Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel-Chapter 537 - 376: Changing the Pattern

At that time, many would likely believe that ‘Chu Zheng’ was not thoroughly dead.

However, Chu Zheng didn’t need to concern himself with this for now; dissolving the Tribulation Qi as much as possible was the priority.

Besides, experiencing the feeling of having the whole world as an enemy in advance wouldn’t be of much harm to him.

…

…

Boundary.

Qi Water Star Domain.

To Immortal Path Cultivators, the Cosmic Edge was a bitterly cold land. Apart from the Heaven Passes enshrined within arrays, maintaining normal cultivation was difficult, and replenishing battle consumptions was also strenuous.

Fighting here for years would gradually wear away one’s foundation.

Chu Zheng sat cross-legged under the starry sky, continuously operating the Qi-refining Technique, extracting the Five Elements Primordial Qi from the surrounding dead stars to nourish his internal organs.

The dead stars lacked complete Five Elements, usually containing Earth Element Primordial Qi and the Gold Element Primordial Qi precipitated by Earth Qi Birth Gold.

The Five Elements Primordial Qi in the starry sky had not yet been converted for the Immortal Path’s use and couldn’t be directly absorbed. Even a Five Tribulations True Immortal needed to store it in a Grotto Heaven and spend some time converting and decomposing it to obtain immortal power.

But Chu Zheng had no such restriction.

Once his internal Five Elements circulation took shape, now any kind of Primordial Qi was a great supplement for him, eliminating the worry of internal Five Elements imbalance.

This was the enhancement of the Immortal Path on the Qi-refining Technique; as the cultivation level rose, the Immortal Path began to completely return the favor.

Moreover, having temporarily lost the disturbance of Tribulation Qi, his Qi Refinement’s Cultivation grew almost daily.

The Primordial Qi and immortal power could now be freely transformed within him. His Immortal Path cultivation continued to steadily rise in this spiritually barren land, steadily advancing toward the Five Tribulations Perfection Realm.

After achieving Five Elements Perfection, the next stage would be Yin Yang Realm and Yin Yang Tribulations, beginning from within.

Unlike ordinary Immortal Path Cultivators, his two paths were cultivated simultaneously, and his Primordial Spirit was already divided into Two Sides of Yin and Yang. Additionally, due to the Qi Refining Thunder Technique, he had long been exposed to the transformation of the Five Elements into Yin and Yang.

The Yin Yang Tribulation posed little difficulty for him, being nothing more than a natural progression.

Buzz—

The Monitoring Jade Token’s fluctuations brought Chu Zheng out of meditation. After glancing at the message, his eyes narrowed slightly.

[All factions are to cease hostilities. The Martial Ancestor and the Immortal Ancestor have reestablished the alliance to jointly resist the Vast Universe.]

[The Martial Hall’s reinforcements will soon arrive at the Boundary. Inform all divisions that if provoked, they must unconditionally retreat and set aside all public and private grievances for now.]

[The Immortal Ancestor is seeking a method to repair the Boundary, and has made some progress.]

The few transmitted messages contained a lot of information.

The Immortal Alliance and the Martial Hall had broken apart previously; the people from the Martial Hall he had encountered could not be isolated examples.

It was evident that the Martial Hall had been intentionally seeking opportunities to provoke disputes, directly initiating a Dao War.

The Boundary had been shattered for some time. If the pressure from the Vast Universe was really that great, the Martial Hall would not have taken those actions previously.

This clearly was not the main reason.

What could make these two factions put down their grudges and negotiate peace? It likely means some unknown changes had occurred.

According to Chu Zheng’s own speculation, there might be a certain imbalance of power between the Immortal Path and Martial Path.

Either the Immortal Alliance had gained some new power, leading the Martial Hall to compromise, or the Martial Hall’s strength had further increased, forcing the Immortal Alliance to bow.

However, from the message, the latter seemed more likely.

As for repairing the Boundary, it shouldn’t be a huge problem.

The Boundary was initially established by the Ancestral Dao, Ancestor of Ancient Immortals, and Ancient Martial Ancestor together.

At that time, the Second-fold Immortal Martial was at its peak, advancing side by side. With the Ancestral Dao, they gathered nearly ninety percent of the Great Universe’s Heavenly Fate to create the Boundary.

The Great Universe relied on the Boundary to stabilize the Yin Yang barrier, blocking the calamity of the Vast Universe at the Cosmic Edge.

Without the Boundary, a passage to the Vast Universe could open anywhere in the Great Universe, which would be true purgatory.

Now, the Second-fold Immortal Martial, along with the Myriad Realms, held the same ninety percent of Heavenly Fate, enough to recreate the glory of the past.

…

…

Less than half a month after receiving the message, Martial Hall reinforcements arrived in the Qi Water Star Domain.

The Heaven Pass station where Chu Zheng was located was the last line of defense, and the first stop upon entering the battlefield.

Bang—

The starry sky tore open a gap, with fiery, glass-like cracks emerging. A Six-winged Celestial Horse wreathed in flames stepped out of the space channel first, its hooves radiating divine brilliance capable of melting stars.

When the celestial horse fully stretched its wings, it nearly obscured the entire starry sky. The surrounding arrays lit up with ripples, almost unable to withstand the pressure and threatening to shatter.

The Bronze Ancient War Chariot followed behind the celestial horse, rolling out of the space channel and hovering quietly above Heaven Pass.

On the chariot stood numerous figures, their overwhelming blood qi sweeping across the star river.

Chu Zheng and Pang Tianlei, accompanied by the True Immortals within Heaven Pass, looked on with solemn expressions.

Suppressing the spiritual light in his eyes, Chu Zheng felt a slight tremor in his heart, realizing that none of the beings atop this chariot were to be taken lightly.

The celestial horse pulling the chariot alone was an Otherkind strong enough to rival a Nine Tribulations True Immortal.

Leading them was an Initial Stage Great Saint named Ji Shanming, accompanied by two hundred and forty-one Martial Saints.

These Martial Saints, despite their young age, were the Martial Hall’s elite warriors.

The leading Great Saint of Martial Path stepped off the chariot in a single stride, appearing before Chu Zheng and the others, his gaze coldly sweeping over the True Immortals present.

After a while, his eyes settled on Chu Zheng.

To be precise, it was on the Monitoring Jade Token hanging from Chu Zheng’s waist:

“Punishment Authority?”

Hearing this, Chu Zheng stepped forward, slightly bowed, and cupped his hands in salute:

“Immortal Alliance, Chief of Punishment Department, Inspector Chu Zheng, greets Great Saint.”

“Chu Zheng…”

Upon hearing the name, Ji Shanming’s expression changed slightly. After pondering for a moment, his expression changed dramatically, and he said with undisguised surprise:

“You are Chu Zheng?!”
