Chapter 201 Slapping Jiang Ming In the Face

Jiang Ming headed toward the Heavenly Ladder and climbed onto it.

As soon as his feet fell on the first step, his mind was ambushed by an attack that was on the True Immortal Realm. For every step he took, the attack would become stronger. By the time he reached the ninth level, the attack was at the True Immortal Realm.

However, he remained steadfast, unaffected by the attack. He continued to climb the ladder without stopping. Very soon, he arrived at the 18th level, and the attack on his mind was on the level of Mystical Immortal Realm.

Although he felt pressured, he could handle the attack.

“I’m expecting Golden Immortal’s level attack on the next level, but I’m sure I can get through it without fail! It’s just that I wonder where my limit is? My inner world has successfully evolved into a perfect planar world, and my vast origin force is equivalent to that of the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm. Perhaps I should try challenging the oppression from the Taiyi Realm.”

With that thought in mind, Jiang Ming stepped on the 19th level.

As soon as he stepped on the 11th level, a black spot appeared in his mind. It rapidly expanded and turned into an immense black hole, swirling and devouring his mind and will.

Jiang Ming was stunned, but he soon came around to his senses.

“Don’t you dare look down on me! Great Protection Technique, the Radiance of Heart!”

Jiang Ming activated a skill to protect his mind and willpower, yet he was still unable to stop the terrifying suction force of the black hole.

On the outside, his body was shaking and his face was pale as a sheet of paper. There were cold sweats beading on his forehead, and in a blink of an eye, his vision turned black and he fell down.

“How is that possible?”.

He lifted his head to look upward with an incredulous expression on his face.

He thought he was able to pass the test effortlessly, but it turned out that he was wrong. “This is strange!”

Jiang Ming did not know what went wrong. After all, he could feel that his willpower was much stronger than the force of the black hole.

He sat down and took a short break. After that, he stepped onto the Heavenly Ladder once again with full confidence that he was able to conquer the 19th level this time, but little did he expect that he would fail at the 19th level again.

‘What is going on? Could it be that the Golden Immortal Realm is different?’ Jiang Ming thought inwardly, ‘No, I have to find out why.’

He took a deep breath to calm himself before coming to the Heavenly Battle Stage. He came to the first stage, and he was paired up against a Heavenly Immortal expert. Without a doubt, his opponent this time was none other than Jun Sanqian.

“Wow, impressive. Your inner world has evolved into a perfect planar world,” Jun Sanqian said after he studied Jiang Ming from head to toe. “Although your inner world has granted you extraordinary combat prowess, there is one downside and it’s very difficult to ascend into the next level. Of course, there’s one benefit as well. Once you step into a certain level of the world, you can keep improving until you reach your limit. You’re at your limit now, and if you want to break through it, you’ll need some opportunities.

“That being said, you can consider yourself very lucky. You have… Hahaha! I wouldn’t say it’s a bad idea…. Well, you know what? It’s actually a brilliant idea. Maybe you’re the only person in this universe who can evolve your inner world to the great chiliocosm,” Jun Sanqian said, laughing loudly at the same time.

Jiang Ming lifted his eyebrows as a thought surfaced in his head.

‘Could it be that he knows what I’ve been doing with the Reincarnation Hall? If that’s the case, then Jun Sanqian might be someone of great consequences, and the background of the Supreme Tower might be beyond imagination.’

“Thank you for your suggestion, senior,” Jiang Ming replied, “Senior, I have a question, and I hope you can give me an answer for it. My inner world has evolved into a perfect planar world, so by right, I should’ve mastered the power of the Golden Immortal Realm, but why couldn’t I defend myself against the mind attack of the Golden Immortal Realm?”

“Well, you’ve already answered your question yourself. You said ‘should’ve,’ right?” Jun Sanqian clasped his hand behind his back, sat in the air, and answered patiently, “The Golden Immortal Realm is a special realm for all of the cultivation methods including immortal, divine, necromantic, spiritual, demonic, combat, killing, and soul.

“Gold will never decay. Once you’ve reached the Golden Immortal Realm, regardless of your body or Primal Spirit, they won’t decay. An immortal will die eventually. However, a golden immortal could be freed from the shackles of life and live for an eternity. They won’t need to go through any tribulation, and they can go on with their lives without any worries.

“Although there’s only one level difference between a level 13 Mystical Immortal and a level 14 Golden Immortal, the latter is on a whole different level compared to the former. For example, level 10 is just a mortal, but a level 11 is an immortal.

“Even though you pick the path of improving your inner world, and your origin force is as massive as that of the Golden Immortal Realm, there’s still a fundamental difference between both.

“You don’t have the Dao, the immortality, the special abilities, and the willpower of a Golden Immortal.

“If we’re looking at the quantity, it’s without a doubt that you’re there, but in terms of quality, it’s so much worse.

“The changes of quantity cause the changes of quality, but yours is like a plate of loose sand that scatters all over the place, so how is there any possibility you can withstand a mental attack of a Golden Immortal? The attacks here are measured by the standard of the geniuses across the universe.

“You might be able to do it outside, but here, it’s impossible.”

Jun Sanqian explained everything in detail to Jiang Ming.

“Does this mean that I have the combat prowess of a Golden Immortal?” Jiang Ming asked.

“Exactly,” Jun Sanqian smiled, “You want to ask why you’d fail the Heavenly Ladder so quickly, right?”

When he saw Jiang Ming nodding, he continued, “The reason is simple. Have you ever trained your willpower?”

Jiang Ming was stunned.

“Have you participated in a great war before?” Jun Sanqian continued, “Have you been in a life-or-death situation before? No,

right?”

Jiang Ming smiled bitterly, “You’re right. I’ve been sleeping here for a very long time in order to evolve my inner world.”

“See?” Jun Sanqian smiled. He lifted his finger and an ocean appeared before his vision. The waves were large and ran high. Afterward, the ocean began to shrink and change until it became a droplet of water.

“Essentially, there is no difference between an ocean and this drop of water,” Jun Sanqian said, “An ocean can, at most, flood the land, but this drop of water can destroy the world. Can you understand now?”

It went without saying that Jiang Ming could understand what he was trying to say.

What Jun Sanqian was trying to say was that he was outwardly strong, but in truth, he was weak.

“Not only your willpower, but it can also be applied to your special abilities and other techniques as well. Anyway, are you ready for a fight now?” Jun Sanqian asked as he rose to his feet.

“Sure!”

Jiang Ming charged toward Jun Sanqian, but he did not kill him right away.

While they were fighting, he was honing his skills as well. In the end, he defeated Jun Sanqian and went on to the next stage.

When he arrived at the fourth stage, he was going up against two Heavenly Immortal experts.

The seventh stage was a True Immortal expert, while the tenth stage was a Mystical Immortal Expert.

He defeated all of them with practised ease and came to the 13th stage.

Without any surprise, his opponent this time was Jun Sanqian. He looked at Jiang Ming and laughed, “I’m a Golden Immortal expert, but judging from your previous performance, it might not be that easy to beat me. Come, young man, make your move!”

“Here I come, senior!” Jiang Ming bowed at him and activated his World Projection. Then, he brandished his sword and cast the Grand World Dharma.

The Grand World Dharma was a skill he developed after fusing spatial and time Dao. With a swipe of his sword, he could freeze time and space, and it was the strongest restriction technique he had ever developed.

However, Jun Sanqian was able to break himself free without any difficulty. At the same time, he said, “This is still a Dao belonging to the mortal world. Although it’s a fusion of space and time, it’s too primitive, and it won’t have any effect on an expert like me!

“You have great power, but your level is too low. If you want to defeat me, you might stand a chance if you use your Return of Infinite Law Finger. Other than that, it’s useless.

“You have a massive amount of mana and your origin is as vast as a sea. When you’re fighting against an expert like me, you can only try to overwhelm me with force. If you think you can defeat me with your special abilities, there’s only one ending for you, dead!

“After all, I can crush and neutralize all of your special abilities without any problem,” Jun Sanqian said.

Jiang Ming nodded and activated the Sky Shattering Sword Technique, and the Return of Infinite Law Finger. However, he still couldn’t defeat Jun Sanqian.

In the end, he had no other choices but to use his Unlimited Killing Punch. That being said, the result was the same.

He couldn’t defeat Jun Sanqian. After a long while, he was stabbed through his forehead by Jun Sandian.

Not long after, Jiang Ming came to the 13th stage and asked for guidance from Jun Sanqian.

He wanted to know what he should do right now to improve himself. After all, his inner world had reached its limit, and it was too difficult and hard to advance in a short period of time.

Jun Sanqian suggested that he should cultivate the Heavenly Immortal Law.

In the immortal realm, each level corresponded to a different law and different Dao Fruition.

Another way was to train his willpower as well as the Return of Infinite Law Finger. At the same time, he also suggested to him that he should come to the Heavenly Battle Stage more often to hone his skills as well as to gain knowledge of the higher sword techniques.

“In other words, I just need to cultivate one out of the 3,000 laws and I could enter the Heavenly Immortal Realm. But…”

Jiang Ming hesitated.

Once he stepped into the Heavenly Immortal Realm, did that not mean that he had to leave his sect?

However, he was soon relieved when he thought of the function of the Human Paths Record.

Since the Human Paths Record was able to prevent the Reincarnation Hall and the Lord God Space from forcibly sending their beneficiaries back, he was certain that it would be able to do something about his condition to avoid him from getting rejected by his world.

Ascension?

He had never thought of it before.

He was the strongest in the mortal world, but once he ascended, he would become nothing but a small fry. Why should he aggravate himself? It was not like he could not become even stronger anymore.

“Time is heard. I should pick space instead, and reach the Golden Immortal Realm directly!”

After Jiang Ming had made up his mind, he told his thoughts to Jun Sanqian. Jun Sandian shook his head and said, “You take on the path of evolving your inner world, so you just need to work on developing the laws in your inner world and it would reflect on your body. Similarly, the Dao you learned outside would also be reflected on your inner world too. Once a certain Dao becomes too powerful, it’ll tilt the balance of the inner world, mess up the process of creation. In the end, your inner world might even collapse.”

“What?” Jiang Ming was shocked, “Something like that could happen also?”

“Haha, of course!” Jun Sanqian laughed, “Both dangers and opportunities exist on the path to become immortal. One step wrong, you will be destroyed. Therefore, you need to be extra careful. Your inner world has reached the limit, but it’s too difficult and it would take a lot of time to become a small chiliocosm.

“However, you can cultivate the 3,000 Heavenly Immortal Laws. Once you’ve learned all of them, it’ll naturally drive the changes of your origin and the world will evolve. Of course, you don’t need to learn all of the 3,000 Heavenly Immortal Laws. You only need to comprehend the basic laws that build the world, and then push the inner world laws to diffuse themselves and gradually transform.

“In fact, it would be faster for you to directly comprehend the 3,000 Heavenly Immortal Laws instead. After all, you have enough foundation, so it shouldn’t be a problem for you, and this place is the best spot for cultivation. Besides, you’re not lacking in points too.

“No one is more suitable than you to cultivate the World Dao,” Jun Sanqian lamented.

“Thank you for your guidance, senior. If it hadn’t been for you, things would’ve gone badly,” Jiang Ming said.

He was truly grateful to Jun Sanqian.

Although he had the system as well as the Human Paths Record, no one could give him any guidance in cultivation.

Dongfang Chenxi had given him a lot of help, but she did not know many things.

After he left the Heavenly Battle Stage, he stepped on the Heavenly Ladder to train his willpower.

After that, he came to the Heavenly Monument on the left side of the square and began to study the Heavenly Immortal Dao.

The Grand Path Almighty Method Sutra had become different as well.

In front of the Wood Heavenly Monument.

After roughly an hour, a surge of energy erupted from Jiang Ming. It was the energy of the Heavenly Immortal Law.

At this moment, the trees, vines, and seagrasses in his inner world began to grow at a rapid pace.

In the meantime, the Grand Path Almighty Method Sutra, which had been silent for a long time, finally started to react and Jiang Ming’s soul was transforming.

His body was undergoing a transformation at this moment. In comparison, the transformation on his body was the most intense and had the greatest magnitude of improvement.

“Although the origin of the inner world didn’t improve much, after entering the Heavenly Immortal Realm, my combat prowess has improved by leaps and bounds!” Jiang Ming was beyond excited.

It was true that his combat prowess had improved by leaps and bounds, but he also noticed something. The Astral Formation had lost its effect.

The Astral Formation was a special ability of the mortal world. However, he had become immortal, so the Astral Formation would work on him anymore.

Heavenly Monument, Heavenly Ladder, Heavenly Battle Stage, and Million Dao Chart.

Jiang Ming kept rotating in these four places, and his strength kept improving.

People were coming into the Supreme Tower from time to time. However, other than Zhan Ge and the others, he did not care about the rest.

Time was passing slowly.

If he was outside right now, a lot of time must have passed, but time did not work here in the Supreme Tower.

On the Heavenly Ladder, Jiang Ming stood on the 27th level.

His body shook, but he did not fall down, and this meant that he had passed the test.

Jiang Ming did not continue the Heavenly Ladder. He went to the Heavenly Battle Stages and fought with Jun Sanqian for three days and three nights. One day, he seized the chance and pierced Jun Sanqian’s forehead.

On the 13th stage, he was defeated by Jun Sanqian again, who was at the early stage of the Golden Immortal Realm.

“I guess it’s time for me to go out. If I stay here any longer, I’ll become crazy.”

He had cultivated in seclusion for too long.

Although he was very spirited, his mind and heart were exhausted.

He figured that he needed to take a good rest.

Just when he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and he froze.

“I’ve stepped into the Heavenly Immortal Realm, how come I’m still stuck at this level?”
