    Chapter 446

    After putting everything in order, Su Hao returned to the meditation chamber and organized his next research plan.

    "I've already reached the Nascent Soul Realm, but I still don't know how to advance into the Unity Realm."

    "It's unlikely that the disciple archives contain the Unity cultivation methods."

    "So eventually... I'll have to find a Unity cultivator and ask."

    That much was inevitable.

    However, now was not the right time.

    Su Hao still knew too little about the abilities unique to Unity cultivators. Approaching one carelessly could easily become dangerous.

    For the moment, his priority was to thoroughly organize everything he had learned about cultivation, understand the principles behind Unity techniques, and develop reliable countermeasures.

    This wasn't because he believed he couldn't defeat a Unity cultivator.

    On the contrary.

    With his current abilities, killing one was entirely possible.

    If necessary, he could simply drop a massive explosive formation.

    Who could survive that?

    But killing someone solved very few problems.

    Violence was only one method of achieving a goal, and it had obvious limitations.

    Nor did Su Hao enjoy killing.

    What he wanted was to understand how Unity cultivators fought, discover methods to neutralize their abilities, and leave them with no choice but to sit down and have a proper conversation.

    As for those who still refused to cooperate...

    One slash would be enough.

    "First, I'll organize the books I've collected over the past year."

    "At the same time, I'll continue improving my control over this enormous amount of spiritual power."

    "Although the quantity is immense..."

    "It still isn't responsive enough."

    The reason was simple.

    His spiritual power had grown far beyond normal limits, while his Spiritual Intent had not been refined over decades like ordinary cultivators.

    The result was occasional delays between thought and execution.

    Su Hao couldn't tolerate that.

    Once someone had experienced 5G, how could they willingly return to 3G?

    Deep within Spirit Mountain Continent

    Inside a magnificent palace...

    A man surrounded by an unfathomable aura sat upon a massive throne with his eyes closed.

    He was the self-proclaimed Immortal Master.

    Standing respectfully before him was a woman with violet lips—

    Lin Mei.

    After a long silence, the Immortal Master slowly opened his eyes.

    A cold light flashed within them.

    "I didn't expect..."

    "That Crystal Thief would actually be connected to Moonwatch Valley."

    Lin Mei smiled.

    "Fortunately, Left Hall Master was observant."

    "Otherwise, we would have overlooked that cyan flying sword."

    "During the siege of the Qianfeng Assembly, one low-level disciple relied solely on that weapon to kill seven Golden Core cultivators in succession."

    "If countless people hadn't witnessed it themselves..."

    "No one would have believed such a thing."

    She continued,

    "Later, Crystal Thief suddenly appeared and instantly killed two Nascent Soul cultivators from Triple Phoenix Pavilion, forcing them to self-destruct."

    "The weapon used then bore obvious similarities to the cyan sword that disciple wielded."

    "So..."

    "Whether Crystal Thief belongs to Moonwatch Valley..."

    "Or merely has connections with it..."

    "Either way..."

    "The matter has become extremely interesting."


    ---

    The Immortal Master smiled faintly.

    "The truth is irrelevant."

    "Even if Moonwatch Valley has nothing to do with Crystal Thief..."

    "As long as people believe the two are connected..."

    "Someone will eventually produce convincing evidence."

    "The final outcome will be exactly the same."

    Lin Mei bowed.

    "The Immortal Master's wisdom is unmatched."


    ---

    After thinking briefly, the Immortal Master issued several orders.

    "First."

    "Continue collecting information related to Crystal Thief."

    "Select only the useful parts."

    "Spread them quietly."

    "The people who should notice will eventually piece everything together themselves."

    "Second."

    "Inform Left Hall Master Ehuan."

    "The affairs of the Thirty-Nine Mortal Domains are now entirely his responsibility."

    "I don't merely want Moonwatch Valley destroyed."

    "I want every immortal sect there to suffer severe losses."

    "Third."

    "Use the current chaos within the Thirty-Nine Mortal Domains."

    "While those sects are distracted..."

    "Accelerate the harvesting of Blood Spirits."

    "Right Hall Master Lichi will oversee this."

    "If an opponent proves troublesome..."

    "Report directly to me."

    "I will deal with them personally."

    Lin Mei bowed deeply.

    "Understood."


    ---

    The Immortal Master slowly leaned back.

    His gaze drifted toward the distant heavens.

    "Beyond the Unity Realm..."

    "Lies true immortality."

    "For that future..."

    "Any sacrifice is worthwhile."


    ---

    One year later

    The year passed quietly.

    During that time, Su Hao gained tremendous insight.

    He finally uncovered the secret behind advancing from the Nascent Soul Realm into the Unity Realm.

    It involved...

    implanting spiritual power of the same attribute.


    ---

    After reaching the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, the body's degree of spiritualization reached its natural limit.

    No matter how much one cultivated...

    Additional spiritual power simply could not remain within the body.

    Adding more refined spiritual power merely caused an equal amount to leak away.

    The total never increased.

    It resembled sugar dissolving in water.

    Once saturation was reached...

    Adding more sugar accomplished nothing.


    ---

    Cultivators had struggled against this limitation for countless generations.

    Eventually...

    Someone proposed an unusual idea.

    "If my own spiritual power cannot increase..."

    "Could I borrow someone else's?"

    The first attempt failed.

    However...

    An observant cultivator noticed something important.

    Although the borrowed spiritual power eventually dispersed...

    It remained inside the body for a brief period.

    That...

    was enough.

    It revealed a path forward.


    ---

    He immediately turned his attention toward his fellow disciples.

    Not long afterward...

    He slaughtered nearly everyone in his sect.

    Using the spiritual power of three cultivators sharing the same attribute...

    He created the first Three-Spirit Lockheart Array.

    The three streams of similar—but not identical—spiritual power stabilized one another inside his body.

    Together...

    They shattered the natural limit of the Nascent Soul Realm.

    The world's first Unity Realm cultivator was born.

    He became known as...

    Unity Immortal Yuan.

    For an entire millennium...

    His name shook the cultivation world.


    ---

    Eventually...

    The secret of the Unity Realm spread.

    The tragedy only worsened.

    Senior disciples became targets.

    When they became scarce...

    People began eyeing their own disciples instead.

    Thus...

    More and more sects began recruiting talented youngsters under the noble banner of:

    "For the continuation of our inheritance."

    And so...

    The great flourishing age of cultivation officially began.


    ---

    After reading all this...

    Su Hao slowly shook his head.

    "So..."

    "The cultivation path beyond the Nascent Soul Realm..."

    "Has already gone astray."

    Once an entire civilization walked down the wrong road...

    Turning back became extraordinarily difficult.


    ---

    He thought quietly,

    "Breaking through doesn't necessarily require stealing another person's spiritual power."

    "But..."

    "The underlying idea is worth studying."

    "Using external force to break through an internal limit..."

    "That concept itself has value."


    ---

    Although he now possessed three sources of Wind spiritual power...

    Su Hao immediately abandoned the idea of advancing through the traditional Unity method.

    It simply wasn't suitable for him.

    If he reincarnated into another world later...

    Whose spiritual power would he steal then?

    Yashan's?

    Impossible.

    If he wanted a path that transcended worlds...

    It had to rely entirely upon himself.


    ---

    "There must be another way."

    "A genuine method to break the limits of the Nascent Soul Realm."


    ---

    More importantly...

    Su Hao possessed absolute confidence.

    He believed that method existed.

    And he believed...

    He would find it.


    ---

    "Give me enough time..."

    "I'll create an entirely new path."

    "A path leading toward the sun."

    "I'll publish it openly."

    "And completely overturn this twisted Unity cultivation system."


    ---

    Then...

    The cultivation world could finally leave behind this ugly cycle of slaughter.

    And begin pursuing something truly worthwhile—

    the science of spiritual power.


    ---

    As for whether remaining in the Nascent Soul Realm placed him at a disadvantage against Unity cultivators...

    Su Hao only smiled.

    "The advantage..."

    "is mine."
