Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin: I Set Taboos in the Heavens

Each discovery within the Myriad Realms King Map deepened Fang Qing's understanding of the splendor of the ancient era and the vastness of the map itself.

The profound truths and materials contained in these treasures have immeasurable value for him in perfecting his own system, refining magical artifacts, and enhancing his combat power.

Fang Qing calmed down completely and devoted all his energy to comprehending the true meaning of the Great Dao and breaking through his own cultivation level.

He can partially control the flow of time within the Myriad Realms King Map. Although he cannot achieve the exaggerated speed of a thousand years in a day in the outside world map, adjusting the flow rate to ten or even dozens of times is sufficient for him.

He sat cross-legged in a place of Dao origin in the King's Map World, surrounded by countless innate Dao patterns flowing around him, and the chaotic energy permeated the air.

Above Fang Qing's head, the Zhuxian King Token floated, wisps of mysterious light hanging down, helping him to better communicate with the origin of the King's Map.

Beside him were the strange treasures he had collected, each containing different profound meanings of the Great Dao, for him to observe and comprehend at any time.

His mind was constantly immersed in comprehending the traces of divine qigong and Daoist principles originating from the memories of the primordial divine embryo.

Each of these divine skills points directly to the origin of chaos, containing the ultimate profound meaning of the Great Dao.

If an ordinary cultivator obtains even one complete inheritance and dedicates their entire life to comprehending a profound realm, they will be able to roam freely in one region and hope to glimpse the scenery beyond mythology.

Fang Qing, however, possessed more than a dozen such "traces of Daoist charm" that he could refer to, compare, and absorb the essence of at the same time.

He was like a sponge that had been dry for millions of years, greedily absorbing the nutrients contained in these divine skills and profound mysteries.

The Daoist principles of the "Chaotic Heavenly Roc Free and Unfettered Great Art" allowed him to reach an unprecedented level of understanding of speed and spatial freedom.

He seemed to transform into a roc soaring through endless chaos, his soul roaming freely in the void, comprehending that the essence of speed is not only about how fast or slow one moves, but also about grasping and transcending the context of time and space.

His teleportation skills improved by leaps and bounds. With the slightest thought, he could teleport over extremely long distances within the King's World, his trajectories mysterious and unpredictable.

The Daoist principles of "The Immortal Divine Art of the Mysterious Turtle Carrying the Heavens" gave him a completely new understanding of defense and power accumulation.

He observed the phantom of the Xuan Turtle carrying the world on its back, and comprehended its profound and resilient nature of using stillness to control movement, remaining unchanged to respond to all changes, and transforming all attacks into its own nourishment.

His true energy became more solid and resilient, and his protective aura spontaneously evolved into a pattern similar to the Xuan Turtle Divine Mark, greatly increasing his defensive power.

The Daoist principles of the "Chaos World Tree Purification and Longevity Technique" nourished his life essence and the vitality of his inner world.

He seemed to see how the divine tree rooted in chaos transformed the chaotic and violent primordial energy into pure vitality to nourish all things.

His understanding of the laws of life and the way of purification has deepened greatly. Not only has his own recovery ability reached an abnormal level, but a richer ecosystem has also begun to spontaneously evolve in the chaotic inner world.

There's also the heat and purification of the "Chaotic Flame Emperor's World-Burning Scripture," the destruction and creation of the "Heavenly Divine Thunder Calamity Control True Method," and the illusion and concealment of the "Myriad Transformations Formless Mirage Treasure Mirror"...

Each Daoist rhythm opened up a brand new world for Fang Qing.

He did not pursue a complete replication of these techniques, but rather absorbed their essence, refined their true meaning, and integrated them into his own system.

Drawing on the strengths of many, and fusing them into one.

Fang Qing's foundation in the Great Dao became incredibly strong, solid, and perfect at an astonishing speed through this almost extravagant comprehension and integration!

With such a profound and terrifying accumulation of knowledge and a deep understanding of the true meaning of the Great Dao, his cultivation began to experience an explosive breakthrough.

The foundation of the third level of the Mythical Realm, the God Transformation, was thoroughly solidified, reaching perfection.

Then, as if by magic, the barrier of the fourth level of the Mythical Realm, "Shattering God," burst open.

The so-called "shattering of the god" does not mean destroying one's own primordial spirit, but rather breaking the nascent divine personality that gradually condenses during the processes of "gazing at the god," "refining the god," and "transforming the god," which has a certain virtual nature.

It is shattered and decomposed, and then, with a deeper understanding of the Great Dao and a purer source of power, it is re-condensed into a new divine core that is more real, closer to the essence of the Great Dao, and contains more of its own unique imprint.

This is a process of destruction and reconstruction, fraught with risks. Failure could result in a decline in cultivation or even the shattering of one's divine status and damage to one's foundation.

But for Fang Qing, whose foundation was abnormally deep and whose control over his own power was extremely precise, this hurdle became an excellent opportunity for him to temper himself and distinguish between truth and falsehood.

"Crack!"

Upon introspection, Fang Qing saw that the virtual divine core at the core of his soul, formed from countless law runes and his own will, shattered under the active guidance of his own will and the impact of immense power, turning into countless dazzling points of light and fragments of law.

These shattered points of light and laws are constantly being reassembled under Fang Qing's will. He also injects the different profound mysteries of laws he has comprehended from various divine-level qigong techniques—speed, defense, life, time and space, fire, thunder, illusion... as well as the will of chaos, domination, and devouring the heavens—into this reshaping process.

Time flowed slowly in the Land of Dao Origin. When the last fragment of law was perfectly integrated, a brand new divine core slowly condensed and took shape in the center of Fang Qing's divine soul.

This divine core exhibits a tangible dark golden color, with chaotic energy flowing across its surface. Countless tiny worlds are born and die within it, and more than a dozen kinds of Great Dao imprints, such as the shadow of a roc, tortoise shell patterns, tree shapes, and dragon marks, flicker alternately. In the end, they all return to a radiance that governs all Daos.

Mythical Fourfold Realm, Shattered God Realm, Completed.

The new divine core is more than ten times more powerful than the previous virtual divine core. It is not only more solid and real, but its compatibility with Fang Qing's own Great Dao has also reached an unprecedented level, and the efficiency of mobilizing laws and operating divine power has soared.

But this is far from the end.

In the uniquely advantageous environment of the Myriad Realms King Map, aided by the Immortal Execution King Token, and supported by his near-limitless potential and terrifyingly profound foundation, Fang Qing did not stop his progress.

He continued to comprehend and digest the new insights brought about by the Shattered God Realm, while also delving deeper into the profound mysteries contained within those divine-level qigong techniques.

Thus, not long after the Shattered God Realm was completely stabilized, Fang Qing's soul and the newly formed dark gold divine core once again resonated with each other and had an impulse to transform.

The fifth level of the Mythical Realm, the gateway to the "Nirvana God," has quietly opened.

"Nie Shen" is derived from the concept of "Nirvana".

Upon reaching this level, the cultivator's already partially realized divine core needs to undergo one or more rebirth-like tempering and rebirth processes.

This process, while maintaining the basic structure of the divine core and the indestructibility of its own will, involves activating a higher-level Dao fire or tribulation power to refine the divine core through repeated tempering, eliminating impurities and retaining the essence, making its internal structure more compact, its laws purer, and its will more condensed, thus taking a crucial step towards the legendary truly immortal and indestructible divine status.

His own power is sufficient to provide the purest tempering fire.

With a thought, he unified the primordial power of the chaotic inner world, the devouring and transforming power of the thousands of imperial serpent talismans, the power of the dozen or so divine-level Daoist laws he had comprehended, and even the high-level Daoist source energy that was omnipresent within the Myriad Realms King Map... all of them were transformed into a formless and colorless Chaotic Nirvana True Fire containing the power of creation, and began to temper his dark gold divine core from the inside out.

"laugh……"

Under the tempering of the Nirvana True Fire, wisps of impurities rose from the surface of the divine core. These were subtle conflicts of laws and flaws in will that had not been fully digested during the previous fusion process.

These impurities were directly incinerated by the real fire, turning into nothingness.

Under the tempering of the true fire, the divine core itself continuously condensed and solidified, its color changing from dark gold to a restrained dark gold chaotic color, and its internal structure became more mysterious and complex, like naturally formed cosmic patterns.

An eternal and indestructible meaning, enduring through countless eons, began to emanate from the depths of the divine core.

This process lasted much longer than the shattering of the gods.

As the Chaos Nirvana True Fire slowly dissipated, a brand-new divine core, only the size of a thumb and exhibiting a perfect dark gold chaotic crystal shape, quietly floated in the center of Fang Qing's divine soul.

It gives people a feeling of heaviness like a mountain, of timelessness, as if it is no longer an aggregate of energy, but a crystallization of some great Dao, a testament to immortality.

Mythical Realm Fivefold, Nirvana God Realm, Achieved!

Fang Qing gently moved his fingers, feeling the mythical power within his body that surged like a galaxy yet was as refined as divine metal, as well as the almost instinctive affinity and control over the laws of heaven and earth brought by the Nirvana God Core.

"The power of the fifth level of Nirvana God is more than 100,000 times greater than that of the Nascent Soul stage."

Fang Qing murmured to himself, his tone tinged with a hint of emotion.

While the Myriad Realms King Map and numerous opportunities certainly contributed to his rapid advancement, his own extraordinary comprehension and profound foundation were the fundamental factors.

Having reached such a level of strength, Fang Qing's mind began to stir once again.

While the Myriad Realms King Map is excellent and rich in resources, it is ultimately a relatively closed world.

The Thai Heavenly Realm, as it develops within this realm, also needs more nourishment to accelerate its growth.

The best source of those nutrients is naturally the celestial realm outside!
"It's time to go out for a walk."

Fang Qing's gaze pierced through the barriers of the King's World, as if he could see the myriad worlds outside.

With a slight thought, he communicated with the Immortal Execution King Token, and in a flash, he silently left the Myriad Realms King Map and appeared in the vast starry sky outside.

His goal was clear—to reach the seventh or eighth rank of the immortal realm.

In the general understanding of the myriad realms, the seventh and eighth grade immortal realms are already quite advanced existences, often with mythical realm powerhouses presiding over them and ruling over large star fields.

However, in Fang Qing's eyes, who has now reached the fifth level of mythology, the highest combat power of these so-called high-level immortal realms is at most the third level of mythology, and those who can reach the fourth level of shattered godhood are extremely rare.

The Fivefold "Nirvana God"? That's practically a legend, existing only in the higher realm of immortals.

"Holy Sword Celestial Realm", "Refreshing Celestial Realm", "Great World of Thick Earth", "Mysterious Ice Glazed Realm"...

Fang Qing's figure moved like the most cunning ghost, traversing the core areas of these seventh and eighth-rank immortal realms.

He did not conceal his terrifying aura of being at the fifth level of mythology, but even so, it was enough to cause a major earthquake in these immortal realms.

When he descended upon the Holy Sword Celestial Realm, a realm renowned for its swordsmanship, its strongest ancestor was merely at the peak of the third level of the Mythical Transformation Realm, currently in seclusion attempting to break through to the fourth level of the Shattered God Realm.

Fang Qing merely pointed a finger at the Myriad Swords Mountain where the old man was in seclusion, and an unparalleled pressure that combined chaos and dominion descended, directly waking the Holy Sword Ancestor from his deep seclusion and scaring him out of his wits.

Sensing the terrifying aura that far surpassed his own and was utterly unbearable, the Holy Sword Ancestor couldn't even muster the thought of resistance. He immediately broke through his cultivation barrier, led all the elders of his sect, and knelt before Fang Qing, expressing his willingness to submit to the entire realm.

When Fang Qing stepped into the Qingxin Celestial Realm, this realm was skilled in alchemy and the cultivation of spiritual plants. Its Qingxin Celestial Emperor was a second-level Divine Refinement cultivator of the Mythical Realm.

Fang Qing only showed a little of his skills, but it shocked the Immortal Emperor Qingxin, who mainly cultivated with wood and life elements, to the point that he bowed down and willingly offered up the right to rule the Immortal Realm.

The Thick Earth God of the "Great World of Thick Earth" is a mythological deity with three transformations. He attempted to rely on the advantages of the terrain and mobilize the power of the Earth element of the entire Immortal Realm to set up the "Ten Thousand Mountains Suppressing God Formation" to resist.

Fang Qing didn't even make a move; he simply released the Daoist essence of the "Mysterious Turtle Carrying the Heavens Immortal Divine Art" slightly, transforming it into a hazy phantom of a mysterious turtle, and gently stepped forward.

The Earthly Array, which was said to be able to suppress even a fourth-level Mythical Realm cultivator, collapsed like a sandcastle encountering a tsunami.

Thick Earth God Lord coughed up blood and flew backward, his face ashen, with no will to fight left.

The Ice Glass Empress of the Xuanbing Glazed Realm was also a master of the third level of mythology. Fang Qing only glanced at her, and the Daoist charm of the "True Method of Heavenly Thunder Tribulation Control" and the "Chaos Flame Emperor Burning the World Scripture" flashed in his eyes. The Ice Glass Empress felt that the Xuanbing Law she had cultivated for billions of years was about to melt and collapse, and her soul was as if it were being roasted by heavenly thunder and earthly fire at the same time.

She finally understood that in the face of an absolute power disparity, so-called dignity and perseverance were meaningless, and she bowed her head in dejection and submitted.

……

Fang Qing was like a mythical supreme being walking in the world. Wherever he went, the rulers of the seventh and eighth-rank immortal realms all surrendered and submitted to him.

He was not a bloodthirsty person; he mainly used intimidation. As long as the other party was willing to submit, he would promise them entry into the higher realm of the Myriad Realms King Map, where they would enjoy a better cultivation environment and protection, and would also have the opportunity to seek higher realms in the future.

This is undoubtedly an irresistible temptation for many mythical ancestors who are trapped in their own realm and have little future.

Of course, there are also a very few who are stubborn, or have special backgrounds, and try to resist or bargain.

Fang Qing's approach to these matters was simple and direct: eliminate them!

With swift and decisive action, he and his core cronies were completely wiped out of the world. Then, with supreme power, his immortal origin was forcibly extracted and incorporated into the Myriad Realms King Map.

In a short period of time, Fang Qing swept through the world like autumn leaves, visiting and subduing seven seventh-rank immortal realms and five eighth-rank immortal realms, totaling twelve high-rank immortal realms. Along with the countless immortals, immeasurable resources, and complete law systems under their rule, he moved them, either wholly or partially, into the Myriad Realms King Map.

The interior of the Myriad Realms King Map thus became even more lively and prosperous.

These newly added celestial realms were carefully placed by Fang Qing in different areas around the Taihuangtian Celestial Realm using his supreme magical power. They retained considerable independence, but also established a close connection with Taihuangtian through the Law of the King's Map, forming a multi-layered celestial realm community with Taihuangtian as its core.

As the core and ruler of this vast immortal realm, the Taihuang Heavenly Immortal Realm, after absorbing so much of the fortune and law fragments of higher immortal realms, as well as the continuous nourishment from the Myriad Realms King Map itself, began another crazy advancement!

The platinum and rainbow light on its crystal wall system became even more dazzling, the internal space expanded rapidly again, the concentration and quality of the divine source energy soared, and the perfection of the laws was approaching those of the old-fashioned eighth-grade immortal realms!
Even more, some innate divine objects and advanced law-based secret realms that could only appear in the ninth-level immortal realm began to emerge!

Under Fang Qing's almost frenzied "plundering" and "feeding," the "prestige" of the Taihuang Heavenly Immortal Realm soared from the previous level four all the way to level five, level six, level seven... and finally, it broke through the limit and reached the level of the eighth-grade immortal realm!
The Eighth-Level Immortal Realm, the Taihuang Heaven! (End of Chapter)
