Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

This banner, bestowed by the Immortal Alliance, symbolizes the legitimate bloodline of the Immortal King.

Atop the chariot stood only a tall woman dressed in orange-yellow vestment robe, no others.

All around was silence, yet in the shadows, divine senses fluctuated wildly, carrying whispers.

'She actually came alone?'

'For such a significant event, the Primordial Spirit Holy Land didn't send anyone, how could they be so careless?'

No one expected that Shang Zuling would come here alone, neither anyone from the Shang Family nor the Primordial Spirit Holy Land was present.

Without saying a word, Shang Zuling leaped down from the chariot and landed directly in the ring.

Standing there, she looked unlike any ordinary woman, her back as straight as a pine, her figure tall and imposing, curves striking, her skin like warm jade, emanating a warm yellow glow, her countenance distinct and handsome.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist, for agreeing to fight with me ahead of time."

The first words Shang Zuling spoke were words of gratitude.

At this moment, her cultivation was a minor realm higher than Chu Zheng's. From Chu Zheng's perspective, he could entirely ignore her challenge and wait until the Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects officially began, by which time his cultivation might be sufficient to overwhelm her.

This battle, if delayed to that moment, would be most advantageous for Chu Zheng.

"Fellow Daoist, no need for thanks."

Chu Zheng stood up, shaking his head slightly, "Ever since I entered the Divine Infant Realm, when this battle occurs makes no difference."

He possessed the Five Elements Immortal Root, his Divine Infant embodying the Two Sides of Yin and Yang, far more fearsome than ordinary cultivators, not to mention the Nine Orifices Golden Core in his middle Dantian.

Taken out just one, he had enough confidence to win this battle of Heavenly Fate.

Shang Zuling's gaze sharpened, she spoke no more, an earthy yellow halo radiated from around her without any fanciness, she raised her palm and pressed it towards Chu Zheng.

In the ring, the ground shook violently, the earth-yellow palm imprint swelled in the wind, in a blink, it turned into a hundred-mile Divine Peak, thunderously crashing down, thundering and roaring in the void.

Chu Zheng drew out a very ordinary Middle Quality magic treasure long sword, his body like a swimming dragon, turned into a fine thread of divine light, shot forth overcoming time, shattered the Divine Peak, and darted straight towards Shang Zuling.

This battle, like the rules of the Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects, did not allow the use of magic treasures exceeding one's own cultivation, nor the consumption of elixirs for temporary enhancement of strength.

In the void, clusters of sword blossoms floated, invisible spiritual energy condensed into a long river phantom, waves of surging sounds transmitted.

"It's the Tai Yuan Dragon Sword Dance!"

From the direction of Tai Xu Holy Land, an uncontrollable light gasp emerged, few had ever seen Chu Zheng personally perform this divine skill.

The Taixu Saint Lord's eyes slightly narrowed, a trace of complexity inevitably showed through; having practiced the Tai Yuan Dragon Sword Dance for many years, he naturally could discern the depth of Chu Zheng's mastery over this divine skill.

Currently, within the Tai Xu Gate, not a single person could compare to Chu Zheng.

Not to mention the disciples, including those whose cultivation has reached Divine Transformation and even the Elders of the Tongxuan Secret Realm, just in this divine skill alone, there are hardly any who could match him.

This was enough to prove the monstrous level of Chu Zheng's talent.

Amid the Thousand Mile Mountains and Rivers, watching the sword light that in a blink reached her forehead, Shang Zuling's expression remained calm, her skin suddenly radiated an earth-yellow luster, and she slightly turned her body.

The sharp Sword Qi grazed the side of her neck, opening the skin without a trace of blood, the wound healed in an instant.

This was an Immortal Technique from the Vast Earth Nourishing Spirit Scripture, the part of the mental method initially given to Chu Zheng by Shang Zuling did not include this secret Immortal Technique.

Shang Zuling took a step forward, her figure exploded in size, transforming into a thousand-zhang tall Earth Spirit Giant God, continuously striking, palm imprints moving through afterimages, chasing the sword light moving in the air, ceaselessly crashing down.

The ground upheaved rolling waves of earth, dust filled the sky, rising tens of thousands of feet, obscuring the sun.

Amidst the dust, sword lights flashed occasionally, carrying the momentum of torrential downpour, hitting on Shang Zuling's Dharma Body, leaving sword marks tens of zhang deep that healed instantly to their original state.

"You're not using your full strength."

Shang Zuling's expression turned slightly cold, she quickly sensed something was amiss.

With Chu Zheng's strength, it should not be just to the extent just demonstrated, nowhere near capable of posing a threat to her.

Hearing her words, Chu Zheng could not help but remain silent; if he were to bring out the Town Immortal Mace and strike with a Law Breaking attack, he could shatter Shang Zuling's Dharma Body divine skill, deciding life and death.

But doing so, many things would change.

Before many Demi Immortals in the Immortal Tribulation Realm, employing the methods of the Qi Refining Lineage was too risky, he did not even use the Nine Orifices Golden Core from beginning to end.

Shang Zuling suddenly stopped, her thousand-zhang Dharma Body standing quietly on the arena, waiting for Chu Zheng's reply.

Chu Zheng halted his steps, took a deep breath, and within his Dantian, the Five Elements Immortal Root stirred slightly, the energy of Yin and Yang surged drastically, directly entering the Divine Infant.

Boom——

A clear sky for thousands of miles, in an instant became shrouded with dense clouds, rumbling with thunder.

"Who is undergoing the Immortal Tribulation?!"

This scene immediately made many cultivators around uncomfortable, and they thought of the tribulation above first, with some already starting to retreat.

The Immortal Tribulation is no child's play, ordinary cultivators who get involved are hardly likely to survive. Enjoy new adventures at empire

Only a group of cultivators in the Immortal Tribulation Realm did not move an inch, their eyes at this moment could not hide their surprise.

They recognized that these were not tribulation clouds, but some unknown Divine Abilities.

The power of thunder, aside from a few rare spiritual bodies, is seldom mastered by cultivators, to carve thunder patterns with Fu Lu is merely a shortcut, and does not count as mastering the power of thunder.

Chu Zheng stood in the void, surrounded by blinding thunder light, like a divine being controlling thunder.

The laws of the Heavenly Dao today, compared to before, had changed drastically, he could now easily borrow the vast power of heaven and earth, incomparable to before.

In the midst of the arena, Shang Zuling's eyes flickered, faintly containing a trace of excitement, from within the thunderclouds, she sensed a dangerous aura.

Hum——

A piercing white light flashed by, instantly filling Shang Zuling's field of vision, her scattered Divine Sense was scorched by the power of thunder and forced to retreat.

Bang——

A thunderbolt as thick as a half zhang zealously smashed down, the thousand-zhang Earthen Spirit Dharma Body instantly burst apart, turning into charred dust that scattered everywhere, revealing the true body of Shang Zuling within.

This bolt of lightning cleaned out ten cultivators in the Early Divine Infant Realm, yet Shang Zuling only suffered a few light wounds, her physical body was terrifyingly strong.

Before Shang Zuling could recover her senses, Chu Zheng, clad in thunder light, pressed on again, his eyes calm as water, inside him the Five Elements Immortal Root lightly stirred, mana surged wildly, condensing a five-colored sword light behind him.

The Minor Five Elements Sword Formation instantly took shape, pulling Shang Zuling into the formation.

Times had changed, with his current cultivation, even without relying on a Flying Sword, the Sword Array was effortless.

Thousands of sword lights converged around her, Shang Zuling instantly turned into a whetstone for swords, in a flicker, her vestment robe shattered, leaving countless sword marks on her body.

A moment later, as the sword array dispersed, Shang Zuling stood where she was, her mana depleted, her Essence Blood nearly drained, she was pushed to her limits.

Dust filled the surroundings, her eyes surprisingly bright, her voice hoarse,

"This doesn't seem like an Immortal Path method."

"Indeed it isn't, my Immortal Path Divine Abilities are at most only at the level just now, never reaching mastery."

Chu Zheng did not conceal it, Ji Yuyan could tell at the beginning that the Minor Five Elements Sword Formation was a Taoist School method, Shang Zuling, experiencing it firsthand, naturally sensed more details.

"Impressive."

Shang Zuling whispered, took out a new vestment robe to wear, then slowly sat down, took a Spirit Pill, and the terrifying sword marks on her body gradually began to heal.

The outcome of this battle was clear.

Although she had anticipated defeat beforehand, Shang Zuling did not expect she would lose so miserably, almost without the ability to fight back.

Just as Chu Zheng was about to speak, suddenly his expression changed, he sensed an invisible shift in Heavenly Fate.

The Hidden Dragon List was originally a perverse artifact that nurtured one person with an entire realm, previously, Shang Zuling almost enveloped the vast majority of Cangyun Immortal Path's Heavenly Fate.

At this moment, this part of Heavenly Fate completely transferred to Chu Zheng.

With the addition of Heavenly Fate, Chu Zheng immediately perceived a great change.

Within him, the Golden Core swallowed Yuan Qi at a rate that again soared by several times, and moreover, the affinity of the surrounding nature's spiritual energy continued to rise.
