I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

True God Realm, the second realm of the Divine Path.

Those who can truly grasp the divine runes know that each rune is a manifestation of the Great Dao and its laws.

After mastering the life-giving power of the Azure Emperor Scripture, Shen Ming's Dao Heart not only underwent a transformation, but also broke through from the ninth-order Dao Heart to the thirteenth-order Immortal Heart in one fell swoop.

Strangely, the same applies to the Chaos Dao Heart.

Shen Ming guessed that when he was refining the Void King Beast in the Four Symbols Return to the Void, his Chaos Dao Heart had already broken through to the Immortal Heart.

However, the Void God Realm has an upper limit to its capacity.

Now that you've reached the True God Realm, you have three Immortal Hearts!

"The four Dao Hearts of the Four Symbols Power remain unchanged because the True God Realm can only accommodate three Immortal Hearts?"

Shen Ming wasn't quite sure.

The innate sacred body has thirteen orifices.

The nine orifices mark the first watershed, while the nine orifices and nine stages of the Dao Heart mark the second watershed.

The Nine Apertures Immortal Heart is the third watershed.

The Thirteen Apertures Dao Heart is the fourth watershed, and the Thirteen Apertures Thirteen Immortal Heart is the final form.

In conclusion, he has now completely completed the cycle of reincarnation.

Sword Heart and Eternal Dao Heart only need further cultivation.

As for combat power in the upper realm, it remains the same: the Holy Body is invincible among those of the same realm!

Suddenly, Shen Ming found himself greedily absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, as if a black hole had appeared in his body.

The required spiritual energy from heaven and earth quickly exceeded what spiritual energy could provide.

Even if the Great Luo Palace had half a celestial vein, it couldn't provide it in time.

Breaking through a major realm in three hours is permitted by Heaven, but he needs to replenish his energy.

For example, a semi-divine herb, or a magic pill.

Shen Ming's Daluo Palace does have semi-immortal pills in its alchemy furnace, all obtained from the Supreme Immortal Palace.

However, these semi-divine pills had almost no effect after being taken.

"I myself completed the Heavenly Path Reincarnation, but these semi-immortal pills are still the standard of the lower realm, only slightly better than spiritual pills."

Shen Ming frowned. The quality of the pills could not be improved through the "Eternal Universe Scripture," nor could they be piled up with materials like an array.

In just that short time, his energy and blood began to wane.

Without sufficient external energy replenishment, it will consume itself to meet its needs.

This is no less than killing the goose that lays the golden eggs; the damage to the Holy Body is irreversible.

“Junior Brother Shen, I have a batch of Azure Origin Divine Pills here that can perfectly solve your problem, but you must promise me that you will not pursue what happened before, and you must not mention it again when you return to Taihao Sect,” said Lin Buqun, who had been secretly observing.

"You certainly know how to find opportunities," Shen Ming said coldly.

"If I had known that Junior Brother Shen was so capable, I wouldn't have bothered distinguishing between the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect."

After Lin Buqun finished speaking, he took out a bottle of pills.

He only stretched it halfway before saying, "Junior Brother Shen, you shouldn't have told Torch and the others about my affairs."

"What do you want?" Shen Ming asked, frowning.

"Of course, it's up to you to solve this problem," Lin Buqun said.

"So, in this way, we both have something on each other, right?" Shen Ming said coldly.

"Junior Brother Shen, there's no need to be so aggressive. Shouldn't we be focusing on the present?"

Lin Buqun said, "Your situation is not uncommon. Once you have completely completed the cycle of reincarnation and transformation, the pills brought from the lower realm cannot affect you."

Shen Ming waved his hand, releasing the restrictions on Lin Buqun.

"Junior Brother Shen, then let's put aside our past grievances..." Lin Buqun said with a smile.

"get out."

As it turned out, Shen Ming did not mean what he expected at all, and directly sent him flying out of the sword formation.

"Junior Brother Shen?!"

Lin Buqun was completely dumbfounded. Was this guy out of his mind?

He had witnessed the power of the sword formation and dared not act rashly, so he could only hesitate.

He didn't believe Shen Ming had any other way and was waiting to come and beg him.

Shen Ming wouldn't be controlled by someone over a bottle of pills, let alone kill someone to silence Huoju.

With a wave of his hand, a demon core appeared in his palm.

This is the black-gold demon core condensed by Cang Suan, containing the most powerful essence of the demon race and extremely violent demonic power. If others were to attempt to refine it, they would not only be unable to absorb it, but would also be eroded by the demonic blood will within it.

Only the nine sects of the human race know how to process and purify it before refining it into a pill.

Shen Ming doesn't need to worry about these things. It's not that he's going to take them directly; firstly, it's unnecessary, and secondly, it's unhygienic.

With just a gentle squeeze, the power of devouring quietly circulated, enveloping the demon core like a black hole.

The overwhelming demonic power surged and churned, but under his control it quickly collapsed, turning into a torrent of essence, which was then completely absorbed into his body.

boom!

Shen Ming's physical body suddenly radiated a dazzling divine light, and the essence in the demon core transformed into a surging blood energy, pouring into his limbs and bones like a vast ocean tide.

The life force within his body began to rapidly absorb the violent demonic energy, using the Dao Heart of Creation as its foundation to refine its pure essence. Meanwhile, the impurities belonging to the demon race were crushed by the devouring power and turned into nothingness.

This demon core in his hands functioned like a celestial elixir, not only replenishing the entire Void God Realm required for his cultivation, but even having a surplus.

Shen Ming exhaled softly, his eyes deep and unfathomable, his aura becoming even more mysterious and unpredictable.

"This is the performance a Devouring Talisman Master should have. The power of a god! With this, and a dozen or so lesser demon gods holding their demon cores, wouldn't they be able to complete the Divine Realm in one fell swoop?"

Shen Ming originally planned to attain enlightenment and become a Dao Master within ten years.

Judging from the current situation, it can be done in ten days.

It sounds illogical, but he has killed Dao Lords, and more than one, and has long since achieved the Dao of Balance.

There are no heavenly tribulations in the realm of gods, so you can break through first and then replenish your strength.

As long as there are enough Black Gold Demon Cores, they can be refined and absorbed using the power of devouring, forming a perfect virtuous cycle.

"Nothing wrong."

After carefully checking every detail, Shen Ming found that it was feasible.

It's a pity Jian Li isn't here, otherwise I could ask for her opinion.

Outside the sword formation, Lin Buqun noticed that Shen Ming's breathing was becoming more stable, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

He still didn't understand Shen Ming. If he had just given away the pills without any conditions, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

Now that he couldn't enter the sword formation, the demon race's revenge was imminent, so he dared not linger and quickly left.

At the same time, Han Lie of Torch successfully broke through to the True God Realm.

As he emerged from his newly opened cave dwelling, he saw Su Qingqing and the others standing outside, their faces beaming with excitement.

"No need to get so excited. This breakthrough has been in preparation for a long time, so it's perfectly normal," Han Lie said with a light laugh.

"Senior brother! You are too modest! Just now, you exhaled a breath that shook mountains and rivers, causing the heavens and earth to change. Such a commotion is not something an ordinary cultivator can achieve!"

"Senior brother, you've kept this a secret for a long time. Do you have some special talent?" Su Qingqing asked.

Han Lie was completely confused, wondering what all this was all about.

If you didn't know them well, you'd suspect they were just being sarcastic.

He knows his own situation best; he's not some kind of prodigy.

But after hearing what happened, I felt a little dazed.

Could it be that I have really awakened some extraordinary talent?

"No! That wasn't me!"

But soon, Han Lie discovered that there was another True God Realm expert in the mountains!
