The Strongest Conquest System

Chapter 57: Breakthrough Mania Part 3

......

Even the very air around Azmond's breakthrough location was starting to dissipate from the amount of Qi traffic that came through because of his breakthroughs.

'The air around here really will start to collapse if I don't change my breakthrough spot for next time...' He thought to himself with a small, wry smile.

Azmond wanted to change his breakthrough spot right now, but it was too late as the 14th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation was already right in front of his face.

He no longer even had the privilege of speaking out loud, let alone retaining control over his ability to move...

...

'This breakthrough is going to be the biggest one yet. The 14th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation must be another major milestone in the Qi Condensation Realm,' Azmond thought with a brooding expression.

'It must have another name for it just like the 13th Stage of Heavenly Qi Condensation, right? It should also come with the complete comprehension of some sort of evolved version of the Heavenly Gate as well.'

He pondered to himself for a moment as the Qi within hundreds of miles was invading his body and destroying it from the inside out.

However, Azmond could care less about the pain that he had already gotten used to over the years.

He was a certified veteran in the Masochistic for Power Gain department...

On a side note, Azmond had no clue about the realms that come after the 13th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation.

He originally assumed that the 14th stage of Quantum Qi Condensation would be his last stage because he had never heard of the Divine Realm that lay between the Heavenly and Quantum Realms.

Who could blame him, though? Azmond got most of his knowledge about cultivation from the Divine Devil Art Scripture, which he didn't even have full access to.

His other source of information was from a silly blue-haired girl who told him of the realms the cultivators of Asterion needed to tread on to reach the peak.

...

"..."

Azmond soon realized that the 14th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation was not his final destination in the Qi Condensation Realm when he reached the peak of the 13th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation.

The moment he reached that point, he felt something...

It was something hard to explain, but Azmond knew it was there.

It was a feeling...

A feeling that the 14th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation would not be his limit as long as he was able to survive his breakthrough.

It was a feeling that also made him realize that there was yet another talent realm gap after the Heavenly Qi Condensation Realm.

At this point, you would think that Azmond would realize how much of a monstrous freak he was for going above and beyond and even surpassing the Divine Realm talent chasm.

But No...

Azmond was still as dense as he could be when it came to his freakishness.

He completely ignored the part of their being the Divine Realm before his Quantum Realm and instead focused his attention on their maybe being another realm after the Quantum Realm that he just wasn't talented enough to reach.

His way of thinking about this topic was something like, 'Well, I bet the cultivators in the Heavenly and Divine Qi Condensation Realms have no clue about their being the Quantum Realm above them.'

'What if I am unaware of what is beyond me, just like them??'

Azmond had a very 'unique' mindset...

...

'... I guess I am not talented enough, huh...?'

A slight look of disappointment emerged on Azmond's face as he thought of the imaginary realm that slipped past his fingers because he wasn't talented enough.

However, his downcast expression quickly disappeared as he regained his past resolve, almost like it never left in the first place.

'...If I can't acquire a higher realm now, then I just need to work harder... It's quite simple once I really start to think about it!' Azmond thought with a resolute gleam flashing past his eyes.

'I just need to work hard enough till I am able to reach whatever higher realms are beyond the Quantum Realm!'

He had completely lost it in his thirst for more power...

...

'Though, I still need to get past this pesky breakthrough before I reach beyond my current capabilities...'

After realizing this fact, his mood soured a little and worsened when he felt the Qi in the air start to materialize into some weird phenomenon.

BZZZTT!

'It looks like those bastards are trying to mess with me again,' Azmond thought with an irritated expression.

*Tsk!* 'Can't they just mind their own business and continue doing whatever clowns do when they're bored?? Why must they get in my way so much?' He clicked his tongue as he became slightly annoyed at the mysterious beings playing with his fate.

...

4 days later...

Azmond succeeded in breaking through to the 14th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation.

He was launched into a couple of mountains during the breakthrough, but he managed to do it nonetheless.

'Only one more minor realm till I reach the peak of what I can currently achieve in the Quantum Qi Condensation Realm.' A bloody corpse floated out of a deep hole as he thought to himself with an indifferent expression.

"This breakthrough was far more difficult to get through than my breakthrough into the 13th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation," Azmond muttered.

'Great power comes with great prices, and it looks like that stands true even in the world of cultivation,' he thought.

A small smile formed on Azmond's chiseled features as he took a look at the gains he got from this breakthrough into what would normally be the 14th Stage of Divine Qi Condensation for Divine Qi Condensation Cultivators.

"My physical strength and energy output are firmly at the peak of the Middle Nascent Soul Realm, as it looks like this breakthrough wasn't enough to allow me to cross the gap between the Middle Nascent Soul Realm and the Late Nascent Soul Realm, but no matter."

Azmond's apathetic expression came back as he looked at his 14000 Qi Cyclones orbiting around his Dantian.

"I still have plenty of ways to increase my power even further... The 15th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation is in front of me, and these 14000 Qi Cyclones as well." He spoke to himself as he gazed at the 14,000 miniature gas planets floating around inside his Dantian space.

"Although my Qi cyclones don't directly impact my combat strength, they do increase my energy capacity by many times for each breakthrough I have achieved in the Quantum Qi condensation realm."

It was a fact that allowed for Azmond to fight for far longer than other cultivators at the Middle Stages of the Nascent Soul Realm!
