Chapter 55 Breakthrough to Celestial Master

In a barren mountain.

Shi Jian sat cross-legged on a huge rock.

A surge of pure energy emanated from his body, rising and gathering three feet above his head, resembling a billowing cloud.

This is a sign that the magical power has reached a certain level and is overflowing.

At this moment, Shi Jian, who was no longer suppressing the magic power in his body, suddenly felt his consciousness go blank, and his magic power surged out like a raging torrent bursting through the dam.

Boom!

A muffled thud, like a thunderclap, exploded inside his body.

The various Taoist principles he had comprehended appeared before his eyes one by one. The Taoist scriptures flickered, and the Taoist methods became clear, all of which transformed into a gentle stream that flowed into his mind and spirit.

This is an embodiment of enlightenment.

He memorized all the classic texts of the Maoshan School and integrated them to gain entirely new insights.

In the process of enlightenment, one follows the natural way, and supernatural powers arise spontaneously.

Pa~~

An arc of electricity flashed and circled around his body.

More and more electric arcs intertwined, enveloping his entire body.

It was as if a thunder god had descended to earth, captivating and awe-inspiring.

In just a moment, his cultivation level surged, and his magical power flowed like a flood bursting its banks, permeating his entire body.

They received another baptism, their physical bodies radiant, shining like finely carved jade.

This is a strange phenomenon formed when one's cultivation breaks through, thereby condensing a physical body and drawing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which then integrates into the body.

His cultivation level broke through from Earth Master to Celestial Master in an instant.

He ascended to the top in one fell swoop and became a generation of celestial masters.

Moreover, his cultivation level was still skyrocketing, and the moment he comprehended various Daoist techniques, Su Ming's true soul was undergoing a transformation.

It is a wondrous transformation of the soul toward the primordial spirit.

This is a manifestation of how he condensed his own primordial spirit using Shi Jian's body.

Boom~~

Dark clouds rolled in from the sky.

There was lightning and thunder, and heavy rain poured down.

But the raindrops that fell on me were blocked by a thin veil of light.

As he broke through, lightning struck down from the sky, hitting him squarely.

A thunderclap boomed, and Shi Jian was surrounded by a dense array of lightning.

This is a manifestation of cultivating the Five Thunder Orthodox Method.

Just then, a thunderstorm suddenly broke out, and the lightning and thunder made it the perfect time to practice the Five Thunder Orthodox Method.

He drew down bolts of lightning into his body, making it appear as if he were struck by lightning, but in reality, he absorbed and refined the lightning he drew down into his own magical power.

The magic power within his body gradually took on a layer of thunderous aura, with wisps of lightning flashing and bursts of thunder emanating from within.

"Thunder God and Lightning Goddess, quickly unleash your divine powers!"

"Five Thunder Gods, heed my command!"

"As the law commands, grant amnesty!"

Shi Jian formed the Thunder Seal with both hands, activated the Five Thunder Orthodox Method, and thunderbolts fell from the sky.

Thunderclap!

A bolt of lightning struck him, illuminating the mountains and forests.

Countless bolts of lightning enveloped his body, and before it was over, several more thunderbolts struck from the sky.

A dense barrage of lightning covered the hilltop.

The entire hill was cleaved away by lightning.

Amidst the lightning, a figure floated in mid-air, sitting cross-legged, with dense lightning power surging from his body, like lightning snakes intertwining and coiling back and forth.

"Refining Emptiness and Uniting with the Dao, Break!"

A cold shout rang out, and thunder exploded all around.

Shi Jian slowly opened his eyes, and two bolts of lightning suddenly appeared.

The countless bolts of lightning that swirled around him intertwined and disappeared into his mouth.

Within the body, the five elements surged, and lightning converged into the five internal organs, condensing the five elements in the chest. A faint lightning bolt appeared in the chest and among the five internal organs.

His physical body was strengthened once again, and his primordial spirit was further refined and solidified after being baptized by heavenly lightning.

With a flick of his palm, lightning flashed, condensing into a lightning talisman that exuded a terrifying aura of destruction.

"The Five Thunder Orthodox Method has been successfully cultivated."

Shi Jian was overjoyed. He had mastered the Five Thunder Orthodox Method by using the Lightning Thunder Fist, and now he could control thunder with ease.

Generally speaking, cultivating the Five Thunder Technique requires the use of incantations, but now he no longer needs incantations; his own strength is sufficient to control thunder.

He has now broken through the Refinement of Emptiness and Integration of Dao, becoming a true Celestial Master.

Moreover, he is a top-tier celestial master with unfathomable cultivation, just one step away from guiding others to immortality.

The cultivation of Tao is divided into four levels: refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into Tao. These correspond to the stages of Taoist novices, human teachers, earth teachers, and heavenly teachers, respectively. In the end, one needs to be guided to become an immortal.

All I need to do is make another breakthrough, and then I can ascend to the ranks of the immortals.

Of course, if you have connections, ascension is much easier; otherwise, you can only rely on your powerful cultivation to break through the barrier and ascend.

Currently, apart from the sect leader, the Purple-Robed Celestial Master, all the other members of Maoshan, including the elders, are at the level of Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness, belonging to the Earth Master category.

Now, Shi Jian has broken through his cultivation realm and entered the stage of Refining Emptiness and Harmonizing with the Dao, becoming the new generation of Celestial Master of Maoshan.

In terms of cultivation, Shi Jian is now stronger than his master, the Purple-Robed Celestial Master; at least he feels he could easily defeat him with one hand.

The premise is that the patriarch is not invited to descend to earth.

With such unparalleled mastery of the Celestial Master, one can roam freely throughout the world.

He only had a peach wood sword on him, which was a mid-grade magic weapon.

Shi Jian inspected the place and was speechless. Wasn't Shi Jian a little too poor?

Aside from the black and white robe he wore, he carried only a peach wood sword.

"Let's keep the peach wood sword as it is. Let's refine it again."

Shi Jian took out the peach wood sword and began to refine it.

First, with the aid of nanobots, he extracted a large amount of metal and incorporated it into the peach wood sword, outlining a series of talismanic marks.

Then, it was infused with the power of thunder, condensing into a magical artifact containing thunder.

Through repeated refinement, he finally condensed the peach wood sword into a top-grade magical artifact.

It's incredibly effective against demons.

Moreover, he already possesses a powerful physical body and formidable magical power, so he doesn't need many magical artifacts.

All that's needed is a peach wood sword, and the black and white robes he's wearing have been reforged, having just undergone a guided lightning baptism.

Now, after being refined, it has become a very good mid-grade magic weapon.

With its automatic dust removal and isolation function, its defensive capabilities are naturally quite strong.

"That's about enough. It's time to travel the world, slay demons and monsters, and return directly after completing my guest mission."

Su Ming made a decision.

This time he didn't plan to stay too long; he would go back as soon as he completed the mission.

After all, keeping them around is risky; they can just finish their cameo role and run away.

Now it's time to complete the mission, travel the world, slay demons and monsters, and become the revered Grand Celestial Master of Maoshan.

To be admired by thousands, you must first make a name for yourself.

Boom!

At that moment, lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, and torrential rain poured down.

Shi Jian discerned his location, then leaped into the air and vanished into the forest like a bolt of lightning.

This is a method that the Celestial Master comprehended after breaking through the Five Thunder Orthodox Method of cultivation.

Using the power of thunder, he commanded lightning to travel.

"what?"

Just then, as if sensing something.

Shi Jian leaped and landed on a large tree, where he found that the rain had stopped.

Thunderclap!

A bolt of lightning struck down ahead.

"The air is thick with the aura of death; have some fully-fledged zombies appeared?"

Shi Jian's expression turned grim as he immediately sensed a powerful aura of death ahead.

Whoosh!

Without hesitation, he transformed into a bolt of lightning and rushed towards the location of the corpse energy ahead.

Not only was there the aura of corpses, but also the aura of several fellow practitioners.

Moreover, it carries the aura of someone from the Maoshan sect.
