Chapter 109 - Lu Sulan"s Consecutive Breakthrough
"Primordial G.o.d Realm..." Lu Sulan, Can Ye, and Hestia muttered curiously, while Theia revealed a thoughtful look.
"Master, what kind of place is that?" Can Ye asked as he sneaked a glance at Jiu Shen. He has not heard of such a place before, but since his master came from there, then that place should be awesome.
Looking at their faces, Jiu Shen grabbed a seat and leaned on his chair, but instead of answering them, he asked a question of his own. "What is the strongest cultivation level that someone can attain?"
Lu Sulan knitted her eyebrows and replied. "Master, isn"t it the 10th-rank G.o.d realm?"
Jiu Shen glanced at her and shook his head. "You are correct but also wrong. Everyone of you thought that the 10th-rank G.o.d is the strongest cultivation level that one can attain, but this isn"t the case."
Aside from Theia, the other three revealed a look of surprise. Who wouldn"t be? In the history of Nuar, there were only a few 9th-rank Saints in every generation. As for 10th-rank G.o.ds, there hasn"t been one in the Profound Dragon Continent for tens of thousands of years.
"Master, do you mean...there is still a level above that?" Lu Sulan asked with wide eyes.
Jiu Shen shook his head once again. "Not just one level, but several more... In order to achieve G.o.dhood, a peak stage 9th-rank Saint realm expert must overcome his tribulation lightning, and if one crosses that successfully, they will be promoted to the Nascent G.o.d Realm. That"s the start of one"s path to G.o.dhood, and someone at that level is referred to as "Immortal" due to their long lives and supreme strength."
Lu Sulan and the others could feel the disdain in Jiu Shen"s tone as he told them about that. It was as if someone at the Nascent G.o.d Realm wasn"t even worth mentioning in his presence.
"In that case, how strong is someone at that level?" Can Ye was stunned to hear all these words, but his eyes sparkled with longing.
Jiu Shen thought for a moment and replied in a calm voice. "A Nascent G.o.d Realm expert can destroy the whole Silver Wing Empire in one casual attack."
Lu Sulan, Can Ye, and Hestia sucked in deep breaths of cold air when they heard Jiu Shen"s words. The Silver Wing Empire occupied a vast expanse of land in the Profound Dragon Continent, so when Jiu Shen told them that an expert at the Nascent G.o.d Realm was that strong, they couldn"t help but break out in cold sweat.
"Master, are you also at this level?" Can Ye asked carefully.
Jiu Shen"s expression turned strange, but he hurriedly concealed it. "Let"s talk about this when Sulan"s cultivation is at the peak stage of the 9th-rank Saint."
Everyone felt disappointed, but they didn"t reveal it outwardly after seeing Jiu Shen"s serious look.
"I have given Can Ye"s present. This time it"s for Sulan. I initially wanted to give you a G.o.d Weapon as well, but I don"t have a suitable weapon for you. However, I have something here that can make your cultivation jump to the 9th-rank Saint in less than an hour." Jiu Shen said while looking at Lu Sulan.
Lu Sulan was at first dispirited, but after hearing the second half of Jiu Shen"s words, her expression immediately became vibrant. "Master..."
Jiu Shen sighed internally and took out the two Fruits of Cultivation from his s.p.a.ce earring.
The Fruits of Cultivation emitted a brilliant golden light that almost blinded everyone. They covered their eyes while also taking a look at the item in Jiu Shen"s hands with difficulty. Just what kind of fruit was it for it to produce such blinding light?!
Jiu Shen grabbed both Lu Sulan"s hands, making the latter blush coyly. The former then gave her the two Fruits of Cultivation with a slightly heavy heart. This was supposed to help him reach the Nascent G.o.d Realm...
"Master, this is..." Lu Sulan"s trembling voice drifted in everyone"s ears.
"This is the Fruit of Cultivation. Consume it and you"ll know its effects." Jiu Shen replied indifferently. This was supposed to be taken by him, but since he had nothing better to give to Lu Sulan, he could only give it to her.
He had already spoken with the system about it earlier and it had told him that Lu Sulan will be promoted to the 9th-rank Saint if she consumes the two fruits. It was a much bigger jump compared to his own when he consumed two of such fruit, but after recalling that he had the Seamless Deity Physique, he could only sigh.
Lu Sulan gulped as she looked at the two golden fruits in her hands. The two fruits felt so weightless that it was as if she was holding two small feathers. She inhaled its fragrant aroma and instantly felt her true essence fluctuating wildly. What? I haven"t even consumed the fruit yet, and just its smell alone is already capable of enhancing my true essence! How astonis.h.i.+ng can this fruit be?!
Looking at Jiu Shen"s rare stern look, she immediately consumed the two fruits in several large bites. "The taste is not bad... Wait...My true essence... What?!"
She was startled when she felt the absurd growth of her true essence after she consumed the two Fruits of Cultivation. Before, the true essence in her dantian was just like a small stream that flowed gently, but looking at the insane speed at which her true essence expanded, it was now like a vast ocean smas.h.i.+ng the sh.o.r.e! Truly shocking!
Early stage 8th-rank Divine realm...
Mid stage 8th-rank Divine realm...
Late stage 8th-rank Divine realm...
She broke through consecutively and there was no sign of stopping yet! Can Ye, Hestia, and even Theia glanced at the scene with dumbfounded expressions on their faces.
Peak stage 8th-rank Divine realm...
This time, the speed of her growth slowed down, but it still hasn"t stopped.
Lu Sulan opened her eyes and a flash of power flickered within her gaze.
Early stage 9th-rank Saint realm...
She had finally broken through to the 9th-rank Saint realm!
Lu Sulan felt excited and she couldn"t help but hug her master tightly in her embrace. And...It was already too late for her to realize her impulsive actions...
"Ah!" Like a startled rabbit she hurriedly stepped back.
