Ten Divine Wheels Are Not the Limit; I Shall Forge My Own Invincible Path!
A radiant golden divine wheel surged from Jiang Yuqiong's body!
In an instant, it unleashed a terrifying aura!
It was as if it were the first gleam of divine light from the dawn of creation, born from chaos!
Rolling waves of power surged forth, sweeping through the ninth heaven, shaking the very fabric of the world!
The small space trembled fiercely!
In the void, countless restrictive runes flared again, dazzlingly bright.
Their flowing energy strained against the tide of destructive force!
BOOM!
The heavens swayed and the earth quaked, the void rippling like ocean waves!
Above Jiang Yuqiong, nine divine wheels stood like nine suns across the sky!
The tenth divine wheel emerged behind him, slowly revealing its full form!
This wheel was larger than the combined size of the previous nine!
It ground through the void, emitting a relentless, thunderous roar!
As if it would pulverize the entire space into dust!
A fearsome aura tore through the heavens!
But had Su Qingshuang and the others been present, they'd have been utterly shocked!
For in that void, clusters of heavenly laws and invisible order materialized, coiling like massive chains around the tenth divine wheel!
Trying to drag it back into Jiang Yuqiong's body!
This was the suppressive force of the heavens and earth!
Ten divine wheels—the Dao could not abide them!
Even the vast cosmos resisted the birth of a ten-wheeled cultivator!
"AAAHHH!!!"
"OPEN FOR ME!!!"
Jiang Yuqiong's childish voice roared, pouring every ounce of strength into the assault!
The Supreme Bone at his chest glowed!
The Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique and Divine Elephant Prison-Suppressing Strength roared to life in unison!
Boundless power gathered, erupting from his seemingly frail body, surging into the tenth divine wheel!
Jiang Yuqiong gritted his teeth, shoving more treasure medicines into his mouth, swallowing them whole, holding on fiercely.
As time passed, a sharp "BANG" finally sounded.
One chain of the Dao snapped!
The tenth divine wheel rose another three inches!
And this seemed to trigger a chain reaction!
BANG! BANG! BANG!
One chain after another broke!
Each deafening crack sent the space shuddering, as if the world would flip!
Amid this chaos, the tenth divine wheel climbed higher!
One by one, the heavenly shackles shattered!
In an instant, its brilliance outshone the other nine wheels combined.
"So tired!"
Jiang Yuqiong collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
The ten divine wheels above faded slowly.
He'd drained every shred of strength; his 840 million giant elephant particles withered.
Not a trace of spiritual energy remained!
Yet a grin of irrepressible joy spread across his face.
"Finally did it!"
Jiang Yuqiong sighed in relief.
Months of effort hadn't been in vain.
He'd successfully forged the tenth divine wheel!
Soon, he felt a steady stream of energy pouring in!
The ten divine wheels, even retracted, devoured the world's primal energy ravenously!
Like a mountain flood irrigating parched land, it nourished his body.
His strength recovered swiftly!
Outside, Granny Xi sat before the cave, gazing at it with a puzzled expression.
The reinforced restrictions blocked her from clearly sensing Jiang Yuqiong's state or hearing much.
"What's that little guy up to now with all this racket? Testing the power of nine divine wheels, maybe?"
Granny Xi chuckled to herself.
She couldn't believe he'd reached Divine Wheel Tenth Layer so soon.
Less than half a year!
He must be bored from seclusion, taking a break.
She considered checking on him but thought better of it.
Let him have his fun!
He might keep cultivating, or if he didn't want to, he'd come out himself.
With Su Qingshuang's jade pendant, even a cultivation mishap wouldn't harm him!
With that, Granny Xi closed her eyes, resuming her quiet meditation.
Inside, Jiang Yuqiong lay sprawled for a while before recovering.
Ding! Congratulations, Host, on completing the task!
Reward issued!
Would you like to fuse with the Art of Movement?
Hearing this, Jiang Yuqiong broke into a knowing smile.
The task was finally done!
The Art of Movement was his!
"Fuse!"
He didn't hesitate.
This was one of the Nine Secrets!
The ultimate embodiment of "movement" in the world!
He already had the Golden-Winged Peng runes, granting unrivaled speed.
But even that paled beside the Art of Movement!
Its true marvel wasn't speed alone—
It pierced through myriad obstacles—peerless killing arrays couldn't trap it, mystic gates couldn't bar it!
At its peak, it warped time, freezing the world for a fleeting instant!
In a clash of titans, a split second could decide life or death!
Instantly, a flood of information poured into his mind.
The mysteries of the Art of Movement etched themselves into his soul.
But he didn't rush to cultivate it.
His thoughts drifted elsewhere.
"Are ten divine wheels really the ultimate limit?"
Memories flashed through his mind.
Nine was the extreme number.
Thus, cultivators could only forge nine divine wheels.
Ten was perfection.
So Dai Wangyang broke the barrier, forging ten and becoming the only one in eons!
But Jiang Yuqiong didn't believe this was the true pinnacle of cultivation!
"Nine is the extreme, ten is perfection, but it lacks transformation!"
"Like the vast cosmos! Yin and yang give birth, all things emerge! The path of cultivation is but a pursuit of the Dao's evolution, defying heavenly fate!"
"The true extreme isn't perfection—it's infinite transformation! Like the Dao's dawn, yin and yang igniting—one begets two, two begets three, three begets all things!"
"That's the real Dao! That's the ultimate invincible path!"
Suddenly, as if struck by revelation, Jiang Yuqiong saw the truth.
Ten divine wheels weren't the limit!
Even as the only one in eons, they'd appeared often in ancient times!
Now, someone else had claimed it first!
That was another's invincible path!
He, Jiang Yuqiong, wouldn't deign to follow it!
"If that's so, I'll forge my own invincible path, unique to me!"
With that thought, he sat cross-legged again, his little face deadly serious.
With a surge of intent—
BOOM BOOM BOOM!
Ten divine wheels shot upward, blazing with eternal light!
The tenth wheel held the center, the other nine orbiting like stars around the moon!
Under his will, the ten wheels collided and pressed against each other!
"Crack crack crack…"
In a blink, a sound like shattering jade exploded.
Cracks spiderwebbed across one wheel, on the verge of breaking!
Moments later, the others fractured too!
Terrifying energy erupted, shaking the heavens and earth!
Jiang Yuqiong's body trembled violently, flesh splitting, blood flowing!
