Chapter 3416: Secluded Cultivation

Hun Zang could not help but smile wryly after hearing Jian Chen’s words and said in reply, “Let alone Grand Exalt, even Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime is a realm that our Martial Soul lineage is only able to look up to.”

“My cultivation has already reached Grand Prime, but my comprehension remains stuck at the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Chaotic Prime. I can’t be considered as an actual Grand Prime under these circumstances. As a result, even if our cultivation can be developed over time through arduous cultivation and reach the level of a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime, our comprehension will not progress, remaining forever stuck at the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Chaotic Prime.” Chu Jian sighed as well. The greatest obstacle that the Martial Soul lineage faced right now was being unable to break through with their comprehension.

“Don’t tell me we can’t break through to Grand Prime either when we comprehend other laws?” Jian Chen asked.

Chu Jian shook his head. “Absolutely no law works! Moreover, there is no way to change the current situation. Otherwise, the countless predecessors of our Martial Soul lineage would have embarked down a different road a long time ago.”

“Of course, that is unless the ninth successor of our Martial Soul lineage appears. The only way we know that can change the current situation of the Martial Soul lineage is when the nine successors gather.”

Jian Chen remained silent. He had already heard too much about the nine successors. The assembly of the nine successors could indeed let the Martial Soul lineage rise up and completely change their fate.

That involved ignoring the limitations of comprehension and directly reaching Grand Prime. That was the new path they had paved the last time the nine successors of the Martial Soul lineage assembled together.

“In the past, the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths said the reason why we couldn’t breakthrough was because we were sealed off by the ways. Looks like that’s true. The one behind it all is probably the giant hand condensed from the three thousand ways. That should be the true heavenly way,” Yue Chao said with mixed feelings.

As soon as they thought of the giant hand condensed from the three thousand laws, everyone felt deeply helpless, including Jian Chen.

Grasping one way completely was enough to become a sovereign of a world. The Anatta Grand Exalt had already become so terrifying from grasping four ways. If it were three thousand ways instead, then that would truly be beyond belief.

“Enough. Let’s stop thinking about this. We don’t know why the heavenly way personally killed the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineage, but there is something we can be certain about. An expert like the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineage must stand at a certain height in order to draw the attention of the heavenly way, so we should have nothing to worry about at all,” Hun Zang said suddenly, immediately bringing everyone out of their repressive feelings.

“First senior brother is right. Unless we’ve reached a certain degree of strength, which is an existence on par with Grand Exalts at the very least, we won’t attract the attention of the heavenly way at all. Thinking about it now is just letting our imaginations run wild,” Yun Ziting said.

“Seniors, the grade of the Martial Soul Rock here is unprecedented. Let’s try and find a way to cultivate here instead. If we can cultivate here, it’ll be several dozen times faster compared to outside at the very least,” said Qing Shan. They were already three hundred metres deep. The purity of the Martial Soul Rock at this depth was extremely startling, which made even Qing Shan green with greed.

Jian Chen also had that in mind. The Overarching Heaven Grand Exalt constantly observed the Saints’ World right now. Even if he had the Divine Armour of Heavenflight and the mask from the Illusionary Daemon race, he could not wander around outside, so he had actually come to the Martial Soul Mountain with the mentality that he would cultivate his Martial Soul Force.

If he could cultivate Martial Soul Force three hundred metres deep in the Martial Soul Rock, he knew even without thinking that he would make extremely startling progress.

However, the biggest problem right now was that the Martial Soul Rock had become intangible to them after forming the Martial Soul Array. They could see it, but they could not touch it.

As a result, it was impossible for them to excavate the Martial Soul Rock under these circumstances.

However, they truly did not dare to stop the Martial Soul Array so easily given their current circumstances, as none of them knew what would happen.

If it were handled badly, perhaps they would bury themselves alive.

“Let’s forget about excavating the Martial Soul Rock. Let’s just try and see if we can directly absorb the nearby Martial Soul Force while we maintain the Martial Soul Array,” Hun Zang said.

When they heard that, everyone looked at one another. Cultivating while maintaining the Martial Soul Array? They had never tried something like that before.

That was because they normally used the Martial Soul Array to fend off powerful enemies. They had never considered using it for cultivation.

They got right to work. The eight of them maintained the Martial Soul Array as they crossed their legs and sat down. They began to try and absorb the Martial Soul Force.

But very soon, everyone opened their eyes helplessly, including Hun Zang. They all failed to absorb any Martial Soul Force.

“Remaining here and cultivating won’t work out. Looks like we can only go back outside and excavate the Martial Soul Rock like before.”

At this moment, Jian Chen seemed to think of something. A streak of light flashed through his eyes. After a moment of hesitation, he shut his eyes resolutely. A few seconds later, waves of pure Martial Soul Force suddenly gathered over from the surroundings, three hundred metres deep in the Martial Soul Rock vein, condensing around Jian Chen.

In the end, all of the Martial Soul Force was absorbed by him.

“Hmm? Eighth junior brother, you can cultivate here?” The seven of them immediately sensed the Martial Soul Force and turned towards Jian Chen in surprise.

Jian Chen stopped absorbing Martial Soul Force. He opened his eyes slowly with a hint of excitement. “Senior brothers and sisters, abandon your previous cultivation methods and use the Method of the Exalted Saint. The Method of Exalted Saint can allow us to absorb the Martial Soul Force here without hindrance.”

Everyone became slightly excited when they heard that. Without any hesitation, they all began to cultivate the Method of the Exalted Saint.

The Method of the Exalted Saint had been obtained by Jian Chen from the Tower of Radiance previously. It was the cultivation method practised by the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineage. After the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineage perished, this was the first time a Grand Exalt’s cultivation method had been spread among the Martial Soul lineage.

Without any exaggeration, the eight of them were the only generation to practise the Method of the Exalted Saint since the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineage.

Perhaps there were people in the past who found the method to pass through the Martial Soul Rock using the Martial Soul Array, but they did not have the Method of the Exalted Saint.

Without this Grand Exalt’s cultivation method, even if past people could enter here with the Martial Soul Array, they were unable to absorb the Martial Soul Force here.

Afterwards, the eight of them maintained the Martial Soul Array. They seemed to merge with the Martial Soul Rock as they began to absorb the Martial Soul Force from the depths.

Immediately, a great storm of energy brewed in the depths of the Martial Soul Rock.

The eight successors of the Martial Soul lineage gathered together, practising the Method of the Exalted Saint at the same time to absorb Martial Soul Force. That immediately created a colossal swirl of energy where the eight of them resided. They rapidly absorbed the Martial Soul Force that was several times more pure than the outside.

Jian Chen began a lengthy period of secluded cultivation inside the Martial Soul Mountain, devoting all of his time to strengthening his Martial Soul Force.

During this time, he had ventured out once. He arrived on the surface of the Martial Soul Mountain and told the Wind Venerable that he planned to cultivate in seclusion on the Martial Soul Mountain.

The Wind Venerable obviously did not stop him. He only instructed Jian Chen carefully to not leave the vicinity of the Martial Soul Mountain without good reason before returning to the Spiritsages alone.

However, despite returning to the Spiritsages, he constantly paid attention to what happened near the Martial Soul Mountain, clearly still rather worried about Jian Chen.
