“Your help has been of tremendous assistance.”

Jiang Yuan smiled, “The Dean is being too modest! The successful pioneering of the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform is enough to make the Dean’s name live on in ancient history. In the distant future, the Dean’s brilliance might even catch up to the likes of the Daoist Ancestor and the Heavenly Emperor!”

Dugu Bo immediately let out a hearty laugh.

“If you ask me, you are the one most likely to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Daoist Ancestor and the Heavenly Emperor!”

“As long as you can take the next step in the Flesh Body Path!”

Jiang Yuan smiled, “That will have to wait until I reach the pinnacle of the Human Path like the Dean and successfully pioneer the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform! I have plenty of time in the future, and I am confident that I can figure out the next step.”

Dugu Bo nodded vigorously, “I have no doubt about that! When that time comes, the name of the Holy Institute will surely be passed down through the ages, never to be forgotten by future generations.”

At this point, Dugu Bo became profoundly emotional.

“As for the most correct thing I’ve done in my life, that would be bringing you into the Holy Institute!”

“Without that, how could I have ever reached the pinnacle of the Human Path and attained the Supreme Dao Fruits.”

“Let alone successfully pioneer the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform and be endowed with the stature of a Dual Supreme.”

Then he continued,
“However, speaking of that, the Flesh Body Path demands too much from the physical body!”

“Even with my holy body, it’s quite challenging. In the whole Holy Institute now, aside from me, probably only you might be able to pioneer the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform!”

“Looking across the Four Seas and Five Domains, in the entire world, perhaps only you and I can achieve this.”

Jiang Yuan said, “The Dean need not worry; as long as this proves to be a Path to Heaven, the correct path!”

“Eventually, this path can be perfected, becoming a path that everyone may cultivate.”

Hearing Jiang Yuan’s words, Dugu Bo suddenly aspired.

“If there really comes such a day, perhaps then the Holy Institute can truly become the foremost academy in the world, giving rise to a constant stream of unparalleled powerhouses!”

Jiang Yuan smiled slightly, very affirmatively, “There will come a day like that!!”

Dugu Bo smiled, “What are your plans for what comes next?”

Stroking his chin, Jiang Yuan pondered a moment, and after a few breaths,
“Now that the Dean has successfully pioneered the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform, ascending a step in strength, I plan to transcend into sainthood in the outer star space soon.”

Hearing this, Dugu Bo nodded slightly, “No problem! Give me a little more time, and my strength will surely leap forward, and even if I can’t slay a true immortal, I will be able to restrain them.”

“Even if your transcendence into a Saint attracts a true immortal, I will ensure your complete safety.”

Jiang Yuan clasped his hands, “Then I will rely on the Dean for my safety during my transcendence!”

Dugu Bo laughed heartily, “It is only natural; speaking of help, what you have done for me is far greater. Without you, how would I have stepped into the pinnacle of the Human Path, let alone successfully pioneer the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform.”

Upon hearing these words, Jiang Yuan smiled again, then spoke.

“At most, it can only be said that the Dean and I have helped each other achieve greatness. Without the Dean, there would be no Jiang Yuan today.”

As the words fell, the two looked at each other and laughed heartily.

Laughing!

In his hand, Dugu Bo flashed a green light, and a jar of fine wine appeared instantly.

“I am in a very good mood today, let’s drink heartily together.”

Jiang Yuan took the jar of fine wine from Dugu Bo.

“In such a golden age, it’s fitting to drink to our hearts’ content. Today, neither I nor the Dean shall return until we are drunk!”

“Till no one is sober!” Dugu Bo’s hand flashed again, another jar of fine wine appearing, gently clinking against the one in Jiang Yuan’s hand.

“Come, drink up!” he said once more.

“Drink up!” Jiang Yuan echoed.

…

This time, the drinking went from daylight to night, and from night back to daylight.

Wine jars were scattered all over the ground. Although Jiang Yuan did not ask what wine these jars contained, he could tell that it must be extremely fine wine.

Sweet and refreshing upon entering the mouth, the aftertaste, endless; fragrance permeating in all directions.

But Dugu Bo showed not the slightest sign of heartache, instead, he kept laughing heartily.

He also told Jiang Yuan a lot about his rise, the hardships he endured while exclusively researching the Flesh Body Path.

He shared with Jiang Yuan the ambition and pride of his youth and the slight regret buried deep in his heart.

“`
At this moment, Dugu Bo was undoubtedly extremely happy.

Jiang Yuan could sense it and deeply understood.

As a Dual Supreme, his lifespan increased by tens of thousands of years, and his strength reached the skies, promising a future full of possibilities.

Naturally, this was a matter of great joy.

Soon after, news of Dugu Bo’s successful pioneering of the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform in this small courtyard spread, leaving a glorious mark in the long river of history.

He had advanced the Flesh Body Path to a level equivalent to the pinnacle of the Human Realm.

In such a case, this path could be considered to have achieved initial perfection.

However, there was a significant flaw, that one needed to be qualified to obtain the Supreme Dao Fruits and the primordial spirit must make the ultimate leap to pioneer the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform.

This was considered the biggest flaw of this path.

It was equivalent to needing to become a Supreme before one could pioneer the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform.

But even so, it was still a creation that broke historical boundaries and was naturally enough to be immortalized in history.

Jiang Yuan believed that in the future, as it was perfected, there would naturally be other methods to achieve this step without first needing to be qualified to prove oneself a Supreme.

And if this path could be advanced further, that would truly be a great success.

Entering the Immortal Land, yet possessing the strength of a true immortal within the Immortal Path Domain.

That was an event capable of overturning the situation of the world.

One must know, ever since the separation of Heaven and Earth, the realms of humans and immortals were divided.

With no hope for the Immortal Dao, the highest boundary in the human path became the Supreme Realm.

No matter how peerless and invincible one was in the world, it was the same; they could not become immortal.

However, if the next step on the Flesh Body Path was taken, then even in the Mortal World, within the Five Domains and Four Seas, in this vast universe, one would be akin to becoming immortal, possessing the strength of a true immortal from the Immortal Path Domain.

In that case, what would it matter if one couldn’t become immortal?

After pioneering the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform, Dugu Bo underwent a transformation in life level, and the origin of his life was also strengthened; it wouldn’t take long for him to possess a lifespan of around twenty thousand years.

Breaking the limit of the Supreme’s ten thousand years of lifespan.

This was enough to prove that the path of the Flesh Body was correct.

Taking one more step forward, the level of life would inevitably rise substantially, and the lifespan might also experience a surge.

If one truly reached that step, then the goal of the people of the world would no longer be to become immortal.

Not to mention, with the current great changes in the environment of Heaven and Earth, people had also lost the pathway to immortality.

…

After leaving the Holy Institute.

It was already the following day.

Jiang Yuan looked back at the gates of the Holy Institute.

When he returned here next time, it would be the moment he proved his way and became a Saint.

Before leaving, he had thoroughly discussed everything with Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo needed some time to accumulate and settle.

Moreover, the transformation from within to without after opening up the Secret Realm of the Spiritual Platform was not over, and he was not in a hurry to skip this process, wanting to profoundly understand every bit of change within himself.

He himself also had many things to do.

Although he could easily make a breakthrough and prove his way to becoming a Saint now,
it was clearly not the right moment.

To Transcend Tribulation and become a Saint in the outer star space, he needed to have sufficient accumulation.

To elevate each Great Dao to a state that satisfied him.

Especially the Devouring Great Dao and the Space Great Dao.

The Devouring Great Dao concerned the efficiency with which he harvested Dao Fruits.

On that day, the Bloody Star Space would be inevitable; countless demon saints would fall outside the realm. If the Devouring Great Dao did not undergo a qualitative change, how could he quickly harvest Dao Fruits, allowing himself to rapidly break through boundaries?

And the Space Great Dao concerned his combat strength and ability to survive.

Furthermore, the Great Void Palmprint and Sword Opening Heaven and Earth, these two offensive techniques, were greatly related to the Space Great Dao.
