Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye.

Two years had already passed.

Within those two years, the damaged Level 2 Time Treasure Tower in Xu Qing’s hands was the first to accumulate enough Experience Points, so he upgraded it to Level 10.

On this day.

Inside the Celestial Dao Space of the Level 42 Beastman Mini World.

VWOOM!

Xu Qing opened his eyes. He raised his right hand, palm facing up, and a thirty-six-story Black Pagoda immediately appeared, hovering quietly in his palm. It was wreathed in a black, misty light and radiated an incredibly powerful Immortal aura. One could almost see the River of Time coiling around it like a black dragon...

...

[Damaged Time Treasure Tower Level 10: 0/51.2 billion Zi (Originally a completely damaged Immortal Supreme Treasure, it has undergone nine upgrades. Under the effect of a mysterious power, it has been completely repaired and restored to its peak state.)]

...

Additionally,

Once the Damaged Time Treasure Tower reached Level 10, Xu Qing could no longer upgrade it. According to the information from the Encyclopedia of All Things, if he tried to upgrade it any further, the pagoda would spin completely out of control.

Under these circumstances,

the Level 10 Damaged Time Treasure Tower could only be upgraded again without risk once Xu Qing managed to step into the Seventh Realm.

The fully repaired Black Pagoda was extremely powerful.

Among its abilities,

was a time acceleration function.

On the highest, thirty-sixth floor, the maximum time acceleration could reach a ratio of one to one hundred million. This meant that for every year that passed in the outside world, one hundred million years would pass in the space-time of the Black Pagoda’s thirty-sixth floor.

It was that terrifying.

Of course,

a full hundred-million-fold time acceleration was enough to completely tear apart anyone whose Cultivation was insufficient. Only those who had stepped into the Seventh Realm were qualified to set foot on the thirty-sixth floor of the Black Pagoda.

Currently,

Xu Qing was still only in the Sixth Realm. Although he was already in the Daoist Venerable Realm, he could only enter the twentieth floor of the Black Pagoda for now.

The maximum time acceleration on the twentieth floor of the Black Pagoda was one to ten million.

In other words,

for every year that passed outside, ten million years would pass on the Black Pagoda’s twentieth floor.

"’For me, the greatest use of this Time Treasure Tower’s time acceleration is to accumulate Experience Points. It can drastically increase the speed at which I do so.’"

Xu Qing mused.

After all,

while the time acceleration inside the Black Pagoda was terrifying, one couldn’t engage in closed-door Cultivation within it. But Xu Qing’s practice of the Chaos Sword Dao wasn’t considered Cultivation; it was a method for accumulating Experience Points.

Therefore,

this ability was perfect for him.

Next,

Xu Qing waved his right hand and took out the Chaos Origin Sword Array Map. Two years had passed in the Profound Yellow Realm, but with 400,000-fold time acceleration, 800,000 years had passed inside the Level 42 Beastman Mini World.

As a result,

the Chaos Origin Sword Array Map, the World Origin Core, and the Innate Demon God Origin Essence Blood—all three of these items had accumulated enough Experience Points.

They were all upgraded to Level 10.

...

[Chaos Origin Sword Array Map Level 10: 0/51.2 billion Zi (A Sword Array Map that has undergone nine upgrades and transformations. Its Mighty Power is even greater, and it has reached a qualitative change...)]

...

[World Origin Core Level 10: 0/51.2 billion Zi (An Origin core that has undergone nine upgrades and transformations. Although it is merely a residue left behind when a Forbidden Land Life refines ’Immortal Substance,’ it has now begun to possess a trace of Immortal properties due to its repeated transformations...)]

...

[Innate Demon God Origin Essence Blood Level 10: 0/51.2 billion Zi (An Innate Demon God Origin Essence Blood that has undergone nine upgrades and transformations. Although it is only a single drop of Essence Blood, due to its repeated transformations, it now contains more than ninety percent of an Innate Demon God’s mysteries.)]

...

Three items.

All had reached Level 10.

Among them,

when the Level 10 Chaos Origin Sword Array Map was deployed, not only was its Mighty Power immense—enough to trap and kill Dao Level existences—but the boost it provided to Xu Qing was also enormous.

When it was only Level 1, it could only double Xu Qing’s speed of Meditation and practice of the Chaos Sword Dao.

Now,

it could provide a full tenfold boost.

"Go."

First,

Xu Qing took out the Level 10 World Origin Cores one by one. There were 1,080 in total—the entire collection accumulated by the Nine Great Sacred Lands over countless years.

Xu Qing had taken them all.

And,

he had upgraded every single one to Level 10.

Moreover,

it wasn’t that Xu Qing didn’t want to continue upgrading the Level of these World Origin Cores. It was just that his own Realm was only the Sixth Realm. Combined with the fact that the items’ inherent quality was already extremely high, they would become uncontrollable if he upgraded them past Level 10.

Therefore,

Xu Qing had no choice but to stop after reaching Level 10.

A Level 1 World Origin Core looked like a diamond-shaped lump of coal. It was pitch-black all over, without the slightest sheen, looking just like a worthless rock discarded on the side of the road.

Now,

after being upgraded to Level 10,

the World Origin Cores that once resembled black lumps of coal had transformed into black, crystal-like gems that emanated a faint Immortal aura.

Without hesitation,

Xu Qing tossed a Level 10 World Origin Core into the World Pool. With a thought, he activated the Celestial Dao of the Level 42 Beastman Mini World.

RUMBLE!!!

Xu Qing heard a sound like a world turning. The entire world was like an immense machine that, with the addition of terrifying fuel and Power, began to operate at a frantic pace.

Just as he expected,

the Level 42 Beastman Mini World began to absorb the Energy of the Level 10 World Origin Core, and the entire world began a terrifying transformation.

Time flew by.

A day passed in the Profound Yellow Realm.

Under the 400,000-fold time acceleration,

a full 400,000 days passed within the Level 42 Beastman Mini World.

In those 400,000 days,

the Level 42 Beastman Mini World completely absorbed one Level 10 World Origin Core, and its own World Rank was elevated.

Now,

the Level 42 Beastman Mini World had advanced from a ’Middle Grade Fourth-level Grand Thousand World’ to a ’Middle Grade Fifth-level Grand Thousand World,’ rising by one minor level.

"Not bad, not bad."

Xu Qing nodded in satisfaction. "’Then let’s continue.’"

BOOM! BOOM!

Xu Qing took out all one thousand-plus Level 10 World Origin Cores and tossed them into the World Pool. The Celestial Dao began to operate, drawing in the Energy from the Level 10 World Origin Cores. This prompted the entire world to change and transform as its World Rank continued to rise.

This time,

after absorbing the Energy of two Level 10 World Origin Cores, the Level 42 Beastman Mini World underwent another minor transformation, advancing from a ’Middle Grade Fifth-level Grand Thousand World’ to a ’Middle Grade Sixth-level Grand Thousand World.’

"Phew..."

Xu Qing took a deep breath. Feeling the various transformations and changes occurring in the Level 42 Beastman Mini World, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. "’Keep going, keep going...’"

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye,

over a thousand days,

nearly three years, had passed.

The Level 42 Beastman Mini World had completely absorbed all one thousand-plus Level 10 World Origin Cores, undergoing one transformation after another.

Now,

the world under Xu Qing’s control was no longer just a simple Beastman World.

It had completely changed.

Furthermore,

the information displayed by the Encyclopedia of All Things had also changed.

[World of Ten Thousand Races Level 1: 0/10 billion Zi (Originally just an ordinary Beastman Mini World, it has experienced a full forty-two upgrades and transformations to become a ’Middle Grade Fourth-level Grand Thousand World.’ It then absorbed 1,080 World Origin Cores containing Immortal aura, advancing ten minor levels in succession. It also fused with the world information carried within those 1,080 cores, causing the entire world to evolve various different races, and has now reached the level of an ’Upper Grade Fifth-level Grand Thousand World.’)]

"Phew..."

Xu Qing let out a long breath. The original Level 42 Beastman Mini World had transformed into the Level 1 World of Ten Thousand Races. It was truly extraordinary.

Moreover,

with every world advancement, Xu Qing obtained a vast amount of a Grand Thousand World’s Power of Origin, all of which he preserved and stored within his body.

Immediately after,

Xu Qing summoned the Level 10 Twisted Demon God.
