A great emperor master every day—the good-for-nothing young master is having a blast!

Many cultivation resources are also available for the Xuan Yun Holy Land to compete for, and Mu Xin and Yao Yu had already learned about this months ago.

A spiritual spring has been discovered within the territory of the Great Yuan Dynasty. Source cultivators below the King Realm who enter it will experience a significant boost in their cultivation.

Such an excellent place for cultivation is a competition even among king-level forces that are subordinate to the Great Yuan Dynasty.

Excluding the people of the Great Yuan Dynasty, only thirty slots are available for various king-level forces, and whether or not they can enter depends on the efforts of each king-level force.

Originally, Xuanyun Holy Land was not qualified to compete, but as Xuanyun Daoist broke through to the King Realm, Xuanyun Holy Land successfully returned to the ranks of King-level forces.

Therefore, Xuan Yun Holy Land should rightfully have a share in this battle for the Spirit Spring.

After an unknown amount of time, Xuan Yun Daoist's cultivation had reached the peak of the third level of the King Realm, only one step away from the fourth level.

But what happened next was different from what he had imagined. The power that had never weakened and had been steadily increasing suddenly showed signs of decline for the first time.

A moment later, his cultivation successfully broke through to the fourth level of the King Realm, but this time it was different from before. Due to the decline in power, the process of advancement was no longer as smooth as before.

The effects of the Tonghai Nine Jade Pill were gradually coming to an end, helping Daoist Xuanyun break through four levels of cultivation at the King Realm level.

This is already the limit of a seventh-grade supreme pill. Next, it will exert its last bit of power to help Daoist Xuanyun break through to a higher level of cultivation.

"My strength is starting to decline; it seems my cultivation will stop at the fourth level of the King Realm."

Is there any chance of advancing to the fifth level of the King Realm, even if there is only a slight possibility?

Xuan Yun Daoist also keenly noticed this, and the power within his body and the source energy that continuously poured into the source sea showed obvious signs of decline.

This is enough to show that this training is about to end, having progressed from the half-step King Realm to where he is now.

Xuan Yun Daoist was already satisfied. His initial request was very simple; he only wanted to heal his injuries.

He couldn't believe that a single pill could have such a powerful effect, easily helping him break through to the coveted King Realm and even helping him advance through layer after layer of cultivation.

At this point, his King Realm Level 4 was enough for him to establish himself in the Lingyuan Mountains.

Xuan Yun Daoist was well aware that since his master's death, Xuan Yun Holy Land had fallen out of the ranks of king-level forces, and most of its influence had disappeared from the Lingyuan Mountains.

But now that he has broken through to the King Realm, he wants to quickly regain all the lost power of speech.

All of this was thanks to Chen Yue's pill, which not only changed the fate of Xuan Yun Daoist, but also the fate of Xuan Yun Holy Land, and even the existing structure of the Lingyuan Mountain Range.

Xuan Yun Daoist used his remaining strength to strive towards the fifth level of the King Realm.

This process seemed so long to him, and even though he had exhausted all his strength, Xuan Yun Daoist still wanted to pursue that little bit of possibility.

After an unknown amount of time, Xuan Yun Daoist could clearly feel that all the power within his body had been absorbed.

The previously damaged Origin Sea has actually grown several times larger with each breakthrough in his cultivation.

The spiritual abode nourished by the source sea has long since shed its initial simple appearance and gradually grown into a magnificent palace.

Xuan Yun Daoist's cultivation level was just at the peak of the fourth level of the King Realm, and he no longer had any power in his body to help him break through to a higher level.

The final barrier to reaching the fifth level of the King Realm was more difficult for Daoist Xuanyun than ascending to heaven.

But he still didn't give up. This was the best time for him to strike while the iron was hot, and he would give up easily at this point.

Therefore, breaking through to the fifth level of the King Realm next time will only be much more difficult than this time.

Xuan Yun Daoist held his breath and concentrated all his attention, mobilizing the source power within his source sea to launch a full-scale attack.

If you exert all your strength to break through that seemingly nonexistent barrier, you will naturally transition from the fourth level of the King Realm to the fifth level.

Those outside the circle quickly noticed the changes in Xuan Yun Daoist.

The source energy that had been continuously surrounding his body gradually disappeared from a moment ago until now, when it has vanished without a trace.

The remarkable signs after the pill's effects wore off made it clear that Xuan Yun Daoist's cultivation would soon stop increasing, and he would most likely awaken in the next second.

The group waited patiently, occasionally gazing at the natal source image in the sky, which had grown considerably larger than before.

During this time, the group kept observing Xuan Yun Dao Ren's expression, waiting for the moment he opened his eyes.

Contrary to their expectations, Xuan Yun Daoist's expression gradually turned ugly, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

Mu Xin said solemnly, "Senior Brother wants to break through to the fifth level of the King Realm on his own..."

Yao Yu said softly, "Without the effects of the pills, can Senior Brother still do it?"

Mu Xin made a shushing gesture, indicating that the others should not say another word to avoid disturbing Daoist Xuan Yun.

Without any support, breaking through to the fifth level of the King Realm was much more difficult than Xuan Yun Daoist had imagined.

He had almost completely drained his source sea, yet he still couldn't take that final step. His fourth level of cultivation in the King Realm was entirely the result of rapid breakthroughs aided by elixirs.

Therefore, Xuan Yun Daoist's foundation is not solid, and the difficulty of forcibly breaking through to the fifth level of the King Realm is self-evident.

Only when the effects of the Nine Jade Pills of Tonghai completely disappeared did Xuan Yun Daoist truly realize the difficulty of reaching the King Realm.

Xuan Yun Daoist's consciousness was in a void, and in front of him was a door that occupied the entire space, as if opening that door would lead to another scene.

As he slowly approached, a voice echoed in Xuan Yun Dao Ren's mind: as long as he could open this door, he could cross the threshold of the fifth level of the King Realm.

With a nervous heart, Daoist Xuanyun placed his hands on it, mobilizing all the remaining source power in his source sea, and for the first time unleashed the power that a King Realm expert should have.

I exerted all my strength to push open the door in front of me. The door opened slowly, and a dazzling and spectacular sight came into view.

"Senior Brother, you're awake!"

"Master, Master is awake!"

"Lord Holy Lord!"

Xuan Yun Daoist stared at the crowd in a daze, and slowly said, "Has a long time passed?"

Mu Xin replied, "It has been less than two hours, but it seems that Senior Brother's cultivation has successfully broken through to the fifth level of the King Realm."

Upon hearing the last sentence, Daoist Xuanyun was somewhat surprised. He quickly assessed his current cultivation level and found that he had indeed reached the fifth level of the King Realm.

"I...I did it!"

Turning his head to look at the natal source statue that resembled his own appearance, Daoist Xuanyun couldn't help but sigh repeatedly.

“My natal image, I finally have my own natal image.”

"Master, I did it..."

Upon hearing this, both Mu Xin and Yao Yu showed a hint of sadness, recalling the old man's appearance when he was alive.
