Chapter 24: Unbreakable!!

At night…

In the Qian Emperor Dao Sect…

At the foot of the mountain located at the back of the sect was an extremely secretive cave abode.

The Sect Leader of the Qian Emperor Dao Sect sat cross-legged in the cave. The Dao runes on his body flickered, and his aura was majestic.

However, his mind was fully focused on his soul.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator could condense a Golden Core within 100 days. A Golden Core cultivator could cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage through hard work. A Nascent Soul cultivator could comprehend the Dao to form their Primordial Spirit to reach the Soul Formation stage…

He was a Soul Formation cultivator, so he naturally had his own Primordial Spirit.

At that moment, Sect Leader Qian Yuan was ingesting what the Grand Elder had told him.

To cultivate in the reverse order…

To walk the path of cultivation once again, returning to one’s origin before one can ascend to become an immortal…

Although he was still at the Soul Formation stage, this did not prevent him from comprehending these words.

If he really understood what these words meant, his future cultivation path toward ascension would definitely be smooth sailing.

He couldn’t help but have the urge to laugh out loud when he thought about how he would ascend immediately once he reached the Tribulation stage in one go.

However…

Sect Leader Qian Yuan was still unable to understand what these words meant. He could only continue staring at his own Primordial Spirit.

If he wanted to cultivate in the reverse order, his next step would be to turn his Primordial Spirit back into a Nascent Soul.

However, his Nascent Soul had already evolved to become a Primordial Spirit. How could it turn back into a Nascent Soul?

This obviously wouldn’t work.

But from what the Grand Elder had said… that hidden existence had indeed gone from the Nascent Soul stage to the Golden Core stage. Furthermore, it was not just a disguise but a real transformation back to the Golden Core stage.

In other words, that existence’s Nascent Soul had directly shattered, becoming a Golden Core.

Theoretically, that was impossible.

Golden Cores could be broken to form Nascent Souls. How could there be a Nascent Soul that shattered to form a Golden Core?

He was unable to understand how the peerless existence had managed to accomplish that.

Sect Leader Qian Yuan was puzzled.

Bang!

At this moment, a stone suddenly fell from the cave abode and hit the ground. It shattered and made quite a loud sound.

Sect Leader Qian Yuan turned around and realized that it was just a broken stone. He didn’t care much about it.

Wait, something is wrong!

He took a closer look.

There was actually a jade hidden within that stone.

A jade was hidden in a stone!

If he sold the jade away for gold, it would probably be enough for a mortal family to live for a lifetime.

That wasn’t the point…

The main point was that there was jade hidden within the stone.

Sect Leader Qian Yuan suddenly thought of something.

“That’s right! That should be it! If it’s not broken, it can’t be built. But if it’s broken, it can still be rebuilt!

“Before this stone was broken, no one knew that there would be jade inside. Only after it was broken would people see the jade inside. If it is not broken, it cannot be built. But if it is broken, it can still be rebuilt. This must be it!”

Sect Leader Qian Yuan understood.

His mind instantly turned clear.

He made a prompt decision and unleashed the sect’s secret technique, the Soul Slaying Art, on his Primordial Spirit!

Boom!

A wave of power struck his Primordial Spirit, instantly making him feel incomparable pain as if his entire body was being sliced apart by a blade.

The pain was beyond words.

Sect Leader Qian Yuan’s face turned green, and his clothes were drenched in cold sweat. However, he gnashed his teeth and endured it.

Only through suffering could one ascend!

This entire process lasted for six hours!

Six hours later…

The pain had yet to stop.

However, Sect Leader Qian Yuan could not hold on anymore.

Just as Sect Leader Qian Yuan was about to collapse, a white light appeared on his chest.

All of a sudden, the Sect Leader’s pain disappeared.

Sect Leader Qian Yuan panted as he knelt on the ground. He picked up a broken jade tablet and widened his eyes.

This was his life-saving trump card, the Life Substitution Jade Tablet!

If his life was in danger, this jade tablet would take effect and block the life-threatening danger for him.

The act of shattering his own Primordial Spirit had endangered his life, and thus the jade tablet had been activated to shield the damage to protect his life.

What a pity… Just like that, he had lost his precious jade tablet.

However, what he initially wanted to do should be completed!

Sect Leader Qian Yuan smiled and looked into his body.

My Primordial Spirit is indeed gone.

Wait! Where is my cultivation?

Eh? Eh?

The Sect Leader’s smile froze.

His cultivation… was entirely gone!

Forget about the Nascent Soul; even his Golden Core was gone. He was a mortal now.

Wasn’t he supposed to revert to the Nascent Soul stage? His cultivation had been completely destroyed?

Now, he was completely doomed.

The grand Sect Leader of the east region’s Holy Land, the Qian Emperor Dao Sect, had his cultivation crippled. The most ridiculous aspect was that he was the one who had crippled himself.

If this piece of news were to spread, things would be terrible!

Sect Leader Qian Yuan got more and more afraid, and he even started to tremble.

“The Grand Elder has destroyed me!”

Sect Leader Qian Yuan gnashed his teeth. He wanted to kill the Grand Elder.

Nonetheless, he suppressed his anger and quickly calmed down.

Given his current situation, he absolutely could not let others know that his cultivation was completely crippled. Otherwise, his head would be gone.

The Sect Leader packed up and walked out of the cave. He had to return to the Sect Leader’s palace, where he lived. Only then would he be safe.

He walked out of the cave abode and walked up the mountain like a mortal, complaining as he walked.

“Which bast*rd built this mountain path? It’s so hard to walk. Isn’t this making things difficult for me?”

Sect Leader Qian Yuan forgot that he was the one who had ordered the others not to repair the mountain roads.

…

After an arduous journey down the mountain road and just as he was about to reach his own palace, a voice suddenly entered his ears.

“Sect Leader, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?”

This was the Grand Elder’s voice.

Upon hearing this voice, Sect Leader Qian Yuan was so frightened that he almost fell back. Luckily, he controlled himself in time and put on a dignified look. He looked up and said, “Grand Elder, come here.”

A stream of light flashed over.

The Grand Elder came in front of Sect Leader Qian Yuan. He looked at the Sect Leader and asked curiously, “Sect Leader, why are you here in the middle of the night?”

What am I doing here…

What am I doing here…

Wait, something is wrong.

In front of me is my own palace. Shouldn’t I be the one asking why the Grand Elder is here?

Sect Leader Qian Yuan asked with a strange expression, “My palace is in front. If I’m not here, where should I be? What are you doing here? You… seem to have just come out of my palace?”

When the Grand Elder heard the Sect Leader’s reply, he coughed a few times and said, “Sect Leader’s Dao companion said that the Spirit Gathering Array in the Sect Leader’s palace was broken and asked me to take a look. It has already been repaired, so I’m preparing to leave.”

The Spirit Gathering Array was broken?

Shouldn’t she look for an Array Formation Master in the sect to repair it?

Why look for the Grand Elder?

Just as Sect Leader Qian Yuan was deep in thought, the Grand Elder asked, “Um, Sect Leader, why do you look a little different today? Could it be that you have comprehended some kind of ascension technique? If you really did comprehend it, please be generous and enlighten me.”

The moment this was said, Sect Leader Qian Yuan shivered. He was worried that he would be discovered. Hence, he quickly tried to cover it up.

Both of them had their own ulterior motives and left after ‘fooling’ each other a little…
