Unrivaled Comprehension: From Mortal to Immortal King

Having successfully broken through the Fifteen Forbidden, Li Jiufeng opened his inner realm, letting out a sigh of relief. With the upcoming Hundred Races Battle, gaining strength before entering the battle field meant he no longer had any concerns.

In the ancient battlefield of the Hundred Races, as long as he didn't encounter someone who had reached the Human Immortal stage, he would be invincible. This confidence gave Li Jiufeng peace of mind to focus on comprehending the Dao of Time.

After conversing with Taiyuan Immortal for a while, a sudden roar shattered the silence, startling both Li Jiufeng and Taiyuan Immortal.

The roar was deafening, full of vitality and strength. Taiyuan Immortal, astonished, remarked, "Since when did the Holy Beast Kirin enter the Taiyuan Immortal Palace?"

Li Jiufeng, on the other hand, was overjoyed and immediately looked over. Emerging from the palace, a mighty Kirin appeared, its hooves ablaze, its fur dense and flowing as if blown by wind, exuding an imposing aura that rivaled the Fourteen Forbidden.

"Boss!" The Holy Beast Kirin, having emerged from its seclusion, happily called out to Li Jiufeng and quickly bounded over.

Li Jiufeng patted the Kirin's fur, astonished. "How did you break through to the Fourteen Forbidden so suddenly?"

The Kirin chuckled, explaining, "I absorbed the divine source and activated my bloodline. I also activated a trace of energy left by my father, which helped me break through the Fourteen Forbidden. Otherwise, I would have broken through much earlier."

"Your father left you a trace of energy?" Li Jiufeng asked curiously.

"Yes," the Kirin nodded. "Long ago, my father injected a surge of energy into my egg. It's accompanied me as I grew, ready to help me face a future crisis. But since I've been with you, Boss, I haven't encountered a real crisis, so the energy remained dormant until I absorbed it."

"Well, that's a pleasant surprise," Li Jiufeng smiled.

"I thought I would catch up to you after breaking through to the Fourteen Forbidden, but how did you manage to break through to the Fifteen Forbidden?" The Kirin looked at Li Jiufeng's cultivation, feeling a bit disheartened.

Li Jiufeng chuckled. "I'm your boss, of course, I'm stronger. Besides, while you were absorbing bloodline energy, I wasn't resting either."

The Kirin was curious. "What have you been doing during this time? The last thing I remember is that you entered the Taiyuan Immortal Palace at the Yunmeng Marsh. After that, I have no recollection. Who obtained the inheritance of the Taiyuan Immortal Palace?"

Li Jiufeng smiled. "Look back."

The Kirin immediately turned around, and upon seeing what was behind him, he exclaimed, "Is this... the Taiyuan Immortal Palace?"

Li Jiufeng nodded.

"Boss, you got the inheritance from the Taiyuan Immortal Palace?" The Kirin asked in astonishment.

Li Jiufeng nodded and explained everything that had happened over the past period.

The Kirin listened intently, sometimes expressing joy for Li Jiufeng, other times showing anger at the hardships he had faced. When the Kirin heard how Li Jiufeng single-handedly wiped out the combined armies of the Thirteen Races, its eyes widened in disbelief.

"That's too powerful!" The Kirin exclaimed, stunned.

Even Taiyuan Immortal, who had been quietly listening, was shocked. Such an achievement was truly astounding.

But as the Kirin thought about it, it realized that this was the same Boss Li Jiufeng, the one who had always amazed him with his strength. It didn't seem so impossible after all.

"Boss, are you going to participate in the Hundred Races Battle now?" the Kirin asked excitedly.

"Yes," Li Jiufeng nodded.

"I'll go with you. My talents and abilities are much stronger now, and I've also comprehended more of the Dao of Space," the Kirin eagerly said.

"Really?" Li Jiufeng was surprised, looking at the Kirin.

The Kirin didn't respond directly. Instead, it narrowed its pupils and released an invisible force. Instantly, Li Jiufeng felt the space around him freeze.

He didn't avoid it or try to break free but instead calmly experienced it.

The space power was vastly stronger than when the Kirin first demonstrated it.

Before, the Kirin needed three seconds to activate its space power, and it could only restrain beings of the same realm for those three seconds. If the opponent was stronger, the effect would weaken.

Now, however, Li Jiufeng clearly felt that with the Kirin's breakthrough to the Fourteen Forbidden, the power of its space technique had increased significantly. Although it still took three seconds to hold someone, it was much stronger. Even Li Jiufeng, at his current level, needed a fraction of a second to break free. Anyone at the same level would be trapped without any chance of escape.

As for an enemy at the Fifteen Forbidden level, the Kirin's ability could still restrain them for three seconds.

Li Jiufeng tested the space binding power and was impressed. He didn't think that an enemy at the Fifteen Forbidden level would be able to break free so easily.

After the three seconds passed, Li Jiufeng regained his freedom. The Kirin eagerly asked, "Boss, how was my talent power?"

Li Jiufeng nodded. "It's greatly improved. You're now fearless against Fifteen Forbidden cultivators. From now on, you'll use this ability on me every day."

Li Jiufeng was thinking about how to further comprehend the Dao of Space. After all, his Space Teleportation technique had been learned from the Kirin, and now that the Kirin's space ability had grown stronger, perhaps he could learn more.

Even if it didn't work the first time, he could try again, again, and again, as many times as needed.

"Okay." The Kirin eagerly agreed. After all, the ability wasn't very tiring to use, only requiring an hour of cooldown.

Hearing the conversation between Li Jiufeng and the Kirin, Taiyuan Immortal smiled and stroked his beard. "I didn't expect you to gain such a powerful friend as a Holy Beast Kirin. Truly a great stroke of luck and opportunity."

Li Jiufeng and the Kirin both looked at Taiyuan Immortal.

"Is there any special significance to this?" Li Jiufeng asked curiously.

"Do you know," Taiyuan Immortal said slowly, "in the Immortal Realm, there are very few Holy Beast Kirins left, so each one is incredibly precious. Major powers in the world would go to great lengths to obtain one. The fact that you met one in the mortal world is indeed a rare opportunity."

"Why are there so few of us?" The Kirin couldn't help asking.

Taiyuan Immortal's expression turned solemn. "The exact reason is unknown, but it seems connected to a great battle. The Taiyuan Immortal Emperor didn't pass these memories onto me, so I can only share what little I know. From what I understand, it's linked to the dimensional battlefield."

"The dimensional battlefield?" Li Jiufeng exclaimed.

The Kirin also stared, both of them intrigued. What was the connection?
