Ling Chen left on the first day, and Zheng Dong didn’t notice. On the tenth day after Ling Chen left, Zheng Dong had urgent matters to report, but he couldn’t find Ling Chen anywhere. He tried to contact Ling Chen, but to no avail. Zheng Dong immediately panicked. Because he received news that Xia Ziyun was very likely to attack their Black Water City. Now, Qingfeng City and Blue Spirit City are close to destruction. Moreover, Black Water City suffered heavy losses during the attack on Blue Spirit City. At such a time, if he were the City Lord of Purple Cloud City, he would not let the opportunity pass either. If Ling Chen hadn’t borrowed troops from Xia Ziyun using an Emperor Spiritual Weapon, Zheng Dong would not have been so apprehensive. But Xia Ziyun’s cultivation was higher than his, and he also possessed an Emperor Spiritual Weapon. He was no match for Xia Ziyun at all. If Xia Ziyun came to attack, he could only surrender or flee. He hurriedly sent out Cultivators to search for Ling Chen. However, Ling Chen was already thousands of miles away in the Lianyun Mountain Range. Moreover, with Ling Chen’s powerful cultivation and superior stealth techniques, even if they reached the entrance to Ling Chen’s cave dwelling, they might not be able to find it. On the twelfth day after Ling Chen’s departure, Zheng Dong received accurate information that Xia Ziyun really was coming to attack Black Water City. Without the City Lord present, Zheng Dong had no choice but to convene a meeting with the Seven Star late-stage powerhouses to discuss their options. They were left with only two paths. One was to surrender. However, whether the opponent would accept their surrender was uncertain. The other was to dissolve Black Water City. Everyone would flee on their own. The other Seven Star late-stage rulers expressed their agreement one after another. The cultivators of Purple Cloud City outweighed theirs more than twofold; they simply had no way to resist. Especially since the previous matter of Blue Spirit City had a huge impact on them. If they surrendered and Purple Cloud City did not accept, then they would have no choice but to face death. Whereas if they dissolved, with the vastness of the heavens and earth, the cultivators of Purple Cloud City might not be able to find them all. There was a great chance of survival. "Alright, since everyone agrees, let’s do it that way!" Very soon, news of the dissolution of Black Water City spread. People also understood that they could not possibly stand against Purple Cloud City. Thus, most of them could do nothing but complain before leaving Black Water City. When the army of Purple Cloud City arrived, Black Water City had nearly become a deserted city. Only a very few Cultivators who hoped to join Purple Cloud City remained. Time quickly passed, a month in the blink of an eye. One day, inside a cave dwelling in the Lianyun Mountain Range, Ling Chen opened his eyes. A petite figure emerged from the world within Ling Chen’s body. "Xiao Wu, congratulations!" Ling Chen looked at the girl in front of him and smiled. During this period, Ling Wu had been in closed-door cultivation within the world inside Ling Chen’s body, striving to break through to the World Realm. Finally, her efforts had paid off. Now she too was a ruler of the World Realm! She had just advanced to the World Realm, but her aura was quite strong, easily comparable to an early Three Star ruler! Indeed, the world she had evolved was a flawless world. Ling Wu smiled radiantly. However, the smile on her face froze in an instant. Her beautiful eyes surveyed the surroundings with a puzzled look and asked, "Brother, where is this place?" The spiritual energy of nature here was too thin, and she could hardly adapt. "This is the World Prison!" Ling Chen explained with a smile: "It’s a place just like the Dark Realm." Immediately, Ling Wu looked at Ling Chen, her face tense with worry, "Brother, why would you be locked up here?" "Relax, I came here of my own accord!" Ling Chen fondly patted Ling Wu’s little head. Hearing this, Ling Wu finally relaxed. "Xiao Wu, you’ve just advanced to the World Realm, and it’s not stable yet. It’s dangerous outside; you should carry on cultivating in the world within my body. Here, this is an Emperor Extreme Pill; once your cultivation is stable, you can take it." Ling Chen said with a smile. "Emperor Extreme Pill?" Ling Wu’s beautiful eyes sharpened, as if she were dreaming. She had been in closed-door training for the past few months to break through to the World Realm, and had no clue about the outside world. But the Emperor Extreme Pill, she had heard of it. It was extremely precious. Ling Chen nodded and said, "I am currently at a critical moment in my cultivation. I will explain everything to you later. You should continue to cultivate!" Ling Wu quickly nodded, stored the Emperor Extreme Pill, and then looked at Ling Chen, signaling him to take her inside. Ling Chen smiled and asked, "Do you still have enough Spiritual Crystals?" Ling Wu smiled and said, "Brother, go ahead. You’re busy!" Ling Chen responded and then took Ling Wu into his inner world. Afterward, Ling Chen checked on Xiao Qing in his internal world. He found it sprawled out on a pile of Immortal Grass Spiritual Fruits, sound asleep. And hugging several of them in its arms. Ling Chen didn’t disturb it. Having killed Commander Murong and destroyed the Soul City Zhao Family, all the Immortal Grass Spiritual Fruits in their internal worlds had been given to Xiao Qing by Ling Chen. Then, Ling Chen continued to comprehend the Sword Dao. Time flowed like water. Another month passed. Ling Chen’s body shook, and an unparalleled sharpness burst forth. At this moment, Ling Chen seemed to have transformed into an unparalleled divine sword! Exuding a terrifying sharpness! "Caught a glimpse of the path!" Ling Chen’s eyes suddenly opened wide. There was a look of surprise in his eyes. It took a full dozen breaths before the sharpness dissipated slowly. After nearly four months of effort, Ling Chen had finally cultivated Sword Dao to the stage of catching a glimpse of the path! With this, Ling Chen could stand his ground against an eight-star Emperor, without being at a disadvantage. The source of this content ɪs 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⟡𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚⟡𝘯𝘦𝘵 And if he were to unleash all his cards, he might even have the possibility to slay an eight-star Emperor. After calming his heart, Ling Chen moved Ling Wu and Xiao Qing out of his internal world. "Brother, did you make a breakthrough?" Ling Wu stared at Ling Chen excitedly. She had advanced to the second level of the World Realm many days ago. During these days, she had been constantly practicing the fourth technique of the Green Lotus Sword Manual. Now, her cultivation level was sufficient. Only with increased cultivation could one maximize the power of their cultivation. Ling Chen nodded lightly. Xiao Qing bit into a bright red fruit and looked at Ling Chen doubtfully, saying, "Not really, he’s still a seven-star Emperor, isn’t he?" After consuming so many Immortal Grass Spiritual Fruits, Xiao Qing had long broken through to the late stages of the fourth level of the World Realm, and in terms of cultivation level, was even slightly stronger than Ling Chen. "What do you know? Do you think our human cultivation is like you spirit beasts, as simple as feeding pigs, just eating non-stop? We cultivate ’the Dao’ you know?" Ling Wu glared at Xiao Qing. "You’re getting cocky, huh? Daring to insult me by calling me a pig, see how this Divine Beast will teach you a lesson!" Xiao Qing immediately bristled. "Ha, with that chilly look of yours, do you still think you’re a Divine Beast?" Ling Wu said disdainfully. "Dare to question the identity of this Phoenix, I’ll bite you to death!" Xiao Qing threatened, baring teeth and claws. Ling Chen quickly stepped in between the two. Ling Chen took out a jar of Alcohol Immortal and threw it to Xiao Qing. Xiao Qing’s eyes instantly lit up, drooling over it. "Only women and villains are difficult to raise! This Phoenix can’t be bothered to argue with you!" Xiao Qing hurriedly grabbed the jar and ran to a corner. Ling Chen turned to Ling Wu and asked, "How’s it going, have you encountered any problems with your cultivation?" Although Ling Wu didn’t spend much time on her Spirit Art, Still, she had finally ascended to an Emperor of the World Realm, and her comprehension of the King Spirit Technique had deepened, so the King Spirit Technique shouldn’t be an obstacle.
