Countless scarlet red flaming currents were rushing into Li Fuchen's body as his qi presence was increasing progressively, solidifying the 1st level of the Heaven Dipper Realm quickly.
But it had yet to finish. As Li Fuchen progressed to the Heaven Dipper Realm, the true dragon-shaped Heaven Dipper Battle Imprint appeared on his glabella. It emitted an extremely mystical wave which guided Li Fuchen's cultivation and continued to help him breakthrough.
Crash, Crash, Crash!
The temperature continued to increase. Everything within a ten-mile radius had turned into a scarlet red world filled with countless blazing hot vital energy. The energy converged from all directions and fused into Li Fuchen's body.
But Li Fuchen could feel that heaven and earth energy was too thin, as it was totally incomparable to the peak of Mt. Star Fate.
Taking out low-grade spirit stones, Li Fuchen started to consume the spirit qi from the spirit stones.
1st level later state of the Heaven Dipper Realm, 1st level peak state of the Heaven Dipper Realm.
2nd level of the Heaven Dipper Realm, 2nd level peak state of the Heaven Dipper Realm.
3rd level of the Heaven Dipper Realm.
Li Fuchen's cultivation continued to climb as though it wasn't going to stop.
At the current moment, Li Fuchen's low-grade spirit stones were getting used up one after the other.
If a low-level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist cultivated like normal, they would need around three months to fully absorb a low-grade spirit stone. But Li Fuchen was currently breaking through levels and he was breaking through consecutively. The qi that he needed was extremely boundless and it wasn't something that could be fulfilled with just one or two low-grade spirit stones.
Ouyang Wentian originally wanted to toss some low-grade spirit stones to Li Fuchen, but after seeing that Li Fuchen already had some, he didn't disrupt Li Fuchen. He decided that it wouldn't be too late even if he waited for Li Fuchen to finish breaking through before giving the spirit stones to him.
3rd level peak state of the Heaven Dipper Realm.
4th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm.
Boom!
Li Fuchen's body was currently enveloped by a giant scarlet red sun. The dazzling and blazing radiance felt as though it was going to burn the heavens as it emitted endless light and heat.
"Breaking through to the 4th level of the Heaven Realm in one stretch. He is indeed worthy of being the strongest no.1 King Star in the past few centuries." Ouyang Wentian grinned.
The more levels Li Fuchen broke through, the more it would make it easier for him to reach the Reincarnation Realm in the future. Perhaps, Li Fuchen might be the first individual in history to ever break through to the Reincarnation Realm as a 1-star bone frame.
When Li Fuchen's cultivation climbed to the 4th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm, Li Fuchen's body involuntarily floated. It was as though the sky above Azure Water Sect had one more sun.
"Such power."
In the direct disciple district, the inner sect disciple district, and even the further outer sect disciple district, everyone was looking up into the sky at that sun with envy and shock.
Gradually, the sun condensed into Li Fuchen's body. Li Fuchen's cultivation had thoroughly solidified at the 4th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm and it wasn’t at the initial state of the 4th level, but the middle stage of the 4th level.
Right now, many of the disciples clearly saw Li Fuchen’s face.
“It really is Li shixiong.”
“A 21-year-old Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist. This is a record that will be unbreakable for a long time!”
In the direct disciple district, the direct disciples were all having heated and excited discussions.
Those who knew Li Fuchen had on complicated expressions, some were happy, some felt helpless, while some felt worship.
Li Fuchen didn’t bother with those voices as his eyes were shut closely while he was familiarizing with the power within his body.
Now that he was at the 4th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm, he felt the qi capacity in his body had grown by dozens of folds, while his qi quality had also grown by multiple folds.
'My current regular attack is probably far stronger than my all-out attack one month ago without using the Bronze Sword Essence, Clear Sky Sword Art martial pattern, and the Nine Revolution Purple Qi Divine Technique pattern. I will only know my strength after testing it out with those trump cards.'
Similarly at the 4th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm and without using any of his trump cards, Li Fuchen was already stronger than the average 4th level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist.
After all, his True Inferno Technique was already at the 18th rank and his Inferno Sword Art was at the brink of comprehending sword intent. These weren’t things that a regular 4th level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist could compare with.
After opening his eyes, Li Fuchen saw Ouyang Wentian flying over.
“Sect Patriarch.” Li Fuchen greeted.
Ouyang Wentian smiled and said, “Li Fuchen, you are much more exceptional than I imagined. These spirit stones are bestowed to you by the sect.”
Ouyang Wentian handed over a storage bag to Li Fuchen which contained a hundred low-grade spirit stones. This treatment was much better than anyone else who had broken through to the Heaven Dipper Realm.
“Thank you Sect Patriarch.” Li Fuchen didn’t reserve himself and accepted the storage bag.
During the consecutive breakthrough, Li Fuchen had absorbed close to a hundred low-grade spirit stones which caused his heart to feel pain.
He believed that the number of spirit stones the Sect Patriarch had bestowed was definitely substantial.
"Since you have broken through to the Heaven Dipper Realm, I will fulfill the promise I made previously and impart you the Sect Origin Swords in advance." After the results of the Stars Ranking Tournament, Ouyang Wentian once mentioned that when Li Fuchen breakthrough to the Heaven Dipper Realm, he would bestow Li Fuchen something. In fact, he was planning on imparting the Sect Origin Swords to Li Fuchen.
With Li Fuchen's perception ability, he should be able to cultivate the Sect Origin Swords quickly and by then, he would be able to protect himself even better.
After hearing Ouyang Wentian, Li Fuchen revealed a delighted expression.
He had long desired the Sect Origin Swords.
But he knew that 5-star secret techniques had a high demand for one's qi cultivation. Before reaching the Heaven Dipper Realm, it was impossible to cultivate it.
"There is no need to hurry. Two weeks later, when you are familiar with your own strength, come and look for me."
Ouyang Wentian didn't wish for Li Fuchen to be impatient for results, after all, he had just broken through to the Heaven Dipper Realm. Furthermore, it was a consecutive level breakthrough, so he was probably very unfamiliar with his new strength.
"Understood, Sect Patriarch."
Li Fuchen also felt that he had to familiarize with his own strength first.
***
After breaking through to the Heaven Dipper Realm, Li Fuchen possessed his own mountain peak, and soon there was an exquisite palace hall constructed on the peak.
After spending three days, Li Fuchen had almost familiarized himself with the 4th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm.
The current him was already enough to produce the strength of a 6th level Heaven Dipper Realm in his normal state. If he were to activate the 4-star secret technique, Pure Yang Dipper Qi, he would be able to exhibit the strength of a 7th or 8th level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist.
And this was just in his normal state, without any external assistance.
In the Sword Monument Canyon…
On this day, there was a sword intent with an extreme blazing heat that rushed towards the sky.
When brushed by this sword intent, many of the direct disciples and even the inner sect elders who were in the midst of comprehending sword intents had all exited the Sword Monument Canyon.
"This is the Inferno Sword Intent?" An inner sect elder was appalled.
Mystic class peak-tier sword arts were extremely hard to comprehend. Among the inner sect elders, most of them were only at the sub-perfection stage. Only those inner sect elders with higher cultivation levels were able to comprehend the mystic class peak-tier sword arts to the perfection stage. As for comprehending the sword intent, among all the Azure Water Sect's inner sect elders, there were less than five individuals that could accomplish it. Grand Elder Zhao Wujin was one of them, but he had comprehended the Azure Water Sword Intent.
"As expected. Now that my cultivation is at the Heaven Dipper Realm, it is much smoother and easier to comprehend sword intents. I didn't even have to make much effort."
In the depths of the Sword Monument Canyon, Li Fuchen revealed a smile.
With the Inferno Sword Intent, his strength could be said to have increased by another cultivation level.
Three days later, Li Fuchen had also comprehended the Mystic Heaven Sword Intent.
Now that his cultivation was at the Heaven Dipper Realm, his perception could be utilized to the extreme, unlike before where it was limited by his cultivation, which only allowed him to utilize a small portion of his perception.
"It is almost time. I can go and look for the Sect Patriarch now."
Li Fuchen had big expectations for the Sect Origin Swords secret technique.
In his opinion, the
Incomplete Sword Essence Chapter might be even more incredible, but Sect Origin Swords looked much more dazzling and majestic. Moreover, he wanted to know if the Sword Essence secret technique could be stacked with the Sect Origin Swords secret technique. If they could be stacked, his strength would be able to reach a horrifying level.
When that happened, the others would have the Sect Origin Swords' sword qi, but he would have the Sect Origin Swords' bronze sword qi, and these two were in completely different classes.
