124: Emerging from seclusion – Shattered Void Realm

The second Sword Technique—Sword God World Destruction.

When executed within the Sword God Space, Ji Mo felt that this sword strike should possess the power to slay a Saint.

Or rather, it had at least reached the level of the Saint Realm.

Ji Mo could proudly declare that statement:

"Below Saints, I am invincible; above Saints, I trade one for one."

It's not enough, it can still be improved.

He reined in his aura, suppressing the urge to go out and practice, and his gaze fixed on the Eight-Armed Giant Demon's flesh.

Ji Mo had high expectations for this; this Eight-Armed Giant Demon was clearly a demonic creature that had achieved Sainthood through its Physical Body.

Refine, frantically refine.

Piles of minced meat, demonic blood, and an entire demonic arm tens of meters long rapidly decomposed.

After purification by the heaven and earth furnace, special strengthening powers began to supplement his body.

His Physical Body rumbled; this was the sound of his muscles and bones improving.

After an unknown period, the Eight-Armed Giant Demon's remains were completely refined, and Ji Mo's Physical Body was now terrifyingly strong, with greatly increased physical defense.

His strength had now increased to nearly 100 Dragon Power; if he activated Super Saiyan Mode, it should exceed 1000 Dragon Power.

Strong, very strong!

1000 Dragon Power had barely reached the level of Saint-rank attacks.

If his hidden strength could land solidly, even a Saint Realm expert wouldn't be able to withstand many punches!

It wasn't that a Saint Realm expert's Physical Body was strong, but that Saint Power was too powerful; it was a completely different concept from Protective Aura.

Saint Power had the ability to bring the dead back to life and reconstruct the Physical Body; this was no joke.

To kill a Saint Realm expert with one blow, one's strength would need to reach at least 10,000 Dragon Power; with that much power, even cells would be obliterated.

Naturally, there would be no chance of resurrection or recovery.

This wasn't Ji Mo's wild guess; one Dragon Power represented having entered the Void Shattering Realm, so the leap from Void Shattering Realm to Saint Realm, a ten-thousand-fold span, should be about right.

Of course, this was just Ji Mo's idea; he wasn't particularly clear on the specifics.

After all, the gap between the Saint-rank and the Innate Realm was too vast; they were fundamentally two different levels of life.

Even the Void Shattering Realm was something Ji Mo couldn't quite grasp now.

Back before entering the Endless Sea Region, his full 100% Sword Intent plus Heaven-rank Cultivation Method could instantly kill a group of Void Shattering Realm experts.

He felt that the Void Shattering Realm was nothing special, and he even somewhat looked down on Sect Master Chu Feng of the Peerless Sect.

As a result, he was immediately proven wrong upon arriving in the Endless Sea Region, first being ambushed by an Elder from the Peerless Sect and someone from the Three Saints Sect.

It was only because those two were caught off guard by him, unaware of the Hegemon Fist's overbearing (overbearingness), and were struck at close range without being able to escape, that they died.

Later, he encountered Strategist Wen of the Brotherhood Alliance, and his world-shattering 100% Sword Intent and Heaven-rank Sword Technique were unexpectedly deflected.

Ultimately, he relied on the Hegemonic Heaven Refining Art's infinite stamina and the Hegemon Fist's hidden strength to slowly wear down and kill the opponent.

One must know that these people were all in the Void Shattering Realm! At most, they were in the Half-Saint Realm.

Yet, the difference in strength was like heaven and earth.

It is said that Strategist Wen was only a figure on the Tiger Ranking; there are hundreds more of comparable level in the Endless Sea Region on the ranking.

There's also a Dragon Ranking, and Ji Mo estimated that each of the figures on it likely possessed Saint Realm power as their trump card.

The three Innate Realms: Zhen Gang Realm, Condensing Gang Realm, Void Shattering Realm.

Only the Void Shattering Realm is free from the character 'Gang'; this Void Shattering Realm is truly a mystery!

It also proved one thing: the Profound Qi Continent and the Endless Sea Region truly couldn't compare; they were completely different concepts, and it's no wonder Martial Artists yearned for the Endless Sea Region.

No worries! I can still improve!

Looking at the pile of Materials in his Inner Space, the heaven and earth creation bell transformed into a furnace, containing Ore, special Materials, weapons, precious armor, and so on.

Anyway, everything Ji Mo recognized and didn't recognize was thrown in, to be refined! All of it!

"Rumble!"

These massive Materials continuously roared inside the furnace formed by the heaven and earth creation bell.

Pure Spiritual Qi was refined and extracted to replenish his body.

It took almost a full day for these Materials to be completely refined, along with the large quantity of Spirit Stones Ji Mo had collected, which were all thrown in together.

Violent Spiritual Qi erupted within the furnace, and with each breath, Ji Mo could clearly feel his heaven and earth furnace evolving.

At that moment, the heaven and earth creation bell suddenly burst with golden flames, blinding golden light erupted, then scattered, and 128,000 heaven and earth furnaces floated in the air.

Immediately after, these 128,000 heaven and earth furnaces continued to breathe deeply, constantly expanding until their size more than doubled before stopping.

Furthermore, tiny black spots appeared on the furnace bodies.

This should be the heaven and earth furnace evolving towards a higher level!

Ji Mo would not suspect that the heaven and earth furnace was breaking down; even if he suspected he himself had a problem, he would not suspect the heaven and earth furnace.

The 128,000 heaven and earth furnaces drilled into his body, and Ji Mo's cultivation base began to climb steadily.

His cultivation base, already at the Peak of the Condensing Gang Realm, surged again, compressing! Compressing again!

The True Gang Qi within his body continuously increased in intensity and power.

After advancing to the War Body and absorbing the essence of the great demon's body, Ji Mo's Physical Body was now terrifyingly strong, and the pressure of condensing True Gang Qi was no problem at all.

The True Gang Qi within his body continuously compressed, expanded, and compressed again, until it lasted 10 times before finally stopping.

All the Spirit Stones, Spiritual Qi, and spirit liquid in his Inner Space were completely consumed, and Ji Mo naturally entered the Void Shattering Realm.

Feeling the powerful sensation brought by the advancement of his cultivation base, Ji Mo had an impulse to draw his sword and cleave the heavens.

Putting away his thoughts, Ji Mo ended this period of seclusion.

Perceiving the passage of time, this seclusion had lasted for nearly half a year.

However, the gains greatly satisfied Ji Mo; his trump cards had increased again.

Next, it was time to sweep through the deep-sea Yao Beasts.

With so many 'meatballs' floating in the deep sea, not taking them would truly incur the wrath of heaven!

"Hehehe!"

Leaving this mountain range, everywhere Ji Mo went, apart from small fish and shrimp, everything became Ji Mo's resources.

The Yao Beasts in the deep sea generally provided much stronger increases in power; this should be related to the strong and massive Physical Bodies of the Sea Demons.

A single large Sea Demon in the Condensing Gang Realm could increase one's strength by tens of thousands of jin, or even several tens of thousands of jin.

After several days of hunting, Ji Mo no longer cared for the Acquired Realm Yao Beasts.

Unless they were in groups of thousands or tens of thousands, killing them would only provide limited improvement.

On this day.

Ji Mo was currently killing several Condensing Gang Realm Sea Demons.

Suddenly, the seawater in this area began to boil, and waves of powerful aura fluctuations came from all directions.

At the same time, shouts of battle accompanied the fluctuations of the seawater.

"It's this brat! He's been wantonly slaughtering in our sea domain these past few days, committing acts of genocide!"

"Kill him! Kill this Human Race brat! How dare he rampage in our Sea Dragon Clan territory? He deserves death! Catch him; I want to devour him alive!"

Looking at the endless Yao Beasts approaching him, Ji Mo's eyes shone brightly, as if he saw countless monster beast pills surging towards him.
