Chapter 1037: Finally Achieving Sainthood!

However, after a while, the middle-aged man withdrew his gaze, frowned, and muttered to himself, “He actually managed to evade my Heavenly Dao Divine Eye!”
“Never mind. It’s just a minor Hunyuan Supreme Realm level. One more or one less doesn’t make a difference!”
“Qing Cang should be on the verge of achieving sainthood as well. It’s rare that he has endured for so many eras, building up strength before acting. This time, he should be able to break through to the middle stage of Hunyuan Supreme Realm in one go!”
Soon, the palace fell into silence.
In the Great Xuanhuang World, the Great Ten Thousand Demons World, the Great Chaotic Monsters World, the Great Infinite World, and other major worlds, the saints who had achieved enlightenment also used their divine powers to try and discover who had achieved enlightenment this time, but to no avail—they couldn’t find out!
Even the saints of the Great Wei Long World did the same.
Outside the Thirty-Three Heavens in the PanGu World, a palace floated in the air. On top of the palace was the name “Zixiao Palace”—this was the palace where Hongjun, the current supreme being of the PanGu World, practiced!
Inside Zixiao Palace, an old man with silver hair and a gray robe kept calculating using his fingers. Above his head, a fist-sized pearl emitted a grayish aura. This was one of PanGu’s innate treasures—the Chaos Pearl.
“Strange. How is this person related to my PanGu World?” Hongjun pondered. Like the other saints, he couldn’t see who had achieved enlightenment this time, but he could vaguely sense that this person had some connection to the PanGu World.
“Related to the PanGu World?” Hongjun frowned.
In the end, he shook his head and gave up on guessing.
Meanwhile, in the Great Wei Long World, deep beneath the Yellow Dragon Hall of the Golden Dragon clan, inside the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron, the Yellow Dragon’s entire body glowed with light, surrounded by countless celestial dragons that circled around it. The dragons roared loudly, singing in honor of the saint about to be born.
The entire space of the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron was filled with brilliant colors and radiant light. Suddenly, the Yellow Dragon opened its eyes.
Wherever the Yellow Dragon looked, everything seemed to transform into dragons. As its gaze moved, divine dragons appeared, and barriers composed of golden scales formed one after another.
The Yellow Dragon itself underwent a tremendous transformation—changes that were impossible to describe clearly. It felt as though it were the sky, the earth, an entire world, and the ruler of that world, the master of all existence!
With a flip of its hand, it could create clouds; with another, it could summon rain. The world would change with every move it made. The Yellow Dragon felt as though its soul had merged with the universe, forming a subtle connection—it was now a part of the universe itself!

Reaching enlightenment and becoming a saint, the soul is entrusted to the Way of Heaven—immortal and indestructible!
“I have finally achieved enlightenment and become a saint, reaching the realm of Hunyuan Immortality!” Huang Long couldn’t help but roar in excitement. At this moment, after striving in both his past life and this life, he had finally attained enlightenment!
The realm of Hunyuan Immortality was no longer just a dream!
A while later, Huang Long regained his composure and continued to practice his cultivation techniques, absorbing the power contained within that drop of the Saint King’s essence blood.
For his breakthrough, Huang Long only absorbed a small portion of the power from that drop of Saint King’s essence blood.
As time passed, his strength continued to grow. Gradually, he stabilized at the early stage of the Hunyuan Supreme Realm! Then, he reached the peak of the early stage!
Suddenly one day, Huang Long’s entire body trembled as he felt another transformation in the world around him—reaching the middle stage of the Hunyuan Supreme Realm!
Finally, when he reached the peak of the middle stage of the Hunyuan Supreme Realm, he stopped completely.
Back in the Ancient Dragon Ruins, Huang Long had absorbed and refined the Thousand-Faced Heavenly Mother, which should have allowed him to sever his three corpses and achieve enlightenment as a saint. Yet he didn’t do so. Later, he killed nearly ten powerful dragon beasts from the Twelve Eras within the Ancient Dragon Ruins and refined them one by one.
Huang Long’s accumulation had reached an astonishing level. Now, with the help of this drop of Saint King’s essence blood from the Hunyuan Unity Realm, he finally made a breakthrough from the early stage of the Hunyuan Supreme Realm to the peak of the middle stage!
Although this was slightly different from what Huang Long had expected for the later stage of the Hunyuan Supreme Realm, he was still quite satisfied. After all, achieving the peak of the middle stage in one go was already no small feat.
“However, with my powerful true body, my strength should be comparable to those at the later stage of the Hunyuan Supreme Realm!” Huang Long thought to himself.
That was because he had practiced the Supreme Transformation Technique, making his true body far stronger than saints of the same rank!
“Now that I have achieved enlightenment as a saint, the next step is to elevate my true body to the King class!” Huang Long mused.
“Luo Xin Black Iron, Tian Yi Divine Stone, Infinite Golden Light Stone, Immortal Yuan Conch Wood!” Huang Long murmured. All he needed now were these four materials to ascend to the King class.
“I wonder if Long Cheng has gathered them all?”
Before entering seclusion, Huang Long had asked Long Cheng, the young clan leader of the Golden Dragon clan, to keep an eye on these four materials and collect them for him. After all these years, it was possible they had already been gathered!
“It’s time to emerge from seclusion!” Huang Long stood up from high above the Heavenly Sacred Cauldron, sensing the changes in the Sea of Souls and his own true body, and felt deeply moved.
Now, when he looked at this world, this universe, everything seemed different.
With a flash, Huang Long left the Heavenly Sacred Cauldron, took it back into his body, and then arrived on the ground of the Huang Long Palace. There, he sent a message to summon Long Cheng.

When Long Cheng saw Huang Long again, he was surprised. He noticed that Huang Long seemed to have changed—just sitting there casually, he exuded an aura of supreme power. However, he didn’t think that Huang Long had already achieved sainthood. He simply assumed that Huang Long’s strength had increased again. “Congratulations, Supreme Elder, on your further improvement in strength!” Long Cheng said with a smile. Huang Long smiled back without clarifying anything and instead asked, “How are things with those four materials I asked you to find back then?” “I’ve found the Black Iron of the Heart of Chaos, the Divine Stone of Heaven One, and the Infinite Golden Light Stone. But…” Long Cheng paused before continuing, “I still can’t find the Immortal Essence Spiral Wood!” With that, he took out the three materials mentioned. Huang Long didn’t move, and those three materials appeared before him, surprising Long Cheng. “Only the Immortal Essence Spiral Wood is missing?” Huang Long mused. “Don’t worry, Supreme Elder. Although I haven’t found it yet, I’ve already learned about it. It exists in the Pangu Great World. I’ll send someone there to retrieve it!” Long Cheng replied. “Oh, the Pangu Great World?!” Huang Long raised his head, his expression unusual. “That’s right!” Long Cheng nodded. “In that case, Long Cheng, you needn’t look any further. I’ll go myself!” Huang Long said. “Yes, Supreme Elder!” With a voice filled with an aura that made people submit, Huang Long spoke, and Long Cheng instinctively agreed. Then, Huang Long gave Long Cheng twenty top-quality spiritual veins, along with some innate spiritual artifacts and ten thousand Fire Spirit Ice Flame Pills ranked eleventh, as compensation for the Ten Thousand Luo Divine Water and the effort spent searching for those three materials. Long Cheng accepted them with joy. After a while, Long Cheng took his leave. Once he was gone, Huang Long stood up and muttered to himself, “The Pangu Great World? Good. I might as well take the chance to visit Erxian Mountain too!” That place where he had practiced in his past life!
