Chapter 494: Chapter 390: Mid-Jade Balance Stage, Annihilation by Ten Thousand Demons

SWISH~

The Experience Points on the panel churned wildly, transforming into specks of starlight that flowed into the space between Chen Ping’an’s brows.

Starlight materialized above the Spirit Platform, within that small expanse. Like a delicate river of stars, it slowly spilled out from the boundless darkness and scattered gently below, gradually merging with the Spirit Platform’s Spiritual Energy until they were one.

This interweaving of starlight and Spiritual Energy bathed Chen Ping’an’s brow in a faint golden glow. At the same time, a flood of insights regarding the Wandering Dragon Body Technique surfaced in his mind.

Top Divine Skill, Wandering Dragon Body Technique: Entry Level!

Upon reaching the Entry Level with the technique, Chen Ping’an successfully mastered the Wandering Dragon Body Technique’s entry-level secret technique: Wandering Dragon Spirit. By consuming True Essence and executing this secret technique, he could use specific Body Techniques to significantly enhance his evasive agility.

This shored up a major weakness for Chen Ping’an: his agility in close quarters! Furthermore, since the Wandering Dragon Body Technique was a Top Divine Skill, even just reaching the Entry Level with it caused his Lightweight Body Technique to improve by leaps and bounds. It was worlds stronger than his previous Eight Steps Chasing Cicada!

This had nothing to do with proficiency or insight; it was simply the result of the gap between the two Cultivation Techniques.

Even the Eight Steps Chasing Cicada at the Perfection Level couldn’t compare to the Wandering Dragon Body Technique at the Entry Level!

But the changes to Chen Ping’an didn’t stop there. With the help of the Golden Finger Panel, as his Wandering Dragon Body Technique reached the Entry Level, the Spiritual Energy on his Brow Spiritual Platform shone with incomparable brilliance, swirling as thick and nourishing as a sweet rain.

Nourished by this Spiritual Energy, the incomparably solid, delicate, and crystalline Spiritual Flower on his Spirit Platform began to undergo a strange transformation.

Its petals gradually lost their initial brightness and softness, becoming tough and thick as their color quietly deepened. It was as if they had been gently touched by the brush of time, adding a hint of mature grace.

The center of the Spiritual Flower began to swell, shining with a Spiritual Light, as if it were gestating something.

A large amount of Spiritual Energy converged, forming a small, circulating vortex.

As time passed, the swollen center quietly split open, revealing a small, unripe fruit.

The surface of this fruit was covered in an incredibly fine shimmer, with points of light arranging themselves into a spiritual halo. Bathed in the swirling Spiritual Light, it appeared exceptionally wondrous.

Condensing the Spiritual Flower is the mark of the Early Jade Balance Stage, the Grandmaster Realm! Bearing a Spirit Fruit Embryo means breaking through the Grandmaster Pass again to achieve the Mid-Jade Balance Stage!

And now, on Chen Ping’an’s Brow Spiritual Platform, a Spirit Fruit Embryo had appeared!

Mid-Jade Balance Stage, achieved!

Feeling the faint, cyan-colored True Essence circulating within him, Chen Ping’an’s presence swelled with heroic spirit and soaring ambition.

All his tireless cultivation, day and night, had allowed him to reach an even greater height!

Name: Chen Ping’an

Realm: Mid-Jade Balance Stage - Spirit Fruit Embryo

Martial Arts: Wandering Dragon Body Technique (Entry Level: 0/240), Minor Achievement of Soul-breaking Blade (285/640), Dragon Elephant Dominating Body Technique Perfect, Vajra Unbreakable Divine Skill Perfect, Three-Third Human Tribulation Finger Perfection, Great Vajra...

...

For an ordinary Cultivator to break through the pass into the Mid-Jade Balance Stage, they would have to face countless challenges, such as ensuring their Spiritual Energy was abundant, nourishing the Spirit Flower, gestating the embryo, and breaking through the Shell Barrier.

But for Chen Ping’an, it was as if these challenges didn’t exist. His breakthrough was perfectly natural and completely unimpeded.

’So this is the Mid-Jade Balance Stage!’ The Spiritual Energy at Chen Ping’an’s brow flickered, and his robes billowed without a whisper of wind, snapping loudly. The True Essence within him felt almost solid as it surged with immense power. With this breakthrough, both his explosive strength and his endurance had improved dramatically.

With his current strength, while he still couldn’t split mountains or sever rivers, he far surpassed the world’s common understanding of a Martial Arts Cultivator.

He could unleash tremendous power with every move.

Furthermore, Chen Ping’an’s Martial Arts Will had become even more refined. Under its pressure, he could exert a huge influence on even top-tier Martial Arts Masters. If he were to single one out, even a peak Martial Arts Master would be unable to withstand it.

Having just achieved his breakthrough, Chen Ping’an took a moment to carefully assess his condition. On the Spirit Platform deep within his brow grew a Spiritual Flower, but what drew the most attention was the Spirit Fruit Embryo at its center.

At this moment, Chen Ping’an had only just broken through, so the Spirit Fruit was still in an embryonic state. As his Cultivation continued, the Spirit Fruit would gradually grow until it was plump, translucent, and Perfectly Round and Agreeable.

Reaching that step would mean Chen Ping’an’s Martial Arts Realm had reached Jade Balance Middle Stage Perfection. A cultivator at this level could be called a Top Grandmaster! Any higher would be the Late Jade Balance Stage, the level of one’s Peers!

The divisions of Grandmaster Combat Power within the Mid-Jade Balance Stage are much the same as in the Early Jade Balance Stage, roughly categorized into ordinary, formidable, and top-level tiers.

Generally speaking, those who have just broken into the Mid-Jade Balance Stage are classified in the ordinary tier. However, there are special cases—prodigies with shocking combat power who, despite having just broken through, already possess formidable or even top-level strength!

Of course, such individuals are exceedingly rare. In addition to their own special Cultivation Techniques, they often have the support of extremely precious external aids, such as Attacking Divine Weapons with wondrous effects and incomparable power!

’Even though I just broke into the Mid-Jade Balance Stage, I’m well-rounded in offense, defense, and evasion, with no obvious weaknesses. For defensive Divine Skills, I have the Vajra Unbreakable Divine Skill and the Dragon Elephant Dominating Body Technique! For Attack Divine Skills, I have the Three-Point Human Tribulation Finger and the Broken Soul Saber Technique! For Body Technique Divine Skills, I have the Wandering Dragon Body Technique! And with the perfect insights granted by the Golden Finger Panel, my combat power is definitely far beyond the ordinary tier for the Mid-Jade Balance Stage!’
