranks of an Immortal Sword but also took it a step further, ascending into the True Spirit classification and becoming a treasure capable of contending with a Heavenly Immortal. It evolved even further into the Karma Fire Red Lotus after merging with several other Divine Fires.

Back then, Qin Feng was unprepared, resulting in the Fire Origin benefitting only the Red Lotus Immortal Sword.

But now, he had brought out the Golden Apple specifically for Cultivation and naturally wouldn't let outside objects benefit. Instead, he intended to refine the Origin Power into his body, transforming it into the source of his Cultivation progress.

What's more critical was that the Origin Power inside the Golden Apple had no attribute.

This meant that Cultivators of any Principle could refine it.

Thus, Qin Feng's joy knew no bounds.

Initially, he was concerned that relying too heavily on the Gold Element Principle might skew his path of Cultivation; dominance of a single Principle was not ideal.

Unlike Li Miaozhen, who cultivated only one path, he advanced on multiple Principles simultaneously, supporting and reinforcing each other.

But now with this attribute-less Origin Power, he was relieved.

By merging this attribute-less Origin Power into his other Principles, he would naturally spur enhancements in the corresponding Principles, with boundless potential.

Although he couldn't digest all of the Origin Power immediately, it could be transformed into potential and accumulated over time for gradual improvement.

So, without another word, Qin Feng opened his mouth wide, crunching several times swiftly, and devoured the large Golden Apple entirely.

He then circulated the Chewing Iron Great Method to refine the Gold Qi and receive the Gold Element Principle while refining the Origin Power, integrating this Primordial Force into his other Principles.

As a result, all the Principles in his body advanced by leaps and bounds, and his Dao Cultivation, which had just ascended to the Primordial Spirit Realm, began to grow rapidly.

Li Miaozhen, on the other hand, saw even faster progress in her Dao Cultivation.

Li Miaozhen cultivated a single path and had switched to the Geng Metal Principle, which was much simpler and more straightforward than Qin Feng's approach.

Consequently, she had none of Qin Feng's worries. Both the Gold Element Principle on the surface and the attribute-less Origin Power within were completely absorbed and refined by her.

If Qin Feng's Cultivation growth could be seen with the naked eye, Li Miaozhen's Dao Cultivation was soaring even faster.

Merely one Golden Apple, not even fully refined yet, had already elevated her Cultivation to the peak of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

Even as Li Miaozhen feverishly used the powerful Origin Power within the Golden Apple to solidify her foundation, making her path even broader, her Cultivation nonetheless reached its peak.

And there wasn't the slightest sign of instability; she was on the verge of breaking through the thin shackles at any moment to achieve Longevity.

However, she forcefully suppressed the impulse to Breakthrough, instead taking out another Golden Apple.

This time, she didn't use it on her Dao Cultivation but infused the fruit's power into her Physical Body.

She focused on practicing the White Tiger Divine Technique, which inherently related to metal and seamlessly matched with the Golden Apple.

Now, refining the Golden Apple into her body, her White Tiger Dao Body became even more formidable. Not only did her bones become as sturdy as Geng Metal Divine Iron, but even her blood turned into a faint golden color.

Moreover, this golden hue also affected her skin. As she refined the Golden Apple, the texture of her skin emitted a faint golden luster.

But once she had refined all the power, her skin not only returned to its original fairness but also became more radiant and translucent, as though it exuded a soft glow.

The power of the two Golden Apples had pushed her Cultivation to its limit, her Dao Cultivation and Physical Body Power made her feel an unprecedented strength, her internal power burst to its brim, ready to forcefully Breakthrough at any moment.

On the other side, Qin Feng also continued Refining the power of the Golden Apple.

He merged the surface Gold Element Principle into his own Gold Element Path and fused its Origin Power into other Principles.

Because the Principles he Cultivated were far more numerous than Li Miao Zhen's, to reach the Peak for all of them was not something a single Golden Apple could satisfy, he had to Refine even more Golden Apples than Li Miao Zhen.

This was the inevitable result after Cultivating so many Principles, whether in the comprehension of Principles or in resource consumption, he spent much more time and resources than a Cultivator who focuses on a single Dao!

Thus, he Refined three Golden Apples in succession, finally elevating all the Power of Laws to the Primordial Spirit Realm Peak, and then Refined another one dedicated to enhancing his Physical Body Power, elevating his Azure Dragon Dao Body to its extreme.

Fortunately, his Azure Dragon Dao Body was different from other Cultivators of the Spiritual Snake Lineage, having integrated some concepts of the White Tiger Divine Technique, based on the Chewing Iron Great Method to Refine much Golden Qi, and after Refining his Lifebound Spiritual Beast, he also gained the Golden Scale Divine Power of the Ruyi Golden Snake, so his Dao Body could easily fuse with those Gold Element Principles like Li Miao Zhen.

The Origin Power without attributes was manageable, but he could not keep on absorbing the Gold Element Principle from the surface of the Golden Apple, otherwise, he would have to Breakthrough and Become an Immortal on the spot.

Since his other Principles had not yet reached this stage, he had no choice but to direct the extra Gold Element Principle to his Spiritual Beasts.

Especially the Spring and Autumn Cicada.

This Spiritual Cicada had once merged with the Golden Cicada Bloodline, not only mastering Gold Element Escape Technique, understanding various Gold Element Techniques but also possessing the life-saving Divine Skill, Golden Cicada Shedding.

Therefore, transferring the Gold Element Principle to it posed no issue.

As a result of Qin Feng's manipulation, the once Dharma Image Realm Spring and Autumn Cicada's Dao Cultivation made great strides, breaking through the Primordial Spirit without a hitch, and advanced with great momentum directly to the Primordial Spirit Realm Peak before stopping.

It stopped because Qin Feng did not allow it to Prove Dao with the Gold Element Principle, needing it to reverse-promote its Cultivation with the strength of the Primordial Spirit Realm, to enhance the Time Law with Cultivation.

After all, the goal of Refining the Spring and Autumn Cicada was because of the Time Law; he couldn't forget his original intention for another powerful subordinate.

In addition to the Spring and Autumn Cicada, several other Spiritual Beasts were also bestowed some Gold Element Principle to various extents to enhance their War Power.

Take the Three-Headed Hellhound Batty, for example; this brute was already exceedingly ferocious with sharp claws and teeth, and after receiving the Gold Element Principle, its close-combat capabilities would become even stronger.

Then there was the Swallowing Sky Toad; although Qin Feng greatly regretted not finding a Three-Legged Golden Toad for it, a little more Gold Element Principle would still enable it to wield Space Power with even more Divine Skills.

Especially since it could also integrate the Gold Element Principle with its Star Power, making the Star Demon-Breaking Power sharper.

Besides, Qin Feng also drew out the Origin Power of a Golden Apple to infuse into his subordinates' Spiritual Beasts, but the Gold Element Principle was merged into the Karma Fire Red Lotus.

This Treasure was originally an Immortal Sword with powerful Attack Power, but after absorbing the Fire Origin and merging various Divine Fires, it became fire-dominant. Now, by integrating the Gold Element Principle he couldn't absorb into the Karma Fire Red Lotus, its power was enhanced without wastage.

As for the Origin Power without attributes, he distributed it to his subordinates' Spiritual Beasts to help them advance their Dao Cultivation.

Aside from the Hellhound and Life Tree, the other seven received a share.

The Hellhound Batty, having merged with the Bloodline Power and Principle of the Hell Three-Headed Dog, had already reached the Demigod Peak, only missing an opportunity to Breakthrough.

The Life Tree didn't require the Origin Power of the Golden Apple for advancement since Qin Feng had already merged the largest segment of the branch he had cut from the Golden Apple Tree with it; it did so brilliantly.

A branch of the Golden Apple, the number one Spirit Root of this world, was extraordinarily divine, even a mere branch was sufficient to bring it boundless benefits.

Hence, Qin Feng took special care of the remaining seven Spiritual Beasts, particularly the Swallowing Sky Toad and Spring and Autumn Cicada.

One specialized in Space Law, while the other Cultivated the even more elusive Time Law; without extra care, they would inevitably be the slowest to advance.

Another exception was the second layer of the Demon Refining Pot, home to the Spiritual Turtle with the Prediction Talent.

Only, this Spiritual Turtle had some different thoughts in mind, so Qin Feng decided to keep it on its toes and did not provide extra care.

Even so, were people to know he was distributing a Divine Item like the Golden Apple to his subordinates' Spiritual Beasts for their Cultivation advancement, they would probably berate him to no end.

This was a Treasure coveted even by those in the Immortal Realm; were a Cultivator at the Peak of Profound Immortal to obtain it, there's a chance they could break their shackles and achieve Golden Immortal status – yet this prodigal son was actually letting Spiritual Beasts consume it.

Of course, they didn't know these Spiritual Beasts weren't much different from his Lifebound Spiritual Beasts; even though they couldn't Merge, just the Divine Skills he gained from these Spiritual Beasts made up for everything.

Moreover, these Spiritual Beasts could also aid his Cultivation, helping him comprehend corresponding Principle Divine Powers, reinforcing each other's strengths – this was why Qin Feng was so generous with his subordinates' Spiritual Beasts.

After these actions, both Qin Feng and his subordinates' Spiritual Beasts had made significant advancements in their Dao Cultivation.

With the assistance of the Origin Power, those Spiritual Beasts all advanced to the Primordial Spirit Realm.

Of course, this was also because they were not far from the Primordial Spirit Realm to begin with.

Especially a few like the Hellhound and Spring and Autumn Cicada, that had even reached the Primordial Spirit Realm Peak, where they could Breakthrough to become Immortals.

The Life Tree had not yet completed merging; once it perfectly integrates the Golden Apple branch, it might possibly Become an Immortal directly.

At their current realms, these Spiritual Beasts were sufficient to help Qin Feng further perfect his Principles.

So, when Qin Feng opened his eyes, a self-confident expression flashed across his face. He turned to look at Li Miao Zhen, it was time to beckon the arrival of the Heavenly Tribulation.
