Unrivaled Comprehension: From Mortal to Immortal King

Lin Jiufeng had comprehended two aspects of the Space Dao: Space Transfer and Space Cutting. Though they belonged to different branches, their essence remained the same—both were part of the grand Space Dao. 

Now, Lin Jiufeng sought to master a complete Space Dao. 

Using Space Transfer and Space Cutting as focal points, he immersed himself in comprehending the Space Dao within a time-accelerated environment, where time flowed a hundred times faster. 

"What is space?" Lin Jiufeng pondered deeply. 

He extended his hand, continuously disturbing the space before him. Instantly, the intact space shattered like a fractured mirror, breaking into countless fragments. The shattered regions transformed into chaotic voids until Lin Jiufeng ceased manipulating the Space Dao. Then, the world's natural repair force began to mend the space, restoring it to its original state. 

Lin Jiufeng observed carefully, his expression inscrutable. He felt as if he had grasped something, but it remained elusive. 

Space and Time—both ranked among the top of the Three Thousand Daos, second and third respectively. Their power was immense, but so was the difficulty of comprehending them. 

Yet Lin Jiufeng felt no discouragement. He never expected to grasp a complete Dao in a single attempt. With ample time at his disposal, he had no need to rush. 

If once wasn't enough, he would try a hundred times. 

If a hundred times wasn't enough, he would try ten thousand times. 

Lin Jiufeng possessed boundless patience, focusing entirely on comprehension. 

Within the accelerated flow of time, the small area where Lin Jiufeng resided constantly shattered, cut, and fractured. Lin Jiufeng meticulously observed the subtle differences in each spatial change, recording them all, bit by bit. He believed that with gradual accumulation, the answer would eventually reveal itself. 

Time passed slowly, but Lin Jiufeng continued his quest for understanding. 

The passage of time was elusive and uncontrollable. 

Though Lin Jiufeng remained in his secluded training ground, the sea of flowers surrounding him had already bloomed and withered ten times. 

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

Within the time-accelerated environment, that equated to a thousand years. 

During those thousand years, Lin Jiufeng had attempted Space Cutting a total of one hundred thousand times. Each attempt was unique, and the knowledge he accumulated gradually coalesced within his mind. 

Every insight was like a speck of dust. After one hundred thousand attempts, they had amassed into a small mountain. 

Finally, one day, Lin Jiufeng opened his eyes. 

A line of text appeared before him: 

[Through tenacious diligence, your one hundred thousand attempts and accumulated insights have activated your unparalleled comprehension. You have comprehended a complete Space Cutting Dao!] 

The accumulation of countless efforts now fueled his comprehension, transforming into a complete Dao. 

This new mastery of Space Cutting far surpassed his previous efforts, with power increased by hundreds or even thousands of times. 

As Lin Jiufeng absorbed the complete Space Cutting Dao, a force descended from the heavens, buzzing as it pierced through his body, reaching his mind, and pulling his soul into a vast world. 

This world was boundless, teeming with Daos of all kinds, ever-changing and unfathomable. 

Lin Jiufeng's soul roamed freely within this realm. 

This was the Sea of Daos. 

In the past, only those who had embarked upon the Path of Immortality were granted the privilege of a brief baptism within it. Yet Lin Jiufeng, at the fifteenth seal, had managed to enter. 

His soul, protected by the Ninefold Immortal Diagram, greedily absorbed the surrounding Daos. 

Lin Jiufeng aimed to absorb only the Time Dao. He understood that his time within the Sea of Daos was limited, and with so many Daos present, indiscriminate absorption would yield only mediocrity and squander this precious opportunity. 

He remained steadfast in his purpose: to seek out the Time Dao. 

Having already comprehended a Space Dao, his next goal was to master a complete Time Dao. 

If he could comprehend an entire Time Dao, it would be a tremendous boon. 

Armed with mastery over Space and Time, a body far exceeding his current realm, and a soul shielded by the Ninefold Immortal Diagram, Lin Jiufeng could challenge those in the Mortal Immortal Realm. 

Even if his raw power was inferior, his physical body, soul, and Daos would overwhelm his opponents. 

Layer upon layer of advantage—how could he possibly lose? 

The Sea of Daos contained countless fragments, most of which were fundamental Daos like Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Sun, Moon, Wind, Thunder, Rain, Lightning… 

Rare Daos were hard to find, and those ranked near the top, like the Time Dao, were as elusive as a needle in a haystack. 

Yet Lin Jiufeng remained unfazed, ignoring all other fragments as he sought only the Time Dao. 

The Sea of Daos was immeasurably vast, but Lin Jiufeng's soul, protected by the Ninefold Immortal Diagram, roamed freely without fear of attack from hostile Dao fragments. 

But time within the Sea of Daos was limited. Lin Jiufeng's soul grew heavier, signaling that his time was running out. 

Still, he had found no Time Dao fragment. 

His soul gradually sank to the bottom of the Sea of Daos, surrounded by darkness. 

Just as he was about to give up, a faint green glow emerged from the depths. 

Recognizing the light as the essence of the Time Dao, Lin Jiufeng's soul reached out desperately. 

Boom! 

Lin Jiufeng jolted awake within his cultivation chamber. 

His hand gripped something solid—a green crystal, no larger than his palm, glowing with faint energy. 

"A fragment of the Time Dao!" Lin Jiufeng exclaimed, exhilaration overwhelming him. 

"With this fragment, I can surely comprehend a complete Time Dao." 

With his focus renewed, Lin Jiufeng poured all his energy into comprehending the Time Dao fragment. 

Years passed unnoticed, until finally... 

[Through tireless effort and deep contemplation, you have activated your unparalleled comprehension. You have comprehended a complete Time Dao!] 

[Through the integration of Time and Space, you have activated your unparalleled comprehension. You have created the Sword of Spacetime!] 

The Sword of Spacetime was not a technique, but a singular strike. Yet its power was beyond imagination. 

Boom! 

As Lin Jiufeng mastered the complete Time Dao and the Sword of Spacetime, his cultivation level also began to stir. 

He was on the verge of breaking through to the Sixteenth Seal.
