A heaven-defying monster like him was as rare as a unicorn horn in the Ancient Nebula Road.

At least, as far as Heng Xiao knew, they could only be found in the Great Six Courts.

Time passed by.

Heng Xiao finally was able to heave a sigh of relief when no more reinforcements request came from the secret realm. Otherwise, he would have to personally go onto the battlefield.

Buzz—

Around ten minutes later, the entrance of the secret realm rippled and Lin Xun, hair in disarray and clothes torn, staggered out.

Upon a closer look, his face was pale and his qi was circulating weakly.

Heng Xiao’s eyelids twitched, and he asked with concern, “Little friend, were they too ruthless and wounded you?”

Lin Xun shook his head and smiled. “No, the battle was extremely satisfying. I must thank you for your help.”

Heng Xiao said with a smile. “That’s good, I’m glad. Little Friend, you just came out of a fierce battle, you should go back and take a good rest and also to stabilize your cultivation.”

Lin Xun nodded and said goodbye.

Watching him leave, Heng Xiao couldn’t help but let out an emotional sigh, “This junior martial uncle of our founding ancestor is indeed awfully fierce.”

“No!”

Suddenly, Heng Xiao realized something was wrong. Why haven’t Hong Yu, Tai Zheng and the others come out yet?

He darted into the secret realm and his eyes almost popped out when he saw Hong Yu and the others sitting cross-legged on the ground.

Every single one of them was a sorry sight—battered and bruised beyond recognition with clothes ripped and disheveled…

They were five quasi-Emperors, and they all had a mighty reputation in Xuanji Dao Sect!

But now, they looked like they had suffered a violent beating. Heng Xiao couldn’t bear to look at them.

“That kid is a monster!”

“Alas, I am so old, and I am so useless.”

“If anyone dares to leak what happened today, I swear I will kill them!”

Hong Yu and the others gnashed their teeth indignantly.

Meanwhile, Heng Xiao was even more glad that he did not personally spar with Lin Xun. Otherwise, he likely would have suffered the same outcome as everyone else.

……

After returning to his grotto, Lin Xun sat down in meditation.

In the battle with the five quasi-Emperors, both sides agreed not to activate any weapons, treasures, or trump cards.

Even so, he was able to hold his own against the combined power of five quasi-Emperors!

Hong Yu, Tai Zheng and He Zhu looked more tragic than the others, but in fact it was because they were outmatched by Lin Xun at the beginning.

It was not until Shui Qiu and Jin Jiuling rushed in together that Lin Xun finally felt tremendous pressure and became overpowered in the battle.

However, he was very confident that if he were permitted to use treasures or an innate bloodline power like Time Stopping, he definitely would not be the one defeated in the end!

This battle allowed him to gain a deeper understanding of his own strength, but also grasp profound secrets of the Quasi-Emperor Stage.

Quasi-Emperors stood above all Saints and were infinitely close to the Emperor Stage!

At the Quasi-Emperor Stage, the three different cultivation bases of a cultivator, namely physical cultivation, spirit cultivation and qi cultivation, would each condense to form a Dao Divine Flame.

This was known as the Quasi-Emperor Triple Flame!

Once one Dao Divine Flame was condensed, it was regarded as the first level of the Quasi-Emperor Stage.

When two were formed, it was the second level of the Quasi-Emperor Stage.

When all three Dao Divine Flames of physical cultivation, spirit cultivation and qi cultivation were condensed, it was called the third level of the Quasi-Emperor Stage.

Ninety-nine percent of quasi-Emperors in the world were stagnant at the first level of the Quasi-Emperor Stage.

The reason being that cultivators tended to focus solely on either cultivating their qi, spirit, or physique.

Because they only sought one path, even if they started to practice the other two cultivation paths in the future, once they reached the Quasi-Emperor Stage, they would still come to a still at the first level and be unable to break through due to their insufficient great dao foundation.

For example, almost all the quasi-Emperors that Lin Xun had killed before, including Qu Rao and Kong Yin from the Imperial Kong Clan, or the six quasi-Emperors from the Helian Clan, were at the first level of the Quasi-Emperor Stage.

Similarly, among the five Xuanji Dao Sect quasi-Emperors who Lin Xun fought against previously, only Hong Yu was at the second level of the Quasi-Emperor Stage. The rest were at the first level.

And according to Hong Yu, their sect leader Heng Xiao was the only one who had reached the perfect third level Quasi-Emperor Stage in the entire Xuanji Dao Sect.

Presently, Lin Xun only knew that the three levels of the Quasi-Emperor Stage were increasingly difficult. This lay with the fact that it was exceptionally difficult to condense Dao Divine Flames.

Many old monsters struggled to condense their second Dao Divine Flame despite living for countless years, which led to their cultivation becoming stagnant and they were unable to progress any further!

In addition, the Quasi-Emperor Stage was also divided into supreme and non-supreme.

The difference between a supreme quasi-Emperor and an ordinary quasi-Emperor was similar to the difference between a supreme Saint-King and an ordinary Saint-King—There was a world of difference.

However, according to Hong Yu and the others, there were many supreme characters in the world, so it was not uncommon to see supreme Saints, but supreme quasi-Emperors were extremely rare.

The reason being that to break through the Saint Stage, one had to overcome an extremely terrifying tribulation. Especially for supreme Saint-Kings. If they forcefully tried to ascend the dao and step into the Supreme Quasi-Emperor Stage, their chance of success was close to zero!

“Those who can break through into the Supreme Quasi-Emperor Stage are one in a million!”

This was the consensus of the entire Ancient Nebula Road.

After learning this, Lin Xun realized that although he possessed strength to kill quasi-Emperors, who were an entire cultivation stage higher than him, if he encountered supreme quasi-Emperors, who were rare and terrifying beings, it would definitely bode ill rather than well for him!

“Supreme quasi-Emperors are one in a million...I wonder what kind of tribulation I will face when I try to break through the Saint Stage and into the Quasi-Emperor Stage...”

Lin Xun trembled with fear at the thought of it. The Supreme Path was always full of extreme dangers and taboos, and also frighteningly unpredictable.

That day on, he went into closed-door cultivation once again.

In terms of cultivation, he was already at the advanced Supreme Saint-King Stage, and it was impossible for him to make another breakthrough any time soon.

Thus, his focus now was to temper his martial arts and comprehend the great dao.

……

On the third month of Lin Xun’s closed-door cultivation.

Inside the grotto, Lin Xun was glowing brightly with waves of light flowing around him. The dao palace of the lungs was roaring rhythmically as if filled with astonishing vitality.

Soon, following an explosion that sounded like heaven splitting from earth, a pillar of blinding white light burst forth from the platform above Lin Xun’s head.

It was as splendid and dazzling as the sun and as sharp as a dagger!

Gradually, the beam of white light condensed and took the shape of a white-clad figure. It radiated a threatening and domineering aura, like an unrivaled divine sword descending from the sky. Its shining sharpness illuminated all nine heavens!

White Metal Dao Body!

Metal, one of the five elements, was the source of lethality, the sharpness of all things, the power of ruthless killing, and the essence of dao qi in the complete void.

The figure was a manifestation of the great dao that was formed from a white metal spirit embryo. Its aura was exceptionally sharp, fierce and overbearing, and it had an invincible and indestructible demeanor.

This was also the fifth great dao manifestation that Lin Xun had created!

The five spirit embryos had all condensed into their respective great dao bodies, thereby Lin Xun’s mastery of the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic reached the perfect level of the Five Flavors Stage.

It should be mentioned that the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic was divided into four major stages, namely the Five Aggregate, Five Colors, Five Flavors, and Five Virtues.

The Five Aggregates signified aggregating true spirit energy from the five viscera.

The Five Colors was to condense the true spirit energy into Five Viscera Spirit Embryo.

The Five Flavors Stage was to cultivate the Five Viscera Spirit Embryo into the dao bodies of the five elements. This was the stage that Lin Xun was currently in.

The next stage was the Five Virtues Stage, where the five great dao manifestations would each possess their own spirit sense and cultivation, which would be as strong as that of the original cultivator!

However, the Five Virtues Stage was extremely obscure and profound, involving the mystery of differentiating between cultivation and spirit sense. Given Lin Xun’s current cultivation level, he was not ready to comprehend and control it yet.

He speculated that only when he had reached the Quasi-Emperor Stage would he have built the foundation needed to comprehend the mysteries of the Five Virtues Stage.

Boom!

As Lin Xun instilled his energy, qi and spirit into the White Metal Dao Body, countless wonderful insights flooded his mind like a tide.

After meditating silently for a long while, the white-robed Lin Xun had a sudden thought, and the qi around him began to roar. Faintly, countless wisps of sharp white metal qi shot out from the pores around his body like billions of blades rushing out at the same time, releasing terrifying rays of light.

The nearby void exploded and tore apart.

From afar, Lin Xun was like a heavenly sword descending upon the world, threatening to slash the sky, the earth, and everything with its unrivaled sharpness!

“Condense!”

With a raise of his hand, the billions of misty white metal qi gathered towards his palm before merging into a streak of light.

That blindingly bright streak of light was so condensed and sharp that it seemed capable of tearing apart a person’s soul.

The entire grotto was instantly plunged into a terrifying and austere atmosphere!

But in the end, the dazzling and powerful light gradually faded in his palm.

Even so, he struggled to remain calm.

This magical ability was called the Thorn of Sharpness! It was the innate power of the White Metal Dao Body. The power of the thorn would startle heaven and earth and make ghosts and gods weep!

Lin Xun reckoned that even first level quasi-Emperors would fail to evade the attack of the Thorn of Sharpness

The thorn was too fast, sharp, fierce and domineering. After all, it was the accumulation of the power of the White Metal Dao Body. The sudden unleash of its power in the form of a thorn was no doubt terrifying.

“The Green Wood Dao Body wields the power of life and death, the Yellow Earth Dao Body controls the Seal of All Beings, the Black Water Dao Body possesses the power of Three Thousand Streams, the Red Fire Dao Body controls the Eyes ofSmouldering Flames...

“And the White Metal Dao Body controls the Thorn of Sharpness! Its innate power is undoubtedly the most lethal among the five dao bodies.”

Lin Xun silently comprehended the wonders of the White Metal Dao Body and was repeatedly amazed.

Five great dao bodies, five kinds of incredible innate ability, five completely different powers; this scripture was undeniably glorious and world-shattering.

It further demonstrated what amazing achievements his ninth senior brother Ge Yupu had on the path of the great dao.
