The huge Blood God Cult became empty, and everyone gathered at the top of Qianyuan Mountain, including Du Mosheng, Pei Linhu, He Yuan and other demonic monks who had surrendered.

Previously, the Dark Demon Realm was coming fiercely, but for whatever reason, Du Mosheng and others did not back down and performed quite well, which made Zhang Ruochen quite satisfied.

Now that the Blood God Sect is employing people, Zhang Ruochen plans to train the three of them well. The three of them are bound by the Blood God's curse seal and are absolutely loyal, so they can safely invest various resources in them.

Du Mosheng practiced the Demon Swallowing God Picture, which happened to be one of the four stone carvings of the Heavenly Demon collected by the Blood God Sect. Pei Linhu practiced the Picture of the Howling Tiger of the Heavenly Demon, which was also in the hands of Zhang Ruochen, but through a gambling battle.

Won from the Dark Demon Realm.

The Black Demon Realm had just obtained the authentic work of the Heavenly Demon Tiger Roaring Picture not long ago, so Pei Linhu had not yet had time to understand it. If he had not surrendered to the Blood God Cult, he would have been destined to miss this Heavenly Demon Stone Carving.

For the monks who practice the Demonic Stone Carvings, the significance of directly comprehending the authentic relics is extremely huge. Only by comprehending the authentic relics can they hope to cultivate the powerful world-destroying demonic energy.

He Yuan is a monk in the Shadow Demon Realm. Although he is not practicing the Heavenly Demon Stone Carving, Zhang Ruochen has a Heavenly Demon Stone Carving in his hand, which is very consistent with the demonic skills he practices. This is also the reason why he agreed to cooperate with Pei Linhu and others in the first place.

Being able to be cultivated by Zhang Ruochen, Du Mosheng, Pei Linhu and He Yuan were naturally very excited. They were secretly glad that they had made a wise choice, which not only saved their lives, but also received such good treatment.

In the second year of his retreat, Zhang Ruochen's cultivation reached the peak of the Dao Realm. The number of Holy Dao rules in his body reached one thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine, with only one missing.

You can reach 20 million Dao, and if you successfully condense it, you can enter the realm of heaven.

However, Zhang Ruochen has encountered a bottleneck after his cultivation has reached this point, and he cannot break through in one go like before.

The realm of receiving heaven is no small matter, it is to attract the power of heaven and earth into the body, temper the form and spirit, and prepare for the subsequent casting of the immortal body.

After most people reach the peak of the Lin Dao realm, they need to accumulate for a long time, and then rely on their accumulation to break through to the Heaven Realm.

Like Du Mosheng, Pei Linhu and He Yuan, the time it took to reach the peak of the Dao Realm was not short, but they were always stuck at the bottleneck, and they were not sure when they would be able to break through.

However, now that they have the opportunity to comprehend the Heavenly Demon Stone Carvings, they may be able to find an opportunity to break through in their cultivation.

"It seems that I only focused on increasing the quantity of Holy Dao rules in the past, but did not pay attention to quality, and this buried hidden dangers. Of the nearly 20 million Holy Dao rules in my body, 70% were obtained by meditating and cultivating one hundred thousand small paths.

The proportion is too large.”

Zhang Ruochen frowned and quickly found the problem.

With Zhang Ruochen's basic qualifications, if the rules of the holy way are strong enough, the Heaven Connecting Realm will not become a bottleneck and he can easily break through.

Since returning to the Kunlun Realm, Zhang Ruochen has faced an endless stream of powerful enemies and has been under great pressure. He has had to find ways to quickly improve his strength.

In comparison, it is undoubtedly the fastest to comprehend the Hundred Thousand Little Paths and add the rules of the Holy Path.

As a result, as his cultivation level improved, the proportion of small path rules in Zhang Ruochen's body became larger and larger, which was already difficult to reverse.

The most troublesome thing is that once the rules of the holy way are cultivated, it is not only impossible but also extremely difficult to change them.

"All the rules of the Holy Dao in my body are extremely tightly integrated. If I rashly extract some of them, problems will easily arise, and the Tongtian River will inevitably collapse."

Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but feel a headache and felt helpless.

The rules of the holy way can be forcibly extracted from the body, but if you do so rashly, the consequences will be very serious. If you are not careful, you will destroy your future and the path of cultivation will end.

But if this problem is not solved, as the controller of time and space, the time it will take for Zhang Ruochen to break through to the Heaven Realm will definitely not be short, which will also be a huge trouble.

Many thoughts flashed through Zhang Ruochen's mind, thinking of various ways. This was just a small twist in his cultivation path. If he couldn't solve it, how could he become a god?

"This method may work."

Zhang Ruochen whispered, reaching out and gently touching the Vulcan armor on his body.

The next moment, he mobilized all the secrets of truth in his body, mixed the holy energy, and injected it into the Vulcan Armor.

A large number of mysterious patterns suddenly appeared on the surface of the Vulcan armor, and terrifying flames rose up.

With the help of the thirty-nine percent truth, Zhang Ruochen undoubtedly further inspired the power of the Vulcan Armor.

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen extracted the ten rules of the Holy Path from Tongtian River and emerged outside his body.

These rules of the holy way are all small rules. They look very delicate, and the power they contain is also very weak.

Zhang Ruochen placed these ten rules of the holy way in the flames and burned them carefully.

The Vulcan Armor is left behind by the former Vulcan. The divine fire contained within it is extremely terrifying and can burn all living things.

It didn't take too long before a trail of rules showed signs of dissolving.

Zhang Ruochen had a solemn expression and carefully controlled the flames released by the Vulcan Armor, allowing the ten small rules to merge with each other.

It is obviously not easy to accomplish this. If it is not done well, these ten rules of the holy path will be destroyed.

"Bang."

A rule of the holy way exploded into pieces and dissipated directly into nothingness.

Involuntarily, Zhang Ruochen's expression became solemn, but he did not stop because of this, he just looked more cautious.

But even so, these ten rules of the Holy Path still exploded one after another and disappeared into thin air.

"Come again."

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Ruochen once again extracted ten small rules from the Tongtian River.

Just like before, he was still burning with the flames released by the Vulcan Armor.

Unfortunately, the result this time is still the same as before.

However, Zhang Ruochen obviously had no intention of giving up. After a pause, he started again.

In this way, hundreds of consecutive attempts were made and thousands of Holy Path rules were lost, so that even the Tianhe River experienced slight vibrations and became slightly unstable.

Finally, combined with the experience summarized time and time again, the rules of the small path showed signs of merging, and the ten rules merged into one, turning into an incomplete and strong rule.

Seeing this, Zhang Ruochen did not hesitate, and immediately summoned dozens more rules of the holy way from his body and smelted them in the same way.

In this process, Zhang Ruochen used his mental power to the extreme and clearly grasped every detail.

After a long time, a relatively thick rule of the holy way appeared in the blazing flames. It was completely different in nature.

Seeing this brand new rule of the Holy Path, Zhang Ruochen suddenly smiled and said, "It is finally worth losing thousands of rules of the Holy Path. Thirty-three small rules of the Holy Path are merged into one great rule. Although this method is difficult,

But it does work.”

The ancient way, the supreme holy way, the great road and the small road have extremely wonderful connections with each other.

The Nine Eternal Ways are the most fundamental Ways, which give rise to the seventy-two Supreme Holy Ways, and then to the Three Thousand Great Ways and the One Hundred Thousand Little Ways.

On the contrary, dozens of small roads of the same type can be restored to form a great road.

If we continue to deduce, dozens of avenues of the same type can theoretically form one supreme holy path.

Of course, although this is the theory, it is extremely difficult to actually do it.

From what Zhang Ruochen thought about, it would probably only work if the small roads merged into the main road, and there was no need to think about the rest.

"Next, I will do my best to merge the rules of the small road into the rules of the big road, and fundamentally solve the hidden dangers."

Now that he has found a solution, Zhang Ruochen naturally wants to complete the matter as quickly as possible.

Integrating rules is not an easy task and requires extreme care. Even if you find the trick, it will be difficult to achieve efficiency quickly.

As the number of rules in the trail decreases, Zhang Ruochen will undoubtedly be able to cultivate more powerful rules.

In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.

The minor rules in Zhang Ruochen's body were reduced by 7 million, and merged into more than 200,000 major rules.

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen also cultivated another three million powerful rules of the Holy Way in the past ten years. The total number of rules of the Holy Way in his body is more than 16 million, but it has not caused any regression in his cultivation.

Now calculated, there are less than 7 million small Tao rules in Zhang Ruochen's body, accounting for 40% of the total number.

At this point, Zhang Ruochen stopped and no longer continued to integrate the rules of the trail.

It is impossible for any monk not to have the existence of minor Tao rules, which are an important foundation and indispensable.

"Next, practice according to this ratio. If the number of small path rules is smaller, Tongtian River will become unstable."

Zhang Ruochen whispered, he already knew what he would do in the future.

Although the total number of rules has been reduced, the scale of Tongtian River has become significantly larger.

There is no other reason. There are more strong and powerful rules in Tongtian River, and the power contained is far more powerful than before.

With the current power of Tongtian River, if we mobilize the rules of heaven and earth and the power of heaven and earth, both the scope and quantity will be greatly increased.

Correspondingly, Zhang Ruochen's own strength actually rose instead of falling.

As long as he raises his cultivation to the peak of the Dao Realm again, his strength will definitely be greatly improved.

However, Zhang Ruochen also discovered a problem, that is, any kind of holy way rules, when the total number reaches more than 500,000, it will become very difficult to continue to increase.

The largest number of holy rules in Zhang Ruochen's body are the rules of swordsmanship. Before the retreat, he had already reached 700,000 rules, which can be said to be a very remarkable achievement.

This retreat lasted almost twelve years, and the rules of kendo increased by about 70,000. Zhang Ruochen's understanding of kendo became more and more profound, and he became more confident in creating his own unique swordsmanship.

After the adjustment of the rules of the holy way in his body was completed, Zhang Ruochen once again devoted himself wholeheartedly to his cultivation. He wanted to improve his cultivation and at the same time complete the four goals he set before retreating.

In the fifteenth year of seclusion, Du Mosheng broke through the bottleneck and broke through to the realm of heaven as he wished.

More importantly, the blood-sea demonic energy in Du Mosheng's body transformed. At the moment of breakthrough, the first ray of world-destroying demonic energy appeared in his body.

After more than a year, Pei Linhu and He Yuan successively broke through to the Heaven Realm. However, they were not as lucky as Du Mosheng. They didn't know how long they would have to wait before they could hope to cultivate the world-destroying demonic energy.

"Uh-huh."
