Cultivation Starts from Farming-Chapter 663 - 318: Power of Divine Techniques

To know that the stronger one’s power and talent, the greater the chance of becoming a target for others.

He was originally a person of great fortune, and now he has a Fourth Rank Demon Monarch awakening with a Divine Power Seal.

Even a giant at the Mid-Stage Nascent Soul might be tempted upon seeing this.

At this thought, Xu Ping immediately developed a headache.

With his current strength, he’s far behind even someone like Ban Jing who is at the Peak of Early-stage Nascent Soul, let alone comparing with a Mid-Stage Nascent Soul giant.

"Yan Daoist friend, you need not worry excessively."

As though seeing through Xu Ping’s thoughts, the pleasant voice of True Monarch Lan Ling timely interrupted his train of thought.

"The Rat True Monarch’s Divine Technique Seal is now exposed mainly due to the recent breakthrough, resulting in unstable Spiritual Power."

"In fact, once the Demon Beast completes transformation and stabilizes its cultivation, this Divine Technique Seal can be consciously hidden."

"In the future, as long as Rat True Monarch stabilizes its cultivation and does not deliberately release the seal’s aura, even a Mid-Stage Nascent Soul giant would not easily perceive its extraordinary nature."

"Moreover, this matter is known only to the two of us."

True Monarch Lan Ling noticed Xu Ping’s worry and offered words of comfort.

"I see."

Upon hearing these words, Xu Ping immediately eased up, his tense nerves relaxing as well. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Being able to hide it is good.

Otherwise, he might only dare to release the Water Lake Rat from the cave after cultivating to the Nascent Soul Realm.

"I hope True Monarch Lan Ling can keep this a secret for the Water Lake Rat," Xu Ping clasping his hands towards True Monarch Lan Ling.

Although the matter is known by True Monarch Lan Ling, which potentially poses a hidden threat,

he is unable to slay True Monarch Lan Ling.

On one hand, he doesn’t have the capability; even with Water Lake Rat it’s probably difficult.

On the other hand, True Monarch Lan Ling has always shown him considerable care.

"Of course."

True Monarch Lan Ling gave a sweet smile, feeling joyful, "Apart from us two, no third person will know about this."

The stronger and more talented the Water Lake Rat is, the more advantageous it is to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.

As for whether Elder Yan would seize control due to a surge in power, True Monarch Lan Ling was not particularly worried.

One reason is that the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons has deep foundations, thousands of years of inheritance with many hidden cards and methods unknown to outsiders.

Not even a Mid-Stage Nascent Soul giant could easily undermine the foundations of the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.

On another note, through years of observation and probing,

True Monarch Lan Ling has basically determined that Elder Yan should be a cultivator devoted to arduous cultivation, pursuing the Dao.

Uninterested in worldly disputes of power and fame.

These types of cultivators are often more reliable, more suitable as partners rather than adversaries.

...

"Demon King!"

At this moment, numerous Golden Core cultivators of the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons near the tribulation crossing site, felt a thrill in their hearts sensing the terrifying Demonic Power aura.

The seemingly small body of the Water Lake Rat, with its breathing, heavy as a mountain, causing everything to fall silent.

Belonging to a Fourth Rank Demon Beast, the Earth Fiend spiritual pressure was born in this world responding to its existence.

"This is impossible!!"

From afar on the mountain peak, Yunqing Zhenren gazed at the scene before him, his expression suddenly twisted, his eyes filled with unbelievable shock.

A wild Rat Demon actually broke through to Fourth Rank transformation in such a short time?

Moreover, the speed at which it crossed the tribulation, almost surpasses all previously recorded Fourth Rank Demon Monarchs in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.

Yunqing Zhenren’s fingers clenched tightly, the jealousy and anger surging in his heart nearly melting him entirely, the feeling akin to being attacked by thousands of ants.

Yan Ruchen!

An outsider Golden Core cultivator, not only his own power rivals Nascent Soul but even his spirit pet can breakthrough and transform, achieving Fourth Rank Demon King!

If things continue this way, his status in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons will certainly rise again.

"Ah!"

Yunqing Zhenren took a deep breath, doing his best to suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart.

As a long-cultivated Peak Golden Core cultivator, he knows clearly that excessive jealousy and anger will only affect his judgment and cultivation, unbeneficial to the great situation.

Now anger is of no use, the urgent matter is to quickly enhance his own strength.

"Nascent Soul!"

Yunqing Zhenren looked up to the sky, eyes flashing with unprecedented determination and commitment.

Once he reaches Nascent Soul, then everything will have hope for change.

...

Meanwhile.

The news of the Water Lake Rat advancing to Fourth Rank Demon Monarch already spread in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, causing the entire sect to buzz with excitement.

Though the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons already has Fourth Rank Demon Monarchs, each addition of a Fourth Rank Demon King boosts their strength significantly.

Many disciples gathered at the forbidden tribulation land, just to witness the newfound Fourth Rank Demon King’s elegance and feel the grand and mighty aura of that Fourth Rank Demon Qi.

Near the great black pit, Xu Ping and True Monarch Lan Ling remained at the original location to protect.

The Water Lake Rat just passed three calamities, smoothly advancing to Fourth Rank.

Currently in a crucial period of fluctuating aura, unstable realm, needing to slowly digest the insights of the Dao and consolidate its realm.

It would take at least a month.

"Elder Yan."

True Monarch Lan Ling turned to Xu Ping, with a slight smile on his lips, "Now that the Rat True Monarch broke through to Fourth Rank transformation, it’s a significant event for the entire Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, even having a certain impact on the situation in Great Xia Country."

"According to tradition, a ’Transformation Ceremony’ should be held."

The birth of a transformed great demon in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons is comparable to gaining a Nascent Soul True Monarch, and by customary practice indeed requires hosting a grand ceremony, widely inviting various forces to celebrate.

This serves as both a declaration of the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons’ growing power and a vital opportunity to showcase sect strength to the outside.
