Chapter 798: Chapter 59 Ten Flower Realm?_2

The Human Race’s cultivation system is centered around cultivation itself.

Everything the Human Race has is cultivated by their own efforts, not a gift from the heavens.

It’s what’s meant by “Emperors and generals are not born into their roles; everyone has the hope of becoming powerful,” not limited by bloodlines.

As a result of this cultivation system, the lower limit of the Human Race’s own strength is very low compared to the Demon Race.

A Demonic Cultivator born with a Third Grade Demon Race bloodline, simply by growing naturally, will possess Third Grade strength upon reaching adulthood.

Whereas a member of the Human Race, if they do not cultivate, will remain a mortal for their entire life.

But there’s a flip side.

Compared to the Demon Race, the upper limit of the Human Race is unrestricted.

That same Third Grade Demonic Cultivator, if they want to advance to Fourth Grade, will find it difficult to break through due to the shackles of their own bloodline.

But even the most ordinary mortal has the potential to become an Ancestral Taoist.

This is the Human Race’s belief: they do not ask favors of spirits or deities, nor kneel to emperors, they only believe in themselves.

It’s not easy to judge which is stronger or weaker between the two cultivation systems of the Human and Demon Races.

But this doesn’t mean that the Human Race is not subject to limitations of bloodline.

Rather, the limitations of the Human Race’s bloodline do not manifest in the increase of strength or advancement of realms, but in a latent aspect–it restricts the ultimate strength a cultivator can achieve within each realm.

For instance, why can a Void Refining Cultivator only cultivate up to the Ninth Flowers Realm, unable to accumulate more strength and must break through to Divinity Transformation to further increase their strength?

And why can the Primordial Spirit Realm of a Void Refining Cultivator only reach the late stage of the Control Realm?

Without a breakthrough to Divinity Transformation, it’s impossible to break through the Soul Realm.

This is the hidden restriction within the Human Race’s bloodline.

The bloodline evolution brought about by the Blood Spirit Crystal provided Lu Qingshan with the benefit of possibly lifting the bloodline restrictions and breaking through the limits of realm strength.

Put simply…

It allows him the chance to break through to the Soul Realm while still in the Void Refinement Realm.

Even, to potentially open up the unprecedented and historically non-existent Tenth Flower of the Void Refinement Realm!

….

Lu Qingshan attentively felt the changes brought by the Blood Spirit Crystal.

The bottleneck and limitations of the Ninth Flowers Realm are already being shaken, but not yet broken.

“The power of a single Blood Spirit Crystal isn’t enough to completely lift this limitation, more Blood Spirit Crystals are needed,” Lu Qingshan thought to himself.

The Ninth Flowers Realm is already an incredibly powerful, legendary existence among the Human Race, granting Lu Qingshan mana comparable to a Low-Ranking Demon General.

The Ten Flower Realm, however, is something unheard of.

The Void Refinement Realm is the beginning of the Great Dao, a realm for accumulating strength.

If he can open up the Tenth Flower, what kind of strength would he possess after blasting open the Ten Flowers Divine Gate and breaking through Divinity Transformation?

Not to mention the future, just now, with him at the Ninth Flowers Realm, he’s already capable of contending with Low-Ranking Demon Generals; once he truly enters the Ten Flower Realm, wouldn’t he have the combat power to dominate Low-Ranking Demon Generals while still in the Void Refinement Realm?

Lu Qingshan’s eyes shone brightly.

He had never expected to encounter such an enormous opportunity in the Abyss!

Blood Spirit Crystal!

An infinite craving for the Blood Spirit Crystal surged in Lu Qingshan’s heart.

To achieve the breakthrough of the Ten Flower Realm, he needed more Blood Spirit Crystals!

“Acquiring Blood Spirit Crystals is no easy task. Even Qing Ge cannot easily obtain one, and can only earn battle merits on the battlefield beyond the domains,” Lu Qingshan’s eyes flickered as he fell into thought.

The Shi Wu Demon Venerable could offer him a Blood Spirit Crystal as a meeting gift because he was not long for this world and could thus overlook the opinions of his Ninth Grade Demonic Cultivator subordinates.

But that was just one crystal.

“If the Shi Wu Demon Venerable could give me a Blood Spirit Crystal, wouldn’t Ying Mingyue, his beloved daughter, not be given several?” Lu Qingshan murmured.

He was certain that Ying Mingyue definitely had Blood Spirit Crystals.

And not just one.

It indeed might not be very likely to get more Blood Spirit Crystals directly from the Shi Wu Demon Venerable.

But attempting to get Blood Spirit Crystals from the hands of Ying Mingyue, though not simple, was not entirely without possibilities.

Moreover, much of the information he wanted to know about the Demonic Sword should also be obtainable from Ying Mingyue.

After all, her father, the Shi Wu Demon Venerable, was the Demon Lord of the Jian Luo Lineage.

Ying Mingyue suddenly became a key person.

Just how to go about it still required careful planning.

“I’m not good at dealing with women…” Lu Qingshan felt somewhat vexed.

………

……

The second day after arriving at Jian Luo King City.

“Lord Qing Ge, there is a visitor,” came the aged voice of the Zhi Pan butler from outside the room.

“A visitor? I’ve just arrived and am unfamiliar with the place; who would be visiting me?” Lu Qingshan asked as he opened the door.

The old butler hesitated, “It’s Ying Jun, the second son of the Hong Lie Demon Lord, and people from the Tian Yi Demon Lord’s faction…”

Hong Lie Demon Lord?

Lu Qingshan frowned; a name emerged in his mind.

Ying Lie.

That was the original name of the Hong Lie Demon Lord, the eldest son of the Shi Wu Demon Venerable–in other words, Ying Mingyue’s brother.

As for the Tian Yi Demon Lord, his status was not so esteemed; he was just one of the many Demon Lords under the Shi Wu Demon Venerable.

“If they come, they’re up to no good; if they meant well, they wouldn’t come,” Lu Qingshan’s gaze was deep as he muttered to himself.

“Do you wish to see them, Lord Qing Ge?” the Zhi Pan butler asked cautiously.

“See them? Of course. Let’s go, Butler Zhi,” Lu Qingshan said with a smile.

Watching Lu Qingshan’s calm facade, Butler Zhi Pan silently nodded, a hint of worry passing through his cloudy old eyes.

Hong Lie Demon Lord had always disliked Ying Mingyue, while Qing Ge was her future intended.
