Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times

In the crowd.

A few people with an exotic air about them stood together, looking in Chen Qiu's direction with curious eyes, "They say seeing is believing, but he doesn't seem to be particularly outstanding. It's hard to associate him with a Fifth-grade Heavenly Dao Top Grade Golden Core and that vast expanse of auspicious clouds descending from the sky."

"But I remember he only just broke through to Golden Core recently, didn't he?"

"But the fluctuations of spiritual energy on him are clearly that of a Golden Core's fifth layer."

"No idea."

One of the men shook his head, taunting, "But you could try to approach him yourself. Haven't you boasted that no man can resist your charm? Chen Qiu is Da Xia's strongest peerless Heavenly Pride. If you can cling to him, perhaps he could help you ascend to the throne of Empress in your country."

"Makes sense."

The female cultivator standing by in a long dress didn't bother hiding her gaze on Chen Qiu's back, coquettishly twirling a strand of her hair and placing it in her mouth, "Maybe he'll like someone with my exotic charm."

"Go for it, I'll stand back and support you silently."

...

Chen Qiu looked at the Year Beast in front of him, which represented the second challenge. Indeed, it was a bit tricky, its shell not only extremely hard, completely protecting the Year Beast within but also capable of reflecting all damage.

But that was only slightly tricky.

After all, one only needed to evade its shell and attack the Year Beast inside.

"Roarrr!!!"

With deafening thunder, a Small Thunderball gradually appeared in Chen Qiu's hand, containing over a hundred thousand illusive and substantial Thunder Dragons. He controlled the Small Thunderball with his Divine Sense, and immediately shot it towards the ground.

It instantly burrowed into the ground.

Then it shot out from beneath the half-clam, half-turtle Year Beast, with an eye-blinding purple-blue brilliance erupting and directly blasting the huge creature into the air.

Followed by a massive explosion, a rain of blood fell toward the ground.

Some cultivators who were still standing in place, completely shocked, got caught in the downpour unexpectedly and were drenched in the stench of blood, while Chen Qiu and others had long since left the area.

Although it was a bit tricky, it was just like that.

When his Divine Sense controlled the Thunder Ball to burrow from the ground and attack the inside of the Year Beast's belly, he could clearly feel that its inner parts were extremely tough, not something ordinary people could break, just without any countermeasures like the shell had.

-

"You have inflicted 100% damage to the second challenge's Year Beast and obtained one 'Heavenly Dao Escape Talisman.'"

"You have dealt the final blow to the second challenge's Year Beast and obtained a 'Heavenly Dao Spirit Ring.'"

-

"Hmm?"

Chen Qiu looked at the two boards that appeared above his Dantian, arching his eyebrow. The "Heavenly Dao Escape Talisman" was a good item for escaping; once activated, one could instantly flee thousands of miles away.

It can also ignore all spatial restraints, Formations, etc.

He was actually curious whether this item could break through the restrictions of Da Xia, but after thinking it over, he decided against experimenting. He would save it for later when he went to the Xuantian Continent, as it was a good life-saving method.

As for that 'Heavenly Dao Ring'...

"This is a good item indeed."

Chen Qiu's eyes gleamed with joy as he looked at the ring in his hand, which seemed simple but contained a hint of the power of heaven and earth, part of the Heavenly Dao Spiritual Treasure that Artifact Cultivators could not create.

The ring's effect was also strong.

It came with a storage space far larger than that of the finest Storage Rings.

He would no longer need to wear so many Storage Rings on his fingers; this Heavenly Dao Ring was all he needed.

Just one would suffice.

Besides, the Heavenly Dao Ring could also increase the power of his Divine Sense Attacks to some extent. With the "Heart-piercing Stab" attack spell, the power of his Divine Sense Attack would be even higher.

Furthermore, his Sea of Consciousness was already larger than that of an average person, so his Divine Sense Attack was naturally more powerful as well.

With all these enhancements, his "Heart-piercing Stab" was bound to become a Trump card-like technique.

The most important thing was...

After obtaining this "Heavenly Dao Ring," a strand of information surfaced in his mind: by collecting eight different parts of the Heavenly Dao Spiritual Treasure, one can assemble the complete set of Heavenly Dao Spiritual Treasure, possessing formidable power.

All Heavenly Dao Spiritual Treasures are growth-type Spiritual Treasures, and naturally, this Heavenly Dao Ring of his was also a growth-type Spiritual Treasure.

Upon gathering three Heavenly Dao Spiritual Treasures,

one would obtain the first set effect of the Heavenly Dao: "The power of the Thunder Summoning Technique will be enhanced."

Simple and brutal.

Chen Qiu was quite satisfied with this effect, although he wasn't clear on why it seemed he had developed a particular connection with the Thunder Summoning Technique. He already had many entries and methods to enhance the power of the Thunder Summoning Technique.

Perhaps...

It was because his current strongest spell was the Thunder Summoning Technique, so all enhancements related to spells automatically targeted the Thunder Summoning Technique.

If he had other stronger spells, would the enhancements then target those spells?

There was some logic to that.

...

Taking advantage of the time before the third Year Beast arrived, Chen Qiu first flew into the sky to fully recover his Spiritual Energy, then landed on the ground and stood with Fat Long and the others, ready to face the arrival of the third Year Beast.

It was unknown,

whether this third Year Beast could gift him another Heavenly Dao Spiritual Treasure.

If so, he would have three Heavenly Dao Spiritual Treasures, and he could immediately benefit from the first set effect of the Heavenly Dao.

"Roar!!"

Just as Chen Qiu restored his full Spiritual Energy and didn't have to wait too long, a Fierce Beast that was half wolf and half tiger descended from the sky onto the ground. It was three zhang tall; though not as large as the second Year Beast, it was still a colossal figure compared to ordinary demon beasts.

It was certainly larger than Little Wolf, who was following at his feet. Stay tuned to My Virtual Library Empire

This little thing was quite eager for battle.

Several times it wanted to charge forward, and if he had not stopped Little Wolf, it probably would have rushed in by itself.

Indeed, with Little Wolf's Golden Core fifth-grade cultivation, it might indeed not fear these Year Beasts, but he had never seen Little Wolf take action and was curious to see what means this little being used to attack.

But at this moment, he didn't ponder further!

As soon as the third Fierce Beast appeared, Chen Qiu's Divine Sense locked onto it, and then the Thunder Ball in his hand transformed into a purple-blue streak of light and shot towards it. He was becoming increasingly fond of using the entry "All Techniques Combined" when battling a single target.

Indeed, it was very handy.

Quite good.

As he made his move, the cultivators around him also unleashed their strongest techniques. They clearly wanted a share of the spoils, since they hadn't traveled all this distance merely to watch a spectacle, but also to claim their share.

Chen Qiu glanced over but paid no mind; after all, his Thunder Summoning Technique was instant, and by the time the attacks of the others arrived, his Thunder Summoning Technique had already made contact with the target.

This Year Beast was at the Golden Core sixth-grade level of cultivation.

Their cultivation was quite fearsome.

If not for Chen Qiu's presence, quite a few people on the scene would have already fled, especially the Foundation Establishment Cultivators, who were bluffing with their strongest techniques against the Year Beast.

If it was just one of them,

given a hundred times the courage, they wouldn't dare to attack a Year Beast with Golden Core sixth-grade cultivation while at Foundation Establishment level. There was even no need to run; slitting their own throat might actually be a quicker end.

At least there would be no risk of being chewed up alive, and no pain to speak of.
