First Stage: Immortal Path

"Ah, the first stage should be called the Immortal Path. Luckily I'm still not senile." Adolf smiled faintly as he finally recalled the first stage of the technique.

He then looked at Miya and said, "girl, erase your power."

"Mm..." Miya nodded, she didn't hesitate.

She waved her hand, immediately after that the aura that enveloped Adolf's body disappeared.

Right after that, an extremely strong air pressure hit Adolf's body, causing his body to twist.

"Young master." Miya immediately panicked when she saw his state, she almost stepped up to save him, but Adolf raised his hand as a sign not to move.

Such a state would surely make a sovereign scream in pain, but it could not even make Adolf knit his brows. He looked so calm as if he didn't feel anything.

He started cultivating, but he didn't close his eyes like cultivators often did when they were cultivating. Instead, he was simply observing his body with an expression that looked like he was enjoying the sensations in his body.

One by one, the sound of bones breaking was heard in his body, they sounded so loud that Miya and Snow were horrified.

Some parts of his body even started to crumble.

But after a while, boundless spiritual energy suddenly came from various directions and gathered around his body. They did not enter his body but surrounded him as if he was the source of them all.

At the same time, the statue near the empress lake that was usually always calm suddenly emitted a boundless golden light, that light then soared into the sky, turning the night in the empress lake region into a bright day.

That light forced every mortal and weak cultivator to prostrate while cultivators who were strong enough had to bow.

The sudden incident took almost everyone in town by surprise.

"This is supreme power," said the people.

"The statue hides the supreme power, does it also hide the supreme inheritance?"

"It's been there for a long time, and there were a lot of people looking into it, but none of them found anything."

"Or is it as the rumors say, it's a statue of the Invincible Supreme."

"There is a possibility, because only the Invincible Supreme's inheritance is not easy to obtain."

Unfortunately they currently don't know that the statue in the city isn't the only one that emits light.

In the western territory, there was a statue of a man in a white robe holding a book on top of a mountain belonging to a peak sect and it was also emitting golden light which then gathered in the sky. It shocked the ancestor and sect disciples, they had no idea what was going on.

"This is the power of the founder," in the end, they could only say that.

Not far from the sect, there was a statue of a woman in silver armor and holding a spear standing beside the desolate river. Every day, there would always be people who came to pay their respects to the statue. The same thing happened to the statue.

Likewise with several statues in other territories, north, south, and even the east itself.

The lights turned most of the area into day.

No one knew what was going on, but the lights then gathered in the sky before merging into one.

Each one of those lights came from the power of a supreme, each one was basically a peak of power, but they suddenly started to merge, it was just as shocking as their appearance.

As people continued to look at the lights, they found that they were starting to shrink.

They shrink slowly at first, but get faster with time. Without people noticing, the lights finally turned into a small point of light.

Even though it was just a small point of light, it actually emitted a light that was as bright as the previous lights that it was clearly visible to people's eyes. The only difference was that the light it emitted was milky white, and it was so full of vitality that people who were about to die became healthy again when the light hit their bodies.

Shua...

It suddenly moved, it didn't move in the usual way, it directly pierced the void so no one knew where it had gone.

Miya and Snow were the only ones who saw the dot of light appear in Adolf's mouth and he swallowed it directly.

"Oh, I have to gather the strength of dozens of supremes to form my spiritual core, well, this is an immortal spiritual core after all, with this, I no longer have to worry about age and injury," he said.

After that, he started to close his eyes.

If anyone could see inside his current body, they would definitely be greatly shocked by the extremely astonishing changes within his body.

His red flesh and blood suddenly turned a milky white color. The bones even became transparent so they looked like glass.

Within his belly, his spiritual core radiated energy constantly as if it was an energy source that possessed boundless energy. He seemed to never run out of energy even if he didn't absorb spiritual energy from nature.

The moment he opened his eyes again, his body suddenly emitted a milky white light, it was so full of vitality that his shattered body reshaped in the blink of an eye.

His body also emitted the aura of an early stage spiritual warrior. Cultivations of that level were inherently so weak that none of them mattered, but Miya and Snow somehow felt as though Adolf was currently a being that couldn't be destroyed either by an all-powerful might or by infinite time.

"Ahhh, being a cultivator is indeed much better than being a mortal. Now I can remember everything." Adolf then stretched his slightly thin body so that the sound of bones crackling could be heard from within his body.

Early stage spiritual warriors were still not strong enough to survive there, the effects they suffered were basically only slightly better than mortal mortals, even spiritual masters would grit their teeth. But now, Adolf who was sitting leisurely there didn't seem to be affected at all by the air pressure there.
