Chapter 519 - 264: Another Awakening 3

In this way, combining various conditions, there’s indeed a possibility for the Southern Dragon to defy destiny and rebel against him.

But that is only in conventional terms!

Shen Hex has never been conventional; he possesses Professional Power. To become the ruler of the Zhou Dynasty and gain Southern Land Dragon Qi, the primary condition is to have the Ziwei Assistant Star in his destiny, like Li Mubai and others, becoming his assistant minister.

Once the Assistant Star enters the destiny, there would be no resistance against him, the Master of Ziwei.

Even if we take a step back and say that the Upper Realm Celestial Destiny is extraordinary and can withstand the professional influence of the [Ziwei Star] by sheer force to rebel against him, Shen Hex wouldn’t care.

If he wants to rebel, then let him rebel!

The fundamental aim of Shen Hex’s endeavors over the years has been to reduce the Dragon Qi, and even to break the historical reincarnation of the world competing for the dragon.

He plans to establish a Divine Kingdom on earth!

Replacing monarch power with divine power, suppressing Dragon Qi with Divine Power, the world reveres the divine, and he is revered in the Divine Dao!

To put it simply, he wants to become an existence like the "Celestial Emperor," ruling both the Celestial Dao and governing the Human Dao.

But is the Celestial Emperor’s position so easily attained?

At the very least, it requires a "True Dragon" for blood sacrifice; otherwise, how to replace monarch power with divine power and suppress Dragon Qi?

So, if he wants to rebel, then let him rebel; Shen Hex is precisely lacking a sufficiently weighty sacrifice to pave his way to the Celestial Emperor and build his Divine Kingdom on earth.

Summing up, although the situation carries some variables, excluding the descending existential threat from above, Shen Hex can handle it calmly.

Therefore, there is no need to think much, just wait quietly; time is on his side and will help him become the ultimate victor.

Compared to these intrigues, Shen Hex is more concerned with his cultivation.

A hundred years have passed!

He has painstakingly studied the Daoist Scripture Collection and explored the laws of the Divine Dao Third Grade, now bearing fruits.

Naturally, there is some gain.

But not entirely.

The marvelousness of the Divine Dao and the difficulty of the Third Grade exceeded expectations.

A hundred years have passed, and Shen Hex still hasn’t thoroughly comprehended the Daoist Scripture Collection, not to mention advancing to the Third-Grade Venerable Position.

Thankfully, despite lacking thorough understanding, he’s reached the critical point.

One step, just the last step, and he will enter that celestial domain.

Therefore, Shen Hex disregards external matters and immerses his mind deeply into the scriptures.

The Third-Grade Venerable Position corresponds to Tier Ten!

The cultivation of Tier Twelve is said to be "Three Gates and One Celestial Layer," meaning, three gate realms constitute one celestial layer, greatly different.

The reality is indeed so.

Taking Immortal Dao as an example, Gathering Spirit, Cultivation Technique, and Qi Refining could form one celestial layer, focusing on refining nature’s spiritual energy into Cultivation Magical Power.

Then, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, and Nascent Soul form another celestial layer, emphasizing the further integration of nature’s spiritual energy with the human Dao body, establishing the Dao Foundation, thus achieving Golden Core Nascent Soul.

Following this, Divinity Transformation, Returning Void, and Integration fundamentally cultivate the Primordial Spirit, comprehend the celestial principles, return to void, unify in integration, thereby deepening the cultivator’s understanding of Spiritual Qi’s essence, celestial principles’ comprehension.

And the final three gates, Mahayana, Crossing the Tribulation, True Immortal, establish and create one’s own "Dao," imitating the heavens, on the basis of integration.

The Great Dao is infinite, all paths lead to the same destination; as such is the cultivation of the Immortal Dao, similarly is the Divine Dao where to enter the Third-Grade realm demands integrating with the heavens, comprehending the principles of the Great Dao, utilizing them for personal growth, ultimately achieving self-completion.

Simple to say, extraordinarily difficult to accomplish.

Shen Hex has painstakingly cultivated for a hundred years, studied for a long time, assessed countless possibilities, and still couldn’t push open that final portal.

But a diligent heart shall not be futile; like water shaping the stone through persistent drop, like iron made needle through tedious grind.

Celestial Dao rewards diligence, as long as you don’t abandon, there will eventually be a return.

In this manner, unknown how long has passed.

Within the Magic Realm, inside the temple, a sudden sound was heard.

"I... have realized!"

One statement, countless sentiments, finally the hardships paid off, breakthrough crossed the mysterious threshold of heaven and earth.

Concurrently, the lingering feelings turned into a long howl, shaking the Yin and Yang Realms.
