Immortal Starry Sky-Chapter 643 - 618th Palace of Truth

Golden light burst forth from within Wang Xu, transforming his entire body into a statue of golden glass.

With the operation of "Phase," each time a large amount of Constant Spirit was consumed, the golden light on Wang Xu's body would shine even more brilliantly.

This indicated that the physical strength of Wang Xu's body would also rise to a new level.

The effects of the Dragon Charging Pill lasted for a full seven years.

During these seven years, Wang Xu remained in a state of frantically absorbing Constant Spirit, allowing his realm to completely break through to the Ancient Spirit Realm, from Early Stage to Middle Stage, Middle Stage to Late Stage, and from Late Stage to the peak — an entire great realm leap completed within just these short seven years.

Not only him, but You Ji also benefited from the realm surge, and like Wang Xu, he is now also at the peak of the Ancient Spirit Realm.

Now, even without "Phase," just relying on the power of two cores, Wang Xu's strength is enough to rival the Early Stage of the Emperor Spirit Realm!

But now, with "Phase" in place, and "Phase's" realm similarly skyrocketing, infinitely close to the Second Realm, Wang Xu's current strength can be said to have made a qualitative leap, able to contend against the Middle Stage of the Emperor Spirit Realm!

'The effects of the Dragon Charging Pill have ended.'

After seven years passed, the influx of Constant Spirit into Wang Xu's body suddenly slowed, causing Wang Xu to feel somewhat disappointed inside.

'Has "Phase" still not reached the Second Realm?' the voice of You Ji sounded.

'I can already sense the presence of the Second Realm of "Phase," but there's always a barrier in between that I can't break through.' Wang Xu shook his head and said.

The Second Realm of "Phase," the World of Body and Earth, allows the physical body to rival the Middle Stage of the Great Emperor Realm.

It must be known that within the entire Copper Medicine Tribe, there are only three individuals at the Middle Stage of the Great Emperor Realm, while there are many at the Early Stage, which shows the difference between the two is by no means the difference between Early and Middle when at the Ancient Spirit Realm or True Spirit Realm. Once reaching the Emperor Spirit Realm, even the slightest difference is magnified infinitely.

The Middle Stage of the Great Emperor Realm can completely crush those at the Early Stage of the Great Emperor Realm!

Wang Xu's current strength is merely comparable; when facing those at the Middle Stage of the Great Emperor Realm, at most, he can make it a draw, but in most cases, he still has to flee.

However, if "Phase" is elevated to the Second Realm, Wang Xu will have the capital to confront those at the Middle Stage of the Great Emperor Realm, no longer afraid; even if he can't kill the opponent, he can firmly suppress them!

...

The Tomb of Truth.

As a place for accumulating Truth, many people from the Copper Medicine Tribe come daily to absorb the Power of Truth to strengthen their Truth Weapons.

'Tai Xu Hall Master, here is the Tomb of Truth rewarded to you by the tribe, having accumulated nearly thirty million years of Truth Power. As long as you have the time, you can come here to refine your Truth Weapons.' The envoy sent by the Clan Leader explained before hastily taking leave.

The Tomb of Truth is akin to the clan monument of the Pua Tribe that Wang Xu encountered on the Third Layer, specifically for accumulating Truth Power.

In the Ganges Realm, weapons are not distinguished by high or low, only by the strength of the Truth Power within.

Even if it's a piece of broken copper or rusty iron, once injected with enough Truth Power, it can kill someone at the Emperor Spirit Realm!

Of course, Truth Power is not bestowed upon anyone for free; Wang Xu was gifted this for being ranked first, while others who were not gifted must use Stones of Eternal Spirit, rare elixirs, or other treasures to exchange for Truth Power.

'Greetings to Hall Master Tai Xu!'

'We've met Hall Master Tai Xu!'

While Wang Xu was granting the Bone Saber with Truth Power, many clan members also came to infuse their Truth Weapons with Truth Power and greeted Wang Xu respectfully.

Ranking first in the clan competition, Wang Xu's fame spread throughout the entire Copper Medicine Tribe, known by everyone.

Originally, the Clan Leader intended to personally train Wang Xu, but Wang Xu refused to apprentice under anyone, so reluctantly, the Clan Leader appointed him first as a hall master within the Copper Medicine Tribe.

"Buzz~"

After a long time, about half of the Truth Power was absorbed by the Bone Saber, emitting a soft vibrating sound, prompting Wang Xu to take it off.

Truth Power should not be infused too much at once; it must be measured according to the realm and strength of the weapon's owner.

"Thirteen million years of Truth Power indeed lives up to its name. I finally understand why Copper Medicine Fire is so formidable." Wang Xu casually swung the Bone Saber, clearly sensing its current power.

It must be known that during the initial confrontation, Wang Xu, having a physique comparable to the Early Stage of the Emperor Spirit Realm, easily dealt with Copper Medicine Fire, yet sensed that Copper Medicine Fire's power was not simple, even someone at the Late Stage of the Ancient Spirit Realm might not be his match.

In hindsight, it's the Truth Weapon at play, with the augmentation of Truth Weapon strength, elevating Copper Medicine Fire's strength by several levels.

Woosh woosh~

As the Bone Saber swung, the air trembled. In the Ganges Realm, the space is special; even with Emperor Spirit Realm strength, it cannot be easily broken.

It is believed that with Wang Xu's current peak Ancient Spirit Realm state, combined with an Early Stage Emperor Spirit Realm physique, and this Bone Saber refined with thirteen million years of Truth Power, the City Lord of Copper Medicine would likely not withstand even a single move from Wang Xu.

"Before leaving, my Truth Monument should also be placed here, letting it absorb the Power of Truth for my use." Wang Xu flipped his hand, and a miniature Truth Monument appeared in his palm. With a light toss, the Truth Monument expanded rapidly against the wind, turning into a three-meter-high monument, quickly absorbing the surrounding Power of Truth.

...

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

On the summit of the Lone Skeleton Peak, there is a massive cultivation field, specially paved by the main clan with sturdy stone bricks, strong enough to support cultivation by people in the Emperor Spirit Realm.

In the cultivation field, shadows flit across as Wang Xu glides with light steps, seemingly taking a casual stroll, yet his figure shifts like a phantom, moving so quickly that it dazzles the eyes.

A moment later, Wang Xu's figure finally came to a stop.

"'Assault' indeed deserves to be called a Truth Secret Technique. Even though it's merely one-fifth incomplete, the benefits it brings me are enormous!" Wang Xu, having cultivated 'Assault,' exclaimed with delight, "If I could obtain the remaining parts, I could probably face someone in the Late Stage of the Emperor Spirit Realm with ease."

The power of the Truth Secret Technique left Wang Xu astonished. No wonder there are only two Truth Secret Techniques in the entire Copper Medicine Clan, and they are not easily passed on.

"Hmm? Someone's coming."

Shortly after stopping his cultivation, a silhouette of a fierce flying beast protruded from the clouds outside the mountain, and with one look, Wang Xu saw the figure on the back of the fierce flying beast, "Tai Xu greets Elder Shumu!"

When the fierce flying beast landed on the cultivation field, the figure in the brown robe disembarked. Wang Xu nodded in greeting.

Elder Shumu is one of the twelve elders in the main Copper Medicine Clan. Initially, when Wang Xu refused to become the Clan Leader's disciple, Elder Shumu made several attempts to recruit Wang Xu into his own tutelage.

But Wang Xu's mind was already set, and no matter what enticing conditions Elder Shumu offered, Wang Xu did not agree.

"Lord Tai Xu, we meet again!" Elder Shumu said with a cheerful face.

"Elder Shumu, if you still wish for me to become your disciple, I'm afraid you made this trip in vain," Wang Xu replied with a slight smile.

"Haha," Elder Shumu laughed heartily, "Lord Tai Xu, I know your mind is made up; I won't pressure you anymore. This time, I'm here because the Clan Leader has something to convey to you."

"What is it?"

"I wonder if Lord Tai Xu has heard of the 'Palace of Truth'?" Elder Shumu asked in return.

"Palace of Truth?" Wang Xu shook his head, "I've never heard of it. I hope Elder Shumu can enlighten me."

"Then you should know of the Ganges Truth Tree?"

"Elder Shumu, you must be joking. Who doesn't know about the Ganges Truth Tree? Could there be some connection between the Palace of Truth and the Ganges Truth Tree?" Wang Xu replied.

"That's indeed the case. The Three Great Palaces of Truth are the guardian abodes of the Ganges Truth Tree, each overseen by three Venerable beings. It's said that the Scriptures of Truth held by the three Venerable beings were bestowed by the Ganges Truth Tree. Therefore, these three possess unparalleled power and are invincible super beings!" Upon speaking of this, Elder Shumu's expression turned solemn with reverence.

The Ganges Truth Tree is the Holy Land in the hearts of all Ganges beings. Every being in the Ganges Realm is a fervent devotee of the Ganges Truth Tree, much like how mortals worship their gods, existing to be admired and worshipped.

These three Venerable beings and the Three Great Palaces of Truth are decreed by the Ganges Truth Tree, equivalent to divine emissaries. Hearing about them naturally invokes a sense of reverence and devotion among the Ganges beings.

The Three Venerable beings… the Scripture of Truth… guarding the Ganges Truth Tree…

Wang Xu pondered carefully.

"Elder Shumu, I wonder which three these Three Great Palaces of Truth refer to," Wang Xu inquired.

"The Three Great Palaces of Truth are the 'Eternal Truth Palace,' the 'Palace of Supreme Truth,' and the 'Palace of Supreme Truth,'" Elder Shumu stated earnestly.

The 'Eternal Truth Palace' is guarded by 'Venerable Gua Ao.'

The 'Palace of Supreme Truth' is guarded by 'Venerable Fulu.'

The 'Palace of Supreme Truth' is guarded by 'Venerable Yaoze.'

These are the Three Great Palaces of Truth, each a colossal existence among the clouds. Compared to them, our Copper Medicine Clan is as insignificant as an ant.

"So these are the Three Great Palaces of Truth," Wang Xu nodded with a thoughtful expression, "Elder Shumu, I wonder why you asked if I knew about the Palace of Truth?"

"Lord Tai Xu, acting on orders from the Clan Leader, I've come to let you venture into the core region to see if you have the chance to enter the Palace of Truth," Elder Shumu flipped his hand and produced a parchment scroll, "This is from an informant the Copper Medicine Clan has infiltrated into the core area. Not long ago, they reported that the Eternal Truth Palace of the Three Great Palaces of Truth has opened its gates, inviting potential recruits from the entire core region. All the major powers and clans from the core area are sending envoys..."

"So, the Clan Leader wishes for me to try and see if I stand a chance in passing their test to enter the Eternal Truth Palace?" Wang Xu interrupted Elder Shumu.

"Exactly, that's the plan," Elder Shumu nodded, "You probably know Copper Medicine He Xian, who didn't attend the clan's grand competition this time because the Palace of Supreme Truth opened its doors to recruit students decades ago, prompting him to journey there."

So that's why Copper Medicine He Xian didn't show up; it turns out he went to the Palace of Truth!

Wang Xu realized.

"Lord Tai Xu, this is a stroke of luck for you! The opportunity for the Three Great Palaces of Truth to open their doors is incredibly rare. In the past millions of years, they have opened fewer than ten times. Just after the Palace of Supreme Truth finished recruiting students, I didn't expect the Eternal Truth Palace to open so soon. If our Copper Medicine Clan can have two students in the Palace of Truth, breaking into the core region would be within reach sooner than expected!" (To be continued.
