At Level 7 of the Supreme Pagoda, Jiang Ming encountered a bird-headed creature covered in scarlet gold.

  He checked the Human Path Records, and it was only then that he knew that the creature was from a race known as the Golden Demons.

  Initially, the creature was delighted to see someone here, but his face sank when he realized that Jiang Ming was a human.

  Jiang Ming offered him a smile, but he did not say anything. He sat in a lotus position and checked on his Paradis World. After absorbing the Word heart, the breadth of the inner world had reached three million kilometers in circumference, and the transformation process was still going on.

  After the laws and order had reached a certain point, the inner world would undergo a huge transformation and become a true world.

  However, Jiang Ming did not have the confidence that he could achieve that even though he had absorbed the World Heart.

  After a short while, he came to the Million Dao Chart.

  Since his cultivation level had increased by leap and bounds, he had reached another realm, and he had nearly mastered some of the laws. He figured it was about time for him to add some new special abilities into his arsenal.

  He was now at the later stage of the Extreme Path Realm.

  At present, he just needed to master one law fully and could reach the peak of the Extreme Path.

  After acquiring a few special abilities, he went to the Dao Monument to further his understanding of some Daos, such as the Five Elemental Dao and the Yin-Yang Dao. After that, he came to the Million Dao Chart again.

  Since he had ascended into another realm, his life expectancy had increased greatly, so he did not care about the passage of time.

  His life expectancy was several hundred times greater than that of the normal Extreme Path expert due to his inner world.

  This year, Jiang Ming stood up and walked toward the Heavenly Ladder. As for the golden birdman, he was already gone.

  He lifted his head and noticed that there was not much change to the Heavenly Ladder.

  “Last time, my willpower was equivalent to that of a Level 11 expert. I wonder how many levels I can reach this time?”


  Jiang Ming surmised that a Level 11 expert was considered an immortal being. This was what Dongfang Chenxi told him. It was only by stepping into the Immortal Realm that one could consider them had entered the first sphere of heaven.

  Jiang Ming stepped onto the Heavenly Ladder, and his body trembled.

  The first step was comparable to the willpower of an early Level 11 expert.

  He froze for a moment before moving up step by step.

  Soon, he arrived at the 8th level, and just when he was about to reach the 9th level, he trembled slightly.

  Huff…


  He let out a breath and took a step forward.

  As soon as his feet landed on the 9th level, Jiang Ming felt as if a sword had landed on his soul. The attack was so powerful that it sent a chill down his spine.

  ICCE

  Jiang Ming’s heart glowed and successfully defended against the attack.

  “Again!”


  He continued.

  The 11th level, the 12th level…


  He continued to move forward until the 18th level in one setting. His face was pale, while his entire body was shaking profusely.

  On the 19th level, his willpower was crushed, and his vision turned black. By the time he opened his eyes again, he had already appeared below the Heavenly Ladder.

  “Congratulations to Jiang Ming on conquering 18 levels of the Heavenly Ladder. You have earned 990 points! Note: The higher one expert is in one realm, the more difficult it would be for them to pass one level. Thus, the rewards would be increased.”


  Jiang Ming listened to the voice in his head, and his mind drifted off.

  He would be awarded 1 point for each level of the first nine steps in the past, but now the reward had been increased by ten times.

  He took a short break and came to the Heavenly Battle Stage. Same as before, nothing had changed. He walked across the corridor and came to the first stage, and to his surprise, Jun Sanqian did not appear. The battlefield had also changed to a separate space.

  “Jiang Ming, kill the opponents in front of you!” The voice rang out again.

  10 people were standing in front of him. One of them was the Imminent Immortal expert, while the remaining nine were at the Extreme Path Realm. All of them were humans.

  Rumble!

  Jiang Ming activated his Paradis Projections and killed all ten of them in one hit; even the Imminent Immortal expert was no match for him.

  “I have become so strong already?” Jiang Ming exclaimed.

  He did not know how strong he had become. After all, the inner world was something beyond common sense, so there was no standard frame of reference for him to gauge how strong he had become.

  He got 10 points from this stage.

  On the 2nd stage…


  He was matched up against 10 opponents too. Two of them were Imminent Immortals, while the remaining were Extreme Path experts.

  He defeated all of them without any difficulties and got 20 points.

  On the 3rd stage, there were four Imminent Immortal and six Extreme Path experts. He made quick work of them and got 40 points. Jiang Ming continued to move forward, and when he stepped onto the 4th stage, he appeared in the sky.

  There was an island, surrounded by stormy seas, ahead of him.

  “Jiang Ming, destroy the Canglan Sect!”


  This time, it was not a voice but a line of words written in blood that appeared in front of him.

  “Seems like the requirement to clear the stage has changed!”


  As the thought surfaced in Jiang Ming’s head, he extended his consciousness forward into the Akasa to check on the Canglan Sect. However, since an array protected the sect, he couldn’t see the things inside.

  Dong! Dong! Dong!

  At the same time, the sound of a bell rang, and human figures appeared from the Canglan Sect one after another. The one standing at the front of the group was an old man in the Imminent Immortal Realm.

  “Incoming attack! Hurry up and activate the formation!” the old man shouted.

  In the next second, several rays of starlight descended from the sky and surrounded Jiang Ming.

  “Once the Seven Stars Immortal Extermination Formation has surrounded you, you won’t be able to escape from it even if you are an immortal! Die!” the old man shouted.

  As soon as his voice died away, seven Imminent Immortal experts stepped into the starlights, followed by 49 Extreme Path experts and 108 Paradis experts. All of them sat around the formation and powered it up. Jiang Ming stood silently in the formation. His surroundings were filled with an endless amount of starlight, and every bit of starburst contained an extremely frightening power. He couldn’t blink out of the formation either.

  “Well, I guess it’s time for some action.” Jiang Ming waved his arms, and a surge of terrifying power appeared from him.

  At that moment, the formation turned into a long sword made of starlight and dashed straight at Jiang Ming.

  “It’s almost as strong as an immortal weapon.” Jiang Ming deduced.

  He raised his hand and crushed the blade before it could even touch him.

  “Starry Rain!” The old man’s voice rang out again.

  He saw the endless starlight turn into countless tiny swords in the next second. They all charged toward Jiang Ming at top speed, and each of them was no weaker than the long sword they threw at him.

  “This is interesting!”


  Jiang Ming darted forward, leaving several afterimages behind. In the blink of an eye, he threw 1,800 punches to the front and crushed all of the swords that fell on him.

  “If this is what you’ve got, then die!” he shouted. He amassed his strength on his palm and activated the Sky Dawn.

  Bam!

  The formation distorted, and 108 Paradis experts burst into a mist of blood. The 49 Extreme Path experts spurted blood, and the 7 Imminent Immortal experts’ faces were dark.

  “Guys, I guess we have no other choice but to activate the forbidden technique to destroy this monster!” the old man shouted. “Let’s sacrifice ourselves to power up the formation and bring forth the power of a star!”


  All of the experts burned their Primal Spirits and merged their power into the formation, forming into a blazing giant star known as the sun and descended on Jiang Ming.
