On The Path Of Cultivation To Become God

The woman was shocked by the revelation.

Dragon bloodlines were rare and highly coveted, even in the upper realm.

Many immortals and stronger beings would stop at nothing to possess the power and abilities that came with a dragon bloodline.

"That kid, it shouldn\'t be possible," she whispered, her voice trembling with a mix of surprise and curiosity.

From just this attack that Chen Tian made against the Pine Ghost Trees, it was clear that the ability he used was a bloodline ability, and to her shock, it was a damn soul attack.

Soul techniques are extremely rare and highly coveted within the world of cultivation.

So the fact that Chen Tian possessed such a powerful bloodline ability was both intriguing and alarming.

The woman couldn\'t help but wonder where he had inherited such a bloodline.

As she continued to watch Chen Tian\'s every move, she couldn\'t help but feel a growing sense of anticipation and apprehension.

She wanted to check the grade of his bloodline, but the woman stopped herself after remembering what happened last time when she tried to check Chen Tian\'s Dantian. A wave of fear washed over her.

"Could he possibly be able to help me?" The woman whispered to herself, her lips barely moving.

Hope and uncertainty rose in her heart as she considered the possibilities.

After observing Chen Tian for these months, the woman witnessed the immense strength he possessed.

His skills and techniques in fighting were unparalleled for his age. The woman knew many genius cultivators, but Chen Tian was on a whole different level.

The woman couldn\'t deny the potential he held within him. She knew that if anyone could help her in this mortal world, he was the best option.

No, he was her best option!

Chen Tian kept killing the Pine Ghost Trees one after another, his movements fluid and precise.

|Crack|

A loud cracking sound rang inside Chen Tian\'s body; the aura of a 9th Stage Meridian Opening Realm changed, and the woman could sense a surge of power emanating from him.

Chen Tian\'s cultivation had reached the 10th stage of the Meridian Opening Realm.

"P-Peak Meridian Opening Realm!" The woman got another shock.

"Again, how did he do that? He never cultivated, but he was still able to reach The Peak Meridian Opening Realm."

In these five months, Chen Tian had never cultivated, not once, and only killed beasts right and left. The woman was at first puzzled by what he was doing, but her puzzled expression instantly turned into astonishment as she witnessed his rapid progress.

After seeing Chen Tian breakthrough to the Peak of the Meridian Opening Realm, the woman secretly made a decision inside her mind.

She decided to approach Chen Tian and ask him to help her; she must convince him, no matter the cost.

|KHAAAA!!!|

"Hahaha, I\'m one level away from the Foundation Establishment Realm," Chen Tian exclaimed with excitement.

He had finally achieved a breakthrough after months of relentless killing.

He still had many cores inside his spatial ring, and he was still absorbing them at an astonishing rate.

After breakthrough to the Peak of the Meridian Opening Realm, Chen Tian felt an overwhelming sense of power coursing through his veins.

All his meridians were opened with a shocking 1,000 meters of diameter, surpassing anyone else in the meridian opening realm.

Even the prodigies who are cultivated by the immortal sects wouldn\'t be able to match his meridian diameter.

|Clunggg|

Chen Tian slashed his sword through the air, feeling the rush of power with each strike. The excitement of his breakthrough fueled his determination to continue slashing through his enemies.

With his expanded meridian diameter, those Pine Ghost Trees couldn\'t do anything.

The hundred Pine Ghost Trees were reduced to 20; his increased power and meridian diameter made it even easier for him to defeat them effortlessly.

Chen Tian\'s lips twitched into a smile as he fought.

Suddenly, the smile disappeared from his face as he realized something was wrong.

His instinct screamed at him, warning him of danger.

"Heavenly Lightning Steps [2nd Step]"

|Tzzzz|

|Whosshhhh|

He quickly escaped from where he was standing and appeared in a flash, several meters away.

|BOOOOOM|

His heart raced as he saw the enormous trunk that had landed right where he had been moments ago. The impact was so powerful that it shook the ground and sent debris flying in all directions.

Chen Tian\'s quick reflexes had saved him from being crushed by the massive trunk. As he looked at the wreckage, he couldn\'t help but wonder how such a huge object had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"KHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"

|CRACKKKK|

From the ground emerged many branches and vines, writhing and twisting in an otherworldly frenzy.

They seemed to have a life of their own, reaching out and grasping anything in their path.

|KHAAAA!!|

|KHHAAAAAA!!|

Other Pine Ghost Trees were crushed under the weight of the massive trunk, their branches snapping, and leaves scattering in the chaos.

Chen Tian\'s eyes widened in horror as he realized that the trunk from which he narrowly escaped was just the beginning.

Another Pine Ghost Tree arrived at the scene; this time the tree was even larger and more menacing than the previous one.

Its roots dug deep into the ground, causing tremors that shook the surrounding area. Chen Tian could feel his heart pounding in his chest as he watched in disbelief.

"Sh*t!" Chen Tian cursed under his breath.

The Pine Ghost Tree was larger than 10 Pine Ghost Trees combined, towering over everything in its path. Its branches stretched out like gnarled claws, reaching for the sky, while its leaves emitted an eerie, greenish glow.

"What luck! After killing many of your kind, the boss finally showed up." Chen Tian thought sarcastically.

"Heavenly Lightning Steps [2nd Step]"

Chen Tian escaped as another attack came crashing down, narrowly missing him.

"Fuck, that was dangerous!"

He could feel the intense pressure from the Pine Ghost Tree\'s power.

Well, it wasn\'t a surprise since, after checking the Pine Ghost Tree level, Chen Tian realized that it was a strong opponent, even for the current him.

Law: Wood, Darkness

"KHAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

A loud, ear-piercing scream echoed through the forest as Chen Tian prepared himself for another round of attacks.

He knew he had to come up with a strategy quickly if he wanted to defeat the Pine Ghost Tree that just appeared.

Even with his peak meridian-opening realm, Chen Tian knew that he would have a tough time facing off against the Pine Ghost Tree.

The difference between a Meridian Opening Realm and a Foundation Establishment was immense, like the chasm between a flickering candle and a raging solar flare.

A Meridian Opening cultivator was a novice, fumbling with the most basic flows of spiritual energy, barely coaxing it through their unrefined pathways.

Their movements were clumsy, their attacks weak, and their defenses were akin to a paper screen against a battering ram.

But a Foundation Establishment cultivator? They were titans in the making.

The spiritual Qi inside their bodies would have been condensed into a potent liquid, surging through their meridians with precision and power.

Even one drop of their spiritual Qi could obliterate 10 Peak Meridian Opening Realm cultivators.

The Meridian Opening Realm was a springboard, a shaky first step on the path of immortality. Foundation Establishment, however, was the true gateway.

In the cultivation world, only cultivators that reach the Core Formation Realm are considered truly immortal cultivators.

After seeing that Pine Ghost Tree was even at the 2nd Stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, Chen Tian\'s lips curled into a satisfied smile.

"How many levels would I level up after killing it?!"

For Chen Tian, the Pine Ghost Tree wasn\'t a threat, but a huge-level boss that would drop many experience points and treasures upon defeat.
