Chapter 6:

In a short amount of time, Qin Chen had leapt from level one of the Yiyuan Realm to level eight, and finally reached the peak of Yiyuan – level nine.
Next, was the Liangyi Realm.
If word of his progression got out, it would definitely shock the world.
In just a month, Qin Chen had gone from mortal to the peak of Yiyuan Realm. Such cultivation speed was rare.
But it was actually expected for Qin Chen, as long as he had sufficient spirit stones. This was because he had the Divine Spirit Source, lots of exotic spirit stones, and the strongest physique – Chaotic Holy Body, paired with the Chaotic Imperial Sutra.
After all, people with that kind of physique could break all sorts of ancient cultivation records, if they wanted to.
And at the early stage, one could break through those cultivation realms by spirit stones alone.
Of course, Qin Chen did not disclose any of that. He knew very well that people would leave an ordinary man alone, but target one who held anything of value.
As soon as other people found out that he had become a peak Yiyuan Realm cultivator, moreover with the Chaotic Holy Body, and had even mastered the Chaotic Imperial Sutra, countless forces would be fighting over him. Even the elderly might be tempted to leap up from their deathbeds to take over his body, just to obtain that Chaotic Holy Body. He had to be cautious.
Fortunately, the system was able to hide his aura. Even when the Holy Lord, elders and other important figures occasionally passed by him, they had not noticed the changes in Qin Chen.
One should note that even though Taiyi Holy Land had declined, its elders were still great cultivators of the Sixiang and Wuxing Realms. The Holy Lord was even a super expert of the Liuhe Realm, far stronger than Qin Chen currently.
Since even they had not discovered anything, Qin Chen felt a lot more at ease.
One day, Qin Chen went to an elder's mountain to clean. He sensed divinity there and decided to check in.
[Congratulations, you have obtained the heaven-grade beginner supernormal knowledge, Heaven Shaking Hand.]
"A heaven-grade beginner supernormal knowledge!" Qin Chen was pleasantly surprised. As cultivation techniques existed in that world, naturally, supernormal knowledge spells existed too. They were divided into heaven, earth, black and yellow grades, with heaven being the highest and yellow the lowest. Those were then further divided into three stages – beginner, intermediate and advanced.
The higher the level of supernormal knowledge, the greater one could exhibit his powers.
He had obtained the supernormal knowledge Heaven Shaking Hand, and it was even a heaven-grade beginner supernormal knowledge. One could imagine how powerful it was.
In the whole of Taiyi Holy Land, there were only a few heaven-grade supernormal knowledges.
When he arrived back, Qin Chen started cultivating Heaven Shaking Hand immediately, as expected.
As a heaven-grade beginner supernormal knowledge, Heaven Shaking Hand was truly infinitely mysterious.
Even with his Chaotic Holy Body and superb talent, it took Qin Chen half a month to barely grasp the basics of Heaven Shaking Hand.
If it were anyone else from the Liangyi or even Sancai Realm, not to mention the Yiyuan Realm, they would not have successfully cultivated it.
That was the amazing thing about the Chaotic Holy Body.
BOOM!
With a thunderous sound, Qin Chen unleashed Heaven Shaking Hand in an empty valley, slapping a cliff beside him. The frightening power generated punched a large cave right into the cliff, which showed his amazing strength.
However, it also exhausted almost all of Qin Chen's divine power.
Because the consumption for that sort of heaven-grade supernormal knowledge was simply massive.
Qin Chen took in the scene before him, as he gasped for breath. He was very satisfied with the power of Heaven Shaking Hand. When used with his peak Yiyuan Realm cultivation, he could kill normal Liangyi Realm cultivators, and even pose a threat to powerful cultivators of the Sancai Realm.
He had essentially earned a life-saving trump card.
For the rest of the time, Qin Chen kept checking in at various places within Taiyi Holy Land.
Due to his rudimentary cultivation, he could only check in at nearby places. Those places were neither important or forbidden, so the rewards were not particularly good either. But he was able to obtain lots of spirit stones, exotic spirit stones, precious medicines, secret techniques, and so on. His harvest was plentiful.

Time passed quietly. Without realizing it, two years had passed since Qin Chen's first check-in.
He was now an 18-year-old youth. He was tall and handsome. His eyes shone brightly like the stars, and his nose bridge was high and sharp. In addition, his Chaotic Holy Body was in harmony with heaven and earth. He had an exceptional disposition, just like an ancient great emperor in his youth.
Of course, when facing the outside world, Qin Chen always hid his true appearance and cultivation.
In the past two years, after consuming the Divine Spirit Source and enough spirit stones to fill an ocean, he had reached the peak of the Sancai Realm.
In an immortal holy land at its peak, not to mention a declining land like Taiyi Holy Land, a Sancai Realm cultivator would already be considered a core disciple.
In general, even if a person was recruited into a holy land to cultivate from young, he or she would only be able to enter the Sancai Realm after the age of 20.
However, Qin Chen was only 18. It had taken him just two years to reach the peak of Sancai Realm. He was definitely a rare animal.
Next, was the Sixiang Realm.
After entering the Sixiang Realm, a person's physical fitness would be upgraded to the next level. In a declining holy land like Taiyi Holy Land, that person would already be qualified to take on the position of ordinary elder.
"After two years of cultivation, I've finally reached the peak of Sancai Realm. I can definitely be called a core disciple in Taiyi Holy Land now. If the holy land finds out, I'm afraid many supreme elders and even the Holy Lord himself might take me in as a direct disciple," Qin Chen muttered to himself. Having cultivated until the peak of the Sancai Realm, he had an exceptional disposition and natural charm.
But his ambition did not end there.
Now that he had accumulated enough, he could enter the Sixiang Realm immediately.
Once he entered the realm, the Chaotic Holy Body – the number one physique in the universe – would show its true, heaven-defying nature for the first time.
However, it was the Dharma-ending Age and cultivation was difficult. As soon as someone broke through the Liuhe Realm, heaven and earth would be triggered, and heavenly tribulations would descend upon the world.
Even more so for Qin Chen, who had the Chaotic Holy Body. He was a rare animal. If he broke through the Sixiang Realm, the appearance of terrifying heavenly tribulations was inevitable.
Qin Chen had long accumulated enough at the Sancai Realm. He also had a large amount of exotic spirit stones, Divine Spirit Source, precious medicine and so on, which he was preparing to use to get through the tribulations.
Of course, he could not break through in Taiyi Holy Land. Otherwise, he would attract great attention.
Qin Chen quietly left Taiyi Holy Land. It had declined after all, so the cultivators guarding the gate were not very strong. They were only in the Liangyi Realm. With the Chaotic Holy Body's ability to cross boundaries and battle immortals, the guards did not even notice his departure.
When he was sufficiently far from Taiyi Holy Land, he started to shed his disguise. He was as handsome as jade. And as he stepped into the air, he looked like a rainbow across the sky.
In the Liangyi Realm, one could start walking in the air. In the Sancai Realm, you could walk more freely and relaxed, just like how mortals saw immortals, flying through clouds and mist with ease.
Qin Chen was 100,000 miles away from Taiyi Holy Land. He chose a wilderness far from human habitation to undergo his tribulation.
BOOM! BOOM!
Qin Chen began to break through, and step into the Sixiang Realm.
Terrifying heavenly tribulations descended from the sky. One after another, the heavenly tribulations spoken about in legends descended, bombarding Qin Chen.
Qin Chen had the strength of the Chaotic Holy Body. His physique was peerless among those in the same realm. It was even comparable to that of an Wuxing Realm grandmaster. Yet, his skin and flesh split open until his bones became visible, and torrents of golden blood shot into the sky.
However, Qin Chen was prepared. He unleashed Heaven Shaking Hand, Chaotic Vitality Heavenly Dipper, and other incredible supernormal knowledges he had obtained from checking in, all to protect himself against the heavenly tribulations.

Loads and loads of spirit stones gushed out from the system space. He devoured every one of them, converted them into a massive amount of energy, and absorbed the energy into his body for recovery.
Following that, was all kinds of valuable exotic spirit stones.
Finally, the Divine Spirit Source appeared.
After a long time, the ten-sided mountain range below had been bombarded by the terrifying heavenly tribulations into a scorched wasteland. Then, the heavenly tribulations finally dispersed.
Qin Chen was covered in blood. He did not know how many bones and tendons he had broken. He had finally successfully undergone the tribulations, and become a powerful cultivator of the Sixiang Realm.
Chapter 7:
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In Taiyi Holy Land, cultivators in the Sixiang Realm were already considered the top few masters. They could split mountains and cleave stones, engage wild beasts in close combat, and were qualified to take on elder positions.
Many core disciples never even reached that level.
Qin Chen took out a bottle of precious pills from the system space and swallowed them. Immediately, visible to the naked eye, his injuries started to heal rapidly until he was back to his peak.
The movement of energy had shaken the surrounding areas, causing many strong wild beasts in the desolate mountains to submit to its power.
After feeling the power of the force, Qin Chen was quite satisfied.
After two years of cultivation, he had finally entered the Sixiang Realm. From that moment on, he could be considered an expert.
In Taiyi Holy Land, besides the elders, not many disciples had reached the Sixiang Realm.
Even in an immortal divine dynasty like the Great Qin Dynasty, very few princes and princesses could reach the Sixiang Realm before the age of 20. All who did were given special attention, richly nurtured and regarded as strong contenders for Imperial Lord in the future.
In other words, Qin Chen, the forsaken prince banished from the imperial family, had already surpassed many princes and princesses of the Great Qin Dynasty.
Of course, Qin Chen was aware of the dangers of the world. Sixiang Realm cultivators were considered experts in the mortal world, even in some small sects. But compared to immortal heritages like ancient families, immortal holy lands and ancient dynasties, they were still considered weak.
Those kinds of immortal heritages had Liuhe Realm great grandmasters, and even Qiyao Realm peerless kings.
When Qin Chen returned to Taiyi Holy Land, he continued to keep everything under wraps.
After two years, he felt that it was about time, so he headed to Taiyi Main Hall again.
Suddenly, as he was preparing to check in, an extremely beautiful woman appeared. She had silky smooth skin and unrivaled beauty. There was a unique coldness about her, and she exuded a powerful aura. She was already at level nine of Sancai.
It was Ling Ran from before. She had long become the Holy Daughter of Taiyi Holy Land.
A handsome young man walked out alongside her. He was Zhao Yi, the Holy Son of Taiyi Holy Land. He was also at level nine of Sancai.
As the incumbent Holy Son and Daughter of Taiyi Holy Land, they had been richly nurtured by the entire holy land. Therefore, it made sense for them to have reached the peak of the Sancai Realm when they were still only Qin Chen's age.
When they appeared, Ling Ran glanced at Qin Chen, as if surprised that a handyman disciple would be there. On the other hand, Holy Son Zhao Yi completely ignored Qin Chen. He only smiled as he spoke with Ling Ran, and they left together.
After them, quite a number of official disciples walked out one after another. They looked at the well-matched Holy Son and Daughter with envy and said, "As expected of Taiyi Holy Land's Holy Son and Daughter. They've both reached level nine of Sancai. In the next two years, I believe they'll enter the Sixiang Realm, and be able to compete with the top talents of the Southern Desolate Lands."
"That's right. They've already reached level nine of Sancai at the age of 18. They are some of the top talents in history. Especially the Holy Daughter. She's already at the peak of Sancai, and will probably enter the Sixiang Realm in half a year."
"The Holy Daughter is extremely talented. It's said that she has the Zixia Body, which is almost as good as the legendary Innate Dao Fetus!"
"Back then, the Holy Lord paid a huge price to fight for the Holy Daughter to join Taiyi Holy Land!"
The group of official disciples left, having similarly ignored Qin Chen completely.
Qin Chen calmly watched them leave. Two years to reach level nine of Sancai. Such cultivation speed was considered very fast, comparable even to the major King Bodies of the world.
Of course, it was nothing compared to his. He had a check-in system, which allowed him to advance from mortal to Sixiang Realm monster in two years.
However, the fact that Ling Ran had the Zixia Body, was indeed unexpected.
The Zixia Body was a legendary King Body. It was comparable to the Divine Body, Underworld King Body, Sun Divine Body, as well as other King Bodies. Upon mastery of it, the cultivator would become a sovereign venerable.
Of course, it was still far inferior to his Chaotic Holy Body.
"System, I want to check in here!"
Qin Chen quietly uttered in his heart.
[Congratulations, you have successfully checked in. You have received the Human King Seal.]
Qin Chen was quite surprised. Over the past two years, he had checked in at Taiyi Main Hall no less than ten times. As time passed, the rewards from places he could repeatedly check in to got worse and worse. He did not expect to obtain a powerful supernormal knowledge like the Human King Seal this time.
That supernormal knowledge was a heaven-grade advanced supernormal knowledge.
After cultivating to the Sixiang Realm, Qin Chen's strength had increased greatly. It was easier for him to travel to other places within Taiyi Holy Land. 10,000 miles a day was no issue at all. As a result, he could check in to a lot more important places.
Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks
When he checked in in front of the Holy Lord's mountain, he had obtained Taiyi Holy Land's legendary supernormal knowledge, Taiyi Holy Technique.
When he checked in in front of the ancient herb garden, he obtained the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Precious Medicine.
When he checked in at the holy land's deepest ancestral land, Void Abyss, he obtained the Ancient Void Technique.
...
It was only then that Qin Chen realized, although Taiyi Holy Land appeared to be a declining immortal holy land, it still contained countless historical remains. Furthermore, many ancient great emperors had clearly left their marks there.
When he checked in to various places within Taiyi Holy Land, he had actually successively obtained several imperial technique supernormal knowledges which were higher than heaven-grade. They had all come from ancient great emperors, or primordial emperors.
Qin Chen suspected that Taiyi Holy Land had been an ancient great emperor's place of enlightenment in the primordial era. It was just that the long period of time had eroded everything away, causing most of the traces of the former great emperor to disappear. Taiyi Holy Land was extremely lucky to have been built on the remains of such a great emperor.
No wonder even the Chaotic Heavenly Emperor had set foot there.
Qin Chen checked in and obtained countless treasures without stopping. His cultivation also improved continuously by leaps and bounds. He kept leaving Taiyi Holy Land in search of the wilderness, in order to undergo tribulations and upgrade.
In the blink of an eye, eight years had passed.
It was Qin Chen's 10th year of checking in.
He was now a 26-year-old young man. During that period, he had kept a low profile and did not display the slightest bit of talent in cultivation. He only showed a passable level of martial arts cultivation, and continued to sweep all around the sect.
Of course, he would also take such opportunities to secretly check in at various important and forbidden places.
In the past few years, Qin Chen had actually witnessed many handyman disciples work hard to secretly watch and learn cultivation from the official disciples. They hoped to also one day step onto the path of cultivation. However, they had not succeeded.
Those who had been assessed and assigned to become handyman disciples had very ordinary talent, and very slim hopes.
On the other hand, Qin Chen was calm. If he had not received the system, he would definitely have hoped to become an official disciple. He might even have behaved like the other handyman disciples. After all, he had heard so many mysterious and wonderful things before transmigrating from earth. He had also hoped to cultivate to become an immortal.
But he was no longer the same person. After checking in for 10 years, he had entered the fifth realm, the Wuxing Realm.
That's right, the Wuxing Realm. He could now be called a grandmaster.
Any cultivator who had reached the Wuxing Realm could become a grandmaster. In an immortal holy land at its peak, ancient family or ancient dynasty, he would definitely qualify as an elder. It was a position everyone aimed for.
In those ten years, Qin Chen had obtained countless pills, precious medicine, spirit stones, supernormal knowledge, secret techniques, and so on. With his heaven-defying Chaotic Holy Body and the Chaotic Imperial Sutra, his cultivation had advanced at a tremendous pace. Liangyi in one month, Sancai in three years, Sixiang in four years, and Wuxing in six years.
Four years ago, he had reached the Wuxing Realm and become a grandmaster.
Today, he was now already at level nine of the Wuxing Realm. He was one of the top great cultivators in the entire Taiyi Holy Land. Only the Holy Lord who had entered the Liuhe Realm, as well as any old fogeys who might be hiding their abilities, could defeat him. No one else was his match.
Taiyi Holy Land was merely a declining holy land, after all. How many Liuhe Realm grandmasters could it possibly have? It was far inferior to ancient families, holy lands, ancient dynasties and other immortal forces that were currently at their peaks.
Moreover, the Chaotic Holy Body was undefeatable among others of the same level. It also had the power to slash immortals and cross many small realms to battle.
For example, at level one of the Wuxing Realm, Qin Chen could easily defeat those at levels seven, eight, and even nine of the Wuxing Realm.
That was the amazing thing about the Chaotic Holy Body.
Having cultivated until level nine of the Wuxing Realm, Qin Chen was confident of crushing a regular Liuhe Realm great grandmaster easily.
But even after reaching that level of cultivation, Qin Chen still had not exposed himself. He did not even have the slightest intention of doing that.
He knew how scary the cultivation world was. The so-called Wuxing Realm grandmasters might be the most invincible in the mortal world, or even in numerous small sects. However, they were far behind ancient families, holy lands, ancient dynasties and other immortal forces.
As the former 17th Prince of the Great Qin Dynasty, and his mother previously one of the most powerful figures around, Qin Chen knew a lot despite being a mortal.

Those immortal heritages were not like Taiyi Holy Land, where Wuxing Realm grandmasters could become supreme elders. Only Liuhe Realm great grandmasters qualified. Furthermore, their imperial lords, holy lords and family heads were all Qiyao Realm kings. Some were even Bahuang Realm venerables.
Within the insanely strong Canglan Continent, cultivators in the Wuxing Realm were merely considered small cultivators. So Qin Chen had to be careful.
Qin Chen was very steady and cautious. He thought that he should be careful even after reaching the Liuhe Realm.
That day, as Qin Chen was sweeping the floor, he saw many disciples flying across the sky like rainbows.
He heard the conversation among some of them as they passed by. "The Holy Son and Daughter have gone to the Demon Sealing Land to explore. Let's go take a look!"
Chapter 8:
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Oh my God, is that true? Someone is finally venturing into Demon Sealing Land after so many years!"
"Demon Sealing Land is the ultimate hurdle for all disciples in the holy land. It's said to be a cultivation trial ground left by a great venerable of Taiyi Holy Land in the ancient times. It contains that great venerable's opportunity!"
"I wonder if the Holy Son and Daughter can break through Demon Sealing Land?"
...
A large number of disciples rushed to Demon Sealing Land. Many elders followed behind.
When he heard that, Qin Chen's expression instantly changed.
He knew about Demon Sealing Land, of course. It was a cultivation trial ground belonging to Taiyi Holy Land.
It was rumored that in the ancient times, when Taiyi Holy Land was at its peak, there was a great venerable who was more powerful than anyone else in the entire Southern Desolate Lands.
That great venerable's cultivation was unparalleled. He had reached the legendary Bahuang Realm and was invincible.
When the great venerable was traversing the world, he once fought with a demonic venerable for hegemony. They engaged in an earth-shattering battle, until the blood shed was enough to cover 100,000 mountains and rivers.
After fighting for three days and three nights, the great venerable of Taiyi Holy Land eventually killed the demonic venerable and brought him back to Taiyi Holy Land. Using venerable techniques ahead of his generation, he created a cultivation trial ground in the holy land. That place was now Demon Sealing Land.
It was left specially for future generations of disciples, to venture in and gain experience.
Moreover, a colossal opportunity left by the great venerable was rumored to be sealed inside. There were even rumors that it was the great venerable's inheritance, as well as his weapon. But it could only be obtained by passing through Demon Sealing Land.
However, tens of thousands of years had passed, and no disciple of Taiyi Holy Land had managed to pass through Demon Sealing Land.
Because there was a restriction in place. Only disciples below 100 years old were allowed to enter. In addition, they needed to at least be at the Wuxing Realm to mount a real challenge.
That point alone had eliminated more than 90% of the people in Taiyi Holy Land. Only a few elders and the Holy Lord qualified.
However, the Holy Lord and elders were part of the older generation. They were not permitted to venture in. They could only enter if a disciple successfully passed through.
In recent years, no one had succeeded in breaking in. All the more because Taiyi Holy Land had already been in decline for many years.
As a result, Demon Sealing Land had been covered in dust for many years. As for the colossal opportunity left by the great venerable, Taiyi Holy Land was simply willing but unable to accept it.
Qin Chen also headed to Demon Sealing Land. When he arrived, fearsome sounds of battle reverberated from the abyss-like Demon Sealing Land. Occasionally, streams of rainbow lights shot into the sky. That was the power of the Wuxing Realm, tearing through the air. It was petrifying.
The large group of disciples did not dare to go close. Even some of the weaker elders did not dare to as well.
"They have already reached the second stage. As expected of the Holy Son and Daughter. They are indeed impressive. We wouldn't even be able to pass the first stage ourselves!"
"Each person is different, there's no point in comparing!"
"To be able to become the Holy Son and Daughter, of course they must be extraordinary!"
Qin Chen did not stand too close. But he had obtained the Martial Arts Heavenly Eye a few years ago, so he could view all the battles in Demon Sealing Land.
Holy Daughter Ling Ran and Holy Son Zhao Yi were being besieged by huge demonic shadows as they passed through. The demonic shadows had the combat strength of level one of Wuxing Realm. And there were more than ten of them, which was very shocking.
The two of them showed extraordinary cultivation. Those were definitely the abilities of cultivators at the Wuxing Realm.
Holy Son Zhao Yi was at level one of the Wuxing Realm. Holy Daughter Ling Ran was at level three of the Wuxing Realm, much stronger than Zhao Yi.
As Holy Daughter Ling Ran was more powerful, sword energy filled the sky whenever she performed her swordsmanship. She quickly destroyed and annihilated the demonic shadows.
Very quickly, the numerous demonic shadows in the second stage were completely eliminated. The two of them had passed the stage successfully.
In the third stage, 32 demonic shadows with the strength of level three of the Wuxing Realm appeared. They started attacking the two.
Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks
Soon, Holy Son Zhao Yi flew out. He was drenched in blood and looked extremely embarrassed.
His face was pale. If he had run a little slower, he might have died there.
Now only Holy Daughter Ling Ran, who was also at level three of the Wuxing Realm, was left trying to break through.
Holy Daughter Ling Ran was clearly stronger. After all, she had the legendary Zixia Body. Wisps of bright purple clouds surrounded her body, just like the Empress Ziwei, as she fought the numerous demonic shadows.
BOOM!
After a long time, with a thunderous sound, Ling Ran's figure soared into the sky from Demon Sealing Land. Her figure was still slender and beautiful, but there was a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.
She had failed to break through.
Many sighed in disappointment.
Several elders also sighed a little. In so many years, Ling Ran was the first holy land disciple to have gone that far. Unfortunately, her cultivation level was still not high enough.
From a distance, Qin Chen looked at Ling Ran in surprise too. She had actually made it to the fourth stage. She was indeed incredible.
The demonic shadows in the fourth stage had strength comparable to level five of the Wuxing Realm. They were much stronger, and there were 72 of them. Even with the legendary Zixia Body, Ling Ran was destined to fail.
However, just reaching that stage had proved how powerful Ling Ran was.
Even though the elders had sighed, they also praised Ling Ran, saying she would definitely be able to clear the Demon Sealing Land in less than 20 years.
No one noticed that Qin Chen had been looking at the Demon Sealing Land, deep in thought.
...
Late at night.
Qin Chen took the opportunity to go to Demon Sealing Land when no one was around.
A daunting abyss came into view. It was Demon Sealing Land.
Just then, Qin Chen leapt into it and hung in the air.
Immediately, endless amounts of demonic fog appeared in the abyss. Huge demonic shadows more than 100 feet tall emerged, one after another. They were ferocious, with a powerful aura, and charged towards Qin Chen at lightning speed.
The demonic shadows had all reached the Sixiang Realm. They were very powerful.
Qin Chen was aware of how the demonic shadows came about. Back then, the great venerable had fused the Demon King he had killed together with an array, creating the demonic shadows which were then used to train future generations.
His expression did not change. Incredibly powerful golden blood energy burst from his Chaotic Holy Body, pouring down like the Nine Heaven Divine Furnace. The massive amount of golden blood energy, with supreme tough and supreme yang characteristics, drowned everything in sight. It incinerated the demonic shadows one by one, annihilating them.
In the blink of an eye, he had passed the first stage!
It could not be helped. The blood energy of the Chaotic Holy Body was too strong. It was also supremely tough and supremely yang. The demonic shadows, on the other hand, were supremely yin and supremely evil. So they had been greatly restrained.
Getting rid of the first 12 demonic shadows was only the first stage.
There was a total of five stages in Demon Sealing Land. The first stage had 12 demonic shadows, second stage 24 demonic shadows, third stage 36 demonic shadows, fourth stage 72 demonic shadows, and fifth stage 108 demonic shadows.

Very quickly, 24 demonic shadows appeared. They were as powerful as those at level one of the Wuxing Realm.
The demonic shadows at each stage were more powerful than the last, and also greater in number.
That was why for many years, Taiyi Holy Land had never had a disciple make it through Demon Sealing Land.
Qin Chen continued to release blood energy that was as strong as the sun. The demonic shadows, comparable to level one of the Wuxing Realm, were easily defeated and killed.
They did not stand a chance. Not only was the blood energy of the Chaotic Holy Body extremely powerful, he was also a powerful cultivator of level nine of the Wuxing Realm.
Chapter 9:
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
He had passed two stages easily.
Not long after, 36 demonic shadows appeared. They were all comparable to level three of the Wuxing Realm, much more powerful than before.
Not many in Taiyi Holy Land could pass through the demonic shadows of the third stage.
Ling Ran was the only known disciple of the holy land who could pass through.
Even with Qin Chen's powerful golden blood energy, the demonic shadows could not be extinguished immediately. The demonic shadows roared and charged towards him. However, when their attacks landed on his body, there was merely a clanging sound. That was because his body was peerless. He had the Chaotic Holy Body and was unbelievably powerful.
Qin Chen only utilized his absolutely powerful Chaotic Holy Body. He could not even be bothered to use supernormal knowledge. Very quickly, each punch he threw blew up a demonic shadow at level three of the Wuxing Realm. They were turned into pitch-black demonic fog, then burned up by blood energy.
The third stage was still relatively easy for him, partly due to his innate restraint.
At the fourth stage, 72 powerful demonic shadows appeared. Demonic energy shot into the sky as they charged towards Qin Chen.
Those 72 demonic shadows had the frightening ability of level seven of the Wuxing Realm.
Even with Ling Ran's Zixia Body and ability to fight across realms, she stood no chance.
Qin Chen let out a loud roar, which reverberated through the entire abyss. He started operating the Chaotic Imperial Sutra. The five major realms – Yiyuan, Liangyi, Sancai, Sixiang and Wuxing – were all shining within his body. His powerful golden blood energy was radiating light, as his five internal organs chanted the sutra. It looked like his limbs were going to transform into four Heavenly Divine Pillars, and his spine to a Nine Heaven Divine Dragon.
He was clearly at level nine of the Wuxing Realm, but Qin Chen's Chaotic Holy Body exuded an aura far beyond that. His might was not the slightest bit inferior to that of a Liuhe Realm great grandmaster.
In particular, the Chaotic Holy Body was supremely tough and supremely yang, which restrained demons.
Like a heavenly dragon, he bombarded a punch, instantly blowing up a demonic shadow.
The demonic shadow was just a product of an array, after all. It was not a real expert at level seven of the Wuxing Realm. The difference was significant.
Then, Qin Chen threw a second punch, third punch, one punch after another. Each punch seemed like a meteorite falling to the ground, containing unimaginable power. They annihilated each and every demonic shadow and turned them into ashes.
In the end, all 72 demonic shadows were killed.
He had successfully passed the fourth stage!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the last stage, 108 demonic shadows appeared. They were all comparable to level nine of the Wuxing Realm.
Even a Liuhe Realm great grandmaster might not be able to pass through 108 demonic shadows at level nine of the Wuxing Realm.
Qin Chen strode over. His Chaotic Holy Body was unparalleled. He unleashed blood energy from every area of his body and attacked with all his might.
It was the first time he was fighting at full strength since obtaining the system.
With the Chaotic Holy Body's formidable offensive powers, he was already on par with a great grandmaster of the Liuhe Realm.
He employed all kinds of supernormal knowledge he had obtained from checking in to fight the 108 level nine Wuxing demonic shadows. For example, the Taiyi Holy Technique, Ancient Void Technique, Human King Seal, and so on.
In the process, fresh golden blood splashed out. But he recovered quickly. Besides, the demonic shadows did not really exist, so they could not withstand as much as a true level nine Wuxing.
In the end, all 108 demonic shadows were slaughtered.
Within the abyss, the demonic energy had been completely eradicated, leaving only Qin Chen. He stood upright like a god, and descended into the deepest part of the abyss.
Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks
The bottom of the pitch-black abyss was a big land covered in demonic blood. A hill stood there in desolate silence.
A large halberd had been left on the hill.
The halberd pierced the ground. After tens of thousands of years, there was no sign of decay, and it still contained some kind of immortal divinity. It looked like an invincible divine weapon.
As soon as Qin Chen arrived, a majestic figure appeared on the hill. An aura as grand and majestic as the ocean instantly filled the air, causing the air to tremble. It caused him to become breathless, as if he was being pinned down by a mountain.
He was getting prepared to face a great enemy, but soon realized that it was not a real person. It was an impression.
Qin Chen had seen portraits of great Taiyi Holy Lords throughout history in the Sutra Depository. He quickly recognized the figure. Wasn't that the great venerable of the holy land who had ruled over the Southern Desolate Lands in the past?
"Congratulations, you have passed my test. Your ability to pass the test of Demon Sealing Land before 100 years old proves your immense talent. In future, you will be carrying out the important tasks of Taiyi Holy Land. I hope that when that day comes, you will live up to the holy land's high hopes for you. You will help the holy land defeat all evil and lead it to greater heights!"
"This is the weapon I used to conquer the world in the past. I hope that in your hands, they will one day be able to completely regain their former glory!"
The great venerable's impression looked at him and said.
Qin Chen looked at the figure solemnly. He knew that the impression could not see him, but replied with sincerity, "Senior, I am just a sweeper handyman. I cannot guarantee that I'll be able to lead Taiyi Holy Land to the top. But I guarantee that as long as I am alive, I will do everything I can to protect it. I will not let it be destroyed!"
As if he had heard Qin Chen, the impression left by the great venerable smiled, and then dissipated.
Qin Chen went to the top of the hill, grabbed the large halberd, and pulled it out with great strength. He could feel the heaviness of the halberd. Even with his current power, he could feel his arm being weighed down.
He was now so powerful that he could lift mountains and rivers, and throw mountains aside with ease. Yet, he felt that the halberd was heavy. So the halberd was really no less heavy than a mountain.
However, it was a pleasant surprise for Qin Chen. He could sense that the halberd was an invincible divine weapon. A simple wave of it and the void trembled. So one could imagine how formidable it was. It was definitely not an ordinary weapon.
All of a sudden, the divine power in his body started involuntarily pouring into the large halberd.
BOOM!
The halberd suddenly glowed with limitless light. It pierced through the abyss and appeared in the outside world, shocking the entire Taiyi Holy Land.
"This is bad!"
"I only entered Demon Sealing Land to test how strong I was. I didn't expect to accidentally awaken a divine weapon and cause such a commotion!"
Qin Chen's face changed. He immediately stowed the halberd in the system space and soared into the sky. With unsurpassable speed, he disappeared like lightning.
Not long after, Taiyi Holy Land's Holy Lord and many supreme elders appeared above Demon Sealing Land. They were shocked to find a residual powerful aura, which Qin Chen had left after breaking through.
"Let's go in and take a look!"
The Taiyi Holy Lord and supreme elders decided to enter the Demon Sealing Land abyss to investigate. If someone had truly broken through the Demon Sealing Land, then the restrictions set by the great venerable years ago would no longer be in place. Even those above 100 years old would be able to enter.
As expected, they were able to easily enter Demon Sealing Land. They could even descend to the deepest part. They discovered that the invincible divine halberd left by the former venerable and Holy Lord had also disappeared.

"What? Someone actually managed to break through Demon Sealing Land?"
"Who could it be?"
"Demon Sealing Land contains an array left by an ancient great venerable. Only a Liuhe Realm great grandmaster, and under the age of 100, can enter. Who could it be?"
"But in our sect, other than the Holy Lord and a few old fogeys, when was there ever a young, great grandmaster of the Liuhe Realm?"
The upper echelons were all stunned.
Chapter 10:

The upper echelons were all stunned.
A great grandmaster in the Liuhe Realm was considered a top expert even in ancient families, immortal holy lands, ancient dynasties, and other powerful forces. Taiyi Holy Land had declined a long time ago. Other than the Holy Lord and a few old fogeys, there were no other top experts at that level.
However, they could sense that the abyss contained an intricate, powerful aura that did not dissipate for a long time.
After careful inspection, they all gasped in shock, "It wasn't a Liuhe Realm great grandmaster. It was an Wuxing Realm grandmaster level expert. But all the Wuxing Realm experts of Taiyi Holy Land are here. None of them entered Demon Sealing Land. Besides, even if an expert at level nine of Wuxing Realm breaks through Demon Sealing Land, he or she is not likely to survive."
"There's one more condition – you must be under 100 years old. Otherwise, the previous Holy Lords would long have come and taken away the former great venerable's colossal opportunity."
Everyone was dumbfounded. Who was it?
Soon, their expressions darkened. They guessed that a young, supreme expert from the outside world had very likely sneaked into Taiyi Holy Land, broken through Demon Sealing Land, and taken away the colossal opportunity left by the former venerable.
Even the holy land's most outstanding genius disciple, the current Holy Daughter Ling Ran, had only managed to reach the fourth stage. Although she had received tons of resources, she was still only at level three of the Wuxing Realm.
The Holy Lord and supreme elders immediately activated a large array to seal off Taiyi Holy Land.
The divine weapon left by the former venerable and Holy Lord had been taken. It must at least have been a venerable-grade divine weapon. To the declining Taiyi Holy Land, it was a very important item. It was not something they could lose.
However, after they sealed off Taiyi Holy Land, the Holy Lord and elders personally searched the land many times over, but found nothing.
Of course, they would not have noticed Qin Chen, who was silently sweeping in front of an ancient hall.
After a fruitless search, the Holy Lord and elders gathered again. Their expressions were sombre. "This is no simple person. We have searched so hard, and still not found him. Who could have broken into Taiyi Holy Land, gotten through Demon Sealing Land without a sound, and obtained the ancestral master's invincible divine weapon?"
"D*mn it! With the venerable's divine weapon now missing, what's more unnerving is that the divine halberd in Demon Sealing Land was not only the weapon of the ancestral master, it was also left behind to contain the demonic palace. Once the demonic palace emerges into the world, the whole of Taiyi Holy Land will be in danger!"
On hearing that, the expressions of the other supreme elders became serious. Some even looked a bit frightened.
Because they had recalled the scary existence of a demonic palace in some part of Taiyi Holy Land. It was just that it had been contained by an ancient sage ancestor of Taiyi Holy Land.
According to rumors, the demonic palace had come from the ten thousand ancient races.
During the primordial era, ten thousand races had coexisted together. It was not like the present era, where the human race dominated.
At that time, the ten thousand ancient races were immensely prosperous and powerful, far beyond imagination. There were countless Qiyao Realm kings and Bahuang Realm venerables, and all the powerful races had sages in the Jiutian Realm. Even supreme beings, known as primordial emperors, were born during that period and ruled the primordial era.
In comparison, the human race back then could be described as weak and incompetent, having to depend completely on others to survive.
But after that, a terrifying epic war took place among the heavenly emperors of the primordial era. Gods fell and countless expert cultivators perished. In the end, it led to the collapse of the world, which then entered the Dharma-Ending Age.
The ten thousand ancient races had sealed themselves off, and avoided the Dharma-Ending Age.
Sealed within the demonic palace was a great demon of the Jiutian Realm, no less powerful than the ancient sages. It was from one of the ten thousand ancient races that had sealed itself off at that time.
Back then, when it was discovered by the sage ancestral master, the great demon was still sealed off. It had not yet come out into the world.
The ancient sage knew that once the great demon emerged, the entire Southern Desolate Lands, even the whole Canglan Continent, would certainly fall under a rule of darkness and ruthless slaughter.
According to the ancient sage's prediction, the great demon would unseal and emerge in the world in hundreds of thousands of years.
As the sage had pity on the world, he took the demonic palace back to Taiyi Holy Land to try to contain it.
The ancient sage believed that with the aid of Taiyi Holy Land, the great demon could continue to be suppressed and sealed before it emerged into the world. With the passage of time, they might even be able to completely destroy it.

However, the ancient sage never would have expected Taiyi Holy Land to decline long before that. Moreover, the holy land had been through a terrible war, and many important books and records had been lost. Even the Holy Lords of recent generations did not know where the demonic palace was sealed in the holy land.
It had been more than 100,000 years since the sealing of the demonic palace. By right, it should be emerging soon.
Back then, the invincible great venerable had also been worried that Taiyi Holy Land would not be able to contain the ancient race great demon. Therefore, he left behind his invincible divine weapon. According to rumors, it was not an ordinary divine weapon. It was even likely to be a holy weapon. It also contained venerable divine power that the great venerable had poured in before passing away. At the critical moment, its power could be fully restored, equivalent to the great venerable himself using the divine weapon to strike an invincible blow.
However, Demon Sealing Land had now been broken through, and the invincible divine weapon had disappeared.
As such, the higher-ups of Taiyi Holy Land were quite worried. Once the great demon emerged in the world, the current Taiyi Holy Land might not be able to withstand it. It might be completely destroyed.
The Taiyi Holy Lord sighed, "I might need to use the holy land's reserves at the critical moment. Even though Taiyi Holy Land has declined, we continue to hold the title of "Holy Land" by relying on the reserves left by our ancestors. If the holy land faces a catastrophe, we will have no choice but to use the holy land's reserves to kill it!"
However, Taiyi Holy Land should never use the reserves unless it was absolutely necessary.
It could only be used in a matter of life and death.
Taiyi Holy Land was no longer as powerful as it used to be, but its reserves served as a deterrent to various outside forces. Once it was used, Taiyi Holy Land would be in danger.
"Let's go. Since the venerable's divine weapon is lost, let's quickly find the location of the demonic palace. I trust there's still time before the great demon is unsealed and awakened! Let's hurry up and find it before that happens. By using the holy land's reserves, I believe we'll be able to contain it for some time," the Taiyi Holy Lord sighed helplessly. Then, he led the group of elders out and left.
[Ding dong!]
[Congratulations, you have successfully checked in. You have received the Moving Secret Technique!]
The system's mechanical voice suddenly rang in Qin Chen's head. It was from the check-in at Demon Sealing Land. Because he had left in a hurry, the system notification only arrived then, giving Qin Chen a huge surprise.
The Moving Secret Technique was said to be an emperor-grade movement technique created by a primordial time-space great emperor. It was known to be the fastest in the world.
According to rumors, once it was fully cultivated, one would be able to control the flow of and travel through time.
Qin Chen never expected to obtain the Moving Secret Technique there.
After mastering the Moving Secret Technique, there was no doubt that his speed would be raised to the maximum, and he would be upgraded to the next level in a very short time.
However, why would he receive the Moving Secret Technique at Demon Sealing Land?
Qin Chen did not quite understand.
However, it was certainly a great harvest that day. Not only did he break through Demon Sealing Land and obtain an invincible divine halberd, he had also successfully checked in and obtained the Moving Secret Technique. He had definitely earned a lot that day.
"System, please identify this weapon."
Qin Chen handed the halberd he had obtained to the system for identification. That was one of the functions of the system that he had recently discovered. It could be used to identify many treasures.
After a while, the system said: [Desolate Divine Halberd, the weapon of the quasi-emperor Taihuang from the mythological era. It is a quasi-emperor grade weapon.]

On hearing that, Qin Chen gasped. He did not expect it to be a quasi-emperor grade weapon.
Quasi-emperors were second only to ancient great emperors. Furthermore, it was a quasi-emperor grade weapon from the mythological era. It had been one to two million years since that period, but the Desolate Divine Halberd still displayed a special characteristic of not having decayed. One could imagine that Taihuang was no ordinary quasi-emperor.
In addition, Qin Chen suspected that Taihuang was very likely related to a time-space great emperor. Otherwise, how could he have obtained the Moving Secret Technique there?
After obtaining the Desolate Divine Halberd and Moving Secret Technique, Qin Chen continued to casually check in to various places in Taiyi Holy Land. During that time, he occasionally sneaked into Demon Sealing Land to check in. From there, he had obtained the legendary supernormal knowledge Eight Desolation Strikes, which was also a halberd technique created by Taihuang, a quasi-emperor grade supernormal knowledge.
Of course, his knowledge and proficiencies were broad and wide. Qin Chen was still only at the Wuxing Realm. After spending a few months to cultivate some techniques, his power greatly increased.
