Chapter 830 - 77: Annihilating Buddhism (Part 1)_2
Boom!
The sonic boom reappeared.
Duncan's aura remained as steady as a rock. Holding Lu Qiongxi in his arms, he looked up at the moon, and after confirming his ability to perform high-altitude flight, he infused his True Yuan into the Yongquan acupoint, with the Fierce Gale protecting his entire body. Then, he performed the double Kunpeng Transformation, accelerating sharply like a double jump, quickly taking Lu Qiongxi into the clouds.
This was no longer just a body technique.
This was a Divine Power!
After extinguishing the Southern Han and taking Later Shu, millions of citizens were gradually settling under his banner. The childhood promise had already been partially fulfilled, and his state of mind had undergone some changes. The bottleneck of the Dao Entrance Realm was becoming increasingly fragile, and even the Three Corpses dared not appear before him in illusions.
True Yuan is endlessly regenerating.
The unmatched Secret Techniques that Duncan mastered were operating in sequence, starting with the Celestial Demon Technique, followed by the Everlasting Youth Technique, and then the Great Wisdom of Love, Yin Yang Secret Scripture, and others. The attributes of True Yuan subtly changed with each technique. When the Celestial Demon True Essence was stimulated, its explosive power was strong, and both the Carefree Traveling and Kunpeng Transformation gained in might. Meanwhile, the Everlasting Youth Technique allowed him to swiftly replenish his consumed True Yuan. As for the other techniques, the Great Wisdom of Love's true emptiness and marvelous existence could allow his state of mind to enter a state of great joy and freedom.
Eight thousand meters.
Twelve thousand meters.
Lu Qiongxi began to feel a bit of difficulty breathing, whether due to the sharpness of the gale or some other reason. As the altitude continued to climb, she actually saw the clouds beneath her feet. Duncan finally paused his ascent, holding Lu Qiongxi's slender waist with one hand, standing atop the clouds as if standing on cotton, creating ripples of air waves.
In the distance, a ray of sunlight was visible, and the bright moon seemed within reach, with even crater-like marks visible.
They had entered the stratosphere.
Roughly equivalent to the altitude of future aircraft flights, Duncan's True Yuan was approximately one twentieth consumed. If he exerted himself, he indeed had the opportunity to directly leave the atmosphere, as his True Yuan replenishment was quite fast.
"It seems that this world is also a planet, but there are some differences in the spatial layers."
Standing above the sea of clouds, Duncan, with Lu Qiongxi clinging tightly to his arm, understood that falling from this height could be fatal even for someone at the Half-step Dao Realm.
—Summon the wind and call for rain!
—Condense clouds into dew!
Duncan casually extended a palm, and beside him, a gigantic hundred-meter handprint appeared in the sea of clouds. The clouds gathered into rainwater, and then, infused with a cold True Yuan, instantly froze into ice. He strolled along the sea of clouds, as if on a leisurely walk after tea, stepping on the cotton-like cloud layers.
Lu Qiongxi held his arm tightly, breathing rapidly, her expression excited as she watched the god-like methods before her.
Duncan raised his head once more to look at the moon.
For some reason, he felt the moon seemed a bit fake, different from the one in his previous life.
"The evolution of this world truly resembles an independent plane."
"Breaking through the atmosphere?"
"Would that mean leaving this space?"
Duncan's figure ascended higher once again. He saw neither a heavenly palace nor the Southern Gate of Heaven, understanding that his enemies, like himself, were rooted in mundane existence. This world's Power of Faith had yet to evolve into the thirty-three heavens.
Finally, he steadied himself, slowly descending onto a sea of clouds, seemingly in good spirits, glancing at the snow-white-skinned Lu Qiongxi beside him.
With her sharp wits, Lu Qiongxi instantly guessed his intention, trembling as she clung to Duncan, kneeling upon the sea of clouds.
After an unspecified amount of time.
A brilliant sun emerged at the horizon's end.
Duncan had more or less finished appreciating the stratosphere. His figure, holding the blushing Lu Qiongxi, plummeted rapidly, listening to the fierce gale whistling past her ears. To her, everything felt dreamlike, almost thinking Your Majesty would take her to shatter the void and leave this world.
Alas.
It seemed Your Majesty merely intended to go skyward to see the moon. After staring at it for a long time, he sighed deeply, indicating for her to rise.
Crescent Moon Sky Charge.
Were it not for his accustomed supreme status, Duncan feared he might transform into the native personification of his forebears at any moment.
Dawn at daybreak.
Amid the shocked gazes of numerous inner palace experts, Duncan, holding Lu Qiongxi, descended like a celestial being to the near earth, gradually slowing his descent. Then, his figure soared lightly, finally landing gently on the surface of Maha Pond.
Standing on the water, Lu Qiongxi's heart finally settled back into place. With her Qinggong skills, walking atop the waves was not a difficult task.
However, standing on water leaving the slightest toe damp, as Duncan did, was beyond the capability of ordinary individuals.
"Go."
"Arrange for the palace attendants, then select a group to be sent to Xingwang Mansion for further training."
Duncan patted Lu Qiongxi's full moon.
Lu Qiongxi, still filled with excitement and her face flushed, respectfully saluted, "Yes, Your Majesty."
There were many eunuchs here as well.
Even if deprived of their Ji'er, they should not lose hope. Within this world's cultivation system, should they achieve the Dao Entrance Realm, regrowing was not out of the question.
The Dao Entrance Realm is a dividing line; crossing it marks the beginning of a qualitative change.
Duncan would not underestimate any expert reaching the Dao Entrance Realm. If a eunuch could achieve such a state, he would not hesitate to promote them, granting any reasonable requests, as the King of Kings had always been generous.
"I still lack a Zheng He!"
