Lord Bowang had a tragic end. How tragic it was? It made Wu Qi shudders whenever he thought of it.

It happened like this. Princess Zhang Le had helped the six states migrated all their civilians and armies to Dong Hai. She was in high spirits, because among the descendants of their imperial clans and powerful clans, she managed to find hundreds of thousands of excellent seedlings who were suitable to cultivate the Art of Ghost God taught among Great Yu's Oracles, and she had happily brought them back to Dong Hai City, planning to teach them using the spirit cave beneath the city.

However, as soon as she saw Lord Bowang, who was stripped naked and being tortured midair, and when she heard that this guy had harbored an ill intention against her, she flew into a rage. As a result, the grand feast the group of demon immortals was looking forward to was no longer a thing, because their food was thoroughly tortured by the princess with the means of the feudal court.

In those days, all kinds of means were used in feudal court struggles. They were dark, cruel, and brutal. In a frenzy of rage, Princess Zhang Le ordered the old eunuchs from Great Yan's imperial palace to torture Lord Bowang with the cruelest means. His cultivation base was completely crippled, his immortal soul was trapped in his body using the Seven Orifices Soul Imprisoning Nails, and to prevent him from dying he was fed with life-saving pills. After seven days of screaming and howling, going through all kinds of punishment invented by those famous tyrants such as King Jie of Xia and King Zhou of Shang, he was turned into a living cured meat.

Irrespective of his status as the Heaven's crown prince, he cried and begged Princess Zhang Le to just let him die. But how could someone who had offended her die so easily? So, Lord Bowang, who had become less of a human being but more of a monster, was put into an iron cage and hung in front of the city gate next to a striking yellow silk ribbon, which read 'The Crown Prince of Heaven, Lord Bowang'.

Every three to five days, one of his arms or legs was severed by someone, who also removed a few of his internal organs. After that, he was healed with immortal pills or mystic arts, which grew back his missing arms, legs, and organs. As it would take some time for the severed arms and legs to become rotten, they were neatly stacked under the cage.

It was a brutal punishment for a living man to look at his own arms, legs, and organs piled up into a hill before his eyes, and suffer the cruel torture of having his arms, legs, and organs removed every three to five days. But all that Lord Bowang could do was struggled and howled in agony, begging for a quick death. He had regretted so much why he had offended such a horrific woman as Princess Zhang Le. But there was no regret medicine in the world!

As Lord Bowang continued to be tortured in Dong Hai, the Heaven did not make any further move.


Wu Qi and Princess Zhang Le soon forgot all about the wildly arrogant Lord Bowang and began to focus their attention on improving Dong Hai's overall strength. Millions of carefully selected soldiers and hundreds of thousands of candidates who had the potential to become Oracles were secretly sent into the spirit cave beneath King Dong Hai Mansion, where Wu Qi had accelerated the time with his Dark Yin Celestial Tower to help them improve their cultivation bases.

Time was accelerated by two thousandfold. It was the limit that Wu Qi's current magic power could push to. Even though he had obtained the attainment of Dao Breaking, his magic power did not catch up. As a result, the rate of how much time could be accelerated by the Dark Yin Celestial Tower remained the same. Only when he kept improving his magic power and cultivation base, then could he accelerate time further.

Dong Hai was crazily training its force once again, and it was unlike last time, when they were in You Xiong Plain. Wu Qi had dozens of Primordial experts helping him this time. And, with all the innate divine trees in Yuan Ling Dark Realm, the progress of both the soldiers and Oracles were a hundred times faster.

The common soldiers and Oracles were unable to take advantage of the spirit pills concocted with the divine trees. Even Wu Qi dared not to consume them straight away. But when a drop or two of the sap taken from these trees were added into a pool, the water in it would immediately be given various incredible effects, such as tempering one's body and strengthening one's soul. All in all, it had enormous benefits and had contributed greatly to the growth of Dong Hai's army and Oracles.

The vast spirit cave was densely dotted with numerous army camps. Deafening battle cries could be heard all day long, and everywhere there were voices of Oracles reciting spells. As the cultivation techniques of the human race were quick to attain a significant result, basically every thirty years the Oracles and soldiers here would be replaced, because their cultivation bases had reached a considerable level.

During the thirty years of training, eighteen of Wu Qi's clones had used some magic of the Fiend League to brainwash and imbue the soldiers and Oracles with absolute loyalty. Regardless of where they came from, whether they were the natives of Pangu Continent or the descendants of the six states, these people came here with all sorts of thoughts, but when they left, there was only one thing that was engraved deeply in their souls — absolute loyalty to Wu Qi. They could die for him at any time.

The emperors and courtiers of the six states had also entered the spirit cave to train. From time to time, Wu Qi would use the clones he manifested with his divine soul to teach them the profound mysteries of the Great Dao. Under his deliberate training, their progress advanced at a tremendous pace, and together with the help of the sap taken from all kinds of divine trees in Yuan Ling Dark Realm, Yan Dan, Ying Zheng, and others were cultivating much faster than Patriarch Jiang Yun and others were.

After cultivating three hundred years in the spirit cave, Wu Qi's magic power and cultivation base broke through into the seventh tier of the Primordial realm, and he was able to accelerate time by four thousandfold. Five hundred years later, he broke through the sixth tier, and the time acceleration was increased by another one thousandfold. Six hundred years later, he stepped into the fifth tier, and the time acceleration was increased by another one thousandfold...

Everyone was cultivating wholeheartedly for breakthroughs, and so was Wu Qi. While his clones were bustled around, his true-self was in the very heart of the spirit cave, right below the pyramid, dwelling in a secluded cultivation. It was the spot with the richest natural energy in the cave, where the energy was almost compressed into a big chunk of energy crystal.

Although he had an endless supply of natural energy and the countless divine trees to back him up, Wu Qi's cultivation base had not improved as fast as the Shadow said. It was because he was using the Heaven Refining Grand Magic to refine all his cultivation techniques from scratch.

Heaven Refining Grand Magic, with one's own body as the material, using the Heaven Refining Cauldron to blend everything in the universe with oneself. The unique Yuan Ling energy in Yuan Ling Dark Realm was the fuel of this cauldron, and it was very effective in strengthening one's fleshly body and divine soul. It was Heaven Refining Grand Magic that gave Lord Yuan Ling a fleshly body so strong that it was ranked the third strongest among all the countless Chaotic Fiend Gods.

The reason that Lord Yuan Ling was able shocked the Chaotic World with his amazing skills in both the alchemy and artifact refinement was because of the strength of his divine soul; it was also ranked the third strongest among all the countless Chaotic Fiend Gods. Only with the power of divine soul that was immensely strong, and at the same time, could control the smallest detail, that he was able to perfectly control the temperature in the cauldrons and furnaces, and produced supreme-grade spirit pills and artifacts.

Under the pyramid, a purple flame was burning ragingly inside the 1000-foot-tall Heaven Refining Cauldron. Wu Qi was sitting cross-legged in the cauldron and let the flame temper his body, crazily smelting himself like a piece of metal. He began from the fundamental techniques of energy refining and foundation-laying, slowly using the technique of Heaven Refining Grand Magic to temper himself, while constantly absorbing Yuan Ling energy and countless sap harvested from divine trees.

He had cultivated many strange and eccentric techniques. Although he had used chaotic energy to neutralize the effects of these contradictory energies on him, they had left a mark in his body, making it no longer pure. But Heaven Refining Grand Magic was a cultivation technique that refined oneself to the purest degree possible.

The innate thievery energy seized everything, and Heaven Refining Grand Magic refined these things into one. The vast amount of chaotic energy in his body was thoroughly refined as well. It was already extremely pure to begin with, but Heaven Refining Grand Magic had refined it further. In the end, ten thousand portions of chaotic energy were refined into a portion of Primal Purple Energy, which only appeared once when Pangu created the world, and was only known to a small number of Chaotic Fiend Gods.

During the first three hundred years in his secluded cultivation, Wu Qi did nothing but refine all his blood, flesh, and energy. He sought only to refine himself for perfection, but he did not dream that when he had fused all his blood essence and energy as one, including the immense amount of natural energy provided by all the energy veins in his interstitial world, and all the energy he had absorbed during the three hundred years, they eventually transformed into a thread of pure, indestructible Primal Purple Energy.

Among the Chaotic Fiend Gods, this Primal Purple Energy had another name — the foundation of Dao Fusing!

Without Primal Purple Energy, if there are enough luck and fortune, you will still have the hope of stepping into the realm of Dao Fusing. But with Primal Purple Energy, so long as your cultivation base is gradually improving, you will be able to step into the realm of Dao Fusing naturally without facing any obstacles. It is like having a special pass.

The immortal energy of Primordial Immortals and Divine Golden Immortals were borrowed from the Heavenly Dao. The differences were nothing but how much the aura of the Heavenly Dao was contained in the immortal energy, and the purity. Primal Purple Energy, on the other hand, was the pure condensation of the Heavenly Dao. The spell cast with it was the actual manifestation of the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, even if it was just a common palm-thunder, its power was exactly the same as the Heavenly Tribulation cast down by the Heavenly Dao.

Wu Qi continued his cultivation, immersed in Heaven Refining Grand Magic and devoid of either joy or sadness. Immeasurable natural energy fused into his body; there was no more chaotic energy in him, but a roiling purple mist. A random movement of his would cause the purple mist to soar around him and the surrounding void to churn like porridge.

The innate thievery energy and the Primal Purple Energy had been merged as one. Now, with just a thought, Wu Qi was able to absorb the surrounding natural energy in an almost predatory manner and at a speed that was at least ten thousand times faster than before. The level of his magic power ascended tier after tier, it was so fast that it could frighten all other Primordial Immortals to death.

If it were not for the fact that he had to temper both his fleshly body and divine soul while improving his magic power and cultivation base at the same time, he would probably have ascended to the realm of Dao Breaking in just a few decades, possessing the magic power and cultivation base of a sixth-tier Dao Breaking expert.

The True Body of Heaven and Earth Scripture was born out of Pangu's body-tempering cultivation technique, and the Dragon Transformation Script was born out of Ancestral Dragon's body-tempering cultivation technique. As both of them were not the original techniques practiced by their creators, how could the fleshly body cultivated with them be as strong as one that was refined with Lord Yuan Ling's Heaven Refining Grand Magic? So, Wu Qi refined his body inch by inch from the ground up, using entirely Heaven Refining Grand Magic.

On the basis of Heaven Refining Grand Magic, Wu Qi blended in the advantages of Pangu Sacred Energy and innate dragon energy. By using Yuan Ling energy, Pangu Sacred Energy, and innate dragon energy to temper his body at the same time, the toughness of his new fleshly body could no longer be judged by the present standard; it had gone beyond common sense.

Magic power, fleshly body, divine soul!

Sitting inside the cauldron, Wu Qi slowly refined himself and patiently improved his overall strength.

On one fine day, the time acceleration of Dark Yin Celestial Tower was increased to ten thousandfold, and Wu Qi's magic power and cultivation base had finally stood firmly at the peak-level of the Primordial realm.

A shrill voice interrupted Wu Qi's cultivation.

"Your Highness, the Third Prince of Heaven is shouting abuses and challenging us outside the city!"Guys,They were both famous emperors in Chinese history.
