Da Xuan Martial Saint - Chapter 1292 - 627: Accumulation
Chapter 1292: Chapter 627: Accumulation
After a moment of drifting thoughts, Chen Mu quickly gathered his thoughts again.
Excessive contemplation and insight into the Dao of Time hold little significance for him at present, as he does not intend to focus on it as his primary path of cultivation. Moreover, the Dao of Time itself is extremely difficult to comprehend. Understanding the five fundamental mysteries is temporarily sufficient.
His current primary focus remains on the Void Dao.
[Mystical Fusion: Aggregation – Extension]
[Experience: 61792 points]
The direction of mystical fusion he is attempting within the Void Lineage is Aggregation and Extension. This is also the foundation for cultivating the Fifth Layer of the Ten Thousand World Divine Skill.
He is currently practicing Overlord Level Secret Techniques, like the Ten Thousand World Divine Skill and Immortal Divine Method, to varying degrees since he has reached the Divine Monarch Level. Therefore, by merely practicing the first few layers of these Overlord Level Secret Techniques, he gains a significant advantage, achieving high efficiency. With the attention of the system panel, he hardly needs to exert much effort to master the first few layers.
However, perfecting the first few layers of the Overlord Level Secret Techniques only brings further strengthening of the divine power foundation, consolidating his power realm more tangibly. It allows him to stand firmly at the Seventh Layer Heaven Peak.
In contrast, to truly advance his strength to the next threshold, mystical fusion is fundamental.
“The distance to comprehending the fusion of Aggregation and Extension Mysteries is not far.”
Chen Mu glanced at the data on the system panel, then cast his gaze once more towards the distant Void River.
His current level is already sufficiently high, standing at the Divine Monarch Realm of the Seventh Layer Heaven. Coupled with his comprehension of the Void Dao and the insights shown by the system panel, he has gained a directed spiritual light into the roots of the Void Lineage. Now, comprehending the mystical fusion of the Void Lineage is akin to adding wings to a tiger, a natural progression.
The Divine Monarch Realm is the foundation, directed spiritual light is the guide, and the system panel is the strongest auxiliary means. The Void Mysterious contained within the Fan Gu Palace is knowledge he can directly access… all these gather together in a way that other Divine Monarch Level beings find hard to match. It is also why Chen Mu has, in just over two thousand boundary years, gained over sixty thousand experience points.
Now he attempts to penetrate the double fusion of Void Lineage Mysteries — it will take no more than four thousand boundary years at most!
It can be said,
After reaching the Divine Monarch Level, his strength did not enter a plateau, but instead, he embarked on yet another rapid current, swiftly moving towards the heights of the Eighth Layer Heaven.
Thus, Chen Mu stood with his hands clasped behind him along the shore of the Void River, gazing at the Void River, sensing the changes of the Void River and the unfathomable Void Dao within the waters, quietly comprehending.
It’s unknown how much time passed.
Swish.
A figure came from the distance, yet it was precisely Hong Lin who had gone and returned.
“How is the situation?”
Chen Mu looked at Hong Lin and asked.
Since Hong Lin returned unharmed, it indicated that the troubles caused by the Demon Clan were not significant.
“Several True Demons of the Sixth Layer Heaven from the Demon Clan crossed boundaries to seize resources, but I drove them away.”
Hong Lin replied simply to Chen Mu.
Driving away some ordinary True Demons of the Sixth Layer Heaven, for her, was a light task. Even in this secret realm of the Void River, where others of the Sixth Layer Heaven Peak in the God Realm dared not confront her directly.
Plus, with Chen Mu joining her to hold the fort, unless a Divine Monarch came personally, she feared nothing at all.
Chen Mu’s realm level, even she couldn’t quite decipher now. Although only a few thousand boundary years had passed since the Dark Sky Tide, she suspected that Chen Mu’s cultivation had further progressed. Perhaps he had reached the limit of the Sixth Layer Heaven, stronger than she was, infinitely nearing the threshold of the Seventh Layer Heaven.
However, she didn’t actively inquire. Her relationship with Chen Mu was not as if they were from the same sect as Tai Chen. Though they weren’t merely casual acquaintances, their friendship wasn’t deep either. Probing into Chen Mu’s power realm would naturally be presumptuous. Furthermore, Chen Mu’s strength was beneficial for her and the entire Fan Gu Space Domain, bringing no drawbacks, so there was no need to delve into it.
Various thoughts flashed through Hong Lin’s mind, and then she took a few steps closer, also arriving at the shore of the Void River, gazing upon it, and casually asked, “Brother Chen, have you had any breakthroughs?”
“Hmm, I have gained some insights.”
Chen Mu nodded slightly and said, “This Void River indeed contains the myriad mysteries of the Void Lineage, immersing one completely.”
Hong Lin couldn’t help but smile at Chen Mu’s words and said, “Indeed, while this Void River doesn’t compare to the true Origin River of the Void Dao, it comes somewhat close. After stepping into the God Realm, I’ve spent nearly most of my life by this Void River Shore. Occasionally gathering resources is secondary; primarily, it’s the ever-flowing river that has given me countless inspirations, allowing me to reach my current realm.”
Speaking of this, Hong Lin couldn’t help but sigh again, saying, “However, the fusion of Mystical is difficult beyond difficult. I’ve reached my current level before the Seven Tribulations of Time, yet I’ve never been able to break through this fusion Mystical gate even after facing seven tribulations. I don’t know when I might hope to take that step and advance into the Seventh Layer Heaven.”
Tai Chen comprehended Mystical Fusion and achieved Divine Monarch in one step, filling her heart with joy and longing.
All beings who reach the Sixth Layer Heaven Peak in God Realm wish to take that step, but few truly do. In prosperous domains like the Ancestral Demon Space Domain, throughout countless tribulations of time, Sixth Layer Heaven Peak God Realm beings have perished one after another, with mere dozens achieving Divine Monarch, while the rest lie buried in the long ages.
Chen Mu listened to Hong Lin’s words, his gaze remaining fixed on that Void River. Watching the whirlpools rise and fall in endless succession, the entire river flowed through the void towards unknown realms, he said:
“In the mortal world, I’ve heard a saying: without small steps, there is no way to reach a thousand miles; without small streams, there is no way to form a river. This applies to both mortal cultivation and God Realm cultivation. With a heart neither biased nor stubborn, continuously accumulating, ultimately it will bloom and bear fruit.”
Now having stepped into the Divine Monarch Level, Chen Mu naturally had the qualification to guide those below the God Realm in cultivation.
Neither impatient nor hasty, unbiased and unwavering, accumulation leads to transformation—this is a grand righteous path.
Perhaps not everyone can rely on lifetime accumulation to break through the bottleneck of Mystical Fusion, but most God Realm beings face tens or hundreds of tribulations at the threshold of Mystical Fusion, with hearts filled with impatience, change, even self-doubt.
Once self-doubt arises, it contradicts the original intention, making it ever more challenging to comprehend and break through Mystical Fusion.
In this Endless Universe, everything adheres to the supreme rules aggregated from the three Origin Dao, with all living beings possessing wisdom and the potential to reach supreme realms. This ’wisdom’ encompasses many aspects beyond mere cleverness.
Conviction is also one form of wisdom.
Chen Mu possesses the Mysteries Fusion of Life and All Spirits and naturally perceives the mysteries of All Spirits more profoundly than others. To him, if one can maintain determination and unwavering conviction, after enduring long years of accumulation, no matter how difficult the Mystical Fusion gate is, it will inevitably lead to clarity and breakthrough.
Yet, speaking of it is easy; achieving it is hard, for even the will of God Realm beings, countless times stronger than mortal beings, still undergoes erosion and corrosion by time.
A single tribulation equals a myriad epochs, and an epoch equals twelve thousand nine hundred sixty boundary years.
In the blink of tens or hundreds of epochs, if cultivation comes to a standstill, unable to advance in the slightest, then even the most steadfast-willed God Realm beings will waver and self-question, further diminishing the hope of breaking through.
Many seek various Secret Realms, hoping to break through that gate with diverse encounters, much like Tai Chen; yet in reality, more are lost to the dust, ultimately fading away.
Pinning hopes on chance is merely wishful thinking in the end.
“Mortal beings too possess great wisdom, no different from us.”
Hong Lin listened to Chen Mu’s words, spoke softly, but then shook her head in lament, saying, “My master has spoken similar words. I too carry conviction in my heart; however, time ultimately erodes all things. Even if we walk the Immortal Road, conviction and will are not inherently eternal. Perhaps, in terms of present age or tens of tribulations, I can still remain unbiased and unwavering; yet if it stretches to hundreds of epochs, nearing the supreme limit under supreme rules for us God Realm beings, I can’t say whether conviction will persist.”
At this point, she glanced at Chen Mu, her eyes reflecting a hint of envy.
From stepping into God Realm until now, in mere tens of thousands of boundary years, Chen Mu reached the Sixth Layer Heaven Peak. Naturally, his innate talent and aptitude stir envy. To attain such a realm in such a brief time implies that without question, Chen Mu’s conviction and will are certainly as unshakeable as a towering pillar.
The more firm the will, the more resolute the conviction, the greater the chance to break through the Divine Monarch bottleneck.
In her eyes, Chen Mu’s likelihood of achieving Divine Monarch is exceedingly high. As Chen Mu himself said, with sufficient accumulation, under such conviction and will, neither biased nor impatient, the breakthrough may come naturally, without needing to explore numerous Secret Realms like Tai Chen, enduring risks to seek that slender opportunity.
Chen Mu did not immediately respond to Hong Lin’s words because he couldn’t grasp Hong Lin’s mentality. After all, compared to Hong Lin, he has only experienced tens of thousands of boundary years since his birth.
For the long lifespans of God Realm beings, he’s still a newborn baby, with conviction and will at their peak, unsullied by the dust of time on his spirit.
His heart is never proud or impatient, unbiased and unwavering, as he is well aware that with his talent and capability, given enough time, he will inevitably comprehend the Origin Dao and ascend to the supreme realm of the Endless Universe.
Thus, he couldn’t empathize with Hong Lin’s mindset or offer more guidance.
