Eternal Reverence

"Emperor Deep Herb?"

Li Fuchen didn't expect for the White Bone Devil Emperor's storage bag to hide a stalk of Emperor Deep Herb.

The Emperor Deep Herb was a heaven class mid-tier herb and it was a rare herb that could nourish and strengthen the dantian. The medicinal effects were comparable with a 10,000-year Rootless Flower. If a Primary Sea Realm monarch consumed the Emperor Dark Herb, the dantain would instantly reach the Law Phase Realm.

"This is heaven's will right?" Li Fuchen thought silently.

Li Fuchen spared the White Bone Devil Emperor once, but the latter came looking for death and conveniently delivered the Emperor Dark Herb too. One was wanting to drink, while the other was wanting to give. If this wasn't heaven's will, what was?

"With this stalk of Emperor Dark Herb, progressing to the Law Phase Realm is certain."

Taking a deep breath, Li Fuchen consumed the Emperor Dark Herb. In just a short moment, the Emperor Dark Herb was gradually getting refined.

Streaks of black streams were surging towards the dantian.

…

It was unknown how long had elapsed, but when the last streak of black stream was absorbed by the dantian, Li Fuchen felt as though his dantian was completely empty.

It was mainly due to the expansion of dantian space and lack of qi.

In the past, his dantian was stuffed with qi and it was relatively difficult to break through one level. Had it not been for the large consumption of Rootless Flowers, Li Fuchen would only be at the mid-levels of Primary Sea Realm.

"I am finally at the Law Phase Realm."

Li Fuchen let out a forceful breath and took out the peak-grade spirit stone from his storage bag. This peak-grade spirit stone still had plenty of remaining qi and it was enough for him to push his qi cultivation to the Law Phase Realm.

"Let's begin!"

Li Fuchen circulated the Divine Flame Sword Energy Technique and frenziedly absorbed the spirit qi within the peak-grade spirit stone.

After absorbing around 30% of the spirit qi, Li Fuchen's qi cultivation smoothly broke through to the Law Phase Realm.

Boom!

Above the Long Wind Mountains, laws resonated and a willpower appeared out of nowhere from the universe.

At the same time, a law phase slowly arose.

This law phase resembled Li Fuchen and was very condensed. The surface of the law phase even had a layer of faint flames. The most peculiar thing was that the law phase actually carried a sword on its back, an ancient-looking battle sword.

Huff Huff Huff Huff…

In the sky, small mountain-sized fire spheres were blasted at the law phase. At the same time, there were plenty of sword lights slashing at the law phases too.

The fire calamity and the sword calamity had descended at the same time.

When a martial artist broke through to the Primary Sea Realm, a calamity would descend, therefore it was naturally for a calamity to descend when a martial artist broke through to the Law Phase Realm too.

The attribute of the calamity was related to the cultivation technique.

Yan Qingwu cultivated a saber dao technique, therefore, her calamity was a saber calamity.

Li Fuchen cultivated the blazing flame sword dao, therefore, his calamities were the fire calamity and the sword calamity.

The fire and sword calamities were rather ferocious. Yang Deng and Yang Long who were alerted felt that if they were the ones receiving the calamity, they would certainly perish.

The fire spheres blasted large pits on the law phase, while the sword lights slashed out sword wounds on the law phase.

It was fortunate that Li Fuchen was constantly circulating his technique, allowing the law phase to constantly get restored.

First wave, second wave, third wave…

After getting tempered by the calamity waves, Li Fuchen's law phase was getting increasingly condensed and materialized. His qi cultivation was definitely getting purer too.

Soon enough, the seventh wave of calamity arrived and it was a blazing flame sword light.

The blazing flame sword light was extremely ferocious. Li Fuchen's law phase was first cleaved open and the sword wound exploded, expanding the wound by over ten times.

"Unsheathe!"

Originally, the law phase's eyes were tightly shut, but when Li Fuchen yelled out, the law phase suddenly opened its eyes. The battle sword on the back was unsheathed and a single slash scattered dozens of blazing flame sword light.

In just a short moment, the seventh wave of calamity was dispersed and the eighth wave descended.

It was also the blazing flame sword light, but the eighth wave was two times stronger. When the blazing flame sword light cleaved on the law phase, it melted like a candle as half its body was melted and exploded.

"Gather!"

Li Fuchen burst out with a shout and circulated the Divine Flame Sword Energy Technique to the extremity, allowing the law phase to rapidly recover.

After expending tremendous strength, Li Fuchen finally passed through the eighth wave.

It was fortunate that there was a reward. The calamity was a threat and also a chance encounter.

The calamity's energy was the extremely pure energy within heaven and earth. It was extremely easy to absorb and to a certain degree, it was even more precious than the spirit qi within the peak-grade spirit stone.

Shing!

The ninth wave of calamity arrived.

This time, it was the sound of a sword unsheathing that could be heard first. The sound was filled with terrifying power and when the sound echoed, the entire spatial zone was frozen.

"The great dao of sword?" Yan Qingwu's eyes contracted.

The great dao represented the pinnacle. It represented the limits of what this spatial zone could endure.

It might only be a presence of the great dao of sword, but it was still extremely unusual.

According to what Yan Qingwu knew, such a great dao phenomenon could only happen when breaking through to the Soul Merge Realm from the Law Phase Realm.

Not even peak-level saints were able to comprehend a complete great dao. People who could achieve that would be known as gods.

Without any sound or presence, a glaring sword light descended.

In the face of this sword light, everything felt as though it was insignificant and there was only this sword light.

Pfff!

Li Fuchen's law phase was instantly vanquished by the sword light. Even the mountain below Li Fuchen's feet was disintegrated by the sword light. The land appeared with an abyss. It was fortunate that Li Fuchen was receiving the calamity far from the core of the Long Wind Mountains, otherwise, it was unknown how much destruction would be caused.

"Such terrifying power!" Yan Qingwu frowned and carefully searched for Li Fuchen's figure.

She didn't believe that Li Fuchen would fail in this calamity. After all, no one could easily cause the great dao phenomenon like Li Fuchen.

Soon enough, Yan Qingwu found Li Fuchen as he was rapidly rising up in the abyss.

While he was rising, he rose along with a sword intent that pierced through the heaven dome.

The qi presence was more than ten times stronger than the pinnacle of the Primary Sea Realm.

"I actually caused the great dao of sword phenomenon."

Li Fuchen reckoned that it was due to the fact that he possessed the sword heart.

After all, the sword heart could only be condensed by a sword dao saint in normal situations.

The appearance of the great dao of sword phenomenon allowed Li Fuchen's cultivation to rapidly improve.

When everyone else broke through to the 1st level of Law Phase, they would only be able the initial state of the 1st level.

Even Yan Qingwu was only able to reach the later state of the 1st level.

Li Fuchen actually reached the peak state of 1st level Law Phase Realm.

Li Fuchen had a feeling that he only had to go into seclusion for a few days and would break through to the 2nd level of Law Phase Realm with ease.

…

One week later, just as Li Fuchen predicted, he successfully broke through to the 2nd level of Law Phase Realm without the use of the peak-grade spirit stone.

This was definitely unprecedented.

At least, it wasn't heard of by Yan Qingwu. She never heard of anyone breaking through to the 2nd level of Law Phase Realm within a week after they broke through to the Law Phase Realm.

Let alone one week, there weren't any cases that happened within one year.

Subsequently, Li Fuchen used the peak-grade spirit stone and quickly broke through to the 3rd level of Law Phase Realm.

At this moment, Li Fuchen's dantian was finally swelling again and was at the limit of his dantian.

Of course, even if Li Fuchen didn't reach his dantian limit, he wouldn't continue breaking through.

When breaking through from the peak level of Primary Sea Realm to the 1st level of Law Phase Realm, it used up 30% of the spirit qi in the peak-grade spirit stone. The breakthrough to the 3rd level of Phase Realm took up about 50% of the spirit qi. The remaining 20% of spirit qi wasn't enough for him to break through to the 4th level of Law Phase Realm.

"This peak-grade spirit stone is only left with around 20% of its spirit qi. See if it can allow you to break through to the 2nd level of Law Phase Realm."

Li Fuchen did a favor and gave the peak-grade spirit stone to Yan Qingwu.

"Thanks."

Yan Qingwu finally knew why Li Fuchen's cultivation progress was so fast. In general situations, even if a person's perception was heaven-defying, there was a need for an accumulation process. To bypass the accumulation process, one would need to rely on rare treasures like the peak-grade spirit stone.

Yan Qingwu's cultivation was already at the later state of 1st level Law Phase Realm. With the peak-grade spirit stone, she successfully broke through to the 2nd level of Law Phase Realm.
