Generally speaking, after cultivating to the Dao Body, it becomes much easier for cultivators to comprehend other Daos. However, for cultivators in the Great Dao Realm, mastering more complete Great Daos is still not an easy task.
Just like Fairy Zi Ling, her primary focus is the Way of the Sword. Now, at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm, she has already mastered a complete Great Dao and can break through to the Great Dao Realm at any time. However, after entering the Great Dao Realm, she will need to comprehend other Great Daos to assist her Way of the Sword in opening up her inner world.
For Zhang Fan, the step of comprehending other Great Daos can be skipped. After all, every Immortal Emperor is a being who has mastered the Way of Heaven and has comprehended countless Great Daos.
However, Zhang Fan's advantage lies in the fact that other top powerhouses at the Void Returning realm did not master so many Great Daos. This means he can use this advantage to open up the most perfect world and condense an invincible Dao Origin.
"Since there is no direction, I will break through to the Great Dao Realm first and then think about this problem." Zhang Fan is not a person who dwells on things. Since he cannot figure it out for now, he simply stops thinking about it.
The primordial spirit, the rules of the Dao, and the physical body have perfectly merged into one. With the Great Dao as a guide, Zhang Fan has no obstacles in breaking through to the Great Dao Realm. The entire war base was the only one who sensed this special aura: Immortal King Zhen Cang. He transmitted a message: "Congratulations, Little Friend Shi Jue, for entering the Void Returning realm."
"Thank you, Immortal King!" Zhang Fan thanked him, then sank back into cultivation. As various Great Daos were added, Zhang Fan's aura climbed all the way to the peak of the Great Dao Realm.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, several months passed. When Zhang Fan emerged from seclusion again, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Great Dao Realm. To his surprise, he saw a few familiar faces.
Lin Haotian, Wuchen Sword Immortal, Tianhua Heavenly Monarch, and Liu Mu. These four had trained for many years on the Nascent Soul battleground and had now entered the Nascent Soul realm and come to the Nascent Soul battleground.
For this reason, Zhang Fan specially spent hundreds of thousands of military merits to exchange for a batch of immortal wine from the military storehouse to entertain everyone.
"Heh heh, your speed is a bit slow. I've already reached the Refining God realm," Blood Demon Flood Dragon said to Lin Haotian, patting his shoulder with pride.
"Zhang Fan, what is your current realm?" Liu Mu, wanting to cultivate the Way of the Sword to perfection in the Nascent Soul stage, had delayed his breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage until now. Otherwise, with his talent, reaching the Refining God realm would not be difficult.
"Peak of the Great Dao Realm," Zhang Fan replied.
"Peak of the Great Dao Realm?"
Although everyone was already immune to Zhang Fan's rapid cultivation speed, they were still inevitably shocked when they heard this.
"Not long ago, Fairy Zi Ling also broke through to the Great Dao Realm. I see her often loitering outside your cave. Could she have taken a liking to you?" Blood Demon Flood Dragon stared at Zhang Fan with a half-smile.
"With my master's talent, isn't it normal for a fairy to take a liking to my master?" Lin Haotian glared at Blood Demon Flood Dragon.
"Alas, it's truly unfortunate for that fairy, who can only harbor unrequited love," Blood Demon Flood Dragon said with feigned sorrow.
Zhang Fan quietly listened to their nonsense, a smile unconsciously appearing on his face. He felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation. While the path of cultivation undoubtedly requires vigorous climbing, it would be too lonely to be alone. Having followers accompanying him on this journey is also a great joy.
"This wine is an immortal brew I exchanged from the military storehouse. Since we are all gathered here today, we must get drunk!" Zhang Fan took out the wine jar and waved his hand, placing an exquisite jade bowl in front of everyone.
"Fill it up!"
"Cheers!"
They were a group who emerged from the Wu Shan Star Domain. Being able to reach this point intact was not easy, so everyone present was filled with emotion.
"What kind of wine is this? After taking a sip, I feel more comfortable than eating a Core Formation Pill?" Blood Demon Flood Dragon howled in surprise after a bowl of immortal brew.
"I was still some distance away from the mid-stage Primordial Spirit realm, but after drinking a bowl of wine, I felt my Primordial Spirit power increase significantly," Wuchen Sword Immortal also felt surprised.
"This wine is called Peach Blossom Brew, brewed by a master brewer at the Void Returning level. Exchanging this jar of wine cost me hundreds of thousands of military merits. If it doesn't have any effect, it must be fake wine," Zhang Fan said jokingly.
"Hundreds of thousands?" Liu Mu held the bowl of wine in his hand and suddenly felt reluctant to drink it.
After all, on the Nascent Soul battleground, after a desperate battle, they might only earn a few hundred military merits. This sip might have cost them tens of thousands of military merits, making him heartbroken.
"We have been cultivating desperately for so many years, can't we enjoy ourselves? Fill it up and keep drinking," Zhang Fan waved his hand.
Although the immortal brew was precious, their reunion was brief. Naturally, they had to cherish this short and happy time. Everyone present got thoroughly drunk. Although the wine jar did not look large, its internal space was quite vast, exceeding three Zhang in all directions. Even Zhang Fan felt a bit tipsy after finishing it.
After a night, everyone present, except Zhang Fan, felt that their cultivation had improved significantly. This made Nan Zun and others lament that money is indeed good; drinking a meal could bring so many benefits. However, the enormous military merits were beyond their reach, and they could only wait for their master to host another feast to taste the Peach Blossom Brew.
"Fellow Daoist Shi Jue!"
As Zhang Fan walked out of his cultivation cave, he encountered Fairy Zi Ling coming towards him. She sensed a faint pressure emanating from Zhang Fan and couldn't help but ask, "Have you opened up your inner world?"
This question was, of course, a joke. After all, it had been less than half a year. Let alone opening up an inner world, it was impossible to reach the peak of the Great Dao Realm.
Zhang Fan shook his head and said, "I have only cultivated to the peak of the Great Dao Realm. I haven't decided what kind of inner world to create yet. I plan to go out and wander around before the opening of the Evil Buddha Immortal Venerable's dojo."
Fairy Zi Ling stared at Zhang Fan with her beautiful eyes, trying to confirm if he was joking. In less than half a year, he had actually reached the peak of the Great Dao Realm?
"You have also broken through to the Great Dao Realm. What are your plans next?" Zhang Fan asked, no longer dwelling on the topic.
"I can't stay in this starry battlefield anymore. I originally had no opponents of equal strength to spar with, but you've killed them all. I plan to return to the Purple Firmament Star Domain to cultivate for a while. If you don't have any plans, you can travel with me; perhaps you will gain different insights," Fairy Zi Ling invited Zhang Fan.
Zhang Fan thought about it. He indeed had no clear plans. He intended to wander in the Purple Firmament Star Domain for half a year. Regardless of whether he had opened up his inner world by then, he would go to the Evil Buddha Immortal Venerable's dojo to try his luck. Thus, he accepted Fairy Zi Ling's invitation.
